Beyond Anime: The Story of Cowboy Bebop
Not many shows can stand the test of time but also continue to present an incredible number of interpretations long past their conclusion. Cowboy Bebop is such a show, and it is uniquely presented with such a wonderful pairing of dramatic and humorous narrative with an equally exciting soundtrack of space jazz that has made it a calling card that many have gone back to, time and time again, for inspiration and reflection.
But how does a show do this? How can it change people’s perceptions while, in reality, the episodes themselves cannot change?

What is Cowboy Bebop?
Cowboy Bebop is a Japanese neo-noir space Western anime television series which aired on TV Tokyo and Wowow from 1998 to 1999. It was created and animated by Sunrise, led by a production team of director Shinichirō Watanabe, screenwriter Keiko Nobumoto, character designer Toshihiro Kawamoto, mechanical designer Kimitoshi Yamane, and composer Yoko Kanno, who are collectively billed as Hajime Yatate.
The series, which ran for twenty-six episodes (dubbed "sessions"), is set in the year 2071, and follows the lives of a traveling bounty-hunting crew aboard a spaceship, the Bebop. Although it incorporates a wide variety of genres, the series draws most heavily from science fiction, Western, and noir films. Its most prominent themes are existential boredom, loneliness, and the inability to escape one's past.
The series was dubbed into English by Animaze and ZRO Limit Productions, and was originally licensed in North America by Bandai Entertainment (and is now licensed by Crunchyroll) and in Britain by Beez Entertainment (now by Anime Limited); Madman Entertainment owns the license in Australia and New Zealand. In 2001, it became the first anime title to be broadcast on Adult Swim.
Cowboy Bebop has been hailed as one of the best animated television series of all time. It was a critical and commercial success both in Japanese and international markets, most notably in the United States. It garnered several major anime and science-fiction awards upon its release, and received acclaim from critics and audiences for its style, characters, story, voice acting, animation, and soundtrack. The English dub was particularly lauded and is regarded as one of the best anime English dubs. Credited with helping to introduce anime to a new wave of Western viewers in the early 2000s, Cowboy Bebop has also been called a gateway series for anime as a whole.

Rediscovering '24': The Case for Reviving Jack Bauer

There have been a lot of shows and movies rebooted over the years, but there remains one series in particular that has, sadly, never been brought back to life, and that is 24. Hands down, one of the most action-packed television dramas of the 21st century. It truly pains me to see a show like 24 just disappear from almost all mainstream relevance in today’s current streaming climate. This is a ...
Why Does The Bear Feel So Tense?

When I think about the TV show The Bear, only one word comes to mind: chaos. This is a show that thrives on creating chaos and dealing with the consequences that occur as a result. But what about this kind of chaos makes it so interesting to watch? More importantly, how does it create such chaos, and does it relate to chaos theory? Thank you to my incredible Patreons for continuing to support t...
Peak Jazz - Listening to Cowboy Bebop's Epic Soundtrack
zhlédnutí 556Před měsícem
I’ve watched a lot of TV shows, but none have had a soundtrack so spectacular, so wonderfully whimsical, and so genuinely creative than Cowboy Bebop. This is a soundtrack to an anime that not only matches it in terms of quality but that, in my view, could potentially be one of the all-time great jazz albums. For someone who normally does not enjoy the unconventionality of the jazz genre, this i...

Taylor Swift is one of the most successful music artists in the history of the music industry.

Anton Chigur is the scariest man in cinematic history. He’s a character that has been so unnerving for me to watch because I don’t think I’ve seen anyone else so formidable and realistic while also being genuinely intimidating. Every scene he has in No Country for Old Men only builds upon his terrifying demeanour, which at first slowly draws you into his sick and twisted mind before ramping up ...
Rebel Moon: Make Zack Snyder Stop

Zack Snyder might be a good director, but he is not a good storyteller. Now, of course, the definition of what makes a good director can be argued in semantics, and whether or not being responsible for the story falls under a director or writer’s responsibility is up for debate. But in any case, what doesn’t change is the fact that someone who has a good eye for visuals might not necessarily ha...

In many movies, there are scenes where two characters are required to talk to each other, and often it’s because someone wants something from the other. Usually, this means that someone needs to win the scene. They need to walk away with something. And even if they don’t, the other person does, and it tells us something about the story to move on. Winning means everything because without it, th...

Of course, with anything so original and popular, there’s a...

