all the toons of toonville USA quickly gathered for my funeral. this was the first death that toonville had ever had within its borders, so the processions were brief and crass. many of them did not know what had happened to me, and arrived jovial with gifts and favors to share with one another.

a whole line of red and blue convertibles filled the one lane street that led to my body. since everyone in town knew each other, they engaged in bright lively conversation about all the sweet memories they had of me. my birthday, my bris, my several rushed visits to the toon hospital were all discussed among the townsfolk who shared their popping candies and hot sodas that they had prepared for the celebration.

Cowboy Frito and Juliet Juniper (one of toonvilles hottest couples) brought a boquet of my favorite treats in apparent memory of me. Dr Lollipop and his beau Beauty Bee were especially excited to witness my body, flayed and broken, as they had never seen one before. Fashionista Frida Frizzlemeister was dressed from head to toe in the most dazzling outfit she had, with a black and white photograph of my own head featured as the centerpiece to her famously glitzy bouquet.

gathered in thousands of seats surrounding my thick, red, plastic coffin, the show was finally on the road. despite being delayed a half hour (the felt arms of the pallbearer made it difficult to actually get the dang thing near my ready grave!), the mood was light, as everyone in attendance were best friends. scattered lines of conversation quickly concluded as Pastor Paisley cleared his throat to begin his eulogy- at least he tried! pranks were all the rage in toonville, and who else but Scoots McBuzz would spit a hot wad of greasegum right at him. Paisley, experienced from his many sunday school classes over the years, grabbed his toupee and ducked down-causing the gum to stick right onto my fisher price brand tomb.

a long pause filled the air, followed by bright laughter at such a farce. in fact, all of toonville decided to cover my final resting place in bits of chewed paper, bottlecaps, smile stickers (the lowest form of their complex currency) and all kinds of knick knacks while hollering with laughter. and what could cap off such a good time like a hearty meal? Chef Al LaRonge had prepared a veritable feast for the hungry attendees, who stuffed their mouths with gooey, cheesy pizza, hot pepper patties and classic peanut butter chocolate superbars.

as the sun set, Mayor Megamouth of toonville declared their first funeral a complete success and thanked everyone for being a part of such a touching event. "he knew every one of you, and would have loved to know he caused such a record turnout among the toontopians!" after cheery "hip, hip, hooray!" and a final goodbye towards my flesh, the now urine-soaked coffin was marched straight into the freshly built mausoleum, the only gravesite to be found in the brand new toonville boneyard.

given the limited use of the land, it was eventually folded into the soda treatment plant. over time, my final resting place became stained with the colors and smell of sarsaparilla, caramel, and beetroot. the foundation eventually buckled beneath the sagging heft of the pop-drenched wood that surrounded my now bleached bones on the fourth of july, the sounds of creaking and splintering masked underneath the no-expenses-spared fireworks show. shapes of cakes and pies filled the air as my remains were carried out to the stinking sea.

Happy New Year’s Eve! Here’s some more translations

Minor Differences:

- Warden refers to his father as the prison local originally, but in Spanish he’s called the jail boss

- Jared says real jails don’t work, while in English originally he says they never work

Major Differences:

- Alice refers to Jackknife as a weirdo in Spanish, the word “rarito” can still be used as a translation for creep however, Alice also says they stopped him as opposed to picking him up as well as say he just got out of real jail instead of not lasting for more than a minute there

English:

“We picked up this creep at 0-900 hours, haven’t been out of real jail for more than a minute”

Spanish:

“We stopped this weirdo at T-900 hours, he just got out of real jail”

- Warden originally says that the world isn’t ready for his methods, meanwhile in Spanish, he says it WASNT ready for them

English:

“…but the world isn’t ready for my methods!”

Spanish:

“…but the world wasn’t ready for my methods!”

A more literal translation would be “pero el mundo no esta listo para mis métodos!”

And that concludes translations for this clip! I’ll upload the last translation for this episode later and we can finally move on to one of my favorites, Superbar!

