I love how these two went from lovebirds, to your typical "marriage is an obligation" stereotypical trope, to lovebirds again lol
They just hit a little rough spot
In real life couples tend to have a bit of a falling out that on a 50/50 whim ends in divorce, followed by a reconciliation (the remarriage part). Not all relationships are static like that.
Timmy was toxic
@@nevaehhamilton3493 They were actually lovebirds OR at least tried in the 1-3rd season, then - well, what a trainwreck…and now this - but I do think it’s because Cosmo and Wanda spent *way* too much time with Timmy.
@@eatatjoes6751 I like to think Butch Hartman's Christian influences ruined them.
I joked to my brother once that Anti Cosmo and Anti Wanda should have gotten more complex as characters as the show went as a reverse to Cosmo and Wanda's flanderization, and then He said "their marriage gets better over time" and I think about it all the time.
The capitalization of "He" on this comment is sending me. Like, you were talking to your brother, and God just had to say something.
@@youdontknowwho505 Counter point, the brother IS God
Absolutely perfect. On a similar note I think about what their version of Floating With You would be like on a near consistent basis. I was obsessed with the AF’s as a kid (and Blonda and Schnozmo but that’s neither here nor there) and I always wanted more of them, particularly AC and AW.
I haven't really watched the show since I was a kid, but IIRC they only portrayed their anti fairy counterparts as being in a positive relationship?
@@usermcskull4713 I was fixated on Anti-Cosmo for perhaps longer than I cared about the actual show! I believe the only mean thing he's ever said to Anti-Wanda was (paraphrased) "I love you, but you're kinda stupid" and in fairness, she did just get him in trouble and his tone was very "not mad, just disappointed".
Anti-Wanda has never said anything rude to him as far as I remember. So, yeah! In their little bit of screen time together, they are one of the healthiest relationships in a Butch Hartman cartoon
I like how at the end it's basically just "Cosmo and Wanda got therapy" which honestly slay tbh
Genuinely happy for them
So glad that they're actually in love again in the new series
@@WhirlyBeepBoops100% agreed. Cosmo and Wanda have been one of my favorite couples forever, so to see them like this, again, makes me really happy. 💖 I really hope we get more episodes of the new show.
Cosmo and Wanda got back to where they are after dealing a lot of troubles that Timmy caused.
Don't let this distract you from the fact that, before he met Wanda, Cosmo is canonically responsible for the destruction of Pompeii, sunk Atlantis into the deep ocean 9 times, and turned Xanadu turned into Pittsburgh, which removed Jorgen from being a 5-star general.
how'd he sink it *9* times
I think he dunked it in the ocean repeatedly?
Whoa. When you say Pittsburgh do you mean in Pennsylvania??
Cosmo was kinda pondered by Will Smith and Frank Reyonlds but Wanda hated his bad character lol.
@@Wailerman It rose again. And he sunk it again. Etc.
every time you brought up a "wife bad" joke I shook my fists and went "BUUUUUTCH!" like mr turner about dinkleburg
LMAO FR
"There's only one reason Cosmo would ever threaten his wife with anime death lasers:
*extreme closeup into squinting eyes*
...HARTMAN..."
@@Montesama314 cue that one clip from the Valentine's episode of SpongeBob where Patrick says "I DEFY YOU HEART MAN"
Don’t ever forgot that one of Cosmo and Wanda’s previous godchildren canonically killed Archduke Ferdinand and started World War I.
Holy shit, they were Gavrillo Princeps godparents?!
LMFAO NO WAY
@@Taizu314no, it was a girl, he was framed for it
Headcannon: When Timmy forgot his faires, all the magical and outlandish adventures he went on got re-written into just him playing pretend as a kid
That was always the impression I got with how they portray kids growing out of needing their fairies. Wanda even explains it as them ceasing to believe.
well that's gentler than my theory of being explained as childhood memory loss due to trauma, since the kids who get fairies are the ones who would have a lot of trauma
@@Romanticoutlaw We get a memory wipe ala Men in Black at one point
Like in frozen!
