The Rise and SAD Fall of Breadwinners

Breadwinners, a cartoon on Nickelodeon that lasted for two seasons about two best friend anthropomorphic ducks whose job it is to deliver bread with their flying van on their planet of Pondgea. Breadwinners had a very interesting start as a show as it was given the chance to be a full fledge show based off of a KZbin short and a dream. Today, let's look at how this trail of breadcrumbs tells the story of the rise and sad fall of Breadwinners.

No matter what will ever happen, this Nicktoon will always hold a special place in my heart, even if I will ever begin to hate it like most of the people out there. It had a huge impact on my pre-teenage life, and without it I wouldn’t most likely be who I am today… Also, I’m gonna be honest here: This show DID have a potential to be a well-received cartoon, but Nickelodeon decided to waste it by filling it with plenty of unfunny butt/fart jokes, which basically ruined it. This makes me just sad…

[@sunspotmill1291]

Yeah, this is exactly how I feel about this show too. I liked this show's video game-inspired aesthetic and it does seem to have a small potential to be good and funny, but the constant butt/fart jokes (among other problems) just didn't do it for me. I considered it one of Nickelodeon's weakest cartoons, but not the worst Nicktoon ever. Shows like Planet Sheen, Fanboy and Chum Chum, and Butt Ugly Martins comes to mind.

[@donovan802]

I’m gonna be honest: no matter how many gross-out jokes there was, which is undoubtedly the main reason people bagged on it, this show had a LONG place in my heart. I was glad to give it a chance throughout all 40 episodes, and I feel like people need to acknowledge that not every show has to have a massive in-depth story spanning its entirety to be exciting. SpongeBob effectively excels at that, and when THAT wasn’t on, Breadwinners was my secondary mindless show - and I mean that in the nicest way possible - that I could watch without having to exert my brain so much. Being juvenile isn’t something to despise and, frankly, Robbie Damon (SwaySway) got tons of love for the “Jenny Quackles” song amongst millions of people, whether as a meme or for real. I knew a select group of people who loved it. Breadwinners is not my favorite show, let alone my favorite show of all time, but it’s not that bad at all.

This show gets way too much hate. I watched this show a ton throughout middle school. I always say this: Mid-2010s Nick (2014-16) was such an interesting and different era for the network. From animated shows like Breadwinners to unique live-action projects like Make It Pop.

[@UltimateInkling]

Yea its not the best show ive ever watch but its pretty solid to me at least.

[@kootunesscrewy]

Yeah. I've seen worse Nicktoons than this. Monsters vs. Aliens (TV series), Pre-School Daze, Rabbids Invasion.... *The Loud House* (the show that killed alot of entertaining Nicktoons)

[@FTChomp9980]

@Danaya T I agree with this strongly. Modern Nick just feels way to corporate and out of touch with fans.

[@PapaLuge]

I was genuinely convinced this show never had a rise, i remember it being hated the second it aired

[@poweroffriendship2.0]

The character designs of the _Breadwinners_ looks odd. The protagonists supposed to be ducks (hence the idea of "ducks eat breads"), but they look like frogs at first glance. *Advice:* Bread can be unhealthy for ducks. If you're looking for something to feed the ducks in the park with, try some alternatives like grapes, rolled oats, peas, or frozen corn.

[@rimfire8217]

Cheerios

[@AuraOfANobody]

Additional advice: Be aware of the status of avian flu where you live, and if you're in an area with a spike of it, try to avoid feeding the birds if you can help it! Especially with the outbreak this year, the flocking and crowding from birds being fed can lead to a rise in infections, which puts them at an increased risk of sickness and death from it, not to mention the potential for getting people and pets visiting the parks sick, too. We've lost a good 20 or so birds in my town alone in the past month and a half or so, and those are just the big standout ones people have noticed and reported - It's hard to say how many haven't been noticed or ended up getting eaten by another animal or washed out to sea instead :') Even though a lot of the reporting has been about its impact on poultry, they're not the only ones being impacted; the wild waterfowl, ducks and geese and such, are getting hit pretty hard by it around here, and it's capable of spreading to mammals that interact with them, too. There's even been an increased number of seal strandings around here this year, several of which ended up testing positive, and based on the positivity rate and the history of avian flu's variations causing problems for marine mammals, it's suspected it's not just a coincidence. Do your best to be safe and responsible when interacting with wildlife, for your and their sakes!

[@kootunesscrewy]

Now that you've mentioned that, Harvey, when I first seen him, does look like molerat/bug-looking creature than a bird.

I’m starting to realize a lot of the shows I loved when I was around 5-10 are heavily hated and while I understand why if still makes me sad in a weird way. This show, Sanjay and Craig, TTG, etc created some really happy fantasy memories for me that feel sorta tainted now.

I actually somewhat liked this show. I don't care for grossout humor, even The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy wouldn't get me to change my mind on that and I grew up loving that show, but I did like the art style and most of the characters had something charming about them. The bread puns were amusing at times and I especially liked the video game aspect of Bread Winners. Them powering up to solve a problem was sometimes the best part of the show. Shame they focused more on Buhdeuce's ass than on that concept.

As much hate as the show gets, it’ll always have a special place in my heart. Even before learning from this video that the episodes are built around the music, I sometimes noticed how rhythmic the show was. I still remember noticing how the characters would move or walk to the beat of the music, and that was kinda cool to me. I really appreciate you finding the good in a show that gets so much hate, and a show that I will always love despite the aspects that other people don’t really like. Plus the story of how the show came to be gives me a new appreciation of it

[@Joel-oy5zc]

I agree that knowing the story behind making each episode makes the episodes themselves more tolerable. It makes them fascinating to watch from a creator perspective. Otherwise, the show is a hard "meh". It's just like how the interdimensional cable episodes of Rick & Morty arent funny unless youre aware the entire thing is ad-libbed.

