  • The early 2000's brought us a lot of cartoons that unfortunately didn't last too long, becoming a weird or obscure memory you hold on to for the rest of your life. That's the case here with Yakkity Yak, a show left forgotten by time only remembered by its theme song! So, here's why you barely remember Yakkity Yak!

    What other obscure cartoons or shows can you barely remember but never forgot? (Also, I know the theme song is based off the original song by The Coasters, part of why this theme song is so memorable).

      The Xs is a work of irony considering it ended up becoming obscure, and the BOM had terrible execution but a good concept.

    Fun fact: the theme song was actually written by The Coasters in 1959. I remember this from reading _The Watsons Go to Birmingham_ in the seventh grade, because it's Kenny's favorite song. I used it in a project where I had to create a soundtrack for a hypothetical movie adaptation.
    I don't know if it's because of the show or because the teacher played it in class, but I nicknamed my friend, Zak "Yakitty Yak." Him not liking the name made it really funny.

      An interesting note about Corneil & Bernie: Even though it originally aired and ended in the 00s, they were actually renewed for a second season, which aired around 2014. The bad news was that they *seriously* cut corners going from traditional frame-by-frame, to being Flash animated. It was surprisingly faithful in style and tone, but a lot of the charm was lost in its animation.

    Might as well throw in a comment about an obscure mid-2000's cartoon I remember but seemingly nobody else did: Pecola!

It was a 3d animated show where the main character is a penguin, and everyone had cube-shaped heads. I loved watching it before I got ready for school, but it was taken off the air rather quickly from what I remember.

    You nailed it. I barely remember this cartoon, although the setting and characters feel incredibly familiar. It also makes me feel nostalgic. Not for the show itself, but the early 2000s, when there were dozens of new cartoons competing against each other and most were at the very least somewhat entertaining.

    Nicktoons in 2004 was basically like watching 90's Nickelodeon. Except for the three imported Nicktoons that started in other countries. Kaput and Zosky, Corneil and Bernie, and Yakkity Yak.
    Of these three, Kaput and Zosky was best. I wasn't crazy about Yakkity Yak. My friend told me he hated it when we went to school and I brought it up. It wasn't a great show, it was a little goofy for my taste. I actually remember the show pretty well, and could reference a few gags on the show.
    Despite it's lackluster ranking in my head, the worst show on Nicktoons TV in 2004 would still kick the ass of most shows they put on today.
