Here's a part 2 to my most popular video. I absolutely love this retro 90s art style/quality and the way Cosmo is more like a slick business man rather than a numb skull. I plan on posting one more of these because I remember there being another on of these episodes where they go to a toga party or something, but I seriously can't find it anywhere.
After that, I got enough votes from you guys to change my scope for my channel. I want to post video essays, theories, and rankings on cartoons now and I'm very excited.

I like the idea of Cosmo's old characterization being that of someone who's over confidence gets the better of him rather than being outright stupid.

Honestly, watching this show as a kid I never really liked it, I only liked the bright colors. I guess it could have actually been watchable in the earlier seasons but I completely despise this show now. (the voices also drove me crazy, they sounded like they were hyped up on... some kind of drug XD) That's not the point, tho The creator himself is very sexist and kind of a womanizer. I think in the later seasons maybe they tried to go for different vibes. I remember an episode where that little brat wished for all the women and girls, including one of his fairies (I'm assuming that's Wanda but i forgot names), to be sent on another island... I also remember an episode where the male fairy got pregnant, and I'm a little concerned why all the female characters, especially the young girls, are like dumb or mean! Like, that Butch Hartman guy must have not been very popular with the ladies in his life. I saw a video where he was kinda flirting with and teasing one of the voice actresses, and he also has the biggest ego ever rn but it's mostly about his art. I'm not telling you to hate the show, I'm just saying I had a bad experience watching it as a kid. The episodes I remember made me feel so awkward, but I feel like they were the more recent ones. (I don't like telling people my age on KZread, but I'm in that 18-21 age range) Maybe the older ones aren't that bad but it still makes me cringe.

I appreciate the dynamic to Wanda and Cozmo this way. The both of them being a bit ditsy creates a synergy where they rely on one another. It's a far more likable dynamic. They're odd, but ultimately good parents because they're a stable, supportive, relationship. Something Timmy desperately needs. In the official show they're more dysfunctional than Timmy's actual parents are. Which kind of kills me inside to realize now.

It wasn't really that Wanda was crazy and more just still adjusting to being a fairy for kids. Which given the backstory later established, makes sense with this Wanda more than the one from later.
In the full show, it's been stated before that 2 wands are more powerful than just one, which makes sense. But does that mean that any fairies without partners aren't able to do their job effectively? Because Cosmo and Wanda's performance died down pretty significantly in the show when either they split up or one of them lost their wand, and Cosmo said that the pumpkin coach was the best he could do with only his wand, so doesn't that seem a little unfair for other kids? Like the rich kid who had Juandissimo. Sure, the kid was upset about Timmy having 2 fairy godparents, but more because it meant Timmy had something better in the psychological department rather than the physical department, but would that kid only having Juandissimo mean that he can't have the same wish capability as Timmy? Like, for example, if they tried wishing for the exact same thing that required a lot of magical energy from their respective fairies, would that mean Timmy has the advantage there? I think I kinda answered my own question, but what I'm trying to say is, isn't Timmy having 2 fairies over the usual 1 kinda unfair to other kids, not just in the quantity but quality department?
@thunderthief5876
2 жыл бұрын
I think it’s more of a non issue since crazy wishes are a rule infraction or monumental bad ideas, like the super wishes. I don’t think any Godkid has them but super bike and super toilet were traumatizing so they shouldn’t have them either. Plus Cosmo and Wanda are “Two halves of a whole idiot” they help balance each other and make wishes better, but they are very error prone when solo. Like in the clip a vague wish of a manly costume, Cosmo’s interpretation left much to be desired.

Him and Patrick have the same poor development. They started off well-intentioned. Even if they weren't the brightest, they genuinely cared for their friends/family and wanted to see them happy. And even then, they _did_ have their smart moments. But as their series progressed they just became one dimensional characters whose entire purpose was 'haha look they're so dumb!!!' They stripped away all of the charm and made them borderline cruel/neglectful.

"Its funny cus he's stupid" and "he's stupid so it's funny" are two very different things
honestly, the dynamic between the three feels so much better, wanda is less naggy, timmy is less rude, and cosmo isn't an idiot, but the plot moves forward, and still has the comedic moments in it. its such a shame they went for the alternative direction also the conflicts caused aren't from stupidity, or arrogance, but genuine mistakes, ignorance, or being too vague on wishes, its kinda weird they are more open to showing up around people though, i kinda prefer the newer version of "nobody must see fairies"

Though a problem with them always being sleuthy about it is that it made their presence with Timmy boring. Seeing them at least occasionally veer their heads from hiding made sense since they can magically become anything. Sad it just turned into them being used as various disguises.

Too vague on wishes? When Timmy wishes to be the most wanted man in America, Tweedle Dee and Dumb make him wanted by the authorities when not one minute before he was talking about being rejected by women. How the hell do they flub that up? Who in their right mind confuses being wanted by the police over being wanted by women in that context? That was on them.

Even when I was younger, I had a theory that Wanda played dumber / more airheaded in earlier seasons to make Cosmo feel smarter and more confident. I was sad when the dynamic switched and became the usual "husband is idiot" trope because it could have lead to some sweeter moments where Wanda had to take proper charge and he would love her all the same because he kinda always knew she acted airheaded only for him.

I always imagined Cosmo and Wanda being parental figures to Timmy due to his actual parents being absolutely neglectful. Overtime, they kinda abandonned this theme in place of comedy but I wished they had focused on that more and build upon it. I really think FOP would've benefitted from having an ongoing narrative like Danny Phantom but given the demand of episodic comedies at the time it wasn't gonna happen.

Plus that Cosmo actually tries to find solutions instead of causing anything random that just makes things worse.

Cosmo losing his intelligence wasn't caused by writer's burnout, otherwise he would have been smart for the entire first few seasons, and probably even longer. That was a specific decision made early on by the writing team. I imagine it was caused by an attempt to make the show's humor more slapstick in order to appeal to children, especially considering the show was amassing a pretty large child demographic at the time.

grew up hearing cosmo with a higher pitch voice and this feels so weird, I don’t know if it’s bias but I think this looked and sounded so much better than what I grew up watching, feels like an entirely different show and it feels like the people working on it ACTUALLY cared.

I get why they stopped making Wanda dumb and made Cosmo smart, but I kinda liked their dynamic here more. Cosmo's wit and charm comes across well, while with Wanda being the smart one, I always easily overlooked her. She just wasn't as interesting as this Cosmo could've been if they kept with this direction. What I would've done is kept them at the same level of intelligence with them both having their dumb moments. Then poor Wanda doesn't constantly have to be sidelined and she'd get some funny moments cause... y'know... it's a comedy?
