I will not stand for this Reboot slander. Being one of the first fully CG animated shows to exist of course it wasn't going to hold up to modern standards. But for the time it was a pretty big deal and it paved the way for so many shows that came after. Still one of my favorite shows.
It creeped me out lol
To quote Enzo, “It was Alphanumeric!”
Agreed! Kids these days are so spoiled. Sometimes, the story is better than the animation, especially for a weekly show that is 25+ years old.
They should have showed them Beast Wars too
@@topazrandoms8898 love Beast Wars. 3 great seasons. We don't talk about it's sequel though. [Shudders]
Gargoyles is one of the best animated and written cartoons I’ve ever seen. I rewatched it 2 years ago and it totally held up.
The G.I Joe slander was heartbreaking 😢
“GARGOYLES” WAS THE BEST!!!! Keith David as Goliath…what an awakening in me growing up😅😅😅
“They should call it Warner Siblings”. It’s called Warner Brothers because it was started by not two brothers, not three brothers but four brothers called Warner. It’s not a name they just pulled from thin air that shouldn’t offend your sensibilities. It was four brothers and that’s why they called it that.
GARGOYLES IS A 9/10 SHOW AND I WILL DIE ON THIS HILL.
Fr!!! It's a great show with hot looking characters, what more do you need!!?
Why so low? Its definitely 9.5 minimum
Hearing one of the teens say that “Rugrats” was the same as “Muppet Babies” has me shaking my head right now.
Reboot was literally an unheard of idea... an entire show done in CG was literally too expensive a proposition at the time. A Canadian CG company, Mainframe, proved them wrong. To Mainframe's credit, each season the animation and character models got better. Bonus points for being educational on computer jargon, game cliches, and embracing the uncanny valley creepiness.
Captain Planet, Sonic The Hedgehog, Rugrats, Doug, Ghostbusters, Spiderman, Batman, X-Men, and so many more you left out! 😭 Please do part 2!
Thundercats and Transformer as well
@@ethanr2202 YES! Those too! I didn't forget about them, I just can't spend my whole day listing them all! 😂 People should keep listing the ones I missed though. I need more hits of that sweet sweet nostalgia 😅 Thank you for reminding me again
@@CMStrawbridgeI feel like they need to do X-Men at some point especially since the season finale is on Wednesday. I’m so hyped
Aaaah! Real Monsters!
Don't forget Street Sharks!
Hello Fellow Humans,
I was born in 1983. So I totally remember these. I had to tell my kids that we couldn't skip intros and you can't fast forward commercials and they were 3-5 minutes long. Kids have it so easy today.
Man these kids not realizing that Reboot was pretty high end 3D for weekly TV show at that time.
It's funny that they comment on reboot like it looks so terrible and bad, not realizing that the animation style was revolutionary for its time. They are used to so much better animtaion techniques they just not realize what they just watched
Bro, that nobody picked Gargoyles to watch is criminal.😂
Have these teens been living under a rock to not know the names of the turtles? This franchise has had so many adaptations over the years with a movie as recent as 2023. Even if they’re not familiar with 80’s cartoon version, they would’ve come across the later adaptations at some point.
Oh lord, these kids do not perceive the greatness that was Gargoyles! Keith David was amazing as Goliath!
And Spawn 🙂
"I've been denied everything, *even REVENGE!* "
Gargoyles to me will always be a 10/10. Tmnt and Magic school bus will always be iconic as one of my favorites.
He-Man and the Masters of the Universe was also turned into a live-action movie called Masters of the Universe starring actor Dolph Lundgren & Courteney Cox (of TV's friends) in the 80s, the spin-off of He-Man is She-Ra and the Princess of Power she is he-man's sister.
Props to the one who dropped a Darkwing reference.
For Muppet Babies I always thought that you never Nanny’s face because you saw what the babies were seeing which was legs. They let you see things from a baby’s point of view.
"They should just teach school through The Magic School Bus." - My 5th grade science was basically Magic School Bus. In Middle School, it was Bill Nye the Science Guy.
I was literally about to say that elementary through early high school was taught through MSB and Bill Nye. The only thing that changed was John Green’s Crash Course got big when I was in high school, so Crash Course would teach history while Bill Nye and occasionally MSB taught science.
Me too!
@@Miss_Creepy_As_Hell Yeah, Crash Course was basically my Sophomore World History.
