So the cat in the hat was an omniscient and omnipresent trickster god that had to be nerfed in the second season. Got it
The characterization of "a trickster god" really fits the character.
The cat has existed in both the real world and the miniature world of the who's when he met the Grinch. he can cross space with ease
Hugo Lopez, Okay so is THAT where the whole him being overpowered came from? I really need this explained Because I came from memory lane to watch the video of the Classic Cartoon and a commenter mentioned something similar... I don't know if to feel scared or just impressed that one of my childhood book characters are legitimate badass's! Beerus would quake and have a heart attack from The Cat In The Hat!
I actually love the idea of an omnipotent trickster God as a host for a children's show
Loki is the Cat.
dr seuss: please don’t give my creative properties to outside companies
dr seuss: (dies)
dr seuss’ wife: hippity hoppity this is *everyone’s* property
TYPICAL WOMEN
As per usual, the wife has much better business sense than the husband does
Ideas are not and cannot be property, no matter how much governments and individuals may want them to be.
Bongo Supreme yes but making other kinds of media surrounding those ideas are property
its what happened with pl travers, author of mary poppins as well
I never thought that I'd hear the Cat in the Hat being referred to as a Trickster God, but here we are.
he kinda is. like Loki in a cat suit.
Oh god this better not become a new meme like the friggin Shaggy one.
@@joemama151 That meme got so horrible they want to put it in Mortal Kombat. 😷
Praise the Cat in the Hat. His trickster ways bring balance to nature!
It's not an inaccurate description, tbh.
I had a nightmare when I was 4 where I was falling into a black void while the puppet cat in the hat was laughing evilly at me. Great memories from this show!
Okay Sal, enough internet for today. You need to get a good sleep if you are to protect me from the neckbeard cringe.
It happens.
I had a dream similar to this 😂
😳 *backs away slowly*
I had a similar dream when I was four where Elmo walked toward me in a dark tunnel while snapping and wearing sunglasses.
I remember having this on VHS but never knew if this was an actual show?? Like I felt like I dreamt it but now I know I really did have it on VHS. I’m not losing my mind. Wow.
I felt the same way
me too! i have either a DVD or a VHS of it and i remember it was about some machine that sucked up furniture?
Yes
Duuuuddee I know exactly that feeling
Same I always thought that this was some extremely weird dream
Something that a lot of people don't give the Henson company credit for is the fact that all their puppets never look uncanny or creepy. That's the type of vibe I got from the show through this video
With the Muppets, yes. With them, Jim Henson completely mastered the art of modern, non-uncanny valley puppetry. The Creature Shop stuff, on the other hand, is a whole different ball game. Just look at the Skeksis from The Dark Crystal in comparison!
@@AnimeGames16 when they were making creepy looking puppets on purpose that also is something they were good at
@@AnimeGames16 I disagree to a minor degree- Skeksis were after all, intended to be scary 100% and with exception of the Emperor who dies in the first act, and the scientist, who is part cyborg, I would not call anyone 'uncanny', just creepy in a cool, menacing, intentional threatening way, they are very amazing puppets which for such a unique design, bear a striking amount of 'life' and personality in their faces. The emperor is supposed to be nearly dead, so it made sense for him to have that doll-like terrifying blank stare into the distance, while the scientist is probably supposed to the scariest one of all. The real culprit of Uncanny Valley syndrome, in my opinion in the Dark Crystal, would be the Gelflings, who are supposed to be the elf-like cute heroes, but have strangely the least expressive features, and their eyes hardly ever blink or change shape. They resemble stiff wooden dolls to me, where as the Skeksis have a lot more expressive movements in not just their facial structure, but their hands and body movements are extravagant and theatrical. There are many other Creature Shop puppets which are pretty awful in terms of Uncanny Valley factor. A lot are minor one shot puppets from tv specials or other children's shows.
@@avosmash2121 I totally agree with you on that actually! I guess I was just using the Skeksis as examples of notoriously creepy Creature Shop puppets, not entirely grasping the definition of uncanny valley.
Dark Crystal was nothing but creepy and uncanny. But apart from that I completely agree.
