A Review that was literally almost 2 Years in the making. The reason this review was in production for as long as it was, was due to my co-op partner being busy in real life. So I decided to occupy myself with other side projects to keep myself busy, while also waiting for Gem at the same time
and this review ended up being delayed due to stress and being overwhelmed with how much work I had for this review, and I ended up getting occupied with other things. As well as getting things done around the house for my mom, and when I focus on one thing. It makes it hard for me to focus on the other
Which is why I'm also taking a bit of a break after this video, because i do need to relax. As this video. While I'm glad its finished, gave me a lot of stress and anxiety
and this review is on, what i consider. The 2nd Worst Show I reviewed in Sean's Network Reviews so far, yes. I consider this show to be worse than both The Tom and Jerry Comedy Show and Ollie's Pack, the only reason I don't consider this show to be as bad as Thundercats Roar. Because that show annoyed me a lot more, and actually gave me a headache

I agree. Gus is another definition of "Jerks Are Worse than Villains".
Not quite what I expected, but I enjoyed the review nonetheless.
I'm just glad I am able to bring out something for my viewers. And yours too, Sean.
Be rooting for ya on your reviews, buddy.
Hi there! I’m me from the future! So I don’t know if you take requests, but these two might be interesting. I want you to review Catscratch (2005) and It’s A Big Big World (2006). For It’s A Big Big World, I want this show to more recognizable for everyone. People had just been forgetting about it, so I think it’s time to bring back the memories! As for Catscratch, this show might be made for you. I mean, who doesn’t love a good ol’ comedy show? I know you have A LOT of shows to binge at the moment, but still. I await your review my fellow reviewer.
This was a great review 10/10
You and Gem really put in work and the chemistry was perfect
The best you ever did with someone Sean.
This was enjoyable to sit through.
Heya, I saw you promoting your video on Blaze's server and really wanted to give it a shot!
I completely respect your opinion, I personally had a lot of fun with Robotboy and find it pretty good (I personally love the action, Tommy teaching Robotboy new concepts/his friendship with him, and how funny the villains can be) but definitely agree that some voice acting choices, GUS, and depiction of abuse in the family along with needing to keep Robotboy a secret could've used more time to iron out.
I have a feeling it did want to be episodic with continuity peeking here and there but the episode order (and that finale) really hampers it.
It's funny it was mentioned that there's more gross-out as the show progresses because yeah, a writer on Ren and Stimpy, Bob Camp, was hired to direct the second season for Robotboy but he was more in it for the money.
Overall your review is solid, insightful, funny, and engaging (funnily enough, C.H.O.P is one of my favorite episodes of the show too!). My only critique would be that the on-screen text can last a few seconds longer, it can be tricky to pause and read it when it only lasts for three seconds. Subbed!
and i respect your opinion too. I just don't like the show on a personal level, because there were several points where it rubbed me the wrong way (Gus, the other characters disregarding Tommy's personal space, Dwight and Donnie, and the grossout) and when the show didn't make me either frustrated or uncomfortable. I was honestly very bored, I didn't mention this in my review. But the episode 'Small Problems' besides that one commercial and the pacing problems, I was glad that the episode didn't have Dwight or Gus in there. Because both of them along with Donnie, single handedly sours the experience. The episode in general was just kind of bland
Though, if the show was rebooted. I would definitely give a shot, although. There would have to be so many things that would need to be fixed up
For instance, I mentioned in my review that Professor Moshimo should have given robot boy to someone who is older instead. Given that in the show's universe, he is a popular inventor
In the reboot. Maybe they could make new incarnations of the characters and make them adults instead, and also give Robot Boy a skin suit. So that way he could live like a normal boy like he says he wants to do in the show
@HolyGoldenCarter
I always respect people who agree to disagree opinions without causing a ruckus.
Anyways, as much as I hated the show, I thought Robotboy had the potential to be one of CN's classic or best shows. But it squandered it with... Well, you've seen the entire review so you should know the problems we've mentioned.
Maybe if Robotboy had better writing, consistency on its lore, give us legit funny moments, perhaps put a new spin on the idea a little more, GET RID OF GUS or make him better, it might've been a sure hit.
Also, LOL. You like the CHOP episode. And that's OK, I too believe CHOP is the best episode out of all of them. (even if it's a strange parody to Knight Rider) As it stands, Robotboy is a failure. But I wouldn't mind Robotboy getting another chance with a reboot and ACTUALLY make it better. I'd watch it.
I just realized
Gus is the predecessor to Jeffy
Pretty good review! Although I have to mention about some fans defending the show with poor reasonings. This also apply to those who are nostalgia blind about Robotboy and thought everyone said the sucked were completely wrong. Despite the fact, it was the harsh truth that the show didn't age really well. And I only saw episodes as a kid, but incomplete because I switch to another channel, I only remember that online flash game that was way too hard for kids to beat. And yeah, this show was a lot, lot more worst than I vaguely remember.
Let be honest here, the only reason why this cartoon has a following is because Debs Turnbull is hot (also the Pe Teacher & Mona Lethal).
You got that
I like cartoon and anime
Honestly, I kinda like that one enraged Nagito sprite that Gem used on occasion. Any idea where you found it?
He gave it to me
Sean if I may ask this: Which father do you think is worse? Dwight Turnbull or modern Peter Griffin?
I honestly have no clue. Its basically a pick your poison scenario
My younger self loves gross out humor. My older self hates it. My standards were pretty low as a kid.
