this is not doug idiot

@Drycandy It's an early version of Doug. And you're the idiot -- even the fucking dog is pretty much the same. Before the show debuted on Nick, it's creator licensed Doug's usage for USA commercials and Florida Grapefruit juice ads.

I totally remember this commercial! Awesome flashback!

Did Jim Jinkins really animate all these early Doug commercials from the late 80s/early 90s?

[RetroToledo]

@vnisanianisback I think someone was asked that question and it sounded like he didn't necessarily animated these but he designed them none the less.

How the heck did you find this?

He was also seen in a few Florida grapefruit juice spots from the late 80s/early 90s...in fact, I just added one of them to my channel. :-)

@jonnyveliky LOL I found a video on [adult swim]'s video site from Doug's "cameo" on RC. I thought they were going to rape my childhood, but it was actually funny.

A new version of Doug would be great, even as a 1 time thing for the 20th anniversary of the original 3 nicktoons. Maybe a live action movie like fairly oddparents but not as bad?

What the hell was that at the end?

@Joemamma69000 A promo for USA's Cartoon Express. It's on my Youtube channel as well.

@jonnyveliky A Comedy Central adult version of Doug?! With all of the flashbacks, memories, 90's references, throw in a few double entendres and swears and you've got a Bluffington version of Family Guy!!! I'd watch that.

[Kitsuneranger]

@spindalis79 actually, that would kill the charm of the show

[Tornado1994]

@jonnyveliky Nickeledeon actaully cancelled Doug in 1993. Not '94. Disney purchased the rights to the show in 1995.

I remember that! I totally forgot all about that little bumper.

[joshtemplet]

If they did that & the show took place now, he would be 29 or 30 (30 or 31 in August).

[cerberus144]

I remember that promo! I never knew that guy was Doug! I never made the connection in my head!

[megamanxtc]

good find!

Thanks for posting that USA promo on YouTube! Brings back memories. :)
