What's great about the Captain is that we know nothing of his backstory. He solely existed to be a Scooby-Doo villain that got in over his head when he met the Venture's. The fact that his whole identity is being a pirate captain for no apparent reason just adds to the absurdity of it. Also the fact that he was stupid enough to get stranded at sea for so long, but is also capable of running Ventech is pretty amusing.
Eh, from what we can tell - they wanted to stay there. They liked it. They decided to use the boat they were hitting (which happened to be the Venture's boat) that night to leave.
I love how essentially a random Scooby-Doo villain from season 1 is one of the mainstay characters of this show. He's so committed to the bit and such a nice dude, I love how this show does stuff like that
I lowkey love the fact that the Captain was basically JJ's sidekick. He's Jonas' version of Samson and in a weird mirror mirror thing JJ is the competent Doc and the Captain is the Doc version of Samson.
JJ is also like the person Jonas Sr made every calculated evil manipulative effort to appear to be to the world at large. Purely by accident he turned out to be the only good altruistic hero in the entire show.
15:30 : "that's a real gun, you idiot" One of my fave side arcs from this show is the Captain's descent into the world of large animal tranquilizer-dependence, and all the callbacks to drug movies from it. The Trainspotting bit slayed me
I choose to believe he was a former businessman who convinced most of his former graduating classmates to be pirates with him when the economy got bad. 10:50 He flat out gives us his inspiration behind the pirate idea. He watched a lot of Scooby doo as a kid and after watching pirates of the Caribbean became a real Scooby doo pirate
It gets funnier when you realise the crash test dummies have a song called “At My Funeral” meaning it probably said something like “I want you to play Crash Test Dummies, At My Funeral” in JJ’s will and the captain horrendously misinterpreted it
6:25, I never fucking noticed that helper comes in and starts drumming as a throwback to dermot and hank teaching him, this show is amazingly good at fitting in little details you only notice later.
It’s essentially the episode I show friends when convincing them to get into the series since it’s one of the best season one episodes that closely aligns to the Johnny quest parody setup I tell them it is. the only prior knowledge they need to know is who Orpheus is and I can give a quick explanation.
Overall he has very good Arc, I find it really admirable he sticks with Ventech despite Rusty being an asshat and firing everyone, it shows how loyal he was to JJ that hes willing to be loyal even after JJ is gone. Also Muffin, who is your favourite character?
JJ probably had a clause that barred Rusty from firing him. He's been with him from the get-go and they had a pretty good relationship(though JJ wasn't the best to him at times)
That's pretty boss of him to name his pirate ship after a "possibly" fictional crush. Don't know if it is or not, and he was probably embarrassed to reveal it.
18:50 am i the only one who kept seeing Foxy over this? lmao😆ironically this soo would be my fnaf oc (foxy the joker aka my avatar) in a nutshell to be honest if she became addicted to tranquilizer darts like Pirate Captain😆
I've been attacked with syringes hundreds of times my adopted family used to buy equine tranquilizers from the ferrier shops and they darted me with carcorics and roofy pills and sexually assaulted me hundreds of times and made me have over 100 kids
considering the parody of a fake ghost from scooby doo showed up to be beat up by brock the first time the pirate appeared in show that makes sense lol
the problem with this show, like the writing and visual style is great, but the longer it went on the more the side characters are part of the regular cast and they're all just the same two guys talking. Ultimately getting to the point where it's 2 guys representing 6-12 guys in the same scenes.
yeah, good point. but their interview on chapo trap house was pretty funny, in that they come off as just two random guys who love doing weird banter at each other in wacky voices.
@@darthlegit I think actually I thought the finale was perfect and they handled that really well where they were only 2 people in any given subplot in any one scene, I was paying attention and they wrote around it very cleverly. Except for things like YAAY BRICKFROG but that was the appropriate place for it. very good and a fitting outtro to the entire series. all the other actor voiced characters were present the entire time. etc etc.

He might've been been struck in the Sargasm for 10 years surviving on shipments of pantyhoses... But he was Free.
Also its pretty funny watching him turn into a functional narcoric addict.
I love how essentially a random Scooby-Doo villain from season 1 is one of the mainstay characters of this show. He's so committed to the bit and such a nice dude, I love how this show does stuff like that
its a shame he's a drug addict
And he has a whole character arc. It's nuts.
Yeah and due to that beginning he was one of the more positive attactions at Rusty's daycare

"Jeeze you're real!"
"Used ta be.."
That exchange always cracks me up

Went from a freeloading creepy boat captain, butler, drug addict, and towards a professional agent. So inspiring.

