"I'm dying Theodore" being uttered from a melancholic Curious George with the voice of a 50 year old chainsmoker is one of the most hilarious things I've seen.
I’m so sorry to hear about your loss, I’m happy this could provide you some comfort. I wish you well through your continued healing, keep on the love❤️
but he could speak the whole time, and he didnt figure out the love thing until later according to him, he said he later wished he had realized it was all about love, which means he didnt know that the whole time lol...
I just noticed that George’s headstone doesn’t say George the curious while another one says Ponderous Cody. Because George wasn’t curious anymore. He found his answer.
The point was that he spent some time learning stupid bs that amounted to nothing but gaining hate for others. He learned now that instead of doing all that (getting into QAnon, anti-vaxx bs, or fighting people on the internet) he should've spent more time loving. He didn't reveal anything about a conspiracy, he even admits it.
This is scarily the best advice you can probably hear on the internet; don’t ask questions, don’t get caught up in life, just love. Change people’s lives and leave an impression on those you interact with through kindness and compassion. It’s the only thing that’ll really matter.
This is well written, as many of your other videos. I wish someone could donate 6 figures or more and allow you to do a large project. I feel this channel's production has such high quality. Thank you!
Curious George was first created in 1941. That would make him 83. He inspired millions and was the most philosophical primate I've ever heard of. May he rest in piece.
It's not a banger, it's all bullshit. That's what he was getting at; there will never be an end to the conspiracies because some new stupidity will always be invented to satiate the types of people who need to overthink shit, and the whole point is that George should have never cared about the conspiracy shit and just lived his life.
He went to the beach, the library, heck - even outer space. But what he was looking for was in front of him all along. Someone should share this with Waldo before it’s too late.
@@WillowLackett yeah I agree. Everything about it kinda just fits perfectly. I wasn’t sure if he meant the actors thought with the way he worded it. Not many YT commenters know what an Oscar actually is
I legitimately needed to hear this, I've been driving myself crazy for awhile searching for the answers when truly I'll never find them all. I see, good and evil, I see light and dark, just gotta follow the light and embody the good while cherishing every moment of it, truthfully. LOVE
I loved the fact that George loved and respected Theodore enough to speak to him but everyone else he just made monkey noises. Theodore was the one who gave George the most love and happiness than anyone else did.
Isn't it crazy how the CDC was saying monkeypox was an STD but when children and animals started getting it everyone instantly stopped talking about it?
Everything about this was done so well, from his curiosity leading him to unearth the darkest secrets of the elite to the heartwrenching rendition of jack johnsons upside down great vid, bravo
If p3do island and lol1ta express is real, im pretty sure pizza gate is probly real too with time passes. Hell conspiracy theories are a funny thing cuz it slowly becomes true with time that brings the truth to light. For decades crazy Alex Jones was shoutong in a megaphonr in publoc streets since 80s and 90s that the govt was phone tapping us and storing all of it. It was until decades later that Edward Snowden expose the NSA for that exact thing Jones was talking about decades earlier, vindicating Aled Jones.
“life can be so damn complicated. and you just wanna look around, and ask questions. you got no reason to ask questions when we have something as inexplicable as love, because you know there are no answers” unironically one of the most profound statements i’ve ever heard
Man, this part got me in the feels so hard. And also ties beautifully to Socrates's "all I know is - that I know nothing..." But LOVE is all you need ✓
I like that there was no punchline. It stayed committed to its goal and didn’t harass the viewer at the end but stayed true to itself. Thank you for that.
The punchline was the memetic crescendo of a B-tier Jack Johnson, who did a whole soundtrack of children lullabies for the Curious George soundtrack, cover of "Upside Down" as George finished pouring his soul out to Theodore.
