I actually liked Max a lot more than Phoebe. Yes, he could be a jerk, but his family openly prefer his twin sister over him, so you can't blame him entirely for wanting to be a supervillian.
Honestly tho!
Supervillains get to have way more fun that heroes as they aren’t bound by things like morals and laws
he also had a lot of character development later in the show
I guess it’s because Phoebe is that sort of character that is just so perfect it gets annoying specially because she was clearly the writers’ favorite, she was the one who usually got her happy ending in the end of the episode while Max had to apologize to her for whatever he did so she would end up being the one who was right all along
@@lauracerqueiramachado8979 basically, a Mary Sue (the name comes from a Star Trek fanfic character that is too perfect)
4:46
The fact that he walks on his pillows with his shoes on, shows how evil Max truly is on the inside
Let me get this straight: You comment something that is unrelated to the fact that I have two HEAVENLY HANDSOME girlfriends? Considering that I am the unprettiest CZcamsr ever, having two handsome girlfriends is really incredible. Yet you did not mention that at all. I am quite disappointed, dear jus
He sleeps in that bed so he can get it messy if he wants to ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
That is 100% true
Yes so true
The mooostash maaaan!
But I've done that and felt like a devil. To this day I have PTSD of just putting my shoes anywhere near my bed.
Yk, what I liked about this show is, that despite them being superheroes, we rarely see the superhero sides, and it focuses way more on "living with superpowers as a kid". Like, theres so many shows about "saving the day" and etc., but this show shows the other sides.
Woooow I didn't even think abt that!! So well said!!
That was most likely just because they didn’t have the budget to actually make a superhero show
shhh dont burst my bubble@@mocapcow2933
Yeah like lab rats, I think lab rats is the perfect mix between family and superhero’s even better than thundermens
@@BlueberryMuffiney Well I can imagine why it would've escaped your notice. Not like they made a whole theme song about it.
I grew up watching The Thundermans. The show is actually amazing, it doesn’t forcibly try to be funny, and more so focused on the relatable sibling dynamic.
It was trash
@@user-kr9ci4qh6g And that’s your opinion, carry on.
Forcibly try to be funny, and more so focused on relatable sibling dynamic.
@@user-kr9ci4qh6g we dont care honestly.
I feel after like season 3 it just wasn't that great. The z force thing wasn't very good tbh. The show lost a lot of the school stuff I think a lot of ppl liked towards the end which I understand but it lost a lot of good characters during that, also how max got dumped was stupid. Atleast that's just my opinion.
To be honest, The Thundermans was so weird and dumb when I watched it as a teen. Most jokes didn't always land and it was really wacky sometimes. Yet, even though I don't remember much of it, but I actually enjoyed this show. Plus, who doesn't love Max. Dude had a lot of character development.
Edit: Thank u so much for the likes and also tanjoy0205 I forgot about of the rabbit, I think his name was Dr Colosso. Funny character.
I enjoyed it as a teen too, and tbh i kinda apreciate it nowadays because it has the same type of humour i loved from icarly and such as a kid, but this one i can look back at fonly because it lacks the messed up background of schneider shows
True, loved this show! Though I have to say Billy was my favorite character (Max was my second favorite)
@@the-white-eye I was either too young or not alive for most of the other shows. I watched a tiny bit of Jessie and Liv and Maddie but the only Nickelodeon shows like that I watched were Henry Danger and The Thundermans. I also watched that one show where Phoebe's actress guest stared as a genie and the Henry Danger spin off.
@@bastienx3420 knight squad! Still sad that it got cancelled
@@deepdishequalspizza I think one of the producers are from liv and Maddie and that’s why I think cherrys actress was also in liv and Maddie and also Joey brag was in it too
Max has all of these evil devices and powers but never uses them. He could overthrow governments, nations, and organizations but decides to prank the principal.
That's Nickelodeon for you lmao
To be fair, that's exactly what I'd have done as a kid, if I had those gadgets. I feel like kids don't really think on a global scale, since so much of their world is taken up by school and social activity.
My guy can become a dc supervilan and he uses for nothing
That's because max was never really evil, he just wanted attention from his family since they only cared about his sister.
He literally has a button that could blow up the moon.
