Lars's prank is super dangerous, dusk to dark is when I saw the bears come out on the trails. And in Cali we also have Mountain Lions which kill adult bikers fairly easily, my local mountain has a fallen body or missing person once a year. Lars should get a death scare over that ❤

I was about to say the same thing. And how the sign he removed could get other hikers or bikers lost or killed. That missing sign could be the difference between life and death from exposure. Mountain lions are no joke and neither is exposure.

My fave episode of this show was when Sam couldn't surf due to his size not being adequate to his board and Tito coming in showing him the awesomeness of a longboard and jow being a big dude isn't a bad thing. As a bigger dude it helped me accept that I could be a big dude and still participate in stuff, I just needed sturdier equipment.

Lars definitely needed this. If anything to realize he cared about Twister, who is a bit wrong, but he did reveal before Lars got too upset. Now had The parents, police, and others got involved and Twister stayed hidden longer, yeah he'd be do wrong. I think he came out of hiding at the right time.

Amen! Sometimes the only way to reach people is to make them feel that same fear they cause you. I speak from experience.. I won't go any deeper than that but just to say it really does wake people up, especially if its the person that abused or bullied you. Watch their behavior change VERY suddenly when they get a taste of that fear.

This episode actually got me to treat my younger siblings a lot better every chance I got to see them during supervised visits with our parents. I would pull all kinds of pranks on them before the state took us from our parents. Then I saw this episode and it reminded me of the time I ditched my brother in the woods outside our town to teach him a lesson about touching my stuff. At the time I didn’t realize that he could have very well never been found. It would’ve definitely been my fault if he died of exposure or a wild animal attack.

Best episode of Rocket Power, along with the one where the kids think Tito murdered Raymundo. This series is so dear to my heart as an outcast latino kid who loved playing sports, and I'm glad of seeing critics giving it some love!

When I was a kid, I had satellite cable from 2000-2003 and I spent most of that time watching Nickelodeon cartoons and some Cartoon Network stuff. I've mostly seen Hey Arnold, some SpongeBob and Rocket Power. I only regret never seeing Samurai Jack and Invader Zim at the time. Rocket Power, however, is the most early 2000s cartoon I've ever seen. That was the time period where everything was extreme or just over the top and weird in some way.

I was a kid when IZ aired, and it was cool, but the air times got downright Steven-Universian. Especially towards the end. And this isn't even including the 9/11 controversy. There were no other ways to watch episodes except for: a) reruns (which Nick was pretty generous about for a time) b) shitty downloads over fan servers, P2P programs, or mIRC (really showing my age here 😂😢) c) you or a pal recorded them I wasn't as into SJ at the time, but IIRC, there was some BS there, too.

It's awesome that you're covering Rocket Power, it doesn't get nearly as much love as other great Nick shows. I hope that you end up covering the "Race Across New Zealand" special. I loved that one

I think the prank was totally justified given the lost kids would have spent an hour both being in potential danger and being potentially afraid for their own safety. Where I did think they went too far is mocking Lars for showing a soft side. They should be encouraging him to be reflective, not punishing him for showing he's not a total dick. But I guess that level of immaturity is what you'd expect from kids that age.

I remember watching this and crashbox around the same time, revisiting either bring back some strong emotions, what an interesting time to be alive, and revisiting the show like this bring ya right back to being a little kid with little responsibility and all the free time to roll around on the floor and watch these awesome shows.

You know what part of this episode I've always remembered? The way Lars says he wants to get some bean burritos from the gas station. The way he emphasizes the word "gas" makes me think the writers were trying to use a weird form of toilet humor.

I don't think he went too far. I had friends in that time period who did something similar to me and I wish I did the same to them, but alas, I didn't. On Halloween 2005, I wanted to stay home and play video games because I felt I was too old to go trick or treating anymore, and my "friends" showed up and asked if I wanted to go with them (they were actually older than I was and I told them they were to old for it). I told them that I wasn't going because it was lame, but my mom basically said I need a life and that I should go with them to get out of the house. She even double checked that I had my cell phone in case we got lost, but that wouldn't matter in the end. They dragged me to a neighborhood I wasn't familiar with, took my phone "for safe keeping", and sent me to ring the doorbell of a house that I found out later was vacant. I turned around and they were gone, sending me into a panic attack unlike any I've had before or since. They basically forced me out of my house against my will, took me to an area I didn't know, took away my means of communication, and ditched me. If I didn't say it already, I was 13, rarely left the house, and didn't know anybody aside from these asshats. I have no clue how I got home, but for the rest of my time in school and most of my adult life I have refused to leave the house for anything other than work/school and I have had serious trust issues that even professional help has had a hard time telling me were unjustified. And as for the guys whondid it? They continued to be my "friends" at school until they got me suspended for some bs they did. Moral of the story: don't ditch younger kids in areas they don't know, especially without phones. It fucks them up for life.