Superjail #2: “Superbar” | September 28, 2008 - 11:45PM | S01E01

Superjail! It’s back, baby! The darling of The Night of 1000 Pilots roars back onto our small screens. Glad to have it back; It’s been a very long time since I’ve watched through this show, and I’m not entirely positive I saw every single episode.

Superjail is formulaic. But, it’s also very, very funny and well animated, so you rarely feel how formulaic it is. Jailbot apprehends the recidivist Jackknife who commits crimes in the real world. Jailbot brings Jackknife to Superjail. A Thematic story unfolds that builds towards a big fight filled with violent sight-gags. Jackknife is seen escaping in the background. Repeat. 

In this one, Jackknife is at a carnival on a pier, where he darts a guy in the face to steal the carnival prize and tries to make a getaway on a rich family’s speedboat. Jailbot shows up in boat form and takes Jackknife away. 

At Superjail, the Warden wants to ask Alice out for a drink. For this to happen, he needs to build a bar in Superjail, which he does. This hearkens back to Bar Fight, Christy Karacas and  Stephen Warbrick’s 2001 short film that is set in a bar where a crazy fight breaks out. I’m pretty sure I mentioned this on the write-up for Superjail’s Bunny Love pilot, but it’s basically a prototype for this show.

The Warden gets jealous when Alice agrees to meet him at Superjail’s new watering hole, but brings a date; a prisoner she wants to bone. The prisoner is not there on his own accord; in fact he at one point bites his own head off to free himself from bondage when Alice ties him up at the bar. Despite now being a severed head squirming around on the bar counter, the Warden still tries to drunkenly pick a fight with him.

One of the bar patrons is disgusted by the condition of the men’s room (where a pile of naked prisoners are playing a lewd game of Twister), so he enters the pristine and empty ladies room. He gets fed up with an animatronic wall-display of the Warden and punches it, which puts a hole through the wall. That’s when he finds out that Superjail’s Seagate is just on the other side of the bathroom, and he enacts a plan to escape through it. 

Jared, a recovering alcoholic who is cruelly shoved into the role of Superjail’s bartender, winds up getting a drop of alcohol on his tongue which triggers a full-on relapse. He bitterly goes into the Warden’s office while puzzled on hooch and starts pushing random buttons, one of which open the seagate, causing the ocean to rush into Superjail’s bar and spurring the episode’s customary themed melee. This involves Jellyfish, Swordfish, Tridents wielded by mermen on sea horses, piranhas, et al. The part where the squid squirts so much ink it fills the entire screen is really cool. The show is very good at mixing up the visuals to keep things engaging. 

Jackknife escapes, and he creepily visits the teenage daughter of the rich family, in a final scene that looks like it’s more from a horror movie than a comedy. It’s difficult to watch comedy of almost any significant vintage and think YOU COULD NEVER MAKE BLAZING SADDLES, I MEAN, SUPERJAIL TODAY! But the show’s spirit is so fun despite it’s unpleasant-on-paper subject matter that it’s difficult to get truly mad at it. I said a lot of this in the Bunny Love. This applies to Alice, the walking trans joke. As misguided as some of that humor may seem today, I get the sense that the creators of the show like her as a character, and she's rarely (if ever) misgendered by her co-workers. It's not perfect, but it's not nothing.

There’s also a new prisoner guy, I think. He’s the guy who punches the hole in the wall. Maybe he was in “Bunny Love” but I remember thinking “oh, this is the main character on this show, now” the first time I saw this. He sorta seemed like an attempt to make a likable main prisoner guy. It’s the one added element to this show that felt like the biggest evolution from pilot to series. It’s fairly subtle, but it stuck out to me. It sorta makes the show feel more like a sitcom and less like an artsy-but-funny short film like Bunny Love does. 

Stray stuff: I think my favorite joke on this is when Alice shoves a plate of hot wings into a prisoner’s face, and it melts his skin off, so he dunks his whole head into a big barrel of bleu cheese to cool off. The Twins are in this, but they just sorta observe. At one point they go shirtless, and you can see they have quadruple nips. Didn't catch a Sealab 2021 reference when the prisoners were observing the underwater civilization, which I consider to be a good thing, fuck Sealab.

