Last Saturday Morning

A Halloween special featuring the Lords of Spooks, Scooby and Shaggy themselves! We rewatch the made for TV movie and enjoy the spookily adorable supporting cast, reflect on the point of Scrappy, the nature of back door pilots, 80s fashion, and also answer if ghosts exist. Sound editing by James Carlisle.

Your hosts revisit one of the earliest anime teams seen by Canadian Millennials: a trio of mechanized cats who fight crime and sell pizza. Cracking the seal on anime, we gatekeep pizza passion, observe how 90s humor has aged, and cry over Bad Bird.

From humble educational comic to Paramount’s most lucrative merchandising property, SpongeBob SquarePants on Nickelodeon has had an undeniable influence on entire generations. We look back at three beloved episodes, but never quite answer the question of who’s more relatable: SpongeBob or Squidward?

Short-lived Hanna Barbera cartoon Chan Clan is kind of like Scooby Doo: there’s a groovy car, a silly dog, and plenty of mysteries to solve (plus chase sequences!). Get to know this zany Chinese family of sleuths with us, along with the deeper history of the Charlie Chan IP. This is not a history podcast! But we give it our best shot

Join us as we introduce one host to Adult Swim's debut program, the cult classic Home Movies! Topics explored include VA legend H Jon Benjamin, improv in animation, the prototype of the Pesto twins (of Bobs Burgers) and the highs and lows of birthday parties.

Come with me, we’ll go and see a show called the Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack, Cartoon Network’s late ‘00s nautical adventure. Discussions include: loveless co-parenting, the dawn of the Adventure Time era, board-driven shows, and once again, alcoholism. 

Clips: Misadventures of Flapjack theme song, ending theme song cover by Isaac Brock. 

Get gross with your hosts as we rewatch the scariest (?) nicktoon from your nightmares. Discussions include the lore behind ARM, the balance of cute and gross out humor, and... toenails.

Get ready for season two, cartoon enthusiasts! Check out our instagram for a sneak peek of the wacky and beloved characters we'll be revisiting this season @lastsaturdaymorning

In our season finale, we visit America’s favourite dysfunctional family: the Simpsons. Diversions include alcoholism, family violence, passionate fandom, imaginary friends, and the Magical Negro trope. 

The truest Saturday Morning cartoon to feature on the show yet, do our hosts have the endurance to take on the relentless antics of Wacky Races??
