I had NO idea Gary Larson’s comic could be animated! What a pleasant surprise
I'd love to watch a fully animated Far side series.

Wow! Gary Larson animated! I never saw this! What a treat! Great sound design work!
Pure Talent !! To the creators of this comical masterpiece, I say THANK YOU !!! Gary Larson is a genius.
I've never seen this before and I love the Far Side, thank you! The sound design was just right.
I remember seeing this as a kid and i haven't seen it again till now. This was truly a wonderful nostalgic trip and wish to thank you.
The sound design was perfect, captured the tension, texture and that slightly surreal menace that Larson always got. Great job.
Way to bring Gary’s creations to life with fantastic sound design. I love it!
Had Vol 1 and 2 on VHS cassette in the late 90s - absolutely loved it - I was only about 11 or 12 and probably shouldn't have seen it - it was my mom's copy - shes a big Far Side fan
And I thought was weird enough as a comic strip.
I love it when the plane monitor just flashes "Uh-Oh" lol

I just recently remembered this classic from my childhood, which I recorded and watched again and again. Now I can thank one of the makers.

Noice, The Farside got many of us through the 80's.
I used to read all my dads far side books when I was younger, I miss those days.
Wow, I love that sound work, it makes everything come to live so much. Especially the hot rod time machine, love it! The scientist next door that has all the chicks and fun ;-) I love how the cranking sounds of the engine.
Sick and delightful. As Gary Larson always is! :)
Great achievement. The Far Side lives!
The sound design for this is perfect, and goes perfectly with the animation. Incredible work!
I had all of his books when I was growing up. I couldn't get enuff of them! For me, finding this video was an ABSOLUTE TREAT!
That was fun I enjoyed the heck out of that 🤪
Amazing work! These 2 specials are some of my favourite animated spots ever
The two _The Far Side_ animated programs are sublime and delightfully macabre and zany. I love the animation, sound work, Bill Frisell's music contributions, the dark humor, and the whole mood. They're basically perfect fare for when Halloween comes around in the autumn. Happy to find this video here.
excellent work kerry
I remember watching the animated movies when it premiered on CBS back in the mid-90's. Nostalgic!!
The Far Side and Calvin and Hobbes. My daily dose of laughter as a teen. Back when there was this lump of wood pulp called a newspaper.
the sound design matches the video so perfectly that it is simply awesome! Well done, and thank you for YOUR genius!
Thanks for uploading. I remember it being shown back in 97, but never got to fully watch it.
*@Technomorph Sound Design* Ive got nothing but admiration for recording & mixing engineers. Its a tedious indoor job. I wouldnt be able to sit still long enough in front of a mixing console or PC workstation long enough to get _anywhere,_ esp with a project like this one... At least 2 weeks of continuous cueing, re-cueing & editing, not counting the hours needed to record voice & sound f/x bits in the first place. So kudos to you, Kerry. This demo has helped me realize a better appreciation for your projects, and for that of R&M work in general And you just have to admit Gary Larsons wit & originality is at least as good as that of Looney Tunes & of the Pink Panther. People can disagree with me all they like, but his comedy is just as much on that level. Had Gary chosen to license his _The Far Side_ out to an animation studio & let them produce a TV series, at least the Simpsons wouldve had a worthy competitor! Food for thought: I cant be the only person burned out from 30 years of the Simpsons, and from that entire dull dumb franchise of Seth McFarland- - Family Guy, The Clevelands, etc. The Sitcom as a cartoon worked fine for The Flintstones, & the Jetsons. But enough is enough. There are too many other story premises & plots with which to begin- - including some that have yet to be invented- - to just keep exhausting variation after variation of the same dumb theme... its the very opposite of variety, of originality, or ANYTHING fresh & new Im afraid that if all the viewing Public is satisfied with are shows such as the Simpsons & Family Guy, then the next generation of commercially successful cartoon shows will be even more dumbed-down & pathetic than ever before. When I look at whats being produced today in live-action film- - in Hollywood & overseas- - its actually encouraging. Legitimate storytelling & writing talent is still here. But with regards to whats been most popular in the cartoon world?! As far as Im concerned its been in the TOILET ever since the late 90s The New Pink Panther was all that I could see carrying on until 1997, which was also the last year that Chuck Jones revived Looney Tunes. Tom & Jerry were also renewed by brand new producers from about 2000 to 2008. Looks to me like theres been little to nothing worth mentioning in new cartoon production since that time. So until something drastic happens, to me thats been the death of "domestic" American cartoons, ever since 😔 As she grew up, thankfully my daughter learned to have better taste & AVOID the Simpsons & Seth McFarlands garbage. And now that Im a grandparent, I would never let my grandkids watch that pathetic junk!

