Scrat: don't worry Molly, now you can kiss and hug that pillow with Oli's face while you are in your underwear in total privacy in your room M: hey! How many times did you see me do that? S: several...you should put a note that you are busy or something
Haha yeah! Also I have no doubt that years in the future when both scratch and Molly die, they'll be best friends again. Scratch's memories aren't gone forever and no way Molly would forget befriending scratch, especially since it was the day she moved to Brighton!
The endings of both Amphibia and The Ghost and Molly McGee are very sad with the main friend duos going their separate ways. I have to agree with you with Anne and Sprig being forced to go their separate ways because Anne and her other 2 friends, Sasha and Marcy, had only one way back to Earth. And also with Molly and Scratch choosing to go their separate ways because Scratch regained his memories and finds out he's not really dead and Molly encouraged him to go back into his body and live his life. I still wish The Ghost and Molly McGee got a season 3.
This video does make a fair point about omega Domino's role in Anne's goodbye to the Plantar family and Amphibia, but the series always made it feel like Anne leaving Amphibia and the Plantar family was inevitable. I still enjoy both finales of these shows and both sets of goodbyes.
Amphibia is IMO , way more emotional and still open to a possible return to that world. Ghost and Molly McGee aside from me wanting more story between the 2nd to last and last episode, felt like a solid END to that series. A series that COULD continue as "Molly McGee and friends" but would no longer be "The Ghost and Molly McGee" unless we kill some one off and that would be kind of dark. I would love to bring the characters back but we could never see Scratch and 12 year old Molly reunited. At least Anne and Sprig could maybe see each other again if Terry gets a portal to work. Or if an other magical some thing or an other gets dug up. A better comparison I think is Scratch vs Grunkle Stan, who had the better ending? also I would argue Scratch was "Killed off"
I 100% agree with your point that it would weird to continue the show after “The End” but with the way that episode is written, it’s almost entirely separate from the reset of season 2. Like literally none of the events from “Jinx vs. The Ghost World” were acknowledged and honest to god could have taken place ANYWHERE after “Nightmares on Fright Street”. You could really just move the episode from season 2 and make it the season 3 finale which no real short comings. So theoretically the show COULD continue if they simply decided to change the episode order.
Amphibia's whole thing was change, and change shows how things don't last forever, so it makes sense that Anne and Sprig separated their ways. While TGAMM's thing was about living life (I think), and it ended with Scratch choosing to life again. So, I think both finales work well for their respective shows.
Im pretty sure tgamms lesson was both of them cuz of scratch never being able to remember molly and that we should learn that we have to move on cuz theres just some things just dont go your way ig
So, to simplify , Amphibia's separation had a plot hole, while Molly MGee didn't. In Amphibia, the god could have given Anne more power crystals, but we never have a proper explanation why they chose not and why they gave the crystals to the Amphibians to begin with. Even if it was explained, it was weak, so we have a plot hole. But that's the thing, Molly Mgee is a slice of life show with a little magical side to it. Amphibia is an Isekai. It is generally easier for MollyMgee to write characters separation because they have only one world, one timeline, so their story structure is much simpler, which makes it stronger. While in Amphibia, there's 2 worlds, 2 timelines at least and and generally, the world and story structure is more complicated. If creators had more time and less shenanigans from Disney executives, I am sure they could have written it better. Either way, they did great. And, it's a reminder to us that you dont need an ideal polished story to make a cartoon, comics, or a book. Because a published story is better than the ideal one that just lives in your head.
Over all I like the the first season of The Ghost and Molly McGee, but i wasn't the biggest fan of season 2. But that ending did make me tear up, and I don't normally tear up during tv finale.
Amphibia is my favorite Disney cartoon, and that's coming from a guy who grew up in the 2000s were there were always great cartoon, and my second favorite is the Owl House, but I love the ghost and Molly Mcgee so much, both shows endings were amazing and got some tears out of me, so did the Owl House ending.
While I agree that Omega Domino amounted to little more than a plot device, I think the virtually permanent separation between humans and Amphibians was inevitable even if the writing was more organic and less forced by OD. The choice to split up in TGAMM was a really nice perspective shift though. Immediately after All In first aired, right around when I first joined the Amphibia wiki, my most constant prediction, however THT would play out, was that there would be a permanent separation no matter what. Yes, I wish there was more of a choice to separate, but maybe the lesson is that there's not always a choice in the matter of separating. Sometimes, the healthy thing is to play the cards you're dealt and accept the path that's been laid out for you, no matter how little leeway there is.