I feel like that makes so much sense that it's canon
I dunno I personally thing Timmy keeping them CAPTURED AGAINST THEIR WILL FOR 50 YEARS might put a strain on their marriage. It could be that they were subconsciously attacking the only people they could, each other. With Timmy gone, that probably helped alot.
Cover that in the new wish section 🤌
no
This reminds me of my friend’s son
It makes a lot of sense, though. Godparents can't risk being found out, or they go away forever, and they don't often get the chance to interact with other fairies. So, being constantly stuck with one person in a stressful situation is going to cause conflict
I saw a bit of the first episode and saw Cosmo and Wanda disguised as and interacting with regular adults. This. They need more of this in their lives. Socializing beyond each other.
I think I would have liked the idea of Wanda being book smart and Cosmo being street smart. That would have been so cute and they could have worked better with their strengths and weaknesses. I hated that they quickly ended up hating each other in the show. It took no time that even as a kid I wondered why they were together.
@@anonymouslucario285 The OP doesn't say that he hated the show, he just hated the flanderization of Cosmo and Wanda's character that ruined their married relationship in the later seasons of the original series (and all thanks to Timmy's "secret wish" that somehow drastically changed their fate until recently in The New Wish series).
@@poweroffriendship2.0yeah, I agree. They are talking about how the director who took on the show made their dynamic to the boomer humor of “I hate my wife.” It wasn’t fun to see as a kid for me either lol
When I was a kid, I thought that they were siblings because they had sibling energy
1:27 Cosmo calling Wanda "pookie" gives me life
Also I was entirely right in thinking you would enjoy A New Wish
OMG I just realized it was pookie- that's so cute
And also, wanda called him a stallion.
Which is... also cute.. And *This Sentence is censored by the Chinese Government*
@@GingerSnap_Kookiesame
I learned recently that Pook can mean fart in Russian so this is hilarious and gives me life at the same time. XD Calling Wanda "Fartie" 👌
Editing Athena shouting "Seventies!" over and over was great.
After watching I've come to the conclusion that Cosmo and Wanda's marriage wasn't strained because they grew apart, it was strained *PURELY BECAUSE OF TIMMY.*
They started happy because Timmy was a fresh face, a new start, so to speak. But then as time went on, Timmy would ask things of them that started to divide them. They would disagree on a lot of stuff about Timmy, and that would cause personal issues. However as they started having other people to talk to/interact with, they were more happy. First it was Poof, then Sparky, then Chloe, and at every step they would love each other more and more. Heck, they even say that they were too close and cramped in Timmy's fishbowl because WHO WOULDN'T BE. It seemed like, although they tried not to get found out, _Timmy_ was the one who made them hide.
Then with Hazel they seem so happy and completely free to do whatever, and when you consider that they had a 10,000 year break from Timmy, everything just kind of lines up: Timmy was draining their energy, causing them to be more aggressive with each other. The more outlets both Timmy and Cosmo and Wanda had, the happier the pair seemed to be.
That... makes so much sense omg
Well ... No wonder why there is an episode that revells that everyone's life is better whitout Timmy ( Wich kinda sucks and is one of the most hated episodes but ... If you look closely on all the selfish actions that Timmy does along the series ... Yah i Just don't know how to end this so ... Yuh)
@@maironzulato7351 oh my god.
Timmy is a scourge* on the life of those whom he considers friends. He, intentionally or not, slows down and halts people’s progress toward their own goals to excel in the progression of his own.
*Edit: Scourge is a bit excessive and hyperbolic; he _is_ a kid. But I stand by the rest of what I said: he was extra stress that was put on Cosmo and Wanda’s relationship, but by no fault of their own (they being all three of them.)
or because of character flanderization though lmao
@@xzkilerymax8395 let’s be real every problem these characters have is thanks to Bitch Fartman 🙃
Future Athena yelling 70s in quick sucession has me wheezing.
