Spicy City - Love Is A Download Part 1

[AdaptRogue]

God, I was really little when I saw this...brings back memories.

[makamugloria]

this is the most cute episode ever T_T

[TheEliteArbiter]

This is my favourite episode...saw it last night on HBO Canada! :D

[dndrequiem]

Isn't this 'Love is a Download"?

[WolfLord5]

@dndrequiem It is, An Eye For An Eye is about a female cop who gets arrested an executed

[cometandcupids]

This show could have gone on for years. It was a ratings success but the people running things ruined that because they wanted to fire the writers and replace them with professionals. Ralph Bakshi's son was one of those writers and he wasn't going to fire his own flesh and blood leading to the cancellation. Thanks for nothing HBO.

[YaoiHuntressEarth]

@cometandcupids The show was too ahead of it's time. I just wish Adult Swim was smart enough to pick it up.

[llbuono]

lol its second life XD

[Kyokyo101]

This is Love is a Download, not An Eye for an Eye.

[EricSchwin22]

wow...1997, they predicted the future of the Internet.

[SanDhampir]

Jake's an asshole

[FragileBitch]

[monkiman21]

[aenteralus]

Pretty damn accurate view of things to come.

[bloodrunsclear]

[rayblack2004]

@bloodrunsclear Well it is ralph bakshi, and people are wearing flares now

[bloodrunsclear]

Good point XD

[rayblack2004]

@aenteralus when was this made? Avatars? wow

[aenteralus]

@rayblack2004 1997, I do believe.

[rayblack2004]

@aenteralus wow, how prophetic

[wickedfeylady]

I gotta say this ep is really sad. It makes me cry...the part from 2:59 -4:04 is pretty beautiful

[Johnlindsey289]

One of my favorite cartoons since i was 16 in 1997.

[daphane71]

I remember this! when i first watched it when i was a wee kid i loved it! and i still love it now.

i found it rather sad and touching.

[looker768]

this episode is toooo real.....wow

[youngcity150]

this show is crazy its b4 its time, internet did really exist these time.. now ppl are really cyber dating

Genius show

[VinnyVanYiffy]

did anybody else hear the flying things from Starfox Adventures at 5:17? turn it up to hear it. I know this show's way older than that game, so it had another source. what could it be and why is it there? subliminal message?

[karebare89]

i watched this when i was 8 years old! i watched Teletoon religiously as a kid, and that included stuff like this, Duckman, and so on.

[mastaplaya44]

whoa this took forever to find

[SouthParkFan8675309]

This episode is actually "Love Is A download"

[psychicwhoosh]

Back in the day, I saw this one episode during a free HBO preview, and although I had long since forgotten the name of the show, I was so taken by the concept that it stuck with me for years. This aired in 1997 back when the internet took 10 minutes to download a picture. It is astounding to see how this episode anticipates the immersive environment of social netwoking via virtual identities. Thanks for posting this little cultural artifact.

[0BALLINN0]

MY favourite episode! great concept

[1aundulxaldin]

Ralph Bakshi knows his women. I'm not Lying. He really does.

[Montork]

this was my favorite epp.

[project5121]

Same.Miss this show,wish they had more eps.

[CTM1978]

@Montork Mine too, I think there's a beautiful sadness to it, ultimately ending with hope and love.

[CartoonFan56]

Beautiful stuff. I wish they could have made more episodes and kept it going. I really like this show.

[OriginalGagBonkers]

I did hear a second season was planned, but however Bakshi had some sort of difference with HBO.

[Dawnaat18]

Yeah, they wanted to fire him and his writing team and hire some LA jerks.

[Skullgrin140]

This show is so danm cool! Ralph Bakshi should have made more eps of this show!

[FirstClassHeel]

I agree. My favorite episodes are this one (because of the touching ending), the one about the crooked female cop named Margo, and the first episode with the detectives kidnapping hookers and turning them into hologram strippers.

[DMitchellcat]

Awesome! 6foxxy9 these are great episodes. Is it possible you could upload HBO's other animated hit Spawn!?

[crazyair2006]

That seems unnesscaryas you can buy those this though this is rare and you can't get these anywhere. I agree though too bad it didn't last longer but that happens sometimes good shows just aren't apreicted until they're gone
