    It's kind of insane to think back on just how astronomically popular Smosh was. Even by today's standards their fame was another level. Being able to get numerous movies plus this insane amount of shows, plus their games and merch? Smosh was an empire and its reach into other media is still far beyond even the most famous CZcamsrs now. As cringe as it has become, they are a founding block of CZcams and most creators even now can probably trace their influences back to Smosh.

    My roommate & I watched Oishi High School Battle back when we moved in together for a second time, we lived in a three bedroom apartment 2013-2014 but we barely spent time with each other. When the third person left, we downgraded to a two bedroom apartment & hung out far more, she introduced me to Oishi High School Battle & we binge watched the whole series together. I can still recall that late summer of 2014 when she cosplayed as Oishi to a con we went to together, nobody knew who she was & that's when we first learned about Five Nights at Freddy's & jumped off of bonding over Oishi to FNAF. Still, I won't forget that small point in time when the two of us watched it together, it's such a shame it has been removed because it's been enough years since I've seen it to forget a lot of what's happened, would be nice going back & watching it again & remember spending time with that friend given we don't talk anymore but I do miss her.

    As someone who still revisits Shut Up Cartoons somewhat often for the nostalgia, I’m glad Mark is actually pretty fair with them and admits when they are impressive for their time and as just free CZcams shows. By no means is any show perfect, but I think in comparison to what was on CZcams at the time and the fact these were regularly uploaded fully animated shorts, I think the better of the bunch are actually still pretty enjoyable till this day (well… besides Samurai Daycare…) I know it would have been much easier to just make fun of Shut Up Cartoons and nobody would have really questioned it- so I appreciate actually giving an honest opinion and giving the shows a chance.

    Alfred and Poe's "Heisen-bird" joke is the best joke ever made, it made me bawl on the floor crying and laughing. I showed my dad this joke and he had started erratically flipping and flopping on the floor, and despite the amazing humor of Alfred and Poe the animation of Alfred and Poe is just as, if not better than said animation. I find the animation and humor better than most tv shows today and as well as the other "Shut Up!" cartoons. But if you're a simpleton and do not get the joke Alfred is referencing the AMC show Breaking Bad, El Camino, and Better Call Saul, as they all include the character known as Heisenberg. The show revolves around a over-qualified high school chemistry teacher named Walter White who is played by Brian Cranston, during the first episode he gets cancer, and to afford treatment he must go into the meth business with his former student Jesse Pinkman played by Aaron Paul. In Conclusion, Alfred and Poe's "Heisen-bird" joke is hysterical joke that uses a reference to the hit AMC show Breaking Bad but FUCK SUPER SMOSH, Super Smosh plays a cliche topic and plays it to its most cliche resolution, most of the jokes are just "reference!" and if you don't get the reference the joke is terrible and even if you get said reference it's not a good joke. Anyway in conclusion well again, Alfred and Poe's "Heisen-bird" joke is hysterical joke that uses a reference to the hit AMC show Breaking Bad but FUCK SUPER SMOSH

    And now Ian & Anthony have bought back Smosh \0/
    Though this definitely won't be coming back. I think it's pretty common knowledge nowadays that Shut Up Cartoons was a product of the company that owned Smosh and not the duo themselves, more-so something they were contractually obligated to pursue
    The sad truth is that everything here accredited to Smosh or to Ian & Anthony just wasn't a choice they made, Smosh's behind the scenes decisions were largely in the control of the Parent Company because of how things played out. It really is sad what Defy Media did to the duo and it's even worse how they just left a bunch of people unemployed afterwards after scamming so many. It's great that the company as a whole was saved by Rhett and Link and even better that now after over a decade the duo themselves own the company and have full creative control again.

    One of the biggest mysteries of my whole childhood was the status of an unreleased Shut Up Cartoon called Comical Spill. There was like, 5 seconds of footage of it in the Shut Up Cartoons announcement trailer, and like, nothing else seems to exist of it online.

    I didn't watch most of these but God, going through all these remind me just how charming early CZcams animation was. Everyone was just a bunch of amateurs yet Smosh paid them to produce content. There were no high expectations and everyone just made what they thought was funny or cool. I love how far we've come, but it's nice to go back and see how it all started and see how many of them kicked off people's careers. Great video.

    It seems like so long ago when i last watched Smosh, respect to them as they were the first channel (to my knowledge) to be so experimental, before CZcams was as business oriented as they are today.
    I only remember Oishi High School and Smosh Babies but not alot of people remember SU cartoons.

