What Happened to Martin Mystery

[@exeacua]

My favorite part of Martin Mistery is how it presents a lots of mythological and folklore creatures with their own twist.

You spelled mythological wrong

Dog, this show was my jam, everyone else watched totally spies (as did I), but as popular as totally spies was, I was the only guy in my school a long time ago who was like "nah dog, totally spies is good, but Martin mystery is DA BOMB", I loved dark under tones, I loved the mythological side to it, every monster, every myth being brought to life, every moth man episode, every boogeyman episode (yea, bet you forgot about the boogeyman being an antagonist huh?), it all felt SOOO good, and that cross over was dope as hell for me cause I was the ONLY Martin mystery nerd so when that cross over dropped everyone came to me like "wait, you know who he is?", NOTHING beats that feeling.

[@rainfallnineninezeroone6241]

It didn’t actually fail because of it ratings, they were fairly good. I think it was because of the shows budget limitations that would explain why we never saw the show again.

[@merlith4650]

I mean it wasn't perfect, far from it. The writing was often horrendous and had practically no continuity. There are no character arcs and pretty much everything is isolated to episodes, where character traits or quirks will be introduced to be the "gimmick" of a particular episode and abandoned in the next. Not to mention the inconsistency in what characters can't or can do, doing superhuman ninja flips one second only to stumble on a branch and be all "help i can't get up" the next second. Which is fine when you are a kid, but it certainly makes it a harder watch as an adult. Which makes it pale in comparisment to more well-written shows like Avatar, or even a different Jetix example like Oban Star Racers The writing is actually frustrating at times as the writers actively undo character development and plot progression so that they can "reset" the show back to it's starting premise for the next episodic content. Like Jenny getting her memory wiped, or Martin's "perfect match" girlfriend who's relationship was built up through a 2-part episode, only for the writers to completely contradict her established character and throw all that away, by having her break up with Martin off-screen over the cellphone for the dumbest reason. Characters aren't actually allowed to mature or change, because they have to continuously fit the role of the stereotype they were written to be. The show could also have greatly benefited from having an overarching and consequential villain, and a more interesting weapon/gadget for the main characters. Even as a kid i thought the watch was kinda boring. It was one of my favourite shows as a kid and still is primarily because of the incredible and darker art style, animation and the premise of paranormal investigation. You are always excited to see what new creative monster they were going to face.

I think I might have to disagree on everything, I did like Totally Spies a lot but Martin Mystery was next level. Actually binging it right now and damn how forgot how good this looks

Also, I just loved that opening for some reason? I always made sure that I sat down just to listen to it. It was eerie in a good way, and that's coming from someone who hates horror movies. Not that I'd call this horror, but maybe more thriller? I take horror better in an animated medium, honestly, and when it's more light-hearted like this, I just enjoy it all the more.

[@cosmok-1367]

As a girl, i favor Martin Mystery more because at least they didn't have the stereotypes that Totally Spies did. The girls seemed to have too much in common and there wasn't anything that really set them apart. They liked the same things that people believed girls loved to do in the early 2000's. Shopping, boys, and not to mention the whole fetish thing that came with the show. I wouldn't say TS was a bad show, I thought it was okay at least. But I preferred MM because the characters were more fleshed out, I liked the idea of monsters and myths over the typical evil bad guy or organisation wanting to rule the world through for some unjust reason. Overall, it had more of a concept of mystery that not many kids would be into, but yet it really appealed. I mean, let's face it, the only reason that guys watched TS was because of the girls. The boys either wanted to date the girls or they wanted to be like the spies.

[@carlottajohns8691]

Cosmo K-13 I agree. Martin mystery is better than totally spies since the characters are better and fleshed out, they have creative stories and storylines, dark and mystery creepy atmosphere etc. totally spies on the other hand wasn’t that great the girls were too streotypical, shallow, obnoxious, and annoying and totally spies is very unoriginal show all they talk about is boy, boys, boys, they also talk about boys in missions too and the villians were generic and not threatening at all. Martin Mystery on the other hand is very original, the characters are great, the premise is creative and original, the villians are actually threatening and scary and plus the two Parters like day of the shadows for example were awesome! Totally spies is just garbage!

