A little fun fact iirc: MF DOOM voiced the giraffe, as well as did two songs for it (featured on the Danger Doom album), and one of the songs was a Space Ghost inspired song that played at the end of one of the episodes.
found out about this show through an "all adult swim characters MF DOOM has voiced" video, then i found this video trying to search up what it was about, and finally watched the actual show, i love it.
Perfect Hair Forever was one of the funniest ind fucks Adult Swim has ever put out. certain scenes still pop up in my head, like "catman is gonna EFF you up" or when I think Coiffio keeps making engine noises wiith his mouth and the tree is just freaking the fuck out. Such a gem
I had birthday sex with the woman who would become my wife and eventually ex wife with this playing in the background at her suggestion (this was five years after the show aired). This show changed my life when I first slept through adult swim while extremely drunk nightly. Eventually, I somehow encountered it again online and was able to reconstruct some blackout drunk lost time and then downloaded all seven episodes from limewire. The action hot dog was the only thing I think I remembered and I never knew what it was or where it came from. I also remember waking for a bathroom trip during the post-show after the pilot.
The hotdog's little catch fraise still calms me during stressful situations. Like I can't help breaking thought and laughing a little. This show really will be loved and missed.
At the most random moments, I will have that stupid little Hot Dog screaming "DO THE LALALALALA" whether that be on the toilet, at 3AM, shopping, in the shower, you get the gist.
I've been CRAVING for someone to talk about this show ! I was pretty young for its target audience *raised on beavis and butthead and aqua teen ... if that explains a lot lol. And we LOVE squidbillies ! Only adult swim show my mom loves* But lord I cant wait to watch this ! So excited. Such a weird, cursed , core memory for me .
This show unironically taught me to cut on the heat in my car when the engine is overheating. It was part of one of the episodes and has helped me not destroy my car numerous times.
Best thing about this show, being as short as it was, by episode 5 they already knew it was coming to an end so they did a whole meta-episode about the frought creation and subsequent cancellation in the form of a musical variety show.
I remember seeing this live after being excited to watch the premier of Squidbillies with my college roommate. We had to keep checking in with each other to make sure we weren't hallucinating or something.
Rewatched the whole show very recently with an old friend who had been deployed overseas for five years. Coming back to this chaotic n deadpan show bringing us both back prehighschool era mentally was something fanastic. Remembering the broad strokes of the show and relaughing at the smaller details. Coiffio and unclegrandfather absolutely slay me cracking up still to this day. Defiantly not a gorgeous looking one, but a fantastic piece of art that has now and forever latched onto my human brain. Thanks. Love it. :)
This show, 12oz Mouse, and Young Person's Guide to History are such touchstones of this period of Adult Swim for me. And have forever imbedded themselves in my way of speaking.
12oz Mouse, perhaps the unknown basis for my entire personality. “Things are going to go bad for you. You’re not going to like… what comes next…” “What’s with the ghost?” Some of my favorite, most-used quotes.
@@ExcaliberGod I remember seeing that in the schedule guide and thinking Adult Swim was actually off the air for 4-4:30. I was never up at that time back then, so I never noticed that it was a real show. Still, Young Person's Guide to History is probably extremely obscure because there were only 2 episodes and they both aired around the 2008 election.
Duuude how did you dig this series up?! I remember watching this as a kid and ironically being into the female characters despite this show being a parody of anime tropes. Man, I saw your thumbnail and an old synapse in my memory just went off for the first time in 20 years. Great job with this video dude ❤️
I remember being fascinated and enchanted by PHF. Every time it happened to be on, it felt like a total treat. Super off-the-wall and yet somehow totally understandable in the way it referenced a really specific point in time for anime viewers.
DUDE YOUR INCREDIBLE. I was literally up at 2am at the prime age of 15 back in 04 watching adult swim and suddenly this show aire. I was accustomed to their normal lineup so naturally I was like "WTF IS THIS". I was hooked immediately. I was up every night to follow each episode. The show really holds a special place in my heart. And all the characters of the show resonate with me personally Thanks for the review. On a side note I'm going out on a whim and say you're not really into underground hip hop? I was in disbelief that you didn't even mention probably the world's most notorious hip hop mc MF DOOM which voiced the giraffe and his song "space hos" featured at the beginning and end of the fourth episode i believe and also hosted a Christmas special on adult swim.
Thanks for the $5! And yeah, was not aware of MF Doom really even though I did recognize him as one of the artists who made credits for the show. I've gotten so many comments saying I should have brought him up so my bad I guess haha. His song and voice for the giraffe were both really great though.