It's gotta be my favorite bit from the channel 😭
I was wondering if I was going crazy, I thought it was a video that started playing in my background.
"and now I'm making everything worse by repeating everything you're saying in the into the microphone?" I love the SpongeBob movie so fuckin much lmao
29:35 it's so good 🤭
Cosmo’s voice was originally inspired by a used car salesman
I always thought it was based on Phil Hartman.
@@saint_squared525Well, he does sound like Phil Hartman.
@@saint_squared525It started like that, but after Phil Hartman tragically passed away (months before the pilot’s release,) Cosmo’s VA dropped that specific cadence out of respect.
@@LeafRazorStorm that's oddly sweet...
Casmo mom is the spinning image of a toxic boy mom
THIS BRO THIS
I think the robotic fairy hybrid were translated into the Pixies, they ain't robots but they are very mathematical and square, also pixies is probably because of the similarity with pixels
Wait I love this I 1000% agree!!
A pun also utilized in Super Paper Mario
Watching Athena complained about the marriage of two green and pink haired fairies is oddly therapeutic ngl
Cosmo and Wanda had a perfect character dynamic right away, "We're two halves of a whole idiot". And it was downhill from there.
I think what makes A New Wish so good is that not only are writers from Infinity Train and Craig of the Creek (two top tier shows) working for the show, but Butch Hartman isn't AS involved, only being a producer.
Craig of the Creek Writers Are PERFECT for this type of show.
It's absolutely insane that it's CANON that Cosmo and Wanda became worse people when they became Timmy's fairy godparents, that would be like Sheen and Carl being happier without Jimmy or Squidward and Patrick being happier without Spongebob... which also might even be the case... jeez, when did cartoon main characters become huge jerks, apparently.
You lost me with the spongebob one I think Patrick is the jerk there
@@AthenaPOfficial True, but I guess Patrick counts as a main character too since he has his own spin-off, regardless Im accidently making the wrong point. I never really saw Timmy (or even Jimmy until I saw your video) as an "awful" person until you either catch the few times they are truly awful to even the ones close to them or you see how happy other characters are without them. I was mostly just throwing out random cartoons to show how absurd it is at the notion that the side characters would be happier without the main character until I realized those random examples were actually true too. Nothing against Spongebob but obviously Squidward would be happier and Patrick looks like he's doing fine without him in his spin-off so...
I mean, apparently that’s what bikini bottom thinks. We can’t forget about “National No SpongeBob Day” 💀
@@kratangg-arang THIS.
Wanda and Cosmo retiring for a while and rebuilding their relationship, to allow for new individual characterization and new dual dynamic, was a really brilliant move.
18:40 I kinda like this gag because, in a later scene, Wanda throws Cosmo halfway across the stadium (for unrelated reasons) and he just shouts “I should really listen to her more!” And thus, the universe is balanced.
Another instance of Cosmo needing to be humbled hahaha
I love their dynamic in the pilots where they’re madly in love and Cosmo is the more outgoing risk taker while Wanda is more reserved and calculated. Casue Wanda brings Cosmo back down to earth and Cosmo helps Wanda step out of her comfort zone.
Glad to see that they did that in the new show!
Green and pink are a really cool combination of colors. I wish I saw it in public more.
Green & Purple as well as Green & Orange are also great colors
@devonmunn5728 true, but green and pink are complementary colours, so they tend to be used more
They’re literally one of if not literally my favorite color combos. I can’t tell if it’s because of them or Ben x Julie, but I always loved seeing them together.
Ain't no way i heard Cosmo call Wanda "pookie" 💀
Okay Butch must have some marriage issues going on because why did he fuck up a happy marriage, like if you hate your marriage fine but keep that miserable crap out of my cartoons
Honestly seeing how he works closely with his wife and their god-fearing faith healing bologna… I don’t think it’s him hating his wife as much as him hating women in general…or domineering women who disagree with their husband.
