Giving some leeway for older cartoons, here are some toons I hate in no particular order: Current Status, For Kids, Cool Things, Homestar Hair, The Lil Brudder Show, Rock Opera, Bottom 10, TGS: Teeny Tiny Edition (I forget which one this is).


Holy crap, man. You listed off some hilarious stuff amongst decent stuff.

How can you not like Teeny Tiny Edition? "RRRRHGK! GRRGH! Err... he died somehow." (torso takes silver).

Also, Seaborg, that wasn't just something TBC made up, that was a toon made around the fact that there is actually a Cheatar that was on display in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland. Given that, it's hard to fault the toon itself. That's like saying the 404 page isn't funny enough.

Email Car. Bad all over.
Lil Brudder toon wasn't very tasteful.

At least they tried to make something out of it.

Worst toon/short: In Search Of The Yello Dello. The commentary-less version of this is probably my least favorite thing on all of H*R. It's close to unwatchable, I think.

Worst E-mail: some kinda robot. *shrugs* Oh well - at least there's significance in it getting SBemail off the ground.

Worst game: 50k Racewalker. Very dumb and pointless, though I think this one is kind of intentionally bad.

Kind of a negative topic for my 500th post, I guess. ;)



You guys seem to have a vandetta against the old style toons- ha! Dudes, it's great to laugh with them and enjoy their all round edginess. The commentry is awesome, it practically rips the cartoon to pieces.
Dude! You "think" it was intentionally bad?! Come on man, that thing was loaded with planned lameness and raw stupidity.
In closing, liven up and lighten up.

Nah, I like quite a few of the older toons - most of them were actually decent and of consistently better quality than the earliest SBemails, until it got to be the other way around later. Notice I said the commentary-less version of Yello Dello was my least favorite thing on the site - I can actually kinda sorta enjoy it in parts when you have SB making fun of it.

I guess if we're going to disqualify early toons/E-mails and intentionally bad games from this 'worst of H*R' topic, which is fair enough, then boring (really) and dreamail would be my picks, as those are the only two things on the site from the last 2-3 years that I get very little enjoyment out of. I know The Lil' Brudder Show is supposed to be the trendy pick, but I think it's okay and unfairly bashed (much like 'car'). Not great, and not the most tasteful thing on the site by a longshot, but decent.

See, I don't understand why everyone hates Car. I thought it pretty humorous.

Thanks to mib for backing me up, somewhat. There really isn't a complete FLOP of a cartoon. I think each one has made me chuckle, at least.

I STILL DON'T GET WHY EVERYONE HATES CAR! Sooooooooooooooooooooo many people say they hate car, yet they never explain why. Car is quite a good one, even though it has nothing to do with a car. So will somebody explain to me why they don't like it?

I mean I see why people don't like boring (really), because they have a REASON to think it's boring, even though I was laughing through the entire thing.

EDIT: I don't like Dreamail.

Well, I don't really hate car. But I don't really like it either.
Mostly because of the littlest, annoying things... like, I could not understand what Homestar was saying the first two times I watched it. His speech seemed more unintelligable than usual. I also don't give a crap about cars, so I didn't really appreciate the joke. The concept of the 'tricked out propellor cap' was funny, but those mechanical sounds it made were ANNOYING and it made the email seem like it was rushed, in my opinion. Strong Bad writing DELETED on his glove was a bit of a crummy way to make his point... but then he got to punch Homestar, no I have no further complains. :) The first easter egg was my only favorite part.

It's such a lovely gathering of pies and pie people...

And I bet a lot of viewers expected to see Strong Bad actually claim he owned a car instead of disregarding it. I know I kind of expected that to happen.

The Li'l Brudder Show wasn't that good.

The SBEmail best thing wasn't that bad.

But yeah, I'd say the worst thing on the site recently would be the Li'l Brudder Show. I agree that the Easter Egg wasn't funny, and his voice sucked, but the song isn't too bad. I hope the next Li'l Brudder toon is better.

I also don't care for some of the early Puppet Stuff. The King of Town wasn't a very good toon either. I don't see why they'd take down Marshmallow's Last Stand and A Jumping Jack Contest but leave The King of Town up. (A Jumping Jack Contest at least has jokes... and humor... and readers under the age of 91--wait...)

Nothing on the site is truly horrible though, just a few... stnanks that could be worthy of a do over.

Well, my least favorite overall is Yello Dello. I mean, the story's appreciative, but the images SUCK! I mean, if this was made after MLS and JJC, the images should have been developed, right? But the images are not constant (Homestar's weird looking in one scene, has sandals in another, is 2 feet and gains 100 pounds in another, and looks weird and is floating in air in another). And there's also Strong Bad's beer belly. But the commentaries save this episode, so I'll say that this is tied with the KOT, which has a bad plot and is short.

I also hate L'il Brudder show, but not as much as the two aforementioned toons. Well, maybe.

It was supposed to seem exaggerated for The Yello Dello.

Well, I'd agree with you on Marshmallow's Last Stand, but I actually found A Jumping Jack Contest to be slightly funny. Or at least, there's one line that's funny: "Ah, let's see. I want to thank The Cheat for helping me to cheat–oh no, wait, I shouldn't say that. Let's try that again. I want to thank Strong Mad for helping me to cheat. There, that's better."

I take it you don't like spoofs of 80's shows very much, do you?

I agree with Einoo, A Jumping Jack Contest had some pretty good lines. The parts with Strong Sad doing two jumping jacks, Strong Mad and The Cheat tricking Bubs, Strong Mad and The Cheat dressing as Strong Bad, and Strong Bad dressing as Pom Pom and trying to talk like him were funny in a subtle way. Marshmallow's Last Stand wasn't very funny though. Interesting, but not funny. The Yello Dello's animation sucked (it made MLS look good) but it had a decent plot and length and the humor was all right. It was better than The King of Town in terms of everything except animation. The Reddest Radish was freakin' awesome though. (I loved the exaggerated corniness of it.)

I didn't like car because a lot of it was, well, incredibly typical. Like it seemed like the jokes could have been taken from any kid's cartoon (such as Homestar's babbling after being punched, which was just terrible). It's the same reason I don't like Caffeine.

That and a lot of it seemed forced and the jokes where choreographed a mile away. "Ehh... why am I DOING this?" and the like. Although the "doing" gag was the only part of it that was amusing.

Well... I think the KoT DVD is the worst one. Even worse than Little Brudder.
At least Little Brudder had... I mean... It... Gah! You get it already!

Though the KoT DVD had one of the coolest easter eggs ever.

There's been a few bad Decemberween toons, especially the early ones. The worst one was "A Holiday Greeting", which although it was the first D-ween toon was also not exactly the first thing they did. They should have learned about that time.

However, I will give them credit for "remaking" the

Well, it's not exactly an easter egg. Well it is, but it wasn't for the DVD. It was an april fools thing, and when april fools was over, they moved it there.



But you know that... right? ;)

That was almost my vote for worst Sbemail. The only good thing was caffinated Strong Sad. Worst toon? Little Brudder Show. Not funny.

But...in the grand scheme of things, the good on H*R VASTLY outwieghs the bad.


I don't see the problem with boring. It was so boring it's funny. Except Strong Sad had to come around and act all like my favorite variation of him.


Me? I love all the crap featured. Its all good.