"Low stakes problems" idk why this made me laugh so hard. I mean yeah, they aren't equipped to tackle nuclear disarmament.
Dr. Seuss and Bakshi already had THAT covered with the Butter Battle Book! That animated short creeped me out as a kid.
"Alright Bear, if you can't find a way to get those hostages off the plane, the terrorists will kill them, which will prompt Russia to enter nuclear war with the US."
I wholeheartedly trust the cat in the hat with nuclear weapons
Heck, even Mr. Rogers had at least alluded to nuclear disarmament.
Ehh, ya just missed the pilot to Season 1.
I AM the thriving fan base, and I WILL die to defend my love of puppetry
PUPPETS.
AWESOME.
AND THATS ALL THERE IS TO SAY ON THE MATTER
The fnaf fandom is dying reshape if u r still a fan
Is there room in this sandbox for two? I loved this show as a kid as well! I remember the slightly darker-toned episodes and really enjoyed the slightly dreamlike creepiness. I remember one episode involved the characters being trapped in some sort of literal bureaucratic hell with a song about being trapped doing endless paperwork. That bit's stuck with me since childhood, and I always think of it whenever I go someplace like the DMV.
In that case I will be the third, weather you like it or NOT! >:)
Me too bruh
always love a story that starts with ‘this person spent their entire life choosing integrity over profits and before their body was even cold their inheritors destroyed that legacy.”
The muppets really capture the spirit of Seuss's work, oddly more than the 2D animated series you showed at the end, imo
Wait this wasn't something that I dreamt happened ITS REAL?!?!
Me Too!!!
Seriously I remembered this but couldn’t for the life of me remember what it was called or where I saw it
I know right?! Like the telescope scene and the intro brought back memories i had forgotten.
I thought the same thing
I get this feeling all the time with this show (defunctland that is)
all i remember from this show...
1. that it existed
2. the damn theme song that NEVER left my head.
all I remember is one guy couldn't finish anything? and that might not even be right? This is next level obscure.
gguru1 do you remember the big red thumper bumper
Death by tactical nostalgia strike. I LOVED, LOVED, LOVED a DVD I had of this show as a kid. Whenever I went up to my dad's camp, this was an immediate pop into the player as soon as the sun set.
Who are you? Who Who?
Seriously that song haunts my dreams to this day
honestly hearing these after so long put a tear in my eye. I remember watching this with my great grandmother and baking with her. it was so much fun. Well primarily the season 2 stuff. to be specific the cleaning one, indoor picnic and Terrence's birthday. I even once made a cake similar to that for my grandmother with my great grandmother.
i have such strong memories of the season two hello and goodbye songs. i had the dvds and i would watch them when i was a kid, they helped me through a rough time and gave me good memories even though there was bad.
@@wormonastring849 I watched those 3 episodes constantly on repeat, I think we both had the same DVD that only contained those ones
My brother and I still say Happy Bird Food Feeding day to eachother rather than birthday.
Such good memories.
SAME I HAVE THE DVD OF THOSE EPISODES
Damn I can't believe that anyone remembered this show. I knew of it only through a couple of VHS tapes I had of it back in 1999-2000. 20 years later and seeing this brings a smile to my face. Never realized they made more than those few episodes and it was actually a television show on Nick.
I had those VHS tapes too and I watched them quite a bit when I was little and I also didn't realize that it was a TV show on Nickelodeon I didn't think anyone cared about this show
Same. I forgot this existed actually, until I saw the opening in this video and was “oh… OH!”. I liked it for some reason. But I also absolutely loved this terrible movie about cat in the hat, I was huge fan of all dr Seuss related content I guess😅
It brings a frown to my face
Same here
I remember Allegra’s Window on nick jr. though. Apparently, most don’t
Do you remember what vhs tapes?
They should make an app where I can have Kevin’s voice read my articles for school
I need that intro music pumped straight into my veins pronto please
This guy knows what’s up.

