Kick Buttowski and Other Projects

6:06 PM · Mar 24, 2021 "i saw a kick buttowski fnf thing earlier today.... god said suffer"

I feel like I've had a few of these shows where I've sat down and watched them and wished that I could put a character in it in a better show. Sunni Gummi and Riley Daring come to mind as characters who could have a lot of interesting themes surrounding them if they were in a more serious or thought out piece of fiction.

I want to put Kick Buttowski in a better show because I feel bad for him.

6:45 PM · Mar 24, 2021 "something disdainable about the kick buttowski has an addiction, gets an intervention, is threatened with reform/military school, and everyone tries to lure him into his addiction because they fucking hate him episode."
7:07 PM · Mar 24, 2021 "it's such a fart joke show....the thing is i love the character of kick, but i think he's the only one i like"

I've never really been into the tough guy macho character, but Kick just seems like a lot of fun, likely due to the fact that he's just a little kid who puts on this act because he loves daredevil shit. It's gender to him. Despite his cool exterior, he still acts like this good kid.

6:49 PM · Mar 24, 2021 "kick as a character is kind of fun. i think it's really funny to see this small baby child with a small baby child view on life with like. a grown man voice."
6:49 PM · Mar 24, 2021 "you know that one video of snufkin being 13 and 30 at the same time that's what kick buttowski is like."

He's got this friend Gunther, who I enjoyed as well, at least when he wasn't a fart joke.

There were also a couple older guys, Razz and Hush, who I really enjoyed, and of course. Immediately assumed they were gay.

They're interesting characters, at least Hush is, as during this watch, I become the unwilling mark of a certain phenomenon described on Twitter.

2:14 PM · Mar 25, 2021 "oh my god i just got tony hawked......"
2:14 PM · Mar 25, 2021 "one of the boy best friends is voiced by tony hawk."

Other than those three, I'm not super keen on anyone else. There's Kendall, who didn't really make an impression with me. Brianna was kind of fun sometimes, but you don't really think of her as much other than Kick's crazy pageant sister... Speaking of pageant sisters.

6:07 PM · Mar 24, 2021 "me: this show feels really mid and really canadian
my heart: [gets pierced by the fucking chris savino credit]"

Yeah... Unpleasant. Honestly I was never big on the Loud House either, so even with the discomfort of seeing Savino's name on this project a bunch, the show was a bit dull to me. I know the guy used to be on everything from the new Mickey Mouse shorts to The Flintstones Divorce Special, but I think the writing style from Loud House shows the most here.

7:18 PM · Mar 26, 2021 "this show really does have huge discontinuity stuff if you like. pay attention..." 

Anyway there's also Brad, who's an absolute jerk and obsessed with women in tankinis because Disney XD doesn't want to remind you what sex is.

7:12 PM · Mar 26, 2021 "brad is 17 why does he need a babysitter"
7:13 PM · Mar 26, 2021 "tankini mags"

 

Frankly I don't really have much to say about Kick. I just wish he and possibly Gunther were in a better show, Though I do have some other things to mention.

I haven't been posting a lot lately. I've been crazy focused on other projects, but some of those ARE relevant to this blog. For example, I've been active on Sporcle again, and have made a few cartoon audio quizzes for Disney Channel, Nickelodeon, and Cartoon Network, with an additional one about Disney Junior/Playhouse Disney recurring songs! They're a little difficult, but I welcome you to take them, especially if you've been going through this blog for the Disney ones!

I've also been watching Bluey! While Bluey isn't officially going on the Disney Watch list, I'll probably make a post about it at some point. I've been kind of enjoying it. It's like Handy Manny in that it really grows on you. And I've seen a bunch of people talk about it that make me wonder... is this cartoon really popular are people actually watching it? Because it doesn't quite feel like they are.

Oh wait. This post is about Kick Buttowski.
