What I find really unique and love about this show is that, unlike other anime shows at the time, like Pokémon, Dragon Ball Z, Sailor Moon, or maybe even Yu-Gi-Oh!, where they usually have a battle between good and evil, Hamtaro is more relaxing and calmer. Just watching Hamtaro and all his friends play in the Ham-Ham Clubhouse while enjoying the beautiful music and scenery. I love that. It's just so great. I love Hamtaro. At my school, a lot of teachers there remember watching Hamtaro. And, every week, I go to a farm. And one of the people there loves Hamtaro. My cousins have pet hamsters when i see their pet hamsters. I always think of Hamtaro. It's a cute and relaxing show. I love it. Little Hamsters, Big Adventures Hamtaro!
And I think there was plans to air the redesign episodes since ShoPro had English title cards made for episodes past The Milky Way (ep104). While I doubt they were ever meant to be in the English dub, they were used for the new Valencian dub, albeit with a voice over reading the title card.
I miss hamtaro show so much on cartoon Network, If maybe one day I get to meet a creator of hamtaro, the voice actor and the others who work so hard to make a hamtaro. I would thank them for watching and enjoying hamtaro as a kid. 😊
Well I met at certain comic cons Cathy Weseluck, Tabitha St Germain and Scott McNeil. they are cool to meet and I sang a bit of the animaiacts song with scott at boston
I actually didn't know that but I remember seeing hamtaro training or card collection pack full size. Sadly it was 4yrs ago now it's gone or discontinued forever. 🥺

Reminds me of the Halliwell spell when they summon the ancestors to help the Charmed ones to vanquish the evil "Prudence, Penelope, Patricia, Melinda, Astrid, Helena, Lauren and Grace, Halliwell witches stand strong besides us, vanquish this evil from time and space" So meaning that they were dead, so, Hamtaro and gang was dead already? Anime theory!??
I have owned all of the games of this show in my life, and I saw every single American episode! Even saw a few Japanese dubbed episodes! I am a true Ham-Ham!
The thing is there is no complete English dub, there was 12 seasons with only 4 airing in the USA. We missed out on a crap ton of episodes, like “Rolling! Big Egg” and “Devil Big Panic!” Yeah they had some pretty wacky episodes in the 200s!
It was Ocean Productions in Vancouver, British Columbia,Canada, where it was recorded at Ocean Productions, which is famous for the Ocean Dub of Dragon Ball Z. The DBZ dub, which originated the famous line, "It's Over 9000!"
It’s always been in fact, look up “hamtaro rave” on youtube and you will find videos of whole groups of adults dancing to the Japanese Hamtaro intro and they’re amazing.
This was apparently a promotion VHS video handed out from Burger King called "The Ham-Ham Dance!" for the "Ham-Ham Halloween"(the final aired English dub episode) special that aired on Fridays(formerely Cartoon Cartoon Fridays) on Cartoon Network, so a lot of people have never seen it due to releasing very late in the shows run.
@tamacat2001 How rare is the VHS " The Ham-Ham Dance!" Where can you find it? Can you find it at like a thrift store? Now, that would be a lucky find, Finding this rare promotional VHS Tape released in 2003 by ShoPro Entertainment. I have one big question about this tape, how many of these were made? Do you have a copy of it? If I find The promotional Hamtaro VHS tape The Ham-Ham Dance! at a thrift store, I'm not gonna let it sit there I'm picking it up. If you see this tape at a thrift store don't hesitate to pick it up!
Wherever these kids are now, they better be watching Hamtaro and dancing like this, and who knows maybe some of them have pet hamsters, just like Hamtaro!
It was not a major flop in America! For example, how do you explain all this cool Hamtaro merchandise we got there in the United States? When Hamtaro came over to America, it was just like the Pokémon craze of the late 90s and early 2000s. We shall all remember the Hamtaro craze of 2002!
@@HyperSonicXtreme Something didn't go right. Hamtaro just came and went in a two-year span (~2002-2004), not only in the U.S., but also the rest of the anglophone, in Latin America and in continental Europe. It just completely ran away and never returned, while maintaining popularity in Japan. What gives? It feels like something odd happened that caused Hamtaro to stop getting localized entirely, possibly for reasons not related to critical or commercial reception. But that's just speculation on my part.
@OhSayWhatIsTruth Hamtaro did not fail in the west! For example, how do you explain all this cool Hamtaro merchandise we got here in the west? Some of which were never available in Japan! Back in the early 2000s, Hamtaro was everywhere. One thing is for sure Hamtaro is not your average hamster! I love Hamtaro, isn't he adorable?
So...the hamsters...drive a van around full of kids...to make them dance and sing in public...yeah when you look at this video it's uh...not aged well and feels rather...creepy. I love Hamtaro though!
What we need is a Ham Ham Reunion! Maxwell’s VA’s been going to Anime conventions again, but so far I have yet to notice Chiara Zanni, Ted Cole, Sam Vincent, or Chantal Strand booking appearances. Ah well. A guy can still dream, right?
This is so well made i cant help but to feel they might have taken clips from a movie ?? some shots look like too much 😂 the woman screaming at her phone, the bussiness men checking their clocks, the two police cars and officers runnnig with ther hands ready to pull out their guns . If someone knows if it was all exclusively made for hamtaro let me know
Hello my friend, I am looking for a break or an advertisement similar to this video. It was about Cartoon Network characters confronting a group of real children in a dance battle. Do you remember it?
+Sarada Uchiha So it's a French DVD? What episodes does it have (and any other DVDs you have)? I mainly need 53 - 97 in French, but there are some others I could use in better quality too.
Sarada Uchiha Oh, OK. That would be episode 9. I think I already have all the episodes on that one in good quality. Is that the only Hamtaro DVD you have?