Crash test dummies at Jr's funeral is still one of the funniest fucking things I've ever heard.

@@jeffmoo9235 No, this was entirely intentional.
"Get off that man before he kills all of you" has to be my favorite quote in the series.
The best advice you can give to someone trying to wrestle down Brock Samson
6:25, I never fucking noticed that helper comes in and starts drumming as a throwback to dermot and hank teaching him, this show is amazingly good at fitting in little details you only notice later.
“Ghosts of the Sargasso” Will always be one of my favorite episodes
That was the first episode of the show I ever saw, convinced me to get into the whole series
Still tastes like hot Sargasso, no matter how you cook it!
You’re not telling me ya didn’t hear that
It’s essentially the episode I show friends when convincing them to get into the series since it’s one of the best season one episodes that closely aligns to the Johnny quest parody setup I tell them it is. the only prior knowledge they need to know is who Orpheus is and I can give a quick explanation.
I love that the convo on the ship is basically a highlight for Captain, Shore Leave, and Hunter all at the same time
Helper’s motionless drumming always cracks me up
My favorite part is when they find him at the zoo tranquilized saying "get on your knees and give the pirate what he needs" lol 😂
Holy crap, that almost rhymes 😂
The fact he knows not to pull the glass out
A lot probably happened over the ten years trapped in the Sargasso
I like to think the captain became the pirate in the painting in the Spongebob Intro
Sir Reginald von Pirate Guy went back to the sargasso
Our favourite TH-camr is back with our favourite characters
The fact his video keeps popping up in my recommendations and I’m still subscribed to him makes me want to rewatch all 81 episodes & 4 Specials
Overall he has very good Arc, I find it really admirable he sticks with Ventech despite Rusty being an asshat and firing everyone, it shows how loyal he was to JJ that hes willing to be loyal even after JJ is gone.
Also Muffin, who is your favourite character?
Asshat and dumbass par excellence
Lol he just needs to stay off the Tranq.
JJ probably had a clause that barred Rusty from firing him. He's been with him from the get-go and they had a pretty good relationship(though JJ wasn't the best to him at times)
You know what they say about the captains and the ships
HIT ME AGAIN! THE DART MONKEY'S STILL ON ME BACK AND HE'S SCREAMING BLOODY MURDER!!!
Why you’re fkin holding out on me!!!
22:13 that Gary animation was crisp.
That clip had all the satisfaction of a 360no scope in overwatch

Funny Monarch quote btw
Omg I just noticed Sally Impossible on the funeral for Jonas Junior. So much attention to the plot here.
The singing "mmmmm mmmmm mmmmmm" at the funeral is one of the best moments
In the movie that’s coming they got to give him a real name and a tiny bit of a backstory. Even Mrs. the Monarch has a name it’s Sheila.
That's Dr. Mrs. The Monarch to you
Does he even have a name, or is it just Pirate Captain?
Yes
Sir regenald lol
I love how this show is both ludicrously wacky and grounded in harsh adult realities at the same time.
I've said this before, I'm glad there's a king gizzard fan and a venture bros fan
@@Ton_____ yesssirrrr
The Monarch dressed up as the Statue of Liberty looks a lot like the Postal Dude and it's freaking me out
"Would you please sign my petition?"
😂 he looks a little like him in those glasses. missing a shovel
He's got the constitution for it, lol
The degrassi reference is so specific and hilarious.
Yes my favorite junkie
"And whenever we lost a crew-member, we'd send him off proper- with an old Pirate Dirge..."
He may be a pirate, a true pirate follows this motow: Take what you can, give nothing back!🏴☠️🦜
But leave enough for your crew. The last thing you need is a group if scurvy-riddled murderers aiming their guns at you.
@@foxymetroid, I not be sure what ther' be meaning, but luckily for ye I be tras-dimensional pirate. 🏴☠️☠🦜
That's pretty boss of him to name his pirate ship after a "possibly" fictional crush. Don't know if it is or not, and he was probably embarrassed to reveal it.
13:07 Oh, and the fact that titanium unibody hovercraft are supremely expensive.
2:07 captins shoulder patch is drawn over his hair
Aye me m8y, Sea Cap'n rules the waves!
His love of tranquilizers is admirable 😂
They got mileage out this lad
It's techinally junkie Johnny Quest's fault for starting the whole tranq dart cycle. But he was out of his mind from that junkie stuff.
I like the small tibits of getting tranqued made him dependent on them rather than hating them.
You can definitely argue cap is batter off a actual pirate than with Junior
Or with Rusty for that matter.
He's so good I don't want a backstory
"I'm a good pirate! Good Pirate! Piiiiiraaaattteeee!" God damn he is a good character. Such a good arc.
From pirate, to head of security, to dart addict, to steve jobs?
Ook Ook does look little bit like the pirate captain if he didn't have an eye patch. But I understand how's that demeaning
Him humming the mmm mmm mmm Song was the best
Don’t know how I didn’t notice this till the venture bros movie came out but during this scene at 21:26 the monarch is almost identical to rusty
AND BRING ME A FUCKIN SANDWICH
God my sides