The thundermans was clearly an attempt to win over the Disney channel's glory. Considering the fact that *Lab Rats* (which was a convenient other show about teens with powers in a sitcom format) was made only a year earlier.
Ever heard of the villains of valley view
no, no I have not
@@alexshay9033
I love Max, he was my favorite. Phoebe may have been smarter school wise but Max had all these devices that could destroy the city. He has a lot of smarts he just doesn’t like showing them in school which is understandable. Max did what he could to get his parents attention and i applaud him for that. Phoebe was just they perfect child while Max you could constant see his flaws and him trying
This show is actually great. It's not very funny, but the characters and their development are surprisingly well written, especially if you watch all of the show.
It's about as good as Henry Danger. Man, Game Shakers is the only bad Dan Schneider show.
@@lollie7141 both Henry Danger and game shakers suck
@@lollie7141 hahaha i used to be obsessed with Henry Danger and this show. Actually my favorite character was Chloe because I loved her superpower. Still do.
I agree, the humor is about the same as any other nick/Disney sitcom but the Episodes were actually entertaining because the plots were fun
@@lollie7141 Game shakers was alright to me nothing really good 2.5/5
Phoebe did more evil stuff in a day as a villain than Max the entire show.
I’m gonna be honest Phoebe looked kinda hot in her supervillain outfit
@@sugarboi8960 shes 16.
@@IrisBread the actor was 20 filming
@@sugarboi8960 honestly yeah
@@club2thousand the episode wasnt Filmed in 2013. Use your brain.
8:34 bruh why is she all like “THaT’S iT” then lifts them up so dramatically like that
The way she stretches out her arm so aggressively is kind of funny.😂
I actually know twins who used to be close as Zack and Cody, but have completely drifted apart and barely talk.
Ricky ok
maturing is realizing max was low-key the scapegoat of that family, just because he was a weirdo and claimed he wanted to be a "villain" (no matter how shit he was at it) instead of hero.
seriously, they treated him terribly.
Exactly, even his amazing inventing skills are made a joke of and never utilized, acknowledged or appreciated. Hell apparently people got so annoyed a hashtag was created on tumblr called "protect max" in response to his treatment in season 3. That's how bad it got.
I mean he was a jerk through a ton of the series and had his actions cause a ton of the main conflicts. Max is a way more interesting character than phoebe but I’m not gonna say he was just some scapegoat. One episode that was annoying what the pizza contest one, the guy talks non stop about being a villain, steals from a museum, and has a laser to draw on the moon, somehow had his feelings hurt when his family thought he cheated in a contest.
He wasn't the scapegoat, half the bad stuff happened because he always screwed up
@@fulichak6499 The fact that he was a bastard doesn’t exclude his not being treated in a fair way by his family.
The two things coexist.
@@fulichak6499 other half was Phoebe, but they still liked her :|
I completely forgot about this show till now but this seems tame compared to the episodes I can remember. There was an episode where the mom got pregnant and apparently superheroes experience hyper pregnancy, so in the span of one episode she; got pregnant, went through 9 months of pregnancy in a few seconds of being off screen, gave birth, the baby grew to a few months old in a few hours, then the baby was a 2 year old toddler in the span of a day, and the "baby" saved the family from a villain. This show was weird.
They also randomly change her powers from bubbles to teleportation because apparently supers have temporary baby powers? The writers probably just made that up on the fly when they realised they couldn’t really do anything interesting with bubble powers.
Yeah I remember that. I also remember in that episode how Billy got born. Thunderman was flying his wife to the hospital and she couldn't take it anymore and he popped out of her and fell for who knows for what long. That's why they call him a mistake.
Yeah the show was weird.
@@fjalac9661 damn what did you and I watch?
@@CometCereal She's apparently the Jack-Jack of the show. Giving the "baby" of the family random superpowers and all.
@@CometCereal The Incredibles took note. And thus birthing Jackjack
Max was my favroute, he had allot of grough threw the series. I felt rlly bad for him as well, his family always favoured his twin and it clearly affected him. I'm happy at the end they were able to make up though
4:12 When parents openly favour one child.
Since Alex is an allegedly grown man watching a kids show, that makes me an allegedly grown man watching another allegedly grown man watching a kids show. Not sure if that's the explanation I want to give my wife next time she asks what the hell I'm watching...
