The Big Shit

[TREZEZ]

que bonita historia, hace tiempo lo vi por locomotion

[xXTheThinkTankXx]

This whole series of shows on CN reminds me of when there was some decent cartoons around... Looking back at it now as an adult, it's a sad and yet rather heart warming story

[coffeekoneko]

This cartoon makes me cry a little. :')

[wickedfeylady]

I love this. Their interactions are like something out of Absurdist theatre. "WILL YOU STOP SHAKING YOUR EYES"

[namtheblack]

@Handsome85 Why so ?

[TwilightLink77]

anyone remember the simpsons episode Bart the Genius this short's scrabble scene inspired the scrabble scene in Bart the Genius.

[iwantoldschool]

"If you think I did... well then... y-you're... you're just one of those people that thinks like that..."

[BratzSlipknotGrl3004]

My 6th grade teacher made me do an essay on this.... and one where a dude had to practice his damn piano...

[pavo6503]

@BratzSlipknotGrl3004 I love the Big Snit and the piano practicing dude. IIRC, he was singing Harry Belefonte's Banana Boat Song.

[laughing4younce]

[quacka101]

[phuckq]

I remember seeing this at a theatre before "Beverly Hills Cop"

[CookieFried]

does anyone know the song's title played in this animation?

[cowtippingrocks]

that cartoon used to come on the pay tv channels we got when I was a kid. That was like 25 years ago! At the time i was maybe 6 years old and even to this day cant figure out the eye shaking! haha.

[BigWolfBijuu]

O- e ...

[Calhorsey]

When I saw this, this was my parents. 25 years later, I clearly recognize me and my husband. We only saw this animation one time all those years ago, but he knows what I mean when I say "you always saw the table." Happy to see it again.

[sproket343]

[polysmart]

Ok, teams, BEGIN TO SAAAAW.

[blueeyesm2k4]

I love the yell for the cat,.. when I was a kid that left me in tears, I was laughing so hard.

[BHonlineproductions]

Why does the woman take out her eyes?

[remixchild]

The title is too easy to make fun of

The big S@&T

[jhilt7743]

AND SHAKE YOUR EYES AT ME LADY, THAT'S WHAT THEY SAY!!!!!!!!

[jamiehouse73]

can ANYONE point me in the direction of the episode where the fire spreads all over and destroys the universe!!??

[BANJOTUBAGUY]

It's an ugly cartoon that only a critic could love. And they did. It's rated as one of the top fifty of all time. But that doesn't mean I have to like it.

[Bawbster1]

Why are you always SHAKING YOUR EYES!

You're always SHAKING YOUR EYES HERE, SHAKING YOUR EYES THERE.

SHAKE IT HERE, SHAKE IT THERE

WHY DON'T YOU GO JOIN SOME STUPID SH-SH-SHAKE A ROCK A ROLL BAND

AND SHAKE YOUR EYES AT ME LADY THAT'S WHAT THEY SAY!!!

[NRatledge]

Sawing for Teens really needs to replace irritating TV programs like all of us whom have constantly suffered from hearing Sarah Pallin's annoying speeches. LOL! Who's with me?

[likethepear]

E E E E E E E

[dulCISSIMA1]

oh my god!!is brilliant!!!

[TheSmashBadger]

Everytime I play Fallout 3 and find an abandoned house, I always think of this. Its amazing, and a work of art.

[prgvidiot]

Those of us who get beat by our wives at Scrabble can surely identify with this cartoon

[Handsome85]

The Cat Screaming @ 1:30 was Priceless XD

[xXNek0jinXx]

@Handsome85 LOL

[MegzandPhea]

Well pull my lips off.

[MegzandPhea]

The lady looks like a burn victim.

[MacDragard]

I like Terrance and Phillip better.

[Izabellaishere16]

Awww that was soo cute :)

[Kylekorversgirl88]

this scared me when i was little :O had to watch it to get over this fear. It's actually quite beautiful.

[redmage87]

@Kylekorversgirl88 I'm glad that I'm not the only that was scared by the end of this one as a kid. But you're right; it's very beautiful.

[radmug]

hahah the cat at 1:30

[noobatholigy12]

,kridtyiiiiiiiiiidtttttttttttt­tttttttt5e7ery

[mskatwoman78]

I LOVE this video! I remember seeing it on CBC when I was younger. Before the days of the interwebs, I remember often watching CBC waiting and hoping for them to play this in between shows. Yes, it's weird, even kind of disturbing near the end, but it's just so very charming.

btw: @InsertName125 I couldn't agree more. Sawing for Teens should replace American Idol!

[bagelboi66]

Classic. My generation grew up in the cold war and in the shadow of the bomb. This kind of brings it all back.

[droid740]

Eh, shake your eyes at ME lady that's what they say!!!!!

[BlckSbthMan]

This is actually pretty damn funny.

[hamsteradorable]

the lady look and sound Marge Simpson

[roughie85]

awesome...havent seen this classic for a long time!

[428ghost]

Animated in Winnipeg. Woot!

[EdouardDubois]

It's strange... how a cartoon can be drawn very... basically, yet still become an instant classic.

[TiqueO6]

@EdouardDubois

yes, ideas are very powerful when expressed intentionally and articulated artfully.

[driven43]

and I thought YOU... wanted to play some SCRA-BBLE HAHAHA!!

[bulletprouf4]

that dog has a deeper voice than me.. LOL !

[Ypipable]

I can't believe your still on this...I thought you'd all change your dna by now....

