The Sonic For Hire Saga... So Far 

Who stuck around for the sneak peak at the end? (Everyone skips to the end)

I remember as a kid, downloading all the sonic for hires, editing them into a continuous video and uploading it so I could watch it all in one sitting, only for it to be immediately copyright struck lmao.

The fact this series has lasted years and still holds up is such a testament.

Whats funny is that Sega actually purchased the company that owns Angry Birds.... So ...

Soniqua is probably my favorite fan character ever created. She definitely carries the show for me.

I can't believe this series is less than 4 hours long. It feels much more longer and bigger in general. Truly majestic, like a crack rock the size of a fist.

I remember watching this when I was younger and almost all of the jokes flew over my head. It truly deserves so much more appreciation now that I can understand the jokes.

0:04 Season 1 18:53 Season 2 41:01 Season 3 1:08:00 Season 4 1:34:27 Season 5 2:02:08 Season 6 2:33:35 Season 7 3:17:03 Season 8 3:44:09 Season 9 teaser

What’s incredible is this series ended but when revived it didn’t miss a beat. It’s just as good as it was.

Y'know, everyone calls Sonic an asshole in this, but throughout the whole series he still genuinely cares about his friends. Like Eggman, Tails, and Mario, have all screwed him over at least twice but he doesn't hold any grudge past that specific season (besides Tails in season 4)

One of the best web series ever made. Seriously underrated. (Edit for those who got angry at me for saying this for some reason): To add context to my comment here, this series when it was released. It was released in like 2010 by a side channel of the defunct channel Machinima, and the viewership from what I remember was never extremely high despite the quality of the shows animation for a RU-vid show at the time (Some episodes would struggle to hit 100K again, from what I remember but I could be wrong, but I always felt the numbers were low), this was due in part to how Machinima ran it's channel and it's contributors (The Machinima channel is a rabbit hole in of itself for bad ethics toward content creators). There was also a long period of time, where when the only way you could really watch this show was from re-uploads. And then a really bizarre twist when RoosterTeeth picked up the show for like one season after a pretty long time of inactivity which was the last season to air. I imagine this had something to do with contractual obligations (And why the show was switched to Hedgehog for Hire as it's title) that LowBrow couldn't upload this series sooner, and why the Machinima logo can still be seen in some episodes, because they are the only versions that basically survived all of this. It's just my opinion and this is all speculation, but that's why I think it's under-rated. The viewership it's getting now is what it deserved over 10 years ago and never received, even after all the BS the show and LowBrow had to go through.

2:24:07 is my favorite moment of this collection. Sounds so sincere 😂

1:35:32 I cannot explain the terror that entered my soul as I hear his voice. The fucking echoey filter on it made me think someone was in my house and I lost my shit

I was literally rewatching the seasons this morning, so this is a godsend! Here are some timestamps 00:12 Season 1 18:53 Season 2 41:03 Season 3 1:08:01 Season 4 1:34:27 Season 5 2:02:08 Season 6 2:33:35 Season 7 3:17:03 Season 8 3:44:08 Coming Soon: Season 9

I literally forgot why I always say “Avocado” the way I do to this day. And it’s because of this series. So glad I found this today after all this time

Who doesnt enjoy many blue jeans?

Ahhh, the 2000's and early 2010's, a time where jokes were...so...immensely freakin' crass. Some of these are DEFINITELY dated lmao, but honestly, this whole series is a case of winners with the odd stinkers, and its nice to catch up on it again. Excellent work, everyone :)

This series was way funnier than it had any right to be. It's nice to come back and re-visit it after such a long while as an adult.

This is one of my favorite childhood youtube series, it taught me so much. How to cuss, how to rob a bank, how to become a mob boss. Things a 10 year old should know

This was super nostalgic. I've watched this series for 7 years and counting, and it's still just as funny as the first time

I remember wayyyyy back when I was younger watching this, then a few years later it was gone, then a few years after that it was on RT with a new season. And now I’m here. After so many rewatches and countless laughs, I really just want to say thank you to Lowbrow studios for this.

I’m excited for Season 9! This series literally lives in my head rent-free

"Hey Sonic, you ever call a coin toss? Lemme give you a word of advice: Always bet on tails." That quote didn't need to go so hard, but my god, was it badass as fuck.

My favorite line Tails: Yeah garbage bag and busted chair, do you have anything to add?

It's a honor to see this series, AGAIN!

My little head cannons for Sonic Goes to College: 1. Sonic and the gang are all in the same dormitory room 2. Sonic ends up going into drinking and smoking parties instead of studying 3. Eggman and Jim starts a club involving drugs and deep fried food and tits 4. Tails being badmouth and bullied by jocks and upperclassman and nobody helps him 5. The entire crew ends up getting expelled for doing a bunch of fucked up stuff

"You're watching a poster." "F*ck off, I love this poster" The best, yet so early argument in the series so far

42:52 is the best joke in the entire series, mostly for sonic's reaction.

