For like 15 years I could only remember "a robot whose limbs kind of looked like ceiling fan blades" and when I told my friend he was like "oh you mean Time Squad?"
dude i honestly didn't remember it either until i saw that buff guy and robot in the thumbnail and to be fair, i was literally like a 2 year old toddler watching with show so my memory is extreme hazy on this show.
Time squad, literally feels like a fever dream. I remember only bits and pieces, but I did enjoy. I did look it up in the past years to make sure I wasn't tripping. And I wasn't. Have never actually gave the time to rewatch the show, but I got a awesome TH-camr like you who goes back in the past and do it for me with a nice break down to go with it. Thank you, Jordan!
Seriously same I thought this show was a fever dream too for a few years 😅but I think I like it a bit🤔I sure or hopefully I'll rewatch this show when I can too.^^
Oh my g0dddd. Dude I loved this show. I dont know but as child i loved comedy and sci fi so much. Like i even enjoyed the prequel trilogy of star wars lmao. Really love your channel man. Its climbing up my top favorite youtube channels. Keep up the great work :)))
This show deserved way more than two seasons. Bloody genius all the way through and consistently hilarious. It's the 21st Century inheritor of the legacy of Mister Peabody and His Boy Sherman.
Time Squad follows Otto Osworth (Pamela Adlon), Larry 3000 (Mark Hamill), and Buck Tuddrussel (Rob Paulsen) who travel back in time to meet historical figures and save the future.
The quote “My husband pooped on the lawn! >:(“ has lived rent free in my head for the past 10 years or so. Now I finally know where it came from. This channel is fantastic for discovering what was and was not a childhood fever dream.
I remember Time Squad when it first aired and also having it remind me of the old Peabody and Sherman cartoons from Rocky & Bullwinkle. Time Squad was basically a "modern" version of that, which made me very happy. I also remember thinking that the character designs for Time Squad being very different from the other shows I was watching.
Time Squad is criminally underrated! Not only was it funny as heck but it was educational in the best possible way. I was always ahead in history class THANKS TO THIS GEM OF A CARTOON!
I'm going to go out on a limb here, but my guess is that the Time Squad unknowingly started the events that led to the Utopia by adopting Otto, who would go on to both create and lead it.
I actually legitimately loved this show as a kid. even before I fully understood the history behind the characters, it actually did spark atleast a little bit of an interest in history for me. Nowadays I'm not exactly a history professor or anything but I do really enjoy learning about these figures in books and documentaries. I can probably thank this show for helping that spark emerge. Also the intro was kind of a banger.
This is one of those shows that's only lived in the back of my mind and I never hear anyone bring up, like Sheep in the Big City. I barely remember any episodes but I enjoyed it a lot while it was on air.
I have so many fond memories of this series... Larry Downgrading and Cloning himself Russel being related to Billy the Kid The Boston tea party getting its start from introduction of coffee The microwave that could turn a pellet into a delicious meal The guy who invented news paper using it to post conspiracy theories The trojans getting their asses kicked by wild horses Good times...
AIN'T NO TIME LIKE GO TIME! My brothers and I used to watch this show amongst others after school every day. It's great to know that people really enjoyed it the same as we did.
I remember rewatching the first couple of minutes of Time squad on Cartoon Networks old website with my folks old dial up connection. "YOU WANT A PIECE WELL COME ON! YOU WANNA GO IT IS GO TIME" just this big goofy guy and this sassy robot coming out of no where trying to stop the creator of the cotton gin from building flesh eating robots. dang i loved that show... I think i loved the Happy Edgar Allan Poe breaking down after putting up with the 3 whining was always my favorite
OMG I TOTALLY FORGOT ABOUT TIME SQUAD! Time Squad and Clone High are two of the major reasons I love history as much as I do. Dude, you seriously unlocked a door in my childhood memory that isn’t traumatic, thank you!
I remember one specific episode where Buck and Larry were trying to help the Founding Fathers of America write the Declaration of Independence. Otto wasn't there cause he was sick, so Buck and Larry kept screwing it up. Finally, they had no choice but to bring Otto in, who gave them the opening lines to it, letting them figure out the rest on their own.