Gargoyles is soooo good! It has humans being prejudice about gargoyles and them are trying to feel at home. Even when they are proving they are not a threat to humanity, humans still are afraid of them. But one officer lady are trying to help them as much as she can. I like the human Vs. monsters theme, because show who is the real monster: the humans. But the gargoyles are aware that exist good humans and they can trust.
They did Gargoyles dirty.
The old Teenage mutant hero turtles theme was an absolute BANGER. Heroes in a half shell, TURTLE POWER!
You guys didn’t wanna blow their minds with the greatness of the TMNT intro huh? I get it..
Y'all are sleepin' on ReBoot.
Also, how could we not include Carmen Sandiego. She not only had an animated series, but also a gameshow and a number of video/PC games. Plus, she was educational.💜
Reboot was the first all CGI animated cartoon for Saturday morning, no other cartoon up to then was all computer animated. The whole show takes place inside a computer. This show was very popular when it first came out.
No wonder it was so ugly and creepy.
'Gargoyles' is NOT scary. It was a great show.
Ah, this segment hit me in the feels.
Also, no 'Captain Planet'?
When she said Muppet Babies & Rugrats were basically the same thing, I felt my soul escape my body. If they only knew.
I grew up in the 80’s and none of these cartoons aired on Saturday morning. They all aired after school.
It broke my heart what they said about Reboot
Hit that like button if you watched Beast Wars, Biker Mice from Mars, and Mummies Alive! as a kid.
@frommany21 I also loved Histeria. I got yelled at by my parents during the historical re-enactment for turning the volume all the way up 😂
Voltron, Thundercats, The Centurions, Swat Kats, Ducktales, Inspector Gadget, Transformers, Johny Quest and plenty more where that came from
"They should just teach school through the Magic School Bus" as if they didn't used to lmao
Gargoyles was literally THAT show back in the day!!! I still got the vhs tapes of it!
A real life movie is in the works or was prior to 2020 plague. So far no new updates.😢
Gargoyles is easily the best entry in this list. This, Batman, and X-Men made for some intense viewing.
Truuu!
Xmen was like... you hear the theme and you knew.
@@CocoCece08 now I need to know if you're watching X-Men 97 on Disney+
🙁 Don't worry Reboot, there's folks out there that understands your humor and creative graces.
15:17 - Comparing "Jem and the Holograms" to "She-Ra," so she knows who She-Ra is, but didn't know who He-Man was?
These kids have no respect for quality cartoons 😢
Reboot is a great computer animation. It came out in a time when more and more animation went from drawing by hand to computer (3D) animation. As the storyline involves computers, the internet and related things, it all came together. In that time other great computer animations came out: 'Transformers - Beast Wars' later 'Beast Machines' and Shadow Raiders.' Reboot may look dated, but begin 90's computers weren't as powerfull as today (rendering costed a lot of time), graphics weren't as advanced and they had to do a lot animation by hand and write special software to get things done. As today graphics are near realistic, a lot is automated in animation, we even got AI to help.
These kids man. I'm here for ReBoot and Gargoyles justice. It's such a shame that kids these days don't get shows with actually engaging stories. I get they are judging them on very superficial aspects for such a short video, but damn those two shows are so good. Gargoyles still holds up today (mostly).
Well, these are teens (even though they seem so much younger)... I was getting worked up at the shit talk they were giving Reboot before I had to consider what they grew up with. Reboot walked so that these kids could have shows that could run. That they can even shit talk Reboot means that Reboot did a good job.
@@Raktus Reboot looks hideous and unwatchable. 🤣 The kids were right.
@@TigerGreene oh a troll 😏
@@RecoveringChristian oh a troll. 😏
@@TigerGreene get the attention you desperately needed? Lol sad
"They should just teach school though the magic school bus"... if only she knew. In the 90s and early 2000s if you saw a TV on that tall cart thing (no clue what else to call it, but its all good because you just pictured it in your head) in your science class you knew you were probably about to be watching Bill Nye or The Magic School bus.
Ahh, the good ol' days! Then, if it was a rare movie day and we'd all sit on the carpet/floor to watch a VHS, when they hit that light switch! 🙌🏾
Best part of science class in elementary school.
i got the sense that she said that because they still show the magic school bus in school and she was joking that it should be the main form of teaching. i think that's also why they all knew the show.