But then there’s Sam Manson from Danny Phantom who is dominant and proactive in her beliefs, but she’s also treated as an annoying nag by her best friends/love interests.
Sam is a weird character that I don’t know what Butch Hartman really was trying with her in comparison to Wanda. Danny Phantom was a show he really wanted to make and so I wonder what makes Sam seem less like someone to crap on vs Wanda. Sam is still crapped on, but not to the extent Wanda is. It’s weirdly complicated.
I think them feeling "cramped" in the fishbowl is a nicer way of saying that even though they loved Timmy, he kind of made them worse people. Being around TImmy made them feel smothered and stifled. Canonically that little castle in their fishbowl was Bigger On The Inside and the interior was basically a _real_ castle with different wings and everything. I'm pretty sure it was implied that they had been moving it between godkids before they got to Timmy (but I mostly think that because of how they had sections set up to show their history and they were in the middle of adding TImmy to it.).
I think people can go kind of hard on hating Timmy, but the show notes all the time that TImmy having his fairies for so long and making wishes so often is highly unusual. I think having Cosmo and Wanda gave him a sense of comfort and control that he didn't otherwise have in his life and he hated the idea of losing it, and I think that can co-exist with Timmy also being a selfish and mean-spirited person who stopped time so that he could be happy.
(I think the concept of Fairy Godparents seems kind of messed up to begin with. If there's a kid miserable enough, they get Godparents. Ok, cool. But if they get to be too happy, the Fairy/Fairies get taken away and everything they wished for disappears. And that also happens if they get too old. Why give the Fairies at all then, if the happiness they bring can't even be a fun memory to revisit? It makes sense that eventually they would end up with a kid like Timmy who is smart enough to keep his fairies and desperate not to lose them.)
I love how they are both "two sides of the same idiot" in the new show again.
Also really world marriages are also themed, like the 5th aniversary is the wood one or the 20ths is the Silver one.
Two halves of a whole idiot*
"Um..50 years ago..🤓"
EXCUSE ME????
The way my jaw DROPPED when I heard this little lore nugget. I completely forgot about this line. No one noticed until now??? Does Timmy have the mentality of a 50+ year old but is perpetually stuck in the body of a 10 year old??? This is horrifying and I can't move past it 😭
No bc his brain couldn't develop in his 10yo body.
If we learned anything from Cosmo and Wanda's marriage going from hopeless idiots madly in love to completely in shambles to back to love with each other, it's that some time to let loose from your stressful job of looking after a kid 24/7 really helps relationships. And off-screen therapy. Lots and LOTS of therapy.
fan theory, the end of the Oh Yeah shorts is when Tommy made his wish to stop people aging. The deterioration of the characters around him and their relationships is a result of their suspension in that moment. also doug dimmadome is Sans from Earthbound
Hazel is Frisk from Undertale.
That makes sense from a lore standpoint
When the series officially starts, all the things that made the Oh Yeah shorts good got fucked up
His parents became incompetent, Vicky went from a mean teenager to pure fucking evil, his real life friends got reduced from background characters to non existent to make more room for wish shenanigans
Oh my god, THAT'S where Timmy's parents' faces not being shown came from?? The Oh Yeah, Cartoons??? In the deepest recesses of my mind, I remember Fairly OddParents not showing Timmy's parents' faces throughout multiple episodes, but I thought I was going crazy! I knew there was the pilot, but I thought that was it, I didn't know they had multiple "pilot"-esque episodes!
Specifically, they had ten “Oh Yeah” cartoons, and they accounted for about a third of FOP’s reruns back in 2001 (because the first real season was just THAT short.)
Very Cow and Chicken-esque
I’m only now learning about these multiple shorts and those being where the “snake transition into a milkshake” bit in the intro came from. Always felt random to me as a kid
I found Cosmo a huge idiot, but the episode of him standing up to his mom was huge for me. Because my dad never did that to his mom and it was the first time i saw a cartoon dad (or anny dad) standing up to his toxic boy mom.
