November 8

On this day in random cartoon history, we’ve got the Mario Bros. meeting Elivs Parsley in 1989, Slappy getting back at her critics in 1993, Timmy reuniting with his pet hamster in a heartwarming 2002 classic, the bro’Town gang going to the beach in 2006, the bro’Town gang meeting aliens in 2007, Ed Edd n Eddy’s finale movie in 2009, the climax of Total Drama’s third season in 2010, and Sonic Boom premiering in 2014. A lotta wacky stuff today, but my heart goes out to the Big Picture Show.

= David Fane =

Apparently it's been 20 years since the release of Bro'Town! David, Oscar Knightley, and Madeleine Sami voiced characters in the animated series back in 2004!

"A modern day fairytale about five Auckland teenagers growing up in the big bad city, bro'Town chronicles the schoolboy misadventures of Vale, Valea, Sione, Mack and Jeff da Maori in a proudly suburban, non PC satire."

David shared some videos but I couldn't fit them all on tumblr-- so here's a link to the repo with more: https://ofmd-renewal-repo.knowledgeowl.com/help/david-fane-brotown-20-year-anniversary

= A Muse of Fyre =

Okay so I'm SURE you've seen the OFMD muppets around, but I got permission from the EXTREMELY talented @amuseoffyre to share them in the Recaps! I've been meaning to for weeks and then life got in the way--but Gypsy sharing her muppet seemed like the perfect time to spotlight them! If you haven't checked the OFMD Muppets out before, please oh please do! I cannot tell you just how brilliantly made and gorgeously DETAILED these are. From the intricate beads, to the facial hair, their expressions, these beautiful creations bring the OFMD Cast to life in muppet form! Every time I see them pop up on another platform, I continue to be astonished at the gorgeous craftsmanship! If you have a few minutes, please visit some of @amuseoffyre socials! Instagram especially has so many wonderful muppet posts! Thank you @amuseoffyre for bringing our beloved crew to life! More to come in upcoming recaps as there's SO MANY to see!

== Love Notes ==

Wow Lovelies. What a weekend huh? Yall have been clowning/honking (however you wanna describe it) for days now and it's so incredibly uplifting to see! It feels like the beginning of the year again, all buzzing with life in the fandom!

I've seen lots of mixed emotions on the subject of renewal today, so tonight I just want to send you a couple reminders. If you aren't feeling up to Honking for any reason, whether that be that the ups and downs of the cancellation/renewal news, or you've got things going on in your life, or you just don't want to get your hopes up again-- please know, that is OKAY. If you are honking your head off, tweeting, tumbling, drawing, writing, creating, and putting your whole soul into the clowning after David's tweet on Friday -- That's OKAY too. If you're passively keeping an eye on things, waiting for news, or focused on other things-- that's also OKAY. Every single one of us experienced OFMD different from each other. Every single one of us experienced grief from the cancellation differently from one another. Every single one of us has or has not begun to heal differently. If someone is having fun honking-- that's great, keeping doing it babes! If you're feeling like you just can't bear the disappointment again if something goes wrong-- you do what you need to take care of yourself m'dears! Don't push yourself in a way that makes you feel worse. There's no wrong answer here in how to be involved in what's happening right now. Be kind to one another, and let yourself and others do their thing-- and all is well <3 No matter what happens, we're still here for you crew-- we still care. Don't feel bad for how you are coping and engaging with the fandom right now. Just be yourself. Goodnight lovelies, I hope the week ahead treats you with kindness and healing.

We’re all giant idiots, my good bro

THE BROCALYPSE

[aorticsims]

Marcus Flexor, or Marcus Flex as his roommates and friends call him, gives off the vibes of “I’m really dangerous and edgy, stay away from me”, with his physique and his rampant dog, but in reality he’s quite the sweetheart. he cares for his friends as much as he does his family, and he runs a public fitness club. Anyone else think he has a thick Londoner accent like Stormzy or Phoenix from Valorant?

Name: Marcus Flex(or) Pronouns: he/him Age: Young Adult Career/Schooling: Lifeguard/3 with an Drama degree Aspiration: Friend of the World Personality: Pleasure, with secondary Romance Traits: Bro, Noncommittal, Active Family: Son of Delilah and Max Flexor, Brother of Declan Flexor Zodiac: Cancer Likes: Fitness, Grey, Blues Music, Orange, Wellness, Focus Music, DJ Booth Music, Rock Climbing Dislikes: Storybook Decor, Queen Anne Decor Hobby: Fitness Skills: Charisma/4, Fitness/7 Clubs: BroTown, Partihaus, Powerhouse

Rocky is Marcus’ Doberman that his family let him keep when he moved out. He’s smart, loyal to his owner and quite aggressive. Just like ol’ Marc, except for the aggressive part.

Name: Rocky Flex Age: Adult Species/Breed: Dog/Doberman Pinscher Traits: Loyal, Aggressive, Smart Owner(s): Marcus Flex, previously Max and Delilah Flexor

Jonny, Simone and Charithra 😍😍😍

They are all gorgeous

Jonny listens so attentively

Simone sounds nervous but I would be too

Newton shoutout…he should be there! With a little bow tie

Brotown 😂

I could also listen to Jonny talk all day

“Fans are apart of the Bridgerton family” He’s so sweet

Material Girl but make it Bridgerton

November 15

I’m gonna keep this day in random cartoon history short, because I’m busy. Pepelo has a hellish time in Heaven in 2007, Ezekiel finally gets the million dollars in 2010, Wander wonders about a box in 2013, and the Warriors have their first creepy fan encounter in 2016. Wander’s the clear standout of these IMO.

“A class of water” is underratedly funny

I’ll admit I laughed 😂