Between these two shows, I'm thoroughly sick and tired of bittersweet endings, so much so that I've decided not to watch Moon girl and Devil Dinosaur for fear it will have one.
Man, both shows didn’t deserve to be cancelled and added at least ONE more season to wrap up some plot points (What happened in Newtopia in the aftermath, and what life would be like for Molly and co. after Scratch leaves.) But the tearjerker endings (and the shows in general) were one of my top favorites in my Top 10 alongside Gravity Falls, the Owl House, Ninjago, ATLA, and The Loud House (mainly the movie, but some episodes of the show as well).
Good video. Maybe you could make a short video theorizing about the cliff hanger of Marcy's journal as I believe it gives a very very slim chance for amphibia to get a possible movie.
I love both endings of these shows it is such a fantastic memory to have to teach it to future generations and the means of going out and live, if that makes sense ❤
i just rewatched the molly mcgee goodbye scene. it didn't make me cry for some reason, but it did make me sad. i can't remember what my first reaction to the amphibia finale was, but i feel like that one hit a little harder. i don't know, the molly mcgee one feels like a goodbye for now, while amphibia feels like a goodbye forever. although with amphibia, they did get to amphibia from earth without the box, so there is a slim chance there. and mollly mcgee, i suppose it's like a toy story 3 thing, that you don't know for sure if they will meet up or when they'll meet up again. but it feels like more of a hard choice to help a friend, even if it means you'll lose touch with them for some time.
I think Ghost and Molly McGee would’ve improved with more buildup to its ending of scratch and Molly going their separate ways. With Amphibia, we knew from the beginning that anne and sprig might eventually have to say goodbye just because they live in separate worlds. Ghost and Molly McGee only had one episode to show scratch’s past and then immediately have him go back to living. I would’ve liked more episodes in between scratch regaining his memories just to have the characters contemplate what it would mean for scratch to go back to living and potentially not remember them. Although that might be disneys fault for canceling the show. Maybe season 3 would’ve had more episodes to think about whether the risk of scratch living and forgetting Molly is worth it or not.
my idea for how I would end TGAMM is Scratch would realise he has a better life as a Wraith but would still choose to meet up with Adia again and in order to do that he reveals the existence of Ghosts to the world, setting up future plot points and villains (this is a universe where The End was S2's finale and S3 wasn't cancelled)
Yeah that honestly makes a lot of sense and really could’ve been the actual series finale since it would’ve concluded the story we already had but would’ve left the door open for more stories if a continuation ever happened.
If i had to pick, and mond you both endings are really really strong in their own way, molly mcgee had a slightly tighter punch to its ending. And weirdly, as bittersweet it was, it honestly is sweeter looking back.
the difference I feel about the endingds of both shows is that while amphibia had to end like that because that's how uzura I mean fantasy stories typically end (while giving us that 'change is a part of life buillshit'), the ghost and molly mcgee felt like it was more keeping with teh rules of it's univserse, as well as shwoing that despite everything Scratch subconsciously still remembers his afterlife
Here's what I don't understand about Amphibia: they *know* how to create a portal from earth to Amphibia. There is nothing stopping them from making a new portal now that it's destroyed. Yes, it uses a crazy amount of power, but if that's the only cost, that's very manageable. It seems likely Anne would be be able to return in her lifetime.
@@aertnadle2466If it not explained in the series it doesn’t count, that’s just bad writing because they could’ve taken 1-2 minutes from the ending or from “Escape To Amphibia” to explain that A show/movie has to explain by itself everything you need to know and if you are still wanting some more content to have a better understanding of the world then you can buy the book that can contain references to the show, but it’s not a tool to fix what you couldn’t explain before
@@luisfernandoleonzayas2979 Yes, because Matt totally had 100% control over the show and wasn't working under a control-freak of a company like Disney....
@@andrewmathewson341 Of course, because having a 2 minutes dialogue that says “Oh, the portal doesn’t seems to turn up unless Anne is closer, I wonder why that is?” Was a difficult thing to do, I can understand some of the problems that a show can have because of the producers, but that was not one of them, and Amphibia actually didn’t had that much problems as other shows with their producers, they had more freedom than most
While I do consider Amphibia a better show with a better finale overall, my friends and I have discussed TGAMM ending much more. It really hit us all emotionally and, for me at least, encouraged me to try and live my life a little.
