The Replacements always had my attention based on the concept alone, so it was pretty exciting to dive back into a show I haven't seen in such a long time. So today let's take a look at The Replacements, see what it was, what happened to it, my opinions on the show and more!
Thanks so much to my friend Nerdstalgic for dropping by: / @nerdstalgic

Thanks so much for watching! Were you a fan of The Replacements?
Thanks for reminding me of how much I loved this show growing up! All of the characters were quirky and relatable.
Yes
Loved this show lol. CARter was the best.
YES!
The Replacement is the greatest Keanu Reeves film ever made in the history of ever.
I always got the impression that Dick and K had been married before the show started and replaced whatever caregiver Todd and Riley were in the custody of. That was at least how I rationalized it when I was 11.
Pretty sure they were as they mention how Dick met K while she was on mission and fell in love some time before the show.
Yeah i thought they were a married couple that wanted kids and flemco knew they wanted kids and boom, they got kids.
Yeah, plus I kinda doubt that they would ever ask for "A mom that is a super spy and a dad that is a daredevil!"
More likely than not they just asked for a cool and loving mom and a sweet fun dad. Most times I don't remember them asking for specifics at least.
It was more the "GIve us a trainer that really want to win!" or "This teacher doesn't like teaching! Can we have a teacher that cares about his subject!" etc.
So, I am guessing the uncle just found a couple that was nice, loving, wanted to adopt and had some uniqe jobs that the kids would find cool *shrug*
Yeah, they mention being married prior to adopting the kids a few times
@@bibbobella yeah at the time the show aired stunt doubles and super spies would be a thing teens find cool i sure did when i watched the show K allways struck me as like a tottaly spies type agent and Dick was just a dumbass XD
I used to watch this show a lot when it aired. You don’t see too many cartoons for kids about adopted families, I love it!
Sameee, I'm adopted and loved the positive representation rather than the usual "kid finds out they're adopted".
@@HorrorDiva01 And a sameee to you
i love when adoption is in media, its nice to see
I remember it coming on a lot on Disney Channel. I remember there being a lot of back to back episodes.
@@Blue-bf8lv When adoption is in media AND is not portrayed negatively, since there are a lot of cases of the adoptive parents just wanting to use the kids for some evil plot
This show was my jam back in the day! The expository theme tune was as catchy as heck, and I loved how consistent it could be. For example, after Todd insists that "George Stapler" was a president, the school stays as "George Stapler" for the rest of the series!
Same 🤣👏
The theme tune seems inspired by Oingo Boingo’s “Only A Lad”
One of the most slept on cartoon themes for sure
If you like continuity, watch Bojack Horseman. It’s amazing
Which but sadly not consistent in every instance.
I liked this show; it had some interesting points of view. For example, the episode where Riley replaces a teen idol with someone more average in the hopes that people will stop caring about trends. The replacement turns out to be... herself. And everyone imitates her, which she doesn't want. In the end, though, she realizes that imitating someone else is a valid form of self-expression. I came into the episode with that point of view already (I was already like 18 when it was airing), but I was surprised it went there.
That's really cool. A lot of shows I watched did episodes about trends, and they always had the same message: "Following trends will make you unhappy, so instead you should BE YOURSELF(tm)!" I've seen that plot so many times I'm actually shocked that any typical-looking kids' show had a different take on following trends.
Remind Disney of this so they can put it in the Encanto series.
Got a name for the ep? Seems interesting to give it a watch
"I need a replacement"
Flemco: "YOU"RE the replacement"
"WHAT?!?"
I don't understand that lesson.
A few things of note:
1. That connection you made to The Fairly Odd Parents is not surprising since the show's executive producer is Jack Thomas, who was the associate story editor for that series from seasons 2-5. Many voice actors from that show (mainly Grey DeLisle Griffin,Daran Norris, and Tara Strong) were also in this show.
