I’d also like to mention that Wierd Al signed a piece of Cheese Sandwich/Pinkie Pie fanart with “I stole your waifu”
Oh that’s too good XD
That's actually hilarious.
He's my tyler the creator
No way 💀💀💀
@@lordevolder9907that is a crazy comparison but I’m on board
Im pretty sure calling him "Cheese sandwich" was weird al's idea.
Its exactly what i think he'd name a pony.
Visually, I like how his cutiemark is a cheese sandwich sliced in half, but spread in a way that resembles an accordion.
@@Stratelier with grill marks that look like keys
Yep, he also regularly mentions cheese in quite a few of his songs too (both parodies and originals).
The best part of the transformers one is that the main reason they got him is because in the first transformers movie they played dare to be stupid
He also appears in a Christmas episode as Ratgar. I think he got the last line of the episode with "Free Trash for all the good children!"
He makes music for strange people, strange people make cartoons, weird people want to meet al, everybody is happy
The "My finger can transform. Guess which one" line was actually referenced in Transformers One. It was a really funny moment.
I’m just gonna give my two cents and say:
If Weird Al Yankovic doesn’t exist in your universe you did something wrong.
Weird al is canonically married to and has children with pinkie pie from mlp
The 'Dare to be Stupid' nod goes even further than just a reference to a song Al did.
That song was used in a key part of the 1986 Transformers movie, a gorgeously animated spectacle with a rocking soundtrack even if the story can be a little confusing.
---Spoilers beyond here---
So, the sequence is a clash on the planet of Junk/Junkion, an artificial planet composed of space trash from all over the galaxy. It's also inhabited by a species of Transformers called 'Junkions', who all turn into Transformer sized motorcycles. Their leader is Wreck Gar, voiced by the legendary Eric Idle.
The entire encounter eventually turns into a dance party with 'Dare to be Stupid' playing.
So that is why Al plays Wreck Gar in Transformers: Animated.
@@primeoetgrunn I actually knew Dare to be Stupid played in that movie
i didn't realize Wreck-Gar was played by someone else in his first appearance, then again, I watched Transformers The Movie decades ago, so I don't remember much.
Bro really loves cartoons, and I genuinely respect that
14:13 "Lately my timeline has been filled with accusations that I’ve had sexual relations with a horse - so, for the record, I’d just like to state that’s not entirely accurate." Weird AL - 2019
Not ENTIRELY accurate. A horse version of him did it, not the real one XD
As a lifelong transformers fan, the hearing you trying to explain transformers animated inflicted permanent psychic damage
TFA is one of my favorite shows so this did give me brain damage
As someone who also has ecclectic tastes in music, the reason you can listen to a playlist of just weird al is because his songs are in EVERY genre, from rap to 80s pop to polka. It never gets boring or samey
Wreck Gar saying "I dare to be stupid" is also a reference to the song being in Transformers The Movie (1986)
The song played during the scene in which Wreck-Gar was first introduced! Talk about full circle!
He is honestly really good when it comes to voice acting. I really like the cameos he appears in. Some fit in honestly
11:22 It’s actually not 100% certain that that’s his real name. It definitely could be.
But in his backstory song, he said growing up nobody even knew his name. It wasn’t until he got his cutie mark (of a cheese sandwich) that he started getting recognized, as ‘Cheese Sandwich’
Not impossible that it’s his birth name, but it could very well just be a name he himself chose.
The Cheese Sandwich name is just on brand for the naming conventions in MLP. Rainbow Dash, Twilight Sparkle, Mrs. Cake, Derpy, just to make a few.
Never forget that he was the Dollmaker in Batman Vs. Robin. He was there for about 5 minutes, but what a 5 minutes it was.
So Dr. Screwball Jones wants to go around and force merriment and good times on unsuspecting people? In other words you could say that he's trying to enact Mandatory Fun
theres a lot im seeing in this comment, i don't know- love polka, love cheese sandwich, weird al for the win!
The role that blew my mind and I didn't believe was his appearance in Batman vs Robin as Dollmaker. He sounded *NOTHING* like himself
It kind of blew me away when I first saw Pinkie's Pride. I wasn't expecting Weird Al to guest on the episode, and after that, it ends up being, what I believe to be, the perfect Pinkie Pie episode. It's energetic, it's silly, it's surreal, it's got catchy songs, it's just a fun time had entirely. It's in my Top 20 favorite MLP episodes.
