Well I don't think that this awesome show can continue without the wildcard that was Norm Macdonald as Pigeon/Richard this might be Mike Tyson's cartoon but it kinda turned into Mike Tyson and Norm's as the best cartoon comedy duos since Beavis and Butt Head

One of my favorite parts of the show is when pigeon goes on about how he sometimes forgets that that's Mike tyson and how easily he could kill any of them. The delivery of it is jusy so good.

Mike's delivery of his lines were so spot on, so many jokes were made so much better when they came out of his mouth. we were so lucky to get 70 episodes of this show that's way more than what most AS shows get.
This show was so off the rails but yet really funny and charming at times.

Yea the rapist is good for a "kids" show, perfectly sums up the hypocrisy in the world and the double standards. Cosby will never be looked at in a pleasant light, but not the convicted rapist known as Mike Tyson. If we can do that for him, will we one day look at Bill cosby with any sort of positive light? I know Michael Jackson was forever tarnished as a child molester. But because Tyson raped an adult its ok? seriously....
Jim Rash as Marquess is incredibly underrated, some of his quotes and monologues are the funniest scenes in the show

The similarities between this character and "Ray Gillette" from Archer, as voiced by Adam Reed, are hard to ignore.
Norm Macdonald was an absolute legend I remember listening to most of his stuff in 2018-2019 and falling in love with mike tyson mysterious thanks to him. He really played pigeon perfectly and made a character most people would hate with a passion, and made him some what loveable, its really ashamed he died I never had a celebrity death hit me that hard.

An irreplaceable talent
I had no idea Marcus was jacked, and yet he still gets the shit kicked out of him on the regular.
HBOMax’s Velma could learn from Yung. She’s sarcastic and snarky, but not mean to literally everyone. Awkward, but not disconnected from reality and blaming society for all her problems. Smart, but doesn’t feel the need to constantly talk down to everyone.
You mentioned the episode he keeps killing astronomers and at the end he runs over a guy and is relieved when he figures out the guy is an astrologer. It was a moment that really hooked me to this show.

7:18 This is wrong in the 4 seasons they managed to solve 7 mysteries 1- found out who said Macbeth 2- help the farmer get to the restaurant 3- found missing boy in the tree 4- cut the red ribbon on the mining museum 5- found the cause of the ghost shares 6- found the missing Indian boy 7- help Margaret get her wish
As a note: 4:53 where Mike is talking about the show, was not on his podcast, it was Snoop's GGN show.
If we're going beginning to end, not just cherry picking the best seasons, this is my second favorite animated sitcom after King of the Hill. I love the weirdly calm tone of the show. Even as they're fighting aliens and ghosts and bigfoots, the show never really raises its voice, y'know? It matches the quiet vibes of the Nevada desert.

Love this show. Weird that you showed snoops podcast after saying it was hit boxin though. Hot boxin is a great pod.
Marquess is pronounced "mar-kwus", which is why it's funny that everyone calls him "marcus" Marquess is not pronounced the same as marquis, although I've done the same plenty of times too.
thats another reason why Mike is such an awesome person. how many big names wouldve just kicked these guys in the ass -> out the door? Mike kept his mind open and was willing to step outside his comfort zone to make some fun entertainment on a whim. the guy inspires me with literally every single piece of recorded history with him in it. he answers every question asked of him by taking a moment to think first and then will give you the most profound answer that will leave you thinking about all kinds of shit for awhile even though you only asked him how he felt about broccoli or something. Mike is a treasure. theres not much more to say. I appreciate growing up watching him navigate life as a warrior and even more appreciate him enjoying it finally as a sage. and a warrior. he would still knock a motherfuckers head off if he has to
I literally made Mike Tyson Mysteries, I used to watch this when I was young (my parents let me watch adult swim, bad on you mother and father I know) but like I sat, and was like "ima make a scooby doo parody with a snozzy ghost, a guy with a face tattoo and velma archetype." and didn't think about Mike Tyson Mysteries auUUUUUUUUUUGH!
Yung isn't pan. She doesn't sound sure of herself when she says it and we only ever see her attracted to boys. She was just being pressured to answer by pigeon.
"[...] and there's not even a mystery in this one; Iron Mike just mollywops the Prince of Darkness... and *it works."*
Having a famous poet arrested to protect his son, _and_ father of modern boxing. What a chad.

8:19 Hey, just wanted to say thanks for unearthing some buried childhood trauma for me with this scene lmfao, I totally forgot that as a kid I LOVED the Dexter's Lab movie but HAD to look away during this scene. The first time I watched it, I recall having a lot of fear as I imagined the situation happening to me, and ended up with nightmares. The story was so good that I never stopped watching the movie though, props to everyone who worked on that movie. And I'm glad that someone made a video about the show as a retrospective. In spite of the at-times obvious interference by Producers to shoe-horn in more sleezy comedy/overly-violent jokes, the rest of the show really does keep you watching for longer than you'd expect. The last season is basically full of voice lines trying to get you to hate Pigeon though, I swear, it's annoying as to how badly they end up botching the jokes in the later episodes and what got me to stop watching. Also, I found out about Mike Tyson's "checkered past" and I still don't know if I can separate the art from the artist in this case. Not when the art is an admitedly-funny cash-grab (to specifically help Tyson out when his income wasn't looking too great at the time), but a cash-grab nonetheless. The show's not exactly a high-brow masterpiece for the ages, let's be honest. I think it's a show worth remembering, as long as the context of the main character's IRL crimes are also kept in mind, but I can't blame anyone for having a different opinion at the same time. Thanks again for making a video that discusses the show in the first place, it was a great skimming of the series for anyone interested in learning about it!
One of the best running gags of the show is that mike throws up his dukes almost anytime he hears a bell
This is how you do a diverse mystery series MINDY KALING!
I feel like this show is what _Velma_ was trying to pull off, but they failed miserably.
It’s not pronounced “Mark-Ee” it’s pronounced “Markwess” and then mispronounced as “Marcus” by the rest of the team. And his real name is John Douglas, Marquess of Queensbury is just a title
Thanks Ugly Velma, I would not know this show exist without you. See, Mindy did do something right, by having other people recommending other shows better than hers.

Love this stupid show. Like Pigeon said, Sometimes we forget that’s actually Mike Tyson and he could kill any of us at any moment he chooses. Or the ghost of the dude who invented boxing is a freaking character and helped guide Mike Tyson, the man who finished boxing. And Mike is so damn earnest voice delivery.
