Sullivan absolutely loosing it at Cheeky Puss has me rolling OMG his head is a tomato I can't
I surely thought he might actually scanners for a moment
The reason Blair doesn't know Top Cat is that, despite Top Cat being an American cartoon, it was not NEARLY as famous in the USA as it was in the UK, where apparently it was played all the time. In the USA, it was just one of dozens (if not hundreds) of Hanna Barbera cartoons that didn't get seen much after its original airing. Nobody in the USA even remembers Top Cat ever existed (except those of us who have specialized knowledge).
I felt for Blair in that moment because I have also never heard of Top Cat
Hanna Barbera cartoons were shown a lot on Boomerang; Jetsons, Flintstones, and Yogi were on a lot more than other cartoons. That being said, Top Cat wasn't nearly on Boomerang as much as the others. Then, as time went on, the shows that were on Cartoon Network moved to Boomerang, thus phasing it out almost completely. Dad is still surprised I know of and watched Snorks and Snagglepuss
wow really? I'm only 20 but I would recognise Top cat anywhere, he was boomerang all the time for me as a kid! didn't know he was like.... niche lmfaoo
I had no name recognition. I did a quick google search, and I remember seeing him show up on bumpers and little short bits on Cartoon Network. Never watched the show or even really knew what he was from.
certainly remember topcat, alot of those HB cartoons ended up on the USA channel in the early 90's(I think)
I think instead of Calamities, the game designers should have called them CAT-ASTROphies, and instead of 11, they had 9 (as in 9 lives)
The 11 confused me as cats have 9
As they say, when you fall from a great height and land on your feet, the last thing to go through your mind is your kneecaps.
Kneecaps is not the word that is usually used...
@@spankyjeffro5320 I chose to use the more PG quote from discworld.
If you don't know what you're doing Sullivan then nobody can know what you're doing and if nobody knows what you're doing, then you must be winning
He who controls the catnip, controls the universe
The catnip must flow.
Power over catnip is power over all
Lead them to the Litter Box
"Open the catnip doors Hal."
"....I can't do that Fluffles."
Kind patreons, do a solid for a broke, yet devoted nrb fan and vote for Cheese Thief if it's a choice! it's such a classic
100% agree with this!
If i were a patreon i would say im on it
Unfortunately both Cheese Thief and Cosmic Encounter are not options for the vote. If I could I would've found a way to vote for both.
@@Capt740 aw :'(
@@Capt740 which games are options?
Missed opportunity, yarntopia should have been called Yarnia
13:37 and 14:05 Sulie losing it with uncontrollable laugh in the bkg is such a classic and I love it :)
I will never not like a BGC that features Tilly.
so glad Blair is in this episode, this game has her written all over it
They're all absolutely unhinged in this episode and I'm loving it.
Can't afford the Patreon but I'll be shocked if Betrayal doesn't make the list. Both recent Betrayal videos have been my absolute favourites.
It's not on the list. And I'll spill some secret patreon knowledge...some in the channel do NOT like playing betrayal.
@@JonE335 betrayal didn't make the list because they played it like 3 times already. Cosmic encounter also didn't make the list even though everyone loves it.
*insert witty remark related to this episode of Board Game Club here*
But damn, I was always looking for a channel like this where a group gathers around to play board games and have fun (cue people telling me of such channels). SU&ST used to fill that dice shaped void in my heart.
Nahh... NRB is the best one
Before I found this channel, Geek and Sundry's Tabletop was my fix for watching people have fun playing board games
@@turnipcrazy I miss that. I also miss Spellslingers. G&S kind of just... died when they switched to a livestreaming/paywall focus, in my opinion, and that saddens me.
Polygon’s Overboard used to fill that hole in my heart before I found NRB personally! although I admit I haven’t watched it for a couple of years, the early episodes are still definitely classics and worth checking out! def has the vibes of an American NRB to me
@@vampirelibrarian777 Aren't they mostly Canadian?
My first cat was called Pussy. It was a wild adopted stray. I vaguely rememer how they looked with their little white socks. They were super protective I'm told. Always camping out under our strollers and attacking anything that disturbed us sleeping and caused us to cry. Lashing out at invading gechos and spiders etc. It got its name because dad refused to stand at the front door at night shouting out "Sylvester" every evening as that would make him look silly. "Puss, Puss, Puss!" was much better.
