The Robsniak & Furret Comedy Show

The Robsniak & Furret Comedy Show (also known as The Robsniak & Furret Comedy Hour ) is an American-Australian-British-Japanese on-going animated television series that has been airing since 2001. It is notable for using many characters from different franchises, and constantly mocks recent pieces of pop-culture just for cheap laughs.

Synopsis
Each episode of the show since season 2 features 3 7-minute segments featuring various characters from many different franchises. Most segments featured characters from two to five different franchises, but on occasion, there were 30 minute specials that featured the entire cast. Each segment always features a Tom & Jerry Comedy Show style title card.

Intentional Bad Qualities
Note: This show was likely meant to be bad on purpose.
 * 1) First off, the show's title, as well as it's opening, is a terribly unoriginal parody of The Tom & Jerry Comedy Show, a show that isn’t any better.
 * 2) *In fact, in one episode, Robsniak even asks why the show's title is unoriginal to the audience!
 * 3) Several characters from their original pieces of media act nothing like their traditional counterparts:
 * 4) *Squidward went from being a very cynical, selfish and a stick-in-the-mud individual to an completely sadistic psychopathic jerk (on par with Jerry from the Gene Deitch era of Tom & Jerry) who always treats everyone he sees like butt-monkeys.
 * 5) *Tom & Jerry do indeed appear in this show, but their designs are usually from the Gene Deitch & sometimes the Comedy Show eras. To make matters worse, they were heavily flanderized.
 * 6) **Jerry's original sadistic personality returned, but that was cranked up all the way to 11 here.
 * 7) **Tom noticeably became extremely overpowered and just as, if not, even more sadistic than Jerry and his fat owner, as every time Jerry tries to do something malicious, Tom often stops it very easily and hits Jerry with whatever object he has in his hand. In the episode "Tom & Jerry's Mexican Adventure", he proceeded to beat the crap out of the Calypso Cat, even though he did nothing wrong!
 * 8) **The Sheriff from Tall in The Trap, as well as Deputy Dawg (from the show of the same name) became extremely violent mob bosses who would often execute people over the smallest of misdeeds, such as holding Patrick at gunpoint all because he was standing on a sidewalk, attacking Fwench Fwy for breathing, and even firing a missile at Meowth just for existing, which all come off as police brutality.
 * 9) *Many characters from "The Adventures of the Little Koala" were portrayed badly in this show:
 * 10) **Roobear became an annoying mischevious Scrappy who often starts unnecessary arguments and fights and often steals Robsniak's time machine to nuke YouTube's headquarters just because they removed dislikes.
 * 11) **Betty became an extremely spoiled brat who is even worse than Veruca Salt from Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory and is also a whiny and stereotypical mean popular girl, and because of this, she is often treated as a butt-monkey and is only used for filler, innuendos, and unfunny jokes.
 * 12) **Miss Lewis & Mama Koala both became extremely greedy idiots who always come up with get-rich-quick schemes that often make others go bankrupt, and even went as far as to completely obliterate the economy and somehow managed to steal $250 billion worth of gold bars. Even worse, they rarely get any comeuppance, making them Karma Houdinis.
 * 13) **Floppy became a very stereotypical geek who is often seen flirting with women. To make matters worse, by season 5, he became a total pervert.
 * 14) *Peanut Otter became an idiotic goof who makes very bad decisions, such as stealing people's stuff, raiding numerous theme parks, and in one instance, was even seen drinking beer. Luckily, Jelly confiscated and smashed the beer bottles before any harm could be done.
 * 15) *Super Chicken is no longer a superhero, as he became a very snobby tyrannical mob boss who only cares about get-rich-quick schemes, and will kill anyone who dares to step foot on his property.
 * 16) *SpongeBob & Patrick, despite being tolerable, were reverted back to their original season 1 designs and original personalities, they became Butt-Monkeys who are constantly humiliated by Squidward.
 * 17) *Meowzie has changed drastically from her original appearance in "Go West, Young Meowth!", as she can now speak fluent English. Even worse, she now has a voice actress, who is none other than the voice of Stacey Hirano from Phineas & Ferb.
 * 18) *Not only that, but many web characters were also flanderized and became extremely unlikeable.
 * 19) **Fwench Fwy & Iscream are no longer rivals, but became friends. Even worse, they were both flanderized into extremely goofy butt-monkeys. This was later reverted.