The kid saying "It's looks so bad" doesn't realize how great they looked at the time.
Gargoyles is one of the best cartoons ever!
Your not kidding, and batman the animated series 2 of the best shows ever
5:29 - "I would hit 'skip intro'." LOL! Sorry honey, when these were on, it was live TV; there was no 'skip intro' option. You watched the whole song, and memorized it by osmosis against your will. ;)
😂😂The CZcams generation doesn't understand that.
Gargoyles is my number one show on this list and I wish they had made a few more seasons
I can totally agree! The kids on the panel have no clue how great that show was.
Pretty solid choices all around. Love that you put Gargoyles in there, awesome show!
The only change I would make is that instead of the Mighty Ducks, I would have thrown in Darkwing Duck. It was short-lived but great!
Yeah I didn't even know they made a Mighty Ducks cartoon. Dark wing Duck and/or Ducktales would have been better.
Calling He-Man a knock off Thor is blasphemy don't disrespect my show
You should do a part 2 that includes The Littles, Snorks, The Biskitts, Gummy Bears, Beverly Hill Teens, and The Smurfs.
This has to get a volume 2! Next episode must have X-Men and Thundercats!
These kids mocking ReBoot hurt my soul. That was such a good show growing up! The "low budget CGI" was partly intentional, since the characters were supposed to be the AIs that play the roles in literally every video game of the 90s (when someone would start a new game, they'd be sucked into it and have to play the roles to escape). So they were meant to look like the models of game characters of their time.
To be fair, your first impression of something tends to get biased towards its visual aesthetic, and a lot of early CGI just has NOT aged well.
@@Stratelier to be fair these kids are morons. todays parents have failed literally in every way to raise them correctly.
@@Stratelier Yeah, fair. It just hurts to hear so much hate of a show I loved as a kid 😅
Back in my day we had to walk fifteen miles in the snow to watch an episode of Reboot, and we loved Reboot enough to do it again the next Saturday. Kids these days…
The reason Nanny was drawn the way she was is because they were giving the perspective of toddlers (aka Muppet Babies)
I love how they were given no background to the Mighty Ducks. It was a mostly unrelated movie about kids playing hockey that they made into a real NHL team and then advertised it by making a cartoon with the as much of the stereotypical 90s "Awesome" factor as they could stuff into it. Not just random... chaotic sure, but not random
I saw the movie but never remembered they did a cartoon out of it.
8:02 What teacher has not used The Magic School bus for education? Tell me, I’ll wait 😂
Magic school bus, reading rainbow and bill nye were like the Trinity of teachers favorites 🤣
OAT MILK!!!!!?????? YOU JUST DESTROYED CEREAL AND SATURDAY MORNING CARTOONS FOR ME!!!!!
Not including Thundercats is criminal!
I watched so many cartoons in the 80s and 90s . The Real Ghostbusters, Thundercats, DuckTales, Tale Spin, Chip n Dale Rescue Rangers, Bonkers, Tom and Jerry Kids, Alvin and the Chipmunks, Gummi Bears, Recess, Doug, Pepper Ann, Inspector Gadget, Tiny Toons Animaniacs, X-Men, Darkwing Duck, Magic School Bus. Best Time being a kid.
Don’t forget to include Nick and CN shows from the 90s.
👍
How is Gargoyles Scary? It's one of the greatest cartoons ever made. You should actually have these kids actually sit down and watch an episode of these shows, instead of just watching intros. Actually sit down and watch an episode, then give their opinion on it
I loved Gargoyals! I'm actually in the middle of rewatching it, I heard it works for adults and so far it's ok.
Gargoyles was more my brother's era, but it was so cool that they spent so much time trying to teach like Macbeth to little kids
20:58 "His voice sounds like Mufasa" He actually voiced Mufasa in various video games, but he's more well known for this, and Dr. Facilier in "The Princess and the Frog".
"Super hero ducks playing hockey..? That's so random."
Welcome to 80s/90s cartoons, kid! It also had nothing to do with the Mighty Ducks live action movie. It's super random, indeed.
Yes it did, that's where the idea came from & the jersey they wore 🤦♂️
@NoNames-vw3bq i meant besides the name and hockey element. There are no alien superhero ducks in the movie. It's just about a kids' hockey team. They are connected in name and logo alone.
3:25 My man said horrible animation. That cuts deep for my 80's/90's family.
