@@michaelpalmieri7335 The second segment of episode 6 of *Super Friends: The Legendary Super Powers Show* (sometimes referred to as season 8) is called *Uncle Mxyzptlk,* and in it, Clark encounters some Red Kryptonite which turns him into a 6-year old kid.

MIX-YES-SPIT-LICK. Screw any other pronunciation, that's the one that makes the most sense. The hell were they thinking with Mix-yus-plick on Super-Friends?!
No its not correct. It was the only one to be completely wrong. Action Comics Annual #10 (2007), "Superman's Top 10 Most Wanted" describes Mister Mxyzptlk and provides the pronunciation as Mix-yez-pittle-ik, exactly like the 1967 animated series.
@@Superlad945 If we really wanted to get into it, according to his creators, Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, his name was originally spelled Mister Mxyztplk, originally pronounced mux-ITZ-pulk. But in the 1960s his name officially became Mxyzptlk (after a misspelling), and has been said MIKS-yez-PIT-əl-ik or MIK-sil-plik ever since. So between those two pronunciations, totally interchangeable, otherwise incorrect.
I think they wanted to make up for all that "Raysh Al-Ghul" business. granted, nobody has pronounced that one properly yet. Because it requires you to shut your throat right before the S, which is something you just can't expect actors to do and still speak naturally.
My dad always pronounced it “Mixelplik”, and so that’s the way I said it for years. Later I figured out how to really say it and suddenly I never understood dad’s pronunciation. Now I know that it was Super Friends
There was a Batman/Superman comic book story from the 1950s or '60s in which Mxyzptlk meets Batmite. The two of them get into an argument over who the better trickster is, and they start playing cruel pranks on people and on each other in an extreme form of one-upsmanship. Just for the record, I never read the original story, but I saw a reprint of it in a book called "Batman: From the '30s To The '70s." (It came out in the early 1970s.)
For the one from Superboy 1989, did they just get some homeless guy off the street and pay him $20 to read some lines? Because that was so hilariously bad.
Actually I remember him from some shows, notably from an episode of the original Star Trek, the episode Miri, where all the adults get a disease that kills them. He plays the lead boy. His name is Michael J. Pollard, and playing in Bonnie and Clyde, Scrooged and various other movies.
No, he's an actor who has been in several things, including the movie Bonnie and Clyde. But you are right about it being bad. He just does not seem to care about the part at all. Which is pretty much how I felt about that show when it came out.
His name is Michael J. Pollard. He's one of our finest actors. Michael J. Fox took his name in honor. Took his affliction too. Next time leave the multiple sclerosis take the cannoli.
My first exposure to Mxyzptlk was from 'Superfriends', and while I've also seen the Filmation 'Superman' series before, I've NEVER seen his appearance there. Interestingly enough, the Filmation series pronounces his name correctly, and I wouldn't hear the correct pronunciation of his name until 'Superman: TAS'. (Mix YES Spit Lick) And while I've never watched the 'Superboy' series regularly, I will say that they had the most comic accurate version of him put to live action even if he wasn't that short.
My first exposure to the character was also Superfriends, where his similar voice performance to Toyman caused me to conflate the two characters in my memory. And while my main Superman series growing up was Lois and Clark, I _didn't_ know he was in it.
HOLY SHIT! I just noticed something, which somehow evaded me for years. The Mxyzptlk comic from Superman: TAS was written by Siegel and Shuster, THE LAST NAMES OF SUPERMAN'S ORIGINAL CREATORS! That's a heck of a neat reference right there. Also, Mxy will always have Iago's voice in my head :)
@@jnnxI don't know, they had to fight in court to get any sort of royalties from DC concerning Superman, they've probably earned the right to be low hanging fruit.
My favorite pronunciation is the 1960s Superman cartoon, since it barely sounds like a word, which I'm pretty sure is the intention (because it has no vowels, just a string of consonants that don't go together and one semi-vowel). Ms Gsptlsnz from the Animated Series has an even less-pronounceable name, since it lacks even the semi-vowel.

Apologies for the additional gripe, but I finally got the guts to watch the Smallville scene in full: How could they have gotten it wrong??? Mxylptlk? When was it EVER written that way?
I love how I'm sitting here through the first two like "man those old cartoons were cornball and lame" and then I see the Superboy series and it somehow blows them out of the water for awfulness.
He also showed up on the current superman cartoons that Adult Swim on the Cartoon Network did every Thursday at Midnight this year in 2023 like a few weeks ago.
I always just called him "mic-six-a-plix" cause it was easy to say and I didn't want to spend too much time thinking about it when I read it in the comics
Woah. I forgot he was in Lois & Clark. Though it's been years since I watched it. I like the idea that this is all the same entity intersecting all these different realities.
"Uncle Myxzptlk" was funny. Samurai turns Superbaby's ice cream into whipped cream so that a train can pass through it unharmed, and we find out that Superbaby hates whipped cream.
I always thought is was pronounced Miks-ill-plik. What's up with the mix-yes-spit-lik? Gathering from the video I guess there's different pronunciations.

Man I loved Lois & Clark. Can't bear to watch that antivax trumper though.
I don't even bother learning to pronounce his name I just call him Mixel Pixel.
According to Bob Rozakis (DC's Answer Man from the 70'), it's Mix-yes-pit-lick.
There was a musician, or techno producer named Mr Mixel Pixel? but I can't find that now? only this character.
I like to think he changes it every time on purpose, but keeps forgetting it changes how it's said backwards.