That's the great part about having kids. You can watch the shows without explanation. The TV is pretty much permanently tuned to Disney or Nickelodeon.
And that makes me an allegedly teen reading the comment of an allegedly grown man watching another allegedly grown man watching kids show
Tell her you are watching a famous child psychologist who evaluates his patients based on the stress they show while acting on old shows.
That was a weird sentence.
@@floryandivialle4761 I'm a grown man commenting on a teenagers comment on a grown man's comment about a grown man watching a grown man watch kids shows ...
same but nonbinary and i can blame my brain damage.
My stepdaughter LOVED this show. I was always amazed at how committed the younger sister was to the huge flowers in her hair.
yes the bow, she really was in her jojo siwa era
Yep, it was kinda her thing
@@lauracerqueiramachado8979 I get that it was her niche but that’s how I knew my stepdaughter was watching this show. With the typical bad overacting, I couldn’t necessarily tell between Jessie, the Jessie spinoff, Vicorious, that one where they were twins played by I think Dove Cameron …
@@carolinamurtha3102 I agree with the rest, but I don't think Victorious had bad acting
@@carolinamurtha3102 Liv and Maddie.
8:00 wait they literally just did the balcony scene from Romeo and Juliet lmao
another show i watched during the pandemic. not bad at all. i avoided this show like the plague when it first came on but decided to give it a chance. i wonder what it was with sitcoms and adding extra children halfway through its run?? weird. but i will say that this show's existence helped shows like villains of valley view thrive so i'm glad for that (both moms have electric powers wtf??)
Same
Failing cartoons and sitcoms add new characters to boost low ratings. Remember Itchy and Scratchy adding Poochy? And the Simpsons simultaneously adding Roy to their cast?
the thundermans was the ONLY reason i gave villains of valley view a chance
When view count is low they add a new character for the hype
It's telling that fans who try to look at the show without rose colored glasses admit that it wasn't a good show. I only saw three episodes just to stare at how Phoebe is and I don't remember anything about them because they were boring. And as of late, there's no video reviews backing the show up.
And now there's a newer Disney show called The Villains of Valley View that people accuse of being a ripoff of this show. But honestly, I think the Lab Rats creators might've watched it and thought "we should do that! But the complete opposite where they're evil! And with GOOD writing!"
Seriously, this show is the closest thing to a decent current running live action kidcom that hasn't gotten cancelled yet. And personally, it's a better Disney Channel sitcom than Jessie, A.N.T. Farm, Sonny With a Chance, Shake It Up, Jonas or Hannah Montana. And I like all those shows...to an extent. Varying degrees of extent but extent nonetheless.
There's more to it than Thundermans fans say it is. Give it a chance.
I did hear from one CZcamsr that Bunk'd actually got better since season 4. I still don't plan on watching but at least Disney Channel's favoritism to the show isn't ALL for nothing.
Can’t believe you never talked about Colosso! He had tons of character development both physically and mentally!
FR
Ikr he is my favorite animal character of all of Nick. Edit: Thx for the likes haha
man, i completely forgot about that funny bunny. so underapreciated
I know, he's the main reason I decided to check out the show cause I love his voice actor
True XD
To be honest show was not the worst thing ever. Max and the Rabbit had a very fun dynamic and honestly got closest to having emotional moments
Colosso was so underrated he was hilarious
Honestly I’m pretty sure Max had a better relationship with Colosso than his family at points.
"the Rabbit" You did not just 😭
colosso was a better friend, teacher and honestly parent than max’s whole family combined
A Nickelodeon show that I did despise a lot had to be Nicky, Ricky, Dicky, and Dawn! The plot was so repetitive. It's literally, the kids make a conflict, and then fix it. That's it, really.
2:39 Me when my mom finds out about my search history
Honestly I thought this was one of nick’s underrated shows. It had a lot of good moments
It's weird The Thundermans wasn't made by Dan Schneider because they had a great crossover episode with Henry Danger which is in the same universe as all of Schneider's other shows.
That episode confused me because Jace played a different character on the Thundermans
@@thedude8457 Leon Thomas III & Victoria Justice played characters on iCarly before the crossover. A lot of people look alike. It's not confusing so long as it isn't mentioned and explained in universe.