it has gotten a cult following now
Wasn't the English dub done in Canada?

Hamtaro invented flossing
Of course he did
....wait...
....so BOSS WAS DRIVING THE VAN!?!?!
He is the oldest, isnt he? Al least the biggest
No Boss did not driving da van
Then, who was driving the van?
It's weird that they used the characters from the redesign even though the series ended in the US before they could even air the redesign episodes.
Actually, the did air a few episodes of said redesigned ones, most notably the Halloween episode.
And I think there was plans to air the redesign episodes since ShoPro had English title cards made for episodes past The Milky Way (ep104).
While I doubt they were ever meant to be in the English dub, they were used for the new Valencian dub, albeit with a voice over reading the title card.
In America, most people are used to seeing Hamtaro all chubby.
Why did they redesign them?
God this reminded me how amazing Hamtaro's ending song is
Yea it's a bit cringe
@@Heira The Japanese one slaps however
Why would they call the police on some dancing kids and animated hamsters?
I think the point they are trying to get across is the adults cant walk to the other side of the kids because of the dancing? I honestly cant fathom
Some were black....
@@redruby9564 this
You get the police called or 911 up to the point when your order through the drive thru window didn't come with enough ketchup

@@maremagnus FLCL confirmed the death of Hamtaro
Back when Cartoon Network was my television home. Thanks for uploading this!
My pleasures (Sorry I rarely go on TH-cam since I work 😅)
How could you not sing along to this as a kid back then? It gave me the Nostalgia /Happy vibes all over.🐹🐾
Before the Floss there was this
The kids look like they're having fun :) I wanna try that dance someday
That's always fun to dance :3
Why not this song is catchy as hell, I'm not surprised this wasn't the opening theme song to this
Back when Cartoon Network was lit.
I don't think I ever saw this commercial. But that looks fun, I may be an adult but I wanna try that dance. Hamtaro was a fun childhood memory
Back when Cartoon Network meant so much for kids and young adults.
20 years of #Hamtaro
This background might take place in the Watercourt plaza in Los Angeles California
I have owned all of the games of this show in my life, and I saw every single American episode! Even saw a few Japanese dubbed episodes! I am a true Ham-Ham!
You are one lucky guy.
i had heartbreak and games and i just got unite

