(And I apologize for a random 30 seconds of black at the end. If I trim it out with CZcams's editor, it'll re-do the copyright check, which would probably delay it another 30 days)

Horace spending the whole show randomly loving Bridges only to fall in love with a woman named Bridget was one of the most satisfying pay offs I could have asked for
Bridget Balloon
Don’t forget he also hates a doctor named bridges
Honestly, the choice to name her Bridget was the best decision any screenwriter has made XD
@@CBCook in my opinion it was lazy to name her Bridget it’s like calling a cartoon crocodile “crocky” it would have been better if they had made her come from a family who built bridges for a long time
@@wraithreaper4533 But a cartoon crocodile IS a crocodile, she's not a bridge? I just think it's cool that they put thought into her name and didn't just name her like "Sarah" or "Rachel" that wouldn't add anything to the show.
The fact that Kaz has nine siblings, all with names that start with K and one's name is just the letter K, has lived rent free in my mind for years
I’m actually briefly bringing that up during the upcoming Elite Force video and I can’t remember which episode the line is from. Do you remember by chance?

Allen’s actor becoming an NFT bro , getting convicted of attempted murder, and claiming he has PTSD as an excuse sounds EXACTLY like the character
WHATTT
Some people were just born for a role
Some were also born to run over someone I guess
new guy dropped
Also he maybe wrote the creepypasta Eyeless Jack.
I’m sorry
WHAT?!
Everyone’s talking about Alan promoting NFTs but not about how he tried to KILL a man 😭
well that’s less funny 😂
honestly both of those things are equally as bad
the NFT thing is worse
😳😳😳
Jury: guilty
Alan: WHAT?!?!
Alan's actor promoting NFT's is honestly just the most in-character thing ever.
He was never acting he just walked on set and never left
@@Notsbaby After mighty med there was no more Devon there was only Allen
I was laughing my ass off!🤣
Im losing my mfing mind at this enigma of a man
I was genuinely laughing so hard when all the shit he searched up about him seemed incredibly in character.
Wallace and Clyde being super villains who make money off the merch of superheroes will forever be the best unspoken joke this show ever made
Yeah
i think that happened in ultimate spiderman where kingpin bought some big company that had trademark of spiderman and profited of spidey being a hero, which in turn made peter unable to defeat kingpin because every attempt only empowers him
or something like that
this one is still better, just not THAT original
That almost has the same energy as kingpen gaining Spider-Man’s trademark just to fund his methods of fucking with him
Me suena mucho a vought international
I don't think they make money
"Skylar" said on the "Kaz and Oliver" Podcast that the only reason she was chosen for the role was because she had gymnastics on her resume, meaning she could do the flips, she had literally never acted on a show before this.
It gives me the vibe of those movie adaptation musicals where they hire someone because they sing really well but can't act to say their lives.
LOL couldn't they have gotten a stunt double though since it's 80% acting 20% flips
At least she’s a good actor
Bruh I was about to comment saying Skylar's stunts were worse than mid. I haven't seen the show but in this video, she only did cartwheels and a front flip. A flip off a desk that she stepped up to for the flip. I figured from how bad it was that the reason why they casted her was for those, though. I didn't realise she also had no acting experience. Cartwheels are almost nothing in gymnastics, especially at that age.
Artistic gymnastics, tumbling, and tricking are all different disciplines - for action sequences, you generally look for someone who does tricking/martial arts. Given the timeline they're probably working with, I can't really blame them for having poorly choreographed stunts/fights.
Wasnt aang from the movie-that-shall-not-be-named mostly chosen from the martial arts reel he sent in or something? Well we all definitely saw his acting prowess 😅

Does everybody have a podcast nowadays?
@@PickyPaige that's the cycle of life my dear, start on TV end in podcast
@@wilh3rdwheel356 I don't mind it, if there's actual effort put into it to make it entertaining and it's not just "look at me I used to be famous give me money pls", it can offer insight into those people who might have been heroes to us or we simply grew up watching them and their experience and humanize them! I watched their episode with Karan Brar from Jessie and it was pretty fun, now I plan on watching their episode with Skylar's actress!
im happy someone mentioned the podcast
This better not be another Drake and Josh thing where it turns out the guys we thought were best friends turned out to be terrible to eachpther
The episode about Skylar being a princess in hiding in America because of a rebel group trying to take over the throne, and the gag about Genevieve was a reference to the Disney Channel original movie, Princess Protection Program, and I think everybody should know that, because that movie had an iron grip on me when I was 8
I thought of that movie immediately as well
I loved that movie
I hated that movie
That movie

