Cute autist.
>>153484086I love FrancisI don't think she's autistic. She's just neat.
>>153484086Her show deserved better.
>>153484425seriously.it was too fucking smart for 2020s CN. but in fairness, it was advertised fucking horribly.But then again it also aired on streaming first, and there's no way to lead there via ads.
>>153484425>>153485042piss off kids
>>153485130hi Stuart Snyder.
>>153484425>>153485042What was their strategy here>Premiere it on cable first>delay the Disney+ release from Spring till Summer
>>153485681oh wait that's right, i had it backwards didn't Ii mean that's how it's SUPPOSED to work. get the tv audience ... then stream it later. but their 'later' was wayyy too late.in any case, remind me to re-recap some episodes at some point.
don't stugo away yet!
>>153484086Hard to believe that this is her voice actress.
>>153484425>Her show deserved better.So it really is over?
>>153488282people underestimate actors' ranges all the timethe whole point of voiceover is nobody cares if you're gonna make chris farley look like he lived to 90 by comparison. You can just PLAY nonfat.
>>153488299sadly, despite it being confirmed renewed, it was also confirmed canceled.
>>153485042Neither of those was true. The show premiered on cable first and was put on streaming afterwards so it got time to have weekly threads for each episode. At least after the first few were released two at a time. Disney also put out a lot of commercials for it on it's channel and socials. It must have worked to some extent considering for a bit we got that renewal. But something must have happened behind the scenes that stopped that.
>>153488547i didn't say the advertising was too sparse, I said it was lousy. It did not represent the show at all, just made it look like wacky bullshit.and I already said I got mixed up about the streaming vs cable thing
Okay let's seerewatching PANTelevision. I remember this one being a dang hoot.>I love how they somehow have gigantic bacon for the gigantic dog, to wrap around his gigantic pill, yet none of the three are remotely in scale with each other, leaving the pill comically unbaconcovered.>You can see the artist kinda struggling to draw Mr. OK's suit interior properly without it being a huge pain in the ass.>He emphasizes the T in PANT, Pant Television, which isn't what it says.>It's amazing how this does Interdimensional Cable better than everything past the first time rickenmorty did that.>Francis really likes to see the bizarre show where Chicho just messes with a bucket of slop in an ostensibly relaxing way.>It's a little weird seeing a chimp mutant before meeting Bakey Potatey, but in fairness we did see him sometime back when they were putting on that play. It's just a little oddly redundant.>Catapult Kevin's hilariously detailed fish mouth really shows what these artists are into.>Larry likes the kiss cam a lot.>One of the cheerleader fish in the teen drama spoof is just randomly wearing big fucking cargo pants like they just ran out of pink skirts.>Big Mitchell's gigantic centipede motorcycle is fucking terrifying and I wish it showed up more.>I'm not sure when the TV got re-plugged, given that Mr. OK was kinda out of there in a flash, and the plug leads out the door.>I'm glad Tara gets to have a music career instead of just doing acrobatics shows.>The red toads are fucking dead on accurate to real ones that I've fucking drawn before.>I need to know what The Hole is about. Dammit, uncancel this show!>I love that everyone's ribbing of Chip for having a pig with a crush on him is very affectionate, and he shows a humble pride from it. How many shows today would do that?>Really hoping the rhino doc didn't actually refer to the clam as 'they.' Presumably multiple people have died. The bit with the boat still fucking slays me.
>>153489447>Sarah and Chip are at least smart enough to try eating things from the garbage that are actual food, albeit Sarah's is still in the box. Francis, you're gonna be sick from that fish. I'm sorry.>the basking shark mutant.. see? who fucking includes basking sharks in anything? Nobody.>Catapult Kevin is such an amazing running gag.>Pretty sure Frogatha shouldn't have that throat pouch thing as a girl, but frogs.. frogs get weird sometimes.I wish there were more episodes of this show. thank you for letting me remember it.
I will miss these little shits so much... But especially Merian and Francis.
>>153484086I miss this show like you wouldn't believe. Last Tuesday I came across some mimosa strigillosa on the side of my bike trail and almost broke down crying and laughing.