Introducing your friends to Sea of Thieves
“We grow our own pot & we legalize the gay marriage!”
From Portland, Oregon to Pirateland, Oregon
Never a dull moment with this ol’ salty sea dog, matey!

OMG I can't unsee that, he is like a gijinka of Foxy from Five Nights At Freddy's. 😂😂😂😂
"They call me the Pirate Captain"
16:13 I’M A GOOD PIRATE!!!! PIIIIIIIRAAAATEEE!
The Pirate Captain is my favorite character. I wish there could be a spinoff about the time when the pirates were stuck in the sargasso.
I am shocked they actually drew -Sue’s- Sally’s naked body and got away with it way back when this aired.
7:50 thought rain was pouring through my ceiling again, if you have headphones on.
One of, if not, my favorite characters of the show
5:02 is the absolute best
I love this dude
Me too he is hilarious 😆
Sure, give the masses personal flight belts. What could possibly go wrong?
Only one way to find out.
"Mmmmm Mmmmm Mmmmmm Mmmmmm, D'Arrraghhh Mmmmm Mmmm Mmmmm Mmmmmm"
I would join his crew looks like fun lol
20:20 what this have to do with pirate tf
Ooppps
5:04 best quote ever
21:45 Devil! 21 has had to shoot him more than once and each time it took him by surprise.
Is there a reason you just Darted my man hHahahahahahahahahah
got my fix
Something silly I noticed the pirate captain goes from having a receeding hairline to a head full of hair as the seasons go on
What if that was a side effect from taking copious amounts of tranquilizers?
17:56 on a continuous loop. 😂🤣
I think his introduction in episode 7 is the best episode of the first season
"Yo ho mike!"
Yknow the guy really turned his life around.
16:03 I think this is the *only* time they call Johnny "Quest", every other time its Action Johnny
This is the episode where they realise they could get the copyright
@@muffindragons I have no idea why I thought this scene was later than it was, that was why I was so surprised by it, thanks for clearing that up
I've been attacked with syringes hundreds of times my adopted family used to buy equine tranquilizers from the ferrier shops and they darted me with carcorics and roofy pills and sexually assaulted me hundreds of times and made me have over 100 kids
Take
Your
Medicine
I like he wears his pirate hat while dressed like Steve Job’s
Put your pants on you're making people sick. Who hasn't heard that at least once
And that's why Voltron and Power Rangers never made sense(that and other things). The G-forces on the pirate captain alone.
Being sober for once would be nice if they'd let me I haven't drank in 4 years I'm avoiding being attacked by syringes again
I Missed The Episode With The "CrashTestDummies" Cover!

Sweet tranqalizer darht that's what. So get out! Yer always tryina bring me down! And bring me a fuckin sandwich!
Always will be my favorite. I wonder if he inspired the pirate guy from dogeball
7:00 why does he look like that, he looked nirnal i thought ciming out 👀😂
21:46 holy shit I'm dead xD
You don't want my problems
i always thought he was a parody of the pirate captain from OG Scooby Doo
considering the parody of a fake ghost from scooby doo showed up to be beat up by brock the first time the pirate appeared in show that makes sense lol
Shots fired gay down
We have different ideas of parenting it would seem
Lol this guy had the weirdest character arc.
He should be called captain addiction problem not Captain Jack sparrow.
great job.
why would you not start from the beginning and go from there? that way you can see his growth.