Henry danger, the thundermans and game shakers are in a single universe separate from iCarly and Victorious. That's because the thundermans had a crossover with Henry danger, which had another crossover with game shakers, and the latter one had an episode that confirmed that the fictional universe of icarly-victorious is ALSO fictional in the hd-tt-gs universe.
Yes, I learned the whole nickelodeon cinematic universe lore by wasting a lot my childhood watching trash shows (aside from iCarly and Victorious which are gold)
@@naturalLog26 the haunted Hathaways are in the same universe too because they did a crossover with the Thundermans.
@@availanila oh my god I hated that show so much 💀
I'm sorry, how did you not mention their archenemy who THEY TURNED INTO A RABBIT AND ARE KEEPING AS A PET?! He's basically the reason Max becomes evil!
Actualy yea. Why didn't they send him to jail. Being a human pet sounds like genuent torture. Like yea it was supossed to be revenge by how he ruined their wedding but still. Over 20 years a rabbit. I never realised how horrible that is as a kid.
also suprised he didn't mention the little sister that came in on one episode and grew to 4 in like 2 episodes, then just stopped growing.
Man was radicalized by his pet rabbit
I mean not really, max himself said he decided to be a villain because he doesn’t want to be overshadowed by pheobe, if he can’t be a better hero than her, he would just be the best villain he can be
@@obitosenju3768 and in the series finale he was a father himself. Which makes it even more fuck up now that I think of it.
I loved the thundermans, It was my childhood show
It was mine too
same
Me too
6:57 Everyone probably had a crush on SheGo of Team Go as a kid.
I loved the rabbit when watching this show. However, it was confusing that he was a evil super villain who got turned into a rabbit but he acts like one and is treated like a pet. It’s.. odd…. Oh yeah did I mention there’s a rabbit which used to be a unstoppable super villain but the dad turned him into a rabbit and now he’s Max’s pet-friend thing
I mean it’s very Salem-esque
That reminds of Lanny and his fish from Pair of Kings - it’s actually very similar… hm…
@@sunshineeee I was going to say, I don't get how it's confusing because it's basically Salem.
@@sunshineeee Took it right out of my brain, which is why he's one of the best characters of the show imo
Peter Pettigrew....scabbers...lol
if Quinton won’t do an 8 hour deep dive on The Thundermans then I think you know what to do..
Yyyeesssss
I second this.
I third this, Quinton should make a deep dive review on this show.
well quinton is a loser of course he won't do a show for winners.
I agree
Weird in a good way, I personally loved everything about it. Some episodes were cooler than others, but they all had great lessons and there were a few lines that were actually pretty funny to me
Now I’ve seen someone else talk about this show i want to share my really in debt theory.
Chloe is actually adopted.
In the show we can see that the family all have various powers and for everyone in the family you can make a argument that they kinda resemble there parents powers in a way showing that they’re there biological offspring.
Max and phoebe both have telekinesis that they could’ve gotten from his dad that can fly.
They also have fire breath and ice breath what they could’ve gotten from there moms weather powers.
Billy has superspeed what he could’ve gotten from his dad as he has a lot of power.
Nora has laser eyes what you can say she has from her mom as it’s just a hot beam.
But Chloe has teleportation and there doesn’t seem to be any way she could’ve gotten it from her parents given how it’s so different.
In the show they also hint at several superheroes being on duty and maybe a couple died leaving a orphan baby behind.
To not make it look suspicious the mother fakes being pregnant for a while before adopting Chloe, this would explain the short pregnancy.
I need other hobby’s
Now that you mention it...
I see what you mean but I don’t think that Chloe is adopted. We literally see Barb give birth to her in A Hero is Born (well it technically happens offscreen but you know what I mean.)
for a show that’s pretty cheesy and with jokes that don’t always land, i loved the thunderman’s. even when my little sister watched it recently, i rewatched with her was actually surprising invested lmao
I feel it didn't quite work as a comedy (which is obviously what they were intending it to primarily be) but it did work as a plot-based story. Characters were consistent and grew, the world evolved around the character's actions, stuff like that. It just wasn't always very good at being funny.
