I disagree with 2D animation being scarier than puppets. 2D characters are expressive and look alive, while these puppets look like barely-living corpses.
@@vinnythewebsurfer I find the Gelflings look a lot creepier than the Skeksis, since the Gelflings look more human and fall into the uncanny valley despite being the "good" race.
I remember when the first short aired unannounced during a rerun of The Amanda Show. On the old Nick dot com message boards' "ask a moderator" section, some kid asked what that even was that aired, with a description of what was in the short. The moderator redacted the kid's description with an explanation that it was too disturbing for the message boards, and the mod answered that he/she didn't know anything about it. I remember thinking it was funny that this Nickelodeon show was too disturbing for text discussion at Nick dot com.
*_I actually forgot all about Mr. Meaty. I barely remember anything about the show but I think this show is a basically Supernatural taking place at McDonald's. The intro scares me._*
Andrew Garfield I agree, while Mr. Meaty was disgusting, I at least got a few chuckles from it whereas I did not laugh one bit while watching S&C, FB&CC or Breadwinners
You know what I find kinda weird? The characters are called Josh & Parker, meanwhile at the same time we also have a show about a Drake Parker, and a Josh Nichols... Knowing Nick I'm half inclined to believe they thought using those names would somehow make the show more successful
Also in Mr meaty Josh is the "cool one" that's always getting dates with girls. and Parker is the chubby nerd who thinks things he likes are cool while Josh thinks they're lame.
Honestly, seeing clips from the show in this video did crack a smile on my face a few times. (Especially the robot episode clips.) From what I remember about this show, i’m pretty sure the writing process was “come up with a funny premise” then “let’s see what we can do with this”.
I was actually shocked that there was so much hate for this show back then, 8 year old me always watched it when it was ever on. For some reason, I actually remember a lot from this show. Parker turning into a girl, Josh becoming a muscular man, the infamous tapeworm episode and the vampire hiding in the freezer. IDK why I never thought it was gross or creepy when I was a kid. Maybe that's because I watched a lot of late Adult Swim shows on the weekends at the time. Mr. Meaty isn't too far away from being an Adult Swim show if you ask me.
Mr. Meaty was my brother and I favorite "Nicktoon" when we were kids together, honestly the series still never fails to make me laugh with its insane scenarios or off-color, out-there humor. But I've always felt that Mr. Meaty would have been better suited on Cartoon Network Adult Swim block due to its contents and the way that the show is made also put together as this like mature / older teenager oriented puppet show. I still really love this crazy off-brand show even if others find it weird or creepy, scary and dumb; this nicktoon will always hold a special place within my childhood.
Puppetry is the art of imbuing the illusion of life-like qualities into inanimate objects. You know, literally anim-ation. Puppetry is animation, just based on the semantic meaning and etymology of the word animation.

@@kieranstark7213 It has to do with having the rights to the show and all that other legal stuff. I just came to a comment that’s over a year old to tell everyone that disliking people of a certain nationality isn’t racist. It’s called Xenophobia.
My bad... Although I’m sure that either way, Nickelodeon is racist because they’re “ALL AMERICAN, PART EUROPEAN!!!!!”. Then again, as the current saying goes, “American history is nothing to be proud of”, because even though it always had a lot of white supremacy and misogyny (re: Nickelodeon), it is one of the countries in the world that has Coronavirus the most (like Italy) and police murdering innocent black people like George Floyd no matter what.
Wait wait wait wait, WAIT! You don't think Avatar: The Last Airbender aged well??? I mean, respect either way. You be you. I just have to ask though...
This show is definitely underrated and overhated. I remember watching this as a kid and I thought the creepiness made it cool. And that theme song is definitely legendary.
