FUN FACT: Zach (The voice of charlie) actually talks like that. its his normal voice (same for pim, actually) and he says that he sounds like that because when he was young he had been in a terrible car accident, but also he said that wasnt true.
love the series
Zach is a top tier gaslighter, the real reason is a super deviated septum, he said he had the chance to get it fixed but his voice had grown on him and he didn't want to lose it's uniqueness.
Gotta love Zach’s gaslighting who knows if it’s true 💀

What I think is funny is that Desmond is holding a Smith & Wesson Model 500 to his head. That is a SUPER over powered weapon. He wasn't just ready to kill himself. He was ready to paint that entire house with his thoughts
Why do you know this information
@@mauricegreen5321 because guns are cool
It’s basically a revolver that thinks it’s a rifle, and made it the problem of both whatever it’s pointed at AND your wrist.
Also holding that heavy ass cannon up to his head the entire day. Guy must have serious biceps.
Wait, where the hell did Desmond get a Smith n Wesson Bone Collector?
Fun Fact: the guy in the walls on the computer as well as the blibblies was voiced by the guy who plays Mike on Stranger Things
One of them is Mike and the other is his brother, don't know Wich is Wich tho
Wall guy is Mike
@@jibjibs9401 other way around, finn is bliblies
And Desmond is also played by Mike who starred in the hit movie "Never Been Kissed".
The actor name is Finn Wolfhard
Not sure if you noticed, but Pim is voiced by co-creator of the show Michael Cusack, who also voiced Mammon in Helluva Boss.
Yeah, and Zach voiced random background voices in that episode, like that shrill "YEAAAH BABY, YEAAH"
@@toxic_tomb1238 Or the random bird scream
P.S. Another popular youtuber, Mark M. of the Sick Animations channel voices the Boss!
He's also the creator of YOLO.
Look Morty I have a real gun now.
@@toxic_tomb1238"I KNEW IT. I KNEW IT"
"A show called Smiling Friends is 18+?"
Say you've never heard of Happy Tree Friends without saying you've never heard of Happy Tree Friends.
She should definitely do a reaction to that, not sure if youtube will be OK with it though.
What I like about Smiling Friends is that unlike Rick n Morty and Bojack who mostly have a cynical and nihilistic outlook in the end... Smiling Friends is like Fck that!!!! Let's make someone smile 👁️👄👁️
Which Is hilarious because absurdism and nihilism have the exact same source; The world is weird,inconvenient,absurd,cruel,etc.
Cheese life hack: I've never noticed about the hand oils thing because my cheese never goes uneaten for that long lmao
its bacteria/viruses and other micro shit on the hand that can make it spoil faster not oils lol
The cheese story alone made me a subscriber 😊❤
Buy small amounts of cheese. Live in Europe.
@@JoshSweetvale American here. I don't understand this concept. Wouldn't you run out of cheese?
@@RolandOnnaRiver Buy small amounts of cheese _often_ by living within a mile of a supermarket.
I'm so glad you're checking out this show. It's one of the best, funniest, most insane shows ever. And Fun Fact: Pim is voiced by the same guy as Mammon from Helluva Boss.
I never noticed that before.
18:00 Alicia really be like “Remember kids: don’t do school and stay in drugs!”
Zach was newgrounds meatcanyon waayy before hunter got on youtube
Marc M the boss's voice actor was both of them way before
If you've ever heard of Psychicpebbles, this is basically his big break increative collaboration on an adult swim show. There is a lot of creative forms of animation used for various bits.
I love zack , hes actually funny
Man Zach Hadel is a gem
@@ImmaLittlePip a true artist of this Generation
@@V15.12One could say.... ICONIC
@@Maxisamo1 hrmmm strokes beard , pulls out worm , eats it , yes i guess you could say that
Shout out to Mike Stoklasa of Red Letter media fame (The voice of Desmond)
Dude has a great and iconic voice lol
We thought the last of the brony herds went extinct many moons ago.
/)
Yeah Its straight up the mr plinkett voice
also, Desmonds room is pretty much Mikes room
Wish he did more of Mr Plinkett. Love coming back to his Ghostbusters 2016 review every now and then. It's iconic for me. Lol
With how big this show was, I'm surprised you haven't seen it before. I know you'll love it, it's absolutely wild lmao. But for as incredible and funny as the wild stuff is, the down to earth relatable moments are some of my favourite parts. The contrast between both of those is so good and makes both of them even funnier. Also fun fact, Pim shares a VA with Mammon from Helluva Boss
Can't wait for her to see the Gwimbly episode. Alicia's gonna laugh her ass off at the CEO.