Bro same. My sense of humor is really broken that I laugh at the show I rewatch stuff and it’s funny.
i dont really even like the thundermans, its very boring
@@trianglemoebius no
samuel no
Wait, did Alex watch the ENTIRE series? I thought he just watched the pilot. Get this man a medal or something if he does because that's dedication.
He probably just read the plot description of the episodes
@@amiraultshill We have no reason to assume he doesn't watch them. Not only are they all easily obtainable, but Alex seems to enjoy watching cheesy/stupid shows and movies, so it isn't like he'd find it tedious.
@@trianglemoebius well he makes these vids weekly so assuming he starts watching the thundermans immediately after his last vid was posted. He would have 7 days to watch all 4 seasons, write a script, record the video, and edit the video. Which seems extreme, also that's assuming he didn't take a break for a day after the last vid was posted.
@@amiraultshill That is assuming he only starts watching a new show after he finishes the last one, yes. I figure Alex is watching lots of stuff simultaneously (again, he enjoys watching these clearly, so it makes sense he'd be doing it) and then makes videos on whichever ones interest him.
I'm sure there are many shows he watches that he doesn't make videos on too, because they don't give him enough content for a script.
I've never gotten the impression Alex watches these solely to make vids. I think he watches them naturally for entertainment, and also makes YT videos when he finds one interesting/funny/etc enough
@@trianglemoebius yeah but he didn't mention, Dr. Coloso, Chloe etc.
1:47 surfshark sponsor ends here
Thanks
This show was my childhood and it definitely wasn’t the best but it did well for their target audience and I enjoyed watching it with my siblings after school very much 😊
There's one thing I don't like about this show it's that Hank, Phoebe, and Max don't have their own secret identities. Yes Hank is Thunderman but he's name is Hank Thunderman. It's a really dumb joke that doesn't make sense considering it's apart of the Schneiderverse where Ray Manchester & Henry Hart alter egos are Captain Man & Kid Danger respectively.
Phoebe does have secret identity name it was in one of episodes
They eventually get their own secret identities later.
Yeah one of their guests asked him, it was Cole Campbell's father I think in Season 1 and it was kinda of a throw away joke
@@hanaakeljic3921 oh yeah, Thundergirl which would mean Max is Thunderboy. The problem with that is Hank & Barb have 3 other children with superpowers and they can't all have the same name. Guaranteed it'll be associated with their powers but still they should all be more unique and not so simple.
Schneiderverse XD. I like that name
For a superhero show, there’s an EXTREME lack of superpower moments. 🤨🤔🙃
@@louise8376 the show is not terrible,the show was made for kids younger than you and me also for me.
This show is about a couple who had retired from the life of superheroes and moved to have a normal life after they had kids.
Agreed, they probably couldn't afford the budget for decent Superhero effects.
The little sister only had 1 power right? Just laser eyes, sucks that she didn’t develop new ones as she got older. Same with Billy and his super speed.
Because they were trying to live a normal life
I first saw a but of this video a couple years ago, the one where Max replaced the city's water with smth else. Then, a couple years later, I remember the show and watched it. It was weird and didn't make sense sometimes, but I loved it for some reason, and still do.
4:41 Never thought there would be an Emiru call out in an Alex Meyers video!
As a guy with a twin sister, I can confirm that Alex meyers is indeed wrong this time, man we fought worse that anything this show has.
Lol.. So true
My twin bro and I fought like crazy but we love each other all the same
Same, it's just very different from identical twins, I know some identical twins and they are very close while I'm here not wanting to be associated with the bozo called my twin sister
@@Joe_Mama.also_YTHandlessuckass my friend is an identical twin and he could not be more different from his brother, the only thing they share is looks.
@@cynthiambamalu7104 it's fighting for a minute and being best buds the next. Nothing beats turning the house upside down fighting to doing the dishes together after five minutes.
@Ali Fadila Lol, it's the simple joy of having siblings
They drive you completely crazy but you'll lay everything down for them
The Thundermans kinda sounds like the Incredibles with the "Mom wants to live a normal life, and the dad doesn't"
Agreed, it was a cheesy show, with dodgy special effects, but it still had moments of charm.
Isn't that like the plot for every "retired superhero story"?
The dad did want to live a a normal life in thundermans 💀
The show even got the baby with multiple superpowers in common.
@@mcflurry2061 yeah and the dad was just a bit of a show off who liked making people happy
Fun fact they are making a Thundermans move.