Seeing the thumbnail for this video awakened dormant memories in my brain. I didn't remember the name of the show or the premise, but the character designs were immediately recognizable. But watching the video brought it all back. This is insane.
Finally you talk about it! I remember this show because whenever I got asked which cartoons I liked in CN at the time, I always said Foster's Mansion, Billy&Mandy and Time Squad, after that last one, everyone gave me "The Look™" since it was a show that came up late at night and I was one of those kids who worked until late to have all my HW finished, not many kids got to see it, whenever TP showed up on TV, I knew it was time to rest or just take a small break to watch it and continue. Thanks for shedding a small spotlight for this forgotten cartoon I used to love Jordan 💖
I LOVED this show. I love history so a humorous show about solving issues that happened to historical figures was right up my alley. The show a funny Tuddrussel and Larry’s interactions were just gold, they were just like the odd couple, both trying to do their job but having little idea how to best to do it often times just barely got by. Otto was good too, him being and orphan made him a little sympathetic and he was very knowledgeable about the historical figures that he, Tuddrussel and Larry had to help but was still a little kid who could get over excited. I liked the pair of Sheila and XJ5 who are just better then Tuddrussel and Larry in every way the historical figures they ran into were great, yeah, the situations they were in usually made no sense, but it IS a comedy show so I give them a pass on that one. If this show was someone into to history and its figures, and it made them want to study it more than that’s fantastic. I think this show was the first to tell me that Julius Caesar and Cleopatra were lovers (ok they use boy friend and girlfriend but it’s the same thing) I wish that the show did better, but I guess it humor didn’t appeal to enough viewers and even I have to admit that a show based on solving humorous and nonexistent problems in history will have a pretty limited audience. While it’s not any “ending” for the show nor can I think of one, I always liked the idea that Otto was eventually sent to the academy and became an official time cop
Huge nostalgia blast just from looking at the thumbnail. I specifically remember this show being the first time I learned how short Napoleon actually was. As for Bush’s portrayal, I’d say that episode was more so a victim of the times. So many shows did the “haha Bush is dumb and childish” joke from 2000-2008 in the same way late night shows can’t stop talking about Trump in modern day. It was easy jabs at a president (Bush) who, to put as nicely as possible, wasn’t historically the best public speaker or policy decision maker. If a kid’s cartoon tried to do this now, politicians wouldn’t accept it, and to me that’s kinda sad. Everything should be allowed to be made fun of; besides, the kids didn’t get any of it, nor did they care to.
Politicians not only would accept it, they would actually love it... if the show would made fun of trump, but making jokes about democrats?, that's a big NO.
One of the few shows I ACTUALLY forgot about until seeing this video in my recommended just now. You're really digging to find those super obscure shows of the past and I applaud you for it 👏
You know, Time Squad was recently shown in the new series Villainous. It was in one of the villain orientation episodes where Demencia went to their universe and conquered it. It is sadly in Spanish subs, no English yet.
This is definitely one of those shows that I contemplated whether or not it really existed. Thanks! i do wish you’d show a little more audio in these videos, I know theres risk of copyright stuff, but in the interest of remembering these lost treasures I’d love to hear the voices again
Two episodes stick out to me. The first is when Confucius was writing novels of advice instead of keeping it small but precise, and Buck just kept beating the shit out of him. Buck however never explained why so Confucius just kept making larger and larger stories stories, thinking that the reason he was being beat up was because he wasn't writing enough. The second episode was when Edgar Allen Poe was inexplicably joyful and happy and obsessed with all things pink and cheerful. The team would go through everything to make Poe's life seem miserable, making accidents happen or reminding him of all the hardships he's faced, but Poe's optimism was just far too fortified to waver. That was until Larry began to critique Edgar's way of life, commenting condescendingly on the house, the clothes, the decor, slowly wearing Edgar down until Otto sheepishly requested milk for cake that was just a little dry. That is what somehow made Poe snap and switch him to the miserable poet of despair he's known to be.
