Thanks so much for watching! If you celebrate Christmas, have a great Christmas Eve! Let me know your thoughts on this weird ending to Camp Lazlo!
I’m so glad someone else realized this
Camp Lazlo looks like the cartoon maker of Rocko's Modern Life.
Dude yes!! Thanks and safety to ya as always friend!! Happy holidays to ya as well!! Merry Fringemas!
This twist really doesn't make sense given we saw Lumpus and Slinkman as kids attending Camp Kidney in 1 episode, but then again in another episode we saw Lumpus hiring Slinkman when the camp 1st opened, and in yet another episode Lumpus talked about how he's related to The Big Bean and inherited Camp Kidney so I guess this show isn't known for having a strong continuity.
I've heard of so many in a list of wqtchmojo. Definitely do more individual vids like these
This ending really does scream "We just learned we are gonna get canned at the end of the season, but we can make a final episode" and this episode was the result of that possible issue.
Kinda like the finale of Angry Beavers
That's a kinda sad process. All that time and effort being put into a cartoon, only for it to be eventually canned by the network, the executives,not whoever decides how long a show can live.
@@robrick92 the reason they got canceled was stupid
@@astronauttheoceangod2357 what was the reason?
@@shrimpyalfredo3933 because they broke the fourth wall
I think this ending made sense in a way. So many oddities and other strange occurrences happened during this show's runtime. And Lumpus had already been shown to have villainous habits. Perhaps this ending was much more fitting.
Samson said it best: "I think we're at that point where things couldn't possibly get any weirder"

@@jessetorres8738 well i mean this can be explained in one shot. He got fired replaced then locked his replacement away before the show started. Slinkman probably never got informed.
@@jessetorres8738 the being at camp as kids is irrelevant as all that proves is he knew Slinkman and of the camp
him hiring Slinkman could have happened after he replaced the scoutmaster and thus done illegally
as for the last point and how Slinkman never figured it out? easy, he lied
I’m 90% sure Lumpus was a pedophile
so despite just now seeing this, I gotta admit. I didn't KNOW this was the shows ending when I saw it. I honestly thought it was.. Just another episode. And that more would come after it. Which just goes to show that Camp Lazlo was just so strange that even the ending to the entire series felt like the middle of a new season.
Flapjack was the same way
@@nonomen6665 did flapjack have an end? i thought they didn't make one
@@bubblemage they didn't show it (during re runs) so every kid was like "oh boy! I can't wait to come across a new episode when i get home from school" as much as producers wished children were glued to the TV like adults were- some of us didn't get the chance to see special episodes like that. when with Camp Lazlo, they showed the season finale more because I guess you're right, it does feel like every other episode.
I was shocked when I found out, a few days after it aired, that this was the last episode. I assumed that more episodes would come that would explain and deal with the fallout of the WTF moment I had just witnessed.
Same
It's also worth noting in the new Rocko's Modern Life movie Static Cling, during the scene where Rocko, Heffer, and Filbert first crash land back to earth, Lumpus is seen laying underneath a highway, surrounded by various empty bottles, implying that he is a homeless drunk
I'm Guessing he Either, Became Homeless After he was Released From Prison or Rocko's Modern Life Takes Place Before Camp Lazlo and the Scene Shows Lumpus Before Taking Over the Camp
THats why hes so. STINKY
So I was not insane to think that the real Scoutmaster looked like Heffer from Rocko's Modern Life.
The ending was honestly traumatizing to me as a kid. It was so scary how they just basically dropped this plot twist that the scout master was an psychotic imposter, like some type of "the phone call came from inside the house" story.
This twist really doesn't make sense given we saw Lumpus and Slinkman as kids attending Camp Kidney in 1 episode, but then again in another episode we saw Lumpus hiring Slinkman when the camp 1st opened, and in yet another episode Lumpus talked about how he's related to The Big Bean and inherited Camp Kidney so I guess this show isn't known for having a strong continuity.