I think the writers based Skylar Storm around Starfire from teen titans but Paris Brelec never saw that show so she basically played it as normal teenager but from space.
I always thought the writers based her off of America Chavez. Power wise at least.
@@mrxlr1369 I think Skylar Storm predates Chavez
Edit: actually they seem almost contemporaneous. Assuming the series was conceived of at least a year before production and the series didn't air until a year after the start of production, Storm would have been made mid to late 2011, around the same time Chavez made her debut (as a character in the Vengeance series by Joe Casey and Nick Dragotta), though I don't know the odds of the writers both finding a brand new comic series and basing a character off that new series.
@@johnmcauliffe8824 from what I checked, Chavez barely predates Skylar storm by 2 years
@@mrxlr1369 the first episode of mighty med may have aired in 2013 but shows take a lot of time to get to air. I assumed that production took about a year before it went to air, and the pitch development and pre production took another year, so the two characters likely originated around the same time as each other.
That makes way too much sense.
The 1950's villain being called "Red Scare" will forever be my favorite throw-away gag.
I thought this was one of the funniest gags in the show.
Can you explain i want to know
Nevermind i figured it out
@MortexBerri The 1950s was the Cold War, and the red scare was when everyone in the U.S. was accusing everyone else of being communist
@@danielreed7705ohhhh i thought it was red skull but that’s entirely different
That whole episode is honestly a banger.
i was getting a tour of a med school when the tour guide said something along the lines of "every doctor has watched at least one medial drama." and I was like "no i haven't" but then i remembered this masterpiece exists

Horace used his power to save the people Alan killed. /j
genuinely likely lmao
Sadly that means we can't get the dark spinoff about his early life and the struggle of deciding who to save...but it'd make a decent gag in line with the show's usual fare if it was canon, though.
It's the dumbest thing ever, but I get an unhealthy amount of joy out of the fact that Horace's way of preemptively announcing his presence to the villains he isn't aware of is a distance exclamation of "I love hallways!"

You know, the first episodes make it seems like Kaz has a photographic memory. In the first two episodes, Kaz takes a lot of 'imaginary commemorative photos' which is something I don't think too many people do. He's also the one who recognizes the blue tornado, who besides being a drawn character, and pretty bland looking, was also out of costume. Also when Kaz is asked to remember the contents of a comic, he recites the copyright page before describing the plot. I think Kaz being canonically photographic could have been a really funny recurring gag, especially since he's so impulsive and outwardly idiotic.
And since Oliver also presents these characteristics they could just both be completely idiotic people with photographic memory. Honestly that premise is a lot funnier than just them being nerds
@@markusflex1193 That seems quite likely and I wonder why they might have just not stick with it. Also, if you're interested, the idea of a not-so-bright person having photographic memory was done in a show called A.N.T Farm.

Something that's always amused me is how Lab Rats seemed really squeamish about using the words "kill" and "die", but Mighty Med had no such problem.
Also, side note: how could you not mention that Benny the medic is also Dopinder the cabbie from Deadpool?
Seriously bro take a shot every time someone says “take out” instead of “kill” in season 4 of lab rats
Yeah, Adventure Time for the first couple of seasons avoided the word “love” in some hilarious ways

Fun fact, Paris is my second cousin. The reason why she wasn’t the beast at acting is because this was her first show. While most of the other people had acting experience before, she was just modeling
omg say hi to her
Honestly she did fine, given the limited experience.
Saw her work on Alexa and Katie while watching with a younger cousin and she has clearly gotten more comfortable as an actress and has gained the training to build her career.

The kidney joke between Wallace and Clyde is bc they were on Greys Anatomy as conjoined twins and one of them had to give away their kidney to the other one. I only remember this bc I just bing watched Greys Anatomy and literally every actor was in that show at one time.

I like to believe they went to a normo hospital under fake names and all of Grey's Anatomy is just canon to mighty meds

Bradley Steve Perry and Jake T Austin have made a podcast and in an episode they talk about how abrupt the ending was for Mighty Med and how the team all thought there would be another season.
The podcast is hilarious and talks about their time at Disney with guests.
Which episode is this?
i think you may be referring to jake short and not jake t austin (max from wizards of waverly place)
The only thing I remember of this show is that Kaz says he has 12 siblings (11 living with him and another in prison) and that his parents don't keep track of them, meaning that Kaz can work much longer hours than Oliver because his parents don't notice when he's gone. Between his multiple siblings and home life, I thought they were setting up a reveal that Kaz was his parents' 7th son and had powers.
..... Is him being the 7th supposed to reference something?
@@JWuKong95 7th sons are lucky in many cultures and have powers/luck etc.
I hate how Alan owning nfts and having an attempted murder charge on him is completely in character

@@bluewuppo or you drive tf away
@@pohorex6834 not that easy when ur in fight or flight mode
@@bluewuppo if you are inside of a car and your car is getting kicked, you aren’t in fight or flight mode. You only enter fight or flight mode if you are in a life threatening situation and under immense distress. That situation isn’t life threatening, it’d have been life threatening if he wasn’t in the safety of his own car. Then he’d have an excuse. And fight or flight doesn’t work that way, your reaction is to do what you feel is the best way to survive. You don’t either “fight” or “flight” by default, your brain subconsciously choices how to get out of a situation as quickly and easily as possible. If it sees no route of escape, then it fights. That’s what “fight or flight” means
@@pohorex6834 whats considered a life-threatening situation is different for every person. you cant assume it isnt life-threatening to him.
you are ignorant, just because you wouldnt deem it life-threatening doesnt mean others wouldnt.
stop making assumptions and practice more empathy.
and no, fight or flight is not that simple. its an umbrella term for reactions under stress and fear. fight, flight, fawn, freeze, etc etc. it isnt just fight or flight, its the animalistic instinct of self-preservation

I think the reason why Horace isn’t in the theme song is because he doesn’t actually have that many episodes that revolve partially around him. Alan regularly gets B plot in the episode whereas Horace tends to just play the supporting role in the main plot.
You just described Davenport.
@@TheTekkenguy only difference is Davenport is in the theme song credits while Horace isn't
@@marlonclark1896 Yeah that’s my point. They play similar roles, so why does only Davenport get the credit? Maybe because Hal Sparks even at the time was a considerably bigger name than Carlos Lacamara.