This show is an instance of something I watched when it was new, immediately forgot everything about, but as soon as I saw your thumbnail my brain went "I REMEMBER THIS SHOW AND EVERYTHING ABOUT IT."
About there not being a main villain of the show. The crew of the show said that they would have used JT Lazer and Lance 9 Trillion as the main villains if they would have gotten a 3rd season. This is what they said "Oh yeah! We loved those a-holes. They would've been serious series villains if we could've made more eps. ps- JT Lazer was an homage to Robocop's TJ Lazer.".
Everything you post is an instant like and a nostalgia trip. How I forgot so many of these shows completely baffles me. Also, I just now realize how much TV I actually watched as a kid...
I’m currently rewatching Time Squad and I just finished rewatching the first season from Eli Whitney to The McCoys and Hatfields, and I’m currently taking notes on all of the historical events and figures that appeared, since the subject of history is not something I’m good at, and I’ve never been so interested in it until I watched Time Squad. It’s such a shame that the show ended so short, it deserved at least one more season. I just wish we could’ve learned about what happened to Otto’s parents and how he became an orphan.
I loved Time Squad as a kid and I revisited it a few years ago and I still found it hilarious. My favorite episode will always be "White House Weirdness." The entire episode is a parody of the original Scooby Doo series, from the story structure to the tone and sound design. It blew my mind as a kid and it fostered my love of parody movies/episodes.
I remember that show. Haven't watched all of it, but I do remember some important lessons from it. Like how Eli Whitney, inventor of the Cotton Gin, invented the flesh-eating robot, and how the Earl of sandwich was the inventor of the doughnut.
Holy crap! You just unlocked a hidden memory! I completely forgot Time Squad, but I saw the thumbnail of the vid and memories just rushed back into my mind. I very vividly remember the scene with the Trojan horse :O
I think about the "and bacon is good for your heart" bit in the intro way more often then I should. I actually forgot where it came from it almost became like a weird mental tick for me whenever I thought about bacon and how bad it is for you haha. Thanks for taking me back Jordan!
Time Squad reminded me of another time travel show I watched way back in the 1980's called Voyagers!. The explanation mark is part of the title. There was a time traveler that used a stopwatch looking thing to travel through time. He wasn't very smart when it came to history. He wound up taking an orphan with him on his time travel journeys that actually knew history. The stopwatch thing was also a little broken too. The show only ran one season, about 20 episodes in total. I'd like to think the creators of Time Squad were somewhat inspired by that show, or maybe it's just a coincidence.
Watching this channel has reminded me of some of the cartoons I watched when I was very young. It's nice to go on these nostalgia trips every week. I just wish I had a better memory so I can recommend some of the cartoons I watched and have you talk about them.
Man I'll be going about my life and a random old show I used to watch as a kid would pop into my head and I'll ask my wife if she remembers it and she always says no. It was so nice when I found your channel, it's like talking about my childhood with a friend I grew up with.
I am glad you reminded us about the show. Small as it was, it was a animated show that fit the bill of a Cartoon back in the Golden Age of Cartoon Network. The show's pace and jokes were done right and even today as a Adult I laugh at some of the wacky scenarios. However I would like to add, I hope no body touches the show again because this is something that has aged well and should not be remade.
Oh wow, I totally forgot about this show. It was great, yet short lived. It was awesome seeing Mark Hamil do his interpretation of C3PO, he's such an amazing voice actor, I remember watching this show and then KND which he also voiced Sticky Beard and being in awe of his range.
Shows I need you to cover (in no particular order) : 1. Galactik Football 2. Storm Hawks 3. Cramp Twins 4. Chaotic 5. Anything else cuz I love ur content
I remember watching this show, enjoying it, and no one ever talking about it, but I’m glad that this video exists now and I can show them this. Awesome video !
It’s amazing how so many of these shows I forgot about until you make a video about them! Totally wouldn’t have thought of this show until you brought it back to my memory. I liked this show when it was on, reminded me a lot of Peabodys improbable history from Rocky and Bullwinkle, which I used to watch reruns of.
