Dear Mr. Hartman, My mom and I are trying to get voice acting gigs! And we’ve been doing voice over commercials on the radio for over 8 yrs, if you’re looking for Splatypus voices, we’d be honored to work with u

“Splaturdays! Every Saturday at 4 pm on Nick!” Lol it rolls of the tongue so well

[@ky-gp4sz]

Platypus? I thought he was going to say ghost, and that’s how Danny Phantom was created.

[@jamojunior1995]

Not even a nod to Phineas and Ferb here for honouring the platypus? Ah well, I'd still love to see this show

[@Electroid5]

It's always baffled me that networks will refuse to return the rights to properties they don't intend on doing anything with.

[@dilungmoveityafool777]

Why give it up? They got the power to pick and choose ideas to use.

[@Electroid5]

Yeah but they have to purchase the rights from the person who created them. It's weird to me that they'd buy a property then just sit on it and do nothing.

[@ScottJoC]

Think about it, it doesn't benefit them in any way to sell their properties. You'll only give a potential rival a chance to beat you

[@masontrimby8613]

Splatypus wouldve been the third most iconic platypus of all time.

[@Aelita3575]

You don't realize how much I needed to hear this... I've been trying so hard to create something I want but I've been held back and it's been ruining my week this last week recently.

[@elijahluma1709]

splatapuss actually dosent sound that bad MAKE IT HAPPEN BUTCH

[@JaydenvN]

I love all the Nick shows created by you

[@Mr194853]

Will you ever post the 3rd version of the Danny Phantom theme song?

[@jacktheanimator9816]

Well, Butch. I can't wait to see Splatypus. I'll be waiting for it.

[@benjiross1]

You should talk about your friendship with Seth MacFarlane. He named a character after you in his show, “Family Guy”. That’s pretty interesting, right? Also, hopefully you both are still friends.

[@ky-gp4sz]

YES!!!!! Splatapus! Now, just get the rights to Danny Phantom!

[@michaelbird3364]

I thank God nobody is revamping your stuff

[@Digioverride]

That's awesome. : ) really happy you regained the rights to your show. I bet its funny.

[@benny7812]

I'm so excited! For the new show and for more stories!

[@TheCommenterDragon]

I love all your shows Butch and i hope you do bring Splatypus to KZbin i just know it will be awesome.

[@lum4ngk4nt4]

Thanks for the Inspiration Butch!

[@youngceo1102]

So if this was possible, Danny Phantom totally has a possibility to get back to him right?

[@nicksullivan4994]

I need Butch Hartman to come back to Nickelodeon, Please!

[@HappyBob123]

That, will never happen

[@LeafRazorStorm]

So if you sold Splatypus in 2004, and they canned it in 2007... then I blame "Phineas and Ferb." Nick probably saw that show and thought "Whoops! Disney beat us to the whole cartoon platypus thing! Guess we can't use OUR cartoon platypus anymore lest we get accused of plagiarism!"

[@salehalkhlif4226]

I'm happy for you to get the rights back. I can't wait to see splatapuss

[@lorettarosy63]

I'm interested in watching the Splatipus. I am looking forward into seeing it.

[@matthewmensah481]

Splatypus is a Nickelodeon cancelled cartoon!

[@nickdegugs7190]

Got to hand it to ya, with the right voice actor I think Splatapus could be a winner. I recommend calling up Richard Steven Horvitz.

[@magicengland]

Wahooo! Can't wait to see it!! I love Butch advice videos :D

[@SymphanyinSorrow]

Love that you got the rights back. Happy endings! Can't wait!

[@RichChanLikesTacos]

I thought i remember the splatypus pilot airing when i was 13

[@feralfernweh6091]

OH MY GOD WERE GOING TO GET TO SEE IT?!?!?! THAT'S AMAZING! !!!!!

[@PeppersnoopTT]

Really glad you got the those rights! That main character's design alone is just golden.

[@tourdestax]

You should make a video talking about the anti-fairies. You have many main fairy characters: Wanda, Cosmo, Poof, Mama Cosma, Jorgen, Tooth Fairy, Cupid, Binky, Dr. Rip Studwell, Juandissimo, and the funny fairy, but there’s only 3 anti-fairies: anti Wanda, Cosmo, and Foop. Why is that ?