2. I'm surprised you didn't mention how season 2 switched up the episode runtime. Season 1 was mostly episodes with 2 11 segments episodes with a few specials. Season 2 basically reversed this and had many episodes be 22 minutes with only a few 11 minute episodes sprinkled in.
3. Scott Peterson, the story editor for this series, would later be story editor for seasons 2-4 of Phineas And Ferb, story editor for Milo Murphy's Law, and showrunner for The Last Kids On Earth.
The show also had a sliiiight art shift in season 2, as well.
And all those shows and this show has the same formula repeating.
The second season was much better because of the longer episodes.
4. Synergy Animation did the animation for Season 2 in The Replacements who did other Disney show called: Phaines and Ferb and later Milo’s Murphy Law.
I’m glad Scott got to make more stuff after this show :)
This series has unlocked so many hidden gems I forgot about lol. If he hasn't he should do 6teen that show was 🔥
I loved 6teen. I wanna watch that again now lol.
6teen is amazing, loved watching it as a kid and feels funny watching it now that I’m past the age of 16.
Omg yes please I love 6teen
6teen lied to me about turning 16 lmao
Oh my gosh, I forgot about 6teen!!!!! Thank you! Lol
the ending of this show was so unbelievable! the guy Todd and Riley spoke on the phone was their real uncle the whole time! was not expecting that at all!
Holy cow I never saw the ending but that is amazing
@@gracekim25 I loved the way Jordan talked about it too near the end of his video.
I don't think they ever release the last one.
@@asteroidkatfacts1036 THey did. I watched it on disney channel a long time ago
@@gracekim25 me too 😦
Sadly for me, The Replacements is one of those Disney cartoons that i only have a few memories of but i still remember how good of a show it was!!!
I don't want to waste my time watching pathetic programs similar to teen sitcoms!!!!!!
@@gabriellitewski7988 ok buddy
it lasted for a season but at least it was able to tell the full story, unlike Teen Titans
I shouldn't watched the 2010s cartoons
I often feel I should've quited watching afterwards
I was a big fan of the show, I belive the designs and the artstyle are just so inviting most of the time, and very unique in some characters. Also I allways thought that the parents were toghether before they became replacements but that might not be canon.
There's pieces of dialogue that heavily implied that the couple were married way before they adopted Todd and Riley.
The design is incredible
i fould rhilly kinda hot even (i was like 14 at the time of watching tho)
One thing I like to note that this show did, was that they had the classic "brain swap" trope in one episode, but they did it better than 99.9% of the other times I've seen it. K and Dick swap minds, BUT they don't fall into the cliche of Dick speak with K's voice and vice versa. Instead, the voice actors tried to imitate each other's voice! So you had Kath Soucie doing her version of Dick (including a bad impression of K) and Daran Norris doing K's accent. A very much appreciated performance.
Justice League unlimited where Flash and Luthor switched minds is that .1%
@@Djrexda1
True. And the great line, "I have no idea who this is."
Learning that the author is a writer of children's books makes a lot of sense. I've found the show to have a good premise, but run the risk of having plot holes and contrivances as well as the risk of overstaying its welcome. Both of which are narrative downfalls I don't really see as much in children's books. That being said, it definitely could have been a whole lot worse, and the fact that the Replacements still managed to be pretty good exceeded my expectations.
This entire channel is a banger, been watching since the Patrick Show vid.
Hey thanks so much for the support and kind words! You’re channel is incredible!
Alpha Jay Show watches Jordan Fringe?? Now that's cool. A crossover would be over-the-top cool tho haha
Animation discussion multiverse
"What's their relationship." That I can tell you. They covered it in one episode simi vaguely. In short they was married before meeting the kids and both of them wanted to have kids but do to reasons not said they could not. (it was simi-implied she is barran giving the spy stuff and radiation but.) And the kids wanted parents. So he went "Hey prefect everybody wins."