@@jessetorres8738 That's most shows in general. It's so ironic how the audience tends to be more in touch with story details than the people who actually sat there and WROTE it.
@@jessetorres8738
I’m not saying that this twist is the most clever thing or anything, but he and Slinkman being there as kids could have been what made him want to impersonate a counselor in the first place. Also, if he was an imposter, he could have merely tricked Slinkman into thinking he was a legitimate hire with Slinkman having no idea that the guy wasn’t actually a worker.
Plus, he could have just been lying about inheriting the camp, considering it turns out his whole life was a lie.
What story are you referring to..... lol I'm curious. What house? What call?
@@mzywica I think they are referencing a really good animated movie called Monster House, I highly recommend it
Huge CL fan here. If you think the twist was mind-blowingly disturbing on its own, it's even worse when you take into account that there's a lot of, admittedly contradicting, evidence that points to Lumpus being a "Scoutmaster" before the show began. Meaning that he somehow managed to pass off as a Scoutmaster for YEARS... maye he is a genius, after all.

@@jessetorres8738 I think the show follows negative continuity, where almost nothing sticks and basically anything can happen. Meriwether Williams, the story editor for Camp Lazlo, was the story editor for seasons 1-3 of SpongeBob SquarePants, a show that uses negative continuity very frequently.
@mohamed zayan Seems to me that not having to stick to continuity allows for far greater creative freedom, something very important in a kids show.
Look up the episode "1 + 1 = Ed" from Ed, Edd n Eddy, they literally break the universe and it's fantastic.
@@jessetorres8738 No he wasn't related to the Big Bean. The Big Bean's relative squandered his inheritance, and Lumpus's father scooped up Camp Kidney.
Also remember the Halloween episode that implied Camp was somehow year-round.
@@jessetorres8738 I mean, theoretically, all those things could have still happened. He went to the camp with Slinkman, hired him on later, *owns* the camp, which is why he can hire people, and maybe he was a councilor *before* he inherited the camp, and, upon realizing he preferred being the councilor, tied up and hid the real councilor, and Slinkman is his stomholmed accomplice. It's convoluted, but it *can* all fit together.
The weird part is the real scoutmaster, Slinkman, and Lumpus are all voiced by Tom Kenny. He was pretty much conversing and yelling at himself through this whole show.
Maybe in the end it was Spongebob all along. 🤯
That's not that uncommon in animation; almost every major animated series has voice actors voice multiple characters.
Bruh, Tom Kenny is seriously awesome when it comes to voices
this just unlocked a core memory. as my friend stated, "this show existed, but it somehow feel like it doesn't."
@@anotheryoutubeaccount5259 but it doesn't feel like it did. Like mike lou and ogg
So true. Who else didn't remember this great show until seeing this video randomly on TH-cam?
I loved camp Lazlo as a kid, but even i feel thos way
Imagine having camp lazlo as a core memory
Where can I watch it
So the ending is about how the adult in charge is actually an imposter who manages to convince the kids to take off their clothes.
That is incredibly disturbing and dark.
He also convince a entire town too
Oof
Maybe it's a callout on Hollywood? Ha!
@@the120cxx probably 🥶
A, impostor you say? Hmm? Thats kinda, sus
What made this ending weirder for me is there was some camp lazlo marathon when it aired and when this episode ended, it went right to the first episode, reminding you the audience"hey, that other camp counselor was tied up and gagged hidden away the whole series"
The ending kinda makes sense when you take into account how bad at his job Lumpis was. Like he never had any idea what to do was out right abusive and neglectful because he was a deranged lunatic faking who he was the whole time
Okay so I rewatched the show before this recently and I had seen the ending before. What stood out to me, is there is one episode where lumpis is tricked into dressing in a tootoo and dancing in front of the camp entrance when lazlo accidentally convinces the camp he can see the future. So when Lumpis does this, a cop shows up instead and calls in an “escaped insane person” to his radio. It blew me away, made me think maybe the whole thing was set up to foreshadow the end but in a way that wasn’t obvious.