I just recently started watching Rocket Power again lol Such an epic cartoon and a HUGE part of my childhood. I got heavily into skateboarding during this time and played Tony Hawk for HOURS lol I don't care what anyone says, the 90s and early 2000s were the best.

I remember this episode and I loved the payback that Twister gave to Lars and his friends. When it comes to Lars prank it was stupid and dangerous cause tricking your little brother to go into the woods at night and possibly getting lost in there, Lars was lucky that it all turned out to be a prank. As a kid I thought that Lars sadness thinking his brother was dead because of him was mostly due to fear of getting in trouble but after rewatching this episode as an adult I see that Lars deeply cares for his little brother and the thought that he caused him harm devastated him. I wish in the final season we had gotten a episode or two to develop Lars character and his relationship with Twister beyond the older brother picking on/pranking the little brother.

When I saw the title: yes, I do! When I heard "let's get a microwave bean burrito at the gas station": why do I remember that line?

For me, this was one of my “when nothing else is on” shows, However, this episode is definitely my brand of dark humor/pranking!

I’m the oldest of 5, our little brother, the second to the youngest, was kinda the target of all sibling jokes and pranks growing up, by myself included. When he was in his twenties he finally found the courage to sit us down and tell us what it did to him and asked those who were continuing to bully him to stop, what Twister did to teach Lars a lesson, was very mild. You see, siblings can be incredibly cruel to one another and we really don’t know how are actions effect those who we share bloodlines with unless they tell us. I urge anyone who knows they were shitty to a younger sibling to sit them down and talk about it as adults, because bullying is bullying is not something different because you’re family and it can still leave lasting scars on a person’s heart. For what it’s worth, because I was really the only one who took it seriously and never treated him poorly again, 15 years later our relationship is closer than it is with any of the other siblings, and we weren’t that close growing up.

Even I have to admit it was very justified. Lars went too far and could have actually hurt him severely for real. But from this experience I can tell he really does care about Twister in his own twisted way

This reminds me of a book I had as a kid called Honey Bunny Funny Bunny. The story is basically about a bunny girl who is always being picked on by her older brother because he "cares about her" and that's "how he shows it", or something to that effect. As I got older I thought it was sorta weird that the book justified the brother bullying his sister because that's how he showed that he loved her. Like she should just accept his abuse. Doesn't seem like a very good message for children. Kind of unrelated to this episode I guess, it just made me remember that book.

As a kid, we got lost in the woods quite frequently, but we knew once we found the train tracks, we were good because we'd either end up in Raleigh (the neighboring town where we could call our parents) or near our junior high, which we knew our way home from. I always liked the episode because my older brother bullied me, but like Twister, I still idolized him and looked up to him. He and his friend intentionally got me and my friend lost in the woods, promising to take us to the big cliffs (there were small cliffs we always went to, and the big cliffs that were miles into the woods). He and his friend ditched us at one point and my friend and I were so upset because we were really looking forward to climbing the big cliffs. So we walked until we found train tracks and got home from there. To make it worse, when we got back to my house, my brother and his friend were in my brother's room playing video games. I threatened to tell Mom and he let me and my friend play Silent Hill on his PlayStation if we didn't tell. 😂

This episode was one of my faves because it gave Lars some depth, but I always got secondhand embarrassment at that moment of genuine regret on Lars's part and how many times they replayed it LOL

Loved watching this show on the splat at night. This, along with tmnt 2012, carried nickelodeon during the summertime for me when I was a kid

Rocket Power was such a great show! Thanks for this!

love ur videos! keep up the good work! nothin beats the old school 90s 00s toons!

The only reason I think Twister is justified is because Lars is needlessly mean, even when he's being punished into doing something nice for his little brother, he still chooses to be a jerk and a bit too cruel. Lars really feels like the type to not feel remorse even if Twister were hurt, so Twister possibly dying, and it even being his own fault, may be the only thing that he would ever feel remorse for.

14:36, joke on Cartman he actually killed his own father

Lars got a taste of his own medicine when Twister pulled that on him. As a younger sibling, I never felt love and affection with an older sibling teasing and harassing and pranking me on the daily. It just lead to others thinking it was okay and years of bullying. This included family members and classmates. Older siblings, teasing isn't it. Twister went long enough to trick Lars, but not as far to waste emergency services and scare the crap out of his parents.

Faking your death is a bit far, but they also didnt drag it on for farr too long. It feels justified considering how it ended, but if could have ended worse. There also absolutely was meaning behind it, it showed twister that his brother cared and showed his brother just how much he cared about twister. My sister was terrible to me and i thought she walked on water. Its like an abusive relationship in a sense where youre just hoping maybe this time they will actually change and get tricked time after time when they dont. I always loved this show though. I used to go biking or skateboarding around town and picking up nachos and an energy drink at the gas station were wonderful memories. Sorry that was jumbled with multiple points haha i loved the video!! :)

I honestly thought this would be much more... shocking. I mean come on, Lars put YEARS OF TRAUMA on Twister, while Twister only pretended to be dead for like, what, 5 seconds? Yeah no, fuck Lars lmao

And Lars after thought that his brother was dead because of his schème he felt so guilty of this and have "killed" his brother. And Twister did purpose of waiting like he saw his brother reaction so,we can think he was lost

Good ol’ Lars, the original Michael “FoxyBro” Afton of Klasky Csupo cartoons

I love that twister was able to get Lars to admit that he loves him, even though it took him faking his death to finally get him to admit that. Lars would never actually physically hurt him I don’t think, but he was terrible to him his whole life, so he kinda deserved that prank.

