They played this clip before their Live show in Philly. The whole auditorium was in tears 🤣😂

[@NotHeresrsly]

The moment they have to stop Paul F "did you really not catch-" is So quick, and it leads to one of the best June takes...ah! Just makes it even better

[@jamesdowning4205]

I enjoy how Jason can sniff out a June moment

[@WalterRexAndSofie]

June is amazing. Cartoon June as Watson to Paul F. Tompkins' Sherlock Holmes is SPECTACULAR.

[@BH-if4pi]

when excitedly point her finger and says "He blew out the candles!" is when i can die happy.

[@FrenkMelk]

OH MY LANDS! When so many years ago I first heard this episode, and then I heard Jason erupting in laughter over June's misunderstanding of the birthday candle blowing out I thought it was about the funniest thing I'd ever heard! I played that segment for anyone who would listen even if they didn't care I was so committed to spreading the humor inherent in that scene. And now to discover an animation of just that very segment which is so dear to me is like a whole next level of amazement for me! Thank you so much

[@CaseyRafter]

The color effect you did with Jason's skin as he's reeling from June's theory is perfect

[@scottishzombie]

Came here to say this exact thing. That was a brilliant idea to visually show that feeling you get when you're laughing that hard with friends. SO good.

[@vitreo1363]

The spinning head always gets me. We should get more of these videos.

[@Zoyla1976]

June is the best. I love her theories but this is my favorite

[@LSRandomHandle]

This is magnificent. An already beautiful moment is made even better by this fantastic animation. 200000/10

[@boppob1343]

I love how June knew the split second paul and jason started saying "uh wait" that she had missed something

[@meganchambers8108]

Make as many of these as you have time for and I will keep watching! These are hilarious! My favorite part is Detective June Diane Holmes.

[@BrooklynJackBlue]

When Jason clutches his hands together in expectant delight...I DIED.

[@lillianward2810]

That’s how I imagine it every time Jason asks someone to explain their theory on a plot point.

[@joebynum7877]

OMG The Nun-der Cover Trailer is absolutely amazing and bonkers!!!! Also the moment where June divulges into her idea of what happened in the candle scene was hilarious.

[@floresarts]

Hearing Jason laugh -- no, scream -- at June's theory was amazing.

[@spookz7]

Please do one for Street Fighter!! The part when June wants clarification as to what a street fighter is and Jason laughs so fucking hard.

[@Quackamagooska]

I just typed this! Let's crowdfund it. It is a moral imperative.

[@NicolieOlies]

I'm CRYING this was one of the best moments of the show, even funnier animated. These are great, can't wait to see more!

[@vitreo1363]

BEST KZbin VIDEO EVER MADE! When I discovered these HDTGM videos, I was at a sad point of my life… Now, I have a new purpose, all thanks to Jay. Animations are varied, so there's always something that appeals to everyone, and if you disagree, well… YOU HAVE NO TASTE! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

[@Spinellios]

I mean the level of detail.. "Alfonso Ribiero's birthday" made me laugh more than anything

[@Spinellios]

( 1:40 )

[@c09alexriz]

please, please make more of these. they are incredible!

[@andytelfer3613]

Please do a BB8, 'What's his mission?' animation!

[@JackDManheim]

I think I have a 'healthy' skepticism

[@mst3kanita]

Jason as the mgm lion is amazing

[@njuta]

he's a cute little foul-mouthed lion man and its perfect

[@saundersmd]

Jay Marks, youre a great man. Thank you

[@pipandkip]

You're so amazingly talented! I watch your videos over and over. And I've sent them to all my HDTGM fan friends. Thank you for sharing them with us!

[@patrickhassomethingtosay]

Animated Paul F. Tompkins may be my new favorite thing in the world

[@jfk256]

Holy expletive! That was fantastic! Great animation skills! When it said "After Earth" I was hoping it had the part with the candles! Best exchange in HDTGM history!

[@grimsnark4849]

Fuck yeah! Nundercover!

[@andrewlargent2871]

these animations of hdtgm are all amazing. i really hope that the crew has seen these at some point.

[@Firebert]

June is a blessing from God.

[@BobbySacamano]

Back again. Miss ya

[@Quackamagooska]

I love these. Can we crowdfund one for Streetfighter? I have to SEE Jason laughing at June's question.

[@vyr1605]

This was phenomenal! Thank you!

[@tennozeorymer]

I loved this moment, omigod. And your visuals really are the cherry on top.

[@kenishahillphillips4026]

Please say that you will make more. This was excellent!

[@wattsn24]

Dude, fantastic work! My co-workers are not silently judging me for laughing HARD at my computer right now.

[@CharlesAmericanus]

I would've watched this video multiple times if it was just the first 10 seconds. This is good stuff.

[@MikeMeehan]

YOU DO SUCH GREAT WORK

[@MikeMeehan]

4 years later I still feel this way

[@samlakin9561]

Thank you for this wonderful Hannukkah gift, this was one of my favorite eps to listen to, and I love it even more as a cartoon! Can't wait for nundercover!!!!!

[@wima13]

I need to download this podcast like NOW!

[@mikebrowne477]

These are the greatest.

[@blakewilke7374]

It's time for another one of these!

[@CERTAIND00M]

June Diane Raphael is a national treasure.

[@mikewilson1006]

This was delightful- thank you

[@foxhound13]

I love these! I hope you do more:D

[@asecretone]

One of their best eps

[@LoopsPls]

I need more of these

[@1980mjp]

Literally Bonkers!

[@SHLVideos]

That was adorable.

[@MeganSin]

I think spaghetti robot would be an amazing toon!

[@mrmattjkim]

episode 159 sleep walkers is full of animated comedy gold.

[@ShariqAnsari]

This is amazing.

[@MrKrk221988]

Incredible!

[@kinghadbar]

Juuuuuuuune.

[@darkalter2000]

Oh my god! This was hilarious when I first heard it on the podcast but watching it made me laugh so hard I though I might die.

[@BubblegumSocialClub]

This is the best ever!!! I loved if

[@StefWriter]

OMG I love the laughing in this one!

[@jonothanthrace1530]

Okay but a telepath whose mental powers worked via telecommunication would be a pretty fantastic character concept.

[@baki3626]

so...damn...perfect!

[@aaronbolay3001]

But what was it's mission?

[@RurouniStarchild]

June was literally in a "Wrecka Stow" situation.

[@kimmyblimmy908]

This is so good though

[@jonathanhogg5665]

I would watch the hell out of that Nundercover movie.

[@timmcdougall5492]

MORE! MORE! MORE!

[@CaseyRafter]

Starting this with nundercover...classy!

[@FeldBum]

Do them discussing the spectator audience for Mortal Kombat

[@OKArturo]

I would watch and repost the crap out of any of these you make. I have hopes eventually you may do a Nic Cage episode animation, or one of the Fasts! (Or even a longer video than usual, but with excerpts from all of them) I'm sure the animation would take some time. But it would be amazing :D

[@PeterDimas]

What exactly IS a street fighter?

[@METALOZON]

HDTG you need a camera in the office !

[@samlibutti]

How does this have so few views

[@attackofthecopyrightbots]

how the hell did you see this in theaters but then make this years after..?

[@JayMarksAnimation]

The original podcast is from 2013...

[@ilyastambolic33]

Jay, please realize you can make a living animating!!!!

[@deigning]

jasons hands are backwards! :Dc

[@attackofthecopyrightbots]

shes a lot prettier than the cartoon makes her