Can i correct your gramatical mistakes please 😢
@@unslaadkrosis9435 If you wish to you can. It is a good way for me to learn.
semi vaguely*, they were married*, due to reasons*, semi implied*, barren*, given*, perfect*.
Thank you senpai I'm so relieved ahh
@@unslaadkrosis9435 ah yes semi always throws me off. like etc.
Which episode was that?
I haven't seen the final episode on tv when I was a kid, so I am very glad to hear that the story has come to a natural conclusion, and a good and heartwarming one at that.
But there was an episode called “injustice is blind”.
As someone who was adopted (I'm a "love child" (thats a child friendly version of the term) and my bio dad stayed with his pregnant wife, bio mom had a bad family home and already had one kid and saw how bad of a setting it was for them). This show as kid was amazing!!! It resonated with me.
I was the general age of the main characters/sibblings and it was the first time I recalled seeing the "found family" where in a way The Replacements adopted the kids. How the parents seemed to generally want kids and treated them as their own. Having this same experience with my parents the only ones I consider as my parents, it made this show memorable for me.
In Germany the Show "The Replacements" is named "Tauschrausch" which is translates into "Replacement Frenzy"
“You Dance Like A Cow”.
@@okjeffy6581 Lol 😂
Realizing that Dick was trying to flirt with another woman while he is married 🤦🏿♀️
The Replacements, one of those shows I never gave a fair chance to when it first came out. Now I’ve given it the time it deserves and yeah, it’s a pretty good watch.
The episode " Canadian Fakin" was great and had good writing. Unlike The Loud House's " Schooled " .
This show was so underrated. There weren't that many cartoons in the late 2000s I was interested in. This was one of the few I was during that time.
I always thought this show was just a result of me misremembering multiple different cartoons as one, but I guess it actually exists!
This show has a pretty catchy theme song, kinda like a company jingle or elevator music.
I agree!
I used to find it catchy, but it got annoying to me after a while.
One thing that I liked about the show, and I wish had been mentioned is the fact that some of the people that were replacements, stayed.
Such as the hair stylist; he continually stayed in the show and could be seen in the background interacting with others of the town. So there was some continuity that followed with the show as some people were permanent replacements.That always stuck with me about this cartoon.
Wait really?
Wow!
I sometimes wonder if Fairly Odd Parents kept certain wishes in effect what would happen.
Poof is one of the only instances of keeping a wish permanently.
I remember this show! In one episode they went to a international arcade and got “country sized” cotton candy. The kids got countries like Russia and Canada. I’ll always vividly remember the dad saying “Ah, I got the Principality of Monoco!!!”
Dick spent 145 bucks for a stuffed elephant only to threw it away after Riley revealed that they had one just like that at home
@@nguyenquyetthang1326 I forgot that part, hilarious!
Oh I remember that. And when the dad got scared with the tokens.
He is not frugal
To me that ending of the Replacements puts the rest of the series in a high plane since now you as audience member how the knowledge of why that technology is not available to just everybody. Also could you do a Wait...Remember episode on the kid superhero show from Disney in which kid thought he was an alien and he and his friends fight crime for a State Governor. Found the name thank god for Google, its called Teamo Supremo from 2002-04.
I've been trying to remember this show for the past seven years but the only thing I could ever remember is how the two main characters looked like and an obscure joke about swahili and I'm so glad you've talked about it thank you
BRO SAME
Bro same. For years I remember Riley looking like Daisy from Clang Invasion. And I remember Todd having brown hair. But I’m sure nobody here remembers Clang Invasion. Nor knows what it is. I completely forgot the name too. I used to think it was called “placement zam, bsum bsum zam”. I remembered the logo, thinking it looked like the Opel logo.
8:20 Hold up. I just realized something. Can we take a moment to appreciate just how much of a GENIUS Conrad is here? He set up the Replacements to help his niece and nephew while teaching them life lessons. MEANING this man had made sure to send them SPECIFIC Replacements so that events would play out the way they do each episode to teach those lessons! Talk about a mastermind here!!