I thought that episode ended with the cop car stopping, and the camp leader from across the lake stepping out and shouting “That’s it, officer! That’s my wig!”
There was another where thought he was about to die and the cop also mentioned a similar line.
Its ironic, I used to love this show as a kid but I never saw the ending, never even knew it had a formal ending episode, I love it
I thought it ended with that special where they look for the head scoutmaster and find an old kidney bean all this time I never even saw this I wonder if there's any evidence of lumpus not being a real scoutmaster in the rest of the series
@@joesimpson9998 Same, that seemed like a much more appropriate finale for the series. This ending feels way too out of the blue.
That's not how irony works bro
Never got to see the ending for this show. My dad cut our Dish network service smfh
@@timothyih8674 It is actually is a fine example of irony. He said he loved the show yet didn't know it had an ending. You would think someone who loves a show would know of its ending, but he didn't meaning the opposite of what we'd exepct occurred. That's totally in line with the literary definition of irony.
I still can’t believe Tom Kenny voiced Lumpus AND Slinkman. That blew my mind when I found that out. They’re so different. I didn’t even consider that possibility
Slinkman kind of sounds like Spongebob's dad c:
The show kept to a fairly small voice cast. There were five main male actors (Carlos Alazraqui, Jeff Bennett, Tom Kenny, Doug Lawrence, and Steve Little) and two main female voice actors (Jodi Benson and Jill Talley) and two recurring female voice actors (Jennifer Hale and Tara Strong).
Tom Kenny was no stranger to talking to himself.
I would give a lot of money for spondgebob, Lumpus, slinkman, and commander peepers to all having a conversation with each other. THAT will be funny.
Funnily enough, it also has a lot of Spongebob sounds that were used in this series as well.
Honestly never realized how consistent the art style is between this and Rocko’s modern life
Same!!! I see it now that it’s been mentioned and now I’m sad I never paid more attention to this show lol
Modern SpongeBob even has a slight resemblance to it, though it's also due to ex-Ren & Stimpy animators working on the show in the modern seasons.
This ending opened up a lot of disturbing theories as to Lumpus’s motives, especially seeing as he clearly sucked at being scoutmaster and even hated the position. Why exactly does a middle aged moose want to waste his summer hanging out with children???
I remember the Halloween episode. I think he wanted free housing and solitude for the majority of the year and thought he could handle a few months of kids. That and/or he wanted that female scoutmaster nearby and thought being a scoutmaster was the best way to hook up
I think he genuinely thought he'd get some peace and quiet (which seems to be the only thing he's interested in throughout the show) and didn't realize how involved he'd have to be with the kids, which was what he didn't want.
I never got the vibe he was interested in the kids.
I think its because he's imitating a scout master that people have decided to take it there. Which is dumb because scouts really isn't like that for most people.
@@No1tgffgh so he's more of a Squidward but with terrible perceivable execution.
Well fake or not sending kids to be with a stranger is always a potential danger. There are teachers that have sex with there students. And camp workers that have done the same. So yah there are other creepy ways this show could of ended
i mean, he hated the children too so its not the reason you are baiting the assumption of.
This ending honestly never sat right with me, as I swear Lumpy's been mentioned as a scoutmaster for years. Especially since Commander Hoo Ha seemed so familiar with Lumpus, and Slinkman makes it seem like they've worked together basically forever.
That only implies he managed to pass off as a Scoutmaster for YEARS
Hoo Ha constantly said his name wrong implying he doesn't pay attention to Lumpus
The last episode seems more like a what-if scenario that isn't canon with the rest of the show, just like the second part of the Halloween episode. It's possible that this episode exists in a parallel universe that's not connected to the rest of the series.
It implies he might also stole the identity of the real Lumpus the scoutmaster.
@@Steir12 or the time travelers were fucking with everyone
I remember watching this episode as a kid without even knowing that this is the final episode or even knowing the show ended,
I was so confused by this ending that I thought it was just a gag and next episode would reset things to status quo, especially since a lot of Cartoon Network shows does this 🙃
same.