[@cosmok-1367]

Carlotta Johns you got a point. I mean, not to dis on Totally Spies, if you like the show fine. But in terms of flaws, that show had more than Martin Mystery. It’s a shame MM only had three seasons. I don’t know how many seasons TS had... but I’m sure it was a lot more. I think there was also another spin off of that where there were four kids that became spies but I don’t remember the name. Though I know the same company produced it.

[@carlottajohns8691]

Cosmo K-13 oh u mean the spinoff about 4 kids who are spies u mean the amazing spiez to be honest I watch that show it wasn’t that great either it’s already as bad as totally spies because the kids in amazing spiez are streotypical and has little to no development at all just like totally spies. I’ll be Honest with u the only marathon production show I liked is Martin Mystery because liked u said in the comment below it doesn’t have the stereotypes like totally spies or amazing spiez did. And by the way do u have a cartoon crush on Martin from Martin Mystery.

To be fair, the cross over episode look more vibrant probably because it was made at least 4 years after the last season of Martin Mystery. I think the real problem was that they run out of ideas. The season 2 two last episodes feel like a grand finally, the show could had stopped there. The season 3 finally is really odd and doesn't add up to season 2 finally. I think the stories of the comics where to hard to make kid friendly and they put their beth on totally spies and the Galactic Academy... Or something like that.

I liked both shows, but Martin Mystery was the best. To me they had the supernatural appeal that sent them all over. And sure Totally Spies did travel a lot too, but to me they actually had the same formula of always at school then whooshed away on a mission, kick some butt then back home. At least you got a better story from Martin with the folklore, meaning they couldn't kill things the exact same way. Plus them getting vacuumed up made the point of them being secret spies stupid since their cover was blown pretty much every episode. Still love them both, but if I wanted a reboot it'll have to be Martin Mystery for sure. Also just where did you binge watch the episodes? Can't seem to find an english dub online.

Used to be so in love with Martin Mystery, especially cause I loved horror and thought this was fun. I didn’t realize until now that Totally Spies was out first, thought it was the other way around for a long time. Guess I’ll try revisit Martin Mystery soon

[@lunnalocca9376]

Thank you for making this video. Horror/ Sci Fi/ and mystery is everything I grew up on. I of course I love totally spies but I liked Marvin mystery more because it was right up my alley. I wanted to see more horror cartoons growing up. Now that I’m an adult if it’s not horror I don’t want it lol

Yessssss

[@zies3196]

I liked both t. Spies and martin mystery. They full of actions and exciting stories. Martin mystery could make new episodes or a comeback. Its going to be a boom

[@kakakzarra9450]

I love Martin Mystery more then totally spies cause I do wish to have brother ,for once my siblings always slam the door at my face......sure fun to have brother on my own

[@ahmadpearson5543]

I assume that Martin and Diana finally graduated from Torrington academy and Diana quit the center for college Java remains at Torrington working as a cafeteria worker and Martin works for the center full time.

[@heroeus8173]

More like java went back to the center in another division The job at the cafeteria was a cover Diana might have got a promotion for an indoor job at the center or she did a pause while entering the college Martin sure is a full timer

I think a problem with this series is that they didn’t have a catchy song like totally spies. I know this song to this day, soo....

I miss this series. I still have a big crush on Martin...and it's next to impossible to find this series on physical copy

[@drewadams3498]

The fact that this show never got a proper English DVD release is a true shame

[@breezyhillproductions349]

Exactly. However, FYI there's and entire play list of the episodes on KZbin. They've been up for years and it doesn't seem like they've ever been taken down. Maybe Marathon just doesn't care.

[@rainfallnineninezeroone6241]

I’m still confused about Marathon are they really dead or are they still around in a different shape or form?

[@Darken631]

By the way Bonelli in Italy is THE Italian comic publisher. Dylan Dog, Martyn Mystere (Martin Mystery original name), Nathan Never, Zagor, Tex were all best selling comics and some are still published to this day after decades. Over here Martin Mystere is far more recognized as "that comic from Bonelli". It's really interesting to see a switched perspective honestly.

[@Darken631]

Just a correction though: Martin Mistery is a 1983 comic and is still published today.

