    "Why do I have the sudden urge to beat up an LA motorist?" Has the vibe of an Animaniacs line you didn't get as a kid but then shocks you that it got past the censors as an adult.

      ​​@@timeweoyaYes, it was. 1990s cartoons were filled to the brim with dubious jokes that little kids wouldn't get, but parents and older viewers would. Check out any rerun of classic Animaniacs or any 1990s Nickelodeon or Cartoon Network original show. However, a reference to the Rodney King beating does seem like one of those jokes that would only get told once in a kids' cartoon, because all reruns would either ban the episode or cut/alter the joke due to complaints from parents and media watchdog groups. Then again, "Tiny Toon Adventures: How I Spent My Summer Vacation" had a quick reference to Paul Reubens' (the guy known for his Pee-Wee Herman character) arrest for lewd conduct in an X-rated theater not long after he decided to end "Pee-Wee's Playhouse" due to exhaustion, so, hypothetically, this wouldn't be too off-base. Off-color, yes, but not off-base.

      I was thinking late 1990s/early 2000s Cartoon Network. Or Nickelodeon in that weird middle after Ren and Stimpy went off the air because of John Kricfalusi's foolishness but before SpongeBob became a hit. Back when only good cartoons they had were Kablam! (that animated comic book hosted by two kids named Henry and June), CatDog (which is either a underrated and wrongfully maligned masterpiece or a sign that Nickelodeon was desperate for a hit cartoon), Rocko's Modern Life (which was starting to falter a bit because Joe Murray's first wife died and he was so depressed that he didn't want to work on the show anymore), and whatever was considered popular on "Oh Yeah! Cartoons". Heck, I'll even accept it as a Kids WB or non-Disney ABC cartoon that only lasted a season because of either parent complaints or the executives deciding that it wasn't a good fit, even though its ratings were good.

I also remember that Disney listed the voice actors under the credit: "With The Vocal/Voice Talents of", which was captured here brilliantly (the non-Disney shows usually used "Starring", "Voices", or "Cast", but most did pair the VA with their characters, something Disney didn't do on their TV shows, but did do in their movies).

      In the British version, Gex was pretty much just a parody of James Bond. He was really good with an awesome voice, but a simple joke. In the American version, they made him into a attention-seeking try hard who constantly spat out one liners just to get some kinda reaction out of the people around him, positive or negative. This awesome short highlights that perfectly. He doesn’t care if he annoys people or pisses them off with his rambling, he just keeps going because he loves the attention he gets from it.

      A TV show about Gex honestly doesn’t sound like a bad idea; and it would be an improvement over Fairly OddParents: Channel Chasers. So in this video, a Gex Cartoon Series would be about Gex and Agent Xtra (who were a married couple, according to the N64 version of Gex 3) traversing multiple TV Channels of the Media Dimension with the use of a Red Remote to open portals from nearby TVs; most of the stories revolve around Gex having to battle against his arch-nemesis Rez Ranald, who wants to kill Gex for declining his offer to be a mascot for his diabolical schemes of controlling the Media Dimension with cynical programming full of a Bad TV Shows and Z-Grade Movies; but most of all, Gex and Xtra share a love for TV and their team up helps ensure that pop culture stays #1 throughout the Media Dimension.

    I believe without a doubt that Gex could 100% work as a mature animated series today.

It worked for Rocko's Modern Life: Static Cling. And it can work for Gex too, provided the writers actually understood his character (ideally having played the original games) and didn't reduce him to his most basic traits repeating ad nauseum.

    As someone who was a full-blown teenager in the 90s when Tiny Toons, Animaniacs, The Tick, and later Freakazoid were current TV shows, THIS would have torpedoed them straight out of the ocean! Fox Kids could probably air this given the liberties granted during that time period minus the "dammet" part JMO.

    I legit thought this was part of the games cutscenes or something in Gex 3.
    If you look closely at 0:30 he says "Oh, its tail time" and it seems like the end of a cutscene and start of a new map or something.. Though, finally understanding its animated by the talented FlippinDingDong, I was legit shocked on how well they did with the whole vide of this thing.. Its also got me wanting to see a real animated series like "The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!"..