Same as well.
Same boat didn't realize this was the end
Yep, I was right there with ya
Plus Lazlo says he can't wait to come back.
So even if thigns didn't reset I thought this was an effort to basically refresh the cast with a new scout master and some new campers as the next season would take place next summer.
I didn't know this was just ... the final end. I hate how cable/sattelite TV doesn't bother to mention when something is the final episode.
There’s something oddly comforting about how this absurd little story turned out to be for many people an effective PSA about not blindly trusting authority figures and the chance of them not being what they seem.
Me before watching this : “Why was this show buried so deep in my mind”
After watching : “Oh, yep”
Facts, I clicked on this video because i thought "i think i remember watching camp lazlo" then i watched the video and I started to remember a lot of things.
I don't know if it's just me but I've always liked the idea of Lumpus impersonating a scoutmaster because he was madly in love with Jane and would do anything to get close with her
This actually makes sense.
I kinda felt bad for Lumpus in a weird way. He never got together with Jane nor did Lazlo with that girl scout. I always seen to root for the new relationships in cartoons for some reason (or at least I use to).
@@kristopherhayes486 There was an episode where Lumpus married Jane.
I randomly saw this episode once and I was like "wow that's really weird". And then years later I found out this was the final episode and that just got even weirder.
I remember being so shocked, confused, and felt like my whole life was a lie because of the ending. It actually made me wary of adults around me for awhile because I realized I trusted adults blindly and was scared something messed up like this would happen to me somehow...
To be fair all summer camps have a revelation that one of the counselors was a lunatic/imposter at least every few years or so. I sat next to one at lunch for about a week, so I feel like it fits with the whole summer camp experience
Congratulations on completing a full 25 days of this. It's incredible you managed to pull this off.
Thank you so much! I appreciate your support 😄
I love both of you
Holy kermole he actually did
@@JordanFringe94 What was the name of the episode where the scout handbooks was swapped? Ik someone told me at one point but idr!
Camp Lazlo's Halloween episode was the creepiest one I've seen for kids. At the end it implies that the main characters were killed and replaced with clay duplicates that start dripping
drip
That was the Halloween episode? I thought it was just a regular episode. Man that ending was so creepy. The way Sampson caught that on Lazlo and then they all just nervously laugh it even freaked out Edward and then the screen goes black to the scouts screaming. Gives me the eerie feeling.
I always imagined what if that had been the Series ending... how fucking dark it would've been.
Yeah. Funny how it says Adam was made from clay by God. It fits gnosticism. That god made the material world. Trapping our souls in the fake body until our time runs out/lose our souls. The parallel is they're dripping/melting. Like the sun does to us
Could you imagine sending your kids to summer camp and finding out all of the councillors aren't even councillors.
An interesting fun fact: The idea for the plot twist came from Tom Kenny, who was the voice of Scout Master Lumpus in the show!
SpongeBob
Of course it was Tom Kenny. That guy is ALWAYS instigating, whether as Spongebob or Starscream.
I like how the ending of this episode just completely writes Slinkman out of the scene, because there would be too many questions if he had to witness this, considering how many years he knew Lumpus.
I think that has to do with being beaten by the imposter Lumpus the night before all this happened. Over clean clothes man this character was out there.
Slink Man was always sort of a Yes Man. Maybe he was afraid he'd be next?
What makes this ending weirder is that Lumpus HATED being Scoutmaster.... and then this.
WOAH WOAH WOAH!!! Let me get this perfectly straight: You comment something that is completely unrelated to the fact that I have two HAZARDOUSLY HANDSOME girlfriends? Considering that I am the unprettiest TH-camr worldwide, it is really incredible. Yet you did not mention it at all. I am VERY disappointed, dear za
@@AxxLAfriku I am disappointed someone like you was born into this world.
@@Synthesyn342 That fucker is everywhere. Just ignore him, because you know trolls just want attention.
@@Aego384 yeah. I know. That just really ticks me off.