Kevin, thank you for consistently pulling out the deepest memories of my childhood from my mind with every DefunctTV episodes. These are always so well made and always leave a smile on my face. Keep up the great work!
tbh i remember Season 2 more
Jessica Granados yo same
I had this on dvd, the most memorable part was making that big ass sandwich
Oh my gosh me too
Idk why but that shit cracked me up
Same! That’s the only episode of this show that I remember
That and the bird birthday cake
Nah it was the telescope
Here are some good shows to be done for DefunctTV
Fetch! With Ruff Ruffman
Blues Clues
Zoom
Clifford The Big Red Dog
The Magic School Bus
Bill Nye The Science Guy
What about Teletubbies Connor?
*sees teletubbie* Hans get the Flammenwerfer
Connor Akers BILL NYE THE SCIENCE GUY
Yes yes yes Fetch needs an episode
I would also like to add the show Little Bear to these lists please and thank you!
Do an episode on Lazytown.
You just read my mind!
We are number one
I'd like to see this. My son loved this show, especially season 3.
RIP Robbie Rotten
Oh yeah! That would beawesome! !
We are number one
Do you think you could potentially make an episode covering Blue's Clues? That show was a major staple of my childhood, and, while it isnt going to be defunct for any longer, with the new show airing soon, it didn't have any new episodes for a very long time, but the show was so popular that they brought it back so many times, with the 10th anniversary episode, that live Nickelodeon music show, there were so many things that were made because of the sheer amazingness and staying power of the show. I think it could be a good example of a show that was so popular, that even when the show was taken off the air, and Nickelodeon wanted to try to move away from it, the fans made it so that this show could never go defunct.
An 'early Nick Jr.' episode as an overview would be fun. Partially because I swore Tintin was on that early block, but I had completely forgotten about the Nelvana cartoon until the 2011 movie adaptation came out and it brought back my memories of the show.
@@governor_explosion I agree, this would be cool
Brevin mime too. I’d love to see an episode on that, especially since it’s getting a reboot called blues clues and you. Also, how did you feel about them making her talk?
Yes I 💙 blue
Same
Do fetch with Ruff Ruff man
Toad 456 I remember that! On PBS!
You gotta wonder what ever happened to all those kids who appeared on that show, i think all of them were from boston
YES!
This was my favorite PBS show! Yes yes yes!
YES
10:20 Joke's on those reviewers. Seussical's one of the most popular musicals for schools to put on nowadays.
Seussical has ascended
My high school performed it
True, my school's drama program performed it 2 years ago
Not so Amayzing that’s true, to the point of I’ve seen it and know people who have been in it for a high school production
That doesn’t mean it’s good...
Dr. Suess, not a fan of commercialism, is rolling in his grave at The Lorax (2012).
Welcome to the Metaverse am I the only one who loves the Lorax (2012)
@@georgerobertson7010 yes
Duroorud shoot!!
The only genuinely not good Sues film is Cat in the Hat.
I'm not even dead and I'm rolling in my grave for that ecofascist insult to the single greatest environmentalist story ever.
Aw I remember this show. I don't remember ever seeing the first season, but I do remember regularly watching the second season when it aired. My favorite part of the program was the transition effect when the Cat would look through the Wubuloscope. Whenever my family would go eat at our local McDonald's, back when most of them used to have indoor play places, I would pretend that the big tube slide was the Wubuloscope and hum that tune in my head as I was sliding down it.
That was back when I was 4 . . . now I'm 24 . . . Good God I'm Old!
Same! It's weird I have distinct memories of parts of it, but it feels like something I would have dreamt up or something, not like real memories if that makes any sense.
My favorite part was how much of a jackass Yertle the Turtle could be and seeing it come back to bite him. It was made all the more awesome after learning that Yertle was created as an allegory to Hitler.
I love this series
Me too
@Reid Vosburgh Probably given back to the henson shop or the puppeteers
same omggg
Same here
same here
I bet many people thought this show was a weird Muppets spin off for a while.
Why are you everywhere?!?!
2nd to comment
Dude I had no idea when it came out all I knew was When I was sick and watching netflix I found it and thought it was a accid trip type dream for the longest time until I found this video!
