Thundercats, Animorphs, Metal Wolf Chaos 

Don’t know if this has been done yet, but if not, they should do an ‘Oops! All Shinies’ episode where every question is a shiny question.

Lou's presence in anything automatically makes it better.

“Lou it’s crazy you haven’t been in here before.” *rewinds unsleeping city* “I haven’t been on Um Actually cause Trapp hates me!”

Don't know if any other medical nerds out there have said this, but Um Actually, the Hippocampus of the brain was named after the creature because it resembles a sea horse but sounds more sciency than "seahorse"

“ we paved paradise, and we put up a parking lot!” Is an unexpectedly powerful villain line

I’m still waiting for someone buzz in with “Um, actually… that’s not entirely accurate.” “Can you elaborate?” “No.”

So... Lou is like a less intense, more polite Brennan? He deserves a point for that.

Um actually, there is one other way for Yeerks to survive without Kandrona Rays - by cannibalizing other Yeerks. Visser Three's twin is using this method to survive while locked away in his host's mansion.

7:15 “What do you think Slimer was like before he died? Because all of the other ghosts show some sort of humanity.” Prior to the afterlife, Slimer was a gluttonous toddler. He died-and is now green-because he ate a box of rat poison.

R5-D4 actually found his way to Peli Motto on Mos Eisley, and is the droid that projected the map for The Mandalorian.

That was a NASTY Animorphs question. It hinged on a throwaway line in a spin-off novel to the main canon, which is much more memorable for the Animorphs TRAVELLING BACK IN TIME than them eating broccoli with the Mercora.

I feel like "Kylo Ren & Stimpy" is an answer to one of those Twitter "add a word, ruin a title" things.

“Get in the comments!” Man, I wanna get another episode with Brennan so bad

I love how the Animorphs question did not have the answer I thought it did. I was going to go with "the oatmeal is extremely addictive, but does not inherently drive them insane"

Keeper of the Keys and Grounds. I got you Lou. He is also called a groundskeeper several times. Man knows how to keep a ground!

Watching this in October of 2023 and the snarf commentary was crazy timely lol

Um, actually “Maze Daddy” is the proper term and always will be.

Um, actually, the R5D4 popping its own motivator story was CANON until Disney bought Star Wars and eliminated the Expanded Universe books from canon.

It's good to see Maddox keep up his proud tradition of losing

It could be just my drunk mind talking but I think Trapp could be an epic dm

I’ve been binging episodes for days. Many years old. Hours upon hours of this excellent show. And I just now realized the props in the background are all just a bit wrong. So good

Hagrid was a great Care of Magical Creatures professor when he had control of his own classes. His lessons on hippogriffs, nifflers, and thestrals are spectacular, and it's only when outside forces are involved that his classes take a turn. The only real counterargument to this is the blast-ended skrewts, but that's its own can of worms.

Um, actually, according to special fx artist Steve Johnson (in his book Rubberhead Volume II: Sex, Drugs, and Special FX), Slimer was meant to be the ghost of John Belushi as per request by Dan Aykroyd and Harold Ramis. The part of Peter Venkman was written for Belushi, but he died before filming started. In the book, Steve Johnson also stated that the design for Slimer came to him after doing 3 grams of cocaine.

It's sad that no matter how many points Amy gets here, she'll still be using them to pay back Breaking News.

Glad to see Amy win a game, since she always loses Breaking News.

Me: Oh man, I can't believe I only got two goblins and one of them is Jareth! That's embarrassing. Actual Players: Labyrinth and Maze Daddy.

Um actually, there is another way for yeerks to survive: Eating other yeerks. Um actually, it's legal to own a ferret in California but it's not legal to buy one, so if you "find" one you can own it.

I honestly remembered the whole thing with R5D4 as R2 zapping him secretly, and deliberately killing him.

Um actually, the Great Goblin isn't from Lord of the Rings. He is killed years before that during the events of The Hobbit.

That look straight at the camera after being told Snarf has more to his name was a-ma-zing.