@@TheTekkenguy I think it’s because he loves bridges
the lack of side characters in lab rats is something i never noticed before, and mighty med is an example of how well they can be utilised. Another show where side characters play pretty significant roles in B and A plots is Kickin' It on Disney XD. off the top of my head i can name at least ten recurring characters, many of whom were crucial players in the story as a whole. if you keep up with this disney XD series i'd love to see you talk about it one day. it was one of my favourites and the very first thing i rewatched when disney plus came out.
I also loved Kickin It
You just made me have the craziest unlock of memories of my life. I was thinking "TF is kicking it, must've been after my time." It wasn't, it wasn't after my time at all. I had repressed memories of this shows existence entirely with only snippets of memories that I'd never attributed to any particular show, and then after a quick google search the flood gates fucking spewed open. Wow.

As someone whose special interest is Tumblr Sexymen and whose favorite character is Horace, I don't think you understand how much you just blew my mind and made my week. I am going to be insufferable to my LR/MM friends.
@@octodaddy6628what do u mean by ur special interest being tumblr sexymen? like do u know about every tumblr sexy man like bill cypher and sans and whatnot or do u just know about tumblr sexy men overall. Ur special interest is so fascinating to me
@@bbykoo3963 I can tell you the history of the term online, some of the biggest events Sexyman wise (and some of the more obscure ones), talk about a bunch of patterns and then exceptions to those patterns, how the biggest ones went on to effect it as a whole, the different kinds of Tumblr Sexymen, etc etc etc. I'm actually working on a Google Slides presentation as we speak, lmao. However, it's worth noting that a lot of my knowledge is just straight up observation so about half my sources are just 'trust me bro,' so maybe take it all with a grain of salt just in case XD My longest time on record going over this whole thing was about four hours
@@octodaddy6628”My special interest is Tumlr Sexymen” is not a sentence I expected to read… ever. It’s amazing, really.
I love the dedication to play the Lab Rats' theme every time the show's title is mentioned.
You know Oliver being warned about becoming a villain makes complete sense if you take into account what happened with his mother...
2:03:00 while it’s not normally how boys act, it is nice to see male characters voice when they are frustrated, without it ruining their friendship. When you show that you can talk and try to fix things, it breaks the mold for kids who see this and are influenced by the show. They might learn to communicate feelings more. I’m glad to see communication like that especially in a Disney show
I don’t even think it’s highly unrealistic either tbh
@the hevy funny I actually use Reddit a lot. Like probably more than I should lol.
Tbf every single Disney sitcom with two male friends has that happen every other episode generally speaking post 1999.
Right. Didnt agree with his odd observation, implying that only girl friends have fights..& friends having some petty arguments is automatically a toxic relationship lol
they act more like brothers which makes their relationship accurate
When you are watching this retrospective and you realize you know one of the actors in Mighty Med....namely Megahertz (James Ryen) who is performing in a theater production I am working on right now (I am a production assistant, so I am backstage). It was just a funny moment of going James? Then jumping on IMDB and seeing, yup, James was on Mighty Med. Dude hasn't aged a day, I swear.
The only thing I have against this show is that the Keykeeper's enemy wasn't lock-themed. The Locksmith was RIGHT THERE
I think the reason Lab Rats has less specific characters, is because that show is focused on one specific family. Its the Davenport's story. While Mighty Med is focused on a superhero hospital along with the main characters, so more characters are needed.
I mean, not really? By the last season of Lab Rats the family aspect is pretty much gone with Davenport, his brother, and Tasha barely showing up
@@mysticdigital5936 True. Although, that is the first time I think they call Tasha mom though. Plus they also find out they have another brother, and bond a lot more with their real dad (Douglas). So still a lot of family related stuff going on.
@@mysticdigital5936 that's also arguably when everything started to go downhill, with more generalized stories and more flanderized
I just realized something, Oliver's mom is named Bridgette, BRIDGEtte, this show is a fucking absolute masterpiece.
......that was obvious. (Horus literally goes "I LOVE BRIDGETTE!" like how he does with bridges.)