You really like that phrase "elephant in the room"
I was in year 10 when this came out (I went to high school in Melbourne, Australia). Oh man. "Puck you Miss" was inescapable.
always like this guy's stuff. a funny man
Patrice is my little sister's name
I’ve realize that ever since I was 18 that entertainment has slowly becoming bad. No it does nothing with the 9/11 atrscks in the USA. That TV got so bad during the Streamkng boom around 10 years ago. Cable TV had to compete yet lost to streamkng. Streamkng slowly made too many cuts aroubd corners, cancelling shows, and removing their best material as time went on, they increased the prices, and added too many commercials.
Was a nice touch using creep at the end. Especially after his big spiel on the song and how white people connect with it.
My favorite part about these references that separates them from a lot of similar homages is the detail and effort put into making these shots and graphics as accurate as possible for a gag. Even super small things like the texture of the typography in the My Dinner With Andre and Hackers bits or the entirety of stuff like the Daredevil and Goldeneye 64 bits. I just love that Matt and Jay's comedy extends to the visual craft as well.
Season 1: Some edgelord who read Nietzsche and thinks he's deep spouts off a bunch of empty pessimism that sounds fancy but is only interesting because we know his character realizes he's been full of shit by the seasons end Season 3: Shit actual cops talk about while oblivious to their own role in a (for each of them, intimate) colonial context
Errrm, then explain why Koala man sucks ASS, dude. It's like season 30 of family guy right off the bat first episode.
I never knew this comic earlier in life. I just saw this video and learned about him for hte first time. I feel like I missed out on 1 of the greatest comics to ever live. His views are amazing and how he engaged with his jokes and how he tried to make change. This was a great video thanks for opening me up to an amazing new comic to me but sad I missed him during his actual time.
Of all the ways to 'introduce me' to this... It was 'teesside tintin' dub.
But it had lots of filler haha 😅 the kim plot in season 2, sherry plot in season 3 etc
Love 24
TPB is a absolute classic. This show will never get old and I could watch it 20 more times lol
Season 4 was way better than any other seasons. 5 stars for making it interesting.
What was the point of a mixed couple ? Has zero relevance to what you’re talking about !
It’s about their difficulties in choosing a title to find?
Hated? That’s not true. Why whom?
5:00 The Jester’s privilege.
Patrice the 🐐
To paraphrase pro era “those who know DOOM know DOOM it wouldn’t be him if he was mainstream”
This video is horrifying to me. People actually talking about the "philosophy" of comedians!! This civilization is truly doomed. Their jokers are their philosophers now. Instead listening to the clown for laughter and a timeout of daily troubles, they listen to them looking for wisdom and knowledge delivered in a funny way. Wow
This is my favorite TV show. It is so peak absurd.
Patrice is my number 1 cause he had a philosophical point of view. Truthful to the bone with a comedy effect. Man was pure genius.
Patrice O'Neal said a joke about a short lady who got mad if you don't let her clean your hotel room, and thats what my mother do, housekeeping, as soon as she heard the joke she cried laughing. And to this day is our favorite joke. People nowadays are similar to wet paper. P. O'Neal was and will always be one of the greats.
It's just a joke MAN!..LIGHTEN UP! FK!! Looks like he went on talk shows that had stupid hosts.
Stand-up comedy is such a wild world. I've never felt so much rubber-banding emotionally in any other artform. I think it is humanity at its deepest most vulnerable core. And also at its most enlightened and refreshing. It's so hard to explain, but I respect anyone who gives it a shot. Succeed or fail.
This was brilliant. I miss Patrice O'Neal. I wonder how his jokes and viewpoints would have been perceived and if he may have seen things differently in 2024. R.i.p. A huge talent for the world to have lost.
Bro he’s one of the most loved comedians of all time what the fuck are you talking about
Brother I love you!❤️ 👍not feeling gay🤣😂
😘
Super funny guy rip
He wasn't offensive. People choose to be offended.
Anybody knows the name of the show at 40:09? I would love to watch Patrice talking truth to those cougars lol!
Patrice truly has a legacy. All of my children will know about him- an all timer in comedy and there’s possibly no death more poorly timed
The guy rubbing his face saying when are we going to see something else that relates to me LMFAO😂
9:07. Wtf is "hate speech"? Is that when you talk about something you dont like because probably almost EVERYBODY DOES THAT.
I would rather get RAPED than blown up or partially blown up or shot. Folks need to watch the motherfucking 'One' video by Metallica.
Bring jack back#
I never met Patrice, but he is like a father figure to me.
Patrice was 4-6 years from being the the internet/podcasting goat.
I shut it off fucking immediately when the “nonbinary” lesbian sex film was discussed.
If Patrice was here with us today the world would be a different place he would be one of those people that you cannot cancel because it has never been about the money for him always been about his truth
He is the real Peter Griffin
Patrice was good Hes not the most hated, …. DL Hughley is the most Hated… D L is sooo racist
This season took the best elements of Season 1 and made it all the worse.
damn RIP. whats the name of the song at the end
The real hero here is the American media, on which Patrice O'Neal was given countless opportunities to freely express himself (as evidenced by the various clips used in this video).
The Tintin cartoon is so underrated so when ever I want to watch a good cartoon I go right to the Tintin cartoon great video 😁👍
The man was a brilliant and bold comedian. Something that is lacking in modern comedy these days.
I remember when I was introduced to this Album n college fall 2011 I transferred from one school to another cuz of a coaching change and my teammate from queens put me on…then I asked my homeboy who spit if he was hip to em and he thought doom was jus a producer had no idea he rhymed..each one teach one at its finest