They said the animation of TMNT was horrible? Umm excuse me, it was all hand drawn, so you mean amazing and creative and innovative?
Kid's just don't understand.
As an 80's/ 90's kid i approve. I would have loved for them to have included the real ghostbusters and Thundercats
Reboot was created with a program called "3D Studio Max" . It was super groundbreaking at the time, and the program is still relevant. But it is used mostly to create animated logos and things like that, these days.
Its the same people who made the music video for "Money For Nothing" by Dire Straits and they are directly responsible for DECADES of advancement in CGI. Yeah season one looks stiff by modern standards, but its phenomenal how far they came in 9 years from that video. Then they tripled that progress in just 8 more years. Probably the only larger advancement is what happened with blender, but we don't talk about that...
Dude, Gargoyles would look sick on Yu-Gi-oh cards. Demona in a Harpie deck.
No captain planet? No fraggle rock?! Absolutely atrocious!
I'm in all honesty surprised with all the climate information out now in 2024 there hasn't been a Captain Planet reboot. I've seen Deviant Art of Captain Planet looking more updated and sick!
To be fair, Fraggle Rock wasn't a cartoon.
17:28 It took Rare 22 man-years, thousands of computer hours, and a million dollars to make Donkey Kong Country, which was mostly made up of a relative handful of static frames and small sprites. Conversely, each ReBoot episode was 25 full-screen frames per second for 23 minutes, with an average of 12 episodes coming out per year and each episode costing around $750,000.
How do you guys keep passing up Darkwing Duck for the cartoon episodes?
I'm going to sound so old when I say this...These children will never know the joy of waking up at 7am, sitting in front of the TV, eating cereal and just finding joy in a Saturday morning. I'd watch cartoons until 11:30 and then at 11:30 Nature of Omaha came on. I wouldn't get out of my pj's until after all my shows were done. 1980s cartoons were the BEST!
SO TRUE
The hate for Reboot was just wrong, I loved that show growing up.
Seriously, I feel like they needed context. Considering it was one of the first computer animated series and came out the year before Toy Story. Between that and Beast Wars, Mainframe was pretty cutting edge even if the visuals look kind of rough by today's standards.
@@stetre83 exactly
Fun fact: Canadian VA Mark Hildreth (in most Gundam series and as Terry Bogard in the Fatal Fury movies) starred in this.
No Thundercats and Silverhawks? No TaleSpin, DarkWing Duck, Duck Tales?
SHAME ON YOU MILENIALS.
Galaxy Rangers!
To be fair, they did miss ALOT of shows because they need to cramp everything in a 30min format... or else netizens and viewers would get bored (at least, that's the trend nowadays).
Something that surprised me, beyond the lack of respect for some of the cartoons, or not realizing that Reboot was advanced for the time, is that the blonde girl names She-Ra, but she didn't know He-Man ,who is her brother.
Same! Struggle to name he-man but instantly recognized she-ra 😅
Because she saw the Netflix series.
@@gamerbear84 Don't they ever reference He-Man? At least she must have associated the magic sword and the reference to Greyskull.
@@madago4785 He-Man is never referenced in the show.
@@gamerbear84 Yeah but they also rebooted he-man. Though that's not very girl centric.
These kids making fun of the animations back then are so cringe. It's cartoons from 80's and 90's, what do they expect?! 🙄
Their making fun of ReBoot was even more egregious, because the whole concept of the show was that they were *meant* to look like 90s video game models because they *were* 90s video game characters.
@@IceMetalPunkI played the video for Reboot! And I watched the show a little bit! The game was fun!!
The host let these kids look ridiculous. The guys would have told them important information about the cartoons. Like the fact that GI Joe is the whole organization, not just one guy. Also they would have explained that back then 3D animation was brand new in the 90's, and Reboot was actually very expensive to make then.
Surprised Captain Planet never came in
I got offended by their reaction for ReBoot. Hey, it was the early 90s and it was innovative at its time!
I think no other cartoon screams "MURICA!!" like G.I.Joe.
ThunderCats, Brave Star, FraggleRock, Defenders of The Earth, Johnny Quest, Thundar The Barbarian, She-Ra, Garfield, Duck Tales, Smurfs, Danger Mouse, Jetsons and Flintstones
Thundercats not being in this video is a tragedy.
Or Voltron!
@@markvolpe2305 Exactly!!