Yes I most definitely do remember it. It, along with Mike Lou and Og are two of CNs shows that flew under the radar in the early 00s during that golden age of the channel.
Yesterday I was exactly wondering if you had already covered this show, I couldn't find any video but you did today! 😁 Thanks for bringing back memories!
I loved this show as a kid. The Edgar Allen Poe episode was a favorite of mine because I was a huge history buff at the time and did a recent assignment in school about him. Even used this episode in my work as a bit of fluff but managed to get bonus points for making my teacher laugh. Good times.
MAN seeing this thumbnail in my notifications hit me like a train... I watched this show so much but completely forgot about it. Brought me back to sitting in my grandparent's basement, watching cartoons for hours... great times! Thanks as always Jordan, always appreciate your videos ☺️
What are the odds? I just found your channel a few days ago and then you drop this on what is probably my favorite show from cartoon network. I remember how I enjoyed the chemistry between the characters and the small history lessons as I am still quite a history nerd. For some reason I mainly remember the one with George Washington and Benedict Arnold, but I think it's time for a rewatch! Thank you and please keep up the good work! It's so nice to be reminded of these old shows!
Every time me and my best friend would talk about this show, the very first episode that always comes to mind is "Ludwig Von Bonecrusher", in which Ludwig Von Beethoven becomes a professional wrestler. XD
i have a core memory of this show. it premiered when I was a child and we too my brother to the hospital and we watched the show in the lobby of the ER
This is still one of my favorite shows from back in the day when creativity was allowed to thrive in cartoons. Now in my 30s, I still regularly quote this show, but no one catches any references because of how forgotten it became. I picked up a bootleg copy of the series at a convention about a decade ago now to the point where it even still has old Cartoon Network promo ads while the credits are rolling. Pure gold!
I can barley remember any of the episodes of this animated show, but i can remember the characters. Granted, i was around 5 years old at this time, but i can remember loving it. Strange feeling not remember something completely, but remembering you loved it
I do not remember this show's name, or anything about it but as I was young when it came out and only saw an episode or two I do know about it, but nothing else. This was it for me, that show that I knew was a thing but didn't know what it was. Every time I said to my friends remember that show with the kid and the robot it would always be, what ever happened to robot jones. I know that it wasn't that but this show right here was for me, the one that lived for years and years in the back of my mind rent free and all I remember was it made me laugh, and it exisited. Thank you so much for bringing this to the light.
Discovered your channel about a week ago, and while most of these I remember there's been a few I don't or only remember vaguely. Really enjoying the trip down memory lane:)
I remember this show despite never seeing a single minute of it as a kid. Never watched it. Kinda cool to finally know more about it after all these years. All I know is what I saw on the commercials for it on CN
My family has a Time Squad marathon recorded on VHS, and its probably the only reason I even know about the show. I should pull that out and watch it again, see if it still holds up.
This was one of my favourite shows as a kid. I loved watching their crazy shenanigans 😆 When Loki was introduced, I immediately said to myself "TVA is a lot like Time Squad!".
I used to watch this show, but I don't really remember anything about it other than what the characters look like. Very nostalgic for it though! I love hearing about the Cartoon Network "Cartoon Cartoon" show. They were a big part of my childhood, like many others. Thanks for covering so many of them! And great video as always 😄
Time Squad is a show I remember almost nothing about but could never fully forget; just I’ll be working at my job twenty years later then randomly a little scene would just start playing in my head, & it’s usually funny.
Cartoon Network’s acknowledgements on Time Squad: -Larry 3000 as a disembodied head in Cartoon Network Universe: FusionFall -Tuddrussel and Larry in Cartoon Network’s 20th anniversary poster -Tuddrussel, Larry, and Otto in Villainous (special: The Lost Cases of the Future) -Larry 3000 in OK K.O.! Let’s Be Heroes (episode: Crossover Nexus) -Tuddrussel’s yellow googles in the mobile game, KleptoCats: Cartoon Network
If I recall correctly, there were a lot of digs at Bush around that time. Off the top of my head, there was Lil Bush on Comedy Central and Fairly Oddparents had a jab at him too. "I'm goin' to Escalator Land!!"
