Interview with the makers of HomeStarRunner

[CerealCam486]

When is Homestar Runner coming back, huh?

[EQNCobra]

Oh God, why did they have to end it?! R.I.P. Homestar!

[XChildOfTheMermaidsX]

See ya on the otha side, bruddas chaps. I'll miss you in my childhood.

[SAIL4323]

I miss you Pulse!

[robotfreshpies]

Christmas isn't the same with a Christmas toon from H*R :(

[castledragonsword]

maybe the brothers chaps took an arrow to the knee

[dukeofhipster]

It's just not Christmas without a Christmas homestar episode...

[YoungJeezyCOD]

@dfullerton8 You're doing it wrong. ;) lol

[lecoffeebandit]

I miss both Homestar Runner and old school G4, good times in 8th grade!

[ScanimalProductions]

Too stiff.

[mallratt07]

4:05 Larry Bird would have missed that shot

[actclicksmile]

reminds me of college. god I'm old.

[LOLC2k]

One time I found a bagel and it

[minislip6]

thanks for several years of fun homestarrunner... may you rest in peace. Best of luck to the baby. Thank you, chaps

[GBAura]

@minislip6 Relax, they said they will be coming back either next year or the next two years, I heard this from a friend of mine.

[minislip6]

@GBAura well, i don't know your friend... but best of hopes

[YTman28]

They hadn't updated the website at all because they died.

[WillPk4FOOD]

@YTman28

Please get your facts right. One of the brothers married Melissa Palmer and they had a baby. They've been too busy with that to continue to update the website.

[adi2k88]

nintendo 64!!!!!!!111!!1!

[TheUbercool21]

the homestarrunner website has offcially stopped being updated a while ago it is depressing because I loved that website so much.

[Agatonga]

@TheUbercool21 daaaaaaam yor serious>? wher did you see that>? iv bin checking d site so many times now.........NO UPDAAAAATTTEEEEESSSS..........­..im sad..

[Charleygirl99]

@Agatonga me too.... the day when a new toon comes out i will probably explode and or faint with happiness... WE MUST STICK TOGETHER!

[TheProjectMJ]

@Charleygirl99 I heard that one of the brothers had a baby... But I think that'd really make things more funny like Homestar with little girl? :( It's so sad. I miss this. I hope they keep doing it I can't believe they haven't updated, not even for holidays! They don't have to update on emails but it'd be nice if they did the holidays :/

[gamersxs]

@TheUbercool21 Me too. They were a big part of my childhood.

[Jangleman12]

beena while since they updated.... :(

[MrRiggyRiggs]

HOMESTAR RUNNER!!!

[TheXeeman]

haha I found out about you last week, when I saw the techno song. Amazing piece of music.

[CleverCactus]

Someone jumped the shark? I dunno, that bear holds the shark up pretty high it would be hard for anyone to jump over it.

[ninja067]

@CleverCactus hey dude not cool the cheat is scared of those guys

[Enuiofmoonglade]

the girl doing the voice of marzipan is pretty dam hot

[MyMadFX]

i miss homestarrunner....come back!!!!

[anarchy22x]

~FLAG~

For to much awesomeness.

[anarchy22x]

Haha that's awesome, he needs to do voice acting for movies - next Pixar movie, hell yah

[spencertron88]

lol Melissa Palmer looks like marzipan XD

[CaptainCrunchOwns]

Chill dudes, that's cool.

[thumper300zx]

LMAO @ Jumped the Shark. If there is someone living in a "reality" that allows them to say that, they need to go to the beach, relax, catch some rays, maybe eat some popsicles, spend some money, stop worrying about getting robbed, and smile once in a while.

[somerandomkrn]

gosh I miss them.

hopped on the bandwagon when Trogdor was born.

[JonathanBloggs]

haha marzian isn't even doing a voice. Brilliant

[Gummybear4444]

The last thing they put up was the april fools toon from 2009.

[XTheFederation]

Bubs = WIN

[RainpathofShadeClan]

"...THERE WAS THIS ONE TIME WHEN I HOOKED UP MAH LAWNMOWER TO MAI NINTENDO; AN' AFTER THAT, I GOT THE HIGH SCORE EV'RY TIME!"