@@AxxLAfriku Bow down to lord AxxL... and his two-oddly-handsome girlfriends. I guess
Honestly with how many well-known and beloved icons from my youth are being revealed as actually terrible people all along I'm kind of grateful with how Camp Lazlo prepped me for it with Lumpus's betrayal lmao
Aww chiaki ^^ Favourite character in Danganronpa
Scoutmaster exposing himself inappropriately to Scouts seems like an... odd... choice, especially for that era where that hit close to home
I still can't get over the ending. It's genuinely scary, lol.
What the hell this is nuts
The ending sounds like a lost episode creepypasta.
@@BrandonVout Yeah, seems like it, lol.
@@BrandonVout I don’t see any hyper realistic blood
@@sebastiansepulveda547 look inside yourself, you might find some.
It’s weird because they could have ended the show by having being the end of the summer and because of that ending the camp life
That's too obvious, they needed a twist ending.
After the real scout master takes his hat back, you can see Lumpus is still wearing it after it cuts to him getting thrown into the ambulance. Just noticed that.
I remember watching this finale alone at 8 and freaking out so hard. I was yelling and exclaiming to my mom from the kitchen, but she hadn’t watched the show an didn’t understand. I felt like I’d take this secret with me to the grave 😂
The ending bothered me too. I always like to imagine that it always was the real Scout Master Lumpus, and the imposter only replaced him for a week or two. That’s the only way I can think of it to set my mind at ease lol 😂
imposter moment
Well, it’s not like “Principal and the Pauper” levels of stupid, since Skinner liked being Principal but Lumpus hates being Scoutmaster despite the identity theft.
@@robbiewalker2831 true
The ending does make sense, considering at times, Lumpis didn’t know a lot about the camping activities that went on at camp, while Slinkmen did most of the work.
And yet the Scout Commander recognize Lumpus as a Scoutmaster, and legally speaking Lumpus owns the camp as he inherit from his grabdfather from tbe original kidney owner... That is so messed up.
Exactly. It actually makes a lot of sense when you look back at all of his actions.🤔
@@franciscorafaelmontielpale7854He could have fabricated the story of ownership. He is resourceful when he wants to be.
This ending would make the rewatch of the series feel like a run of a true crime documentary, but it never gets to the murder.
I genuinely love Camp Lazlo. On so many levels these characters were so relatable. My absolute favorite episode is the hot dog episode. The rhino (i can't remember his name) is constantly making mustard and during a fight between Lazlo him and Raj, his eyes are yellow and he yells "Stop Yellowing!"
Gets me everytime xD
The rhino was named Clam.
To think Heffer was actually gonna have his own spin-off series around him despite not being part of cartoon Network and Instead still part of Nickelodeon. *Planet Sheen, anyone?*
He technically did have his own spin off show. It just literally got highjacked by Lumpus.
@@azathoththe3rd Er meh gheard I think you might be on ta sumdin buddy boi
Planet Sheen just didn't make any sense. Sheen is the type of character that's good as a background character but not a good main character. He worked off of his friends Carl and Jimmy, which made their dynamic work. Also, why didn't they make another season of Jimmy Neutron!? Like come ON!!
@@kristopherhayes486 The studio went under.
@@WarpChaos why not just give the rights of the show to a different studio own by Nick? The Fairy Oddparents animation style would've worked since they had a few crossovers before and the show could've just explained away the animation difference as a gag or experiment gone wrong.
I was a huge Camp Lazlo fan as a kid and even I’ll admit that the ending threw me for a loop. The fact that the real Scoutmaster Lumpus was MIA meanwhile the fake Lumpus pretended to be him the entire time completely threw me off. The ending still shocks me to this day.
My best friend and I watched this show almost from day one. At one point I mentioned how bad of a scout master he was and as a joke I said "he probably killed the real leader and took his place" and continued with that conspiracy the entire run time. When we watched the last episode I felt like a Sherlock Holmes level of genius for literally no reason, because there were absolutely no tells that would hint to that being the case.