Despite the two endings was greats i’m for The Ghost and Molly MgGee because for 2 reasons 1 The finale was made after the battle. Yeah we saw so many shows ending with a battle but why not a finale post battle ? I think we need more of that 2 It was so real . Like Scratch alias Tood was in a boring and sad adulthood which is the adulthood is like this and that handled depression and introvert very well. Like we saw Todd start to quit his body after his friend don’t contact him anymore. That show so that like Bojack said: You don’t realise you have the chance until the chance goes away. He was the chance for being with her friend during those years but doesn’t realise until he lost her. My language is not english so sorry for some mistakes
Honestly While I LOVE AMphibia to death and it's finale, I genuinely underestimated The Ghost and Moly Mcgee, so for this happy slice of life show to genuinely hit me in the feels was a real bombshell to me. Also I feel EXACTLY the same way about the Guardian as a whole. They're a cool concept and decent character but they always felt like a weird out of place element in a show like Amphibia. I know that show has it's anime references with Dragon ball Z and Naruto here and there and It's supposed to reference the anime that I don't specifically know the name of but even on my first it still felt weirdly inserted in, and the only foreshadowing was from a drugged Anne at the end of Catsitting.
2:36 unfortunately I don’t think that they will see each other again. When a human did all of their unfinished business in the human world and then died, they didn’t become a ghost //sry for my grammar, not a native speaker
I’m gonna be honest here while both finales did nail the parting ways trope, I think Amphibia did it better than Molly McGee. Don’t get me wrong Molly McGee’s ending was great with Scratch finally going back to living and going to see the world. Amphibia however had the more emotional impact for me and here is why. You see, even though, that Anne made friends and a found family in Wartwood, it was inevitable that she had to go back home now as a changed person, she knew that there was a chance that things were bound to change. Heck, when you remove the whole Omega Domino plot line of the finale, the trio were still gonna go home at the end of the finale. Heck, the previous episode, All In was pretty much building towards it as well. Numerous times in fact! Which is why when the moment finally came, my brother and I were in tears that night, so much so that it actually reminded me of when Frodo left Middle Earth at the end of The Lord of the Rings The Return of the King. Now I am not saying that Molly McGee’s ending is bad, in fact it was still great, but the thing is because the penultimate episode and the final episode felt completely distant from one other, and I mean it in a metaphorical sense, where it didn’t felt complete and not much closure happened outside of our two leads. Now with that said, I still thought both goodbyes in both shows were excellent and felt conclusive on that end, even if one was a lot more conclusive than the other.
i mean, they have a similar idea. human girl goes to another dimension and gets stuck there (although luz actually isnt initially stuck) but other than that 🤷♀️🤷♀️ both shows are amazing imo
2:42 Scratch was a wraith and we don’t know if it’s possible that he remember of everthing after he will be dead butif maybe in least Molly can make ties with him again And i love that despite you’re a Amphibia fan you are still impartial and fair with this kind of thing. Glad you didn’t have not a blind love for this show
Honestly, I hated the end of Amphibia and I mean the last few minutes. She took the risk that she knew could kill her, it did but then she came back to life. The risk meant nothing, the sacrifice felt cheap and pointless. TGAMM on the other hand, they knew Scratch might not remember her and they followed through with it. Sure he remembered a phrase or two but he didn’t remember her. In the end Amphibia didn’t really follow through with the consequences and TGAMM did.
2:34 Actually, molly’s never gonna see scratch. like ever again. even if they do somehow cross paths, itll only be as “strangers”. In a scrapped season 3 episode where patty was supposed to die, it was revealed that the ghost world was a place where people who died had “unfinished business”, like an in and out kind of thing. When Patty died, she didnt have any regerts and passed away peacefully. when todd dies, he most likely wont have any unfinished business cuz hes already done it by travelling around the world with Adia. Also even if he did have unfinished business i just wonder how he would die n suddenly remember EVERYTHING abt his best friend when he used to be a ghost last time..
Tgomm ending, I liked better. Amphibias ending left a bitter taste in my mouth after season 2 was 10/10. I mean scratch can't become a wraith again. I mean he could, but that would be bad and ruin the show. But they definitely could have found a way to travel back to amphibia. But everyone was just like, nah it's the ending so we can't go back. I mean humanity just got invaded by another universe. U don't think the government is building their own portal?
