10 Failed cartoons from 1992.--- [ Were they Cancelled too soon? ]

[@zombiepicnic9683]

I'm really enjoying both the content and presentation of the channel. The CRT TV graphic is such a great way to show videos in the old 4:3 ratio. These lists of failed shows spark long dormant memories. The rundowns of each show are the perfect combo of comprehensive yet to the point. And the additions of promotional commercials, show lead ins (the ABC Claymation ones hit the nostalgia bullseye), and other things of the era are the cherry on top. Keep up the great work.

@zombiepicnic9683 appreciate it yeah its impossible to find clips, not in 4:3 aspects, and zoomed in looks horrible, so it makes sense to do something nostalgic. Those ABC bumpers are something you never forget, especially the cowboy. The youtube ad breaks always seem harsh cut, so it made sense to add those. More to come, thank you.

In the third Simpsons Halloween Special during Dial Z for Zombies, we see tombstones for both Fish Police and Capitol Critters in the Springfield pet cemetery. There's also a tombstone for Family Dog, which was an animated series going through a very troubled production at that time.

As I understand, Bonkers was in development first and the producers decided that if Bonkers was to be a cartoon star, he need to have a collection of shorts to show him at work. So they developed the Bonkers segments and took advantage of the Marsupilami license and created Totally Tasteless Videos as well to round out the series so they could make a go of the series Raw Toonage while the Bonkers project was delayed by changing the premise with the male companion as opposed to Miranda Wright.

As an avid 7 year old 1992 TV watcher, I very vaguely remember having watched Fish Police, My Little Pony Tales (highly objectionable as a boy…), the Fievel show, and the Super Dave show (mom thought it was stupid). Never heard of the rest of them. The “After these messages” clips brought a welcome wave of nostalgia.

[@canaisyoung3601]

I'm amazed there weren't proto-Bronies (Bronies that argue that the earlier MLP cartoons were better than MLP:FiM) back when My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic came out. The only interesting thing about FiM is the fandom that came from it and just how any piece of media can have weird and toxic followers to them, but also those who enjoy it and don't take it as seriously.

Amidst the twinkle of Christmas lights, Alex nervously handed Jake a carefully wrapped present. Jake's eyes lit up as he unwrapped the gift, revealing a vintage book of love poems. Moved, Jake pulled out a small box and shared, "I got you something too." Inside was a delicate silver ring. As they exchanged gifts, their hearts danced to a melody of acceptance and love. Later, under the mistletoe, they shared a tender kiss, celebrating not only the magic of the season but also the warmth of a love that transcends societal expectations. Christmas became a timeless chapter in their love story.

They made such a hype that the episode would be fully animated, that my family recorded it, and I watched it over and over again. I still have that original airing on a VHS tape somewhere complete with the commercials. I was happy when it got made into a show, and sad it was cancelled so fast.

[@nicroberts83]

If I remember Family Dog was completed in 1991 but they were so disappointed in it they didn’t show it for another 2 years and burned it off over the summer as they knew there would be no more. It explains why the video game came out when it did

About the Marsupilami, I'm Belgian and we were very disappointed by poor treatment to one of our iconic cartoons. Franquin (his creator) was so angry he sued Disney and won the argument. Disney went until the bitter end. Franquin died of old age but Disney lost anyways. The anime picturing Marsupilami aired in 2000 was way more faithful to the cartoon. Disney really wasted his homework, lied to Marsu productions and showed it's ugliest face. A great piece of art turned into a rubbish scrapbook. Marsupilami is still popular and Franquin is a legend. Not bad!

I actully remember Fish Police airing randomly one time on Cartoon Network in the early nineties, ca. 1997-1998. I imagine it was one of those foreign produced shows Cartoon Network UK got as part of some licensing deal (like Fat Dog Mendoza or Tabaluga) that they legally HAD to air, but which they only aired when most kids would be on their way to school, or would still be asleep. The kind of shows you only caught if you had one school day per week start an hour early for some reason, or if you are staying home sick.

I remember quite liking T-Rex. I also remember that Fish Police happened, though always thought it was a fever dream or that I got it mixed up with Dog City.

[@SonJWri]

Being 3-4 years old in 1992 I only remember Plucky Duck and Fievel but I’m probably just remembering the movies

[@majordbag2]

Oh all these shows I can only remember watching Super Dave as a kid and later seeing the first episode of Capital Critters as a teen on Cartoon network. I thought Super Dave was OK and was indifferent to Critters. I vaguely remember Raw Toonage for some reason after seeing this but barely, as in the opening feels like its something I might have seen. I can remember the theme song for the Plucky Duck show but since it was later reused I can't remember if I saw it on the original show first.

[@loringbush1455]

Yes I still remember watching The Plucky Ducky show Fivel goes west and Fish Police also Super Dave of course! I still have the entire series of Fish Police comic's done bye Marvel!

[@MrNetWraith]

Of all of these, I only recognize and remember (fondly) Adventures of T-Rex and Fievel's American Tails, but that's one of the prices you pay for being a rural Aussie kid in the 90s.

[@onionhat745]

It's pretty uncommon to recall some of these shows, even here in the US. I have never met another adult where I live that remembers T-Rex, and when I bring up the jazz angle, they assume I'm making it up.

[@wackko300]

I only saw some of these cartoons that I enjoyed growing up like: Fievel's American Tails, Plucky Duck, My Little Pony Tales, Raw Toonage and Capital Critters.