That's what he knows. All the way back to when he was thrown in jail for calling 911. What did he have then? Just a hard wooden bench to sleep on, no covers, no pad, just a wooden wedge for a pillow. He knows he's finally, at long last, going home so he is returning to those days when he was a simple monkey in a jailcell without a head full of so much horrors he can never un-see, and so much of society's evil that he can never un-know.
So I know this is a skit but this advice was nearly identical to that which my father gave to me on his deathbed 3 years ago. In essence, he said love shouldn't be complicated. This video brought out raw emotions that I'd suppressed for literally 3 years, and it means so much to me. Thank you, Joel.
Dude, my own father isn't in the best shape, he's probably not far off and I came to the comments cause I started to get teary. I don't know why but I thought of him too, the one person who that has only ever exceeded my expectations, then I see your comment and dammit if I'm not crying
The thing destroying me about this is that right by George's grave is another that reads "Ponderous Cody". The reason George doesn't have "Curious" written down on his tombstone is because he already found his answers.
This is seriously one of the greatest things to ever exist. Not even kidding. It's the perfect translation of the comedy and tragedy of life, told through a familiar and connecting medium and characters. It's damn near a perfect thing, dare I say... Perfect.

After rewatching this for the millionth time I still live this ep. Please keep making treasures like this Joel- give a glimpse of your Creativity while you still can. Fans may like certain things at certain times and make all sorts of requests but on behalf of all of them i say- Keep doing what you're doing
I keep coming back to this one, I love the mix of comedy and genuinely good messages. Especially in this era where almost everyone is dealing with existentialism In a sea of really great content this is probably your best video, Joel
I think one of the things that sticks out to me is that the quote on George's epitaph is still monkey noises. Nothing from his final words to Ted. Because George had nothing to say to the rest of the world, just to his best friend, The Man in the Yellow Hat. Someone he loved.
and remember, he didn't talk because he had nothing worth saying. Why nothing for his tombstone? Because he felt nothing for himself, only the ones he loved.
@@thehatter9400 Now I’m not gonna ignore that there was any message but “not a quip in sight” and even downplaying it to a “small bit” is hilarious, you channeling your inner English teacher?
I read this comment aright before the flowers moved expecting something profound…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………I was not disappointed.
Yooo fuck yea is this legit . Zack Hadel and Michael Cusack are talented as heck and I love that they're bringing yt/ newgrounds people to the forefront
I remember watching Curious George when I was younger, the movie was a work of art. This too as well, is a work of art. Not in the literal animation. But seeing George on his deathbed, giving some of the best advice ever, with "Upside-Down" playing in the back, brings a tear to my eye. Keep doing good work like this Joel Haver!
What. A. Rollercoaster. I went from giggling like a child, to serious adult introspection, then the depths of despair and lastly almost shed a tear at the cover of a freaking Jack Johnson song. Never stop doing what you do Joel.
The way you weave comedy, deep emotions, and the news cycle here is truly artful. Mad respect. Also, my cat was killed by third stage curiosity, so this hits.
it hits even harder if somebody's cat was killed by that same somebody's curiosity. he will never be forgotten. so sad, and so cruelly unfair, that something's gotta die for something else to grow up and stop being an asshole.
@@averymusicalperson more like pointing to sick shit that happens in this world like child trafficking it happens and yet nobody really talks about it and would rather talk about easy shit
@@MrSponge56It’s fascinating that you watched this skit and when he brought up pizzagate, instead of thinking “that sounds absolutely insane when you explain the conspiracy that way”, you thought “finally, someone else is acknowledging pizzagate for the real problem it is.”
@@tefweebz um it sounds absolutely sane? where have you been? missed the whole epstien situation? try actually looking into pizza gate, its real. i mean cmon an out of work actor storms the place and fires 1 shot from his gun that goes through a door and directly into the hard drive a a PC. leaked emails between people talking about pizza related things that sound exactly like the stupid codes drug deals use on the phone? Its just another epstein situation except this one was for even younger kids.. the rich and powerful can have anything they want so the only things left for them to want is things they cant (or shouldn't) have. i dunno you gotta be a special kinda blind or willfully ignorant to not see what has become blatantly obvious in the last decade.