Alex Hirsch watching Camp Lazlo’s finale in 2008: “I think I have an idea for a cartoon”
I remember being utterly confused by the ending, as Slinkman had stated and even showed us a flash back of him meeting Lumpus when he first started working there. Yet it seemed like Lumpus was only “working” there for the summer. So it never added up to me. Loved the show though. It was super weird at times.
Im assuming lumpus was a temporary worker so probably threw the real scout master out the picture way before slinkman knew what was going on im assuming.
Also weird since Lumpus basically owns camps Kidney.
Camp Lazlo has been a huge part of my childhood. One time on my Birthday when I was little my mom made me a Lazlo cake, and Cartoon Network showed a marathon of the show. Another memory I had was on Christmas Eve I got Camp Lazlo toys. Lastly was when my brother, and I were at Tampa Bay Comic Con, and we met the voice of Lazlo (Carlos Alazraqui)
Sampson said in the beginning of the show, and a few times after, "it just keeps getting weirder." So it was actually full circle when he said at the end "it can't get any weirder".
This finale gets weirder considering in other episodes it is shown that Lumpus is recogbized as a Scoutmaster even by the top authorities of the Kidney Scouts. Also that he basically owns the camp as his grandfather inherit it because the original owner died and Lumpus grandfather being the nurse of the camp ended up becomung the new owner as nobody wanted the camp (also considering that Lumpus grandfather being now the owner essentially begab to steal stuff from campers and paint it as him confiscating stuff, which was the topic of an episode.)
So its weird that although Lumpus is a certified scoutmaster and is essentially the owner of the camp, that he went all the lenght to do this. Then again he has been shown to be extremely unstable, and to be in love with the Scoutmaster at the ither side of the lake who watches over the female Scouts.
This was a weird way they ended the show. Kinda reminds me of what The Simpsons did with Semore Skinner as it was revealed that he was also actually an imposter! 🕵️
And then went on to pretty much retcon this by never bringing it up (outside of the ocasional meta joke) because the reaction to that was just so overwhelmingly negative.
that's pretty sus
I'm sorry
@@guilhermehank4938 Didn't Groening declare that episode non-canon anyway?
@@geargrinder87 maybe not directly but he did state it is one of his least favorite episodes in the show
AMONGUS
What's weird about the ending revelation... we've seen the head of the camps, the Drill Sargant camp counselor, interact with Lumpus like he is the Scoutmaster.
Meaning he managed to fool the overly strict, by the rules, no nonsense Head Camp Counselor for years.
Well, Hoo-hah was in charge of other more prestigious locations and Lumpus had hijacked the papers that would’ve declared him unfit for further employment as a scoutmaster.
My brain had this memory hidden away SOOOOOO deep inside my mind a completely forgot about all of that until I watched this video. Heck I even came in thinking that I've never seen the ending to CL when, in fact, I very much have.
It's honestly hilarious that the creator was able to get away with this episode
Looking back at it, yeah it does sound really weird that a fake deranged scoutmaster, who kidnapped and locked away the original scoutmaster all summer long, wanted to strip down around the kids AND wanted them to strip down too. That's one of the darkest twists I've ever seen on a CN cartoon
I used to love Camp Lazlo as a kid. And when I found reruns on TV and recorded the series on my DVR and watched them for old times sake.
As for the the show's finale I thought it was pretty bad. I know Camp Lazlo didn't have a proper introduction episode, but come on the show could have ended better than what we got. I do like the twist that Lumpus was not a real scoutmaster though. Maybe the writers could have made a two-parter episode finale, like they did with Where's Lazlo, and have the twist intertwined with a last day of camp type of story.
This was and still is one of my favorite shows. The ending was so weird to me because Lumpus and Slinkman both reminisced on events that took place decades ago, flashbacks in the 1970s.
Based off how Rocko continues years later, I wanna say Camp Lazlo takes place in the future but also, can always be like an alternate universe where they didn't get stranded for like, 20 years in space
2 bad both shows r on different networks cus it would of made a great crossover
There IS scene where a monkey that looks like lazlo and a female elephant that resembles Raj in static shock so it wouldn’t be surprising if the later was Raj’s mom.
