Rainbow Brite - Star Sprinkled Part 1

[TigrisWildflower]

what the hell is with the top rated comment?!! why would people think that, that looked up this show on youtube?!!

[livelifeloud1100]

I remember watching this when I was a young kid .. it seemed a whole lot cooler then. lol

[MegaSailormoon4ever]

THIS IS SO EPIC

[blanchefful]

Yeah Twink never does any work just bosses the others and complains that they don' t do any work then he gets to go with Rainbow on her missions and do nothing but go along for the ride--that's a vacation! While she works--oh sometimes he tells her she's being too fussy but that is still a holiday! Starlite was a pain in the bazoo in A Horse of a Different Color. Pissed me off the way he treated Sunriser. I still love RB!

[MrGluey666]

They portray self confidence

[DJBrokenHigh]

rainbows are for fucking fags

[lucy9195emma]

WTF

[angieskidney]

What happened between 4:03 and 4:04? Was there a commercial and you forgot to unpause when this was recorded?? O_o

[meowcl]

adored <3

[tweethang1]

Damn im fucking OLD!! I watched Rainbow Brite when I was 4 years old. Now im 27. OHHH 80's come back!!

[stephertron]

When I was 5, my mom wouldn't let me name my cat Starlight. I always thought it was because it was too girly for a male cat, but I realize now it's because Starlight is FUCKING ANNOYING.

[nataliedf1]

i love this

[aleashasharman]

aha im 14 and this show never gets old xD i havnt watch it since i was like 4 maybe lol but my little couzin loves it he says he wants t marry rainbow brite and go to rainbow land insearch of santa clause xxD :)

[Jennyy51495]

I had a rainbow Brite doll when i was 3 which I took with my everywhere I went

[221Ey]

i used to love this when i was 3 and 4

[returnoftheramble]

It's obvious that she thinks she's a destined Kalki. She's distorted the story for her benefit then added a bunch of color in and perky dialogue to offset her spoiled nature. She could get off that horse and help the little people instead of prancing around like she's actually doing something and making them serve her so in her light. The bad guy never professes to be bad in real life, so she's using the ole' evil argument to justify her selfish cause as well. She's good next to bad.

[kelseyfittzy]

@returnoftheramble That's an interesting argument, but the thing about the show is that the universe needs colors. Rainbow Brite just happens to be spreading the color everywhere, and the sprites actually enjoy what they're doing. If anything, Twink and Starlight are the real jerks here. Twink just bosses everyone and Starlight is very arrogant. What am I doing? I should be enjoying the show! Not get too technical!! :)

[unclefestus]

So why is it the colored people in this cartoon do all the slave work in the mines? They aught to call this cartoon "Rainbow White"

[1flutedude]

@unclefestus eeew lol

[yaoifangirl32]

this brings back good memories!

[BirdGirlPrincess]

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!! i rember this episode more than any other one!!!!

[chica476]

it's interesting to note that some fetish and alternative lifestyle shops offer costumes in the tune of Rainbow Brite.

[willowbel]

ohhh! Bring back the 80's!!

[Adraline]

Starlight, or whatever the horse's name is, is SO egotistical in ALL episodes. "There is no horse greater looking, faster, charming..." geez. I never noticed that when I was a kid.

[jaredoaks]

I love this because it makes me feel 6 again!

[hockeygirl4499]

this was my favorite!!!!

[BirdGirlPrincess]

@hockeygirl4499 me too!!!! when i was little, i really wanted to put cookie cutters on my feet and jump, like them!!

[1M9Y8D6A]

i dont remeber what  this was about i just remebered the song and all the fun colors : D

[bertfreez]

after the 90s cartoons fell off

[thepliskin5005]

wow they sure maid some great kids shows in the eightys

[MariAnKenobi]

So, star sprinkles are really ruby cookies???

[cindermurk]

where can i find these star springles? i want what theyre on lol....

only in rainbow land aye

[bonofan100]

I think there on one to many star sprinkles lol

[Monkeyzforever]

=0 When Murky says, "You Fog horn breath" it sounded like he swore!

Now that would just break-down the Rainbow Brite time-space continum

[cindermurk]

i heard the same thing lol,

[amy1584]

I LOVE THIS SHOW!! I always wanted to be like Rainbow Brite!

[ba8ygir1]

there's always a hater and his or her lacky in the group lol

[ba8ygir1]

Modesty just isnt in that talking nags vocabulary is it ROTFLMBO

[SmithyMitherList]

amazing.

this is what i was looking for!

[akimikan123]

lol murky talks like my mother

[Krinisty]

HAHAHA!!!

[Terestrasz]

I used to watch this when I was like 3.

Now I'm 20 and I can't stop laughing at the cheesiness. I can smell it.

