I remember back when the websites releases first started slowing down, I thought “well, as long as they keep making the Halloween, and Decemberween shorts, I’ll be happy.” Turns out I was right.
The thing I miss most about the flash episodes of the emails is finding all the after-episode hidden bonus gags, so I appreciated the fake ending here.
@@erinfinn2273dude, I was so excited to click that play button, have been getting into learning car repair, and I thought it was a video I missed. Was immediately disappointed and then very entertained when I realized the fake out.
Its very cute that Strong Bad, Strong Sad, and The Cheat wore matching costumes. Its a shame nobody in ET was square shaped enough for Strong Mad to join them.
I am in awe of the creativity and singularity the homestar runner universe has had. The humor has a distinct identity, and it’s hard to find comparison to it. Take something really trivial in this video like “door number twice”. What is that? I love it. I’m going to say that in casual conversation for years now, and it won’t ever make sense to others, or even me.
On most oft happenings, I need to say words I just said, but not in a way that sounds as like it came from the machinations of Count Longardeux's talk-words book. Escobably okay in normal circumstances, but in customer/retail service, sweet genius, I end up wepeating myself.
Hey, Champeen, Preshy, and Rafferty! I really like your "one-man hubub of shadow puppet judglins, makin' like a hush-a-bush-leopold" costumes! (But for real, this Halloween is now the best Tubesdateween EVER.)
Wait a minute... Animation smears and squash-and-stretch in MY Homestar Runner?! Holy crop! All silliness aside (for now), this was another hilarious one. Never get tired of the Homestar flavor of meta. :P
I was just thinking how incomprehensible most of this would be to someone unfamiliar with the Homestar world… to those who are, it’s like “Ah yes, the Ab-Abber 2000, nice touch” 😆
"Door number 2ce" Genuinely a very good written gag. Thanks for still doing these. Honestly, the misinterpretations work way better as the central focus of the episode. Really helps me appreciate how clever they are. For anyone trying to google things they didn't understand, Xur is from The Last Starfighter, NOT Destiny.
King of Town as Immortan Joe was something I didn’t know I needed in my life. His reluctant delivery of “…so shiny and chrome,” was just *chef’s kiss*.
I love seeing a good homestarrunner Halloween costume. Was hoping to see at least one Strongbad or Trogdor costume this year, but they won't let the 44-year-olds trick-or-treat. 😞
I feel ya. Even a decade-ish ago at the end of college (mid 30s now) I was a modestly hot GunHaver. Everyone thought I was Indiana Jones ;n; You can still have the best trunk in the trunk or treat though, especially if you do a Stinkoman or Peasant's Quest theme. Just go all out and have a qr code so they can watch the video and get it.
I continue to be amazed and delighted by TBC's continued commitment to Halloween. No more games, no more Teen Girl Squad or Cheat Commandoes, or Stinkoman, Strong Bad Emails effectively finished in '09, but they always remember creative dress-up day. Bonus points for the Preshy/Rafferty/Champeen cameo. No such thing as a useless character! 😄
This H*R Halloween special was so densely packed full of inside gags and pop culture references that I was afraid it might implode on itself like the Titan sub!
Absolutely made my night seeing that Homestar Runner got a Halloween toon this year!! Still as entertaining and full of humor as it was 20 years ago. I mean, I'm sure it was wonderful 20 years ago when it was coming out but I wasn't exactly alive for that, being born in 2008. Thank you guys for still making stuff so we still get the opportunity to see new toons as they come out
You guys bring us so much joy every time you make a full blown toon or game. It may never be the numbers of your heyday (b/c too much has changed) but there’s a different value in longevity. A dependable lighthearted moment that hits just the right spot is priceless for some of us.
Every new Homestar Runner toon since the bros went on indefinite hiatus is like Decemberween morning, my birthday, a candy store, and some annoying guy's funeral all rolled together into one delightfully animated package!
My heart melts Seeing Strongbad , Strong Sad & the cheat going full family theme was heartwarming, they have grown back together at a respectable distance
Now we need a Reanimated version of that scene, that references the Reanimated Collab version, with Homestar's face morphing into each of the Brothers Strong, and Homestar's shirt with the wort "WUT," referencing Tom's shirt saying "RUT."
Costumed I recognize, inside jokes for the site itself, literally just in time for Halloween, this is a grade A Homestar-loween toon of all time. Thank you guys (and one girl) for still being there and still being awesome.
These guys have maintained early 2000's humor for like 20 years, incredible stuff, you gotta love 'em. This is essentially my version of Peanuts specials now.
I think this is your best 'ween toon concept in a long time! You'll make millions! Also, the Stro' Bros' 'stumes are the best. Strong Mad as Rockbiter is a great fit. I love that Strong Bad and Strong Sad have matching costumes from the same movie. I love that all three went with an 80's movie theme. Ahh, I just love their costumes so much!
Halloween Homestar shorts will never get old. Thank you for continuing this tradition after all this time.
I remember back when the websites releases first started slowing down, I thought “well, as long as they keep making the Halloween, and Decemberween shorts, I’ll be happy.”
Turns out I was right.
Agreed 🎉
@@user-xt3hk1wh6l
Yus.
Strong Bad voice: Shorts? This is over six minutes long man. That's like...feature length!
I much prefer them doing one awesome short once or twice a year to constantly churning out crap like the AVGN.
Strong Bad saw that check and said “I’LL STEAL IT, NO ONE WILL EVER KNOW”
He missed that it said _dollhairs_ instead of _dollars,_ though. ...Unless he wanted all those dollhairs for his Snowballstiny thing later on?
I love how Homestar still retains the same humor from 20 years ago
WOW! Has it been that long?! I can't believe it.
These shorts always score a Home Run with me!!
. . . "witches brew", "jarrr-gy fruits"!
@@obifeyGetting closer to 30 years, honestly.
Nah, the Dover Boys toon he dressed as and referenced is WAY older than that .
Yes, I'm kidding.
Just past 25@@Absolutely_Nobody
@@obifey I was in 9th grade when H*R first became a thing. I'm 35 now.
The fact that they made Marzipan stop-motion like the character she's dressed as really goes the extra mile!
Don’t you mean Marzipenny?
Love the little personalized jingles they get. Also hearing Matt voice his characters impersonating his other characters is fun
Absolutely! I feel it's a sign of a top-tier voice actor when you so fully inhabit your characters that you can have them act as well.
Right? I thought the same. Must be challenging, but probably a lot of fun too (he did great of course).
oh man didn't even notice the jingles, like what is coach z's jingle referencing?

