Post your obscure shows you remember but nobody else does.

[kingofdragons]

Post what are some shows or cartoon that you watched and loved but nobody else seems to remember?

Time Squad, a cartoon about a muscle-bound Time Cop from the far future and his gay android lover who adopt a hapless early 21th century History nerd orphan boy, he helps them as they travel through time to fix what once went wrong and becoming a family in the process.

Well if I post my obscure shows that no one else remembers but me, that means it’s no longer an obscure show that no one remembers but me, does it?


You’ll have to excuse my smartass remark, it’s a result of me not being able to come up with one that hasn’t already been made non-obscure because of Jordan Fringe
Case in point:

so? post one anyway
and well speaking of obscure....who the hell is Jordan Fringe?

Edit: oh a Youtuber...sigh, I guess I shouldn't be surprised. Maybe in the future todays young generation will make threads about obscure Youtubers only they seem to remember

I thought i was the only one that remembered Time Squad with the buff dude lookin like Captain Falcon low-key lol!

and speaking of old and super obscure cartoons from years ago, i'd remembered The Secret Show and Kappa Mikey being my all time favorites on Nicktoons.

You just blew some spiderwebs from my decrepit brain


I remember a few other late Hanna Barbera shows. Like these:

 

[Johnathan Smikey]

There is this show I know for a FACT I watched when I was a kid. I don't know if it was local or somewhat national, but it is so obscure I haven't found any mentions anywhere on the internet.

It was a show that starred a grandmother and 3 or 4 differently colored puppets. The only ones I remember distinctively is the grumpy one (either red or purple) and a happy one (I forgot the design, but I believe he was yellow). The reason I remember it was because there was a section in the show that had a "Frutiger Aero" feel to it, that mainly described what happened in the episode and the lesson. Anytime someone mentions Aero, I immediately think of this show.

I don't know if my rotting brain is making shit up or if this was an actual show, but I swear this was real. it was so long ago, like in 2012 or 2013, when I watched it as a little kid.

I didn't know that abomination, and now I wish I could forget seeing it.

i have this memory of a cartoon, it's an intro of a show about crocodiles, and the camera is flying by through them while they're in what looks like a river and showering in it, but i honestly can't remember the name of it at all

i even had friends help me try to hunt it down on the internet one night but everything we found just wasn't it

maybe for all i know it's not even a show itself but one of those random shorts that play on like cartoon network/nick/disney channel but i didn't have disney back then, and i'm very sure it was on cartoon network

it will forever remain a mystery

 

[TotzOnGaming]

I remember watching this as a kid back in elementary cuz' a certain classmate of mine keeps telling me how creepy it was. Then I watched it and was hooked.

 

[Esidemoken]

These two, and I was annoyed that they didn't have an ending.

 

[Abecero]

Gonna throw everyone for a loop with this one.
So, way back when I was a young'un with a modded PS1 (who didn't have one, lol), I got a game called Monkey Magic, a pretty good 2.5D action/puzzle platformer with quite some great sprite artwork, lots of voice clips, and animated cutscenes.

Back then, as I didn't knew english, plus the game was too difficult for dumb young me, I never got far into the game much, and eventually the game became a distant memory of sorts.

For a while now, I've been on a kick of replaying/retrying games from my childhood, to actually finish them and see if they held up to what I remember, and for this one here, I'd say it's quite close to being an hidden gem, but a few flaws keep it from being that good. (For one thing, the final boss is just stupid easy and not satisfying at all, meh)

Something that has always puzzled me about this game were the animated cutscenes, because they look like ripped straight out from a cartoon/anime, and in the game itself, characters and scenarios aren't fully/clearly explained, as if you're expected to already know characters and story. This would make you think this game's based on an actual cartoon/anime series, but, for the longest time, I only knew of this game...

...until recently, when telling about the game to a friend, I look up screenshots and such to share, and I find out: it IS based on a cartoon/anime of the same name!

To say I was surprised at finding this out, well, that would be an understatement, I solved this mystery I've always had with this game for so long, heh. All I had to do was a google search, dumbass me. xd

So yeah, wanna talk obscure, here's a show that even I didn't knew about until recently, lol. It's on youtube, if anyone wants to check it out.

Also, if anyone's wondering there, about the art there looking familiar, its because Susumu Matsushita did the artwork and character design, he's done a lot of works for a ton of games, mangas, and whatnot, like Motor Toon Grand Prix, or the Adventure Island series to name a few.

 

[Spyrone]

A few that might be. First, there's Spaced, which I only discovered a year or two after it ended when I turned on the Zombometer special feature in Shaun Of The Dead. The Resident Evil 2 episode is the shit.

Secondly, Superjail! It's probably the best show that [as] did that very few people seem to remember. Most Adult Swim fans I've talked to only know about Rick and Morty, ATHF, The Eric Andre Show, Metalocalypse and Squidbillies, and maybe The Tim And Eric Awesome Show, Great Job!

The third one is really obscure, and I've only really seen the old VHS english subs they had of it. It's called Montana Jones, and it's basically Indiana Jones with anthropomorphic cats and really hilarious poorly translated subtitles, like YOUR NEVER TO YOUNG TO LIVE LIFE EXTREME TO THE MAX!!!

I also wanna mention the Viewtiful Joe anime they had, but I honestly hated the english version of that. The voice actor they picked for Joe was pretty annoying IMO.

 

[AncientBehemoth]

Any Poles here? Used to watch this as a kid. GOD! I wanted to have that electro suit. Right show called Spellbinders.

 

[NotReallyHere]

Reading these posts is making me feel old in so many ways

On the one hand, I haven't heard of many of the newer animated series that have been mentioned. But is fascinating to see how cartoons evolved and changed with later generations.

From my own generation, I loved Freakazoid! Glad to see it posted. I probably saw damn near every episode, and still sing the theme song to my cats on a regular basis. Was a big fan of the Earthworm Jim cartoon from that same era. Heck, they may have even aired back-to-back, at one point.

Also, today I learned that Farscape didn't have a proper ending?? Next thing you'll tell me is that the same was true for Sliders! Wait a sec...

My entry would be this fever-dream of a show. I was probably a little too young to be watching it when it aired (and the fact that it was on cable was a dead giveaway that I should've been averting my eyes) but it stuck with / haunted me for years after I first watched it. But what can I say, it definitely wasn't the typical Fox Kids / Kids WB faire that was on earlier in the day...