Just stumbled onto your channel the other day, can't stop watching, love the content!
Fun fact: Henry Danger and the Thundermans had a crossover.
And Henry and gameshakers
Bullshit
Loved it
@@mangareader7474 honestly, imo, the Thundermans and Henry Danger was so much better than the Gameshakers and Henry Danger crossover.
I used to absolutely love this show but i only watched the first few seasons. I also wanted to be a supervillain as a kid because of max. and marcus from lab rats. They just seemed so cool at the time.
Edit: OMG I JUST REALIZED THAT WAS GENDER ENVY
Man of culture
i still love marcus tbh
fr
This reminds me of these two CZcamsrs named Adi and Tal Fishman 2:48
there were some things that phoebe said toward the end of the show, that weren't funny in general, but her expressions and the way she says them made me chuckle a few times
I love this show. it was so funny to me, in that endearing, stupid way most Nick shows are :) Also, my cousins are twins, and they despised each other until they were 18.
agreed, the show has aged WAY better than expected.
I remember preferring max because I thought Phoebe was too perfect. Also her excessive and unrealistic girly ness bothered me cause all the big things I remember about her are her liking boys and hating max while I remember max causing mischief and doing fun stuff.
See I related a lot to Phoebe, but had a crush on Max (I mean how could you not) the girly Ness at the time I found relatable, though I was a 12 year old girl so it makes sense. Her fatal flaw is arrogance and in hindsight she is not perfect she just ended up filling that role in the family. However the boy obsessed culture made me think I always had to have a crush and ended up forcing them on some popular guy, who I later realised I did not like in that way (I mean it was never reciprocated), and as much as I had a crush on max SUPERVILLAIN PHOEBE awoke something in me.
YES!!! My thoughts exactly! I hate protags like Phoebe,, they almost have no personality or flare to them it’s just so boring!
@@thekittyangel5299 i feel like sitcom protagonists have little to no personality because the viewer is supposed to put themselves in the protag's shoes, but honestly it's more interesting when they have actual character instead of just being a cardboard cutout
@@tidepodpadthai2633 ohh yeah, I never thought of that, maybe that’s why
This seems like internal misogyny
I recently started listening to your podcast gotta say I love it keep up the good work
For a younger audience, very top notch. When I was younger, I enjoyed the hell out of this show. Would be so happy for a new episode and was so upset when it ended. I'm 16 now, so I agree kind of to this. I guess it's for preference really, still kind of enjoy it a bit (not as much as I used to)
I’ve come to a massive conclusion. The animated teenage boy room in Alex’s videos is actually his own room in real life.
So, a summary of the show basically: weird but fun. I sporadically watched episodes as a kid and yeah, it's stupid, but it's supposed to be. It made me and my brother laugh a lot at that age.
Same. Such good days when we were innocent little kids lol
Hell I still watch it to this day. And I’m an adult now. Yes my sense of humor is broken.
Same but I was twelve or so 😅
Congratulations on 3 mil Alex. You totally deserve it!!!

Also they got Naruto in there 😂😂
2:24 , yeah , basicly a dog making horrible jokes, and yet I still live the show😅
A show that passes the Bechtel test by coincidence, once again.
Max's character grew so much as the show went on, and it was a really unique concept to make him a villain, and it was overall pretty unique idea. I mean it's The Incredibles as a TV show don't get me wrong, but I thoroughly enjoyed the show until the last season when it got weird.
No
What was wrong with the last season. I personally enjoyed it
I tried rewatching this show a few months ago and it made me uncomfortable how they just didn't take him seriously with how much "villiany" Max was interested in, and actively going towards. Literal black sheep
I love how you react to movies and shows. In fact I watch all your vids, even if I have never seen the movie or series they are about. 😊❤️
10:32 this is the weirdest superhero team I've ever seen 😂 like Ladybug, Captain Man, and SONIC???
I hope I'm not sounding like a broken record, but... How long until you do a video on Lab Rats? Now that you did videos on both of Nickelodeon's 2010s sitcoms about teens with superpowers, it's only fair that you do Disney's take on it (which, for the record, came before both The Thundermans and Henry Danger). And let me tell you, Lab Rats' first episode is pretty freaking bonkers.