The long silent shot at the monkey, which is actually a partially animated human, laying over a poorly drawn oversized bed is simply a cinematic masterpiece
I stumbled upon this while tripping tonight and it was just fucking perfect. I went down a rabbit hole of watching your work. Honestly it is an amazing work of art.
George is spitting facts. Love is the most important thing in this world. Not necessarily romance, just valuing those around you, or even showing kindness to anyone.
the elite are still trafficking African children though, I get that people can get too caught up in all the "conspiracy theories" but there needs to be some level of justice in the world.
I love how George's gravestone does not say Curious George. Before death he stopped being curious and learned the importance of embracing the people who love him, so now he is simply just George.
Wow brilliant explanation for someone who is not on board! Eye eye captain! Thanks, p.s. I still not knowning who is the curious George, but it's not the point
@@user-si3zv6os3c Curious George was a series of children's books in the U.S that was adapted into a movie in the 2000's. It was later made into a show on U.S Public Broadcasting Station (PBS).

luminati is an old group
After rewatching this for the millionth time I still live this ep. Please keep making treasures like this Joel- give a glimpse of your Creativity while you still can. Fans may like certain things at certain times and make all sorts of requests but on behalf of all of them i say- Keep doing what you're doing
I keep coming back to this one, I love the mix of comedy and genuinely good messages. Especially in this era where almost everyone is dealing with existentialism
In a sea of really great content this is probably your best video, Joel
The fact George was buried next to Ponderous Cody, but wasn’t buried as Curious George is a beautiful and bittersweet moment. Sweet dreams George
Ponderous Cody*
@@dante666jt good catch, edited to the actual name, thanks!
@@GlazednConfused sure, np. But ponderous pony sounded apt
He isn't curious anymore
@@dante666jt Not really since Cody is a human name similar to George.
I think one of the things that sticks out to me is that the quote on George's epitaph is still monkey noises. Nothing from his final words to Ted. Because George had nothing to say to the rest of the world, just to his best friend, The Man in the Yellow Hat.
Someone he loved.
You're going to make me cry dude
and remember, he didn't talk because he had nothing worth saying. Why nothing for his tombstone? Because he felt nothing for himself, only the ones he loved.
The Man in the Yellow Hat's name is Ted????
This was just a reveal that the man in yellow hat has a brain tumor and thinks he can understand monkey noises. 😊
This my favorite comment
This is both one of the funniest, and one of the deepest things I've ever watched.
A subscription well deserved. Good work my friend.
I... Uh.. wow this actually hits hard , certainly did not expect it to take such turn , it's like something right out of my mind/thoughts
This 5 minute animation carries more emotional weight than a lot movies can in 90 minutes. Joel's delivery is truly something special
Only because there wasn't a quip in sight, a serious scene but with a small bit of humor
@@thehatter9400 it’s curious fucking George wdym, a doctor walked in and he switched to oo oo aa aa dafuq bro 😂😂😂
@@thehatter9400 Now I’m not gonna ignore that there was any message but “not a quip in sight” and even downplaying it to a “small bit” is hilarious, you channeling your inner English teacher?
What a powerful quote to put on George's headstone. Truly encapsulates the dichotomy of man and monke
"Monké"
monke.
I read this comment aright before the flowers moved expecting something profound…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………I was not disappointed.
He was not a monke… he was an ape 😢
“It’s all tip…”
Can't wait to see you guys in Smiling Friends Season 2!!
Yooo fuck yea is this legit . Zack Hadel and Michael Cusack are talented as heck and I love that they're bringing yt/ newgrounds people to the forefront
I remember watching Curious George when I was younger, the movie was a work of art. This too as well, is a work of art. Not in the literal animation. But seeing George on his deathbed, giving some of the best advice ever, with "Upside-Down" playing in the back, brings a tear to my eye. Keep doing good work like this Joel Haver!