The fact that Caduceo is literally just saying "Death's life, life's death" (Thanatoi bios. Bioi thanatos) is extremely pleasing.
The fact that you said the fact that shows the fact that you didn’t really need to say the fact that
@@kingpen5866 why the hell have you commented this exact thing 11 different times
You’re definitely right on the whole “they care way more about live-action” thing. Dana Terrace (creator of the recent animated show, The Owl House) has trashed Disney over and over again for their terrible executive decisions and she’s gotten little more than a polite “we’ll do better”
Disney really keeps screwing that show over
Ikr. The Owl House’s characters just feel genuine and great for the story compared to other animated shows. Even Netflix is canceling animation projects such as BoNe. Granted, they are kinda going down under but that department def got zapped compared to the live actions shows. Kinda sucks in this day and age for animation. Hope great series like The Dragon Prince and etc. hold the line for now.
Owl house is leagues better than this mighty pile of shit
Considering how much Disney animation is praised, and how much Disney live-action is hated, you really don't sound like you have the slightest idea what you're talking about.
@@mattpace1026 disney does not make good decisions
Something I'm surprised nobody else has realized is, Caduceo is clearly supposed to be this super legendary hero healer. The comic book geeks recognize his symbol instantly and even villains acknowledge his power enough to want to manipulate him into using it for their gain. But his only shown healing ability only has 5 uses, and only 2 of which were used on screen. Did he use the 3 first uses in such a dire situation that it made him a legend? Like did he rock up to a fight where The Great Defender, Tecton and The Crusher all had died and brought them back?
I think he has more powers than just revival. He's known as 'the healer', which suggests more advanced medicinal ability - it's just this one power takes more energy than any other, so he can only do it a certain number of times. It could be that Horace has any number of powers we just haven't been told about
Like the original series Dr Who lore - he can only regenerate 12 times, because it takes so much energy, but that doesn't stop him being able to ... use his mind-meld powers, for example.
@@sofh784 we're shown outright that he can basically press pause on anyone on command. Perhaps his other powers, if any, are more supportive like that. Not especially helpful for winning a fight, but enough to defend yourself and others
@@faultyvideos2215 Like I could see his powers being in the same Vein as Restoration magic in the Elder Scrolls series, he probably a one or two offensive abilities. But he’s mainly a supportive hero with a lot of healing and maybe buffing abilities
@@sofh784 They never said that he can only regenerate 12 times because there's a certain limit on the amount of energy he can expend. It was just the rules of his race. Then they gave him more. Then, he's from a different universe so nothing applies to them. AAAAAARRRRGGGGHHHHH
Maybe he's just a really good doctor
Bri being sexually attracted to Oliver because he subconsciously reminded her of her brother is something that will never be ever brought up, ever.
I recently took a class with Auguie Issac. I was also a HUGE fan of Mighty Med when I was a kid. It was litterally one of my favorite shows of all time. And I also had just gotten through rewatching it as an adult and I show up to class and there he was. He was a nice guy but I was way to nervous to ask actually ask about the show 😅
I always thought that her terrible acting was intentional to make her more awkward(like a starfire type thing)
I always felt some writer was a simp for Starfire and made her inspired by her bro!
See, that you point it out, yeah. The acting doesn't strike me so much as bad (I never thought it was bad, at its worse she still did good) but the way she talks genuinely does come across as someone who's trying to talk like a teenager.
I watched this in Danish and the voice actress also made it feel kind of like she had learned the language, but is fluid in it.
This might be my memory wanting to make it work, but if I remember correctly, it was like this. It was a good touch
I agree with other comments. I would love to see an in-depth view of “My Baby Sitter’s a Vampire.” I loved that show when I was a kid, and I was crushed when it ended on an “everyone dies?!” cliffhanger. Also, you can review the movie too
Edit: also Wizards of Waverley place. I loved that show too
Same! Loved it
wonder what were they planning for the rest of the series
ditto my baby sitter’s a vampire !
i would also love to see that, as someone who loved that show!! live action shows but with some kind of sci fi or supernatural twist were my favorite as a kid (which is why i loved lab rats as well) so much more interesting than just regular highschool drama or regular life stuff
Please do this
Fun fact: when I rewatched Mighty Med on Disney+ when Disney+ just came out I was going somewhere with my grandparents and I slept in the car. I had a very vivid dream about being in the show Mighty Med and interacting with the characters. I don’t really remember the dream because it was a long time ago but I remember feeling overwhelmed and confused when I woke up. It was the first and last time I’ve ever had a dream about a tv show.
Anyone else binging the genre of CZcams where people review entire shows start to finish and their spin offs?
Okay that Horace twist was honestly such a great situation.
To resurrect your fiancée only to learn she never loved you and was simply using you.
Also just, the Plot Twist did what it was meant to do. Twist the Plot.
They actually did explain how the hero's avoid being seen. The explanation was some of them move so fast that the human eye can't comprehend it so it's just like a thing of wind. Or some hero's freeze time when fighting the villain
And humans just being distracted on their phones
but somehow kaz and oliver aren’t ever affected by that
@@llookktt there's always going to be outliers
Throughout the entire show the heroes move slow enough for kaz Oliver and even regular civilians to see them, plus not all hero’s have super speed in fact characters super speed is considered it’s on separate power like how energy blasts would be considered it’s own power plus horris was probably joking and just froze kaz and Oliver to pretend to be moving to fast for them
Its sad that Mighty Med never got a chance to have a proper movie like Wizards did they could’ve done so much with the production value of a movie
“If by good you mean good at spinning in my chair, you tell me” gets me every time
Me and my bro as kids felt so crossed when Mighty Med ended. We kept waiting to see anything for a season 3 but nothing. Years later one of my younger family was watching Mighty Med and they just so happened to watch the last episode of the series on Disney plus, after it ended he asked us if season 3 just wasn't on Disney plus yet and we had to break the news to them that the show just ends there. They too felt crossed.
The greatest betrayal of our generation
Well technically it does continue with the lab rats elite force. That's the ending if your younger family is still interested
@@huntsman9316 well elite force didn’t finish its run, it ended on a cliffhanger
@@potatogaming7044 oh, I didn’t watch all of elite force, so that sucks
Right! Don't forget that they never bring up what happened in the ending of Mighty Med on Elite Force either. They basically left everything on a cliffhanger in both shows