Silly Sullivan, I'm with John with this
😊
American here. saw a license plate yesterday starting with NRB, said oh cool No Rolls Barred, and realized I’m a fan.
Ah yes, the best kinds of games! Jon pushing his luck with his notoriously unfortunate gambler's luck!!!
24:00 As a NZ listener, thank you for the clarification and we're very relieved.
autocatically saw Laurie as the Harkonnen-cats of this universe 😅this is what the pets in Dune get up to while no ones looking
I am so glad they didnt censor 90% of this episode after Jon's story about his aunt. It very well could hace been XD
Also a fan edit with censors would be hilarious.
Jon: Sully is a strategic genius! How does he do it?!
Sully*elevator musak*
Cheese Thief and Citadels are the first ones that come to mind when I think of favorite episodes
Moleman voice: I was saying Boo-lair.
WOOO ITS THE BEST TIME OF THE WEEK!!!! ITS BOARD GAME CLUB!!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤
Absolute top (cat) level banter during this one. Hilarious
Jon’s auntie story is so wholesome
Ground control to Major Tomcat...
I'll be very disappointed if no one uses the line. "I am the captain MEOW".
I would love to see Jon have a re-match with Citadels!
Sully calling it by saying this would be the best video they've ever done should have been a given the second Jon led off saying he shit his pants right before the game started. 😂
Its incredible how red in the face sully gets in a matter of mere moments
What a fun push your luck game!!! And boy, did you guys not fail to make it hilarious! 👍👍 😂😂
This is a video of the year candidate. So good.
Ryanair definitely pulling any future sponsorship deals
What was the initial joke on Ryanair
Seems to me like the game should end after nine calamities. (After all, everyone knows cats have nine lives.) Anyway, Imma shut up now and watch the game.
Laurie's last flight is goddamn magnificent 😂
I haven't thought about Top Cat in over 30 years. Thanks for the reminder.
Look forward to these so much guys! Thanks a ton for the great content! Blood on the Clocktower is our favorite to tune into at the house but we love all the videos! 😊
The fact that I will be in my 60’s by the time that when this game takes place would be then current😂😂
Laurie's cats are the ones that used to belong to the family of Laurie's dives that kept drawning under the sea near the submarine. pparently they picked up some habbits from their former masters xD
This video is how I learned that TOPCAT, an astronomy software package that I use regularly in my job, was stylized after a cartoon. 😸
I (an American) also learned about the cartoon from using TOPCAT! 😹 Though for me someone told me about it when I started using it in grad school a few years ago, and that was in Australia so it might've been more popular over there. Apparently the logo even when I started using it was a picture of the eponymous cartoon character, and only recently changed to be more generic.
You get the cats back and can send them an new missions when the ship crashes so they are in fact fine.
Okay, I think I need MLEM Space Agency in my life. I don't play board games in person very often, but I could quickly set up a webcam and do all board moves for the players in a Discord video call maybe.
In space no one can here you meow!
42:18 is definitely how you play this game as #3, #4 and #5....
🎵 "Yes he's the chief, he's the king, but above everything... he's the most tip top -- *🎺dun-dun-dun-dun🎺* -- Top Cat!" 🎵
Top Cat was also called Boss Cat for a time. I think it was one of several cartoons (e.g. Hair Bear Bunch) that were lossely based on the Sgt Bilko show.
Its just so much fun, seeing you having fun.
Huh, I would have thought Blaire would want to become a diamond when she passes. Maybe a cat shaped diamond, to honor our cat overlords
Picked up MLEM at Bournemouth Beach Head this year, its a great fun game, really high quality and very reasonably priced. Highly recommend it!
The "No......" at 6:59. I felt that deeply 😂
I can't believe Blair has never heard of Top Cat
I was shocked she hadn't seen it; an all time classic cartoon
I can believe it, where I grew up (near Washington DC) Top Cat was only occasionally seen in episodes of Wacky Racers -- his show having long been canceled. And that was back in the '80s, before she was born.
Are we sure Top Cat is American? I'm 31 and never heard of it. Blair and I are both from the same region too.
@@evilbob840 Fair enough. In the UK it was on TV well after the 80's
@@rivergreen1727 Have you heard of Hanna-Barbera?
50:42 Not thinking before acting is the most cat-like thing Sullivan could have done!