This episode is very good, and if it were my introduction to the series I’d probably be pretty impressed with it. But I feel the same way watching this as I do watching Robocop 2; that it’s about 80% as good as the original, but the original is one of the best things ever made, so it’s still satisfying. 

EPHEMERA CORNER:

MAIL BAG:

KON writes:

The Robin Bain bit (specifically her being nude and uncensored on DVD) never quite sat right with me because it seemed like it was by design a way to get easy-access nude tits into the hands of every 12 year old boy. Though I guess most kids would have had smartphones or at least unfettered internet access by then. And I didn't complain when the Whitest Kids I Like did it. Still, weird!

Yes, I agree! I think it's weird and suspicious when a show that doesn't have a built-in outlet for sleaze suddenly has sleaze in it. Not that I am saying nude female presenting nipples are SLEAZY, per-se, I just mean they are when Seth Green is involved.

Hate.

I have received hate for my characterization of Jason Todd in my ‘My School’s Local Mafia Boss’ AU! Again. 

God, what does it take for people to freaking realize how much time and energy authors put into their work? 

I’m gonna be copying and pasting some of the things I’ve said as replies from the fic here, because I think I covered everything there.

First off, why even bother reading if you hate characterization so much? People have been saying this for a long long time. Just click out. 

Second, what exactly do you expect from authors once you say that you don’t like their works? Do you expect an apology? Do you expect them to change everything they’re written? Like, I’ve written two whole series on that AU, one of which has 8 works, and the other which has 6 works. And there are multiple multi-chapter fics there. Or do you want them to give some hate back at you for some weird thirst for attention? Cuz believe it or not, that has happened.

You got three options, dear reader and commenter:

a) Don’t read. I guarantee that the authors don’t want you reading it anyway.

b) Use that amazing ability of yours to form words for a more superbar reason, like, oh I don’t know, commenting on the fics you do like

c) Write your own freaking fic, but leave other authors out of it

I have said, time and time again that this is, literally, fiction. It’s— oh come on! It’s legit in the word. Fanfiction. Characterizations vary with different people and it is that variousness that makes a fandom. It’s that difference of ideas and perspectives that makes the whole community beautiful. But when that difference is forced upon another difference, it just ruins the beauty of fandom.

For the people who don’t agree with my characterization and want to comment on it: many abused victims help and heal themselves by helping others heal. And just because Tim’s my favorite character and I am a sucker for Jason being a big brother to him, this fic is portrayed that way. It is very much favoritism and I am not ashamed of it.

I genuinely did do so much research on both the series like watching old clips, reading comic panels, reading posts with Red Hood vs Robin characterization and comparative characterization between Jason and other characters + trauma and medical related research. I did that for everyone lol. There's a reason why I write fanfiction. I've deep-dived into analyzations on tumblr and pinterest and talked about it to friends and my dad and formed my own conclusions for it and, idk, I've received like three or something comments that said they didn't like the characterization. I get that people are OOC here, but that's because I was concentrating on abuse and its effects along with the storyline.

I did so much research. My google docs are a mess.

And for the people who clicked out or kept quiet when they found a fic they didn’t like or didn’t agree with: Thank you. So much. Really. You are an amazing person and I hope you have a very nice day.

Thoughts On Nicky

Okay, hear me out: Nicky has got to be the only inmate in Superjail with the LEAST information on regarding his background. Hell, Turbie has more hints to his past than him.

Here's my headcanons/speculations:

He has poor eyesight (seen wearing glasses in 'Uh-oh, It's Magic'); maybe even has a false eye after the slaughter in 'Superbar', but keeps it a secret.

Likely in his late 30s/early 40s.

Could suffer from insomnia (I actually DREW this headcanon, but Tumblr flagged it cuz I guess they don't like men's nips...I'm afraid to post it again.) He always looks tired/drained.

