David Firth was big on new grounds but that was still pretty obscure. Thankfully his popularity has magnified from going to YouTube but I’ll always know him for those newgrounds Burnt Face Man cartoons. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=GxY5fDn5sjQ

Anyone else remember when The Critic tried to make Internet stuff? I think it was before Flash (Shockwave) even. I remember waiting half an hour to see three minutes of show more than the show itself.

i was really into Olde English skits that got posted online (originally in QuickTime videos) but none of my friends thought any were funny except the Badminton school shooting sketch. for being obscure though it has the Bojack Horseman guy (and also Adam from Adam Ruins Everything) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T6Ozfh9ou5k

The really early 1999-2000 Classic Game Room episodes back when they and Angry Nintendo Nerd were some of the only gaming related videos on Youtube. I still watch the Ecco Dreamcast review sometimes, that intro always makes me laugh even a decade later https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bRgQUTG1iRc

CGR's still around on Amazon Prime, oddly enough (I think it was something about Youtube paying him basically jack poo poo and Patreon not really making up the difference). His stuff's less funny now, but it makes good stuff to fall asleep to.

I'm like a magnet for obscure web-shows but the most obscure I can think of on the top of my head gotta be Cult of Sock. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UI8dPcDW9_U

PancakeTransmission posted:Not obscure They had it when I saw them last year and although I was high off my rear end I distinctly remember asking my husband: “Holy poo poo is that Salad Fingers?” It was like three seconds of video but bizarre to see a reference to something that niche and old in person.

This isn't obscure but It's amazing in every way. The entire series. All of it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IFfLCuHSZ-U

I would love to know which song this was played during. I love Primus. Primus sucks. EDIT: Sort of related to your post (but not the thread ), I saw them in 2011 at the State Theatre in Portland, Maine, and I remember when all of the instruments kicked in during 'Southbound Pachyderm', and the big silhouette of the elephant started walking through the display behind them, it was one of the most chilling experiences I've ever had with music, and I don't actually look to Primus for that kind of feeling; they've always just been the 'goofy and sort of loud' band. Goddamn, that show was awesome. Rupert Buttermilk fucked around with this message at 16:27 on Apr 15, 2019 |

There was a guy who lived in Japan who got drunk and uploaded videos of him playing Super Smash Bros. Brawl (it came out like a full month before the US) that he called "The Smashed Update." Same guy had another series where his friends would visit him again in Japan and they would all get drunk and cook badly. I forget the name of that one.

redm posted:Rats on Cocaine https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yMcgrHWkUlk I don't think I've ever actually sat down and watched this all the way through, because I find it disturbing in a way that intentionally disturbing stuff like Salad Fingers never really managed it comes across like it's supposed to be this wacky, zany, fast-cut cartoon about a dog who gets a job managing a taco bell, but it goes to his head because he's cuh-razy!, like the kind of stuff you'd see on What A Cartoon or Oh Yeah! Cartoons, but the tone and pathos are just completely off and misplaced the pace is just a little too plodding, sequences go on way longer than they should, the violence is just not quite cartoony enough, the music is just slightly off-key and off-time, the voice acting leans in just a bit too hard it's less like he's cuh-razy! and more like he's profoundly mentally ill and not getting the help that he badly needs. it's great and I love it e: update: the person that made this is a nazi now. disappointing but not the least bit surprising Cubone fucked around with this message at 10:57 on Jul 4, 2019 |

Dealership: The Series came out in 2010 and I may be wrong but I think one or more of these guys may be goons. At the very least, they look like goons. Never took off but it had some funny moments. "The Lemon" is one of their better episodes IMO. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mz_BjjgKUDo&t=2s

I don't know why, all I remember of it now is that it didn't seem to have any real direction then it kinda got cancelled when some dude died but then it got picked up for Canadian TV? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GfKb7CsVmeI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4R2vsIPZ4z4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3yYrM6kUzt0

I think I would have found it disappointingly offensive even in 2004, though I would have probably laughed harder at the other parts.

Kawalimus posted:It basically was if you watched it in like 94-95. I was a bored kid so I'd look in the TV guide and try to watch all the cartoons I'd never see but to do that I'd have to stay up real late and see the stuff that was on cartoon network late. I only knew like screwball humor type of cartoons then so when I caught SGCTC it was like what? What is this? There's real people on this too. And I didn't just have the internet to go search for it and have a wiki or forum that could just reveal every little detail about the show and its production and ruin the magic in a sense. Nobody at school knew what I was talking about. I told my dad about it and got him to tape it when it came on so I could watch it whenever without staying up. Then I told him they said the n-word in one of the episodes and he didn't like that but I eventually convinced him I had made that up. Watching those old Space Ghosts, those guys were internet humor before the internet took off or maybe they were a big influence??

Cubone posted:this made me remember Alfred I wish emily youcis was still making things for the internet. She had quite the imagination, and was kind of a babe tbh. I liked this cartoon she did with the alfred character, but I don't recommend anybody watch it unless they want to see a cartoon dog contract crotch rot from an electric corpse girl.
