Finally rewatching this in full as an adult now that it's on Tubi and I gotta say, this is still a top tier cartoon. Thought we should have a thread. Favorite episode? Favorite invention? Are you a Monkey type of anon? Or a Justice Friends kind of guy?
>>152699066An episode that I always loved. The monster designs for Dee Dee were all really interesting looking
>>152699066Monkey was coolAs an adult, I don't think I appreciated how good Justice Friends was. I don't know one about favorite but an episode that sticks is when his lightbulb went out and he went to the store to get another. And at the end DeeDee says "you know they're all going to go out"
>>152699066>Favorite episode? Not sure, I like many, I like the Speed Racer guy, the one where Dexter explores his old dilapidated lab, the DieHard one, the one where he plays D&D with his friends> Favorite invention?Giant robots, the red evil robots from Egotrip> Are you a Monkey type of anon? Or a Justice Friends kind of guy?Pic.
>mfw the Simion episode is just as kino as I remember
>>152699097>As an adult, I don't think I appreciated how good Justice Friends wasThis is the best part of the show. Really surprised it didn't get a spinoff or at least more of the shorts
>>152699066Something underated about dexter is the sound design, to this day I remember the sound of Dexter and DeeDee steps, the sound of Dexter tighting a bolt or typing on the computer, even the sound of the broken lightbulb from >>152699097
>>152699116>An artist will paint the same tree for the rest of his lifeMan Genney sure loves monkey men
>>152699187Genndy*
>>152699125They should have made a Justice Friends spinoff when superhero movies became a thing.
While we have our personal favorites, there's some episodes that should have never been made. The detention episode for one. That fucking rhesus monkey bugging Dexter for answers and landing him in detention.
>>152699348Teen Titans Go or the ppg reboot could've brought them back somehow. It'd be pretty bad though
>>152699348I don't have time right now, but if someone can scroll down Genndy Instagram he has some sketches of Justice friends character like a parody of Scarlett Witch I think named Miss Spell.
>>152699390Yeah I noticed her in the Rasslor episode. There was a sweet looking Wolverine parody too
>>152699187There is a lot of stuff in Dexter Genndy keeps revisiting, in other stuff like Samurai Jack and Clonewars.
>>152699390Since Genndy says he doesn't have any interest in making a new Dexter, would he be interested in a Justice Friends series?
>>152699094
>>152699749I'm pretty sure there would be a bunch of Disney red tape. Marvel pre MCU didn't seem to really care about parody but Disney probably does.
>>152699865The perfect time was around 2010
Still the best episodehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t1ikg9NB0tc
This shit was purest cash money
>>152699999Checked
I love the aesthetics of this show and PPG
>>152699066day #29592959249395929 of saying that Savino should be burned alive for what he did to this show
>Nice uniform, you on some kind of sports team?>I am the Blue Falcon.>Oh right, the Falcons! You guys didn't do too hot last season, huh?>I'm the Blue Falcon!>Aww don't be blue, I'm sure you'll do better next season!
>>152699999Loved tributes to Mazinger, Voltron and Zeta Gundam
First two seasons are one of the best cartoons ever
>>152699954Don't Hug Me I'm Scared
>>152699066So I want to say the speed racer, seeing this thread makes ke want to rewatch it. However I remember the episode having multiple references to the original speed racer, would anons recommend any specific speed racer before revisiting this episode?
>>152700088Ego Trip was one of if not THE best TV movie
>>152700232Love that episode especially where they parodied the bad lip-synching and movementshttps://m.youtube.com/watch?v=fRTa55521Cw
>>152700232>>152700400Here's the Japanese dub of that episode: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Otc46unyQpw&pp=iggCQAE%3D
>>152700232The typical reaction to someone in Mario Kart about to kiss a Blue Shell.
>>152700299As a kid that movie felt really epic. Love the different Dexters and fat Mandark
>>152700039>Hello honey >Hello Dexter >Hello Dee Dee >Hello honey>.....Hello honey
>>152699066Labretto is probably my favorite episode
>muh monkey >muh Justice FriendsGive me the spinoff we deserve
>>152701037Action hank?
>>152700232>>152700400>>152700443I remember being irrationally angry at how the volcano race worked as a kid. In the episode we see the start signal is the volcano erupting and it's random lava being flung that cuts the ropes to release each individual soap box car. But my little autist mind just got so mad at the unfairness of such a system, since it had nothing to do with skill and just to do with luck that the lava even got you started on your race.
>>152701037I want a looping gif of that walk cycle that you can put into any scenario.
It's not about the beard on the outside, it's about the beard on the inside...
>>152701037>>152701410Here's the original
>>152701037>>152701540It's also in the same episode Lee Lee and Mee Mee were really digging Dexter with that beard and told Dee Dee to shut her mouthhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dxF0f32I1PM
>>152699097
Dee Dee mind controlling mom did things to me...