[@MarbleOceans]

All I remember about this show is that- like Totally Spies- I blame it for my gay awakening because I always had the biggest crush on Diana like I did with Sam....

I found out that there was a Happy Meal tie in for the show in France back in 2007 and they made a U-Watch toy that's pretty much the ONLY time it's even been made in merch form in existence.

I love Martin Mystery it’s a really good show. . I’ll be honest with u about totally spies even though girl power shows were really good like sailor moon, Kim possible. But to be honest while totally spies are decent not my favorite, not great. the girls especially Sam, clover and alex in that show were too stereotypical, boy obsessed, obnoxious, and girly in my taste and whenever they said like ‘whatever’, or something like that it gets irritating fast not all girls are like that. And the villains in totally spies were not that interesting/threatening in the least bit just generic. The only tolerable character in totally spies is jerry. To be honest I prefer Martin Mystery over totally spies in my opinion. Because Martin Mystery has better characters, better villains that are actually threatening etc

[@ChiOgam]

Just yesterday I was searching on KZbin looking for videos on what happened to Martin Mystery. Thank you for coming to my aid.

[@abthedragon4921]

I loved Martin Mystery as a kid. I actually never got into totally spies because I just preferred the former. This may just be nostalgia talking but I personally think Martin mystery is the better series.

[@Ren_Davis0531]

I’m happy I saw this in my recommendeds. I used to watch this show all the time, but I had completely forgot about it until just now. I never forgot Totally Spies and even went back to watch a few episodes, but Martin just fell out of my memory. Thanks for the reminder!

[@wyattpeterson6286]

This show represents my childhood, full of nostalgia and no need for "sensitivity", just great shows that help forget your life's problems. I wish they would bring this show back, along with others, not going to say which ones.

[@kaytlinjustis5643]

Honestly, I liked them both at the same time. I don't have Cartoon Network - haven't had it since I was really little and only saw Totally Spies at least a few times (on vacation). I don't remember how I found out about Martin Mystery, but I enjoy it because of it's futuristic, Scooby Doo vibe with REAL monsters! I liked Totally Spies because I love travel, and they showed the girls all over the world - same with Martin Mystery, and I loved the idea of teenage spies when I was eight and managed to grow up with them when I found the series online in high school. Like you mentioned in the video, Martin Mystery can grow up with you and STILL be enjoyable. I found the two shows on-par with each other and was disappointed they couldn't produce another season of MM. Because 'not enough boys watched it'? What about the GIRLS that LOVE this kind of thing? It might've scared me if I saw it when I was six, but I would've STILL watched it! To be truthful, the sixth season of Totally Spies was kinda horrendous compared to the first five; almost like the show downplayed everything for the sake of five year olds watching it! You get even weirder cases, and it doesn't follow the end of the fifth season, like they're trying to make an alternate timeline that makes VERY LITTLE sense! Great video, by the way! ^^

[@RantyCat]

It hits right in the nostalgia feels.. Man, I really wanted more seasons.

When stumbled on Martyn Mystery on TV It was at the end of its series. I honestly thought that Diana was the main character, because the tone just somehow reminded me of Totally Spies. It was the only thing that got me to watch the entire series.

[@Igorcastrochucre]

I remember that show, and whoa boy, Martin's Johnny Bravo impression would not fly today.

[@jeremiahking2858]

Martin Mystery will forever be my favorite show from when i was a kid. I grew up in the Northeastern US, and we used to get Canadian tv stations', and MM was on one of them. NOTHING was better then being stuck inside during a dreary Northeastern winter and watching Martin Mystery with hot chocolate and a blanket, dreaming of doing what he was doing. However...nothing was worse when all of the sudden, Martin Mystery wasn't around anymore, and i didn't know why. I had no explanation, no closure. As i got older, i learned that shows' just get cancelled sometimes', and i realised that's just what it was, and the show faded to the back of my mind. Fast forward, and i also learned that no one i know watched it as a kid, or even knows what it is. I'm glad that i was lucky enough to have seen Martin Mystery, and the fact that i seem to be the lone watcher where i'm from...it makes it that much more special. Thank you for the video, it brought back a lot of memories'!