When Horace revives Skylar, I swear he says the name "Thanatos", who is basically Greek mythology's Grim Reaper, who appeared to humans to carry them off to the underworld when the time allotted to them by the Fates had expired. If Horace is actually saying something in Greek or another language, I'd hope he is actually calling out to Thanatos because that would be some crazy story building for one character in a Disney show.
I could be a little off with what Thanatos does, but that'd still be cool.
I noticed that too! turns out "thantos" is also just the greek word for "death." I believe another comment said that his full incantation was "death lives life dead" or something like that. cool stuff.
And his name and symbol are both based on a greek god
his superhero name is also Caduceo the name of staff of the greek god Hermes which is often (improperly, his staff and that of the actual greek god of medicine, Asclepius look incredibly similar - Hermes has two snakes where Aclepius has one - and have been essentially fused into one symbol for both medicine and Hermes) used as a symbol for medicine related stuff (hospitals, pharmacies, etc.)
@@CallMeFi The Rod of Asclepius and Caduceo are only confused in the US. Everywhere else has the Rod of Asclepius as their symbol of medicine. This confusion also serves as an amazing metaphor for the American healthcare system as Hermes is the god of thieves, liars, and merchants.
2:51:27 I can't believe Keyan went all the way to vegas for this video he's so dedicated
23:30 The bridges joke was funnily enough explained as a stable time loop gag. Where Kaz and Oliver went back to 1950s, and told Horace about Bridges. And he thought about it and decided he loved bridges. It might be said later in the video but i noticed this now
Honestly, Mighty Med will always be a favorite of mine. It is a shame I never really got to see how it ended because of the weird crossover/transfer with Lab Rats, but honestly the idea of comic books being like history books of actual super hero's is a really clever idea, and for what it was it was a really fun ride overalll
True but I didn’t mind them being in the crossover of Lab Rats. It is a shame that the series did left on a cliffhanger cause views were down. I understand the actors of Leo & Adam wanted to move onto other projects but a cameo would have been nice
@@littlesparrow303 I agree that it would have been nice to see those characters as well
And it's not really the series crossover I minded, more that it felt like the show just cut off and was continued somewhere else
Honestly, next time I have Disney plus I should honestly check it out and see how it all went down 😅
They completely abandoned the setup for s3 to do that crossover show.
Honestly disney xd is severely underrated and in many ways was better than the main channel
@@apexhunter935 but is it better than jetix?
I remember watching both Mighty Med and Lab Rats and being an avid fan of both shows, so when I heard about the cross-over show I was really excited for the potential... then the pilot dropped and they just casually mentioned that the Mighty Med hospital was destroyed along with all the character insides leaving only Kaz, Oliver, Skylar as the sole survivors. Like what the heck was that? And the way it was never addressed within the context of Elite Force. Neither Kaz, Oliver, or Skylar ever brought up the destruction of the hospital or their feelings about the sudden death of all the hospital residents. An entire show's supporting cast who we gotten to know over the course of two season just killed, offscreen and never mentioned again. Lab Rats Elite Force did Mighty Med dirty, and the offscreen destruction of the hospital still irks me to this day. Also, greatly appreciate all the work you do to make these videos, thank you for unearthing these repressed memories and doing an amazingly produced deep dive.
Wow, that is very shitty of them to do! (I didn't know why people hated that spin-off aside from people saying that it was bad.)
Elite force killed my interest in Disney Channel as a whole
@@grubblewubbles technically it was Disney xd
it was very clear that the Lab Rats writers just took over (which you can tell by the lack of funny jokes which Mighty Med had and explaining powers like the audience is stupid)
Well, there was the whole plotline of them meeting a superhero friend of Skylar who survived. And how there are still superheroes out there whose names r on a list they had to keep away from the bad guys. I also hated how the combo show just got rid of characters from both shows. I think they could have handled all of them together. I also always thought if the show had lasted longer, they may have gone more in depth with what happened to Mighty Med and Bionic Island.
Sitcoms are really only entertaining when they are absolutely ludicrous in the best possible way. Mighty Med definitely fits that bill, and that's probably why I loved it so much when I was younger.
Skyler is the definition of getting an F in the class but having perfect attendance
When you were talking about how the Mighty Med characters being out if character in the crossover, while the Lab Rats characters are completely in character, it reminded me of how Quinton Reviews said the iCarly characters were completely out of character in the iCarly and Victorious crossover, meanwhile all the Victorious characters are exactly the same as they always are
yoo i just watched that video too! seems like these crossovers did the characters dirty,, each show had its own charms so i wish they couldve kept the different characters true to their character instead of just have characters of another show be guests in the other show's storyline
@Μαία I think it was either the last iCarly video, or the first Victorious video
@Μαία yep it's the first victorious video called "The Failure of Victorious"
Kinda reminds me of the Thundermans and the haunted Hathaway crossover which they f up rays character
@@stormbreak7003 really? man i totally forgot about that episode
The saddest thing about Skylar is that Paris is an amazing actress, as very easily showed by Alexa and Katie, but her lines and story were so underwhelming and overlooked she was completely backhanded in the show
also if you think those 2 are the twins with the most sexual tension you have obviously never seen Ouran High School Host Club
Is Alexa and Katie worth the watch?
@@analicollari2108 oh definitely, its mostly about how the 2 characters stay best friends throughout their struggles with one of the girls cancer, but its got some great humor and really well written characters. the first season is a little hard to get through at times (as is with most children's media) but its a great show that i totally recommend
To be fair Paris Berelc’s acting is fairly on par with Kelli Berglund’s.
@@TheTekkenguy I thought Kelli acted well in lab rats, no?
@@analicollari2108 -If nothing else, watch it for Dave, the best character in the whole show-
In all seriousness, yes, absolutely watch it. It’s got an excellent balance of humor and heart, and a great sense of world and characters.
This show was clearly made by people who love comic books and comic book movies. And it shows even in the smaller details. For example, 1:22:01 The assistant's name, "Bob", is a refrence to the Batman (1989) movie, where Joker's main henchman was also names Bob. He even got his own action figure, seriously
Hydra Bob
i have to respect you deciding the ask the hotel staff the full question about the fountain being in an old disney sitcom instead of just asking if they used to have a fountain
Bro I’ve been saying LGBTQ wrong for my entire life and no one ever corrected me until today. I literally thought the T came first. I never noticed. I’m such a clown I’m so sorry
Ba dum tis!!!
For real tho it’s ok at least you know now