Seriously did you get your play button or not?
Illuminati
This show came out right after I started kindergarten, and I loved it. I remember I used to use VHS tapes like giant building blocks and I would make towers and cities all over my room and pretend I was living in the show.
I still remember getting a VHS tape of a collection of episodes of this show from my late Uncle Roger. I also remember absolutely loving it, since I grew up on Sesame Street and was obsessive with Dr. Seuss. To this day, I still occasionally use the word "Wubbulous" just to confuse people. Thank you for this video, it really took me way back!
I CANT MISS A SINGLE EPISODE FROM THIS BEAUTIFUL CHANNEL MY GOD.
Great video btw XD
Alaura R. Me either, they’re all just too good to skip out on!
@@cresomaIKR XD
Agreed
Agreed
Agreed
Fitting release timing, considering Netflix just today announced they were making a Green Eggs & Ham show...for some reason.
Their TV shows have always had a better success rate then the movies
Maybe it might involve more Dr. Seuss material as well. I don’t know how you could make a show just on a book that was made on bet on how little words can be used in said book.
Is it a cooking show?
@@zbroadcast3414 Nope, Apperently Sam and the other dude are on thr run
they’re making a WHAT now
Ok, this is actually starting to get weird. I was just thinking about this show and if you guys made a Defunctland TV video on it, and here it is. STOP SCARING ME!!! 😂
Same. I’m pretty sure I randomly remembered this show yesterday.
Dude this show was a huge part of my childhood. I remember being about 4 or 5 and building a fort out of couch cushions, plugging in my tiny, primitive DVD player, and chilling out to this show. That vacuum episode scared the crap out of me though.
Season 2 is the season that I remember the most. I remember the set design for Cat in the Hat’s lobby, the giant telescope and the map. When it comes to season 1, I have a vivid memory of the Grinch’s face in the intro, along with his evil laugh
I really want that grinch puppet
I wan't the turtle puppet.
superbowserplushness you’ll have to outbid me
i need little cat a
I would like Sam-I-Am or Horton! Maybe we can do replicas!
I don’t normally like to comment on videos, but I’d just like to pop in and say thank you. Your videos have helped me to reminisce about my childhood and the shows I thought no one else cared about, and have also helped me to remember a few shows (including this one) that were so important in my childhood but had been lost to me over time. Keep doing what you’re doing bud :)
I remember watching this all the time on Netflix. It was a great show.
Same
My oldest use to watch it on Netflix he loved it as a toddler
Superstar Candy I grew up with this show and I still love it! It was one of my absolute favorites.
In its day, they aired it on Nickelodeon in prime time. They aired a Nick Jr. show in the wrong time slot.
i grew up with 3 eps on dvd, and only just found out it was not only a real thing, but also 8-10 years old when i was watching it... gonna have to refind that dvd
7:55 "Along with the changes to the Cat, more little cats were added, confirming the existence of Little Cats A-Z in the Wubbulous World."
Dear god the Cat has been getting some action.
Despite not growing up with this show, I still feel like this was an important part of my childhood and I don't know why, which is disturbing to me.
I literally was thinking about this show a day before this came out, what are the chances.
What the heck, I was as well???
I just look for this show a week ago to see if it was real or not i am so glad it was
I WAS TOO
I am the Commenter, I speak for the Memes.

Thank you for the ♥️, Defunctland
So, in case nobody died of pure childhood memories, here's the list of DefunctTV episodes in order...
1: Bear in the Big Blue House
2: Legends of the Hidden Temple
3: Zoboomafoo
4: Between the Lions
5: The Wubbulous World of Dr. Seuss(The subject of this video.)
I don't know about you guys, but I actually grew up with 60% of these shows on a personal level. If that doesn't display how many of my feelings come back to me, then I don't know what else could.
What is the 40% of childhood nostalgia.
Actually, what I meant to say was that, so far in the series, I have contracted 60% nostalgia, rather than the implied 40%. However, this might drastically change if "The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh" or "Dragon Tales" get episodes in the future. Whether it's for better or for worse is up for debate.