14:15 I'm gonna take this out of context
Same
X2 14:13
BRO THAT IS THE GREATEST SENTENCE OF 2024
And of course it had to be followed by “mama warned me about women like you
I WAS HOPING SHE WAS RIGHT”
"Chea facked Weird Al"
A Dragon in a Pony cartoon
I remember hearing about his appearances in Scooby-Doo and Uncle Grandpa. I didn't realise he'd been in so many cartoons!
DR SCREWBALL JONES is my favorite WEIRD AL YANKOVIC character. (Wander Over Yonder) And it goes well with JACK MCBRAYER.
Al actually gave a bit of a history with Transformers. Dare to be stupid was in a scene from the G1 movie where Wreck-Gar and his crew attack the autobots. on top of voice acting wreck-gar in a couple episodes of animated (the best Transformers series) he also plays Cosmos in the current series, Transformers Earthspark
I was genuinely shocked when Weird Al *wasn't* the villain in the Scooby-Doo one, although in context of that specific episode it wouldn't make since.
I feel like Weird Al's voice and sense of humour just lends itself really well to animation and that's probably why he has so many cameos
4:06 Do you mean Prowl, the sleek black ninja bike and Bulkhead, the big clumsy lug with the heart of gold??? "I've watched some of that show so you don't have to!!!" Doug Walker would be proud!!!
The reason for Wreck-gar being voiced by Al is because one of his songs played in TF' 86 in the junk planet scene.
11:30 It's actually implied that ponies sometimes change their names after getting their cutie mark, so it's entirely possible thar he took the name Cheese Sandwich later.
Or when they get married
@brony4869 Sure, but Cheese hadn't been married before, so it's clearly not the case for him.
I feel like Weird Al marrying Pinkie Pie was so he can CLEVERLY take the piss out of Bronies, so he won't make a song parody about them!
Hello, fan of The 7D here! It's always a joy to see the show mentioned!
And to answer your question: nope, Bashful being a spy was only in that episode. What irked me is that he already had a secret alter-ego that he accidentally made in either episode 3 or 4 of the first season (the episode "The Big Bash," which was also his alter-ego name), and then they never used it again. At least that alter-ego felt more in-character, versus just Bashful transforming into James Bond, including the Sean Connery voice impression.
I was bummed at how unsatisfied I was with the episode, because I was so excited for Weird Al being a guest voice. With some changes and the episode being longer, it would've been a lot better. At least his performance as Shapeshifter was good (the accordian lyric in his villain song made me laugh)
5:34 that's a surprisingly intricate joke. Yes, the song title of course. But in the '86 movie, that song played as the main characters were getting help from: Junkbots. Transformers that inhabit a junk filled planet. Neat! 😁
I've actually met Weird Al in person!
did you force-feed him sauerkraut
@TrojanStrikeAnimations42069 No
SANAAOLLL SWERTEE SIYAA (luckyy you're so lucky)
I think you should update your channel homepage description...
One of my favorite Weird Al appearances is in Back At The Barnyard.
Me too, it was funny when he beat the shit out of farm animals with rubber chickens and golden disks
@@ShyGuyCookMaster50 i’d like to think that’s how he deals with home invaders.
This video's a banger. Never seen half of these despite having watched almost all of these shows a bunch as a kid (minus MLP and Hailey's on It), and Al has some crazy range.
So that whole Johnny Bravo episode was poking fun at Scooby-Doo's early attempts to stay relevent. After the original series they had The New Scooby-Doo Movies (which had a celeberty guest for almost every episode) and The Scooby-Doo Show (which often crossed over with The Blue Falcon).
(Oh and if you wanna try getting into Transformers, def watch more TF Anmated it's really good.)
It's always interesting to see Weird Al pop up in cartoons, though I'm kinda surprised you didn't bring up his appearance in Back At The Barnyard here, as I did see the clip of him appearing in an episode of that show and thought it was pretty funny.
''BAGPIPES! GIANT CLAM! LIIIIVE OSTRICH!''
Ah well, maybe it can be saved for a potential second video on this topic. Great work on this!