I hope you can one day cover Pucca! I've seen you cover Jetix shows and have been really enjoying it, and I just remember having faint memories of Pucca on Jetix and how vibrant and animated the characters were
Thanks so much for watching! Which episode of Time Squad was your favorite?
I hope this bot wrong but I do remeber an episode where they went to a tropical place or island. That I vaguely remeber being my favorite
The Edgar Allen Poe one where he was cheery and bubbly amd the time squad had to go back and make him brooding and miserable.
the one about coffee, say... are you going to do moville mysteries in the near future?
bro thank you!! I've been waiting/hoping you'd cover this and many other shows you're the man keep up the great work.
That sounds like Juicy playing in the background of the video. Is that the Juicy instrumental??
For like 15 years I could only remember "a robot whose limbs kind of looked like ceiling fan blades" and when I told my friend he was like "oh you mean Time Squad?"
Lmao
dude i honestly didn't remember it either until i saw that buff guy and robot in the thumbnail and to be fair, i was literally like a 2 year old toddler watching with show so my memory is extreme hazy on this show.
Time Squad is CRIMINALLY underappreciated
Highly agree
100% agree with u i haven't watched Time Squad in possibly yrs lol it's legit underrated the animation, & graphics quite give me a Clone High vibe.
Im here thinking of swat kats because underated shows are my Jam
Facts I actually forgot about it
Definitely.
The one thing I love about your channel is that I legitimately don’t remember a good amount of the shows you cover. Keep up the great work!
Thanks so much for the support!
Same here it's like this guy legit unlocks memories that I completely forgot I had.
television raised me
im the opposite i remember almost all of these
Same here. I have no idea how I can forget shows I loved so much.

This show and Robot jones felt like fever dreams for sure
@@nickmatthews5323 dude almost nobody remembers robert Jones. All these years later and people still wanted more episodes of it.
Oh my g0dddd. Dude I loved this show. I dont know but as child i loved comedy and sci fi so much. Like i even enjoyed the prequel trilogy of star wars lmao. Really love your channel man. Its climbing up my top favorite youtube channels. Keep up the great work :)))
The prequels were flawed but still entertaining and had a message about various things.
This show deserved way more than two seasons. Bloody genius all the way through and consistently hilarious. It's the 21st Century inheritor of the legacy of Mister Peabody and His Boy Sherman.
Time Squad follows Otto Osworth (Pamela Adlon), Larry 3000 (Mark Hamill), and Buck Tuddrussel (Rob Paulsen) who travel back in time to meet historical figures and save the future.

This channel is fantastic for discovering what was and was not a childhood fever dream.
For me it was "My teenager is a pig! ... Oh, and he also thinks he's a squirrel."
I remember Time Squad when it first aired and also having it remind me of the old Peabody and Sherman cartoons from Rocky & Bullwinkle. Time Squad was basically a "modern" version of that, which made me very happy.

Otto even resembles Sherman, I can't believe he didn't mention that in the video.

I'm going to go out on a limb here, but my guess is that the Time Squad unknowingly started the events that led to the Utopia by adopting Otto, who would go on to both create and lead it.

Definitely one of the most forgotten Cartoon Cartoons, Mike, Lu & Og coming soon? I used to enjoy the reruns of that on Boomerang
I'm glad to see more people remembering this awesome show!
a very underrated show. i wish they had continued to make episodes. it deserved 3 more seasons at the very least.
I’ve been waiting for both of Time Squad ‘s seasons to get a DVD release for decades. This is my childhood.

The entire episode is a parody of the original Scooby Doo series, from the story structure to the tone and sound design. It blew my mind as a kid and it fostered my love of parody movies/episodes.
this show was my absolute f.... favourite. i love your channel dude, you make the best fever dream reminders
My absolute favorite show. I have it downloaded and keep watching it throughout the years.
Time Squad was an all-time favorite and one of the tiny handful of shows I had to be at the premiere for. It was worth it.
I LOVED this show. It had so much potential. It deserves to be brought back
YES! So glad you were working on this when I asked about it like a month ago.