Fun fact the voice of Charlie and one of the creators of Smiling Friend (Zach Hadel/Psychic Pebbles) is a youtube/Newgrounds animator and a lot of the show's references are stuff he's joked about on Oneyplays, Sleepy Cabin or his animated shorts like the breast feeding thing is a reference to an art gallery promo he made
Yup , the good old days
Zach my beautiful goblin goddess
Im getting sick of nobody knowing who PsychicPebbles is and they keep saying this looks like Meat Canyon. We would have no MeatCanyon without PsychicPebbles or OneyNG
facts, its a little sad
its not that deep calm down lmao
No fr it sucks so much because they are so influential to the animation community. Like they deserve so much more recognition.
@@SpaceSkelet0nn Just put respect on the people who laid the foundation. Pretty easy.
for reals lmao
Zach Hadel has actually been creating and animating weird freaks way before Meat Canyon.
Fun fact about the end music; it's called BROWN SMILE and half of the melody was made by randomly placing notes in the program that was used but it somehow came out coherent and it stuck XD.
Turns out short-term domapine rushes do nothing. Sometimes, you need to find purpose... in murdering something.
Desmond having a Smith & Wesson 500, an infamously impractical .50 revolver, is really funny. He could have picked any gun to do the job but he picked the most spectacularly over-the-top gun possible to make his head completely explode.
oh yeay ! I'm happy to see you check that, it's huh, unique but one of the best adult animation in recent years. Also you watched TOH ? did you reacted to it or just for you on your own time ? In any case I hope you enjoy it ! it's one of my favorite animated show ever ! up with AtLA !
Desmond is voiced my Mike Stoklasa of Red Letter Media, who basically played himself.
Alicia: "life is like drugs"
I think you should probably let someone else do the pep talks
Someone on Twitter when talking about Xavier the renegade angel show said that his coworker showed him this show at his place and the guy was convinced he wanted to murder him because the show was so unsettling
I feel like it might be the same thing
🎵I think that I'm gonna get murdered tonight.🎵

"I don't know anything about it"
Me: "Oh boy..."
What's funny is that most of the main cast and side characters are from Oneyplays, because all of them go WAAAAY back to the creation of Newgrounds. Yeah. Smiling Friends was made by a friend group from Newgrounds. Ricepirate ( Mick ) even was included despite at the time having beef with the best friend of co-creator Zach Hadel. ( Michael Cusack and Zach Hadel both claim to be co-creators rather than " I created it and he helped. " ) - Michael also has appeared on Oneyplays once or twice. While he's a great animator and great writer, he's not always the best at going off the cuff, so he's not as fond of being given chances to improv like Zach who you can give a three word script to and he'll give you a 3 page bit about his character being " World's Strongest Gamer "
Genuinely one of the funniest and most talented groups of friends I've seen on the internet. Should hear Chris when he was doing- I think a fundraiser he was playing piano freestyle and making up silly songs on the spot. I think it's " Silly Songs with Jeff " ( One of the guys who helped Tom Fulp make Newgrounds. )
After Smiling Friends S1, a lot more people were suddenly interested in Zach and Michael's ICONIC voices. Lyle Rath from Pregame Discharge does a ton of voices on Smiling Friends too, as well as Joshua Tomar, a career voice actor that at one point was in the English dub of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure.
It's crazy how a friend group of self proclaimed " Autistic guys that like creating stupid stuff. " - can be so dang talented.
You guest 8 the writer goes to 10 and then you guess 11 but the writer just goes "nah, he's doing pest control now"
I loved when Pim says "it's smilin' time" and turned into a big happy face sticker.
Soon, she'll meet Mr Frog.
And it WILL be his show.
There's a reason some of the show feels like a Meat Canyon animation. The creators of the show, Michael Cusack and Zach Hadel are old school internet animators that made a lot of similar stuff to Meat Canyon but predate him by well over a decade. Zach in particular is imo one of the funniest people on Earth. Zach Hadel is more commonly known by his CZcams/Newgrounds name, Psychicpebbles. You can still find most of his old animations on CZcams and Newgrounds too. He also is a regular guest on the CZcams channel Oney Plays, a let's play channel hosted by his long-time friend and former Newgrounds/CZcams animator Chris O'Neil AKA OneyNG. Pretty much everyone on Oney Play played a part in making this show, in fact, this entire show is basically just a giant collaboration between a ton of CZcams and Newgrounds creators. Even the creator of Newgrounds, Tom Fulp voices several side characters, like Pim's sister's boyfriend in this episode.
Also, this show is packed with references to jokes in Oney Plays. People have put together a few compilations showing them all off and I highly recommend checking them out after you finish the show. The Boss breastfeeding "his baby" is a direct reference to Zach's animation "Gremblo Art Show" and it was the first clip I saw of the show. Since episode 1 dropped on April Fool's day with no announcement leading up to it, I had no idea he was even working on a show, but as soon as I saw that clip I knew it had to be him behind it. He also voices like half of the characters in the show including Charlie. If you hear a weird, decrepit sounding voice, It's probably Zach, his range is kinda crazy. Anyways, I'm super happy that you're checking this show out, and just in time for Season 2 dropping on the 12th of this month too!