Secretly has a foot fetish (or into bootblacking. Prolly BOTH??) - appeared to be betting with a boot once (Stingstress), seen trying to SMOKE A BOOT out of desperation (The Last Pack).

His dog dying in his worst memory (in 'Superhell') was the beginning of his downward spiral, resulting in his incarceration(?)

Nicky's past isn't mentioned because he hides that he worked in law enforcement/emergency services and he fucked up so bad he was arrested...we all PRAY he ain't a crooked cop.

That's all I got so far....enjoy.

[wannabeelf]

This video showed up in my recommended for some reason and I happened to click on it. I completely forgot Rax ever existed, but seeing that alligator drink bottle unlocked a core memory. Also the bit about the pasta bar has me questioning my reality.

There was a fast food place with a pasta bar that we used to go to all the time when I was a kid and I always got the pasta bar because I loved it. I always remembered it being Wendy's (and it may have been because they had the SuperBar for a time that had pasta), but now I'm questioning if it was actually Rax. I don't remember ever going to Rax when I was little, but we must have done because I remember holding that alligator drink bottle in my hand.

Anyway, whichever fast food place with a pasta bar that it was we used to go to... There was one time we went and I got my pasta bar, ate, and then we left. The instant my dad pulled out of the parking lot I got car sick really bad and then I refused to even look at a Wendy's for 15-20 years. If I've been blaming Wendy's for Rax's crime all this time...

FINALLY, ALL THE TRANSLATIONS I CAN PROVIDE FOR THE PILOT ARE DONE!

Not many notes I can provide for such a short clip, so I’ll write both English and Spanish clips for comparison

English:

“I couldn’t have planned it better myself”

“You did plan it sir!”

“Well, my plan tastes great I mean it could use a little salt but otherwise it tastes great!”

Spanish:

“I couldn’t have planned it better…”

“You planned it sir!”

“And my plan tastes great! Maybe it’s missing a pinch of salt but either way it’s delicious!”

Oh my god I am SO happy I finally posted this, I’m so sorry how long it took me, I sometimes forget to just log into tumblr plus I got hit with a stomach bug 2 days ago so that was nice (not) I’ve made a fast recovery thankfully and should be well by tomorrow

Now, we can FINALLY move on to Superbar!

Space Ghost Week

Space Ghost Coast to Coast #68: “Waiting for Edward” | December 25, 1998 | S05E11

Ending the season on an episode that’s just fine. Denis Leary joins the Ghost with his acerbic brand of being a jerk. Denis plays it roughly how you’d expect, by acting very CYNICAL. He’s a cool guy who speaks his mind, and you gotta respect that. 

I’m a little at odds with myself, because I’m pretty sure that the first time I saw this I literally thought Denis Leary was ACTUALLY VERY FUNNY AND COOL. I still appreciate him on some level; he does embody a very 90s ‘tude that is generally “my bag”. In fact I bet you a million space bucks that I at one time or another referred to this as one of my favorite episodes just because it has Denis Leary in it. I really was that much of a loser. But I’ve grown up.* I’ve changed.**  Nowadays I just wish he would stop smoking and ranting, I got school in the morning, sheesh! I

This one starts with a very long “Waiting.” title card intro. I’ve been told that this episode aired with different variations where the music that plays during it is changed out. I remember one time noticing that in the program schedule for this episode they actually added “(version B)” to the episode title. I think Kon, who knows and is actually very good friends with Space Ghost, told me that it meant there was different music, and that it was on purpose. I think. He’ll correct me.

 I have to tell you something: I recently downloaded the Superjail episode “Superbar” as-aired as part of it’s stealth premiere on April Fools Day 2008. It was a “fine cut” version that wasn’t final, and it had the “Waiting.” title card at the start of it. Was “Waiting.” some kind of genuine internal Cartoon Network thing that played before the episodes instead of a more traditional countdown lead-in or production slate or whatever? 