I loved this show as a kid, I wasn't born when it aired but I remember having the second season on DVD. I was confused with the first season's design since apparently I was familiar with the season 2 layout. It felt good seeing this :)
Can you please do any episode featuring The Busy World of Richard Scarry? I think it'd fit nicely in this series.
So very well done!! You have a talent in making engaging content.
Bonus points for using footage from that "In Search of Dr. Seuss" movie. If you're a Seuss fan, that's a must-see.
i have that on DVD with a few other animated shorts! I should pull it out and watch it again..
This series is my absolute favorite thing ever thank you so much!
THIS SHOW WAS MY CHILDHOOD!!!!!! I'm so glad it hasn't been forgotten! I still have my DVD that had several season 2 episodes. I distinctly remember seeing the season one intro, though, so maybe it was a mix of different seasons?
This series is so nostalgic to me. I remember watching it nearly everyday on dvd.
Thank you so much! I legit grew up on this show.
I am not the only kid who watched this, this show always scared me especially the episodes with the Grinch he always got me with his weird evil smile and his gross yellow eyes I still watched it though.
And didn't Netflix had this show on it
hey kev im gonna need you and your end animator(s?) to stop doing that thing you do at the end of each defunctTV episode that makes me sad
@Wesley Johnson Me either, nor the Bear in the Big Blue House one
There is something very sweet and melancholy about how these end.
Yeah the NordVP thing makes me weep every time
Aahh memories! 😊
I still have my old Wubbulous DVD from when I was little. It contained episodes from both seasons and I loved it a lot. Heck, my older sister and I still shout out "BATULLA BATULLA" to this day. 😂
4:11 Sid the Science Kid before he had his own show
Will Dragontales or Big Comfy Couch be next? :D
Holy shit I remember Dragontales
"With Loonette and Molly, a girl and her dolly, on the big comfy couch!" Still trying to do the damn clock stretch!
Big Comfy Couch was one of those shows I watched all the time as a small kid, that and Blues Clues were probably the ones I watched and then played the most. and Dragon Tales will always be a favorite from when I was a bit older. randomly get it's theme song stuck in my head out of nowhere at times.
I really want an episode on Big Comfy Couch!
Oh my God big comfy couch was my jam at age 3
Thank you Kevin for another amazing video of DefunctTV. Dr. Seuss is one of my personal heroes and has inspired a lot of my wacky humor. As for the show itself, having The Jim Henson Company make a show about Seuss was a perfect match as Muppets and Seuss have many similarities. Also, thank you for using clips from In Search of Dr. Seuss. I thought I was the only one who remembered that documentary.
This and "Allegra's Window" had some solid puppetry. Now can we get a defuncTV on Adventures in Wonderland?
Well that's my fever dream show, Alongside eureka's castle.
Both were quite rather underrated, too.
THIS is how you should pay tribute to Dr. Seuss, Universal.
This show has no fanbase? *Let's make one*
Welcome to The Internet, where it is a rule that EVERYTHING has a fanbase, and if it doesn't it will soon be made.
An old cancelled show! I'LL FANBASE IT! *NO ONE WILL EVER KNOW!!!!*
With blackjack and hookers.
I AM the fan base
*puts on cat in the hat pajamas* HECK YEAH!!
I knew I wasn’t the only person to remember this!!!
I've only seen 1 episode when I was younger
Fantastic video! You always do a phenomenal job of covering every aspect of each show or whatever it is that you happen to be covering. Have you ever considered making an episode on The Book of Pooh?
Rachel Ross that would be interesting. I used to watch that show when it was on, and I had a few episodes on VHS. I wonder why the show was canceled.
OHHHH my god. I have a Wubbulous World DVD somewhere packed away. We bought it for my cousin when he was a little kid. He would watch ten minutes and walk away. Before I knew it, my mom and I would be watching the whole thing while my cousin played with his toys. I never thought I’d see a video on this! Love it.
Ever since seeing that hard work and passion that was put into the Jim Henson videos I can honestly say that this is one of the Best Channels on TH-cam.
I noticed that the Lorax never appeared in the series.