I remember it, and rewatch it a lot, but yeah I had the same experience no one talks about it, no one remembers it. There were a lot of adult swim shows like that but the difference between them and Perfect Hair Forever, I think, is that Perfect Hair Forever is actually really good. It's playing a joke on the audience but that joke goes over really well. Even if you dont think the joke is funny you still have to respect it, even among other Adult Swim shows from that era it's unique.
I loved this show, and have been trying to find it on DVD or something for years. I'm glad some other people remember it, because no one I know in real life seems to, and I know for a fact at least one of my friends was sitting on the couch next to me when I watched it.
I used to have a VHS tape that I would tape Adult Swim on to watch later, over and over again. I lost it years ago, but I had captured this night on that tape and never recorded over those portions of it. I captured a handful of the April Fool's gags, too, that I always kept portions of. Admitting this makes me feel instantly old.
Perfect Hair Forever and Xavier Renegade Angel were the two [AS] shows I loved the most and were them most hated by all of my friends over the decades.
I watched those bumpers and the supposed preimier because a highschool and childhood friend of mine Lars worked on Squidbillies as an animator. He told us like a few hours before it wasnt premiering when it was said to be because thats when he found out. It was a weird time
Never seen this show but now that you've brought it to my attention I'm saddened that it's not promoted more, I have a great love for adult animated shows, and it sucks to see that one flew under my radar as unique as this soon, I agree with you about the art style it reminds me of my experience with New Vegas, old graphics but such a great story, such great stories can be told with any level of visual detail, I hope to watch it soon, seems great but I wish there would be more of it, but unfortunately as you said with the guy leaving the network there's little chance even as another April fool's
I do remember this show, and boy there are several lines from it that live rent free from my head: "Why do I continue to use Cat-Man? I { *EEEEEF* }-ing hate Cat-Man." "My grandson is about to be sucked into that giant tornado... heh heh, awesome." ... to name a couple.
Saw this in my recommendations and clicked on your channel to see videos about this (obviously), game dude and home movies. Never subscribed to a channel so fast, just found my life for the next day
squidbillies was the show that made my Southern heart warm Aqua Teen i laughed my underage ass off till i couldnt breathe Perfect Hair Forever seemed like a drug trip that i am having problems paying attention to...... Man things really change since the days
Minor correction: Toonami wasn’t rolled into Adult Swim until 2012. In 2004 [as] was still only showing anime as part of their Saturday action block, while Toonami was still for kids.
I have an action hot dog go tattood on me and I met Brendan small at a dethklok meet and greet and he confirmed he worked on the show, wrote music for it and it was the show that showed adult swim that he can make music fast so they greenlighted metalacolypse! I adore this show and thought this would be a fun peice of Trivia for the comments
FINALLY, I thought I had a fever dream as a child when I saw this show on adult swim and whenever I tried to ask anyone if they remember an anime girl swinging on the ceiling under a pervy old man I got met with weird looks. i wasnt crazy QAQ
Oh, yeah. I remember them talking about Squidbillies for so long I figured it was some sort of running gag that I didn't get and wasn't ever going to happen.
I remember during the first airing with “anime talkshow,” the end theme of episode one wasn’t censored. So here’s this wacky inflatable flailing armed tube man whipping around while a lounge singer goes “keep on fucking Paris, keep on fucking Paris.”
love this show
Love your animations! Been a huge fan for years and it's surreal seeing you here.
AS should hire you
Why is it every goddamn time I read your comments, I say it in your voice inside of my head, it’s genuinely scary how accurate it is
Not this fucking guy
PHF is so damn good... I'm glad I got to watch it air when it came out. 12 oz mouse too. Something about them.
I really miss when Adult Swim was just doing whatever the hell it wanted
A little fun fact iirc: MF DOOM voiced the giraffe, as well as did two songs for it (featured on the Danger Doom album), and one of the songs was a Space Ghost inspired song that played at the end of one of the episodes.
And Melt Banana did one of the credits songs as well as Brendon Small, co creator of Metalocalypse (Survive the Wolf!)
That was probably one of his most random appearences, funniest shit
Yeah I'm surprised this guy didn't note that. He's CLEARLY not an hip hop head.
“I HAVE SEX WITH DOGS! WHAT’S UP WITH THAT!?” Is indelibly burned into my brain.
found out about this show through an "all adult swim characters MF DOOM has voiced" video, then i found this video trying to search up what it was about, and finally watched the actual show, i love it.
The hot dog "Do the LA LA la la la LAAAAaaa!" is etched into my brain forever.
Kind of surprised Gemusetto Machu Pichu didn't get brought up. In my opinion it felt like a successor to Perfect Hair Forever.
Perfect Hair Forever was one of the funniest ind fucks Adult Swim has ever put out. certain scenes still pop up in my head, like "catman is gonna EFF you up" or when I think Coiffio keeps making engine noises wiith his mouth and the tree is just freaking the fuck out. Such a gem
VERY excited for this one. Was almost convinced that this show was a shared fever dream we both had lmao
This is gonna be a good one for sure. I had fun making it
pretty sure it still IS a shared fever dream.