Ah, these people are awesome. It's where I get my daily dosage of surreal humor and webtoons. Keep on pwning!

[jkunblade]

Well I'll be, it's been almost a year but, they have finally had the extra time in there lives to make a new toon.

[macwoodtv]

i love homestarrunner, no racism, no sexist, no jokes about homosexuals or mentally disabled, this is good comedy

[Charleygirl99]

YEES! THERES A NEW TOON OUT!! :D

[marxandkirbyrocks]

@Charleygirl99 I WANT TO HUG YOU.

[Charleygirl99]

@marxandkirbyrocks ROFL!!! I WANTED TO HUG EVERYONE WHEN I SAW THERE WAS FINNALLY A NEW TOON OUT!! :D

[siskavard]

2:57

[fuzztubeyou]

How did Strongbad becoem the star of the cartoon? I want some good Homestar runner cartoons >: (

[JujuBean1967]

24 need to loosen out

[ShadowCrowX]

I thought Marzipan would be fat, but she's alright still. Weird when I was typing about it, she just made the same kinda comment.

[edvaira]

matt chapman is such a good voice actor,

[JordanLocksley]

I just had a baby. I didn't stop anything I normally do. What kind of kid is this, anyway?

[JordanNMatthew]

@JordanLocksley the kind that throws a piss fit when something he likes gets taken away

[Shavarnarak]

I mean, I know some extreme doormat who'd still be a fan if the Chaps beat the shit out of them personally and stole their money is going to tell me that I'm wrong for being pissed off about this silent year-long hiatus. But fuck them too, that's the sort of fans I can't stand for any work. And sure they'll whine about how I'm all 'entitled' and they can't stand people like me. Well that's another reason to say fuck you to those kind of people. I can't stand people like that. Fucking doormats.

[Shavarnarak]

One thing I've come to realize about the creators of homestar runner is that they don't give a shit about their fans.

Leaving for a year is one thing, but it's the whole not telling anyone anything about the why, that's the part that irritates me, and quite a bit too.

If there's no halloween toon then i think it's clear for me, much as I used to love H*R, if they're going to be like that, then screw 'em.

[himansku]

@Shavarnarak NO U

[Abelhawk]

I think I have a man crush on Matt and Mike.

[jpmcruiser95]

I really wanna work for these guys

[jpmcruiser95]

HOMESTAW!!

[lifepod2036]

Matt Chapman stole my character voice IMHO... I did this back in 2000 about a year before he started. So did the creators of southpark. Im well known in the whatever and they stole it

[Zawicki1]

@lifepod2036 Actually thats a pretty general voice. I have heard alot of unintentional voices like that.

[spungii117]

Wow homestar is awesome i love ya guys

Newgrounds is good too

RvB

Then my soul got destroyed by 4chan

oh well hahah

screw ebaumsworld

[originalcoolstud]

24 people spazzed out and missed the like button

[Utharas]

These guys, haven't done anything in forever.

[tscotty32]

just awesome.. just doing something fun and life is good.

[jandrewluna333]

whats G4?



[BouncekDeLemos]

@jandrewluna333 It's an American cable television channel that focuses on video games.

[mratomdude]

polygonal breast

[icecreamcakeandpiex]

0:14 I thought he's gonna say DR. OCTAGONAPUS BLARGHH

[DannyV1991]

i thought strong bad was spanish

[Hauntzor]

@DannyV1991 Originally they were going for a Mexican luchador wrestler accent, but later on they decided to give him a rough Bronx sound.

[MrBobtheclock]

[afsbjah2]

[LittleLottieLorah]

@afsbjah2 right on!

[cloud4an]

[kingmmm121190]

If there was anyway my life could be more like theirs...

[GMRDUI]

It's so weird that they're just normal guys

[reobbingl]

I'm on video crack.

[JoelleDunn]

I think I'm in love.

[jaderoseofchaos]

These guys rock!

[smellslikevin]

homestar is awsome best websit cartoon ever

[Unclevertitle]

2:43 Yeah, Nintendo!

[TwoTailsTheFox]

I wish I could hang out with Matt. He's awesome.