I'm only 12 minutes in, so maybe they make this joke later, but shouldn't getting off the ship be called Disem-meow-ing?
I hope people vote for Six Nimmt
I don't think I've ever laughed so hard at a video
It wasn't an option.
@@JonE335 Nooooo! What were the options?
*Tips hat* M'LEM
Would love to see more Cosmic Encounters! So many character combinations lend to so much replayability! Could even do some kind of Cosmic Encounters league with multiple smaller games for a championship or Lord of the Board!
I love the new intro havent watched in a few weeks while if its not new lol
As a broke high school teacher, please benevolent patrons remember Western Legends and Cheese Thief. I beg of you.
You know you're in for a good time when everyone just falls apart within the first 20 minutes!
I wonder if the patreon group could select to make a villainous four-player game. The Lord of the board version being one-on-one doesn't really let the chaos a full game shows its face
I have a feeling we're gonna get a month of social deduction games and I couldn't be happier
13:34 the beginning of the Sullivan reddening.
If Sully doesn't turn red at some point then it's just not a classic NRB episode
“you getting off, king?” -tilly steele
Did Laurie really just do the "YOU DONT HAVE 5 DOLLARS" speech
10:50 Blaire wants to be turned into a cat tree. It all makes sense!
yall didnt play with personal objectives and the bonus markers for rocket spaces, the first time i taught this game i also forgot to play with the rocket space markers and the difference is massive. with the rocket markers you can refresh dice, move 4 spaces, and get additional points, the first two making the trip to deepspace a lot easier
I did the math on that. The odds of rolling any given result on any one of 6d6 is about 66.5%.
'Catstronaut' was such a missed opportunity
I'll be voting for Hot bucket Cold bucket for the replay!!!!
At 54:24, Jon moved 4 and both Blair and Tilly got off on a moon but when Jon rolled again the ship was way back on the board. Am I missing something?
Could be the camera changing positions on the board? That threw me a few times but if you look at the numbers they land on it all checks out.
52:18 Sulli coffing after what Jon said 🤣
If I was a patreon id vote for Moonrakers. I also welcome new IV games on the channel
I'm with Blair... wtf is top cat? did you guys get the cartoons that didn't make it in America?
To be fair at least with Earth Cats can fall from anywhere and so long as they hit land they will be fine.
I for one look forward to the third episode of Cosmic Encounter
Natalie Imbruglia - Torn (Official Video) - the text: "soft upbeat music", a contrast to the lyrics definitely.
To be fair, there are a LOT of songs that have upbeat music and really depressing lyrics. Sad songs with sad music never (usually) sell as well
Jon has an erratic record with space games. Will it continue?
The answer is yes.
Strikes me fhat much like Felinia, the cat thing is a gimmick rather an integral part of the game. At least they embrace it with fish and wool planets, Felinia your a merchant selling silks, wood, ect, and there are cats. 😂
Ah, yes, "Curiosity killed the cat", the game.
still would like the group to play maybe a couple of the scenarios/chapters of The Initiative which is shown in the background
Never heard of this, looks incredible
Does a cat land on it's feet if a slice of buttered toast is taped to its back?
the universe implodes I think
Does the answer depend upon whether the cat is also in a box?
Huzzah, it’s New Board Game Club Day! NRB always finds ways to brighten up my week! I’m currently trying to catch up on the King’s Dilemma campaign, hopefully I can do that tomorrow!
Why would you ever disembark with the parachute cat? You will always land on a planet or moon, so why not try to shoot for the endspace?
Great game, thanks for sharing!
First you traumatize holly with spots, now Blair
I see what you’re doing! You’re trying to get rid of the furries!
20 mins in it seems they all signed non-compete agreements
The only cat cartoon worth knowing is Swat Cats
All games voted for will be 'House Rules' 😂
I'm gonna assume communopoly will rise again
Yes I have been asking for this game
Yaaaassss!!! I've been eagerly waiting for this one!!! ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉
Oh this is going to be a proper blast!
Do you have a past video on the game The Prodigal Club by Vladimir Suchy and Smallworld by Phillippe Keyaerts. By the way love your videos.
its even crazy the fact that the only american doesnt know what top cat is when it was an american cartoon
dont have patreon but i hope someone votes for Paranormal Detectives and Concept!
They should play explodeing kittens if they haven’t already it’s a card game not a board game but it would still be funny to watch
Yes, the game night!