Scrat: don't worry Molly, now you can kiss and hug that pillow with Oli's face while you are in your underwear in total privacy in your room M: hey! How many times did you see me do that? S: several...you should put a note that you are busy or something
I did not see The Ghost and Molly McGee's big twist coming until literally the beginning of the finale, and I didn't know that the show had been cancelled until the day I watched it, so it was quite the emotional ride! I'm definitely still a little bitter that Disney cancelled yet another great series for no good reason, but I'm definitely grateful that the showrunners fought so hard to get one last episode to wrap up the story. I had not considered how the show technically gave more agency to its main duo than Amphibia when it came to how they separated, it's really interesting to see that pointed out! I love both series a whole lot, I have a lot of great memories watching them with my little brother, and I think it'd be fair to say thay they're both a part of what inspired me to enroll in film school to study animation. I wasn't familiar with your channel until now, and it was great getting to see these two shows compared to each othee on a deeper level than just talking about how one's more episodic or serialized than the other, so thanks very much for your thoughtful analysis!
The stone guardian in Amphibia was just such a dumb and contrived character that came out of nowhere and just changed the whole feel of the calamity gems’s history I still don’t like their sudden appearance and existence….
Yeah I hated in Amphibia how it was only one way and they couldn’t visit the world they saved again….like the guardian could’ve easily made it so the girls can visit Amphibia at least once in awhile….
Lol! Anne literally died and was cloned by a diety. That's way more sad than what Molly is going through. Even if Scratch is not in her life at least Molly still has friends in her life.
So sad Anne and Molly had to say farewell to their respective BFFs forever. It's just like "My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic" all over again😭😭😭
That is the saddest and best endings for anne and molly!
personally I always hated Sprig
You have no soul. :(
❤
Twilight never said goodbye to her friends. She still sees them even in the future.
the tgamm finale had me crying for longer than the amphibia finale
Me too and scratch will always be with molly always.
I think I liked the Amphibia ending better.
Same, I didn't tear up in the Amphibia one.
Scrat: don't worry Molly, now you can kiss and hug that pillow with Oli's face while you are in your underwear in total privacy in your room
M: hey! How many times did you see me do that?
S: several...you should put a note that you are busy or something
Lol I just realized they had opposite stakes in the end. Anne died, scratch came back to life.😂
Haha yeah! Also I have no doubt that years in the future when both scratch and Molly die, they'll be best friends again. Scratch's memories aren't gone forever and no way Molly would forget befriending scratch, especially since it was the day she moved to Brighton!
oh yeah!
It would have been funny that just as Rigby lost his body, Scrat is going to get it back, but the ghost of an athlete is already inside his body.
I still miss both shows
And Amphibia finle was amazing
Well Ghost of Molly McGee yeah that was suprise ended that was honestly a tear jerker
The endings of both Amphibia and The Ghost and Molly McGee are very sad with the main friend duos going their separate ways. I have to agree with you with Anne and Sprig being forced to go their separate ways because Anne and her other 2 friends, Sasha and Marcy, had only one way back to Earth. And also with Molly and Scratch choosing to go their separate ways because Scratch regained his memories and finds out he's not really dead and Molly encouraged him to go back into his body and live his life.

Or if an other magical some thing or an other gets dug up.
A better comparison I think is Scratch vs Grunkle Stan, who had the better ending?
also I would argue Scratch was "Killed off"

Outside of "the incident", Amphibia wasn't touched by Disney executives. The series ended where and how it did by the team's own choice.
Over all I like the the first season of The Ghost and Molly McGee, but i wasn't the biggest fan of season 2. But that ending did make me tear up, and I don't normally tear up during tv finale.

They are both 13 year old girls as well! (I know Anne was supposed to be 16 and Disney forced her to be 13 but still)

Hmm, that's a pretty good suggestion.
Im going to miss your Disney Cartoon videos, but I understand why you're doing it.
I do hope that you cover the new Amphibia book when it comes out.
I love both endings of these shows it is such a fantastic memory to have to teach it to future generations and the means of going out and live, if that makes sense ❤

I'd love to see you do a video on the show "Kiff." It's not story-driven but it's really funny.
Man i miss Amphibia 💚💙❤️ definitely my favorite animated show and TGAMMG is solid in second, both are great show

Yo cover Phineas and Ferb they coming back
3:40-4:50 Gainex Ending
Am gonna miss tgamm
I do find myself rewatching The Molly McGee ending more often than Amphibia.
I’m gonna be honest here while both finales did nail the parting ways trope, I think Amphibia did it better than Molly McGee. Don’t get me wrong Molly McGee’s ending was great with Scratch finally going back to living and going to see the world. Amphibia however had the more emotional impact for me and here is why.