Love the art style in this one. Line work, shapes, colors, it’s all so pleasant to look at!
I definitely remembered this show as a kid! I was probably around 11 when it aired, but I did wonder what happened to it. I definitely think it suffered from a very predictable, rinse-and-repeat style premise, but it was still worth a watch!
This was one of the biggest bait and switches back in the day. This was 2006, we were riding high off the premieres of American Dragon, Juniper Lee, Ben 10 and, of course, Avatar a year earlier, and Disney was like "you won't believe what this next show is" in June, 2006 and my brother, sister and I tuned in to find out what this mystery cartoon was. They hyped it up as their next big cartoon. Then... it was just a show about kids with a phone that can swap people.
Mind you, it's not a bad show, but it's not an action cartoon. It occupied the same space of hyperbolized reality as, say, Simpson's. No superheroes, no aliens, no magic, no swords, no robots. It was an eccentric personality of the week.
And that's not a bad thing, but don't advertise it and hype it up with mystery, especially with Kim Possible and Teen Titans ending.
I freaking loved this show. I felt bad as a kid yelling about how I wish this show was real so I could replace my family tho 🤦♀️😩
Edit: the only vague memory of this show was the episode where Riley has an epic violin battle and wins.
The only vague memory of this show that I had was that Todd and the black kid were crossdressing into girls.
I remember the carnival episode, Riley’s first dance, the fiddle concert, the episode when Riley and Tasumi were fighting, and the episode when they went to the pool
I only ever saw this show once or twice on TV back in the day, but as somebody who was adopted, seeing a show based on a premise I could relate to was really awesome
I watched a few episodes of the series. I liked it a lot.... And about time this was covered.
I watched about 3 or 6 episodes, and it was okay.
You know all things considered this show was good, I mean I was portably a little old for it when it come out in 2006 (I was 16) I watched some of it but I think I got out of it for some reason not really sure why.
The idea of it is great, kids hasn’t replacing some of the adult figures in their life because they want to have fun or have someone who is more in their line of thinking. I remember the characters being mostly likeable as they were going through struggles and just wanted some help from adults. The episodes probably followed a similar format to the Fairy Odd Parents where the main kid characters, Todd and Riley replaced someone in their lives with a near “better” person only to find out that the old person had a valid reason for doing things the way they did, I say probably because I don’t really remember that much of flow of how the episodes went.
The comedy was good, I think one of my favorites was when the traditional looking geeky character Shelton is revealed to be attractive if his glasses are removed, then Todd tries on his sister to see if it’s the same with her but NOPE she’s just a geek.
I also really liked (spoilers) the revel Conrad, the men who facilitates the replacements, is in fact Todd’s and Riley’s uncle, which just a nice idea and explains why he helped them so much
So yeah, while I didn’t watch it all the way from the first to the last episode or can say that I think of this show often I still think that its good.
Damn when the show aired i was 3y/o this was one of my fav shows , i always loved different everyone was snd how it showed tons of different perspectives where no one was 100% wrong or right
The replacements was so good tho
I really liked this show as a kid, or well, the first season. I remember as the show went along it felt like the Replacement part of it didn't really matter for the plot and I didn't like it as much.
I never saw the ending, and I probably would have been confused about the disguise thing because I thought they had normal calls, no video calls, so no need for that
The Replacements was ahead of its time. I love it.
This theme song gets stuck in my head all the time
Oh my god, hearing those Disney intermission ads for this show brought me back. I LOVE how you include them with the shows you cover! Amazing job as always!
It aired on Family in Canada
I always had this lingering thought that their replacement parents didn't really love their family and was just playing a part. Like I get anxious each episode if they would drop the act and say how they really feel.
Nah, it was alluded/mentioned (?) in an episode that they've been married wayyy before the kids.
I like to credit this show with introducing me to the line "Don't Judge Me." It's come in handy a few times.