What. A. Rollercoaster.
I went from giggling like a child, to serious adult introspection, then the depths of despair and lastly almost shed a tear at the cover of a freaking Jack Johnson song.
Never stop doing what you do Joel.
Yeah it's wild from start to finish, stupid easy to forget that that's suposed to be a shitpost about a curious monkey
In all fairness Curious George's ost goes kind of hard. Jack Johnson did a good job on it.
Personally I was just laughing the whole time. Getting deep and philosophical with a cartoon monkey talking can only be so deep lmao
Almost? Not over the cover, but over the story.
The way you weave comedy, deep emotions, and the news cycle here is truly artful. Mad respect. Also, my cat was killed by third stage curiosity, so this hits.
it hits even harder if somebody's cat was killed by that same somebody's curiosity. he will never be forgotten. so sad, and so cruelly unfair, that something's gotta die for something else to grow up and stop being an asshole.
4th and final stage curiosity is terminal. there's still a chance of survival although a small one in 3rd stage.
This is a masterpiece. Thank you for this.
goddamn bro was not expecting to be broken down at the core.
I can't describe how perfect "Have you ever heard of pizza gate?" As an opener is.
Same vibes as quoting and bad meme
@@averymusicalperson more like pointing to sick shit that happens in this world like child trafficking it happens and yet nobody really talks about it and would rather talk about easy shit
@@MrSponge56 have you ever heard about "adrenochrome" ?
@@MrSponge56It’s fascinating that you watched this skit and when he brought up pizzagate, instead of thinking “that sounds absolutely insane when you explain the conspiracy that way”, you thought “finally, someone else is acknowledging pizzagate for the real problem it is.”
@@tefweebz um it sounds absolutely sane? where have you been? missed the whole epstien situation? try actually looking into pizza gate, its real. i mean cmon an out of work actor storms the place and fires 1 shot from his gun that goes through a door and directly into the hard drive a a PC. leaked emails between people talking about pizza related things that sound exactly like the stupid codes drug deals use on the phone?
Its just another epstein situation except this one was for even younger kids..
the rich and powerful can have anything they want so the only things left for them to want is things they cant (or shouldn't) have.
i dunno you gotta be a special kinda blind or willfully ignorant to not see what has become blatantly obvious in the last decade.
The long silent shot at the monkey, which is actually a partially animated human, laying over a poorly drawn oversized bed is simply a cinematic masterpiece
Absolutely this, 1000% this right here ☝️
this reads like an ai comment
This is one of the best videos I've seen.
why am i crying now and not any other time?
....i miss love
The sad version of George’s theme broke my heart, this video is actually perfect
Do you know which cover this is? I cant find it
@@TheCollos1 Upside down by Jack Johnson, he's my childhood hero
@@TheCollos1 It's in the video description. By Kevin Sloan @kevinkevinkevinkevinkevin
Joel Hover pulled a freaking Pixar on us.
Only Joel can blindside me like that. Came for the laughs, stayed for the love. thanks for another masterpiece, man.
!!!
this is the message i needed to live my life, thank you joel
I stumbled upon this while tripping tonight and it was just fucking perfect. I went down a rabbit hole of watching your work. Honestly it is an amazing work of art.
George is spitting facts. Love is the most important thing in this world. Not necessarily romance, just valuing those around you, or even showing kindness to anyone.
the elite are still trafficking African children though, I get that people can get too caught up in all the "conspiracy theories" but there needs to be some level of justice in the world.
Hear hear
Lies.
keep going man - love yourself, love your enemies. everyone deserves it
All you need is love. John Lennon. Smart man. Shot in the back, very sad.