[KSE828]

Matt looks so short @ 4:05

[sutjas16]

if they're such Nintendo fans how come most of their games are reminiscent of Atari?

[Kristanni20X6]

because maybe they're fans of Atari too

[samuraikarasu]

They haven't updated in a month, they've given at least hundreds of hours of entertainment to people for free.

Guess which one doesn't matter to people as soon as the other happens?

[MrUglydollproduction]

the video ended at 5:13 instead of 5:14

[ChipNick87]

Gee, I wonder why......

[jkunblade]

they havent updated in FOREVER!

[LittleLottieLorah]

thats so sad :(

[ColossalM]

They had a baby, they said they won't be updating for a bit.

[TheCreator4]

But the last 3 babies didn't take this long to raise!

[ccrstarpanda]

as a website runner, i have to say in their defense its really hard to update

real life gets in the way, and my sites a comic, they have to make entire vids!

[awesomepie3]

@jkunblade it was updated on the 12 of april

stuff

[GrymHood]

@jkunblade

Go to the homestarrunner website.

[MeltedSherbert]

@jkunblade pinkie pie: FOREEVEEEEEEEEEER

[jkunblade]

@MeltedSherbert what?

[MeltedSherbert]

@jkunblade lulz, im a brony making a reference to pinkie pie's FOREVAAAAAAAAAAAR because you said they haven't updated in 43\/312

[numanuma20]

You should make a game like animal crossing.

[darkcylander]

isn't this from that one nintendo wii game? that was a fun game, the characters are kind of trippy looking though, like dr. soose characters

[smellslikevin]

homestar runner is amazing

[PlathemusBraxton]

lmao! "Everyday...before we say our prayers...sorry."

[MikeHall683]

if i knew this guy, i would make him do the strongbad voice constantly

[RandomActsOfAdolence]

@MikeHall683 here here lol

[andrew11235]

I don't know... I think I'd have him do Homestar's voice. And which one does Strong Sad?

[cyborgtroy]

@andrew11235 - I think the same guy does all the male characters. The other guy does the Powered By The Cheat characters, and I think the other guy's wife is Marzipan.

[Smatchimo]

to this day i still use strongbads method to make the techno music...

[patthebrit3]

Now you gotta stiffen in.

[pat2rome]

And after that, I got the high score every time!

xD

[BeastPeople37]

My Elementary Art Teacher Was Roomate With Matt

[noamben2]

thats so cool! i wonder if i know someone who knows you...that way i would know someone who knows someone who knows someone that knows matt!

[noamben2]

Haah gamecube. the second he said "Zelda" my heart rose! i love the brothers chaps even more.

[KireektheAndroid]

[HappyGrazzzCartoon]

Matt! Great Job on the voices! Love the cartoon! Keep up the good work!

[singstargurl96]

OMG i cant believe that this is on here... im totally addicted to HomeStarRunner and these people are uuber talented

[haloDSismygamertag]

I finally know what the Chapman brothers look like... I never pictured Strong Bad's face looking like that... =3

[LulJam]

Or bubs, coach z, homestar ect ect.

I thumbs down you good sir.

[homestar4ever]

if you think about it homestar and marzipan had a baby in wheres the cheat when homestar made mazipan a veggieburger and she pretended it was a real baby that she actully named it homestar junior!

[butterflysuper12]

Strong bad's voice actor's kinda cyte :)

[BlackRoses4427]

NEVER QUIT MAKING HOME STAR VIDEOS! I'll KILL MYSELF!

[hvnlyvoice08]

this is a little morbib, if you need to talk...i'm here for you

[RobFireburn]

It was really cool that they did this, but the sound quality is'nt very good

[BlackRoses4427]

I agree totally

[homestar4ever]

dude! if you guys ever stop making homestar i'll grab my 12gauge and shoot my self in the leg!

[Ozarkeree]

DO IT

[ErichoTTA]

I was relieved to see the new Strong Bad email.

[supermario134]

YAY Matt Nintendo Rules!

[SakamotoIbuki]

"There was this one time, when I hooked up my lawnmower to my nintendo, and after that, I got the high score every time!"

I laughed so much at that line. XD

[dxjohncenacaz]

@SakamotoIbuki I don't get it.

