For those who weren't able to see my Hey Arnold! Review on TH-cam, you can see it here while I fight the copyright on it: www.mysteriousmisterenter.com/nick-o-rama/nick-o-rama-hey-arnold
Thank you for the alt link and thank you for your in-depth reviews! Definitely a pleasant thing to look forward to every day during this cold and busy month
“Did I ever tell you that Nickelodeon can be stupid?” In other news, water is wet. But seriously, I miss this show, you never knew what you were gonna get...
"The most 90s of all the nicktoons" Showing June's eye trick as the most 90s thing example has to be my favorites examples. I even forgot we used to do that xD
the only thing i remember from this show was a fourth-wall break episode when they leave the cartoon to meet the creation process or something, so this would be a good time to remember what the show was actually about.
Henry and June were basically constant 4th wall breaks in and of themselves. They interacted with their own comic book and panels, talked regularly to the audience, acknowledged the camera and that they were a show - it was a lot of fun.
*_There's one of the shorts appears in KaBlam! It's called "Action Leagues Now" and we all know that there's a pre-existing Adult Swim show featuring a cyborg chicken that we all know today._*
This series has been just so incredibly fun to watch so far. I wonder if you're planning on doing the same for Cartoon Network or Disney cartoons another year, maybe.
Kablam has to be one of the most underrated Nicktoons alongside The Angry Beavers, MLAATR, Catscratch, As told by ginger, Chalkzone, Making Fiends, El Tigre, and Harvey Beaks.
Augh, too much nostalgia, it's killing me! I was born in '94, so I only remember most of these early Nicktoons through reruns and extremely random and vague first memories, but it still warms my heart to see anything from the '90's.
@@Sonic12Lexi Yes, I had a LITTLE bit of a '90's childhood. I still remember being absolutely floored by Sara MacLoughlin's "When She Loved Me" while watching Toy Story 2 in theaters at the young age of 5 and, for better or worse, forever raising my standards for children's animation and making me expect every animated movie, especially from Pixar, to talk up to me instead of treating me like a dumb baby with the attention span of a goldfish. On a related note, I remember being excited for "Pokemon: The Movie" and later thinking something was wrong with me because I didn't like it nearly as much as Toy Story 2. I also remember discovering Um Jammer Lammy at Blockbuster, somehow thinking at age 4 that Lammy and Katy Kat were the women Cat tried to woo in an episode of CatDog (before Dog ruined everything, of course), discovering an okay game even if it wasn't what I thought it was (although obviously it was too tough for toddler me who couldn't even read, yet, but MAN did I love the aesthetic). Of course, I do have fond memories of then-new pre-school shows like Blue's Clues, Clown in the Big Comfy Couch, and (unfortunately) Teletubbies and was allowed to watch those more often than Nicktoons aimed at older children (my Mom especially didn't want me watching Ren and Stimpy re-runs). It's hard to explain to younger generations, but if you actually remember the 9/11 attacks, the dawn of Facebook and Twitter, and the general decline of reasonable and compromise-friendly politics under George W. Bush, you can see why I generally get more nostalgic of my earliest '90's memories than my larger amounts of 2000's childhood memories (outside of the Nintendo GameCube and SpongeBob Season 3), especially because I was too young to know Bill Clinton was the President at the time and getting impeached for having an affair with another woman, and that in general adults weren't as obsessed with sharing their toxic opinions at inappropriate times as they were in a post-9/11 world.
Copywrong problems like this can be downright tragic. Similar issues plague Pinwheel, which I've described before as "KaBlam! if it was on Nick Jr." And they are pretty similar shows in structure (though _definitely_ not in tone). Which, like KaBlam!, ultimately worked against its preservation. Which is especially bad because Pinwheel was a *major* program for pre-Nicktoons Nick, second in importance only to You Can't Do That On Television. It was the only one of Nick's debut programs to make it past the seventies, and it got so much airtime throughout the entire eighties decade that it made Spongebob and Teen Titans Go look downright neglected. But because it aired so much, almost nobody bothered to tape it and only five out of the 200+ Pinwheel episodes survive to this day. The same thing would have happened to KaBlam! if it weren't for said staff member helping out. The moral of the story: _tape your darn shows, people._ You never know how deep they'll be buried.
At Least Mark Marek Had All The KaBlam Episodes & Uploaded them on his Website. Pinwheel Should Either, Have The Rights Given Back To Nick or Warner Bros. Actually EcKnoledge It & Give It Some Physical & Digital Releases. I HAVE AN IDEA!!! Warner Bros. & Nickelodeon Should Partner With Shout Factory to Release All the Pinwheel Episodes on A Bunch of 10-Disc Volumes.
Alrighty, here's the updated list. Enter flat out saying Arnold was likely his #2 favorite of the whole Nick pantheon made it's placement a no-brainer. KaBlam was a bit harder to pin down considering his differing opinions on each of the segments but I'm confident with where it stands. 1. Hey Arnold 2. Rocko's Modern Life 3. KaBLaM! 4. Aaahh! Real Monsters 5. Ren & Stimpy 6. Rugrats 7. Doug
And yet people act like Mr. Enter does a piss-poor job at giving fair reviews to Nickelodeon shows because he (rightfully) didn’t like them as much as their fandoms. It’s like they want to make him look like a poor man’s Doug Walker/Nostalgia Critic/Disneycember even though it’s objectively the other way around!
Actually, I looked it up. Angela Anaconda isn't owned by Disney. It would have the Disney moniker above the logo if so. Just because it aired on a network that is now owned by Disney (Fox Family, which became ABC Family, now currently called Freeform because potatoes) doesn't mean they own it. It was more of a syndication/export thing by Teletoon.
Kablam was my FAVORITE SHOW in the 90s then Ahh Real Monsters!!! And the Angry Beavers and then Doug. This is a good channel with lots of information. Nice work!