1) that hit WAY harder than I was mentally prepared for damn
2) we need full version of Kevin Sloan cover of upside down ASAP
good time to be a heat fan huh
@based tortellini lol if you say so. Chose this name a long time ago and have since not followed sports all that much 😅
Yes please inject it into my soul
100% agree. That song spit bars
This is so beautiful! Love it.
Ok, but I'm honestly crying, which is the absolute last thing I expected from this video. This was perfectly beautiful! And the title, so poetic!❤❤😭
“Im dyin’ Theodore,” greatest delivery of a line in cinema
I am continuously impressed by your ability to ride the line between humor and the heavier things. This is gold.
It’s amazing. Joel must have some preternatural sense for where to cut things, especially without causing neck-breaking whiplash.
to be honest that had me crying but also questioning
This had me streaming. I love this video man.
I love how George's gravestone does not say Curious George. Before death he stopped being curious and learned the importance of embracing the people who love him, so now he is simply just George.
Wow brilliant explanation for someone who is not on board! Eye eye captain! Thanks, p.s. I still not knowning who is the curious George, but it's not the point
@@user-si3zv6os3c Curious George was a series of children's books in the U.S that was adapted into a movie in the 2000's. It was later made into a show on U.S Public Broadcasting Station (PBS). The song playing at the end of the video was the first song that played in the Curious George movie called "Upside-down" by Jack Johnson. The movie is very nostalgic to me and as movies made for little kids go Curious George is really good; George is just ridiculously cute.
Tombstone should have said "Epstien and George did not kill themselves."
@@toldyouso5588 Sssh. We have chuckleheads in this country who will take you seriously. And thus another conspiracy theory rockets across the internet.
Look it up
Everything in my life hit me hard and really came into perspective when George said, "it's always bananas."
No. 1 comment
Best comment
I loved that line! 😂
No way man I was reading your comment and when I I read the "is always bananas" the video said it too
Was absolutely not expecting this, but the end of this video genuinely touched me and my outlook on life. Thank you.
This is a cinematic masterpiece 😭😭
RIP curious George 2023🙏🪦🕊️
Also the upside down song is crazy because they play it in the animated movie and it’s too nostalgic
It’s amazing how you guys can write better dialogue and character interactions more than most Hollywood movies.
Thats because Joel actually puts his heart in what he makes.
Most of what you see from hollywood is just propaganda and psyops.
Hollywood is creatively bankrupt 😂
Especially with the Writer's Guild on strike.
holly wood is obviously trash but Joel is a great writer
@@a-s-greig On one hand I agree that writers need more pay for their efforts
On the other hand whens the last time hollywood put out something well written
Idk if this is the funniest or one of the deepest things I've ever seen. I think it made me tear up.
This short film was so inpirational, such an emotional roller coaster ti watch. this truly helped change my life
The Jack Jonson slow cover was sheer genius. I didn't realise at first as I was so upset that George had died. Very clever!! 😢
that was the song they used in the movie 😭 dont mind me just gonna cry
Shit got me cracking up when I heard it.
@@daveb7638 About half way through I was wondering why it sounded familiar, and then I realized and said "MOTHERFU--"
@@philcollinslover56705 what was the song?
@@gregvs.theworld451 haha
I clicked into this expecting some quick laughs, but this is legitimately a dramatic masterpiece. How you managed to cram such a range of emotions into a 5 minute video is well beyond me. You sir are extremely talented, thank you for these videos!
Well said.
you said it better then i could
Rip George😔
same. 😔
So many times I cried watching this, I learned so much from a simple video that I thought was going to be funny,.. Hit right in the feels. "There is so much you can do in this life that means nothing" , I live by those words now.
I actually found this extremely deep and entertaining. Subscription earned.
Dude you literally made me call my mom just to tell her that I love her. She thought something had happened. I guess something did 🤧❤️
❤️❤️❤️
❤️❤️❤️
❤❤❤
❤️❤️❤️
❤❤❤
I wasn’t ready for a tired curious George saying “do you know what pizzagate is?”