What a way to have this show stuck in your mind. Truly one of those modern humanizing moments

Perfect Hair Forever is to be one of the top tier adult swim shows!

This show should at least ran 3 episodes.

Shout out to the Super Villain MF DOOM. He was in Perfect Hair Forever even tho he’s balding like Gerald. Double Entendres.
night all night, day all night. night night night, night all day **inflatable arm-flailing tube man flapping in the breeze**
Great video! I remember seeing this show when it aired in 2005. Such a crazy memory because I was so young so it greatly confused me.😅 😂
I vaguely remember Perfect Hair Forever. In fact, the only joke I clearly remember is "Oh hi... Can you get this vaccum cleaner to f*** this cake?"
Hilarious 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I loved this show, and have been trying to find it on DVD or something for years. I'm glad some other people remember it, because no one I know in real life seems to, and I know for a fact at least one of my friends was sitting on the couch next to me when I watched it.
They have 1 episode on dvd in an adult swim “pilots” collection.
It doesn't have a DVD but ep 1 is on the adult swim collection dvd
And here I thought I always just missed the ending to the series. Thanks man.
I used to have a VHS tape that I would tape Adult Swim on to watch later, over and over again.

I've been trying to remember the name of this forever. The scene with the old man going bananananannananana has always been stuck in my head.
"brenda, back in to my hand" was a favorite line of mine for a long time.
Blenda😮😂😂😂😂❤
Oh shit, hoping you mention Gemusetto as well - reminds me of if Perfect Hair Forever went a bit stranger and lasted a bit longer.
I love this show and still quote it to this day, in 2023!

Perfect Hair Forever will always be on par with high end media for me.
The best part of all this is that now google and youtube think I’m going bald because I watched a “perfect hair forever” vid
Nice vid! Good to see someone covering PHF. Still reference it on a regular basis

Also shout out to Bobobo Bo Bo Bobo. There series was about stop Czar Baldy Bald from stealing all the hair in the world…..
I seriously wanted more of this! But wow, I had no Idea they had 2 additional episodes were made afterwards.
This show walked so that Ballmasterz could fly
That's true
This show was always so trippy, I loved it!
It was my favorite Adult Swim show of the era. I loved the lampooning of anime.
i love this show. i always wanted it to have a ton of episodes and be a full fledged show.
Literally gotta commercial for hair restoration while watching this lol! Thanks taking me back that weird show!
Man when this show was on.... This show and Xavier.
I so miss this age of Adult Swim.
DO THE LALALALALALALAAAAA!
such a well made video man, this series is so slept on
I would love to see you talk about Saul of the Mole Men.
You-re absolutely right - It's a beautifully weird and hilarious inside joke for [adult swim] fans.
As a big fan of this show, I’ve been searching for a long time if a video about it exits. Thanks a lot. Loved this video and your work
My sister hated this show and didn't understand it.
And that made me love it more.
"for snacking" is still my kitchen phrase
Fantastic!!! I find my self accidentally quoting this show a lot myself or with friends…. You know …. Snackings. Comes up a bit
Your superb taste in Nintendo64 games has not gone unnoticed.

I loved this show and wish they would reboot and finish it.
I remember watching the first episode when it first aired at like age 9, and I swear that the ending credits went on for like 40 minutes.

Came to watch the video and the ad before it started was a hair transplant ad..Balding Baldy. Loved this show, I'm 43 this makes me feel old af.
This whole show is a goddamn fever dream. Like you fell asleep after eating too much cheese and shonen playing in the background.
this is such a weird experiance. watching this video made me realize that I watched this premiere. thank you for the nostalgia!

God this show was so important to me in my teens.
small mistake: adult swim did not air anime shows on toonami in 2004, they had their own block called “adult swim action” (or ACTN for short)
I hope we get both this show and Pibby as a future crossover april fools day gag

Wow. I had forgotten this existed, but seeing the thumbnail reminded me of everything immediately..
"i have sex with dogs-what's up with that?!" It was a bizarre show...
I still occasionally say “mmm banananana” when eating bananas, as well as “people are getting dead.” Glad other people still remember it fondly.
I remember that this was a thing, but at the same time, I had no idea it had more than one episode, lol.

The first episode was the best one, because it came out of nowhere. I like it when Adult Swim just randomly gobsmacks an audience.
I remember during the first airing with “anime talkshow,” the end theme of episode one wasn’t censored. So here’s this wacky inflatable flailing armed tube man whipping around while a lounge singer goes “keep on fucking Paris, keep on fucking Paris.”