 * 20) **Sody Pop was extremely miscast, as when he was first added to the show, he was voiced by a man, but was later recast and retained his original voice actor.
 * 21) **Speaking of which, his mother (Sassparilla) has only been used for three things: 1. sexual content in order to, as mentioned in a newspaper, "excite and bring joy to local perverts", 2. as a plot device, and 3. for the show's over-the-top violence.
 * 22) **Cofi became a jerk towards everyone other than Sheep from Sheep in the Big City, and would often laugh at and through rocks at people whenever they're in serious danger instead of helping them. Additionally, she also became egotistical. This personality would later be reverted.
 * 23) **Cheezborger has been horribly mistreated by the show's writers, as she is one of two main victims of choice for Tom's owner from the Gene Deitch era of Tom & Jerry.
 * 24) *Bendy from the infamous Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends episode that shall not be named for obvious reasons had his original personality worsen when he first appeared in season 8, as he now commits extremely unforgivable crimes, acts, and on one occasion, even faked his death, orchestrated a terrorist attack, caused extremely severe volcanic eruptions, collapse multiple economies, assassinate multiple political leaders, and was wanted dead in eighty different countries just so he could do unspeakable things to Sassparilla! Even worse, he gets away with all of these things, making him an even worse example of a Karma Houdini than he already is! Thankfully, this entire persona was wiped after Season 20.
 * 25) The original characters are no better as well, as they suffer from bad characterization.
 * 26) *Robsniak is a short-tempered idiot who turns into a rage-filled maniac whenever something doesn't go his way, & is also a terrible comic relief character who has done many awful things in the show's history, such as, but not limited to:
 * 27) **Holding Sody Pop at gunpoint and threatening him all because he wouldn't tell him where the airport is.
 * 28) **Throwing James Edward Smith off the Titanic and re-routed it to Japan & intentionally crashed the "unsinkable ship" into a ship carrying explosives.
 * 29) **Lighting his wife's house on fire.
 * 30) **Sabotaged Lovable Truly's mailing address so he can trick him into going to North Korea so he can steal the missile codes.
 * 31) **Mass murdering conspiracy theorists all because they think the moon landing is fake.
 * 32) **Selling people's kidneys so he can be the richest man in the world.
 * 33) **Faking an illness so he can scam people and pull off a bank heist.
 * 34) **Beating up Cheezborger all because she wears a cheeseburger hat (yes, really).
 * 35) **Hacked every single GPS system in the US so they can crash into Disneyland's castle.
 * 36) **Spiked Jerry's food with rat poison and crystal meth.
 * 37) **Committed multiple drive by shootings to kill robbers and gang members, which resulted in all of them getting blamed for it.
 * 38) **Combusting every single library in ancient Greece & Rome into flames, as well as burning the only known copy of "Beowulf".
 * 39) **Joined a drug cartel and bombed migrant buses that were traveling to New York.
 * 40) *Furret, while likable, is a self centered, egotistical brat who is often mistreated by Robsniak, even if he didn't to anything wrong. This, as well as Robsniak's abusive personality, was heavily toned down in later seasons.
 * 41) *Karma Kameleon is an extremely unlikeable Karma Houdini who often humiliates others with his extremely dangerous (and even deadly "pranks"). His main catchphrase (It's just a prank, BRO!) is extremely annoying and tasteless.
 * 42) *Felicity Fox is an unlikeable dimwitted Mary Sue who only exists just for furbait.
 * 43) The show has had numerous unoriginal, nonsensical, & bad segments/episodes throughout it's 20-year-history, which includes, but not limited to:
 * 44) *The VCR Monster
 * 45) *Tom & Jerry's Mexican Adventure!
 * 46) *The Big Get-Rich-Quick-Scheme Scare
 * 47) *The Big Get-Rich-Quick-Scheme Scare 2: Electric Boogaloo
 * 48) *The Big Get-Rich-Quick-Scheme Scare 3: Super Chicken's Broke!
 * 49) *Too Many Furrets!
 * 50) *The Holly-Jolly Family-Friendly Christmas Spectacular! (A special which is anything but family-friendly)
 * 51) *Bendy's Dimension-Traveling Issue!
 * 52) *Friendship A-No-No
 * 53) *Horror on the Atlantic Ocean (a terrible Titanic parody)
 * 54) *The Episode with Way Too Many Clichés
 * 55) *Close Encounters of the Slurred Kind
 * 56) *Robsniak Likes Girls
 * 57) *Toilet War I
 * 58) *The Ballad of DirtyLittleSecretMan28
 * 59) *Robsniak's Web-Series
 * 60) *Dr. DoNothing
 * 61) *Erotic Tales I, II, & III (3 segments that were so inappropriate that they never even aired on TV at all)
 * 62) *Roobear's Stupid Home Video (a knock-off of Jeffy's Stupid Home Movie)