>>153489960
>>153488282She look like Sexual Chocolate in a wig.
>>153484086This show was delightful. The charm of Merian and Francis go without saying, but I particularly loved Sara(h), she was just so fun and was the biggest pleasant surprise of the entire show for me. Love the idea of her and Larry having 'something there', that they could become 'a thing'.
How old is she meant to be, OP?
>>153490250One of the few shows where I can say the whole main cast genuinely had merit.
>>153490400NTA but absolutely, only "weak" character was Pliny and that's mostly due to her eps being driven by a central conflict outside of something she did. Plus she makes up for it with decent foot game.
>>153490924I'd agree. And it's particularly surprising since the promo stuff for this show made it seem like/made me assume that she was going to be the MC and leader of the group, that the series would primarily center on her. Yet then she turned out to be the least noteworthy character.
>>153488321Why do people get pissed at the idea of big-name celebrity actors doing voice acting?
Remember how much fanart Merian was getting for a while there? That was good shit..
>>153484369I ship her with Francis from Malcolm in middle
>>153490250>Love the idea of her and Larry having 'something there', that they could become 'a thing'.Bump for 'Sarry'.
>>153490924She did suffer a bit maybe for having to be the main group leader in some episodes instead of doing her own thing as much as the others
>>153490933>>153494456Yeah she really suffered a lot with being pushed as the quirky MC, not really allowed to have more going for her the way the others do. Did appreciate all her lore though, especially shit like the dolphin forums or her almost getting eaten by her cousin's(?) snake.
>>153484086i miss stugo
>>153489990What a smooth dude.
>>153490400Right? Nobody was the whippingboy. very refreshing.
>>153485681That's usually the best way to release a show. It's how they usually save the shows they seem to value more. Much better than just dumping all at once.
>>153491546People are too fucking stupid to understand nuances, so they latch onto the surface-level aspects of various viewpoints at randomLook into the actual discussion, not the retards. listen to some voice actor podcasts, actually. There's a lot of great ones. Butch Hartman has one too>>153492783Yeah that actually kinda works. I mean he has a wife already but>>153494436didn't have to be THAT kind of a thing, point is it's a thing.
>>153484086Cute autist
>>153494456>>153495810I think it worked, it made her simpler idiosyncrasies shine through fantastically. She was fun doing nature watches with the tar-mummy guy.. she was a little less fun insisting on doing animal studies with Lullah, but that was still a good one. Pliny cares about shit, and no-sells a lot of bullshit. She's the one you want on your side during the hard times.
>>153498781Haha, yeah pretty much nailed the epitome character of that statement. Love Junie, such a lil cutie.
>>153498823weird. not sure how anyone couldanyway Stugo
>>153489990this guy looks like a beatles
>>153500463he kinda does!but his normal outfit is terrible
idiotic 2020s shorts-over-swimsuit aside, how cute was this?
>>153501911Cute as fuck. Twintails are adorable. She wears the one piece when swimming so the pants are just at home anyway.
>>153502782oh yeah it's probably so she can sit on the couch without getting it wet
>>153501911I watched it for she.
>>153502871was it worth it?
>>153502871Same. But the rest of the show didn't disappoint either. It was great.
>>153484086>>153484369>>153489990>>153501911They are all but pawns in Sara's game
>>153503191Agreed, same experience. I was like 'I'ma watch it cuz I wanna fuck dolphin girl', simple as that, but then I ended up genuinely liking it across the board.
>>153503207>They are all but pawns in Sara's gameSara(h)'s*
>>153503207we all are, dear.
>>153484086Post her feet
>>153503207>Checking Sara's page on the StuGo wikiaOh no...
>>153503290I think she has a weakness for cheesecake
>>153503322Her weakness: Lack of exercise & poor diet.
