Obviously another director was involved in the production of this episode. Gotta give credit though, it almost managed to pull out the "classic Mr. Frog show" aesthetics. It even remains one of my favorite episodes out of the entire show. Proof that The Mr. Frog Show is worth watching after its golden era (seasons 4-17).

I wouldn’t say 4-17 is the golden era, I mean sure season 8 is amazing and you cannot do wrong with season 12, but all the others are “meh”. The Bug Harumph arc felt really forced, we didn’t need a multi-season-spanning slow burn. I think that there wasn’t a golden *era,* but just these spots of gold scattered around.

"Mr Frog in space" or "Mr Frog at Burning Man™" all felt really tacky and pandering. That's why shows shouldn't go above 36 seasons or so, cause I feel that's the point when you tend to lose the spark that made the show great in the first place, y'know.

If we can be honest here, ever since the whole ordeal with Mr. Frog and him being temporarily replaced, you can see that he has a new sort of energy about him. It's basically the sort of energy from season 4-17 where he was in his groove and wasn't just falling into the sort of character stereotype that we all took him for. And he fit into his role far better than the early three seasons for sure. I can't wait to see what else Mr. Frog has in store for us. 10/10 Eat the bug every time.

As a fan of the Mr Frog show since 1963 I was a huge fan of this episode when it aired. While it was seen as a filler beach episode to most, I saw it for what it was as it gave us some more insight into the characters of not only Mr Frog but Bug as well. It also foreshadowed the fan favorite beach season, so that's a win in my book.

actually Mr. Frog debuted in 1962, 2 months before February of 1963 when it "officially" debuted. It was made using a small set piece in a burbank parking lot with a sizeable workshop out of the back of a van driven by 3 guys calling themselves the "Shmuckleheads" iirc. incredible to know where Mr. Frog got his start, just some guy on the street willing to do some down on their luck guys a solid. Real props to him, the bug was actually his friend from college he got in on the show as well, theyve done the whole bit before that day but only in front of small crowds at frat parties. Impressive to say the least, they were just asked to do something they thought would be cool and out of roughly 7 different groups of people they were said to be the most appealing and hilarious thing anyones ever seen.

One thing that no one touches on, is the absolute physical dominance of mr.frog, he trained with navy seals to really perfect that ocean run in this scene. I can’t tell you the last time I’ve seen an actor put that much dedication into their craft.

My family has been fans of Mr Frog, for generations! Still as fresh as ever, if my mother was still with us then she'd surely weep over the artistic genius this show still maintains. God speed, Mr. Frog!

I just realized because of the frame rate of smiling friends and simplicity with brevity of each mr frog episode, there actually could be as many episodes of it on KZread as seen in the show, each with a different background I believe this is either a trend that will take the internet by storm once more for a couple months or it will be a trend that never was

The Mr. Frog summer special

It takes real talent to keep a show so fresh, SNL has seen it's ups and downs but Mr. Frog I feel has such a relatable almost intimate relationship with the viewer it keeps the show from jumping the shark. In contrast to other long running hits like LOST or Oz Mr. Frog provides not only that cozy family entertainment but it inspires and remains a driving force in the global zeitgeist to this day. Whenever I reminisce about Mr. Frog I am reminded of ep. 487 sn. 8 when Mr. Frog ate the bug and told us he loves us, it's writing like that, that sparks a fire in some people and motivates them with boundless ambition, thank you Mr. Frog you truely an inspiration.

After 14 years this still makes me laugh

I was a production assistant on this episode. There were actually a lot of logistical problems due to filming on location in El Salvador. Mostly issues with the weather being uncooperative because the studio heads thought they could keep costs down by scheduling the shoot during the off-season. Bunch of idiots. Also, the 2nd unit director was briefly taken hostage by a rebel faction, but fortunately, Mr. Frog was able to negotiate with them to secure his timely release.

I remember the E! Hollywood Stories about that incident!

I still love how the bug's dialogue from Glep's pre-production implies he somehow syrvives getting eaten by Mr. Frog every single episode.

You can tell the pacing is slower because in the later seasons they had other writers and directors but it still retains a lot of that classic iconic Mr Frog energy from the golden years, almost in a way that’s wittingly reminiscent while also juxtaposing himself against his own past. Truly touching stuff mister frog. You eat that bug buddy, you eat that bug for yourself and for America.

I wasn’t sure if this episode would deliver, being the stereotypical “beach episode,” but as soon as Mr. Frog ate the bug with that iconic Mr. Frog jawline, I knew it would be a good episode. Even said he loves us at the end. What a frog.

Honestly, this is one of the best episodes made in the entire season. They really went all out with the production and kept the fanservice at a moderate amount whilst still keeping the ongoing plotline of this episode being a psychological horror. I applaud Mr. Frog and the writers with making this gem of an episode happen.

I can see why this show ran for 47 seasons. (Fr I love this vid, great job!)

After all the foreshadowing and build up since season 11. This did not disappoint.

I like that even the credits are custom.