Yeah!
I watch the whole first season of the show when I first got Disney+, don't know why the second season of the show isn't included on there.
Maybe they think the second season wasn’t good enough
The Replacements was teased leading up to that major crossover episode Disney Channel did "That's So Suite Life of Hannah Montana" which had kid-me thinking they were taking that one-off special into a whole tv show. Like a series of random Disney Channel characters showing up on other shows or teachers would be swapped (replaced). So I was surprised (and a little disappointed) to find out it was a new IP.
I’m honestly surprised this series never had a cross over episode. It would be so easy to replace someone with another character from another Disney show. Phenis and Ferb was still airing at the same time that could have been really fun
Ditto
I remember watching this show,and i still watch the show on Disney+. And is it just me or does every role of Kath Souice is always hot and attractive (exm. Lola Bunny,Dexter's Mom,Sally Acorn)? Also his dad is the same VA as Cosmo and Timmy's Dad from FOP,so in this series he's like Timmy's Dad but a daredevil stunt.
Me when I discovered the channel: "Wish there was a video on the Replacements."
Jordan now:
Criminally underrated show.. 2000s kids represent!!
i liked the episode where riley and todd got the family album, wheres were the picture of baby riley in loaded diaper❤
😂😂 you don’t know how many times I wanted them to replace my teachers in school
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
As much as I loved the show, I think it ended where it needed to. I have seen shows never get enough time and I have seen shows that go on for too long. Would more episodes be nice? Sure, especially since it stars an adopted pair of twins. I think that is a HUGELY under represented kids demographic. That being said, how it wrapped up and ended is what I wish most if not all shows strive for.
I loved this show as a kid, was always on as soon as I got home from school! I remember thinking the characters looked so weird in season 2 because they changed their noses and my sister thought I was going crazy
Yea it bothered me so it’s hard to watch season 2 it’s surprising they didn’t mention it in this video
I thought the designs were pretty good, and it was more high quality.
I was always under the impression that the parents were already a couple prior to becoming the kids' parents. They had a good chemistry that implied they were actually in love.
Something that I never thought until this video. (probably because I was 9 when it came out) with every replacement they made, there was a reason to appreciate the growth from dealing with the original person. EXCEPT, they were given a family that loved unconditionally as one of their own. Just so they would never have to feel that rejected, unlovable loneliness ever again.
I have so much nostalgia for this and can you do a Do You Remember Video of Super Robot Monkey Team Hyper Force Go! and Yin,Yang,Yo! Please?They have been forgotten for far too long.
The main thing I remember is comparing Riley to Candace from Phineas and Ferb. Specifically in regards to how they both take a crush on a popular blond boy to weird levels of intensity and said blond boys have very different reactions to this. I'm honestly not sure which reaction is more realistic. I just thought it was funny that they both acted basically the same way and got completely different results...
I'll never forget there was a Replacements game on the Disney games website where Todd was flying a jetpack and you had to use the boost to keep him from hitting objects as he moved across the screen. I played it everyday after school and one day I actually got onto the top ten on the leaderboard. It only lasted a couple days but that will forever be a highlight in my life.
To me it was a great or good show but the finale was weird because that plot line of their uncle
Thank you for making these videos. I feel like I'm reliving my childhood. It brings me so much joy!❤️❤️❤️
Thanks so much for watching!
I was basically waiting for this video, I was well up in middle school when the show came out, but the replacements just screams my childhood.
I feel they ended in a decent enough way, I just feel it ended far sooner than the story it was trying to tell was ready. So many different life aspects were explored in a short time, and I feel much more was left unsaid.
r34 remembers the mother quite well.
All the best shows put only one of their two seasons on Disney+ on day 1 and don’t put up the other for over two years
This is easily one of the most underrated Disney shows. The episodes could get a bit formulaic but it had plenty of humor and many fun side characters. I never understood why it didn't get past season 2. I liked the switch from season 1 to 2 where they made episodes longer and more character driven. Agent K is also quite a hottie.