[AL3XsGuRL]

HAHA god I havent seen this is FOREVER

these were the good days

when cartoons wre just cartoons

and not educational testing bullsh!t

[katiemcvay]

Rainbowland has the most useless exports everrr.

[Natetheredrex]

I'm getting really tired of Starlite's cocky attitude!

[carebearnmbr46]

It is so cute how they make the rainbow sprinkles!

[mjalovesanimalia]

please shut up with your socialism crap. Im pretty sure Mystic put this up so people could enjoy a film they watched as a child and not so there could be a debate concerning socialism.

[brokenheartpro]

omg i remember this! i was like 3 i loved it and my sister would yell at me if i got it at blockbuster XD

[GaaraHug]

Hahaha, Same here, we all had to choose a movie to watch as a family and when ever it was my turn I chose this one, every one had to watch it with me as I said all of the lines.lol.

[johnnyLOVEdepp]

OMG!! thanks sooooo much for putting this up:] it was my favorite episode!<3

[405sOwn]

Ok I dont care about all this crap everyone is talking about

But I use to be the biggest Rainbow Brite fan EVERRR

I love this cartoon so much

I just happened to search it on Youtube

And OMG it was there

Im soooo happy

It brings me back to my childhood ;']

[CatlynGrey]

whats the name of the bad guy in this?

i just know the german name .-.

this grey guy...with the...ridiculous helmet ._.

[Pookaliscious]

Murky Dismal

[BadHairsRevenge1981]

People, it's just a cartoon. When I was a kid all I paid attention to was the awesome rainbow her horse got to ride on and that she was freakishly and ridiculously amazing, the fight against that bad guys, not to mention her clothes were super! All this socialism talk makes me tired. If you want a soliloquy on socialism just listen to Barack speak. He's got a plan for you! A real change to socialism! Leave Miss Rainbow Brite out of it!

[IamayMizono]

HAZA!!!!!!! i agree compeletly!

[malkins510101]

woah mastmedia! way to suck the innocence out of a classic saturday morning cartoon! your life must really be gray and depressing.

the world is full of controversy in every turn and the only way to escape it is to live off the grid... so i suggest you pack up your deer hide and make a move... and take your cynical point-of-view with you.

good day.

[mastmedia]

You can like something and still use your brain.

That doesn't mean I have to be ignorant out everything you see or enjoy. Nor do I have to be oblivious about the hidden messages of imperialism in western cartoons. They've always been there.

Bugs Bunny was just a cartoon, but if you look at old cartoons Bugs was quite a bigot before he teamed up with Michael Jordan in Space Jam (which was a cute movie for kids).

[pinkflower7783]

I think you need to get out more I think Youtube is making you brain dead!

[mastmedia]

It's kind of ironic. The sprites are kinda like Rainbow Brite's underpaid slaves and so were then Asian animators who worked on this cartoon.

I love Rainbow Brite but this cartoon subconciously desincitizes young kids to work exploitation and makes it acceptable. That's older Americans become submissive to their companies when they become old enough to work.

It's kind of sad that entertaiment is used this way (without children or parents realizing it).

[butheadVSbevus]

Come on twink just shut up no one cares about your bullshit rainbow brite propaganda.

[mastmedia]

butheadVSbevus, the truth is just the truth. You can deny it, but most Americans pretend to brave, believe in a social order and most can even stand up to their boss. The boss is always the good guy because he makes the money.

But at least, one good thing is that Rainbow Brite wasn't a victim and showed a capable girl who didn't need a man to help solve her problems. Even if, techincally, she was a benevolent overseer.

[pinkflower7783]

Your an idiot it's a fucking cartoon.

[mastmedia]

Your an idiot. Facts are facts and that's all I'm saying. The whole purpose of network kids tv in the 80's were to sell toys and generate sponsorship dollars. In the 70's they saw great potential for sales in the children's market and commissoned these cartoons.

Even in the 20's, the government commissioned artist and cartoonist to campaign against jazz music because it was the devils music. I love Rainbow Brite and the 80's, but most of these shows had bias symbolisms of the Regan Era.

[chicodepuertorico]

Aw Geez guys who gives a shit, just enjoy this illegal presentation of this awesome cartoon!!!

[HotChickBV]

Not to mention, but has anyone besides me ever noticed that all of the "colored" star sprites are forced to work in the color caves while the "white" star sprite barks orders at them while never picking up a tool or pick himself?

[mastmedia]

It's based upon the western view of entitledment like the Medieval fuedal systems where the serfs worked the land and all their efforts and were given to the noblemen and the royal family in the castle.

It was actually a template for the social system of American were corporations underpay workers and and executives enjoy the fruits of their labor. A modern version of polite servitude.