@abdalla elshazali I think you mean Q-
That's why we should just stick with Q+ frfr
Don't worry, just say L+ and it will be all right
As one of the 7 kids who watched Mighty Med, I can attest that the show was really good, at least by Disney sitcom standards. In 4th and 5th grade, Disney XD would air this show before school ever morning so I'd watch it at breakfast every day. This retrospective took me back to those days.
I used to watch it too!! It was so good honestly. I miss it a lot.
I watched it too i dont think it was only 7 if it was only seven people who saw it it wouldnt have had the amount of seasons it has and also a spinoff
absolutely in the same boat
@@joaquincastillo8607
It’s a hyperbole, of course it wasn’t literally 7, I watched it too lol
It’s just to emphasize how underrated the show is
Bro fax I'm stilling laughing at the clips from the show now
So the writers decided that Kaz and Oliver's dynamic should be "failing marriage".
In S1 Ep8, a running gag occurs of using random things that Oliver likes to measure the weight of things. In the final battle, Oliver says “this weighs like 6000 trading cards”. He uses this to describe a spear that he could barely hold. A trading card weighs about 0.75 grams. If we translate this to pounds it shows that Oliver is almost to weak to the point he showed restrain in holding a 10 pound object. That is hilarious when you think about all the other things he’s done.
You have GOT to do another one of these. They do seem like a ton of work so I don't blame you if you won't do one for a while, but this video and the Lab Rats video are literally legendary. Some of the most binge-able content ever on CZcams
How about kickin' it
Really hope we get Kirby Buckets one day.
@@TheTekkenguy i remember that show what happened to it
I also really like the club penguin one
I'm here for how ever many he deside to make. I freaking love these long ass videos 😂
There is no way that The Crusher is weaker than Adam. I would like to point out the fact that he sent a doctor (aprox 180 pounds) flying across the entire room slamming into the wall, and the doctor would have probably have kept going if it wasn't for that wall. Secondly he has turned coal into diamonds, which I am pretty sure takes somewhere around 725,000 pounds of pressure per square inch. Another thing is most sites refer to Adam being around 10-20 times the strength of the normal person. Which talking in terms of pounds of pressure when squeezing your hand would be at max (assuming the average amount of pressure of a man, and him being 20 times stronger) 1460 compared to the highest recorded amount of pressure from The Crusher being 725,000 pounds. Grip strength doesn't always equate to how strong they are but someone that has a grip strength of 725,000 pounds is probably stronger then someone with the grip strength of 1460 pounds. This is probably mostly wrong, but this is just my 2 cents IG.
The lab rats writers mostly wrote the crossover
They nerftef him so hard :((
I like to believe that the crusher was weaker due to being sick, since he was in the hospital, and that’s why Adam beat him.
But the diamond feat was before they retconned him
Didn't adam stop a missile once?
Edit: just checked, he did in sink or swim
Unironically I'd love to see Horace in a more serialized show that wasn't as much as a comedy. His revival power so cool, expanding it with ideas about Greek mythology would have slapped??
I found it so interesting that Mighty Med pulled off multiple twist villains in a row, and 2 of them were Skylar. Like they legit did a "Skylar's powers turns out to make her evil" storyline and a "Skylar is secretly evil" storyline....IN THE SAME STORYLINE LIKE WHAT??
Dude. This guy exploring the sets of mighty med is the equivalent of no clipping through your favorite video game to explore
Yeah it is
something just feels enriching about wondering through what you never where thought to bother seeing
Fun fact: Horace’s resurrection power chant “Thanatoi bios bioi thanatos” translates from Greek to “Deaths life lives death.” Thought that was interesting
Ah and he's based off the Greek caduceus, very cool.
1:54:43 I love how alan’s VA just menacingly stands behind Gus’s VA
I know right
I loved Mighty Med as a kid, it was one of the last Disney sit-coms I ever watched. But I don't think I ever realized that I finished the show??? I remembered every episode described and the characters (Wallace and Clyde were my favs then and now) and I had no idea Elite Force existed, I think a part of me wanted Mighty Med to be my last sit-com so I left it that way.
Cozi Zuehlsdorff is actually a really talented singer. Kind of crazy seeing her name be associated with this random 2010's sitcom I'd only once heard of like 8 years ago.
Yeah, heard her be mentioned and I had to take a double take
what!?
Holy shit lol, she sang The Girl by Hellberg! I would never have known had you not pointed it out! Thanks dude!