Question who was responsible for the Dubbed version
4 seasons? That's more than enough. Besides, we got some pretty cool Hamtaro merchandise you can't get in Japan!
It was Ocean Productions in Vancouver, British Columbia,Canada, where it was recorded at Ocean Productions, which is famous for the Ocean Dub of Dragon Ball Z. The DBZ dub, which originated the famous line, "It's Over 9000!"
The original flash mob by Hamtaro
That black guy with the giant sunflower seed
Weird, never saw this until now. This show was a weird guilty pleasure before high school.
Hamtaro was an actual cult from what I gather from this commercial.
It’s always been in fact, look up “hamtaro rave” on youtube and you will find videos of whole groups of adults dancing to the Japanese Hamtaro intro and they’re amazing.
I miss being a kid😭❤️❤️❤️
Same
the lady wearing black looks like she'd ask to speak to the manager
she did look like a karen and she was on the phone calling cops even though the kids were not gonna stop until the song ended
Friggin Karen calling the cops on Hamtaro
and the kids. pisses me off she clapped when the kids left with that bitchy smirk
Hamtato ending song remix old cartoon network
2023 anyone??!!
yes
Don't think Cartoon Network in the US ever aired this, though...
Back when kids in this last of the generation was physically active
i still party hard like this kids! I wish i could get people in of this to do a flash mob like this!
@@awesomeninja9178 I do too 😂
Wow even back then crazy ladies calling the police on children...who da thunk!! (Hercules reference)
Man oh man, this commercial is so cute! If only I was one of those dancers back then, dancing with Hamtaro and the Ham Hams would've been a blast!
Whenever I see or think of Hamtaro I can't help but smile.
I always come back to this video. I love this commercial and I wish they still aired Hamtaro!
I've had this song in my head since Hamtaro first aired on Cartoon Network. Also, this commercial is so bizarre, it's perfect.
I remember this I saw this when I was 8 year old
If the hamsters are at that size then Laura and the rest of the humans must be giants XD
🤣
Uh two questions...
1. How did the Hamsters gotten in the van very fast?
2. and most importantly...why is the van white?
a mini van was not enough space
I preferred the original take, where the police showed up in riot gear and drove them out with tear gas.
Huh!?
I certainly don't remember this commercial back then, if I had known about it I probably would've taped it on VHS and watched it a billion times.

Change my mind
Watching this commercial as a 4 year old had my bugging my mom to meet hamtaro aaah innocent childhood days will never be the same!!🥲
Anyone notice cartoon network did the floss dance before it got ticktock famous by that skinny guy
Yes
I miss this show
"Karen calls the cops on kids who came out of a white van and started dancing and singing"
90s or 2000s Karen.
You know, Hamtaro is truly one of a kind.
"Vegeta, what does the scouter say about these hamster's power level?" "It's Over 9000!"
lol, didn't know they have this
I don't remember this at all 🤣
Wherever these kids are now, they better be watching Hamtaro and dancing like this, and who knows maybe some of them have pet hamsters, just like Hamtaro!
This sure is a treat. We don't get a chance to meet Hamtaro every day.
I don’t know if I remember this or not
I remember this, Reminds me of my childhood.
This VHS tape is really rare. If I find it at a thrift store,I'm picking it up!
I sure would love to do this at the mall with my friends.
Whatever was going on in that white van, it must've been fun!
Is it sad that I know the whole dance because of personal reasons
When did the hamster start doing the floss
Damn Karen, you had to ruin the fun by caring the cops
ikr kids were doing nothing wrong
You mean she brought the fun, the cops dancing and participating to the song 🤣
It must've been fun in that van!
It's been a while since Hamtaro has had a major production.
Imagine if one of the DJs play this at the club!
I love Hamtaro, isn't he adorable?
This is awesome
I love Hamtaro. Do you know why? Because he's cute! He's about as cute as Pikachu!
1:05 :v

Can tell this is American. Someone called the cops on those kids
hated how the karen called police then smiles when it was over and clapped because it was over