[Irishqueen88]

I'm proboably going feel stupid after I say this but I think there might be some subtle hints at socalism too. Look at the way all the sprites have the same dwelling and even the color kids have the same kind of room. Except for Rainbow, everyone is equal and equaly working twords the same goal (to make rainbow sprinkles). I don't know, maybe I'm just thinking too hard cuase I ahve a cultural anthropolgy exam in 2 hours.

[mastmedia]

As an artist, all art is a form of subconscious expression. It's generally a reflection of a time or the environment.

Aside from GI Joe, Silverhawks and He-Man, Rainbow Brite was a show that heavily inspired me as a child. I really did find it facinating. You can really see the influence of ancient mythology and the post punk era.

But like the corporate environment of that time, the working man was expendable. Notice the sprites have no personalities.

Fraggle Rock did the same.

[rumpuskat]

I don't know, I think Rainbow Brite is clearly an imperialist. In the "origin" episode she comes to Rainbowland, overthrows the government, and colonizes the planet, enslaving the little furry creatures to do her bidding.

Twink has sold out his fellow workers, and he gets to assist Rainbow Brite because he alone speaks the language of the ruling class.

: )

[angelalexis]

hahahahah i tottaly saw that to man

[girlwithaname]

Lmao... I never thought about that. xD

[rrrozkminatorrr]

muahaha and she has no forehead

[ma7799]

@rumpuskat

Maybe so, but she is a good imperialist.

[agnivaruna]

@rumpuskat Hahahaha your comment made my day!!! hahahahaha

[1flutedude]

@rumpuskat lmFaOF

[mastmedia]

I'm sorry to say, because I know the truth is offensive to most, but Rainbow Brite, the thirteen episode series (not the specials or the movie) were animated by some of the least skilled and cheaper South Asian studios. Might Monstromurk Menace was US animated but looked absolutely horrendous.

We really should humble ourselves and give more credit to the countries that actually help flesh our ideas and, in most cases, to all the work. American pride is one thing. Hubris is another.

[mastmedia]

Even Disney television shows (like DuckTales)were animated by it's Thailand division. The second season was actually US animated and that's why the quality was so crappy. Disney saved its good animators for its feature films. Outsourcing of animation was custom in the 80's because there was more integrity in the work. I actually think collaborative efforts yeild better results anyway. American companies simply used corporate money to "buy" talent and the result was the 1980's thirty minute ads.

[FattyCat306]

the horse is so obnoxious...he thinks he's the shit, i love it!

[blockolga]

I love rainbow bright..

used to watch this for many hours as a kid..

[redtreez]

this show always makes me cry.

[NaomiJuddFanatic]

i love twink!! i want my very own cute little twink

[imbritish]

Using magic powers to turn birds into a different colour is clearly racist.

[amdetata]

I love this cartoon. I miss all the cartoons from the 80s. The 80s ruled!

[duffywoody]

ahh sprites run away Stranger Danger

[MusiCandConversE]

I LOVE YOU STARLITE!!!!

[Shotakon]

Sprites = slaves.

[drelephun]

i love rainbow bight so much that i found a twink doll

[morefactlessfiction7]

I love that episode!

[princesaaurora3]

Hello!! Do you have the episode number 12 of Rainbow Brite? The name is "A Horse of a different color", I also need the episode 5 "The Mighty Monstomurk menace Part 2". Thank You for your videos!!!!

[TheLostLenore]

Rainbow Brite is NOT an anime, it is an animation that was owned and creaed by Hallmark, you know, the ones who make the greeting cards. And given that Hallmark is an American owned company, Rinbow Brite is 100% USA Made and not anime either, it was one out of a few shows that Hallmark made back in the day.

[mastmedia]

Sorry, TheLostLenor. Like most cartoons in the 80's, very few were 100% American. Hallmark contracted Jean Chalopin (a french producer and writer) to come up with the concept. Look at the credits. Chalopin came up with many other concepts like Popples, and Wheeled warriors. Americans did the character design and he did the story and most of the animation (like most American cartoons of that era) was done in Southeast Asia because it was cheaper (to outsource) and you got better quality.

[lissy1211]

WE GET IT.

[karinablack]

Was she also the voice of Megan from MLP and the current voice of Dora??

[harrisonchick]

She was the voice of Megan from MLP, but not the current voice of Dora her name is Bettina Bush.

[guitardedperson]

so that's how u make star sprinkles.... 0_o

[Jedigirl1983]

Who knew that star sprinkles were like Shrinky-Dinks

[ClarinetsKickBrass]

I love how the guy can understand the Sprites, even though they don't even speak words. He's a creep too.

[amydee53]

Oh my GOSH. Now I know where all my weird, lucid, psycho dreams come from. Holy Moley. Post traumatic Raindow Brite syndrome. Creepers. I didn't realize it was Anime.

