But if you actually sat down and watched those shows, they were spouting off jokes and topics that were way ahead of their time. Squidbillies in particular had some really woke commentary on American Southerners, racism, and corporate greed. Sometimes, how a show looks isn't what matters. It's how the show is written and executed.

Eh. They recreated the Kirby style in episodes of Superman: The Animated Series in the late 1990s. The Kirby crackle is ALL OVER the place in the New Gods episodes of that series. Also, Jack Kirby worked in the US animation industry in the late 1970s and 1980s. He storyboarded on the awful DePatie-Freleng Fantastic Four (1978) animated series and was the main visual concept artist on Thundarr the Barbarian which was created by Steve Gerber, creator of Howard the Duck! Thundarr IMHO is worth picking up on Blu ray.

I rememeber watching this on adult swim being shocked this was on tv and wasn't a newgrounds cartoon

y'know those reruns are actually a special exemption to the rule since theyre already cartoons in place, but newer cartoons have a LOT more restrictions on them; I watched a video on the making of smiling friends and it showed Zach and Michael talking about the difficulties they had producing it and the main point they brought up is how older shows that air today have stuff on them that Zach and Michael weren't allowed to have on their show like smoking. originally they planned for the satan scene to be a bit longer with more of an emphasis on him hitting the vape but then the execs said that they couldn't air that because they didnt want it to look like they were "promoting smoking" which I agree is bs when theyve literally got king of the hill reruns on there

It's more of a money issue these days unfortunately. Pretty sure Adult Swim gets some money from Anti-Vape PSA companies (hence why they also get PSAs on their channel) and they don't want to look bad because of it. This issue was prevalent but just in a different way back then.

honestly, considering the much lazier, creatively bankrupted ideas that have been greenlighted by Adult Swim in the past, Minoriteam is far from the worst thing in the world when this is the kind of stuff Matt Stone and Trey Parker still openly mock in their works and challenge you if you tell them they've gone to far.

Trey Parker also did a voice for “The Shivering Truth” created by their writer, Vernon Chatman who also created Wondershowzen and Xavier the Renegade Angel

I grew up without cable, so my only other introduction to the series was this flash game (maybe chess based) on AS's site that I tried for a while.

Racist Checkers. That was also my introduction to the show as it didn't air in Australia until much later. I remember all those old flash games they had for their older shows. Shame that alot of those games are virtually lost to time and the obsolescence of Flash but that game from memory wasn't remarkable.

So I'm a huge Jack Kirby nerd/collector and I just wanna say this art style is absolute heaven! Especially when most marvel properties both live action and animated tend to go for kinda boring visual styles. The actual acknowledgement to Kirby's art is why I think Thor Ragnarok is one of the best MCU movies. Anyway just wanted to say this show looks cool as fuck

@RebelTaxi Todd James is the famous NY graffiti writer called REAS. You actually showed their production logo @ 6:20. he is also the reason why there is so much graffiti in the background of this show.

It’s been a while since I’ve been interested in a rebeltaxi video so now I’m excited for what’s to come

Amazing video as always, Pan. I think sometimes is good to see "in your face" social criticism in a show.

I would wait for every ep. of Minoriteam with anticipation. truly ahead of it's time and underrated. I am glad that pan reminded me of this funny show.

I haven’t seen any recent Rebel Taxi videos but damn the quality has improved significantly the last time I saw. Good job!

For every "you can't show this on tv anymore!" there's stuff like "queer people existing" that's gradually escaping censor hell. People try to act like restrictions are only getting tighter, but it's more of a general shift in sensibilities. Also, I wonder how Jack Kirby would have responded to this show. Would he be on board with the 'it's satire' rationale, or ready to throw giant hands?

@@souljastation5463 modern tv’s been good for a while, very little censorship, unless race jokes are what you want. If you need old school stuff, the 80s and 90s were WAY more censored. Lol even 80s ninja turtles couldn’t show nunchucks

"but it's more of a general shift in sensibilities" and thus many things have become Verboten in a mere decade or two, and very artificially so. Shows only can tell the status quo approved message like some old-timey PSA for kids. People on TV are so disconnected from the average Joe now and they closer represent something from a propaganda poster and constantly preach like one. What was once normal to say only in say, 2008, is now regarded as unspeakable and as though it was from ancient times. Things have been forced from the bottom down to change at such break neck speeds that people are just in disbelief. Like a people who just got taken over by the Soviets, every aspect of their culture has changed. Yet on the surface it is still advertised as being "normal" as though there wasn't some massive paradigm shift, but people can still feel it. And the internet has been pushed by big tech for years now to become cable TV 2.0, the internet is far more restricted than it was only 15 years ago.

*I never skip the intro if the song is a jam to hype to, Pan.* Always awesome.

this show feels like something you would see on an in game tv in GTA 5

I LOVE THAT SHOW! The fact that it's being hidden like an old shame is saddening. It's was in the vain of Undercover Brother, Boondocks, Unemployed Man, etc.

First time on this channel, your intro gave me the biggest wave of nostalgia I think I've ever had

This video feels like a return to form and I freakin love it

It’s easy to write off a show as lowbrow or immature. This one really surprised me and I love the comparisons to Jack Kirby’s work

mike lazzo is a man of passion single handedly kept venture bros running

Exposing "the message" got em canceled before we knew anything about being canceled

I remember seeing reruns of this on Adult Swim in Canada, usually a 2.30am double feature. I wonder if it was just forgotten on the schedule up here

Really feels like this show had about 15 mintues total of planning for the whole thing

Been a while since you’ve used a Talkshow Boy track in a vid. Talk about a blast from the past.