I remember that show. Haven't watched all of it, but I do remember some important lessons from it. Like how Eli Whitney, inventor of the Cotton Gin, invented the flesh-eating robot, and how the Earl of sandwich was the inventor of the doughnut.
I distinctly remembered the show but could never remember the name until now... I thank you so much for making a video on it
“During a time when the United States was in a time of Fear and Uncertainty”
Seems like every other year to me
Holy crap! You just unlocked a hidden memory! I completely forgot Time Squad, but I saw the thumbnail of the vid and memories just rushed back into my mind. I very vividly remember the scene with the Trojan horse :O
I think about the "and bacon is good for your heart" bit in the intro way more often then I should. I actually forgot where it came from it almost became like a weird mental tick for me whenever I thought about bacon and how bad it is for you haha. Thanks for taking me back Jordan!
Time Squad is such a criminally underrated show that not only needs more love, but it also deserves much better...
Time Squad reminded me of another time travel show I watched way back in the 1980's called Voyagers!. The explanation mark is part of the title. There was a time traveler that used a stopwatch looking thing to travel through time. He wasn't very smart when it came to history. He wound up taking an orphan with him on his time travel journeys that actually knew history. The stopwatch thing was also a little broken too. The show only ran one season, about 20 episodes in total. I'd like to think the creators of Time Squad were somewhat inspired by that show, or maybe it's just a coincidence.
Watching this channel has reminded me of some of the cartoons I watched when I was very young. It's nice to go on these nostalgia trips every week. I just wish I had a better memory so I can recommend some of the cartoons I watched and have you talk about them.
Man I'll be going about my life and a random old show I used to watch as a kid would pop into my head and I'll ask my wife if she remembers it and she always says no. It was so nice when I found your channel, it's like talking about my childhood with a friend I grew up with.
This channel brings back like 80% of the nostalgia i completely forgot about that lived nameless in my brain but that i knew existed. Thank you.
I am glad you reminded us about the show. Small as it was, it was a animated show that fit the bill of a Cartoon back in the Golden Age of Cartoon Network.
The show's pace and jokes were done right and even today as a Adult I laugh at some of the wacky scenarios.
However I would like to add, I hope no body touches the show again because this is something that has aged well and should not be remade.
Appreciate the predestination shoutout. One of the greatest sci-fi thrillers of all time
Oh wow, I totally forgot about this show. It was great, yet short lived. It was awesome seeing Mark Hamil do his interpretation of C3PO, he's such an amazing voice actor, I remember watching this show and then KND which he also voiced Sticky Beard and being in awe of his range.
Shows I need you to cover (in no particular order) :
1. Galactik Football
2. Storm Hawks
3. Cramp Twins
4. Chaotic
5. Anything else cuz I love ur content
I remember watching this show, enjoying it, and no one ever talking about it, but I’m glad that this video exists now and I can show them this. Awesome video !
It’s amazing how so many of these shows I forgot about until you make a video about them! Totally wouldn’t have thought of this show until you brought it back to my memory. I liked this show when it was on, reminded me a lot of Peabodys improbable history from Rocky and Bullwinkle, which I used to watch reruns of.
I loved this show even as an adult, it reminded me of Voyagers 1982 and Mr. Peabody.
Please, you're so precious for doing these videos😭💕
Yes I most definitely do remember it. It, along with Mike Lou and Og are two of CNs shows that flew under the radar in the early 00s during that golden age of the channel.
Yesterday I was exactly wondering if you had already covered this show, I couldn't find any video but you did today! 😁 Thanks for bringing back memories!
I loved this show as a kid. The Edgar Allen Poe episode was a favorite of mine because I was a huge history buff at the time and did a recent assignment in school about him. Even used this episode in my work as a bit of fluff but managed to get bonus points for making my teacher laugh. Good times.
MAN seeing this thumbnail in my notifications hit me like a train... I watched this show so much but completely forgot about it. Brought me back to sitting in my grandparent's basement, watching cartoons for hours... great times! Thanks as always Jordan, always appreciate your videos ☺️
Thanks so much for watching!