Petition for Athena to do the Numberjacks, I need to see her mock the British more (sincerely a British person) plus it's an uncertified banger.
I need to hear her takes on the villains oml 😂
i agree with this so much omg (sincerely another british person)
YES PLEASE I SECOND THIS
THE NUMBER JACKS WERE MY CHILDHOOD BRO YEEEEESSSS
And beautiful beautiful Number Blocks? (not a Brit, just enchanted with them much in the manner I was with Grandpa in my Pocket that time I discovered it while sick at a fancy hotel)
I had to make this meme while it's still June
Jorgan: Cosmo, Wanda, It is Pride Month! You know what that means!
Wanda: Wha?
Wanda: You want us to grant, like, gay wishes? What?
“Youll see cosmo and wanda you aint slick as a response”
*stares at cherry blossom & joe from sk8 infinity*
Fun fact: The Oddbaby special was meant to be theatrical but ended up being cancelled into a TV one due to substantial similarities with the Rugrats movie with Dil….and that honestly explains a lot.
I like the idea of Cosmo being incompetent but honestly trying.
I feel like Timmy was the cause of their toxicity and were stuck with him for 50 years. If Timmy shows up for an episode or cameo in the new show I can just imagine Cosmo and Wanda having war flashbacks and possible PTSD
Damn so whenever the two of them get with literally any other godchild, their marriage improves exponentially, I guess it’s a wishful life was correct, everyone would be much better if Timmy was never around
I still wonder where Poof is though. Since he’s Cosmo and Wanda’s very first child.
@@FeligamiAdrizoeSworaBunnydollwatch season ten and find out
@@madnessarcade7447I’ve watched Certifiable super sitter before. Also Poof didn’t have his normal speaking voice for some reason. Which bothered me.
They go from Love, to toxic, to love again. Honestly, I'm glad things worked out between them. I've always loved the fairly oddparents ever since I was kiddo. And seeing Cosmo and Wanda take a turn for the better warms my heart.
I love how Athena always seems like genuinely excited to be talking about stuff, like she’s always excited we’re here listening to her and even excited at the end because she’ll see us next time, like damn. I like feeling appreciated like this!
Retirement really reignited their passion for eachother
This is so validating bc I remember liking the dynamic of pilot Cosmo and Wanda way more than the actual show.
“Often when you see pink and green together you’ll think cosmo and wan-“
My ass: SPLATOONSPLATOONSPLATOON SQUIDSQUIDSQUID
Can I just say that your voices for Cosmo and Wanda are actually like really fitting and I'd totally watch a radio drama of them sorting out their issues together? I'll settle for a Wattpad fic and I'm not even kidding.
I'm laughing at the idea that in The Fairly Oddparents universe, the dinosaurs only went extinct 2000 years ago.
i meaaaan the show WAS written by a hardcore christian so i can imagine a reason
It's weird that they made that blond girl to share the fairies with Timmy when Tudie legit had a horrible life
As a black man who’s researched as far as he could, The Fairly OddParents: A New Wish is the only GOOD black kids show now.
The really sad part is that there’s barely any good black kids shows running right now. I’m sure there’s some I haven’t heard of. But then you look at shows from the big three networks. Young Dylan sucks, That Girl Lay Lay sucks, even The Proud Family sucks now!
All three networks have been sabotaging practically every show that isn’t a spin-off, sequel series or reboot for like the past 5 years now. One of the victims unfortunately includes Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur. And who knows if that show will get a third season.
Raven’s Home, Craig of the Creek and the latter show’s spin-off, Jessica’s Big Little World are all over now. Iyanu: Child of Wonder which we’ve waited for almost two years was just announced to be delayed to 2025!
