Week 6, 2012
Cheat Commandos is a short released on May 10, 2004 where a new toy series from Cheap As Free Toys debuts with a commercial. In the commercial, Strong Bad, Homestar Runner, and Coach Z are playing with the new Cheat Commandos toys. Afterwards, all of the Cheat Commandos toys are introduced (except Firebert, who was introduced in an earlier toon), along with various new vehicles and playsets. Finally, a preview from the Cheat Commandos Adventures cartoon is shown where Blue Laser is threatening to blow up the ocean and the Cheat Commandos have to stop them. Later on, Blue Laser tries a new objective to crush the Cheat Commandos. They fail miserably thanks to Firebert crushing them. view (more...)
Week 5, 2012
Superbowl Dealie is a Superbowl toon that was released during Super Bowl XXXVII. The toon takes place at the Basement of the Brothers Strong, where Strong Mad is watching TV, holding a football, yelling "Take it to the house" over and over again. Strong Bad comes in and tells Strong Mad that the game has been over for 6 hours, and Strong Mad throws the football at Strong Bad. Strong Bad ends up "taking the football to the house". Homestar Runner comes in wearing a Boston Bruins shirt and watches the TV with Strong Mad. This toon makes a reference to 20X6 (because of the page title). The Paper comes down saying "Due to the big game, the Strong Bad Email will be late this week.", and Homestar peeks out from it. watch (more...)
Week 4, 2012
In different town, the 99th Strong Bad Email, Steven from WV asks Strong Bad what he would do if he could make his town different. He explains in song form: the changes include The Poopsmith being able to talk, Marzipan changing her style of music and her hair, The Stick becoming a man-eating tree, The King of Town being "pea-buried alive", Bubs giving out unusual weapons, Strong Sad having been born with horns and a tail, Coach Z wearing a cool jacket, Homestar quitting sports, Pom Pom looking like an ABA basketball, and Homsar being a modestly hot girl. After the song, Strong Sad tries to offer Strong Bad a bust of Bubo, but since Strong Sad is dressed much like his brother imagined him, Strong Bad goes crazy, causing his brother to call him a "spaz" and a "weirdo". Strong Bad then concludes that his imagination is broken, and ends up "go[ing] place". watch (more...)
(Week 3, 2012)*
Stinkoman is Strong Bad's 20X6 counterpart. He is an amalgam of anime clichés, including blue hair, big eyes, a blocky sort of body and an obsession with challenging and fighting. He was introduced in the email japanese cartoon, but his name was first mentioned in island, where Homestar Runner called Strong Bad "Stinkoman". His birthday is on the sixth of January, one week before Trogdor's. He seems more than willing to eat dirt, since he has done so on one occasion. Stinkoman apparently has a cell phone, as he claims to when he invites Marzipan to a challenge in Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 8.0. He has the ability to call his ship, the Stinkowing, when he whistles. Stinkoman also stars in the game Stinkoman 20X6, which The Brothers Chaps introduced in the NYU Talk and later released on the website. According to alternate universe, he is friends with Vector Strong Bad, who functions as his "training simulator". (More...)
(Week 2, 2012)*
Dragon, the 58th Strong Bad Email, was released on January 13, 2003. The e-mail began with Kaizer asking Strong Bad to draw a dragon, and after one failed attempt, Trogdor was born. The e-mail quickly became one of the most popular cartoons on homestarrunner.com. The heavy metal song at the end came to Matt by inspiration while he was cooking breakfast. At that time, Mike was finishing up the animation, but they decided to append the song to the end of the e-mail. (more...) watch
Week 1, 2012
20X6 vs. 1936 is a short released on March 17, 2003 where Stinkoman meets The Homestar Runner, who has somehow stumbled into the 20X6 era. After being insulted by Stinkoman, The Homestar Runner tells Stinkoman to "go soak [his] fat head". Stinkoman takes this as a challenge and goes on the attack only to be stopped by The Homestar Runner's pea shooter. The Homestar Runner starts dancing and Stinkoman gets into it wanting to dance too. This short reveals that the Old-Timey era takes place in the 1930s. watch (more...)