>>153503353it's pretty impressive she's able to maintain an identical weight with her doppelsarahs despite presumably having to share food rations with them AND their pet artist guy
The 2 Sara(h)'s make me really love the idea of a scene where one walks up and is like 'Larry, I've thought about this a lot, and I like you, I like like you.' *Kisses him and quickly walks away*. Then like a minute later the other Sara(h) walks up and is like 'I've thought about this a lot, and I've gotta get this off my chest, sorry Larry but I don't like you. There I said it. So forget about it.' *Slaps him and storms off*And Larry is obv like 'HUH? WUT? WUT JUST HAPPENED?!'(It writes itself).
>>153503536mean!she wouldn't do that to himbut Chip? hell yeah. it'd be a reversal of that classic 'going to 2 dates at once' sitcom bit.
There is this one guy who is always in the Drawthreads requesting a romantic art piece of Sara and Larry kissing in the ocean. And I'm always seeing it and thinking man, someone should really take up and grant that request, that's delightful stuff right there.
>>153503536They would all gangbang Larry
Chip x the piggy.Larry x the owl.What did they mean by this?
>>153503322>>153503353>>153503397THAT'S A WEIGHT YOU SHALL ALL CARRY WHEN I RULE OVER THE WORLD!!!
>>153501911Diabetes-inducing honestly
wait holy shit, Francis's voice was also the possum?
I like how Sara seems to have a minor accent that makes her sound like she's from Minnesota or something. You just know she probably lives in some boring town in some boring flyover state.
>>153504357yeahhh she definitely has a bit of a hotdish dialect.
Nicktendo made a good vid on StuGo
>>153504376It's endearing.
>>153504381sure did
Time to rewatch Infinity Braid. Not sure what actual new stuff I'll notice>Larry's legs ALSO do the disappear-into-the-void thing, so I guess it's not just girls. Fun.>as badly mangled as poor Chip ended up, his hair is doing some cool shit on top. he should style it that way when it grows back, instead of that weird kinda half pompadour half Daria thing he has going>I think Merian legitimately won't share the water because it's meant for eyes. She's not being mean, just very very uptight.>very clever how the camera cuts away during the wet willy. but Francis saw it.>I like how consistent they've been about Pliny's terrible penchant for extremely strained, and often Italian-American-adjacent, puns.>Sara's hair actually looks cute without the poodle part, just little puffs. It also looks good combed out. also the Leia buns below the clock. Hella cute. And when the floor buffer's being used. Basically every style other than her normal one.>hehehe. Dog do's. Underrated gag.>So since Sara has barely been here, and Francis is nearly to the heads, does that mean.. Sara's not even in it yet?>Sara's hair circle thing, when it's tilted back, is clearly a skewed version of the upright drawing.. but that's okay.>Just now realizing that the hair time tunnel thing brings back a WOOLLY mammoth. It's thematically appropriate!>It's nice how none of the other kids are possessive about their positions and stuff. They're just happy for each other. Only Sara has problems.>I wonder how much of the episode's budget went to that elaborate mammoth drawing. Every piece of fur has individual movement bones.. It even has fucking warts.>Ah yep, Sara's body isn't in the painting at all. They really paid attention while making this.waaa, I love this fuckin thing. I hope this same team gets a new show.
>>153484086You misspelled 'Artist'
>>153504677Maybe Anon is from New York.
Remember when KazeCloud wuz always drawin Merian?
>>153504567I loved how committed to the funny hair thing Merian was with that intense ponytail.
>>153505958You cannot accuse Merian of doing anything halfway.
>>153505839yeah where did he go? I haven't seen him in ages. not even on the anthoLOgy discord.
>>153506023He's still around and drawing all the time. He pops into threads fairly regularly and draws stuff on-the-fly. Did a lot of TLH stuff recently.But not really the StuGo threads anymore, it seems, although, is it more so because there haven't really been StuGo threads?
>>153505958I would have loved to see Merian with more alternate hairstyles. Merian is just so pretty.
>>153506073all she has to do is top yanking it back, she'd look so much better.
>>153503646You mean this?
>>153506356Yeah some bangs/hairs sticking forward would really go a long way. Not that I don't think she already looks good, she looks better with that full-pullback 'worst ponytail style' than any other character I can think of off the top of my head.
>>153506403Yeah. Precisely. That guy.Respect.