Yes!!!!! Please!!!!!
Up
That's what I've been thinking. I would love to see a video on Lab Rats!
That show bothered the hell out of me watching the 3 white kids bully the black kid while the adults just watched and let it happen
@@kit4796 wait, that's what you got from it?
The talking rabbit, Dr Colosso, was always my favourite character. He reminded me of Salem from the 90's Sabrina.
He is voiced by Dana Snyder, the guy who voiced Gazpacho in Chowder.
he's my favourite too
One thing that's nice about being able to see what parts of a video are viewed the most is being able to see where exactly when a video sponsor ends.
How is nobody talking about how phoebe basically cheats on her boyfriend every other episode?
Honestly, the Thundermans was such a good show and I really enjoyed it more. Plus Max was hilarious so was Phoebe and Cherry. I honestly still rewatch this show because I enjoyed it so much.

Scott Fellows is cool too, he made Ned's Declassified, Johnny Test, Big Time Rush, 100 Things to do Before High School, and Supernoobs(I recommend Alex review Ned's Declassified and 100 Things)
@@Brewart2012 so that's why 100 things to do before high school gives me Ned vibes
@@DJWingoYT They do have a lot of similarities
-They both take place in middle school
-Ned and CJ both talk to the viewer about what happens in the episode and the lesson they learned
-They both are a trio of 2 guys and 1 girl
-Cookie and Fenwick are both smart, black, and wear glasses
I'd say Ned's is more about how to survive middle school while 100 things is about making the most/having fun with it
@@Brewart2012 since both were on nickloeden maybe 100 things was a spirtioul successor
@@jadenbryant9283 Possibly
Ahahahaha the Quinton Reviews deep dives are my background noise a lot of the time 😂 it’s like a way to rewatch the shows without having to cringe through them
10:32 "what is it superheroes fight now? Emotions?" **Miraculous cover in the background**
But like that's technically correct, since the villians become that by *negative emotions*
Alex had brothers? Why did I think he was an only child? Also the quips in this video were super funny. Thanks Alex.
I think assuming someone's an only child is kinda just a part of all of us since we never really think of anyone in relation to the CZcamsr aside from parents & grandparents and whatnot
@@HannahsMoviesAndMusic Very true
In his Rodrick Rules video he mentions that he has 4 sibling and I was just as shocked 😲
@@HannahsMoviesAndMusic no
This show may have been weird, but it was definitely also my childhood.
Same
Me too.
That Dan Schneider joke aged very well 💀
It aged like chocolate milk that sat in the sun for 3 days.
the silence at the jokes had me so good keep up the perfect content alex
Cherry and Phoebe: *being energetic and "fun" together*
Me and my Bestie: *sitting on the Couch, reading books, and only seeing eachother two weeks in a year*
Okay but.. why is that actually accurate? lol
Im not like others girls they say 😌💅
I really like the Thundermans, especially when the episode where Max finally had the chance to get what he wanted, to become a supervillian. It had been mentioned before but only in joking sort of situations. However, they actually gave development of that and showed that good side of Max. Max was never truly a Villian. He was just a bad kid and honestly, many shows play this trope of the favorite kid vs. Bad kid or something. They play this trope but it is mentioned as a joke and also mentioned his parents do love Max but just didn't like how bad he acted, which is why I LOVE Barb and Hank. I also really liked Dr. (whatever his name is I forgot lmao).
Colosso?
@@foisopracurtir6389 Yeah, him 😊
Ah yes my favorite character, dr whatever his name is I forgot lol
@@Belgianmapping1567 Truly the best character name he could have been given 🤩💅
Thank you Alex for always making good reviews, I love your channel!
Omg I loved this show sm. I related a lot to Phoebe, but had a crush on max (I mean who didn’t) and love him as a character too. Thundermans and Henry Danger also had a cross over episode and I remember it being quite good.
When she pulls the game disc out COMPLETELY CASELESS, I was horrified.
What hurt me most about this show was how they stupified the parents especially the dad, and that one time we had a max and nora episode that was soon good, that they never tried it again. 😔 so many missed opportunities in this show
It could get a squeal if it is animated
"stupid parents" was the status-quo for these shows. Remember, they were targeted largely at teens, who like to believe their parents are dumb or at least horribly out of touch.