2:50:33 I swear thats a yugioh abridged joke. the origonal is "you, are a strange little man"

Back in the day when I myself felt lost and was looking for work I stumbled upon this gem. Never in my life was my soul so put at ease. Not feeling alone in regards to finding a purpose has been one of the best feelings I've ever experienced. Whenever I'm at this crossroad again this endless crossroad of looking for new beginnings, I always come back here to this series. Thank you so much Lowbrow Studios just wanted to say you help a big boring bloke out in rough times. Keep the dream alive folks!

This started in 2010 right? Now its 12 Years old! Wow! thats a big milestone guys! Most series like this barely last 5 years let alone 1 or 2 but this was so well received and luved that it kept going and got funnier with Sonic's crazy drunken antics and tails's assholiness XD!!!!!!

I love that whenever kerby is around and someone gets murdered, he always starts smiling

Highlights: 20:22 Sounds like the delivery guy from The Simpsons 21:57 Sounds like Big the Cat saying "Get out here!" 44:14 Crazy for margaritas 54:36 Great voice acting 55:37 The delivery of "OH GOD NOOO" , Sonic's voice actor is so fucking good man 1:04:47 This moment is random, he keeps laughing but then he doesn't know why he's laughing and tells himself to stop laughing and they flinch! Also look at Jim's face! 1:07:02 Stealing burgers while fighting 1:44:32 Dog is shocked 1:51:19 Eggman is the gayest of them all 2:05:25 Good lord Knuckles! 2:26:23 Well timed 3:19:46 Jesus Christ Sonic! 3:33:42 Stfu Knuckles

2:36:55 - Earthworm Jim was honestly more relatable than anyone else the entire series. Sometimes you just wanna have a good time, but that time has passed.

everything about this series is great. i miss that internet era of true creativity.

the fact you never dived into Amiga and Commodore breaks my heart.... we need more MORE

21:30 Seeing a blue smurf trying to kill sonic is the funniest thing ive ever seen.

Just as I'm thinking that Lowbrow should splice all of the seasons together, they pull through. You guys are fucking legends. Can't WAIT for Season 9!

This Robotnik/Eggman…is the best version throughout all the multiverse.

27:36 the zamboni pony cracked me up

52:49 Straight up, THE funniest bit.

Soniqua saying “AVOCADO” never fails to make me laugh. Thank you for making this a thing, and keep it up, Lowbrow!

Sonic For Hire has really come a long way from when it first started in the 2010s.

i can’t stop rewatching this

Loved this show back when I was in elementary, love it even more now that I understand the jokes! Thank you for making this and continuing it!

im new to this series and im lovin it

A perfect series. Simply magical that it’s still going on.

2:37:50 Let's do what we do best Sonic: FUCK.SHIT.UP

Dude, I grew up watching the first and second season. Man I can’t believe this series is still holding up!!! Man only kids who grew up in the late 2000s and 2010s will remember this series was once owned by machinima, it’s so weird not seeing that intro

I love how Sonic and Tails' relationship has developed through the seasons like at first it got worse and worse...and worse but season 9 they really are getting along...one of them is probably gonna do something to fuck it up but that's what makes them so fun to laugh at, also never noticed how Mother Brain's...I guess Body? makes squishing noises whenever it pulsates

2:28:10 Best line ever I love Sonic F'ing out Yoshi XD

Finding this again years after watching! Remember coming home from school as a teen watching these and sort of understanding the jokes but still loving it! Watching now just like everyone else I’ve got such a newfound appreciation for it! I’m glad to see it still running!

I haven’t watched sonic for hire in years, and the fact this showed up in my recommended 5 days after this release impressed me. The nostalgia is going to hit hard. Can’t wait to see the family feudXD

I don't know *how* I stumbled across this by accident. But I love it. Literally the most random thing I have ever witnessed on here, and it's great.

They cut a joke at 1:17:12 After the circle closes, it opens again and sonic says, “Seriously, what a fucking asshole. I gotta go to the hospital now.” Wonder why they cut it.