Yeah she’s so sexy and Dick is hot too
Ditto I loved the longer episodes
Although it's so niche, I am tempted to quote the episode where Riley replaces her pet donkey with a show horse surprisingly often! "This is it, boy... the big jump! I believe in you!" (in hyper specific intonation hahaha) is going to be forever burned in my memory. This show was actually one of the best parts of the ABC kids block on Saturday mornings. Thanks for this deep cut!
I definitely remember, I felt it was rather underrated. It was just enough slice of life, but enough fantastical elements to make it interesting.
Edit. I didn't know they gave it a proper ending. That's definitely a rare thing to see for a cartoon like that.
i like when you youtubers do stuff like that. i love nerdstalgic and i love you jordan. that was great. i follow watch and support both of you.
I absolutely loved this so much and i still know the german intro by heart. It was an underrated piece of art
3:15 ooh so that explains why I'm remembering they being adopted,I sorta remember that now,man it's been so long that I was like wait,aren't one of the kids adopted? but nope turns out both were adopted by them,holy shit I knew I was remembering something from this show,I just couldn't remember what until now
Yes and that theme song is perpetually stuck in my head because my IRL name is Todd and since it's so RARE to see those in media I really do remember xD
Have you ever seen the Wayside cartoon? The protagonist there is named Todd as well
@@tidepodpadthai2633 no I have not! Where is it?
@@Dabuddah It's on Nickelodeon!
I really want to see The Replacement on Disney+, and then, I'm still watching Glitch Techs on Netflix, eh?
this show was so nice. I feel like it wrapped up in the best way possible and was just fun to watch growing up
I used to think riley’s donkey was the coolest thing ever 🤣🤣
This show was awesome and so many hidden adult jokes 😂😂😂
That use of ad in-between breaks (5:10-5:19) was genius. You earned yourself a subscriber
I'm glad you covered the replacement I have alot of great memories watching this show
Me too😭😭😭😭♥️♥️♥️♥️
I always thought “wow can just replace anybody I want for $1.98? Dang why isn’t this real I can think of a few people I want replaced”. But my thoughts I felt it was a good show and it ended in a good way before it got to a point where the quality declines there like so many other shows that go on too long
I only remember the episode where they replaced their parents for the day. I remember them being really happy after getting them back.
A fun story abt this show is that it aired in mexico un the name La familia substituta (The replacement family) and me: (a mexican child learning how to talk) Called them "la familia prostituta" or the the prostitute family and my cousins laughed at me for it so yeah just a fun little story
I didn't expect this lore to be so god damn wholesome 😢
4:05 okay that image of makeover riley brought back such a fucking sense memory i had to pause the video and look up the full clip. i have no idea why it left such an impact on me as a kid but, wow, it did. the whole scene is carved into my frontal lobe
I think they should’ve done 1+ season more, like who they’re parents are and how many supervillain know K’s home. So yeah it was a good show.
I remember watching this show at 2am in the morning. It was heavily underrated and very good for its time.
I remember getting bored by this show as a kid, mainly because it never really went anywhere with its premise. It just got stale real quick that every episode was formatted the same; person is bad at job, Riley or Todd replace them, stuff seems good until it’s not and finally the person they replaced returns and it’s back to the status quo. It just felt like everything was stagnant and formulaic in the world of The Replacements and honestly, if I remember correctly, some of the people they replaced were just genuinely incompetent at their job and shouldn’t have been brought back once their replacement ended up not working out. Though that’s a lot of cartoons so I’m not sure why it stuck out so much to me specifically with this show, idk man. Maybe the fact each episode in season 1 was two 10 minute episodes that were basically the same story made the repetition more obvious? I also feel like the lesson of each episode was the same while other shows with a formulaic story structure usually shake up the takeaway for each episode.