[@nerdlingful]

Love the homage to Bugs Bunny. Glad you got the rights back, can’t wait to see it!

[@yacnetwork3690]

Hey Butch congrats on getting SPLATYPUS back. How about releasing some of the drawings for reference and let the KZbin community make some animations. Albeit simple ones, I'm sure the fans would love to try.

[@officialcodyledoux]

I LOVED UR SHOWS!!! Bring something back or make more!

[@HappyBob123]

Maybe the Nickelodeon and Netflix deal will bring some of that shows back

[@Jderrock1]

You made my favorite shows growing up and I just wanted to thank you for the wonderful experience of great cartoons

[@emoranightmare5493]

Yes spatapus!! Down next we need to work on getting danny phantom back now! We can do this guys!

[@TXTGAL101]

What ever happened to pop star Britney Britney?

[@Alexindiegamedev]

What advice would you give to someone who wants to be a full time cartoon creator and voice actor

[@Rosales3269]

Now if only we can get back Danny Phantom… Since he's collecting dust in the ruins of '00 Nicks.

[@shellybolt6167]

I was wondering if you could do a video on the rights of your cartoons and the legalities behind it?

[@EmRose.r]

Am I just crazy??? I recognise the name of the show, the characters, and I swear to god I've watched it. If not an entire season, AT LEAST an episode. And I'm not mixing it up with TUFF Puppy either. I don't know, maybe I'm just insane.

[@devin_leary]

BUTCH! MAKE IT INTO A SERIES ON THIS

[@scottyboyca8162]

In what universe does the title and thumbnail relate to this video at all?

[@ijustdestroyedyoursewers675]

Can you upload it. My tablet won't let me download the app.

[@TomIannucci22]

I bet its cause of Phineas and Ferb starting in 2007 that they didnt pick up Splatypus

[@rudyagresta]

Looking forward to SPLATYPUS, it sounded good to me from the beginning!

[@ExHappyFace]

you know Phinnious and Ferb exists and Perry the Platypus kind of abused the idea of no show having that animal

[@Wolfiyeethegranddukecerberus17]

*And then there was Phineas and Ferb......*

Splatapus? You need the rights to Danny Phantom back, that's priority! Otherwise, can't wait to see this

[@scottyboyca8162]

EnigmaOfTheEchidna he cant

[@scottyboyca8162]

Chris Singh he can’t get it back. He fucked up and blew the budget during season 2 and now Nick doesn’t trust him with the property. Earlier this year he tried to buy it for upwards of three million dollars, they said no, it’s not happening

[@Friendstoyourend]

@@scottyboyca8162 and you know that how?

[@scottyboyca8162]

TriggerHappyHoopa it’s pretty well known, the lack of budget led to Butch having a greater presence in season 3 and that Butch spent most of the initial funds on advertising rather than producing. It’s also document on various sources that Hartman failed to get the rights for Danny Phantom from Nick at the price of three million dollars

[@MarceloRBottaro]

Very cool, Mr. Hartman, do you still have the original pilot that you can share on your channel? Hope this show gets made.

hey butch awsome videos it helped me a bit cause I am an amateur voice actor and i just got canned from an idie due to something with the recording and the direction I got and yes i was bad mouthing in my car to my day job but I am still starting out and more adventures to go

[@gabrielribeiro-mills8716]

You have created a lot of great Nicktoons!

[@thevirginiatechshow4155]

On your next video why was anti-Cosmo and anti-Wanda was taken out of The Fairly OddParents

[@thevirginiatechshow4155]

Yeah that’s might work

[@juliamurray8151]

Will you ever come back to Nickelodeon to finish the series of The fairy odd parentsby making one more goodbye episode or will the show ever make new episodes

[@juliamurray8151]

... Or maybe you can make one more episode called goodbye fairies where Timmy grows up and loses his fairies even though that's sad but I still think it's a good idea. So I personally love love love love the Fairly Odd Parents I love all about it from the old episodes to the new episodes thank you for creating the show.

[@kellomellow2791]

Butch, I fully support any thing you do, loved your shows Danny phantom and fairly odd parents, I can’t wait to see splatapuss, also danger dan is pretty cool too 😎,ALSO JUST THOUGHT OF THIS, what is “Zoo Mates” please talk about this cartoon!

[@WitheredFreddo]