14:15 I recognize that series and art style from a mile away
Finally a video I have been waiting for someone to make
My understanding is that if you go up to this man with ten dollars and ask him to voice act a character he'll pay you back seven dollars to voice them. He will need the ten dollars first but he'll pay you with seven dollars
4:08 sari is not black, her father is Indian and she’s his robot daughter. So if anything, she’s Robo-Indian
So a few corrections to the Transformers segment of this video. The other two Autobots are Prowl and Bulkhead and Sari is not a black girl, she's Indian which should have been obvious by the fact her name is Sari and her father's accent. I would also like to point out, this not even the only Weird Al episode of Transformers.
For starters, the song they reference in the episode "Dare to be Stupid" was on the sound track of the original 1986 Transformers movie and plays during the scene when the original Wreck-Gar was first introduced.
Secondly, Weird Al would return as the voice of Wreck-Gar in the episode "Human Error, Part II" which is a season 3 episode and it should be noted by this point in the series we've found out, Sari isn't a human girl at all but she still has the appearance of an Indian. And in case it wasn't clear earlier I mean an actual Indian from India not a Native American.
Third, Weird Al has also appeared recently in THREE episode of Transformers Earthspark as Cosmos. He first appears in "The Butterfly Effect" and later in the "Judgement Day" two parter.
4:05 bulkhead the green one & prowl the black & gold one
Guess Who is sort of a sequel to a vintage Scooby-Doo series Scooby-Doo Movies were there is a lot of guest stars that are either real people or famous characters like Batman and Robin or Harlem Globetrotters
0:23 - 0:34 you literally just described my entire experience with weird Al wtf. I barely listen to actual artists I just take songs that sound cool and listen, but I found weird Al and basically listen to his entire discography. WTH???
The dare to be stupid reference is a bit deeper of a cut when you consider it played during the first transformers movie
You HAVE to be cowardly and brave to be a spy imo, curiosity killed the cat and all
Sari of Transformers is Indian coded, though she's actually like an alien robot
when you showed a picture of a velma show poster, i instinctively flipped it off
You kinda sound like weird Al. That’s been stuck in my head
He does tho
Lil bro has sauerkraut for breakfast
I heard of cheese sandwich but i didn't know he was weird al, then again i also never really heard weird al's music until recently
The reason why Weird Al teamed up with Don Knotts and the Blue Falcon: the three of them were somewhat infamous for appearing in multiple unrelated cartoons. Don Knotts back in his hay day was a voice actor for probably even more characters than Weird Al, and Blue Falcon didn't have quite as many guest appearances but when he does show up it's jarring because he's so out of place with the likes of Dexter's Lab and Scooby Doo; and out of all of Hanna Barbera's action shows (like Thundarr, Birdman, Space Ghost, Herculoids etc.) I don't think anybody knows why Blue Falcon of all of them is the one they decided should be crossing over into their other properties.
"He who is tired of weird Al is tired of life" - Homer Simpson
0:24 I have that exact same shirt, I used it for my Halloween costume (I was dressed as weird Al)
this dude is the only one Who can say " my oc and x cartoon charactere have a child are oficial" like gojo fans and Miguel o'hara would the world
The first time I've heard of Weird Al Yankovic is hearing the Polkamon song he provided for the end credits of the 4Kids dub of Pokemon the Movie 2000.
Strange that you mention Wreck-Gar, then later mention characters who return after their first appearance. Wreck-Gar also appeared in another episode. The Autobots were mind controlled by Soundwave, meaning Sari (Tara) had to recruit more robots to rescue them. Wreck-Gar returned, along with Scrapper the Constucticon and Snarl the Dinobot.
I found it amusing when you mentioned "Like a surgeon" as an example of his sense of humor. It's the only idea he didn't come up with himself. Madonna suggested it to him.
I've been a fan since the 80s.
Oh and Al voiced Wreck-gar because "Dare to be stupid" was on the soundtrack for the OG transformers movie where the character debuts. And John Cleese didn't want to voice him again.
love the video but its soo funny about him complaining about the constant noise wail he has a annoying sound playing over himself talking 25:13
3:15 I’m actually a transformers fan and my favorite transformers shows are tfprime & tfanimated
He's the director in the Scott Pilgrim show, too.