Garth Davis same here!!
I think that yellow creature in the season one opening was the lorax
KamenCJ no it wasn’t.
@@georgerobertson7010 I think it was it looked like an altered version
KamenCJ no it was Alvin the alien, he’s a completely original character
I had a DVD for this series. I can still vaguely remember the premises and episodes, it’s nice to remember the past every now and then
DALEJRFAN88 (: did it have the big red thumper bumper
The Otter Animator I dunno its all a blur
Sometimes it's best to forget.
Please do Gullah, Gullah Island next!
Man. Got an ad right after one of the opening sequences. It flowed so seemlessly from the puppets to some Saving Private Ryan themed game I was like "I don't remember that Dr. Seuss book"
the butter battle reboot looks great
I WORSHIPPED this show and own both seasons on dvd. The one episode I watched on repeat was the indoor picnic because to my 3 year old brain watching puppets smear paint onto craft foam was absolutely thrilling
Wubbulous world of Dr Seuss: "I'm the best media based on Dr Seuss's stories"
Netflix's Green Eggs & Ham: "Imma finish this show's whole career"

@@victoriabell9546 the Green Eggs and Ham show is awesome
Cutest show ever!!!! How could anyone dislike this adaptation of Suess?
elflvr04 I love this show as well.
Everything on this channel is pure gold. The incredible production value and entertainment these provide is beyond me. Keep up your absolutely amazing work
I saw the Seussical live back in the day. Starring Aaron Carter for some reason. I only remember two things about it: 1. That it mostly involved Horton Hears a Who and the Better Butter Battle, and 2. and there was a gag right before Intermission where the curtain fell during the final note, and then fell completely to the stage. That was my favorite part of the musical.
I did this musical in high school! :D
@@SEGASister I'm *doing* this musical this year in high school!
I loved the tunnel you always went through in the show. The sets were my favorite part of the show as a kid.
Hey Kevin! I'm a fan from Brazil, and as english is not my native language, I think you could let people contribute with captions, so it's going to be better for foreign people to watch. Keep this nice work!
There is this one show that I forgot the name of but would be a great DefunctTV episode. All I remember is that there were multiple people dressed in colored costumes, each character a different color. Every episode the characters tried to find the character named Moe, a yellow or green person that said, “Here I am!” He is the only character that I remember the name of. Also, I remember seeing an animated reboot of the show (like Wild Kratts). I saw the show in the early 2010’s, I think. Since the animated version looked more polished than the original, I am pretty sure that the live action show is canceled. I’m pretty sure this show aired on Noggin, but I am not 100% sure about it. If anyone can remember the show name, then that would be great.
Doodlebops?
i had the same memory for the longest time and i thought i had just dreamed it until my friend said she said she remembered it too. its called the doodlebops i beleive.
@PikaPlayer Gaming
That sounds a lot like The Wiggles. A show where four male characters dressed in red, green, blue, and purple respectively. Their costumes weren't really that special, just plain matching shirt, and pants.
The show would be them doing random things, losing Jeff (the guy in purple) and singing about it, finding him, and sometimes signing "hot potato, cold spaghetti" .
Does this ring any bells?
@@thepuzzlemaster64 no its the doodlebops I doubt any of the wiggles are named Moe
Holy shit I remember that. I'm 90% sure that that was a British Kids show that was on Time Warner Cable's On Demand. That's how I saw it, at least.
I remember watching this as a kid as something I rented back in the early mid-2000's on either VHS or DVD. It had either just one or 2 episodes, maybe 3, on it and I remember kinda liking it. I had thought it was kinda strange seeing the Dr. Seuss characters in Muppet form.
So far, so good. I'm loving this series. So far it's all been stuff from my childhood. I hope you do some other children shows I watched as a kid, such as The Big Comfy Couch, Wimzie's House, The Noddy Shop, and maybe The Toy Castle.

Man I remember renting these on VHS from my local library when I was a little kid. This’ll always hold a special place in my heart, so nostalgic.
I loved this show as a kid! So many wonderful memories watching this.