It still pains me that the Henry and June show pitch was cancelled. Honestly, my favorite part of Kablam was the synergy and chemistry between the two hosts. The segments are fun, but both Henry and June by themselves make for much more interesting characters to watch even when they are just part of nickelodeon's bumpers and commercials. I wouldn't mind more runs of the segments either. I loved what I have seen so far of JetCat, Loopy and Sniz & Fondue.
here's some interesting trivia on Sniz & Fondue the creator made an earlier pilot using the characters called Psyched for Snuppa and John R. Dilworth [AKA the one who gave us Courage the Cowardly Dog] was the director
Ah, Ka-BLAM!!! Nick's true rival to Cartoon Network's World Premiere Cartoon show(later rechristened as What A Cartoon! & later The Cartoon Cartoon Show for the remainder of the decade)
My favorite Kablam short was Action League now. About the creator's website thing, I'd recommend anyone interested in the show downloading them all to avoid any destruction.
I remember my dad got very excited to watch Prometheus and bob with me whenever the segment aired. He genuinely liked it, and it was always a bonding experience. That, and early spongbob.
Prometheus and Bob will always have a special place in my heart. My dad is very much of the mindset of "cartoons are for kids", but for whatever reason, he found this one hilarious, and would sit and watch with us just to see if that segment would come on, one of the few instances of my childhood where he would watch TV with my siblings and I.
One of my favorite shows back in the day. Quite obscure because they used to air it very early in my country. The alien and the Neanderthal was my favorite segment.
I don’t know why Mr Enter thinks Angry Beavers is a lukewarm show. So he doesn’t hate the show but doesn’t like it either I think thats what lukewarm means
The last season has the best animation but the stories somewhat was weak. I hope Angry Beavers ReSpooted gets made in the 2020s for the Netflix/Nickelodeon deal
Norb: "Great Googley-moogley! Dagget... we're Over!" Dag: "Norby... what happens when you're... "Over"?" Norb: "Aww it's not so bad. If a show's _good_ (..even if it isn't..) it gets rerun-incarnated!" "The cartoon-being-over guys rerun it over-and-over and they make lots of _well deserved money!"_ Dag: "Which they _share_ with the people who _made_ the cartoon, right?" Norb: "AH HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! ...right." "So ya see it's all for the better. Even though we're _vanishing,_ we'll be back over-and-over again _at virtually _*_no cost to the network!!"_*
I still love the way you described Kablam back in your Life with Loopy review: It oozes the 90s in all the best ways. I couldn't have said it better myself!
Hey, if you're curious, this show can be watched on VRV, and what you said about how Nick not having the rights to the one-off shorts explains why not all the episodes are on that service..it seems like the episodes that are missing contain the lesser known shorts.
I'm sure someone out there is downloading every last episode, ready to release them onto an unsuspecting public when the time is right, so I doubt Kablam! will ever truly fade completely away. And that's perfectly alright with me.
I would always get a "Sniz and Fondue" vibe from watching Mordeci and Rigby from Regular Show, The same goes for Henry and June, though I'd get a "Freddie and Sam" vibe from them.
One of my old animation teacher's first jobs was working on Stickin' Around. He still has some of the original drawings. He remembers the animation director telling the crew the rule for animating the show, "draw like child but also as an adult."
Thanks for the video! I used to watch this a lot, I remember watching MTV's Liquid Television (1991) and when KaBlam came out I thought it was like Liquid Television light.
All I remember is Action League Now!, I'm pretty certain I've never seen Kablam! ever. But still, pretty cool. You are right, it looks like a show kids would make and Henry and June sound like they could be your TV friends, or acquaintances.
For anyone who wants to find the staff member, it's Mark Malek. He was the animator of the Henry and June segments and their creator. He also made the intro. You can find all the episodes + 2 specials (Loopy special and the pilot of the Henry and June show) on the KablamKoner page on his website.
Hey! Really cool series of video ) and I like your voice a lot ! Kudos 🙆♂️ Ps for some point I’m unable to watch “hey Arnold” video , is it on purpose?
This is one of those shows that I completely forgot existed, but then I see the characters in this video and I'm like "Wait. I remember this...". Seems to happen a lot actually.
KaBlam is probably one of the best underrated cartoons of the 90s, in my opinion. Not only was this show entertaining and fun, but it's also hilarious! This show had very smart and clever writing, in my opinion! But my least favorite segment was of course, Angela Anaconda. But my favorite segment would probably have to be Action League Now. But my *personal* favorite would probably have to be Prometheus and Bob, I thought those segments were hilarious. Everytime I saw the Prometheus and Bob segments, I laughed my ass off. I really loved Life With Loopy too. Sniz & Fondue was pretty good too. And I just love KaBlam.
I remember Kablam. I always liked that Bigfoot was in it. One of my favorite jokes was the one where the duo broke up, and June sang a song about flying. And then she hit the TV screen and passed out. And then Bigfoot was like: uh, okay. Watch this while I try to fix this.
If there was ever a show I had mixed feelings about, this was it. I actually liked Sniz & Fondue, Action League Now, Prometheus and Bob, & Life with Loopy. But Henry & June & Angelina Anaconda I could have done without. Totally understood ALN getting it's own spinoff, since it was along the lines of Celebrity Death Match & Robot Chicken, but never understood AA getting one.
Oooh I'm looking forward to that next video. Angry Beavers was and still is one of the best cartoons I grew up with and it's all due to the writing and acting.
I genuinely forgot just how many good bumpers Nick used to have. I now wonder what your opinion of "Axe Cop" is, since it's a cartoon that was literally written by a child (with the older sibling punching up the writing).
I think I'll download Kablam to watch with my mom this Christmas, if it wasn't because of Snoopy, I'm sure this would've been my childhood for both of us