I highly, _highly_ suggest checking out Hellbenders for some of the early collaborative animation between Oney and PsychicPebbles.
It is absolutely unhinged.
👦"HeY LoOk! A talking tree!"
🌲"I can do a lot more than talk. (*Shlllhhhh*)

🌲_"Crawl into my hole and find out."_
Every episode of this show starts with at least 1 line of crack and varying amounts of LSD, especially the episode with the forest demon, who is not in a forest
Oh my gosh I can't believe I see the day Alicia reacted to Smilling Friends
Alicia: " I don't know anything about it"
Me: Oh, this is gonna be amazing.
This is my favorite show to come out in recent years, I know you two will love it.
Been loveing how Mike Stoklasa from Red Letter Media has been popping off in voice rolls the past few years from this and Ollie & Scoops.
30 is CCRAZY whole ass grandchildren at that point
I always love seeing people’s first reaction to meeting Desmond it is always a rainbow of reactions
yeah, Zach (psychicpebbles) been doing this style Wayy before meatcanyon
I love this show. The creators started with youtube animations over a decade ago
Watching Owl House pre-Smiling Friends is crazy XD
What's crazier: it was right after watching Thanks to Them and For the Future xD
@@dz1_randomviewah Bruh XD what's even the goal at that point? Intentional panic attack?
@@mattiekarwin3667 Azu knew it was doing numbers, and Alicia needed a breather (Owl House S3 does the emotional beatings very well).
They knew nothing else going in. xD
YOOO I absolutely need more of this, I'm so happy you reacted to this!!
I think my favorite detail is that Allen drops his weird voice quirk when he runs into someone weirder than him
YEEEEEEAAAAAAHHHHHHH BABY thats what ive been waiting for thats what its all about.
Wooooooooooooooooooooh
Yes! It's finally happening. Alicia reacts to Smiling Friends. The ultimate homage to animation.
This was the best reaction to this episode ever 😂 I especially loved how 5 minutes of it was you talking about your dad and your cheese 🧀 🤣 I was laughing so hard! I almost pissed myself! LMFAO
The creators worked in some animations in Newgrounds before this.
In case you were wondering, this was co created by Psychicpebbles, and he's essentially OG MeatCanyon.
I’ve been waiting my whole life for Alicia to watch Smiling Friends :)
"I can't stand that you're lying to me right now" AYOOOOO AINT NO WAY YOU GOT GASLIT OVER CHEESE bro I'm the same about cheese too I would've fucking freaked
YES OMG SMILING FRIENDS IS SO GOOD I CLICKED SO FAST, I LEGIT JUMPED FOR JOY WHEN THE NOTIFICATION POPPED UP
I'm loving how so many people are making reactions of Smiling Friends. This show definitely reminded me of Aqua Teen Hunger Force but this humor is up my alley.
Yeah this show is really something. The chaotic energy of the show comes together in a really enjoyable package.
Came to watch Alicia's horror at this magnificent show, learned some facts about cheese. As a fellow cheese enjoyer...this pleases me :)
I was so excited for this that I completely dropped everything I was doing to watch it, please continue 🙏
I like that we got the Alicia Cheese Lore
New "The amazing digital circus" ep just dropped!
I already posted my reaction to it homie
14:55 maybe 30 is ancient in the 1400s, but I don't think Alicia is that kind of rat
Btw it is now thought that rats weren't the cause of the black plague, but probably humans themselves. Also, medieval life expectancies were shorter than now, but not by as much as we usually think. The average age of death mathematically is around 30, but it's being offset by the high infant mortality rate, which is sad.
Happiness? I never touch the stuff.
When the friends are smiling 😊
That “Hello” sounded so genuine. Lmao
I love Smiling Friends its such a wild ride of a show. Can't wait for season 2
Out of all the reactions, this was something I did not expect. Get ready to watch the most autistic ADHD series. Season 2 is right around the corner.
"I watched Owl House before watching this-"
Where is it where is it WHERE IS IT ALICIA-
You do not know how much I ADORE Owl House, and you're my favorite Vtuber! You can't just tease me like that and then not have a video out already, it's cruel and unusual!
Dude I have the biggest smile on my face rn, I’ve been hoping you guys’d react to this show, it’s awesome
I want them to watch Xavier Renegade Angel so bad. Because it's another Adult Swim classic, that is so underrated
My favorite show on adult swim, and all done by some animators on newground. Can’t wait to see you react to the rest of the show.
This show is from the mind of Zach Hadel, AKA PsychicPebbles, who is a legendary NewGrounds and CZcams animator and one of the biggest inspirations for Meat Canyon's work.