The Simpsons and Family Guy were great sitcoms up until a certain point so no need to dump on their entire legacy. If you're looking for quality current animated sitcoms, I'd recommend checking out Close Enough, Tuca and Bertie, Solar Opposites, and The Shivering Truth (this one has more of the dark, absurdist humor that you might associate with The Far Side).
Now, I am wanting to see the full "Tales From the Far Side 2" episode.

I can slightly remember that scene where a cow is playing an arcade game from when I was probably 3 or 4, but I could not remember from where until now.
Love the sarcasm. Great cartooning. Thanks!
Beautiful work! We hope for more!
Thanks for the memories!
Excellent work!
Good use of the clip from Vincent Price's movie 'The Fly' in the airplane sequence.
Man I love it
Superb. loved this!
FINALLY !!! the answer to all those out- place - artifacts!!!
Excellent sound design. For some strange reason NFB's The Big Snit (1985) jumped into my mind.😄
Wonderful. You have made my day.
Great sound design, truly in Larson´s spirit
Thank you for sharing, love this!
The stampede game was amazing.
Now THAT was well done.........................
Had no idea. Keep them coming please! 😊
The Far Side is & was GREAT! ✨👏🏼😎✨
Simply amazing ! Thanks
Complicated simplicity and hilarity ensues. G. Larson is creatively comical. When pigs and cows fly.
This is awesome.
Gary Larson is a genius 👍
Years later and it's still funny.
Some good shit here. Larson was the man!
Great reel!
Brings life to the single panel sketches we're used to from G Larson .
Wow how cool I never knew there was a Far Side cartoon.
How I wish these would be given the Blu-ray treatment...
Gary Larson Will Have His Revenge On The Funny Farm
Glorious.
Since the reintroduction of the comic strip recently, this should be released (1 &. 2 ) on dvd/blu ray

It was re released on dvd, but since gas become out of stock. I got it before it went out of stock. Best chance now is eBay or if it does get a new release.
this is just beatiful
Insane. Love it.
Kerry/TSD--- The compositions here are uniformly great. The overall tone (EQ) is brash with weak low end, suggesting your monitoring system is a bit off. Big woofers, rolled back mids/highs in your speakers will make you have a mix like this.
Well done; Brilliant!
Big fan of Gary Larson's work... I believe all the men's name is Warren.
Love it. Although they're all very good, my favorite is, "Hooves of Fury." Wish I could get a sticker of the fancy time machine with the inventor and the two ladies inside. Make that a pack of stickers so I can plaster them everywhere.
Never EVER gets old 😂😂😂❤
I had no idea Larson did cartoons. Awesome
I saw it when it aired on MTV back in 1994 It blew my mind ...away as a fan of the comic
I should get it on DVD. 😀👍💿
GOOD STUFF!!!!!!!!!!!
Can you upload the full Tales From the Far Side 1 and 2?
many thanks for this.....gonna show my grandboys
Perfect!
Thank you SO much!!
Awesome..Thank you
😭😭 Perfection
Just like the Dilbert cartoon series, fantasic cartoons but I think just came out a little to late to become popular shows. Sad though, I would have loved a long series of both.
👍👍,Timeless, F'ing hilarious 👏👏👏🖒
Best and funniest thing I'v seen all day.Brilliant! Kudos!
Does anybody have the link to the extended version?
Awesome.
EXCELLENT!!!!!
Does anyone know where I can get this movie now ?
Delightful! Esp insect jet.
Would it be possible to create a rogue zoom window/pundit interview broadcast window able to appear like the appearance & disappearance of the hot-rod time machine in any live podcast. Like *V* ? TV Broadcast?
Thank you for this. Been a fan of The Far Side for a long time.
Fantastic! Is there another similar clip?
I like the Dead/Alive switch!
i'm fairly sure I've seen this before on *Air Crash Investigations*
This is giving me Courage vibes!
full length feature film when??
I had never seen a Far Side cartoon before. I loved the comic and I really enjoyed this - thank you.
Are these available on DVD or Blu-ray? I never saw these specials and I'm a huge fan of Larson's work.
I wonder what the dairy cows talk about right before or after milking.
Now that what I call comedy!!
2:46 If it was composed by Thomas Chase and Steve Rucker, the music of this scene would be more dramatic
So your the mastermind behind the sound? I rewatched that special and noted how well done the sound effects were! Such layer and texture. It really complimented the animation well!
Encore! Encore! Encore!
