Tell Your Tale... but BETTER

[@Couriday]

I watched a Lauren Faust interview a few weeks back, and she mentioned that Strawberry Shortcake was one of the other shows she was considering making a reboot for. I can't remember if she chose one over the other or if Hasbro wanted her on MLP instead, but it's neat to have a sort of glimpse at what that show would sort have looked like, even if Faust herself isn't involved

[@seantaggart7382]

Hmm Ill see what to do *contacting* So you were doing a reboot of something right?

[@iszybrawl2466]

Imagine a universe where Lauren Faust makes Strawberry Shortcake,and she makes the lore super extensive and complex

[@bobcake8904]

Bro this is polished AF. Your in person cameos are amazing

[@ma.jbrony1754]

Yes!😂

[@IzzyMoonbow648]

Thank you for defending Izzy’s new VA 😭 I really like Ana Sani as her I think it fits her character

[@danielasolano5960]

“if flash sentry got a lobotomy” 💀

[@pennysanchez7656]

It’s about time you talk about what can arguably be the most underrated Strawberry Shortcake iteration ever made, and the best since the 2003 DiC series.

[@franknfurter5336]

I'm loving the recognition being given to cartoons that aren't as "fandom-y" or conventional for adults to become invested in. all art is art, and thus should be treated as such.

[@KirinCheepCheep]

You know, I wasn’t actually that knowledgeable on the new generation of Strawberry Shortcake, but from the way you described it and the clips you shown of it, it definitely looks like something I’d enjoy, and I’ll definitely give the series a watch sometime. Oh and if you’re looking for other shows that follow a slimmer structure to this and TYT, I’d recommend checking out the Monster High generation 1 web series, Ever After High, or Hello Kitty Super Cute Adventures, all pretty good series that I don’t see talked about much, with maybe an explanation for Monster High but I find the movies over shadow the show in terms of description

[@blaa6]

I know you joked about Bluey but I think it's worth talking about.

[@ImmaLittlePip]

Shout out to Izzy/Strawberry's va Man she is talented Same with Pipps va Okay glad to see some of g4s vas return they remain as talented as ever

[@FireSparkMLP]

I literally never thought I'd see another person who likes this show as much as i do, glad i was proven wrong I found out about it in sept of last year and currently it's tied for my all time favorite show. great video and i agree with pretty much every point you made also those lime vectors genuinely looked so smooth when put together at times and it caught me off guard almost every time LOL

[@NoahPopejoy]

I remember I got into this show on Netflix. I was getting bored of G5 and needed something new to watch. This shows up on my recommended and I decide to turn it on. Not just because I like MLP, but also because my mom grew up on the old Strawberry Shortcake shows. And... yeah. This feels like Tell Your Tale, but significantly more entertaining. Even having Izzy Moonbow's current VA, Ana Sani. Side Note: I showed this show to my mom, who grew up with Strawberry Shortcake when she was a girl. It was the weirdest thing hearing her able to call out each character in the main cast before they even said their names. XD

[@ImmaLittlePip]

6:27 Honestly i agree This is how tv shows from the 90s and 2000s did it back in the day If you noticed back then kids shows were just a melting pot of different races but it wasnt the focus it was the characters that mattered first It wasnt until the 2010s when tumblr thought gender and race is all that matters and well now we're even more divided and racial focus than ever which oddly enough has caused more racism

[@prench]

THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO. i wouldnt have watched this show if not for you. thank you, sir, for introducing me to my new favorite show!

[@BlazeWriter]

1:58 - 2:13 As someone who likes all the shows you’ve listed, I have to tell you that you’re sadly right

[@Flowermations]

You liking Strawberry Shortcake aka the main title character, is like me liking Spongebob Squarepants aka the main title character, their voice actors just do an excellent job voicing them.

[@Kauaimon]

Great video, you've convinced me to watch Strawberry Shortcake

[@LoneCarrot]

I might check it out, sounds pretty good. If you ever want a recommendation for a show to watch it's Wordgirl, I watched it as a kid and honestly it rivals my love for mlp. The video was great though, it's kinda crazy how much I can picture Izzy and how nice the jokes land.

[@dight_]

4:01 damn, g3 really pushed the limits of the playatation 2

[@KomaJordan]

When it comes to web series in the Tell Your Tale format, the one im currently obsessed with right now is Hello Kitty Supercute Adventures, sure each episode is 3 minutes unless it’s a 2/3 parter but I like the chemistry between the characters especially Kuromi and My Melody and comforting feeling that I get from FiM

[@owu_uwo]

PLEASE talk about "Hello Kitty and friends supercute adventures"! It's also a youtube short episode cartoon

[@Crypt-Kitty]

I had considered watching this, but never ended up doing it. Im excited to finally watch it now!

[@Jimperz]

I had no clue about this show as I haven't heard anyone talk about it until now, thanks for the recommendation! Also I know you joked about everyone not shutting up about Bluey... But freaking please talk about Bluey lmao

[@NoIDishere]

0:20 As a proclaimed popular Bluey artist and long time MLP fan, that is both funny and accurate.