It’s the obligatory beach fanservice episode

I like how the bug screamed then quickly vanished

Classic season 5 episode never gets old

I guess every show has its beach arc eventually, I'm just glad Mr. Frog didn't let the producers have too much fanservice. would have ruined the plot for me.

Gotta love how Mr. Frog looks back and forth as he says "I love you!"

I was worried Mr. Frog was going to jump the shark like so many other shows, but they keep it fresh like every other season!

This was the episode that saved season 21 and renewed them for another season. This is one of my all time favourites, as this episode kicked off the Bug Arc.

Though not as good as "Mr. Frog's Fantabulus Fourth of July" (Season 8 : Episode 14) , "Mr Frog's Beach Blowout" (Season 14 : Episode 2) is still one of my personal favorites out of the whole series

The bug's performance is stellar, and he really fleshes out his character in this episode. We now know that in addition to sitting on rocks, he also likes to sit on beach chairs and go snorkeling. He even wears the snorkel outside of the water, as if its a comfort device to him. I believe they're subtly alluding to his dad's gruesome death, as he was hit repeatedly with multiple trucks, right after giving his son a snorkel. The lore in this show is just so cool, I can't believe they pack so much into a mere 10 second run time.

classic, Mr Frog continues to prove his perfect legacy, for running for 14 years and being a cult classic the Mr Frog show never fails to make me shit myself laughing, it hasn’t lost quality, it’s consistent, it’s perfect. by far the greatest show in all of history.

bro ur stuff is so good u need more subs u have serious talent!

You know what I’m gonna say it, This is the most underrated season of the mr. frog show The character development here is insane and nobody talks about it. Everyone thinks the last season was way better but no one thinks this one is.

This is actually a very impressive recreation of that scene. Well done!

Fun Fact: The first Mr. Frog episode debuted in 1962, 2 months before February of 1963 when it "officially" debuted on nationwide broadcasting. It was made using a small set piece in a burbank parking lot with a sizeable workshop out of the back of a van driven by 3 guys calling themselves the "Shmuckleheads" iirc. incredible to know where Mr. Frog got his start, just some guy on the street willing to do some down on their luck guys a solid.

The bug really carries this episode.

the winter episode was clearly better, but i can't argue that this one is just a classic.

Watching this episode in 2 times speed, I find that they have lined up this episode so that you can learns it’s plot even at a high speed. Clearly they are thinking about people who are attempting to watch every season in a day.

This remains my favorite episode of Mr. Frog its just so iconic and is peak storytelling

Remember this episode of The Mr. Frog Show aired after Mr. Frong made his phenomenal live on air public apolgy in the previous episode, being that he was now the richest person in the universe afterward he wanted to spice up the next season by going on an around the world tour. This is the frist episode of the season where Mr. Frog vists Hawaii.

I honestly really liked this episode, it was a change in the usual pace the show went for. I wish they did more like this

No good anime is complete without a beach episode.

I love how the bug wears a snorkel on land

I can’t believe that the late Simon S. Salty worked as Mr. Frog’s make-up artist on this episode. Now I understand how his iconic green glow was achieved

this needs to become a trend with people coming out with different locations

This show is getting more innovative and unexpected each episode

Nice of them to change the setting every once in a while. Reminds me of when Mr. Frog ate the bug at the North Pole in the Christmas special. Kinda forgot which one, to be honest.

I appreciate the sheer amount of references in the credits

In my opinion, Mr Frog should have burped up the goggles, but letting him keep the goggles is the most realistic path

i love mister frog

Damn, this Mr. Frog shows is still relevant? That's one long running show.

I’ll admit that the dialogue this season has had a lot more fluidity and soul to it. I hardly know how to word it myself but I think the actors themselves just understand their roles so much better.

Oh hell yeah, Kraft Punk as VFX engineer.

A beach episode? What’s next? A space episode? Four out of five: Not enough spitting

I loved that episode

This has to be one of my favourite mr Frog episodes because even after the 1-4 season golden age it still pulls of the classic mr Frog and we have to give all of the new producers and writers credit for all this hard work they are doing.

The only problem here, is that Mr. Frog didn't bring his iconic hammer to the beach and terrorizer the beach goers like he did in season 3. Overall good episode 9/10.

This looks so similar to the show. You perfectly replicated the art style! And I literally just saw Mr. Frog like last week man

I love this fanbase you guys are so creative and when I'm overthinking bullshit this brings a smile to my face

How do they come up with these crazy ideas, I’ve been watching Mr Frog since I was a child and it’s still fresh and original. Bravo Mr Frog

While definitely not as impactful or memorable as some of the other seasons, the tropical beach season will always have a special place in my heart. Glad that Kraft Punk was a VFX engineer, he really knows how to capture a scenery and make you feel like your there with Mr Frog

The Golden age of Mr frog, seasons 7 through 18.

KRAFT PUNK's work as a VFX engineer doesn't get enough credit. He blew up as a musician on the Eric Andre Show but his work on the Mr Frog Show was just as impressive if not better.

definetly one of the best episodes of season 17

This episode feels like Mr. Frog just wanted an excuse to go to the beach. Nothing feels natural.