THE ANIMORPHS QUESTION MAKES ME SO HAPPY! 🦀🥦

Me sitting here going: Damn, I only know 3 of those goblins, I’d NEVER get a point. 30 seconds later: FUCK (Also, I was unaware there was ANYBODY who didn’t know Jareth the Goblin king)

the hippocampus bit was hilarious, I love Lou

Lou absolutely deserved the point for the hippocampus

Shiny question idea: Speed round where it works exactly like the regular game, except the statements have glaringly obvious inaccuracies, and it's more about who can hit the button fastest.

17:31 It's a little too much to hope for, but it would be amazing if the LP of Metal Wolf Chaos being discussed here is the Super Best Friends Play LP. RIP, SBFP. Your channel was too beautiful to carry on forever.

We need Lou and Brennan to be on an episode together. That would be a great episode 😂

Un actually: The green goblin isn't a goblin, he is a human (Norman Osborn) dressed as a goblin

God I love this show. 11:37 That Blizzardy Warcraft world 23:22 The braingle, even

they had the chance to say gnomies instead of gnome friends and i'm truly heart broken

For anyone who doesn't understand the hippocampus creature. The part of the brain called the hippocampus closely resembles a seahorse. That weird mermaid horse thing is a litteral sea horse. Hence the name

Trapp is so naturally hilarious!!! I'll be honest, I didn't think I was going to enjoy this show very much but damn the vibes are just so chill 😎😎😎

Amy Vorpahl playing Heroes of the Storm made my day

Thanks to Rick Riordan, the moment Trapp said hippocampus, all I thought of was the mythical creature. I didn't even remember that a part of the brain is called the hippocampus.

It's almost weird to see Amy not about to have a laugh-induced stroke.

Trapp quoting Big Yellow Taxi in a cartoony Batman villain voice is an all time highlight

About halfway through the fictionary thing I remembered what a Hippocampus was. It was in the Percy Jackson book series, and those movies that definitely never happened actually show what the Hippocampus looks like.

Griphook- in the scene that still is from- is some of my favorite subtle acting in all of film, no exaggeration. Warwick Davis has a long history of acting through makeup, but this performance, in that scene, he does almost practically nothing, in terms of movements. But every tilt of his head, raise of his eyebrow, movement of a single finger: perfection. He says SO much by doing so little, it's brilliant. His lines are terse, but he says so much with them. Such high regard for Mr. Davis' acting ability. And I am KICKING myself for not being able to recall the name "Griphook" in the moment; I just really could not think of the character's actual name, until he said it.

I love Lou in everything he is in. He is hilarious and has great teeth.

two episodes (so far) with animorphs questions. didnt know they would be so popular (at least behind the camera) in the nerd sphere to warrant being on the show. no xena or mighty max or street sharks or tmnt (yet) but TWO animorphs questions???? SHOCKED especially when no one seems to have read these books on the panel. but i feel seen. LOVE this series. #finishitoneday hope there are more animorphs love as i continue my journey through ALL your videos

Vorpahl is always such a treat.

"We're all trying to get in shape and eat right..." As I shove another taco bell chalupa in my face...

26:50 Um actually, he was capable of ending all life in the universe, but settled for 50% for "balance".

19:12 Not gonna lie, that delivery sent shivers down my spine. What a good line.

Every time Maddox draws something the world gets more humourous

This is the type of show Maddox would rip on, surprised to see him on it

Um actually, Little Nemo: Adventures in Slumberland is still one of my favorite movies ❤

I love this show

MIKE give Lou that hippocampus point. Only one who didnt try to out smart you

We need the guy from Big Giant Swords to craft one for Amy...she's always a fun guest.

This made me go find and watch the first episode of Thunder Cats and damn that show is wild and I love it

As close as he was off the hip with that drawing i would’ve awarded him a point

So, why do episodes of Um, Actually get reuploaded all the time? I'm not talking about the ones migrating from drop-out. I'm constantly getting episodes in my subscription feed that I've already seen on youtube before.

It's amazing how rarely anybody on this show ever gets anything about warcraft with how INSANELY popular warcraft is even beyond nerdom

your Xueyi repping has earned a sub, she just doesn't get enough love.