[@minkyway86]

You comedic side is getting better. I will give that berry show a try

[@eglol]

I always was reminded of Berry in the Big City when seeing Tell Your Tale. They definitely feel similar to me.

[@ma.jbrony1754]

I highly respect your growth! I feel that you have come into your own identity as a KZbin creator. In your videos from earlier last year, it seemed as if you were trying really hard to be DWK, but I can tell that you have started developing your own identity by combining your inspirations with your creativity and personality. That is the moment that a creator's drive to create increases and content quality increases exponentially! I'm impressed.

[@Quiel245]

whoooa i used to watch a lot of the 2009 strawberry shortcake through a DVD i had (it may be still somewhere around here at home actually, but anyway) when i was smaller, and one time i got another DVD that had some episodes of the 2003 version, ironically that version attracted me a lot for being something newer, at least it was on my point of view lol. It was so different but i had so little of it to watch, and the dvd was damaged after a certain part too to make it worse so i could only watch like one (or two? i don't remember it right anymore) episodes, then one day i found a good amount of them on youtube, didn't watch all of it i think but it was a really nice experience, thinking about it, it gave me a similar feeling to the one i had when i watched FiM for the first time too, the amazing feeling of not knowing for sure what will happen in a story you're invested in I really have a tendency of getting stuff lots later their times huh, bunch of shows i really liked or like came out before i was born lol

[@prench]

fuck yeah, this is the perfect video for my vibe rn.

[@yondaime500]

I've been annoying people about this show for over a year now. Basically every time someone criticizes Tell Your Tale saying "you can't tell meaningful stories in the 5-minute format" or "Izzy's VA is bad". I certainly don't share your enthusiasm for TYT though. I also don't share your lack of enthusiasm for the musical episodes. I mean, episodes like Super-Berry, Find Your Voice (Aloma Steele btw) and Let the Good Times Roll are just amazing. And to me, Netflix already has at least two shows that are "Make Your Mark but better": She-Ra and the Princesses of Power and Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts. They just have less slice of life, because like, they have a world to rebuild, and there are actually threatening villains wreaking havoc, so they kind of take things more seriously, unlike the G5 ponies.

[@jaspi7615]

I'd LOVE to hear you talk about a show you think is like make your mark but better, that sounds fun

[@hoshinakinda]

I LOVE BERRY IN THE BIG CITY!!

[@mlplover72]

I was on and off considering watching this show but this totally makes me wanna watch it more than ever!

[@_GachaxKing_]

I literally got an ad of this show for the first song and I just immediately said DANIEL INGRAM??? IS THAT YOU???

[@thesupernaturalhouse]

3:35 "oh- i....meant for you to eat that-" Instantly i love her, why am i laughing so hard

[@cosm1c741]

I MISSED UR CONTENT !! GLAD UR BACK!!

[@alejandrootero8894]

The program seems great, but the FBI is watching me.

[@LStare110]

Omg! A video reviewing a show that I memed to high heaven!? I love how memeable this show is! And my favorite character is definitely Lemon Meringue! You have no idea how many times she made me laugh, her facial expressions are pure gold!

[@sleipnirthe8th339]

As a defender to TYT, thinking it’s better than MYM, I very much agree with your Points, and even I myself have a lot of criticisms towards TYT. And I can very much see this one show being better than Tyt, things like experience with knowing their audience definitely play a huge Factor. Either way, I very enjoyed your video on it 👍

[@officialsamstermadness]

This is the only version of Strawberry Shortcake I actually enjoyed! So much so, that I made a fan made movie based on the series, with another one on the way next year

[@speedforcespector]

Thank you for talking about it finally a praise video

[@kiddygoat]

OMGOMG THIS VIDEO TOTALLY CONVINCED ME TO WATCH THIS ALSOALSOALSO please talk about The Ghost and Molly McGee! I feel like you’d like it a lot!

[@123emilymason]

I love this show so much!

[@AlicornHana]

1:16 and for some reason makes me like tyt much more as a malaysian, strangely (its still credited as western animation because of where the writing studio is)

[@michaelmcjunkin1372]

You know what? You are RIGHT! I was glad to have watched it. (The first two seasons on Netflix at least). And even the Fright fall special. I like the songs and characters especially.

[@sweetdreams1028]

Woah! Had no idea this existed, but I’m gonna check it out! Can’t wait to hear Andrea and Tabitha’s voices again. 😋

[@3dsfan2002]

This is a far better reboot than powerpuff girls 2016

[@wynnefox]

Thing that gets me with Gen 5 MLp is the comics have been to the quality of G4 in story telling. While both shows feel like season 1 MLp where it was still getting the hooves under it.

[@nash6568]

Loved this show and loved the specials. Main issue is how short the episodes are.

[@antonrueda1044]

6:46 Nice Smosh reference in the back. Their Pokemon in real life series is awesome.

[@nveon]

Definitely will check this show out 😁

[@SkywalkerXD_YT]

Time for some crossovers

[@Cottagecat2368]

YESSS I LOVE WHEN YOU POST! also amazing video 😱

[@TheXMan]

I remember seeing this animation abit ago. I might pull the trigger on it.