I like this show It's honestly pretty stupid and pointless, but I kind of like that In some ways it's almost like a younger Aqua Teen, in that the appeal is the absolute nonsense
To me, its one of these shows you watch to relax. Like you sayd, its stupid and pointless. So you hit the off button on your brain and laugh at the dumb stuff untill you are recharged :)
read the sentence more carefully. "really hard" is the operative phrase here. yes, being grossed out by puppets is difficult, but by no means is it impossible.
We've reached the point where I keep getting surprised at where things are in the lineup because its the part where I was seeing these shows when they came out and not just too young to understand anything about them.
No, puppetry is not animation. It is not giving off the illusion of movement, it actually is moving. If puppetry were animation, then every inanimate object that has ever been moved while a camera was filming is also animation.
I remember an episode from this show that involved one of the characters eating a tape worm! Probably the strangest thing I ever saw and never have seen since
Well, because Mr. Enter's videos either keep getting blocked or removed or whatever, it's hard enough keeping the ranking list in order of what I think he feels about each show. So, eh, here's just what I think the new ranking is: 1. Hey Arnold 2. KaBLaM 3. My Life As A Teenage Robot 4. Invader Zim 5. The Fairly OddParents 6. Jimmy Neutron 7. SpongeBob SquarePants 8. Aaahh! Real Monsters 9. Rocko's Modern Life 10. Danny Phantom 11. Ren & Stimpy 12. The Angry Beavers 13. Rugrats 14. The Wild Thornberrys 15. ChalkZone 16. Action League Now 17. Mr. Meaty 18. As Told By Ginger 19. Doug 20. Rocket Power 21. All Grown Up 22. CatDog
When I was nine I started watching it. I really liked how the show can make the puppets look "functional" without you noticing, like seeing the strings and stuff. I can get why some people hated it because it freaked or grossed them out but I didn't think it was that bad. Not the worst show but an okay show if you don't get freaked out on the puppets. That's how I remembers the show, just as "okay," but agree it didn't need to go that long.
I never outright hated this show, but it did scare the ever-living crud out of me as a child. There were some scenes that I couldn't even be in the room to watch, like that scene where the guys record Parker to see the takewarm. It just freaked me our so much and the music WASN'T helping. And yet I was always excited to watch it because it did have some very interesting moments, like that robot episode. I think I used to try to get up really early on weekends in order to watch the show, just like how I used to with Rugrats (Because Nicktoons used to air Rugrars at 6 am on weekends).
Thanks to nicktoons, I did catch episodes of this show. The most memorable one was the one with the robot, CHIP, and skynet basically happened in the restaurant. I liked that episode, enough to quote it in front of a friend, just to be silly. (Another kid actually knew what I was quoting). But it probably wouldn't be as good if I watched it today.
Taking the Mr. Meaty out of Mr. Meaty would be like if there was a 3rd season of Courage the Cowardly Dog but they took out Courage and just focused on Muriel and Eustace.
I actually really liked this show as a kid, and even as an adult I still find it rather funny. Plus, hearing a joke about it on TheRussianBadger about twitch rivals pretty much sums up the show in a sense, and that it was actually also pretty damn terrifying.
I dont care if the shows you review are cartoons or not. I just like watching the reviews. Hell, id actually really enjoy seeing your take on Ned's Declassified
Mr Meaty DID have creepy moments like the vampire and or Parker getting turned into a cyborg but it WASN'T the worst thing or traumatizing. Its honestly like enter said. It's like a slowed down regular show & more taimed then other real creepy nicktoons. I was able to sit through an entire episode if it was on as a kid. And looking back it's just still an ok but honestly memorable show. It is sadly overhated.
At long last a Mr.Enter video, particularly this one, gave me a nightmare. Not related to the video, I don't remember it but... Won't be revisiting this video before bed anymore.
Funny story: JUST YESTERDAY I was watching SuperMega's video of them playing a Mr. Meaty game, and I realized I remember this show but knew nothing about it. And with the videos you've been releasing where ya review whole shows from Nick, I was hoping you'd talk about it. And lo and behold, ya upload this today. Thanks, Enter.