The best we can hope for is that A New Wish stays consistent with their quality moving forward. A modern Fairly OddParents show. Who’d have thunk?
It sucks about the lack of good black TV shows now, but I'm hoping A New Wish can bring something awesome to the table! The character designs are pretty cute too 😁💞
There's this show called moon girl and devil dinosaur that I watched while babysitting one time. It was the one episode about her learning to love her hair and the little black girls I was babysitting seems to like and resonate with it and overall love the show. She's also based on a pretty cool marvel comic character so double win
none of those shows suck tho maybe ur just a negative person inherently but each of those shows have their own unique endearing charm and theres a reason they have all done very well
theyre probably just misunderstood and u judged them after an episode without actually watching those shows in their entirety and giving them a fair chance
raven's home isnt over its also getting a spin off
sydney to the max was also a black show well half black show with good messages
I’ve watched several episodes of That Girl Lay Lay, including the crossover between all of the sitcoms that were airing at the time including the actually decent shows, Side Hustle and Warped!, and I didn’t laugh once, Lay Lay sucks at acting and the scripts are so predictable that it makes you think they worked for Tyler Perry! Oh wait!
The Proud Family Louder and Prouder has some decent aspects at times but it feels more bitter and mean-spirited even compared to the original’s bad episodes.
And I’ve heard from a couple TH-camrs that Young Dylan has been improving. Not necessarily good, especially good enough to be the only Nick show from the last few years to receive four seasons, but improving at least.
Moral of the story, cutting toxic people out of your life can make you see who really cares about you
Who knew fairies had such a crazy dynamic
The anniversaries are "themed" because wedding anniversaries have themes for what kind of gift to give.
Not everybody does it, its on the older side.
HELP the butch hartman jumpscare
Athena said "1998" without saying "when I was born" WHO ARE YOU
HAHAHAHA I literally had a take where I said that and I was like shut up they know and recorded it again cant believe you caught that 🤣
Congrats on 200K! It’s great to see how far your channel has come since your Wordgirl video. Here’s to another 200K down the line!!! 🎉
Thank you so so much for all your support!!! 🥹 200k feels UNREAL
Poor Cosmo and Wanda, I wish green and pink where real colors :(
Is quietly waiting for Athena to do “Little Einsteins” Lore…
Ooh, that's actually not a bad idea!
Yk what, I’m gonna say it. They should have kept the dynamic Cosmo and Wanda had in the Oh Yeah cartoon shorts. I loved the dynamic and their characterizations. Not that I fully hate the new ones, but still I just want that dynamic with them.
9:10 okay Amanda, I was ready to sit down and watch a video of Cosmo and Wanda's marriage and how it's gradually regressed to blatant stereotypes until a New Wish, what I was NOT expecting to hear was emotional incest
I like how the relationship from the pilot to the main show went from simple to so chaotic, funny and wholesome.
In terms of them in the 70s I didn’t interpret it as jealousy I interpreted it at her being upset that their relationship isn’t what it used to be
Dunno if you’ve mentioned it but at least for me, the biggest difference between the shorts and show is that in the Oh Yeah shorts, Timmy was originally voiced by Mary Kay Bergman, but was replaced and redubbed by Tara Strong following Bergman’s passing. Tbh, I prefer Bergman’s take on Timmy over Tara’s.
Same here. Mary Kay Bergman could pass for sounding like a boy in those shorts.
They should’ve done a Toy Story 2 and preserved Bergman’s recordings (in that film her yodelling and the woody’s roundup show) and just use the new VA for the new stuff
You got your wish
Maybe Mama Cosma always hovers and "over-protective" towards Cosmo could be that she doesn't see her other son, Schnozmo (as often as Cosmo) and possibly her husband left her and/or died after he was turned into a fly by Cosmo as a baby (when got his first wand)
I love that the new series really bought back that these two absolutely love one another. Hazel is absolutely adorable with them and you know....Not being chained to Timmy for more then FIFTY YEARS, and later as a grown manchild probably hurt their relationship...