[@SilverSpoonRiche]

10:40 "A better Diamond Tiara" (hisses) (inhale- supress "now look here you little sh") 😔 yeah, we didn't get to see Diamond Tiara after she was redeemed. Diamond and Spoon were never heard from again in FIM. Something I am still salty about to this day. Read IDW comics if you want to see the development Diamond should have gotten, including a two issue setup before Crusaders of The Lost Mark that shows Diamond and Spoon working together with the CMC to survive a hiking field trip gone bad. Don't even get me started on my second favorite Peppermint Twist.

[@Rainbow_Sish_Kabob]

He's alive! _He's alive!_ MAWHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

[@madchances]

I LITERALLY THOUGHT STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE HAD A MLP VIBE WHEN I STARTED

[@thesupernaturalhouse]

8:46 it gievs ne the same vibe as "OH GREAT HEAVENS-"

[@Lucky_Lyra]

I love this I didn’t even know this show was good 😂

[@Zistheone2]

I’ve been watching this show for a while. It’s still definitely a kids’ show and short runtime of the episodes does get annoying at times, but the writing is similar to seasons 1-2 of FIM I used to watch the Big Apple City episode from the original Strawberry Shortcake series when I was a kid, so I was actually excited when I first heard about it

[@hannahlamagna]

Hey shrawberry shortcake 2009 I still think is goods its like g3.5 and g4 mixed together with the whole voice actresses thing

[@Gamer_Dylan_6]

Great video as always.

[@retroradkat]

Crazy how this Strawberry Shortcake feels like more of a follow up to MLP FiM than the entirety of G5 🍓👏 I think it's due to the animation, pacing, humor, and of course the familiar voice actors!!! It really feels like watching season 1 of FiM again, or Equestria Girls. This is a great show

[@SplashSurfer216]

I’ve yet to watch this new Strawberry Shortcake, I’ll have to check it out! I have to disagree with and say I genuinely liked Berry Bitty Adventures for the designs, voices, and especially that kick ass catchy theme song!

[@EmeralBookwise]

I used to watch the original Strawbery Shortcake back in the 80s, but I've never kept up with any of the reboots... but if this review is anything to go by, maybe it's time I did.

[@kryzie]

dude that cover is so neat!! please post it

[@Bitsy83]

Speaking of the LGBT representation, did they ever confirm if Lemon‘s dad was trans or non-binary? They’ve only been in two or three episodes, but it really does sound like they’re either a woman transitioning into being a man or someone who is non-binary.

[@QuantumHippologist]

I don’t think it was confirmed as far as I know, he’s just voiced by Andrea Libman too. The thought did cross my mind tho

[@michaelbuono4007]

0:54 from left to right okay,Bad,Amazing

[@rjmckenzie4706]

I grew up watching both G2 and g3 of Strawberry Shortcake so its nice to see familiar faces. Honestly I might give this a look, based on what I am hearing I might think its good to watch to, honestly kids shows these days are doing so well somewhat.

[@Watzie23]

It makes me really happy to see how diverse the new generation is. When bitty adventures came out I was really upset to see all the poc characters from the previous generation get erased expect for one who was whitewashed 🙃the variety of the characters cultures was one of my favorite aspects of the brand so seeing it come back and even stronger than before is amazing.

[@firerose4495]

Actually, the Beast of Berry Bog special take place after season 1 and before season 2.

[@andrewkim9848]

It can’t take place before Season 2, since they’re all familiar with the Purple Pieman, and Grapes is hanging out with Strawberry and friends.

I've heard a lot of good things about this show... Although Tell Your Tale doesn't exactly set a high bar. I kind of feel like I'd be better off digging up the 2003 Strawberry Shortcake cartoon.

Big apple city was and is still my comfort show, I love how short the episodes are but they’re also still impactful. I have binged it so many times 😅 The humor also feels like it’s not forcing me to laugh. I occasionally let out a small cackle. It’s a perfect show for me. I also love the animation and quality compared to other shows :))) I also LOVED the trans representation, which is amazing.

[@yszman6478]

I think a better character comparison for Raspberry Tart and why she is awesome is Starlight Glimmer, a reformed antagonist that doesn't harp on her past so much, that is becomes their whole character, what a novel concept. Raspberry Tart was Strawberry Shortcake's enemy, now she is Strawberry's friend. Not that a little self reflection is bad, I mean realizing the path she was walking was the same path of the Purple Pieman's. Seeing what he is and being glad you changed.

[@DelvonCharles-f8f]

FINALLY! I’ve been waiting for someone to acknowledge SS:BBC for such a long time now. As a longtime fan of the franchise there is some lingering disappointment on the potential that it could have had if it had stuck more to the previous generations nature theme a little stronger, but as a cartoon enthusiast I really don’t mind! It’s such an entertaining, genuinely funny, and interesting show to watch and I’m hopeful this video will get other people to notice and enjoy it!