Honestly this was one of my favorite shows back then. Was it the best? Not at all, but I found the idea of something as weird as bread holding different powers and flavors that aren't normal to be a very interesting idea on paper.

[@finchvink]

Breadwinners is one of those shows that I oddly enjoyed despite its shortcomings. Interesting considering I am very pernickety on toilet humour and animals not looking like the animals they are supposed to be. It definitely fits the general climate of cartoons at the time but I find myself liking that kind of vibe... just silly fun cartoony antics! I'm happy you could find some enjoyment in it! (Also, don't feed ducks bread. Give them peas. They go nuts for peas.) It's interesting to see how online opinions on shows change within a small decade. When it comes out, the general negative criticisms are mostly from older people, and people who actually like it don't talk about it online by virtue of being too young to be on the net. So when that demographic grows up, they express fondness for it to balance out the criticism, I feel? Nostalgia is powerful! I always make this joke whenever this show comes up; do not confuse it with The Breadwinner.

[@AoiUsagiOtoko]

i've always liked this show, the animation and visual style are really appealing to me! the sound design being such a big part of the animation process is a really cool touch too, it really gives the show a unique sort of energy i feel like a LOT of shows like these tend to be a little unfairly maligned, but i'm the guy who can find some enjoyment in mega babies so my tastes are probably the outlier here 😅

Makes me wonder how whose reviewers who gave it extremely negative reviews felt, they acted almost as if the creators were inhuman, and got so anrgy about this show.

Honestly this show was ahead of its time. I loved it when I was younger and I just finished watching the whole show because I wanted to see if it was truly terrible or overhated. It ended up being the latter. I enjoyed every episode and genuinely laughed. I can admit I do have broken humor but there's some good stuff in there, plus it's so lively. I genuinely believe that if it was created more recently (2020-present) and was marketed towards teens it would have better ratings due to how many of the jokes truly just flew over my head as a kid.

The concept was really nice imo, and so was the pixel artstyle for alot of stuff in the show. I believe it really had potential

[@merskiskerski3485]

OML you just revived some memories

[@maxthecharacter1296]

I was already an adult when the show was around. But I never really hated it. Yeah, it was annoying, but I could see how it would appeal to younger viewers. I might've even loved it back when I was a kid. So I don't really think it deserved to be cancelled like that. Nick just needs to accept that not every show would break out immediately like the Loud House or SpongeBob. They take time before that happened. And speaking of Nick (and subsequently Viacom), their self-sabotage of this show and IP purchase - like any other network - is why I would be extremely cautious of lending my idea to any of them. Yeah, I get to keep the credit of creator. But what does it matter if the network can just pull the plug on your passion project whenever they want to? I have a good idea of a web comic series that I'm preparing to create later this year. If it somehow gets popular, I will definitely not want these networks to have so much sway over it, especially since this has been a few years in the making.

Oh yeah, Titmouse actually animated this show, too, that's a surprisingly little known fact on it.

you unlocked about a thousand memories i didnt even know i had

[@ksnappy101]

I like how the ads come on after the “we’ll be back with more breadwinners” new sub😁

[@t3chn0late]

this show had potential to be good but nickelodeon js threw it all away, which is really sad when you think about it, because i and many other people really enjoyed the show.

[@Kittenfox_55]

[@NatiNotActiveAnymore]

I don't know why I forgot this show existed so many times

[@zayo7171]

I’m gonna miss that show :(

[@miamartinez4224]

I absolutely loved this show when I was a kid, I loved the bread Ideas, video game references and the characters but what I didnt really like about it was the gross out jokes which I didn't even care about. When I saw people hating this show and it had to be forgotten it made me sad. I forgot about this show a while but then I remembered it and when back to bring back the nostalgia. I kept this "liking breadwinners" a secret cuz I didnt want to get made fun of but seeing positive things about this show in the comments really made me feel better. I will always love this show no matter what 🥰😁

[@CrackerStackerStudios]

agreed, same thing goes with Sanjay and Craig. The theme song is a banger too

[@AzariahRyan789]

I remember this show a while back. I did use to watch this show at one point, but I've kinda lost interest on it later on. This was around the era where we've been getting shows like this, Pig Goat Banana Cricket, Sanjay and Craig and Rabbids Invaison, Harvey Beaks. That I call the mid 2010s Era of Nick. I use to keep ranting about this show, but at this point, I've pretty much moved on from the show since I don't have NickToons anymore. Besides, there are even more problems that Nick is facing now. More NickToons continues to die off out of existence leaving SpongeBob (Still continues to air) and The Loud House (The show that was good from Seasons 1-3 but now sucks) roaming the network. Nickelodeon is already fading away as we speak.

[@kittydogDiamond]

I can’t believe today has been 10 years since breadwinners came out

[@Hydrophobiqe]

I loved this show as much as Sanjay and Craig when I was younger and it definitely has a special place in my heart like how Sanjay and Craig does, and if I remember correctly, is one of the cartoons that made me want to animate and make a living from art, so I have them to thank for that

[@Dboy-]

Yes its humor was weird alot, Yes it was a weird show in general. But overall, it has a place in my heart as a weird but overall neat show.

[@Spheriment]

I loved this show! Although I can see why it got low rankings.

[@NowImaKpopper]

I remember, when I was younger, I absolutely loved this show! It was one of my favorite Nickelodeon shows and I was always happy when it aired 😁

[@dollythepuppet5211]

This is sad to hear since I really liked this show back in 3rd grade, sure, the humor was a little stupid and gross at times but I just so happened to grow up with and get used to shows with that kind of humor. I’m in High School now and I still haven’t forgotten the show, I’ll always miss the good old days of the mid-2010s when I used cable before we got Roku tvs