So much top-shelf dialogue and delivery. The stutters, the inflection, the creative portmanteaus of filthy slang - unmatched. This series is genuinely hilarious and bursting with nostalgic references filtered through a mature lens, which culminates perfectly as a testament to the late greats and modern, crude pop-culture critique a la Family Guy. These dudes clearly know how to have a good time, and seem like they’d just be an absolute blast to hang out with. You can tell just how important and impactful the “Golden Age” of gaming was to so many of us through these skits. A monumental ‘thank you’ for this critical piece of satirical comedy that serves as an account of how one of the most influential video game icons rose to, and fell from prominence; an experience those of us who grew up when titles like these were at the forefront will have burned into our psyches for life.

you guys have more attention to continuity than most big hollywood productions nowadays

This series makes me laugh every time no matter how many times I watch. I can't tell you how many times I laughed so hard. Thank you Lowbrow Studios for bring smiles to the world.

I love Sonic for Hire SO MUCH!!!! I've probably watched this show around a dozen times now......and I absolutely LOVE IT each and every time!

As someone who went through 20 jobs in the last 2 years, I feel immense relation to this story and the feelings it provokes. Long story short Ive had trouble finding a good fit and this helps me reflect and consider when I'm the problem in these situations. Thank you lowbrow for giving me inspiration to keep looking for a good fit.

1:34:10 - 1:34:20 is probably the best voice delivery in the show.

27:56 IT'S A ME, A MARIO!

2:29:30 "FUCKED UP" 💀💀

Okay how did y'all know that I had been watching this series again recently and thought to myself "man, I sure would like a whole movie for this series to fall asleep to on repeat"

Still one of my favorite Sonic fan projects. Can’t wait to see what’s in the future of Sonic (Hedgehog) For Hire

i am up right now at 4am trying to avoid my parents catching me on my phone all night. amazing video to spend the night watching 👍

1:51:24 I jUsT hAvE aN eReCtIoN iN mY pEnIs

After all these years, this series is still going strong.

3:15:12 "I. AM. GOD" anyone else thinking what i'm thinking? :)

I remember binge watching these when I would get sick ( I was a very sickly kid) I’ve rewatched this series loads of times will forever be in my heart

30:59 A year later sega buys angry birds

27:18 this moment has stuck with me for years.

2:33:55 I can't believe they actually bothered to put tails' pixel into a hover just to remind us he's the only character with constant animation

This never gets old this makes me laugh so hard every time I watch it. This has to be my favorite sonic video or animation so far

30:33 is kinda is convenient since Sega owns Angry Birds now.

Thanks for putting the entire series in one video for our viewing convenience. Must mean that Season 9 is within the horizon?

I have watched sonic for hire so much that now whenever playing a sonic game, I just hear these guys instead of the og voices....is that normal?

I've done entire marathons of this video who knows how many times. Never gets old

The easter eggs and references everywhere throughout the scenes and the humor is top-tier. Underrated!

2:10:56 is nobody gonna talk about how great that sprite work is this whole series is animated in pixels thats what makes this so amazing

21:14 This is probably my favorite joke in the whole thing. Such a fun series.

30:42 that line is incredibly ironic

I can't believe this is still going on. Great work!!

My favorite moments from each season of Sonic for Hire Season 1: Eggman and Jim beginning their partnership only to run away from Sonics mutant daughter Season 2: Sonic going from working for anyone or anything to forcefully working for Mario Season 3: Sonic and friends poor attempt at a heist Season 4: Tails being a spoiled diva during movie shoot Season 5: Shadow being introduced to the series only to immediately get killed afterwards Season 6: Sonic dies, and the world ended up going to peace Season 7: Eggman and Jim leaving to have fun with bikini clad women from dead or alive Season 8: Soniqua and Eggette having a momentary nemesis confrontation only for Soniqua to burp fire and burn Eggette to death Can’t wait for Sonic Goes to College

3:59 my favriote line for sonic

nice references to the series at 55:22 in the newspaper

I re-watch this series every few years. I will never get tired of it.

I love Sonic’s sarcastic attitude throughout the series. It’s great!

The quality on these is so on point that this could even be a series on a paid streaming server, easily one of the best fan made projects to ever exist

Seen this show so many times I can comfortably start it from anywhere and fall quickly asleep with the image in my mind...

1:06:45 Blur - Song 2? You know something, I may have had a few too many to drink but 8bit remixes ain't bad

This series saved me from depression back in the Machinima days. I'm just glad to see it's here on RU-vid for all to see again.

Man this really takes me back to the early 2010s. Part of the Golden Era on RU-vid for independent animation creators, IMO

time for the yearly rewatch. seriously my favorite thing on the internet

Bro tails's arms had the wrong color until 2:50

Jim:Ooooh can I get a salad Eggman:What the hell is a salad 1:44:58

Love the little details like sonic always spindashing uncontrollably when he gets really excited

Man. This aged wonderfully.

Man this takes me back nothing can keep you guys down at this point machinima going under didn’t stop you rooster teeth dropping you guys didn’t stop you. you guys are like Phoenix‘s. here’s to 12 years and to 12 more