@@yaltschuler Also Nevada, Way Back, Confessions, Where I'll be waiting. All some great songs if you haven't heard them or if you have and wanted to go back to them.
Dolphin Tale 1 and 2 was great by her!
alan's actor is the perfect example of method acting.
he's so good at it he's still doing it even with the show being over
I love how Megahertz casually knows where the hospital is with no explanation
Damn, those guys with the comic shop also play a pair of malicious (but not as bad as the real villains) twins who talk over each other and own a specialized store in Better Call Saul.
I was literally about to go look this up cause I thought they looked like the same guys lmfao
Now I kinda wish we DID get a Catastrophe vs Bridget. Since both are considered the strongest villains ever, it’d be cool to see how it’d go downz
Is Catastrophe powerful than Victor Krane(lab rats)
@@khaliekanderson2596 Most likely. Catastrophe is stated to be atleast galaxy-level in Season 1, but if Krane removes the Dyad, then he wins.
Amongst these recaps and mixed theories, I’m definitely thinking something similar was being set up. The idea that Kaz and Oliver’s powers would only work when they were together, and that possibly leading them to inherit the dyad and catastrophe’s powers to eventually fight Bridget. Of course we got Elite Force instead.
Maybe this would've been a plot point in season 3 where they try to use Wallace and Clyde to defeat Bridget, although they destroyed the amulet so that would be unlikely
So funny seeing ant farm art nerd and troubled brother gabe in a show together always loved that fact
It is funny cause they are basically playing the exact same characters at least personality wise!
It essentially is just Gabe and Fletcher
@@tuesdaygrey7506when I first saw the show I thought that was Gabe and Fletcher meeting each other and becoming friends lol
what makes it even better is that they reference Jake Short's time on ANT farm by having Oliver's character have a persona called Quimby Fletcher
okay it’s horrible but “i mean SORRY” is the funniest response to trying to run someone over with your car that i’ve ever heard
1:15:45 "ill always keep you in the loop, dont worry" sounded so genuine and sweet. thanks cuz i forgot who titanio was lmao
Look i don't want to laugh at that, but Alan's voice actor trying to commit murder and being into nfts is hilarious and fitting, kinda the same reaction i had when I learned that Eddie's voice actor in lab rats was considered "controversial" by a random "where are they now" video of lab rats
Oh no what did Will Forte do. You sure you got the right dude because his Wikipedia didn't say anything, neither did the 3 hour lab rats video.
@@channeleditor9335 yeah i don't remember that being mentioned anywhere else, but when that random video considered him controversial i nearly shat myself of laughter
@TheGlassesPro what jokes in particular?
Alan’s actor said he was acting in self defense, though I’m not going to get into whether or not he was lying.
it was so insane and just like no pauses between what happens in alan’s “where are they now” section it was comedic. i feel bad because it was a super serious thing but i was laughing from how insane it was out of context
I think it's very likely that MM actually had a higher budget than LR and just used wayyyy more of it on actors, hence why there were so many named background characters AND so many celebrity appearances, especially in sports stars. This also could contribute to why the main actors overall were better quality than LR. Honestly though, that shows how much more thought and passion went into the writing and showrunning of MM. It's clear the creators had a genuine passion for the world of superheroes and comic books and spent so much effort making their world true to the genre they were using, whereas LR seems more like just. An idea someone had and didn't really know what to do with. The creators weren't really interested in the world of LR, so background characters were entirely irrelevant, while in MM every single background character is still a part of the world the creators made, so of course they're going to make those characters vivid and unique, budget be damned
A very recent development that is really cool is that the actors for Kaz and Oliver now have a podcast they do together called ‘Hit The Brake’ and they had Skylar’s Actress on a few weeks back. It’s worth a watch.
As one of the seven kids that watched the hell out of Mighty Med back in the day I really appreciate this video. Like, seriously, when I saw this retrospective I had such a nostalgic whiplash 😂
I remember loving this show and lab rats, but honestly I’ve always preferred Mighty Med. I also remember that crossover and being so hyped for the crossover series and…proceeding not to watch it at all 😅