Um, Actually... In the comic Star Wars: Empire (or was it Star Wars: Tales?), there were a short story about R5-D4. It was the first ever droid to be force sensitive but had hidden it from everyone. When R5-D4 saw Luke, it had visions of a possible future with them together, becoming strong in the force. But also saw that the Empire would in the end win if R2-D2 wasn't sold to the Skywalkers. So that was when R5-D4 committed suicide so the light side could return to the galaxy.

When you recognize two of the goblins and know EXACTLY where they’re from and can even imagine their voice, but can’t for the life of you remember wtf they were called.

What an incredible decade the 80's were. Teenage Mutant Ninja turtles, Thundercats, He - Man, Transformers, G.I Joe, The Real Ghostbusters and so on and so forth... So many awesome cartoons back in the 80's.

Holy shit, I never thought I would see the goblins from Little Nemo, that was one of my favorite movies as a kid, and absolutely NO ONE knows what I'm talking about when I try to talk about that movie.

Oh boy, a new Um Actually and it's got a thing I like in the title! This is gonna be a banner 30 minutes

More like "Um, Reruns" , am I right ? Come on, guys! COME ON !

I feel like Lou should have gotten the point for the hippocampus, because he did at least get that it was aquatic creature

I’d love to see someone answer a question they know 100% but in a way where it sounds like they’re guessing at it just because it’d be funny to see everyone else laugh at a funny guess and then the person was right.

I'm convinced the reason we remember the Monopoly guy with a monocle is because of Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls.

Best show in YT! Seen this episode 3x and no regrets 😀

13:17 So, the Quibbler is like McSweeney's. You send them something, pretend you're a real writer and put "I write for them" on your resume as though you work for them.

Is there a list of everybody who has an "Um, Actually" point? Also what would the true leaderboard for who is winning between every game?

My first thought about Metal Wolf Chaos was that you didn't liberate the landmarks, you fought them and now I want a game where the villain rebuilds landmarks into giant robots and you have to fight them as the robot version of the Lincoln Memorial

The toilet droid should have been named 4U2P.

I think conflating Uncle Pennybags with having a monocle would be attributed to Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls. Carrey EXPLICITLY addresses that fancy, monocle wearing person as "The Monopoly Guy", before thanking him for the free parking.

According to the director of the first Ghostbusters movie, he says he imagines slimmer to be like the spirit of jim Belushi.

The fact that it wasnt noticeably warwick davis in the guess that goblin list, but willow was one of the answers! 🤣🤣🤣 Griphook is one of my fav characters from the films!

Amy Vorpahl is such a delight.

R5D4 is like the rat from Endgame. Unsung heroes we salute you

I feel like I've seen this episode before .. Like I legitimately swear I've seen this before. Not mad if y'all are reposting old videos, just made me think real hard for a second lol

I just started watching this series and I can't stop.

Good morning, fellow routine watchers of Um, Actually!

Lou's laugh is reason to live one more day

Wow, this is the first time I've heard the name Maddox in about 12 years

I'm so pleased with myself that I got 4 and a half on the goblin round

19:15 Love the Joni Mitchell reference. I gain more respect for Trapp every episode I watch

This is my favorite episode, it has my favorite question.

Um, actually! The move of the snarfs from their home is actuallyyyyy the snarf of tears 😤

So happy I knew the answer to the animorphs question!!! I never know most of the stuff they talk about but that was one of the random animorph books I picked up as a kid and I loved the broccoli bit specifically, just such a funny thing to slip in there.

I can't believe I knew hippocampus. Thanks, AoM!

Hippocampus - sea(-monster) horse Hippopotamus - river horse Campus also can be translated as "flat land" (from Latin.) Both end in "-us" because they're Latin adaptations from Greek words ending in "-os."

Umm, Actually Slimer is the Ghost of John Belushi according to Dan Aykroyd.

This is hilarious. My first wizard was a necromancer named Fizzle Bothsome. Thank you for justifying my gnome's name :D

All I need in the title is metal wolf chaos and I'm sold

I thought it was bad when I only knew two of the goblins' names, then they gave their answers, and suddenly I didn't feel as bad 🤣