[AGuyCalledRune]

[FlameAdder]

I loved that cat so much when I was a kid. Still gets me every time.

[PlumpTiger]

YOU'RE ALWAYS SHAKING YOUR EYES HERE! SHAKING YOUR EYES THERE! SHAKE IT HERE! SHAKE IT THERE!

[wilkes85]

As well as EEEEEEE!

[wilkes85]

From now on, CARROST is a word!

[InsertName125]

I wish Sawing for Teens would replace American Idol.

[wickedfeylady]

@InsertName125 Sawing for Teens > Jersey Shore, anything starring Charlie Sheen, and American Idol

[AnanasX3]

@InsertName125 right on!

[JohnnyAndWayneShow]

@InsertName125

you are not alone, man

[tritonrocks]

I learned from this video you need to extinguish all smoking materials whenever there is global nuclear warfare.

[grenadianmed]

I watched this about a 100 times when I was 13. I love it.

[Montork]

classic.

[zionravescene]

It's funny 'cos it's true.

[dieselheart001]

This would be sooo much fun on acid.

[chclatedip]

I don't know what it is, but this cartoon just instantly cheers me up.

"'Shake your eyes at me lady', that's what they'll say!" Lol.

[sarmanja88]

"If you think I did then you're just one of those people who... who thinks I did" HAHAH i love this cartoon

[Leatherbubba]

Why are these Canadian animated shorts all so creepy?

[Montork]

@Leatherbubba imagine watching this when your 6 or 7 and not fully realizing whats happening till later.

[4everfrankenstein]

I'M Not! I'm NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT!

[4everfrankenstein]

Still a crack-up after all these years..Thanx for the post.

[Nessthegreat]

[shimay96]

[MortgageFreeForLife]

I love this video! I saw it when it first came out on Super Channel MANY YRS ago! My Mom & I to this day still refer to it and laugh so hard! It's so cute!!! :)

[brucegrenehan1]

What do the scrabble letters say in the end? The ones the angels are carrying.

[ilovefall08]

@brucegrenehan1 i don't think they say anything.. they're just random letters.

[ronrutherford]

@brucegrenehan1 it took me forever to see it, but i finally caught what they say... which is odd.

The letters at the end that fly behind the angels spell out

HOTEL

10 KM

[jordanthecat]

@ronrutherford Is that what the letters say? If so, I must confess that I've never noticed that before either.

[Ypipable]

School time.

[landrykkb]

They had hinted at them both dying before the happy ending.

[landrykkb]

I have to admit that I never quite caught on to the fact they both died at the end of this the first time or two I saw this.

[landrykkb]

I was in Grade 9 the first time I watched this short and I'll admit that I laughed my head off at the crusty old fella!

[pazzensutra]

Didn't Pat Godfrey used to play keyboard for Bruce Cockburn? Oh and another question.....what the heck is "commercial religion"?

[oddsdiner]

I think everyone who believes in commercial religion should see this

[spikeadeth]

"sawing for teens"- classic

[VeryBerrylicious]

why is this so addicting to watch? lol I LUV IT!

[aldiakaroofus]

Seen this many times in animation class at Concordia U. and also in animation screenings in festivals, and it never gets old!

[brokenlizard2]

[xhairsfordemocracy]

[lionhead23b]

[5Cats]

[maggagiclub]

[brownshoeproductions]

If you think I did, then you're just one of those people that thinks I did!

[Spammer2012]

EEEEEEE best scrabble game ever.

Also, does anyone remember a cartoon about guns? It was really odd, I'm searching all over I can't find it.

[scottdeanslade]

@Spammer2012 Is this cartoon quite old like the big snit or could you be thinking about the cartoon in the middle of Bowling For Columbine called "A Brief History of the United States of America ". Look it up on Youtube.

[omgitskiraA]

we watched this in our grade 4 class!

:DD

[Kindasillylooking]

I like the music at the beginning, very elegant and silly at the same time

[CVAnimation]

1:30 is cool

[DogFood631]

Do you Canadians really keep big tires in your kitchens?

[DogFood631]

Why don't Canadians know how to properly spell carrots? 

[Swinger2006]

Now THAT is one dysfunctional couple.

[riceboy1701e]

They kiss and make up just as the bomb hits...how romantic!

[anearforbaby]

Brilliant.

[A7xdrumr]

WHY DONT YOU JUST GO JOIN SOME STUPID....SHAKE N ROCK N ROLL BAND!!? ahahaha

[pbrmedia]

Still makes me smile after all these years. Thanks Richard.

[Gleebo]

Jeez I remember this. Love it. This reminds me of another cartoon I saw when I was a kid, I've been looking for it for ages. It's mocking the videos from the 40s/50s which taught etiquette/manners at dinner. I'm trying to remember specifics but its so hard, only seen it once when I was like 8. I think it included buttering rolls with an axe, instead of reaching for food you used a lance or something. ANyone remember? I'd be grateful :)

[risokura]

@Gleebo Yeah, I know exactly what you're talking about. It was called Lady Fishbourne's Complete Guide To Better Table Manners :D.

[Gleebo]

@risokura omg, thank you so much. You're my hero :) If only I could find it online now haha. Seriously, thanks a ton.

[Tamms73]

LOL...i remember this from when i was younger... loved it!!

[Tambo45]

Hilarious!! WHY ARE YOU ALWAYS SHAKING YOUR EYES?

[jblattnerNYC]

[ColorzBox]

LOL How many times do you have to move E around to make a word appear?

[Spetsop]

Bittersweet cartoon... :( :)