[@7Zealot]

Wow, I think The Adventures of T-Rex was buried somewhere in my subconscious, and popped out only when I watched this. I wonder what else is hiding in my brain somewhere, lol? Thanks for this trip down memory lane. Oh, and I remember my mom liked Fish Police. It...wasn't my favorite, though.

[@budderk1305]

Watched capitol critters as a european child and had no idea what was going on

[@chrisw5654]

@TheReviewStudios The video timestamps are in the wrong order starting with Number 6 where Captiol Criiters is shown but My Little Pony Tales is listed and continues where Number1 Twinkle The Dream Being is shown but Super Dave is listed.

[@TheReviewStudios]

Thanks for the heads up! And thank you for watching too!

[@AyeThatsHandsomePete]

The ones I remember were the Fievel and Super Dave cartoons. I didn’t really watch either.

[@espurious]

Fish Police had some cast. I've never seen any of these, so thanks!

[@TheReviewStudios]

Yes, it's a pretty amazing cast. Thanks for watching.

[@SugarRimmedglass]

I remember watching Fievel's American Tails and Raw Toonage.

[@tookool5616]

Adventures of T-Rex was real!?! Just brought me back!

[@galarxa]

Man i remember twinkle as “rayito” and the spanish intro was way harder than the english one

[@tigmil8116]

Ive been trying to remember the name of capitol criters for years. Like 20ish tbh. Thank you for existing.

[@gugurupurasudaikirai7620]

Found this video because I recently found Capitol Critters and was searching for content about it. Such a strange but interesting show that I never ran into back in 92. Plucky Duck has got to be one of the laziest shows ever made, just a rehash of Tiny Toons episodes already made disguised as an actual new show. My Little Pony Tales was actually kind of strangely mean spirited at times.

[@TheReviewStudios]

Hey, thanks for checking out the video and sharing.

[@stevegrez]

I yell "STUNT DOOOOOGGGS!" at least once a week

[@KadeemG61]

Fish Police, in my opinion, was way ahead of its time. I thought it was a bad idea for Hanna Barbera given the idea of a mature-themed animated series would seem like a good idea (up until South Park entered the picture in 1997) in a era where The Simpsons were all the rage and became a cult phenomenon on FOX and some short-lived shows failed to adapt and copy the humor and pop culture formula of what made Bart Simpson the inventor of 90’s cool characters. But Fish Police have a great solid cast including Tim Curry, John Ritter (RIP), Jonathan Winters, Ed Asner, Frank Welker, Buddy Hackett and guest characters voiced by the great Rob Paulson (Yakko from “Animaniacs” and Pinky from “Pinky and the Brain”) and Phil “The Phone Patrol” Hartman.

[@TheReviewStudios]

Fish Police was definitely before it's time. It's still funny now, and such an amazing voice cast.

[@keithtorgersen9664]

@KadeemG61, don’t forget about King of the Hill.

[@matane2465]

I think it was a bad idea to make a show/comic book about fish. Jim Henson's Dog City is basically the same concept but superior for the simple reason that people like dogs. Dogs are cute. Fish are not cute, fish are ugly. It's unappealing for the same reason Shark Tale was unappealing. It's the same reason people love dog videos and dogs are all over social media. No one makes fish videos.

[@KadeemG61]

@@matane2465there are some funny fish videos out there on KZbin.

[@micheljavert5923]

Around number five, I was starting to think that these were the less obscure entries, since I remembered all of them. Then you hit number one; I’d never even heard of it until this video😂

[@MxMoondoggie]

Stunt Dawgs had a pretty good theme tune, I used to end up watching it because it was on before a show I wanted to watch so I recall it well. Lot of these shows I remember being around but never really saw much of them.

[@IshtheStomach]

Stunt Dawgs was the morning cartoon i akways wonder if I'm the only one who remembers! Thank you!

[@TheReviewStudios]

You're welcome. I'm glad you enjoyed the video.

[@DawnLynnCat]

I remember Stunt Dawgs and Super Dave, I heard of My Little Pony Tales and Twinkle the Dream Being.

[@BM-wh5qk]

I loved Stunt Dawgs but it always seemed to be on too early for me to easily watch it. The theme song is easily in the Top 5 of 90s cartoon shows.

[@WaldoBagelTopper]

13:12 - Marcel Marsupilami - that obscure little cartoon is forever burned into my memory lol. I don't know why I remember this so vividly, but I remember hanging out with my high school sweetheart in like 2003. And I dont even know what we were talking about- All I remember is that the conversation led to me describing the cartoon. And I said "Not Bonkers, the little wildcat cop cartoon"... and she just rattled it out. "You mean Marcel Marsupilami". And I did a double take because I never heard that shit in my life. I just knew that cartoon as "the little cat that's not Bonkers" LMAO. But I thought she just made it up and I laughed because it just sounded funny. But no, she was just clutch and knew.

[@TheReviewStudios]

The theme song for Marsupilami has never left my memory. nice bit of info

[@Suerte13]

thats so cool I saw all of these. Life with no internet was hard and filled with so many reruns. Fawn Deer was hot.

[@jamesmoss3424]

I remember watching stunt dawgs when I was a kid and I wish that a second season would happen. 😀👍

[@Cosmicslopman]

Those abc commercial bumpers were so memorable.