5:56 yes fun fact Jack Kirby was a huge fan of collages. So in his issues if he wanted to depict space far out things you can't understand they'd be made out of ripped up magazines he'd have.

Idea: Reboot the minoriteam as a series of shorts, but they all have stereotypical American white-guy voices like David Cross, Patten Oswalt, Conan O'Brien, etc (Think "Sorry to Bother You"); instead of those dumb impressions because these stereotypes were created specifically to mock and further deride racial-minorities. Their job is to help "people-of-color" but make things worse.

I was think more of a cartoon set in a world where white, cisgender people are the minority while other people of color and people in the LGBT crowd are all racist towards them and heterosexuality is considered controversial.

this video was fantastic and inspiring. your video direction artistic editing style and research/ joke writing was great.

Always a blessing to hear that intro. Great video as always pan.

Between the over the top-ness, wanna be South Park style of edgy humor, the pop culture gags, and the specifically referenced show from the 60's and/or 70's, this is PEAK Gen-X produced adult cartoon series. And yeah, we can never have that again because today's cartoon makers are from the 80's-00's and referencing the stuff THEY grew up with. Plus, we have this weird ass thing now about character pieces and deeper meanings are more important than jokes Family Guy viciously beat to the ground and ruined, so we're getting stuff like Bojack Horseman and Smiling Friends, so...

This is the dumbest idea ever and I have mad respect for the crew for going all the way with it

Great video, honestly I love the way this show looks, big fan of your work Mr. Pizza

In all that chaos is such a well thought man. Thanks for this great video

I remember watching like the first four or five episodes on the AS website! Honestly I thought the show was hilarious in a good way. While I am from an ethnic background I was not offender but eyeah I can easily see why it got banned!

Ayyy Dana Snyder is cool af and full of adult swim stories. I too meet him at a crumy con basically the new jersey version of Florida called Pensacola. He did not like me telling him anytime he talks I see a shake talking to me feels pretty trippy but I ment it as a compliment.

love talkshow boy!! i remember u used one of their other songs in an older video of yours and thats how i initially discovered em.

Wonderful to see another upload reviewing a goofy cartoon! Your VTuber friend has such a fantastic design 💗💗💗 I actually forgot about this show, I have a vague memory of briefly seeing it on TV once as a small boy, and there was some joke about one of the heroes being attacked by his mother who be abandoned her years ago lying about getting milk or something. I never knew what the show was until now because I remembered the art style lol

Adam de la Pena gave me and my buddies so much entertainment when we were younger. We used sit up in my friends upstairs room in the barn to smoke and watch Code Monkeys all the time. That was such a good show. Don't forget hanging with Busey.

I love the art style. It reminds me a lot of the silver age comics of Marvel and DC,especially Jack Kirby. It does shows how much love these guys have of the old school comics.

I was lucky enough to binge watch this a few years ago. Some of the funniest stuff I've seen in a while. And I really love the animation style.

This was really well made good work.

Fun fact, Adam de la Peña actually wrote for the Bratz live action movie, crazy huh

Dude I knew this show wasn't a figment of my imagination. Use to watch this around 2 a.m while eating a late night snack,avoiding waking up my parents as a kid 😂

I don't even have mastolgia for half of the things in your intro but it always gives me a happy feeling inside listening to it. I even don't enjoy traditional music in that genre. its nice :)

Dude, I could never skip the intro. Takes me back, man. Takes me back.

I found it quite fun!!!

I didn't pay much attention to Minoriteam when it aired. That time in my (and to a lesser extent my husband's) life was full of episiotomy scars and dirty diapers, plus a toddler who was shaping up to be fairly odd. Hearing about it now makes me want to go back and watch it for real.

"Please don't skip the intro!" 🎶How about i do, anyway~🎶

I subbed just cause the intro 🤣🤣 you did a good job

Mao Mao needs to be reviewed dang it!~

I swear, this show and Aqua Teen Hunger Force deserves to come back. It is something the world needs

i love your videos rebeltaxi! best content creator of them all. i've been a fan for years

This is so good and I love it

There was this 2002 rpg video game on the PC. That has this Jack kirby art style. Called Freedom Force and its 2005 sequel Freedom Force vs. The Third Reich. Tactical RPG game that's basically a love letter to all things silver Age superheroes, made by Irrational Games ( the same creators that went on to create BioShock years after these 2 games) the game series is very obscure but it still has a niche following of fans and modders who create content for these games. While I'm sure the gameplay is not going to be everyone's cup of tea I still feel like it could be great for an obscure games video.

Yeah randomly remembered it making this vid and used it's music. I would like to play it if I finally get a PC.

I remember seeing the show as a kid and I didn't watch it cuz I was kind of grossed out by it, but I'd probably dig it a bit more now cuz A) I have a better appreciation for this art style now and B) I have a better tolerance and understanding of this type of humor

FINALLY got to watch the new Vid and my art was featured??? This made my night hehe!

I've never seen this show or heard of it until this video, and honestly I really like the art style it gives off old school comic vibes