>>153506452indeed, and part of that I think is just how balanced her design is. Many things about her shouldn't work, but they did it just enough. If you take her at face value, she either HAS bangs, that are just plastered against her head, or she has a very low hairline. But either way, for someone with a literal lightbulb head, she doesn't have that much cranium. Because her eyes are large and her nose is placed decently high, eating up the space that would often be a big ugly fivehead on others.
>>153506463Maybe you could draw it
>>153506463Someone should draw the three Saras gangbanging Larry>>153503667
>>153506073I'd have liked to have seen her actually let her hair down once. Like actually let it loose instead of it being blown to the side like it was that one time. But it also feels like it fits her character a lot that she never dropped her ponytail.
>>153506523even the leg fertilized with her DNA sprouted a ponytail. That was hilarious.
>>153506523>I'd have liked to have seen her actually let her hair down once. Like actually let it loose instead of it being blown to the side like it was that one time.Yes. Just..*fuck* yes. She'd look so gorgeous.Drawfug drew her like that recently.
>>153498746So what are the actual discussions about? There could be bad examples like in Invincible where they spent top dollar on VAs and even when they act their heart out in the booth the animation is so underfunded that you just get unemotive static boring shots. For big budget movies, it does make sense sometimes because they already have great visuals and everything else. But at some point it's just bad budget management if it hurts the ability to create a best product.
>>153506717yeah
>stugodidn't this show get cancelled?
>>153484086
>>153506565Never cutting loose is so engrained into Merian that even her DNA is uptight. It was a great joke for her and character bit.
>>153506717Basically the discussion usually goes like this, with one voice actor talking to another>Studios think a big name draws in crowds, not realizing it's because that big name is talented, and when put into a fitting role, does amazing work. They themselves are not putting in the work, they're just matching up 'name make money'>What people actually want is the voice they know is familiar, the person who knows the character, and (most importantly) an actor who knows how to use their voice. A lot of live actors don't. It's easier (or at least much more convenient and less time-wasting) in a lot of ways, but harder in others. Some of them say it's like trying to act with your hands tied behind your back.>Such and such live actor made a fantastic transition into voiceover, because some can do both. it's a lot more rare for it to go the other way, but here's blah blah one or two examples blah blah.One that comes to mind was that live-action 'Christopher Robin' movie that I assume was fucking dismal. Of COURSE they were gonna use Jim Cummings as Pooh, because nobody else can Pooh, but they tried to celebrity stunt-cast Tigger... and Jim's miffed, but keeps his mouth shut.. then they come back to him later and say "uh that guy's not working, please do Tigger for this movie."
>>153506717I'm happy to hear someone point that outIdiots ree about celebrity voices in Invincible, but they really are fantastic actors. If you're right for the role, you're right for the role.Budgets do sadly exist though. I'm reminded of how in Gargoyles, they wanted Patrick Stewart as Macbeth, but his agent asked for too much money.Frakes and Sirtis offered to talk to him, but Greg Weisman thought it'd be a bad idea to mix business and friendship like that. Like what if Sir Pat doesn't LIKE doing voiceover?Turns out a couple years later, he fucking loves it. But John Rhys-Davies did an amazing job as Macbeth anyway>>153506769eeeyup.
>>153506854>eeeyup.damn
>>153506506Wholly not an artist. If only.
>>153507029yeah.. yeah..it hurts more because we were told they were renewed, and we saw them like, hiring.. but then they got canceled anyway.
>>153503536Then the third one shows up and strips Larry bare and pins him down and says "I'm gonna fuck you hard!"
>>153507502Sara(h)s: 'Now Larry, we likes ya, and we wants ya. Want ya more than food, want ya more than water. And we're gonna have ya. Now we can do this the easy way, or we can do this the hard way..'
>>153506819I adore how awkward this looks. So perfectly Merian.
>>153507593as much as I like my boi Larry, he'd probably be relegated to the cuck chair while Chip would have free rein over all the pussy on the island
>>153507593Is Larry a chubby chaser?