When I go in vacation up to Minnesota (700+ miles away) we sometimes pass through grantsburg wi, and the Burnett Dairy Co-Op and I’ll spend almost a hundred dollars to stock up on great cheese with the rest of my family. Northwoods cheddar, and 2, 3, or 5 year aged cheddar, sometimes the 10 year aged caveman white cheddar, smoked string cheese, and anything else that catches my eye. Luckily my family are all good at not eating eachother’s nice cheese.
17:58 As a guy with caffiene and dopamine addiction, Alicia's "sure the joy of life is fleeting, but you can _always_ chase the next hit" is unironically the most motivational thing I've heard
best show currently airing
The cheese lore is majestic, truly a relatable story with ups and downs
Zach and the rest of Newgrounds ran so MeatCanyon could also run.
One step closer for her maybe discovering the mind numbing insanity that is Oneyplays
Man that was great hope we get more smiling friends reactions soon
And it keeps getting crazier! 🤣
Looking forward to the reactions. These are always a blast! Great pick, Azu!! 😁👍
the incredible smile on my face seeing this AND Amazing Digital Circus show up together, i feel like Desmond at the end of the episode...
I Really hope you continue with this! (i just read the description- FUCK YEAH! LOVE to see that!)
this show is insane but trust; it's got some GREAT laughs all the way through- the creator has been on CZcams for years and despite inspiring people to leave comments like a reddit mental patient about him; he's a good guy- Just a master of absurd comedy, i hope to see more of his show soon it's WILD
This was a delightful rollercoaster of horrified panic, breathless relief, and Rat Queen Alicia ranting about her precious cheese.
The answer to is life just momentary distractions is : no. You gain power to move on futher. You get the power from by having fun, having a purpose, looking for the next high, enjoying hard times if you like challanges or atleast the the result of overcoming things
I’m only just noticing that when the alien busts through the tv at the end, he’s speaking plain English, just with weirdly placed emphasis.
watched for the smiling friends, stayed for the yelling cheese story with father, thats content right there, subbed
The fact that you knew nothing going in made the reaction so much better imo. 😂
2:32
Mr Boss having a Reference to the classic Psychicpebbles animation _"You bit me"_
4:52
In Season 1 we had this gem: the _"Look Pim"_ meme
Now in Season 2, which Alicia hasn't gotten to yet, so all I'll say is _"Gwimbly"_
10:27
You don't Finger a girls cheese...
Wait that sounded weird, *_DON'T PUT YOUR FINGERS ON A SOMEONES CHEESE_*
13:05
Ahhh... Family, just great, you got the screaming red wine drinking mother, and a father that acts like he does soooooo much, saying he makes all the money _"I've been working in the bloody mines for 48 hours"_
Uhhhh... That job in this day and age, not a good Idea, not in any time period, but it sadly happened, that's not a nice job
No lie I am soo invested on the cheese story 😂 and enjoyed you two's reactions
having you say that zach and michael's animations are "like meatcanyon" makes me feel old.
wait alicia is 30. I'm 27. so no "being old" excuse. HOW DO YOU NOT KNOW PSYCHICPEBBLES AND MICHAEL CUSACK?
EGORAPTOR? ONEY? HELLO???
I'm not 30 wtf?
@@aliciaxdeath oh i thought that at 14:52 people were telling you that because you were 30
As Nux once said: “Adventure Time is good, happy drugs. Smiling Friends is bad, scary drugs.”
I knew what you and Azu were getting into with this series. I was not disappointed
I heard somewhere that Blue cheese culture was probably first from the feet of monks pressing their curd dry.
God damn, how I love that newgrounds animators are starting to infect main stream media. More.
desmond is my spirit animal
Lol that story about your dad gaslighting you over cheese had me cheesin'! XD 🧀
I saw this show for the first time the other week, and I was confused as fuck because the first episodes I ever saw were the April Fool's puppet variants.
I vibe with Alecia's cheese story. I don't want someone's grubby mits clawing at my cheese. You don't mess with someone else's cheese
Instantly filled with dopamine upon seeing the thumbnail good work
14:06 isn’t that a singer
Glad to see you reacting to Smiling Friends it's gonna be a wild ride.
Okay everyone. New task create a drawing Pim smiling while holding a bloody block of cheese....BAREHANDED! Props for the cheese argument too!
Hearing "no-name cheese" makes me picture cheese wrapped in plastic with no label just sitting in the grocery store.
Shoutout to Zach (PsychicPebbles) for getting his own show and getting approved to get season 2
The reaction that broke Alicia's prediction ability, I think the only other thing that could do it would be Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Would love to see a reaction anything Monty Python.
This show is chaotic good in the best ways possible.
Make sure to see the end entry of each episode