This show scared me so much because of Cat in the Hat. I hated him. I hated watching this show. I watched this at my grandma's house. The only one I liked was Horton. Everyone else scared me.
My sister thought she dreamed one of the episodes where they get sucked into the vacuum.
We still have the DVDs since my grandma moved. But they freak me out. Too much. I miss Bear in the Big Blue House, though. The mouse was super cool.
Oh yeah. In Universal, the Grinch wanted to fight my dad, and me. I never went on the cat in the Hat ride there when I went the first time, when I was 5. I was scared of it. But then when I was 13, we went back. I hated the ride. I went on twice. My sister made the ride stop the second time because she wanted to take a picture, and I wanted to die and cry. I was...scared of the live action cat in the Hat. I still am because of the nightmare I had.
Just a girl who wants to tell some stories. I’m so glad I’m not the only one! The live action versions of the cat in the hat and grinch terrified until I was almost 14
@@receivinglemons4245 I'm still afraid of that Cat! I won't watch that movie, or make anyone watch it.
Tudder was the best character
Can you please do the History of Allegra’s Window?
And Eureka's Castle! I've heard that some of the folx that worked on one show, went on to work on the other. Kinda like how Bear from Bear in the Big Blue House, was originally Magellan from Eureka's Castle!
One of the comments reminded me of the kids show Doodlebops. IDK much about it, but that could be a good idea for another Defunct video if its history is interesting enough.
Doodlebops! The show whos theme still pops in my head every now and then to this day.
I have been watching the show and... I think that the first season holds up better as a family show and a faithful representation of Geisel's work because he can be dark when he needs to!
I used to read Dr. Seuss books when I was young! They were so fun to be read by everyone! There were rhymes in every page in a book to be read by kids of a young age! The ending was effective with great "wubbulatastic" perspective!
You know even though dr.seuss never had children he some how did through his books. Like he secretly knew that even though he would not have children he some how would through his books and despite not liscencing his characters he knew that these characters will have to live on after his death and that much like with the shorts adaptations of his books he knew the books would one day be adaptated again but for a bigger screen and with some small to big differences from his original stories. In other words he was some how ahead of Hollywood and his own company beyond his books.

Bryce McKenzie omg I remember that show. I was so sad when there was no season 6. Also the video games on the web site were pretty sick

Well, he's currently doing a massive multi-vid cover of Jim Henson's puppet career leading up to (and including) his work with The Muppet Show, so does that count?
Spencer McClure IDK
I had a first season episode on a Jim Henson DVD, which when I got older, I had vague memories of it, including memories of dreams after watching it to sleep, and after I found the case, it didn't have a DVD inside, and when I found the disc in a DVD zip-up thing. It was scratched up, but I didn't figure this out until it froze and glitched out after the Wubbulous World of Dr. Seuss ended. It was protected from breaking by a DVD in front of it called Noah's Ark, which is broken in three seperate pieces now. With all that said, this video left me happy to see the Wubbulous world again.
At 4:50 I really thought the cat said "I'm a god here" for a second
I was hoping you'd do this in rhyme.
Wait till nostalgia critic comes to the show
I wonder he thought of that at the time...
Dr Suess: (dies)
Couple years later
The Wubbulous World of Dr. Suess: (Defunct)
17 years later
Blue Sky: orders "Horton hears a who"

Dunfuctland, don't you believe it?
Now here's a piece of Dr.Suess history that literally no one talks , so thanks for covering it😃👌
I loved The Wubbulous World of Dr. Seuss as a kid, and I still do! I'm glad it still airs on Starz Kids & Family (I have Optimum).
TOMM MY BOYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY! HOW YOU DOOOOOOINNNNNNG?
@@ACMEDetective I'm doing good. :)
I remember getting this on Easter at age 6. I watched it heavily, I love the puppet stuff like this. I thought this was a straight to DVD show, it's cool to learn that it ran on Nickelodeon.
Damn Kevin! Great episode and one of watched to boot!
Thank you for the heart!
What a treat
I loved Yertle The King! The song was funny! I also always thought that the cats were the cat in the hat’s kids.