>>153509306I don’t know if Larry would survive being smashed between all three Sara’s.But he’s gonna go out with a smile on his face. Based.
Post her soles
>>153509376It will be a dream come true for him. It will be a dream come true for all three of them too.
>>153509376he's survived worse.
>>153509376Someone should draw this scenario
>>153507593I'd like see a drawing of this
>>153514818such a diligent girli would be proud if I had a Merian daughter
which of the stugos is most likely nopan?
>>153516118Chip, no doubt about it.
>>153484425I wanna know the name of the exec that wanted to hold up on a season just because they wanted to keep pushing the fucking streaming app
>>153517050>Underwear's for dorks. THIS guy is always breezy and ready.then Larry's like "What's underwear?"
New Chibiverse promo featuring /our girl/ Merian https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q-aP-sO6--0
>>153517557>new>May 2025
>>153517182Larry's probably wearing his Zorb's Diaper.
>>153517673that's the nice thing about roomy shorts..
>>153517557I never watch these Chibivers things. Are the StuGo kids finally joining the roster? I know they got a few shorts last year.
What's the appeal of this show? Also are there any butts in it?
>>153519330>appeala sextet of dorks who are all 'the smart kid' but in distinct and fresh ways, and who all get along fantasticallyalso hilarious and creative mutants, and one profoundly unprofessional, dumpy, over the hill smudge of adult supervision.>buttsanon it was 2024, do you really think there'd be butts? we get a couple thighs ON OCCASION.
>>153519801oh yeah and we saw lullah's underwears
If her voice sounds like that as a child, what would she sound like after puberty?
>>153520376it's not as if women's voices change THAT much.. but yeah she's gonna sound like she smokes.
watchin Primate Fear again (I don't want it to be over!!)>The stylised red-white-black-teal at the beginning is pretty swell, I wonder if it's based on anything specific.>Fucker went STRAIGHT for the nips.>Lullah's coffee is fucking coal black.>I wish Merian had put on more than Justice's blindfold. The whole outfit would look nice on her.>Merian actually uses an incorrect, hypercorrected "and I" that should have been "and me" there... It was an object-first sentence.>I missed the first time that Potatey blames the 'baleful radiation of the moon' for his mutation... That's.. is that a DBZ reference? Also he was a cartoon brown-furred chimp when he went in, and now he's fuckin gray. Poor guy.>Chip's tie must be pinned to his skin. That's dedication.>Love Sara having one handcuff on, just so we know why she wasn't chosen as the lawyer.>They kind of telegraphed the climax here. Twice.>Cutting open a VHS cassette does not actually render it unplayable.. also WOW that film was under pressure.>They used a nice cheap technique to make it look like the film is piling up without having to keep redrawing the whole thing>the padding on Potatey's knuckles, especially when he's headpatting Merian, makes me think these artists have actually interacted with chimps>Charlyne Yi's performances are still so cute. She has the cutest damn voice>Meanwhile, Francis doing quiet sound effects over the video is really really cute.>Bakey Potatey walks like a cat, same-side-limbs at a time. Very odd. Or maybe apes always did that and I never noticed.>That sinister "ooh ooh ah ah ah" spoken like words is so priceless. That's why they repeated it. Adding the banana-cigar only made it better.>Crazy that Potatey's voice was the same before he mutated, too. He was a babbu chimp at the time.>Does anyone actually win or lose when it's a mistrial?I donnnn't want it to end.. Why aren't there 50 more episodes after this?
>>153514818I love how Merian has the same VA as Hekapoo. I just love her voice, has great appeal.
>>153521045fantastic cast all aroundZach Reino is more than a poor man's Jack McBrayer.
>>153519311It looks like it.
>>153521045She has perfect high strung energy in this role.
>>153484086Francis may be the cutest black girl character design I've ever seen. Her and Maya from COTC are easily my favorite chocolate.
Has she been in a bathing suit
>>153523203>Has she been in a bathing suitYes, actually. But it was a full wetsuit. Still cute and sporty tho, and shows off the shape of her.
>>153520057Sauce?
>>153523940nta but I think it was the body building episode
>>153517557surprise Merian