Aqq
All nikelodeon Dads are being portrait as unintelligent and stupid
No, they weren't portrayed as stupid, but rather cringy, which every teen thinks their parents are
3 million niiice! Congratulations Alex you deserve it! Love your videos.🎉🎉🎉
"Everything you've ever done ever?" Gee, I wonder why he became a villain.
My friend introduced me to this show a couple weeks ago and Dr. Colosso lowkey reminds me of Salem from Sabrina the Teenage Witch. I wonder which one would win in a fight…
Agreed, they were both the most entertaining parts of their respective shows. My money is on Salem.
@@trinaq Omg it’s you! Hi Trina! I see you almost everywhere! Sorry if that sounds weird.
And I guess you’re right. Salem’s got hundreds of years’ experience.
Hi, LovelyLivelyV, it's always wonderful to run into like minded people this side of CZcams. 😘😍
@@trinaq Aw, thanks! If we cross paths again in the future, you may call me V for short. Saves typing time lol
salem definitely he's cuter and a kitty.
I have a twin and we used to watch this show as kids like A LOT, their relationship was very relatable for us cause we hated each other’s guts lol. We would always comment how we tried to kill each other….their relationship is very accurate in my experience :”D
@Sleeping Quest I don't think it's quite so factual as it is the perception. I have a twin, and I admit if you asked us how we felt about each other back then, we'd have flat out told you we hated each other. But the truth is people who actually hate each other don't do stuff like sit down and watch telly together. We clearly did love each other (and still do), we just got annoyed with the other one sometimes.
I think it's more a question that if you have two people around each other long enough, one will inevitably annoy the other eventually, and twins are together usually for 18+ years. It's very easy to focus in on the bad.
@Sleeping Quest There is a bit of a difference, but it's societally created. When you're eternally having your identity intertwined with another person, as twins are, you naturally grow closer to them. Or, at times, further apart.
Think of how twins will be called stuff like "The twins", whereas siblings are more treated as their own person.
I love that he references quinton reviews with the 8 hour analysis line in ththe beginning
Personally I loved this show as a child, and looking back on it now... It has aged like apple cider
As someone who grew up with this show, this was a great review, but yet I'm still very confused on how he managed to go this whole review without mentioning Dr colosso!?
I can't believe you finally reviewed this show and you didn't even mention Max had a talking pet rabbit named Dr calsso that was definitely a WHT moment for me lol
10:29
This is the greatest superhero team to ever exist no other could ever compete.
My cousin and I used to fight about which was better lab rats or thundermans, me on team lab rats ultimatley lost because it got cancled before the thundermans but then we both started watching henry danger.
Cheers for 3 million, Alex. Of all the parasocial relationships I have with strangers on the Internet, you're one of the ones who makes me laugh.
Man, i missed these tv shows from nickelodeon (The most notable ones were Henry Danger, The Thundermans, Game Shakers, iCarly, Sam & Cat) The Thundermans was great, the charcter development, the comedy was meh, but overall the show was awesome. Congrats on getting to 3mil Alex!
i agree, im 12, and these shows were a big part of my childhood!

I love how every time Billy runs, all these papers explode around him but WHERE DO THESE PAPERS COME FROM?!
I find it hilarious and cool how this show and Henry Danger ended up creating a second shared universe of Nick shows. It's still going on to this day.
What do you mean? Henry Danger got a sequel.
@@sirmel11 Yeah, Danger Force is part of the universe too.
I don't mean it in a disrespectful way but this is just the Henry Danger universe. The Thundermans has nothing going on to push the universe forward, right? Unless I'm missing something and they're still mentioned...
@@sirmel11 Thundermans had a crossover with Henry Danger and the events of the said crossover were referenced in an episode of Danger Force
@@kenm.a.d.7196 Ah, sorry for questioning you.
I know they were brought up after the special in Henry Danger.
Disney might be doing something similar soon.
I have never seen this show, but I am so glad you pointed out that shoes on the bed thing, I literally almost screamed, who just puts their dirty a** shoes on their bed...bruh that's where you sleep.
4:13 there were two sets of twins in my grade in middle school.
The identical twins got on pretty well, but the fraternal twins where worse than pheobe and max. Like they were arch enemys.