Your videos are always so diverse and interesting! I look forward to new releases!
What are the odds? I just found your channel a few days ago and then you drop this on what is probably my favorite show from cartoon network. I remember how I enjoyed the chemistry between the characters and the small history lessons as I am still quite a history nerd. For some reason I mainly remember the one with George Washington and Benedict Arnold, but I think it's time for a rewatch! Thank you and please keep up the good work! It's so nice to be reminded of these old shows!
THAT'S THE NAME OF THIS SHOW! THANK YOU!! I've been trynna remember the name of this sbow for the LONGEST time haha.
Every time me and my best friend would talk about this show, the very first episode that always comes to mind is "Ludwig Von Bonecrusher", in which Ludwig Von Beethoven becomes a professional wrestler. XD
i have a core memory of this show. it premiered when I was a child and we too my brother to the hospital and we watched the show in the lobby of the ER
This is still one of my favorite shows from back in the day when creativity was allowed to thrive in cartoons. Now in my 30s, I still regularly quote this show, but no one catches any references because of how forgotten it became. I picked up a bootleg copy of the series at a convention about a decade ago now to the point where it even still has old Cartoon Network promo ads while the credits are rolling. Pure gold!
I can barley remember any of the episodes of this animated show, but i can remember the characters. Granted, i was around 5 years old at this time, but i can remember loving it. Strange feeling not remember something completely, but remembering you loved it
I still remember the Edgar Allen Poe episode completely. When he snaps over the cake and goes from super happy to goth is just hilarious to me.🤣
Get some!! This was one of my favorite shows. I tried to explain this show to a friend a few months ago.
I do not remember this show's name, or anything about it but as I was young when it came out and only saw an episode or two I do know about it, but nothing else. This was it for me, that show that I knew was a thing but didn't know what it was. Every time I said to my friends remember that show with the kid and the robot it would always be, what ever happened to robot jones. I know that it wasn't that but this show right here was for me, the one that lived for years and years in the back of my mind rent free and all I remember was it made me laugh, and it exisited.
Thank you so much for bringing this to the light.
Discovered your channel about a week ago, and while most of these I remember there's been a few I don't or only remember vaguely. Really enjoying the trip down memory lane:)
I remember this show despite never seeing a single minute of it as a kid. Never watched it. Kinda cool to finally know more about it after all these years. All I know is what I saw on the commercials for it on CN
My family has a Time Squad marathon recorded on VHS, and its probably the only reason I even know about the show. I should pull that out and watch it again, see if it still holds up.
This was one of my favourite shows as a kid. I loved watching their crazy shenanigans 😆
When Loki was introduced, I immediately said to myself "TVA is a lot like Time Squad!".
I used to watch this show, but I don't really remember anything about it other than what the characters look like. Very nostalgic for it though! I love hearing about the Cartoon Network "Cartoon Cartoon" show. They were a big part of my childhood, like many others. Thanks for covering so many of them! And great video as always 😄
Time Squad is a show I remember almost nothing about but could never fully forget; just I’ll be working at my job twenty years later then randomly a little scene would just start playing in my head, & it’s usually funny.

Loved this show as a kid! A shame it didn't get another season!
am i the only one that loves how jordan puts his mid rolls precisely like actually commercial breaks
If I recall correctly, there were a lot of digs at Bush around that time. Off the top of my head, there was Lil Bush on Comedy Central and Fairly Oddparents had a jab at him too.
"I'm goin' to Escalator Land!!"
Wow, you've unlocked memories in my brain that I didn't even know I had.
I hope you can one day cover Pucca! I've seen you cover Jetix shows and have been really enjoying it, and I just remember having faint memories of Pucca on Jetix and how vibrant and animated the characters were
YO, FOR REAL, I FELT LIKE THIS WAS A FEVER DREAM I NEVER GOT TO EXPERIENCE BUT HAS BOW COME BACK TO ME . THANK YOU SO MUCH HAAAAAAAAHHHH
Early 2000s cartoon network was the golden age. I watched this channel non stop and boomerang.
The "board with a nail in it" joke still lives in my head rent free