This one also ends with, instead of an episode number, a little bug in the corner that designates this episode as belonging to the “100 series”. To this day, I don’t know what that means. When I was just watching these on TV in random order I assumed they actually had reached 100 episodes and decided not to count them after that. I was wrong, and I’m still baffled by it. In my comic “Early Conan” (which I’m not linking to because the web hosting is about to expire and I’m gonna move it somewhere else eventually) I actually included a “100 series” reference when I hit strip 100.

Notable moment run-down: the very long “Waiting” intro being interrupted briefly with footage of Space Ghost with Zorak on his shoulders, doing something mysterious. Zorak telling Leary that he’s seen all of his movies and that he didn’t think any of them were very good.  Moltar trying to get Space Ghost to say “nice jacket, Fonzie” to Denis. Denis dismissively telling Space Ghost that he only agreed to be on the show because his kids like it, and Space Ghost singing the line back “so the feelings of your stupid kids are more important than mine”. Space Ghost’s spit-take gag turning everyone red. Appearances from Brak and Lokar, who hasn’t been seen in a while. 

There’s also an appearance from the Cartoon Gang, who did somewhat lengthy interstitials between shows on Cartoon Network. It was just a group of kids discussing cartoons. They weren���t too beloved, and they seemed like the product of a craven attempt to be more outwardly kid-friendly by putting real kids on camera. I didn’t really remember them at all, but for some reason I have strong memories of Evan Dorkin hilariously bad-mouthing them during a Space Ghost commentary track. In their thankfully brief segment, Space Ghost bores them to tears about “saving Christmas” and then yells at them for being layabouts. Christmas gets a special thanks in the credits. Hilarious. Hey, when did this air, anyway? I don’t feel like looking up.

That closes out another Space Ghost Week. We’ve only got one more Space Ghost Week for classic Ghost, then I’ll probably do another one covering the dreaded GameTap episodes. Until next time, uh… I can’t think of a Space Ghost reference to put here. Oh well.

*I have not grown up. **I have not changed.

MAIL BAG

Tonight we resume our Adult Swim programming. Yippee! Here are a bunch of SG Mail Bags:

it's a line from the smash hit mario movie. don't read the trades much, do ya?

I’m afraid I don’t believe you that Merrill Markoe’s dead dog Lewis is in the Mario Movie and that they say “Lewis Lectures here we come!”. I’m willing to be wrong about this, though.

its hard to explain how cool kevin smith was to people who were too old or too young to be there.

He’s simply too weird for words nowadays. But man, the run of Clerks, Mallrats, and Chasing Amy was gigantic if you were an easily-impressed teenager who liked indie movies in the 1990s. I sorta admire him for trying new-ish things after that though. I Stan Tusk.

Meeting!

(doing the three stooges “hello” thing) (Jason Mewes, revealed to be napping at Kevin Smith’s feet during his Space Ghost interview) “heh-leoh”

any tips for anyone looking into getting into space ghost?

I can see how it might be tough getting to Space Ghost; especially since younger people might not be able to latch onto it for various reasons. Saying to check out episodes based on the guests can backfire, and I’m sure some viewers consider all the guests to be impossibly ancient.

I got into Space Ghost by seeing whatever episodes were on randomly. References to other episodes would pique my interest and they’d pay off later when I finally got to them.

At some point I’ll probably produce a list of best episodes of Space Ghost, but I won’t right now. You could do worse just finding random “best episodes” lists or sorting one on IMDB.

If you’re the type of person who compulsively starts with a full chronological watch-through regardless of the advice you receive saying to do otherwise, I’d say do this: get whatever you can get your hands on (DVDs, torrent, streaming [it’s getting yanked from HBOMax soon]) and just go with that even if it’s missing stuff. Fill in the gaps later. Please know that the early episodes might not be the funniest things ever, but this is also one of the rare comedies that actually gets funnier as it goes along. There’s going to be references you don’t get, There’s still stuff about the show I don’t understand, either. 

This might be unorthodox but: Maybe watch the episodes or seasons in backwards order? That’s actually probably a very good idea. Okay, yeah, actually, just do that.