[georgiadarcy07]

I LOVED this cartoon when I was a kid...can't beleive i found it on you tube...makes me feel pretty old watching it...it's a pity that there aren't cartoons around like this anymore..they're so cool and fun to watch! :)

[hedwigamarie]

Rainbow castle is a sweatshop for sprites! The sprites need a good worker's union.  J/K! I loved this show when I was a kid. And Starlite was what made the show great.

[bluemoongirl2007]

I don't like con men :(

[TwinkTheSprite]

YEAH!

[makemedance1234]

this crazy I can't believe they have this on youtube. I haven't seen this for ever long...yeah i feel so old.

[FriskeyBandit]

lol im 17 and i used to watch this when i was little ^_^

[melce1989]

Star sprinkles always made me hungry for sugar cookies...

[HumoredSanity]

LoL, switch up that 'We need color crystals to make star sprinkles' Into 'We need cotton to make clothing' and you might see the darker side to this show xD LOL ahh 80's cartoons how I miss thee

[angel22uk]

i use to watch this as a child so great he he

[Renthead966]

aw, i used to LOVE this show!!!!!

[willcamick]

HEY the girls a guys on this cartoon look like "EMO KIDS" *SHRUG* I LOVE IT YAAAY ^_^

[lipglossqueen9]

no, they look like ravers.

[demandred753]

What if those birds didn't want to be colored? What if their survival depends on their drab appearance?! Wouldn't it be hard to camoflage against predators, wearing BRITE RED feathers? Thanks, RB, for the extinction of a species.

Just kidding folks, I loved this show.

[looker768]

Quality animation thanks to the hands of underpaid but hard working Asian animators. They make the best cartoons.

[drharleenquinzel]

oh god rainbow brite is possibly the best kids show

[taragrant582]

i love murky dismal. where are the clips from rainbow brite and the star stealer? i watched that movie everyday for months when i was five.

[mysticfyreangel8]

another person on youtube uploaded the movie, so i did not, feel free to look in my saved favorites on my profile to find them, i believe i saved them on there

[mysticfyreangel8]

my bad the account closed.... D: when i have more time i will begin to break down the movie and upload it when i can. thats if i still have the movie saved.

[xbitBitz]

[kandiexxkid]

MEMORIES <33

ilu rainbow brite

[adoptedbyapopmachine]

Another thing I was raised on!my god

[Moyetito]

Qué horror se parece a Chucky la escuincla esa!

[Sylongra]

I used to love this show so much. ^^ I think I may still have the horse plushie stashed away somewhere. :)

[DigiSim]

Twink's not all that bright, is he.

[LadyDecember]

He's definitely a few clowns short of a circus, lol

[unclefestus]

Yeah, we got Rainbow White making the colored people being slaves in the mines, while the white people are doing nothing at all. Looks like a racist cartoon to me. Nah, That was just a joke. I'm a white guy. Actually I secretly had a crush on her when I was a kid and never got over it.

[BadMediCynInc22]

that, just might be, the greatest YOUTUBE comment ever, me and my best friend almost DIED laughing at that. I have a weirder crush...You know the Wrestler the UnderTaker....yep, that might be weirder than the rainbow brite...well, at least i have a chance lmao jk :]

[lipglossqueen9]

that's so not weirder than rainbow brite lol

[amiomaru]

i used to love this show... but will they ever run out of

those crystals in the mines... every time it's the same amount

[mysticfyreangel8]

thats because they're magical.. :P

[mysticfyreangel8]

*hands over a box of tissues*

well then kick back and enjoy!

[leixinyi77]

Same here.. used to hurry home to catch this in the local channel.. thanks for sharing this...from your new sunscriber.. anyeong..

[JDavis1982]

I bet if the goverment had such a hard time with spongebob they would have lost their Sh*t over Starlight. He's the gayest creature in cartoon history. Second to that Pink Panther from Hanna Barbara

[Kittylover9393]

hey I love Spongebob! I'm one of that shows biggest fans!

[JDavis1982]

Everyone loves spongebob. It's just that big thing about the cartoon promoting tolerance of homosexuality or something. Heavens forbid impressionable children should learn tolerance in spite of one anothers differences...what is this world coming to?

[Kittylover9393]

Oh yes, now I see what your talking about. How they are saying he is gay and loves Patrick and everything. :( But they are half right there, the show does have it's dirty thoughts that only adults and teenagers can figure out....

[mysticfyreangel8]

don't many children shows have something similar to this situation anyways? like some children's shows i have watched in the past seem so ackward now because we can understand and comprehend it a whole lot better. :P

[fullmetallover]

wow sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooo cute

[KristinForte]

ooooowwww i used to love the horse! i miss this show so much i'm gonna cry!