I agree with you on Mighty Med side characters vs Lab Rats side characters. Lab Rats side character problems are especially noticeable during the Bionic Island period when there should be a fixed number of bionic students(excluding the few times a student joining/leaving is part of the story) but named characters just disappear without explanation. In the Lab Rats finale they claim all the students are in the room in Giselle's lab, yet Spin, S1/Taylor, etc. aren't seen, it's just the Davenport kids, Bob and then unnamed extras. This can be contrasted to the Mighty Med finale where a lot of the wedding guests are named superhero we've seen in the hospital before, and the few notable absences like Techton can be handwaved as wasn't invited/busy.
I imagine the more powerful superheroes were making sure no villains could ruin Horace’s big day
I still remember some of my favorite jokes, like how Kaz can only draw umbrellas, Horace loving bridges, the "lettering, laddering, loitering, littering" bit, the part where Alan tries to fit in at school and 'researched' by watching musicals, and then Gus leads a dance number, the magnetic potato chip. Man I loved this show.
Just learned that the actor who plays Benny is the Indian Spider-Man in Across the Spider-Verse. The moment I heard his voice in 49:24, I immediately thought of “Chai Tea is tea, bro,” and it clicked to me.
OHHMY GOD THAT WAS BOTHERING ME THANK UUU
Imagine how much more effective heroes would be in this show if they stopping sending actual children to handle the most important missions.
the jokes that kaz makes about his english teacher’s wedding after answering the question about great expectations is actually kind of a great expectations joke too. like miss havisham, the teacher’s fiancé breaks off the engagement/wedding and turns out to be a criminal who wants to take her money/family name
Jokes only English nerds would get. I love it when shows do that.
I love when shows do this, especially when they actually understand the source material. Still mad at Girl Meets World for just making up a new plot for Sense and Sensibility. It’s about two sisters falling in love with different guys, not two best friends falling for the same guy, and there’s no friend who knows about everything and is driven insane. You can’t just decide that you want your story to parallel a classic over halfway through the show. These things need to be planned ahead of time, and you can’t just make up your own plot for an existing book. This was completely off topic, I’ve just been holding in a lot of resentment for this for years. Sorry.
@Kitty, I've never watched that show and now, knowing this, I am indescribably peeved about this.
I was pretty sad to find out Mighty Med just didn't get a season 3. We had the cliffhanger of Oliver's mom flying off with her new superpowers and then we jump to Lab Rats: Elite Force, where apparently all this stuff had happened that resulted in them getting powers but we never properly see any of it.
Well in the end of the 2 season they hug each other and stared to fly and realize they got some powers from the orb
Wallace and Clyde were a great comedic duo. I absolutely loved the scenes they had together, and it's really sad they didn't get much screentime past the end of their arc (though understandable).
I forgot how funny this show was. There's a lot of great setups in payoffs all over the place, with tons of environmental and physical humor as well as verbal jokes. Might have to sit down and rewatch it sometime.
About the spinoff: it's clear that Elite Force was being run mainly by the Lab Rats team, and it is fair that they wanted to write a new story for it, but it seems spiteful and disrespectful that they elected to wrap up Mighty Med's loose ends by destroying the hospital offscreen and writing Mr. Terror out of the plot entirely. I think there could have been less drastic ways to resolve that - even a simple time skip would have been better imo.
Then the character assassination of the trio - it's like the writers resented the crossover and did everything in their power to make the Lab Rats look cooler and better than the superheroes. The original crossover seemed to show that tension already, by making Adam out to be stronger than the Crusher.
Anyways, Mighty Med deserved a proper third season, not a terrible spinoff series, but at least it had a good run while it lasted.
Clyde being the one who steals everything might actually be a reference to him wanting to initially stay evil. This could also be further proven by the return of the Exterminator, who first debuted in the same episode where Clyde wanted to be evil, as opposed to Wallace, who wanted to turn over a new leaf.
If we don't get a Lab Rats: Elite Force review after this, this review series will basically end on a cliffhanger.
So either way it would be fitting.
Hahaha
I’m laughing cause it hurts
Every time the Lab Rats theme plays it triggers a visceral reaction in me due to how many times I heard it in the Lab Rats video I hope you’re proud of yourself.

2:30:50 you can see Kaz taking a bite of his ramen but the actor doesn’t, so he picks his fork up and then puts it back down. It gives the same vibes as the marching band scenes when the instruments don’t make physical contact