 * 63) *Dial "S" for Slushi
 * 64) *Giant Squidward II: Squidzilla VS Cofi (A terrible parody of King Kong meets Godzilla)
 * 65) *Robsniak Goes to a Cat Party
 * 66) *Tom & Jerry meet SkaterCheese
 * 67) *Age is Just A Number
 * 68) *Jake Junior's Worst Nightmare
 * 69) *Jake Junior's Big, Grand, and Not-So-Stupid Adventure (widely considered to be one of the worst made-for-TV movies ever made)
 * 70) *Robsniak & Chipflake Visit the Queen's Funeral
 * 71) *Baby Blue (a segment that made Japanese children puke)
 * 72) The show constantly teaches terrible things & very bad morals to its audience, which includes:
 * 73) * Stealing (stagecoach heists, train robberies, art heists, etc)
 * 74) *Drinking alcohol
 * 75) * Lying
 * 76) *Cheating
 * 77) *Not being yourself (the actual "Be Yourself" moral cliché was heavily mocked in one episode)
 * 78) * Making people angry
 * 79) *Bullying
 * 80) *Scamming
 * 81) *Child Neglect
 * 82) *Committing unforgivable acts while getting away with it, no matter how bad it is (yes, really)
 * 83) *Traumatizing children and walking in on someone during very risqué moments
 * 84) Similar to Popee the Performer, Ren & Stimpy “Adult Party Cartoon”, Herman & Katnip, The dark age of SpongeBob SquarePants, post-season 4 Loud House, the Larry Doyle era of Looney Tunes, the last two seasons of Ed, Edd n Eddy, and ironically the Gene Deitch era of Tom & Jerry, the show heavily relies on over-the-top gratuitous violence that is somehow even more graphic than these combined, as there were several instances of various characters dying on-screen. This practice of characters dying on-screen thankfully stopped during the 4th season, but were re-introduced during the 18th season of the show. Reruns of episodes from seasons 1-3 were heavily edited to make the characters look like they were knocked out cold to be more appropriate for younger audiences.
 * 85) The animation, while passable, can look pretty weird at times. There are also animation errors here and there.
 * 86) The show's logic is extremely illogical, even for a cartoon, as the show has humans who have mosquitoes as their secret identities, planets that have air surrounding them, characters who are mortal but can't get injured for some reason, and a bunch of stereotypes that are offensive if you’re Canadian, Irish, Japanese, British, or Russian. The stereotypes also treat everyone like butt-monkeys for calling them racist.
 * 87) This show also features some extremely weird shippings (that sounds like the stuff found in Pooh's Adventures), with the most infamous of which being Jake Junior's relationship with Rocky the Flying Squirrel, as there was one episode where they passionately make out and, at the same time,  shoot babies out of their rear ends onscreen.  It was so disgusting, that there were reports of children in Japan throwing up and puking at their TV sets because of that one scene! The episode got banned in Japan because of it.
 * 88) Misleading Rating: Despite the TV-G rating, the show features content that isn’t appropriate for that rating.
 * 89) For some god-for-saken reason, each episode seems to have terrible endings which are supposed to come off as "happy endings", which range from average at best to traumatizing and mentally-scarring at the very, VERY worst, as similar to modern-day Family Guy, the show constantly attempts to do rating stunts and often jumps the shark just to get high ratings, such as adding characters from various franchises and shows, online or TV-related (such as BuzzFeed's "Chikn Nuggit", and to make matters worse, only FOUR of them got to stay on the show, and even then, they were treated as Butt Monkeys. Eventually, the rest of the cast started making regular appearances in segments), making constant pop-culture references to various movies, TV shows, and even mocking recent events (the Texas school shooting, Bob Saget's death, and Scott Cawthon getting cancelled being the worst offenders), and even going as far as sneaking in gore despite it's target audience being for "all ages".

Good Qualities

 * 5) *Sheep's Visit (a parody of Squid's Visit)

 * 24) The show has some funny moments, such as Doofenshmirtz flickering the lights as a nod to the SpongeBob SquarePants episode, "Graveyard Shift", Furret constructing a nuclear bomb out of toilet water and cat fur, and Sugar Bear using printed NFTs as firewood.
 * 25) Thankfully, many characters from different animated shows would still retain their original personalities, and most of the ones who had already been flanderized had been reverted back to their original personalities, although some of them continued their flanderizations.
 * 26) As mentioned above, the animation ranges from decent to passable. It does a pretty good job at matching the style of the original characters.

Reception