Ok, I still got one question though. How does Slinkman play into Lumpus being a fake Scoutmaster? Like, was he secretly in on this, or was he just as surprised as everyone else considering how many years this must have gone on for? I believe it’s more the later, but what are your guy’s thoughts?
Honestly if Slinkman was there it would probably be a more tragic ending. I wouldn't say Slinkman was in on it just because he had a lot of respect for Lumpus as a Scoutmaster. If you really think about it, Slinkman wasn't present after the beatdown so maybe Lumpus beat Slinkman to death or into a coma for nearly exposing his secret identity by taking them to town and the painting clothes idea was probably used as an excuse to keep people from questioning where is Slinkman.

@@jamaalbarnett9186 wow
@@jamaalbarnett9186 Damn...RIP Slinkman.
biting this question kinda hard here but possibly slinkman got hired before he was introduced to the scoutmaster
I literally never seen this final episode. But I remember hating the show initially but at some point it grew on me. I think it was the Rhino character that reeled me in.
Camp Lazlo was like the CN equivalent of SpongeBob in its substance and style. I think that’s why I loved this show so much.
I like that this connects camp lazlo and rocko's modern life together through heffer. That cow is meant to be heffer, and it helps that joe murray created both.
Oh neat! Thanks for mentioning my video!
BTW, Tom Kenny and Joe Murray came up with this twist very early on and it's even foreshadowed in season one, in the episode "The Big Cheese" where a cop dog refers to Lumpus as an "Escapee from some asylum"
Anytime, very awesome work! And oh that's pretty cool, I like that they put some fun thought into it way ahead of time!
I just posted a long comment about this ending and how they should have left some hints in earlier seasons about Lumpus' true identity, but clearly I haven't seen "The Big Cheese" in some time! :D
@@eduardo_corrochio And actually I forgot to mention, it's the very same Dog Cop from "The Big Cheese" who shows up with "Heffer" in "Lumpus' Last Stand."
i loved, loved, loved this cartoon. this was my childhood. thanks for revisiting
This actually dug out a time capsule-like memory deep in my brain. Since this showed aired at like, 3-5 am in my country, I had always thought I dreamed it up or something if I ever briefly recalled the show.
Naked lumpus imposter was iconic and dirt mind blown moment for me as a kid.
The ending caught me off guard. Camp Lazlo was fun to watch.
Why do I see you every where
Camp Lazlo was one of those shows that I would watch with my brother, because it did remind me so much of Rocko's Modern Life. However, I went to college before seeing the ending, and just... wow. I have so many words floating around my head to describe this emotion, but none of them fit.
Thanks for sharing the ending with us!
you just made me remember this cartoon, I remember relatively little and nothing, maybe 10 years have passed, if not a little more but I enjoyed watching it
Want to know what’s weirder The ending was something Tom Kenny came up with doing a recording Session And Joe let it happen because it’s tied up the character nicely
I can't believe the 25 days of Fringemas is almost over, you've become a part of my routine and I'll miss the daily uploads.
It truly is a very bizarre ending. Throughout the show you would never guess he was an imposter. Very out of left field lol
I remember watching this episode when I was a kid. And the next day turned on to only see that it was gone. I thought where did it go? But continued watching whatever was on the schedule wondering what happened to it until I forgot about it until now, thank you for reminding.
Fun fact, I originally apparently didn't see the finale when it aired either, watching it I think a few years after but only catching the last minute or two. I knew nothing about the painted on clothes, just that for some reason everyone was naked and Lumpus turning out to not be a regular horrible at his job adult but a deranged maniac(who is also horrible at his job). It's always felt a little unreal of an ending and seeing the plot of the rest of the episode doesn't really help that feeling.
It may be a placebo effect because it's been so many years, but reading this I had something similar happening to me, but instead of the last minutes it was more of a few seconds. I saw everyone naked and then they left. I was like, damn I missed an episode, and a weird one at that.