@@ThomasTheAlphaAndOmega8509 Voltron, Thundercats, and Transformers were my favorites back in the 80s!
Very true
Not even the Smurfs made this list?
I feel so old 😂😂. My first crush was the lead gargoyle. Don't come after me. I was weird. He saved Elisa the detective like every eposode lol.
Goliath was hot.. that voice like creamy butter... xD
No Transformers, Thundercats, Duck Tails?
Tales, not Tails.
I'm embarrassed for that kid that thought Duke was 'G.I. Joe.' It's like the time Ryan Stiles thought Kid Rock was a band.
Man, there are so many to choose from. Galaxy Rangers, Bravestar, Silver Hawks, Thundercats, Biker Mice From Mars, Captain Simian & The Space Monkeys, Earthworm Jim, Dungeons & Dragons, Smurfs, Snorks, Men in Black, Godzilla, Extreme Ghostbusters, Bionic Six and so many more. A lot of great memories. And Gargoyles was the best.
I feel like when you say Captain Simeon and the space monkeys you're supposed to get all loud and echoey or the space monkey part. This is from vague reculations though
Wow, these kids. Reboot was absolutely cutting edge 3d animation for its time. They have no idea what they are missing. The world needs a modern reboot of ReBoot
I was a teen and I was gagged when that came out. I was into writing stories at the time and one of the episodes inspired one section of a story I wrote during that time period. It was one of those 'Box episodes'. Sure the show didn't age well from a technological standpoint, but it was still a great show and revolutionary for it's time.
I remember the trash re imagination of it called Reboot the Guardian Code which was more like Code Lyoko story wise
Haha they thought that Animaniacs joke was inappropriate, oh they should watch the whole series! They got away with so much!
Gargoyles was one of the best cartoons ever, yes it was dark and could be scary and dealt with some heavy topics (anyone remember the gun safety episode?) but that's why it was so good! I hope some of them do watch these cartoons (I know some are either unavailable or have limited streaming options which sucks!), I think they'd like them
Gargoyles is still one of my favorite series. It was so well written.
Gargoyles was awesome. I used to watch it when the little one i baby sat on weekends was napping my final year of high school.
The theme song alone from Gargoyles was just so epic. It was also very beautiful and very powerful too.
@@kevinstull8552 It could just be nostalgia but it seems like theme songs of the 80s and 90s were the peak.
For the record the blonde guy wasn't G.I. Joe. That's the name of the Unit. ALL of the good guys where GI Joe's. The bad guys where Cobra
Right, it would have been obvious if they listened to the intro.
The disrespect of trashing reboot I hope Bob visits them and pulls them into one of the games
naw adult enzo...delete them
Yeah good luck surviving those games!
Gargoyles and ReBoot are a nine, hands down. The clips they showed don't do them justice. Turtles and Anamaniacs are solid 10s.
Some of what they showed weren’t Saturday morning cartoons, but after school cartoons primarily
Reboot was real good despite how it looked, especially the final season.
No transformers, silverhawks or thundercats!? WTF
Where is The Centurions, Thundercats. The SilverHawk, Bravestarr, The Super Mario Bros Super Show, Dinosaucer and Spiral Zone?
How does everyone keep forgetting about the Smurfs?
No slandering reboot is allowed, how dare u guys. They have no taste.
I loved Gargoyles. So good.
They absolutely should have used Magic School Bus and Schoolhouse Rock for everything.
My all time favorite cartoon back then (i was born in 85) was X-Men. The best cartoon there was. I loved Captain Planet too, but I won't argue it was the best. 😂
82, and I loved XMen.
Gargoyles was the bomb in the 90's
Damn right! I use to watch that show everytime it came on. I recently rewatched it and it just brought back memories its still good!!
@@kaykay5923 I haven't watched it since the 90's but it was my fave
I'm not taking this kind of slander from the same people that love trash like Adventure Time, Steven Universe, Regular Show, and Gumball.
You CANNOT show children ReBoot without giving them the context that it was the FIRST 30-minute TV show to be done fully in 3D Animation, and was mind-blowing stuff for the time, because all they think is that everything CG is supposed to look like a damn Pixar or Illumination production. It's easy for them to sit there and clown on it when they're totally uneducated. Not even gonna stick around to see what they think of Gargoyles, not sure I could handle that.
GI Joe is not a person! It’s the *team* not the blonde guy!