The Fairly Oddparents rocks! I'm so happy that Cosmo and Wanda are back. Congrats on getting 200K

@@AthenaPOfficial NP. Keep up the great work! 👍🏾
I like to imagine Timmy stressed Cosmo and Wanda out so much it ruined their marriage
As someone currently in my Danny Phantom brainrot (that has similar boomer humor issues among other things), being reminded of how Cosmo and Wanda's relationship was and how fop was in general...man. Id love to see more fictional relationship deep dives as part of the mini/micro lore stuff
I'm still in my DP phase 😖
Cosmo’s mom: the OG boymom
Cosmo in these shorts is actually so great though- like a himbo we really did need in the real show- since the director who took control of the show later on clearly shows his bad writing lol
How could you forget episode "cosmonopoly" . An entire episode is devoted to their dating-level relationship
Most chaotic marriage couple , no one can tell me otherwise 😃
I really liked finding the oh yeah cartoons and seeing how much Cosmo and Wanda enjoyed each other's company. They even had an out for jokes where the blame could be put on Cosmo's wand rather than his brain or lack thereof. After watching some episodes and clips again, you can tell that the writers centered in on the "haha get it. It's funny cause marriage is terrible" jokes especially on Cosmo's end and it's just not funny especially when you do it as many times as there are years in their marriage. I like that they are just making them love eachother again since not only is it cute but it also has its own jokes and writing to it that doesn't make me theorize that fairies are eternally bound to whoever they first marry (which....I just cooked that one up but honestly I wouldn't be surprised if that was a rule). Wanda being more carefree and Cosmo being able to reason at least somewhat is also a plus.
Also, gotta say, loved that little back and forth you did of them discussing where they went wrong. Not only were the impressions funny but it also felt like a real instance of them growing apart due to different circumstances and trying to understand eachother so that they can mend it because they really do love one another. It also didn't end on a bad running gag so that was nice.
The only rational explanation I can think for them having to share fairies because of a “fairy shortage” is that while that’s the technical reason, since Fairies can’t die, the real reason is probably because there are TOO MANY HUMANS and they can’t keep up with how many people there are to give fairies to
athena p posting a fairly oddparents video on the height of my hyperfixation lets goooo
Happened to me with tinker bell chile
In Cosmo's defence,he is portrayed as a mama's boy. He's very easily influenced. So it's not a shock his mum could convince him to be okay with the situation. Plus,cookies! Who doesn't like cookies?
does being a “mama’s boy” also cause you to immediately romantically interact with other women while being married
@@strawberryjam7902 If he's influenced into doing it,I'd imagine so.
@@satsujin-shathewitchkingof6185 I feel like that’s not something you can be “influenced” to do, parents don’t make you emotionally cheat
@@strawberryjam7902 He was being cookies! Probably being told "it's okay,it's good,you're doing nothing wrong". We only see him after he's been there a while,maybe be was reluctant at first and broke down over time? Who's to say.
@@satsujin-shathewitchkingof6185 looks like a lot of assumptions have to be made for that to be true 😭
Off topic but loving the heart shaped hair doo
Fun fact: In the brazilian dub, cosmo is dubbed by Guilherme Briggs, who is one of the most well know and acclaimed voice actors here in Brazil. He's also well know for dubbing Optimus prime, King julien, him (the powerpuff girls), Jack (Samurai jack), Buzz lightyear, Superman, freakzoid and many, and I mean *many* other characters.
should have kept the concept of Wanda being booksmart and Cosmo being streetsmart. I liked their dynamic better in the earlier episodes before the change.
We need a total drama lore it would be so interesting like the creatures the curses and more (ALSO I LOVE YOUR LOOKS AND YOUR VIDEOS)
19:18 SO THAT'S WHY KIDS WITH TRAUMA CAN NEVER SEEM TO REMEMBER THEIR CHILDHOODS
I love how they made them in a new wish, they act like an old married couple / two halves of a whole idiot (because they are ❤😊)
“Using the word shrill is crazy when your voice is three octaves higher. EFF YOU COSMO”
Good ig
IT’S THE ONE WE’VE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR!