The real question what did lumpus GET OUT OF THIS!?!? He was miserable the entire show what did he get out of it !?!
Being around children...
@@yizbelenigh ewww I mean didn’t he want to be grand le goon or something ?
Thanks for the little clips of camp lazlo I haven’t seen since 2005-2008 makes me feel young again
Dude this was one of my favourite shows ever, and i had no idea it got a final episode lol thats a mind blowing ending i love it
NGL I forgot the plot of this episode was painted clothing. But yeah, it's Heffer! So glad you mentioned the alternate ending with the original design. I'm glad you thoroughly enjoyed this episode and can't wait for that finale you've been leading up to!
P.S. Thank you for the shout out!!!
Thanks so much man and anytime! 😄
I watch a little of Camp Lazlo while it aired and the fact that there was no true hints or clues that Lumpus was a true impostor and not just erratic or crazy was just mind blogging.
I’ll watch all the ages because i love the way you have the opening and closing for a commercial break
The classic CN commercial break starts and endings, put a smile on my face. Thank you!!
Anything Joe Murray makes is just charming, he currently has a show on PBS called Let’s Go Luna.
NO FUCKING WAY, MY BABY SISTER WATCHES THAT ALL THE TIME, AND I USED TO WATCH CAMP LAZLO A LOT TOO. JESUS THIS GUY SETS UP CHILDREN WITH GOOD SHOWS
One of my favorites. My mind was blown when I first saw this episode, and it left me with more questions than answers.
I think Filburt also makes a pseudo cameo appearance in the show. One of the members of the grand legume council was blue, wore dark shades, and appeared to have a hunchback, probably from the cloak hiding his shell. He of course was older in appearance as well. I think it's the same voice for the character as well.
"These pancakes are terrible."
And I just remembered his name out of nowhere because I haven't watched the show since I was a kid.
It helps that Filburt's voice actor is on the show as Edward. In fact, I think all three of the main actors were on this show.
I love how you have alk od the old commercials brings back memories
I remember this episode vividly, but I had no idea it was the finale
To explain the rain not affecting their painted clothes plothole: There is an underlying theory that I have that without the distraction of the time travelers in the initial timeline, Lumpus started off the advancement of their civilization immediately, to the point that they wouldn’t have been affected by weather with their advanced technology.
In this timeline, now that they were interrupted by the time travelers, the rain set in before they could begin any meaningful advancement.
Or because it’s just a cartoon 🤪
This show was like a fever dream 😂
This show really managed to capture the feel of classic Spongebob
Oh my gosh! I remember this last episode! It was so weird and memorable, strangely enough. Then again, part of the charm of the entire show was how weird it was. This episode is also much weirder looking back at it as an adult compared to watching it as a kid.
Camp Lazlo's ending was definitely a weird one. I watched Camp Lazlo before I knew about Rocko's Modern Life, so the ending was even more bizarre lol
The police officer wanting to join in on the body painting with the other campers is the funniest and boldest joke I’ve ever heard on this show.
Wow dude, you really just opened up a big ol can of nostalgia, i used to always watch this.
I liked Camp Lazlo a lot growing up. I remember first seeing a trailer for it in a movie theater. It's a show I'd like to revisit, I wish they would put it on HBO Max.
Weirdly enough with how wacky episodes were I think I saw this one sooner and thought this was just a solo episodic episode to know this the ending makes it more horrifying lol.
This episode is the definition of "wow that escalated quickly"
You pulled this show from the deepest darkest recesses of my mind lol I barely remember this show but loved it when I first watched it
Dude I love your videos so much keep up the great work
One of the greatest CN shows out there. I agreed. The way this series ended was very strange and crazy here.
Camp Lazlo was the best cartoon for me to kick back and laugh at. Such good memories.
I...remember that episode. I had no idea it was the finale at the time.
2:54 I completely forgot this moment existed and when I tell you I laughed at 12 at night and woke everyone up in my house *I LAUGHED*