Now with that said, I still thought both goodbyes in both shows were excellent and felt conclusive on that end, even if one was a lot more conclusive than the other.
Ok is anyone else gonna admit that Amphibia and The Owl House are basically the same show at their cores?
i mean, they have a similar idea. human girl goes to another dimension and gets stuck there (although luz actually isnt initially stuck) but other than that 🤷♀️🤷♀️ both shows are amazing imo
They both look like anime with a Digimon-style story, well yes (And Molly is more like Yokai watch)
The ghost and Molly McGee is my favorite show
Have you been to Disneyland
2:42 Scratch was a wraith and we don’t know if it’s possible that he remember of everthing after he will be dead butif maybe in least Molly can make ties with him again
And i love that despite you’re a Amphibia fan you are still impartial and fair with this kind of thing. Glad you didn’t have not a blind love for this show
Honestly, I hated the end of Amphibia and I mean the last few minutes. She took the risk that she knew could kill her, it did but then she came back to life. The risk meant nothing, the sacrifice felt cheap and pointless.
TGAMM on the other hand, they knew Scratch might not remember her and they followed through with it. Sure he remembered a phrase or two but he didn’t remember her.
In the end Amphibia didn’t really follow through with the consequences and TGAMM did.
2:34 Actually, molly’s never gonna see scratch. like ever again. even if they do somehow cross paths, itll only be as “strangers”. In a scrapped season 3 episode where patty was supposed to die, it was revealed that the ghost world was a place where people who died had “unfinished business”, like an in and out kind of thing. When Patty died, she didnt have any regerts and passed away peacefully. when todd dies, he most likely wont have any unfinished business cuz hes already done it by travelling around the world with Adia. Also even if he did have unfinished business i just wonder how he would die n suddenly remember EVERYTHING abt his best friend when he used to be a ghost last time..
Tgomm ending, I liked better. Amphibias ending left a bitter taste in my mouth after season 2 was 10/10. I mean scratch can't become a wraith again. I mean he could, but that would be bad and ruin the show. But they definitely could have found a way to travel back to amphibia. But everyone was just like, nah it's the ending so we can't go back. I mean humanity just got invaded by another universe. U don't think the government is building their own portal?
I get that....
I HATE for the fact that TGAMM is over, Now I watch the rest of the bullcrap that's left on disney channel
Scrat: don't worry Molly, now you can kiss and hug that pillow with Oli's face while you are in your underwear in total privacy in your room
M: hey! How many times did you see me do that?
S: several...you should put a note that you are busy or something
what are your top 5 favorite Disney shows. Im curious since tgamm is at 2
I truly love happy endings but i admired bittersweet endings as well.
I think we can all agree that both Ghost and Molly McGee and Amphibia both had better endings than Star vs.
Is this the end of the prime Disney cunny era?
I did not see The Ghost and Molly McGee's big twist coming until literally the beginning of the finale, and I didn't know that the show had been cancelled until the day I watched it, so it was quite the emotional ride! I'm definitely still a little bitter that Disney cancelled yet another great series for no good reason, but I'm definitely grateful that the showrunners fought so hard to get one last episode to wrap up the story. I had not considered how the show technically gave more agency to its main duo than Amphibia when it came to how they separated, it's really interesting to see that pointed out! I love both series a whole lot, I have a lot of great memories watching them with my little brother, and I think it'd be fair to say thay they're both a part of what inspired me to enroll in film school to study animation. I wasn't familiar with your channel until now, and it was great getting to see these two shows compared to each othee on a deeper level than just talking about how one's more episodic or serialized than the other, so thanks very much for your thoughtful analysis!

Hmm I never thought these 2 shows were all that similar in terms of their endings but amphibia is definitely the sadder of the 2 shows
Mine is ghost and Molly McGee then owl house
The stone guardian in Amphibia was just such a dumb and contrived character that came out of nowhere and just changed the whole feel of the calamity gems’s history I still don’t like their sudden appearance and existence….
Yeah I hated in Amphibia how it was only one way and they couldn’t visit the world they saved again….like the guardian could’ve easily made it so the girls can visit Amphibia at least once in awhile….
Lol! Anne literally died and was cloned by a diety. That's way more sad than what Molly is going through. Even if Scratch is not in her life at least Molly still has friends in her life.
Wow you missed the point of the video
Then Anne as well as Goku will go to train against warriors from beyond