Well, it's finally on Paramount+.
That Angela Anaconda got her own show but Life With Loopy didn’t is a travesty
Somebody slept with somebody for that to happen

Prometheus and Bob, to this day, still makes me roll around laughing. It's just the perfect example of showing instead of telling.
Me too. Prometheus and Bob was my personal favorite segment of KaBlam.
Haha funny alien got hit by funny caveman
Good i love those segments
The eyelid trick just took me back like 15 years

I grew up in the 2000s and I still saw other kids do this

David Allen it’s Action League Now! not leagues.

I also very much remember watching Recess and enjoying it
I was born the same year.
Yeah, plus 1999 babies wouldn't have been 90s kids
Same. I even had a vhs player I used for a long time.
This series has been just so incredibly fun to watch so far. I wonder if you're planning on doing the same for Cartoon Network or Disney cartoons another year, maybe.
Kablam has to be one of the most underrated Nicktoons alongside The Angry Beavers, MLAATR, Catscratch, As told by ginger, Chalkzone, Making Fiends, El Tigre, and Harvey Beaks.
These shows too
I consider it forgotten more than underrated which is sad cause it had potential
At least it's not forgotten like Kappa Mikey. :P
At least The Angry Beavers actually got released fully on DVD. Same for ChalkZone.
Augh, too much nostalgia, it's killing me! I was born in '94, so I only remember most of these early Nicktoons through reruns and extremely random and vague first memories, but it still warms my heart to see anything from the '90's.
Makes it ended when you turned 6. This show has the same birthday as Hey Arnold and ended on January 2000.

Going to McDonald's with the family then coming home to watch this show on Friday nights is a very nostalgic memory for me.
Downloaded all of the episodes off of Mark Merek's Website a few years ago
I would always get a "Sniz and Fondue" vibe from watching Mordeci and Rigby from Regular Show,
The same goes for Henry and June, though I'd get a "Freddie and Sam" vibe from them.

I find it funny they copyright struck Aaah Real Monsters before Rugrats.
The Orginal animated sequences of Kablam helped shaped my writing skills. Especially in the field of character dynamics
All I remember is Action League Now!, I'm pretty certain I've never seen Kablam! ever. But still, pretty cool. You are right, it looks like a show kids would make and Henry and June sound like they could be your TV friends, or acquaintances.