[hchn333]

My friends name is matt chapman XD

[YTman28]

Imagine if Homestarrunner is rewarded as a worldwide T.V. show.

[opti95]

dude..4:10

[okreset]

Nice fellows. I love their website.

[Nintendjon]

G4 sucks balls now since they stopped being devoted to video games.

[ChocolateSoda1]

matt looks so short!

[Crazyeraser1]

Man i want G4!!!!!!! But I dont feel like paying...

[Crazyeraser1]

I swear Matt is JUST like me! I looove Nintendo, no other system does it for me. Also, remember that time Homsar had the crowd noise comin out of his mouth? Thought of something like that before it came out!

[ShadowSpyrte]

GO NINTENDO AND HOMESTAR RUNNER!!!

[SkyMaro]

YES.

[Crazyeraser1]

Heck yea!

[dizzythegreat]

STIFFEN IN

[pongrules12]

"their was this one time, i hooked up my lawn mooer to my nintendo! and then i got the high score every time!!!!"

HAHAHAHA

[xLaserLifex]

Haha these guys are awesome :D

[jstapen]

these guys probaly own the court. the actualy make A LOT of money

[pat2rome]

"And after that, I got the high score every time!"

xD

[KillYounglings]

Is that...THEIR...court?!

[AveyondAnime]

That was great intewiew. Thaks for posting!

[graaar]

oh great THAT'S the one that shows up. The 'nothing's showing up' comment.... stupid internet.

Anyway, I was recommending the homestarrunner wiki for people who want to see more streaming interviews and secret pages.

[graaar]

aaaaah my comment won't post!!!! Who's betting my every try to post it shows up at the same time???

[thisisHOSONAGA]

AAaaAAaaAAaaAAaaAAaaAAaagh

[imsocool213]

They should make homestarrunner into a TV show.

What does it mean to "jump the shark"?

[LittleLottieLorah]

it means that the tv show is at its end. Or not as good as it used to be.

google it

[imsocool213]

thanks.

[Tncl2]

Actually, I believe it more specifically means when a TV show does something major to unsuccessfully retain its audience. That's why he says that it doesn't apply until Homestar and Marzipan have a baby.

[filmmaker24]

"jump the shark" refers to the episode in the show Happy Days when the Fonz jumped a shark on his water skies. Apparently, ratings were low so this stunt was intended to boost viewership.

[darkshad0500]

the bros. chapps have actually turned down several attempts by television stations to make a homestar tv show

[darkghor]

Good job, Matt!

Metroid, Mario, and Zelda on witcha bad self!

[Domatophobic]

They are such a talented bunch! Awesome interview. =]

[SwiftTheFox15]

Funny= 2:57

[haon8]

Such an effing amazing site. I found it many years ago, maybe only a year or two after it was first launch. Man, we had some good times on that site...

Keep going guys!

[alecpfb]

I grew up on this site lol

[rreboso]

I refuse to watch this! Why wuin it? Serweeuswee. I'm sorwee I even swerched this in the fwerst pwace. BUT, GREAT JEEEEERB!!!!!! Love you kids!!!

[EffingAndJeffing]

What's to ruin? Obviously there are voice actors and animators behind the show; it doesn't just spring out of thin air!

To me it's always interesting to hear the views of the people behind phenomena like this.

[amazerayz]

Loved it! Keep it up.

'the system - is down - the system - is down'

[Sprite0Caity0etirpS]

lol thats my ringtone... :P

[LoticaStudios]

"There was this one time, when I plugged in a lawnmower, into my Nintendo...

then after that, I got the hi-score everytime!"

Classic!

[mystorydude]

I can barly hear anything they are saying

[NeverevenStudios]

Try turning the volume up.

[neddx]

Wow! Missy Palmer is gorgeous!

[TheWakaMaster]

OMG! These guys are like my older and more attractive twins!

Animal Crossing...Gamecube...Zelda...­Homestar Runner...

[Frankyproductions]

[Sprite0Caity0etirpS]

[01lazer]

Wow...the voice guy is actually pretty hot!

And talented as hell! *sigh*

[jrockdudek]

I absolutely love his Strongbad voice. It would be hilarious to actually hang out with him.

[thecheatercheater]

Ditto.