>>152699097You know, i remember that episode where dexter tries to make friends with a group known as the major glory gang and gets rejected. His sister asks him whats wrong and he says he has no friends and is unpopular. However, hes got those 3 dudes and Douglas, who is his best friend. It just didnt make sense to me and felt inconsistent.
>>152699097>>152701718Just watched this episode and they seem to be barely tolerating Dexter. Probably just other nerds/outcasts rather than good friends
>>152699865Parody is by definition legal. My guess is that the actual reason this episode was pulled was because it was an acknowledgement that Marvel characters had higher profile and were more culturally relevant than DC's. CN kind of embarrassed their own sister company.
>>152702035What pulled episode are you referring to?
>>152700299I’m probably the minority in saying this but I was disappointed in the lack of Dee Dee in Ego Trip. One of the main characters and she only gets 2 scenes (iirc) in the grand finale epic movie.
>>152702132Dial M for Monkey: BarbequorThe one with the gay Silver Surfer parody.
>>152702035I assumed they'd get a laugh out of it since it made them comedic
>>152701893Yeah, I recall Dexter was actively cheating on his dice rolls in that one and his friends only had fun when DeeDee took over. It'd make sense if they just barely tolerated him.Though there was the funny accents episode where he seemed to actually get along with the other oddball kids.
>>152702490He doesn't have a consistent love interest or admirer type character either. Side characters outside of Mandark didn't seem like a priority for this show>>152702341I think that's a fair criticism but not nearly as bad as Squidward barely being in the spongebob movie
Write a thousand times. I. Am. A. Criminal!
>>152699116>>152701684>Watching Simion episode> He strips naked and starts ooking I should draw him again
>>152703546For a long time I always gave apes I drew detailed nipples because of this guy Thank you Genndy
>>152703268Aww something nice about the middle kid doing cursive even if he wasn't told to
Dexter's dad was the best character>>152700530>That night He fucked his wife and two robot versions of herIf the show was the kind to make more blatant adult jokes you think the two robo moms would have shown up in a later episode still stored in their bedroom closet like a couple of sex toys?
>>152701634Anyone else remember that dungeon and dragon arcade game, besides Dexter hobbit they remind me of the players.
>>152705160Ninja episode Dad gets hitPlays in alow motion Lying on the floor spilled coffee (basically a pool of blood)Dee Dee comes over "gee dad, aren't you being dramatic it was just coffee" Dad "yeah, but it was really hot coffee"
>>152700299I be honest I wish it had more DeeDee even when the little there is is great,
>>152701197Action Hank
>>152703546>againAgain?
So how'd everyone feel when season 3 and 4 dropped? I remember viewing it almost as a different show. Not a fan of the "long periods of quiet= comedy" formula but it still had some okay episodes
>>152706178I've drawn him a few times on and off, usually never finished anything with him
>>152706310When the first few episodes with Christine still voicing Dexter came out I was optimistic That went out in record time
>>152706310The Savino era was so shit. >souless title card art>shit redesigns >comedy like what anon said, was just long drawn out scenes instead of punchy dialog + visual humor
What went wrong?
>>152706483>>152706490Apparently Gennedy himself did the redesignsThe question is... why?
>casually mogs your actual mech show 10+ years before it's even a thing >>152706313He's beautiful, anon
>>152706669i like that hers is even bigger
Is the visual quality on tubi good?
>>152699380>The detention episode for oneIt gave us the hottest Dexter woman though
>>152699066>favorite episodeCouple: the speed racer, wacky races, the documentary episode, rasslor, and that episode where Dexter and mandark worked together. >monkey or justice friendsI’m more of justice friends. every hero tends to have one of everyday problems here and there>>152706310The other season were ok for me. I just see Dexter and that’s it
>>152699066I really like this stock art btwI think it was in one of the "Encyclopedia of Animated Cartoons" books, very appealing pic
>>152700232>would anons recommend any specific speed racer before revisiting this episode?I like the episode with the pirate carMight have been a 2 parterThe whole series is also on Tubi
>>152700070The tall kid is dressed like Gachaman, Who is the green kid suppose to be?
>>152706310Even as a kid I could feel something was gone, even discounting the artstyle there was less imagination and wonder. >>152706483I wouldn't completely blame Savino, a lot of the later episodes were scrips left over from season 2. Some of them got adapted as comic first, like the one with the chicken pox or the one with Mandark dress as Dexter's mom.
>>152705160>>152705350His Coffee rant is still the best.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QZpy9r_KXqc
>Make my own Dexter mega crossover movie series with dinosaurs, every other cartoon made by the same guy, and a boatload of asians>It will be done with the whole original cast on Cartoon Network and released on VHS, DVD, and 4k blu-ray>???
https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=6dKMUMvYuYcThis shows why 6 was truly afraid of 7
>>152707835Not sure, maybe a spiky headed version of Kamille from Zeta Gundam?