    I met Zach before in a parking lot of a Grocery Store, he actually went up to my window to talk to me. He told me he noticed that I was talking on the phone and was wondering if I was talking about him, I kindly told him no but that I loved his animations and his little lets plays, he seemed very flattered even chuckled a few times, he wanted it to be clear that he's not naturally like how he is when he's doing comedy. I told him that I was aware and that I loved his style of humor.
    He would occasionally ask me about what I was saying on the phone and if it related to him and how I perceive his style of humor, I confirmed that it was nothing about him and he just insisted that I don't have to lie about anything and that he wouldn't get offended. I kept assuring him that my phone call had nothing to do with talking about him and he would just nod his head and say, "Okay, ah okay, I see".
    Whenever we're just about to talk about something else he would bring up my phone call again saying things like, "Listen man, I trust that you weren't talking bad about me on your cellphone, but I swear -- this could just be me, but... I could swear you were looking at me while you were on the phone and I saw you chuckle.. but you know... it could just be me thinking things, I sorta have OCD and it's really hard to control, so could I just check out the recent calls and maybe any texts?"
    I'm personally a private guy when it comes to my phone, I didn't want to say no to Zach, I'd try to change the subject and he'd even get more antsy, saying things like, "Okay man... look, I get that you don't want anyone on your phone, I get it, but it makes me feel like you're trying to hide something from me, I mean man... look, I promise not to look at your pictures or anything, I'm just... come on, dude... I'll draw you a hellbender if you let me just look."
    I was getting a bit uncomfortable, and Zach was starting to get red and sweated bullets, he'd keep tapping on my windshield with his palm when he would say, "I swear" "look" and other things, I just relented and handed him the phone. He was having trouble turning it on while saying, "How the... uhh... how the fuck do you get this thing on, just real quick man..." Thankfully the phone was dead and he honestly handed it back to me and said, "I know by looking in your eyes that you are no liar, for 20 years I was lost and I honestly think that Jesus lifted my life around and brought me to a good man like you, you're an honest guy, I respect that."
    I just smiled and nodded. As he's wiping his nose and sniffling, a man and woman walk by and he quickly turns around and ask them, "Hey who are you? What are you doing??!" The guy replied with "what?" and Zach was asking them if they know me, I told him I didn't know them, he just glanced at me and went right back to staring them down, practically ignoring me. The couple gave him a weird look and shook their head and said "Uh..no". Zach just laughed and said, "Ahh okay, just checking, you never know with what's happening in this world today, ha ha! Hey do you both think my friend here is a trusting soul? I tell you he's got Jesus in his heart man!" The couple were weirded out and walked off. All of a sudden Zach just got enraged at the two walking away and screamed, "WELL YOU DON'T GOTTA BE A FUCKING DICK" "DON'T TEST ME MOTHERFUCKER, I'M NOT IN THE MOOD."
    I swear to god I was getting terrified and at that moment Zach started to adjust his pants and I saw a gun sticking out of his waistband, I thought I was going to die, honestly. What was the most scariest moment is that he noticed me looking at his gun, he turned around and gave me a cheeky smile and said, "Don't worry about it my man, I have it on me for self defense, I want.. nah I dare some motherfucker start shit with me." This was all in 10 minutes but felt like hours.
    He then went on a tirade about the movie fast and furious or some shit, I was too busy preparing for the moment this psychotic fuck planting a bullet in my brain, so I went along with anything he said, at the end he asked me, "Hey man, by the way I'm not doing so good financially could you give me some money so I could probably walk to a Circle K to get a fountain drink?" I took out my wallet and offered 5 dollars and asked him if that was good enough. He seemed genuinely pleased and said, "Oh hell yeah man! That's perfect! I knew Jesus brought me here for a reason, you gave something to me now I give something back to you." That's when Zach started reading off passages from the bible and made comparisons with the passages he read and some scenes from the fast and furious.
    When we said our goodbyes I sobbed for a good hour thanking the lord that this maniac didn't harm me, I love his cartoons but meeting the man in person was terrifying, I look back on this encounter as a learning experience and I became a stronger person for it.

    This is the first time I've ever heard of Shut Up Cartoons and honestly I'm glad I watched this video :) Because it led me to God Squad which happens to be right up my alley. An interesting art style, large cast of characters, really good voice actors, a bit of crude humor but not to the point of taking away from the story, a mystery, little bit of violence, and to tie it all together, poking fun at religious figures. It reminded me a lot of Clone High, and I think it's a good series if you're in the target demographic. Also I loved the video and will be checking out more of your content :) I hope whoever's reading this has a good day.

    (Also, the reason as to why the pacing of both With Zombies and An OK Place To Eat was so segmented is because they were first made as full pilots that were segmented into 5/10 parts when airing on Shut Up Cartoons)

    I remember when this channel came out, I was a huge smosh fan when I was little. Seeing the announcement got me excited. I used to watch every cartoon that came out. I personally didn't like smosh babies. Looking back on the shows as an adult...yeah there's a lot of stuff that really isnt much to write home about, some of these weren't that bad, just not as amazing as I remembered when i was little. Nowadays I actually like krogzilla, do's n don'ts, planets, and im mixed here and there with zombies vs ninjas. I did personally enjoy Life's a zoo. The most lazy thing I noticed from the channel was that An Okay Place to Eat was just a pilot someone made and the channel got the rights and seperated the pilot into 10 episodes. You can still find the pilot alone on youtube.
    I was a huuuuge Oishi fan back then when it came out. I used to draw so much fan art and one of my fan comics got attention from the creators o.o Daniel Dominguez was the guy who contacted me and told me they loved my fan comic so much that they wanted to add 2 of my cartoon characters in the background in rhe origins trilogy. When the 3rd origins episode came out I saw my characters on the far right with Oishi's Classmates.
    Boi was that a trip in my past.

    I am proud to be a watcher of Shut Up Cartoons. My favorite one was Krogzilla. It wasn't very good most of the time, but it was a different kind of entertainment that has worked for me because it was unique and varied. It was like a set of prototypical examples of what cartoons would be like in the future and that's great! I respect Shut Up Cartoons a lot and I'm happy I watched it back then. I even liked Weasel Town just for the sake that it existed. Something about it was just kinda satisfying.

    I think an initiative to produce and platform independent CZcams animations wasn't really a bad idea at all, but there were definitely some huge mistakes made. The big one for me is branding it around Smosh and pandering to only that demographic, which clearly pigeonholed them and made it really hard to try anything new and experimental. The upload schedule was also very demanding and I'm sure set back quality control a long ways, and they obviously didn't know what their long term plans for syndication were. I would have loved to see something like this succeed, perhaps like a more low budget, indie version of what Cartoon Hangover was trying to do back in the day