The 7D? *Takes puff of cigar* I haven't heard that name in years
In all seriousness, i love this show and i want it to be added on Disney plus. I don't wanna buy it on youtube because i bet the second i do, it'll get added
ooouuuggghhhhh i love weird al eugh hes so silly and such a cutie please protect this dude
19:16 Maybe we could have... if we got more seasons.
5:35
That's also a Transfotmers reference, because the song "Dare To Be Stupid" was in the Original Transformers Movie (1986). That scene is also the presentation of The Junkions and the first apppereance of Wreckgar, the transformer that Weird Al voices here.
Weird Al shows up in 2 Transformers Animated episodes, Wreck-Gar comes back later on! (And ends up back in the riverbed by the end...)
Weird Al is an IRL cartoon character
"ABRACADABRA" - Solider tf2
i can't believe so many people have been using Al to make tv episodes for so long.
Aaaaaaand this video forced me to remember 7D. You madman
Cannot believe you skipped the Back at the Barnyard episode where Weird Al literally makes an appearance and is revealed to be a horse lmao
@@starstruxtion I thought Al just had a cameo in that one
@thadmaster7 it's 50/50 on that. He's pretty involved at the last quarter of the episode
I actually didn’t know weird Al voiced the junkbot in transformers animated
One of the best characters he played was Captain Peanutbutter from Bojack Horseman. I was surprised since his character went from comedic to depressed, saying how it is cruel to let people love you because you are promising them that you will break their hearts in the future. The reason why he is depressed is that he has a certain condition that could be fatal, and he is getting surgery.
Thankfully, he lives, but his acting was very impressive, going from his usual self to a person who is worried about his mortality and how he may not have long to live if the surgery doesn't go well.
@@AznOmega I actually thought about putting the Bojack episodes in this video.
The aquabats super show has Weird Al!
THE AQUABATS MENTIONED!!! They’re one of my favorite bands and I love the show so much it’s so goofy 🫶
@ me and my sister LOVE the show!!!
Was not expecting a .mov reference.
14:08 i think they can read my thoughts.
this dude sounds almost exactly like al
"And........... That"
Yeah accurate depiction of Velma
4:06 She's Indian
Because you only watched this episode you never saw her dad
When you mentioned hailys on it I literally said to myself I should watch that I never finished all the episodes just for you to say it was canceled and taken off Disney plus
i love we fixed a truck, it's such a vibe
Al is a treasure
Fun-fact: Dare to be Stupid was also part of the soundtrack of the original '80s TransFormers movie, and played during the scene that originally introduced Wreck-Gar!
wreckgar is peak transformers
Bonus: Weird Al voiced another Transformer. In the show Transformers Earthspark he cameos as the autobot Cosmos
AI is so much in my head now that i read the title as “the weird ai episodes”
14:14 this part had me cackling 😂😂
19:43 The 7D? Heh! That ain’t a name I’ve heard in years.
The funniest part is that he sounds a little like Weird Al when he speaks in a monotone voice
And then there’s Milo murphy’s law where every episode is a weird al episode
Weird Al voiced a character in both of Hasbro's biggest properties, and I love that
0:59 looook is wander over yonder my favorite show
The whole reason Al voiced Wrek-Gar is from the original Transformer Animated movie used his song "Dare to be stupid" for the original Wrek-gars intro.
Al appeared as Wrek-gar twice in transformers animated
Mighty Majiswords did struggle with its pacing sadly
And the writer
Cheese Sandwiches' cutie mark looks a lot like an accordion
hey it me hercega from wattpad i finally found your channel a sub to it i really enjoy the videos
16:48 "So i mailed a letter to my evil twin"
Also your "evil twin" sounds like Doofenshmirtz
Weird Al was in a second episode of Transformers Animated as Wreck Gar in the second half of the Christmas 2 parter episode. Where Wreck Gar teams up with Snarl, Scrapper and Sari Sumdac against Soundwave.
weird al actually plays 2 transformers
wreck gar (the one you mentioned)
And cosmos from earthspark
4:06 Sari is Indian.
my favorite part about the Dare to be Stupid reference is that the song played in the 1986 movie over the scene in which Wreck-Gar first appears