I loved this episode I love Rocket Power! I never thought about this episode being dark but Lars had it coming to him. I’m pretty sure any other prank they pulled on him wouldn’t have the affect on him as this prank did. I would love to see more Rocket Power reviews and videos on here. My brothers cousins and I loved this show so much

Love rocket power! Glad to see more reviewers giving it a fair shot. As an adult I’m mixed on this episode too. I think it would sit better with me if it started an attitude shift in Lars that carried over to future episodes. But I know these are mostly stand alone episodes that has to return to the status quo.

It’s so funny how as a kid those burritos looked so good… as an adult I’m like that was your only condition? Still looks delicious though 😂😂

The lesson is pretty obvious but i think its a good lesson, even today with how people react to stranger danger, and how over protective people can be of kids. 6 years ago we baught to much holloween candy and no-one really showed up so my stepdad went to the neighbors to try and get rid of some of it and the dad refused, i can see why its a smart idea but was also bad for us (my mom has diabetes and i have enough dental problems). Sorry for my rambling, you made another great video even if i didnt see the series alot. Thanks

This episode is permanently burned into my brain. Thank the algorithm for finally extracting an expounded exposition from your brain so mine could vibe to it.

14:38 And also releaved that Scott’s father is also Cartman’s father despite his mother is hermaprodite

17:09 I stand by that statement

I loved this show as a kid and I was never one for sports, in fact whenever I thought back on this show it was always the characters that I would remember more than the actual sports stuff. But as far as Twister going too far, I'm not sure about that. If he dragged it out for a while, yeah, but this is something that you could bounce back from pretty quickly once you realize the person is okay and just faking it. I could be remembering wrong, but I get the feeling that a lot of cartoons had characters do one-off faking their death scenes in those older cartoons. Either faking their deaths or pretending they ran away to see how others would react to them being gone. I don't really see this as anywhere near Eric Cartman levels, at least here Twister's motivations felt far more innocent. He wanted to teach his big brother a lesson but he didn't want to actually hurt him or emotionally damage him. He could have let it go on longer, but he let Lars know very quickly that he was okay.

as someone who wasn't into X-treme sports type stuff outside of thinking Tony Hawk's Pro-Skater and Underground were fun, I liked this show as a kid and don't understand the hate it gets. like yeah, maybe the theme didn't age well but if anything that gives the show an identity. people going out of their way to say this show was bad because it was outdated is just silly.

I was one of those people that didn't really watch this show because of a lack of interest in the sports aspect. I did enjoy the nonsporty episodes though when I did watch it. It honestly wasn't a bad show. I don't think he went too far because it's something that could have happened as a result of Lars's prank. I actually might give the show a proper watch now that I'm older.

This episode describe my whole childhood with my brother

I watched this show for the non-sports elements, since I was never a very athletic kid. I actually remember this episode, and looking back it was wild. XD

Please make a video about Static Shock !!

That was an infamous harsh lesson that Lars had to learn!

I was the show's demographic, but was not a fan of skateboarding or anything when growing up. I played Tony Hawk's Pro Skater ALL the time, though. 2 cousins were into skateboarding though and loved the show. It took me till I got a bit older to actually sit down and watch the show.

This show got me into skateboarding and my first skateboard was a team rocket skateboard

Fantastic vid! I wish i knew a million ppl that i could tell them all to sub to you! Bc these are the best vids on KZread! Love rocket power and i was so huge into extreme sports (still a little to this day) and come back to this show as well as other 90s nick to feel that great nostalgia Now onto our homework Twister went waaaay too far and it was awesome! Lars needed that huge push into a new caring perspective! I woke heartedly believe lars graduated to the next level of big brother in this episode (altho other eps still has lars be a pain like the tix in the beach break movie or twist blaming him for pulling the fire alarm) and it was very satisfying! If this was behind some houses no biggy but in the middle of the woods?! Lars went crazy so twister had to meet that! And by doing so really showed him the seriousness! Like think about social media pranksters if they're innocent funny pranks yr usually ok but if they're meaner or dangerous that'll come back and bite you! So yes taste of his own medicine aaaand he helped him become a better big brother thru a sorta scared str8 experience! The more traumatic as the prank... the better! Ugh now i need a bike ride and 711 bean burrito or taquito!🙈🤩😋🤣🤣💖

I know this is off topic but you’re persona is very unique and cute!