I remember this show when I was 12 and I enjoyed every episode. Bizarre and weird and yet somehow it actually works. Ok I have yet to watch the 2nd season but the 1st season that I still remember.
I only saw small moments of this series and it didn't really do much for me, including the puppets. After watching the clips in your review though, I'm actually more ambivalent towards the puppets' designs. Maybe it's because I've also seen plenty of things that looked more disgusting than this show. As for the whole 'Puppets are(n't) animation' debate, I'd lean them more towards live-action. While yes, puppetry can be considered animation to some extent for manipulating abstract objects, it's still something that can appear on screen through a rolling camera, without the aid of special effects. Not to mention that puppets can actually appear on stage, through a small play set, or even on your own hand, making it more of real-world entity. Cases like stop-motion and CGI are different since those involve moving an object from another layer, thus separating them from anything filmed in live-action.
I vaguely remember this show in the archives of my childhood. The two episodes I remember the most are the tape worm episode, obviously, and the episode where Parker and Josh travel to the future where apes rule the planet scared me as a kid.
Animation involves creating the illusion of movement with inanimate objects. By that definition, I would say that puppetry could seen as be a form of animation.
So we had Drake Parker and Josh Nichols, and Parker and Josh…
Imagine a Drake and Josh continuation like Mr. Meaty...

Lazytown is an example of how to do a puppet show properly

Never really watched this one too much which is weird as I find the art of puppetry charming. I blame scheduling on me missing out on it.
Funny story: JUST YESTERDAY I was watching SuperMega's video of them playing a Mr. Meaty game, and I realized I remember this show but knew nothing about it. And with the videos you've been releasing where ya review whole shows from Nick, I was hoping you'd talk about it. And lo and behold, ya upload this today. Thanks, Enter.
So up next is the legendary one can’t wait
I remember this show when I was 12 and I enjoyed every episode. Bizarre and weird and yet somehow it actually works. Ok I have yet to watch the 2nd season but the 1st season that I still remember.
Just admit enter you like this show!! And there is nothing wrong with that!!
It's official; Mr Enter snapped
@7:51-.-What is the name of this song? I’m having a hard time finding it on TH-cam.
Huh , now that's a viewpoint I didnt expect for this review.
I only saw small moments of this series and it didn't really do much for me, including the puppets. After watching the clips in your review though, I'm actually more ambivalent towards the puppets' designs. Maybe it's because I've also seen plenty of things that looked more disgusting than this show.
As for the whole 'Puppets are(n't) animation' debate, I'd lean them more towards live-action. While yes, puppetry can be considered animation to some extent for manipulating abstract objects, it's still something that can appear on screen through a rolling camera, without the aid of special effects. Not to mention that puppets can actually appear on stage, through a small play set, or even on your own hand, making it more of real-world entity. Cases like stop-motion and CGI are different since those involve moving an object from another layer, thus separating them from anything filmed in live-action.
Wasn’t he supposed to do the X’s
EERIE ERIC Oh, that’s right. I thought this seemed off.
Exactly.
i saw a couple comments saying enter said on his twitter that the next few vids are gonna be out of order
EERIE ERIC that’s what I thought
zachary solano Did he say in one of his videos recently about how he hated how the shows was showed out of order
Animated or not we're just here for your dulcet tones
I vaguely remember this show in the archives of my childhood. The two episodes I remember the most are the tape worm episode, obviously, and the episode where Parker and Josh travel to the future where apes rule the planet scared me as a kid.
The only episode of this I remember is the tapeworm episode
And yes. That episode disturbed me.
Animation involves creating the illusion of movement with inanimate objects. By that definition, I would say that puppetry could seen as be a form of animation.
Can’t believe this show exists
It's not that bad bro it just looks like it it's not good but it's not bad

I wasn't creeped out by this as a kid, nor was I creeped out by stuff like The Nightmare Before Christmas, Coraline, or Pinocchio.
The theme song rules!