For real though H*R fwends, let's be honest, we'd all watch The Jibbles demon fix a car without batting an eye.

Love how upset homestar looks when homsar guessed right(also glad homsar still made perfect sense on the phone)
Well, sorta. Maybe it's just Marzipan's Answering Machine that has that particular effect, or just the strongest at least.
@@FriendlyLocalGeek no, clearly that was just his guess it just so happens that homestar's guess sounds alot like homsar's usual nonsense
I'm over 30 and I have yet to understand half of the homestar runner Halloween costume references in a single episode. I love it!
Its very cute that Strong Bad, Strong Sad, and The Cheat wore matching costumes. Its a shame nobody in ET was square shaped enough for Strong Mad to join them.
The closet full of stuffed animals.
The spaceship
The back of the truck, still attached to the containment chamber tunnel as Elliot's brother drives off?
(Too obscure?)
ET 2600 cartridge?
I think Strong Mad just misinterpreted which movie they were pulling costumes from. I get ET and The Neverending Story mixed up all the time.
Holy crap "motley crew in the ICU" frickin sent me to the moon with laughter.
Kickstart My Heart!
Home sweet hooooooooome!!! 🎶 🎸 🤘
I really enjoyed every last one of those little game show graphics.
"A solid guess!" with a dorky cinder block, that made me laugh out loud.
I would buy stickers of all of them. Jackbox energy but with that extra H*R non-sequitur flair.
SAME LMFAO
"Write on the money!" had me rolling!
Write on the money takes the cake for sure.

Yeah the animation smears on Homestar at the end was such a clever nod!
I love the little details like the "write on the money" etc pictures and characters' leitmotifs. Super glad these are still being made!!
I love how deeply ingrained the recurring gags are in the world of Homestar Runner because this only makes sense if you’re a long time fan 😂
I was just thinking how incomprehensible most of this would be to someone unfamiliar with the Homestar world… to those who are, it’s like “Ah yes, the Ab-Abber 2000, nice touch” 😆
@@taylorlconnerright? thats a deep cut!
This has been the case for Homestar Runner since well before the hiatus.
@@applemask The fact they made an entire character based on a misspelling of Homestar can attest to that

I love how Preshy, Rafferdy, and Champeen are the judges at 5:12!
Ooh! 😮

Honestly, many of their fake videos look like something I would actually watch.
I would love to see the jibblies automotive care.

I love that all the fan costumes of Champeen are helping her slowly becoming an actual character!
this is the one of most specific topics you could make a halloween toon out of.
i love it.
They mentioned the Dark Crystal!!!! I look forward to this every year and it absolutely never disappoints. Gold, Jerry! GOLD!
Also Penny!
No October is complete without an annual new Homestar Halloween toon!
Some things don't change. It is 2023 and I am still enjoying Homestar Runner as much as I ever have. It is just the best.
Homestar as a Dover Boy made me so irrationally happy
A Halloween Costume idea. I'LL STEAL IT! NO ONE WILL EVER know.

The sleepy eyes on Homsar really make his costume. Very creative and just obscure enough to anyone who didn’t watch The Inspector cartoons.

As a game show fan, this dinged all the bells for me. Happy Halloween everybody, even if it's on a Tubesdate.
I was cheering along with the brothers strong 😂😂
Hey Homestar, I really like your The Greatest American Hero Goes to College costume
Using claymation to animate Marzipans Halloween costume of Penny was amazing!
I AM ALWAYS SO HAPPY WHEN WE GET MORE HOMESTAR!!!! ESPECIALLY WHEN ITS A HALLOWEEN ONE!!!!!
Cool your horses, Strong Mad.
King of Town as Immortan Joe was something I didn’t know I needed in my life. His reluctant delivery of “…so shiny and chrome,” was just *chef’s kiss*.
Still killing it after all these years. Loved this one.
We've gone from two toons a week to two a year and I can't stress enough how thankful I am that we even get that.
My favorite yearly tradition, way to go guys. I recognized only 3 costumes this year, I think I’m losing my edge.
Unfortunately, tar is still prohibitively expensive.
Do you have a saw, I think you'll be fine if so
I was really thrown that I finally recognized a Coach Z one but Beastie Boys were considered pretty cross-genre by my day.
I’m lucky enough to recognize 3 costumes in a given year. Then again, I’m a dumb Zoomer who likes shenaniganing in the dark.
the references are for people who are in their thirties, forties, and fifties simultaneously
"I typed out the whole recipe instead of taking a screenshot" Wow, I feel strangely and uniquely called out.

Okay, major props to animating Homestar with a smear effect at the end, just like they did in The Dover Boys cartoon.