34 MINUTES AND ABOUT COSMO AND WANDAS RELATIONSHIP OML I LOVE YOU
34:02 I didn’t know that there was a new fairly odd parents- but I a new wish seems like a great show- like Cosmo and Wanda being happy together? What they really needed 😭💖
*I CAME AS SOON AS I SAW THE NOTIF*
Edit: Ok, now I need to watch the new show. When I first saw it being advertised, I didn't have high hopes, but after hearing your praise (and hearing that Cosmo and Wanda genuinely love eachother now), I *have* to check it out.
Been rewatching this show so the timing here is great. Anyway, even as a kid I was never fond of how the show kept putting Wanda down.
New Wish has definitely been refreshing from a characterization standpoint thus far which is great even if I think the writing as a whole can be awkward at bits.
What stuck out to me is some of the stuff they do with Hazel reminds me of what I believe to be missed potential with Chloe, mainly that her attempts at trying to be kind create unintended consequences. She also had moments where she wanted to behave more like an ordinary kid that I wish were explored more
Athena…
I WISH FOR A LORE LITE ON THE JIMMY TIMMY POWER HOUR (and probably the Nicktoons Unite series too)
Genuinely, that scene you did of Cosmo and Wanda talking about where and how their relationship went sour in-universe was beautiful and well thought! A lovely analysis and retrospective all around 💖💫💚
I like to think that butch did what he did with their relationship because he liked "punch and Judy" and thought it was funny.
My god that’s a good Cosmo impression. Don’t know when you’ll use it, but it could be a cool party trick
I wasn't going to watch New Wish because I thought it would be some cheap 3d reboot, but youve convinced me to try it out, even if the main character looks like the child version of one of my OC's who is also named Hazel 😅
Great video Athena! I love seeing you analyze and cover Wanda and Cosmo’s relationship! I always felt like in the OG show they were too mean to each other and now after years realizing how toxic they were for awhile. But thank goodness for “A New Wish”, I absolutely am loving it right now and feel like it did them justice in returning their relationship to healthy again(couples therapy saving magically marriages oh yeah!). Hope the new series keeps this up!
Note: Btw I just realized something creepier about Mama Cosma’s obession with her son. I remember in the fairly odd baby special they showed that baby Cosmo accidentally turned his dad(who bares a really identical resemblance to him) into a fly and was never seen again. Presumably either never turned back or maybe even died(maybe he got squished). So that just makes me if the possible death of her husband made her project that obsession onto her son who looks exactly like him 😰
I think every season has its own charm
Omg why did they do that to Cosmo's voice? His voice in the pilot was kinda hot and way better in my opinion. And I also don't like how the full show changed their personalities. God forbid any couples on TV have a healthy relationship. But glad the new show is fixing that
Good thing Bluey now exists
Also, Cosmo in the "Oh Yeah Cartoons" shorts isn't really that stupid, he blames his wand that it needs some fix (and hence where the "chocolate shake into chocolate shake" part in the show's intro came from.)
Its that Butch Hartman touch i tells ya
The twinkification of Cosmo goes crazy
Im not a huge fan of A New Wish but I love what they did with Cosmo and Wanda’s relationship they have very much improved it and they’re back to being their cute selves from the pilot days and parts of season 1! Their relationship in the pilots is how I write Harry and Elsie (The dog and cat on my profile pic) from Stanley they’re the inspiration for how I write their relationship so im glad they reverted back to them being an actually sweet healthy couple again in A New Wish its so wholesome!
Nice vid! Can i do a very nice recommendation for your lore series? The Storybots series. I think it'll be super chaotic for you, and I think it'll be a PERFECT addition to your very silly lore series.