I’m sure I’d like the show more today as the art is pretty good and I recall the show being decently funny, but the repetitive nature of the show might be why it ended up not getting picked up for a third season and why not a lot of people have especially fond memories of the show, only passively remembering it as that one okay show they saw as a kid.
You summarized exactly how I felt about this show compared to to others at the time to a 'T'
Its amazing how much a good show can stick with you during adolescence.
when I saw this was on Disney I was so happy to be watching it again I found myself saying lines out loud before they did while I was watching, even know I haven't seen the show in well over a decade.
I couldn’t remember how the voices sounded, nor could I remember any dialogue, but just a few months ago I found myself saying “you’re becoming the bully” to some cashier for some reason. He got so pissed he kicked me out. This show is timeless.
I remember answering an internet survey asking which of three shows I'd like to see, and this was one of the three featured shorts. I remember feeling apathetic about it, but I voted for The Replacements because it was the most interesting of the three. And then I remember noticing it on TV in the wild a couple years later. Aside from the pilot, I've never actually seen an episode of the show.
The theme song has been living in my head rent free all of these years!! This was my show back in the day! I hate that it was so underrated
Loved this one before Gravity Falls!
This show was so underrated. I love this show even to this day.
"The Replacements" is pretty much a cartoon show with bland-looking human characters, which is the reason why I wasn't able to get into it when the show aired on TV during the 2000s. :P
Oh my god I lived this show! It's been so long I've questioned if it even existed! Thanks for the nostalgia! Love their theme song
I think it got wrapped up nicely. It never overstayed its welcome and I feel like if it continued, it would've probably gotten at least some hate, especially since it's presence is almost the exact same in every episode.
After a fantasy episode of the replacements;me, my brothers, aunts and cousins played a session of D&D one Friday night and my character was captured and was told to drink a potion ( I remember the nerd kid in the replacements in that episode we saw beforehand said that he was potion intolerant ) and I said that my character couldn't because she was potion intolerant. She/I did had to drink the potion.
The thing i remember most from this show is the Power Ranger girl who claimed to fight Godzilla that turned out to be a J-pop star hiding from her fame by adopting the fictional persona.
Dan made something that I genuinely like because it's such a good yet wacky concept, and I especially loved the theme song. It tells the lore of the show in such a satisfying way and the end of the show felt so caring.
My biggest pro:
Theme song was catchy has heck!
My biggest con:
WHAT IS UP WITH THEIR NOSES THEY LOOK SO WEIRD!
the crossover i never thought i needed 💀😂 love nerdstalgic
Do ying yang yo! loved that show as a kid on disney
...I honestly didn't expect this rather episodic series to end with such a lore-heavy episode.
...Also, am I the only one who is a little bit creeped out that their _biological uncle_ - rather than raising the kids himself - decided to lowkey stalk them until he was able to open up an impossibly huge and overreaching powerful company, where he could effectively play "fairy-godfather" for these kids' every need...and also manipulated the circumstances to teach them life-lessons?
I mean...It feels like parenting with extra (unnecessary) steps.
Think about it; this guy is paying a pair of complete strangers to pair-up and raise his brothers' kids for him.
Geez I totally forgot about this show I loved the idea though and for some thought I could also get replacements as a kid.
Also the family reminds me of the manga/anime Spy X Family.
I always loved this show, but this is the first time I've ever heard of anyone else watching it. Fun fact, I rarely ever had the Disney Channel growing up, and would watch reruns of the show on ABC's one Saturday morning. I always wanted to see more of it, but they only ever played 6 episodes, and this show in general is hard to find. All the same, another great review as always.
I was a fan until the endless reruns on ABC Kids
It definitely went on too long, the episode story pattern gets repetitive at times, but such as kids shows at the time. The origins also raises a lot of questions and it would have benefited in answering those questions as soon as possible.
No. I don't even distantly remember this show... but I'll happily watch yer video.