June also had the most grunge rock, 90s outfit I ever saw in a cartoon. I fucking loved Kablam growing up.
Stickin around! what a classic, i remember watching it when i was a little tiny boy
I have been a huge fan of Kablam ever since I was seven, and I still love this Nicktoon to this very day. :)
Hey! Really cool series of video ) and I like your voice a lot ! Kudos 🙆♂️
Ps for some point I’m unable to watch “hey Arnold” video , is it on purpose?
I got recess in grade school, and I was born in the 2000s
Kablam was one of the most surreal show to come out of Nicktoons. I loved every minute of it
@TheMysteriousMrEnter, when did you plan on uploading your Hey Arnold review on here in the US?
OMG I remember this show
I miss classic Nickelodeon so much 🥺
This is one of those shows that I completely forgot existed, but then I see the characters in this video and I'm like "Wait. I remember this...". Seems to happen a lot actually.
Pure forgotten nostalgia... seeing it brought memories flooding back
i remember you making a review on this in an earlier video of yours, but im glad to hear the further thoughts you have in your mind.
KaBlam is probably one of the best underrated cartoons of the 90s, in my opinion. Not only was this show entertaining and fun, but it's also hilarious! This show had very smart and clever writing, in my opinion! But my least favorite segment was of course, Angela Anaconda. But my favorite segment would probably have to be Action League Now. But my *personal* favorite would probably have to be Prometheus and Bob, I thought those segments were hilarious. Everytime I saw the Prometheus and Bob segments, I laughed my ass off. I really loved Life With Loopy too. Sniz & Fondue was pretty good too. And I just love KaBlam.
I'm surprised you didn't mention the pre cursor to Codename: Kids Next Door, The Off-Beats. That was also one of their regular ones.
So it is kinda the Cartoon Cartoon Show of Nick. Except maybe coming first (too lazy too look up)?
I remember Kablam. I always liked that Bigfoot was in it. One of my favorite jokes was the one where the duo broke up, and June sang a song about flying. And then she hit the TV screen and passed out. And then Bigfoot was like: uh, okay. Watch this while I try to fix this.
The theme song for this show was done by one of my favorite ska bands called The Toasters. It was an instrumental version of their song Two Tone Army.
So Viacom being hypocritical is why I got that notice for the Hey Arnold vid that I couldn't see
I like Prometheus and Bob as well as Action League: Now!
Just started watching the show. I'm like 12, but this is awesome! Thank you for introducing me to this cool show!
I remember this, i remember really like watching this as a kid,
As a teen it, just like watching this.
They need to bring this back!
Recess is probably my favorite Disney cartoon of the 1990s, hands down.
If avatar and the loud house never existed Kablam would be the only nicktoon I rewatch over and over again
If there was ever a show I had mixed feelings about, this was it. I actually liked Sniz & Fondue, Action League Now, Prometheus and Bob, & Life with Loopy. But Henry & June & Angelina Anaconda I could have done without. Totally understood ALN getting it's own spinoff, since it was along the lines of Celebrity Death Match & Robot Chicken, but never understood AA getting one.
Oooh I'm looking forward to that next video. Angry Beavers was and still is one of the best cartoons I grew up with and it's all due to the writing and acting.
as a high schooler rn, I can say with 100% certainty that we in fact DO have recess in all years, in Australia at least...
The Sniz and Fondue shorts also got weird and unique sometimes, like when Sniz met those Tarter Sauce loving aliens.
I genuinely forgot just how many good bumpers Nick used to have.
I now wonder what your opinion of "Axe Cop" is, since it's a cartoon that was literally written by a child (with the older sibling punching up the writing).
I’ve been trying to think of the sticking around show for years like it was in the back of my mind and couldn’t think of what it was called
OH! What's that FUNKY smell!?
Yeah, and whenever I try and ask people what was that show with the stick figures and they just give an awkward blank stare.
Sharp Design right nobody knew what I was talking about I was starting to think I dreamed up the show lol
The creator of Life With Loopy also made The Adventures of Pete and Pete. The character dynamics and overall writing were very similar.
KaBlam was one of my favourite childhood shows!
Before it was in KaBLaM! , Action League Now was actually a segment in All That.
Huh, never heard of this one.
Looks kinda interesting, also I didn't expect Angry Beavers to be next, I thought that show was relatively newer.
I think I'll download Kablam to watch with my mom this Christmas, if it wasn't because of Snoopy, I'm sure this would've been my childhood for both of us
And now we reach my FAVORITE Nicktoon.
