The Critic-Eyes on the Prize pt1

[jarch81]

FOX always cancels good shows that could had made it The Critic and Arrested Development member when Fam Guy was canceled

[931runthisbitch]

i used to love dis freakin show

[monkeybutler20]

check it out..ebert ate siskle

[Mbop28]

This is actually the first time Adam West ever did comedy.

If it wasn't for them, he never would have been on Family Guy or anything

[spaceghostisawesome]

@Mbop28 Nope, The Simpsons was.

[117husky]

the critic was canceled, and yet smallville keeps shooting... -sigh-

[595o]

Woha, this episode was cut badly that even a layman like me notices.

[jaymoe67]

Who could survive Rhinestone, he's not human I tell you.

[DrPrice1968]

Why are the best shows always canceled after 2 seasons?

[InternetManable]

This show was ahead of its time.

[ChacaritaSenior]

1:55 is it the QuarterBack? 

[whatsauce]

Adolph Hitmaker

[Bobaklives]

I never realized that was Phil Hartman playing Hitman.

[boru25]

O fell the same as Jay. Like a failure. It's a tough reality at times. I can't remember the beggining but I remember the rest. Especially Jay's clothes thrown out the window.

[Supernegromagic]

7:55 Wow! He really did beat Homer!!!

[Aymblm]

Did anyone else notice that Tom Brady wrote this?

[Gwitfu90]

@Aymblm It's a different Tom Brady.

[DaniboyBR2]

Good old times =)

I used to watch it back in the 90's with my brother in a channel called Animax, it aired just after Evangelion and a anime called Bubblegum Crisis, a science fiction anime that was very good also.

[eddiemunster23]

prolly my fav cartoon of all time. its so fucking funny

[JayLC2008]

9:52 Fill in the blanks lmao i still love this show!

[MRRJD2]

the ORIGINAL family guy.

praise the critict.

[steve9893]

the voice of tvs troy maclure epic

[Nouw001]

Is it a Clarinet playing? If yes, I'd so play this!

[odylih]

Love this music. I wish I could get Hans Zimmer to compose the soundtrack to MY life. ;-)

[Darkprime29]

yea i remember this show, it came around in the decline of the networks of television, even the new episodes of the classic Simpsons are being written by mindless boobs with dumb childish humor and shotty jokes, wish they would bring back witty comedy shows, like Seinfeld, and The Critic, sure some of them had those Childish jokes but least they had had the undertones of wit. miss those days

[riverdave7]

This is one of the greats cartoons of all time. I usta always change the channel when it came on not giving it a chance, then one day nothing else good was on so i tried it out.... Fell in love.

[Deathsquad49]

4:36 that lady's voice was used alot in this show, as well as helga's mom in hey arnold

[blueskunk12]

Love this show. It was not afraid to say that every movie stinks, stinks, stinks!

[tzoyia1]

such a good show, why was it cancelled?were the ratings that low?

[FrankWestForever]

@tzoyia1 No...the rateing was high but one of the producers ethier died or something :\

[TheKnives777]

this show will always hold a special place in my heart!

[PapagenoJuan2]

I love this show. I always watched it on late night television!! :))) Classic !!! :)))

[afsbjah2]

is this a kids show?

[LucasHorclox]

@afsbjah2 I think its more of an adult cartoon show, since the humor is too sophisticated for younger audiences to be able to enjoy. I used to watch this when I was...5? 6 or 8? along with some TOTALLY SWEET old nickelodeon shows and even though I wasnt able to get the jokes....the show itself was enjoyable for me.

[blazetrigun]

@LucasHorclox

Same here. I may of been a little older than you (probably 9 or 10) but I feel the same exact way.

[Hurricane765]

To this day...that burp remains one of, if not the best cartoon burp EVER

[ukulazy]

Wow. Seth McFarlane didn't rip off The Simpsons. He ripped off The Simpsons and The Critic. I mean... it's not even subtle.

[joeyfuckbutt]

@ukulazy he didn't rip off nothing , family guy is different nigger

[Pookin87]

@joeyfuckbutt wow your an ignorant racist

[joeyfuckbutt]

@Pookin87 oh r u a nigger ? sorry if i offend nigger ! i'm not a racist nigger !

[Pookin87]

@joeyfuckbutt actually im an african american but trailor park trash crackers like yourself wouldnt know how to be intelligent. so why don't you go back to where ever it is you ignorant honkys with little or no education come from. im so sorry you are such a huge disappointment to your parents when they realized they had a low i.q. retarted loser like yourself for a child. i hope your children aren't as stupid as you

[MrJargonScott]

@ukulazy Do you honestly think the Simpson's is relevant or funny anymore? The Simpson's seem to be ripping themselves off from their previous seasons. I mean how many times has Bart fallen in love, or Sideshow Bob come back or have they traveled to a foreign country. Even old staff members who worked on the Simpson's (who coincidentally, are actually working on Family guy now) say the show's current season's are absolutely terrible.

[Casanuda]

I just checked, Adam West isn't even in The Happy Hooker Goes Hollywood! He's clearly just messing with Jay,

Also, Doris totally stepped over the line, hopefully Walter isn't there.

[PirateNaziZombie]

Hi! I'm Adolf Hitmaker! You may remember me from such films as "Microwaves" and "Another Movie 2"

[brwnandfriendly]

ZOMG PHIL HARTMAN

[deathbypowerglove]

People just don't appreciate smart humor anymore

It's easier to laugh at the same chicken fight shit again and again i guess.

Sad we don't have Home Movies or this anymore

In fact, IT STINKS

[FreshAzImIz62]

@deathbypowerglove ahhahaahah!!! agreed!!!

[afroman255]

the australian cartoon character looks like michael bay

[deathbypowerglove]

This show

The Simpsons

Futurama

Home Movies

Are what belong on tv now.

Fuck family guy

[theatergeek82]

I laughed so hard when that photographer took a pic of Jay on his knees naked and Duke standing in front of him

[ArchMadman]

I like how it takes a year to use the liposuction machine and a year later he runs out chasing a ice cream truck with the machine still attached

[pridelander06]

"I did NOT see that coming..."

[onenonlyprincess2]

RIP Doris Grau

[Tjechi]

Adam West!!!! yay

[husnain404]

RIP twin towers

[Carmex776]

Don't listen to him my pet

[carriersummoner]

That doesn't seem like the kind of character Phil Hartman would play. Figured they'd get somebody with a more effeminate voice.

But still, fucking Phil Hartman ftw.

[lawrence142002]

@carriersummoner

Phil Hartman and Jon Lovitz were best friends and they would often collaborate with each other. Lovitz later guest starred on Hartman's show NewsRadio and took his place after his murder.

[gszx1337]

Holy shit, Phil Hartman!

[onenonlyprincess2]

@gszx1337 I miss him very much. Cartoon charters haven't been the same since he died

[thinedoor2]

"He doesn't act anymore. He's on....

CRUISE CONTROL!

AH, HA HA HA HA HA"

[stevean2]

I JUST MADE THAT UP!

[Directo13]

Phil Hartman!!!

WE missed you so!!!

[sagacious03]

I'm just watching an episode of this show, that is, The Critic, for the first time in my life.

....THIS IS EFFING HILARIOUS!!

[untitled101]

@sagacious03 you have some great TV moments in store from you my sagalicious little friend

[999Rabbits]

07:50 is my favorite part watch that over and over for a while lol

[symbolofdeth]

HACHI-MACHI

[hookyboysb]

Does Adam West act as himself in every cartoon he's in?

[MattBL]

@hookyboysb There's FAMILY GUY, FAIRLY ODDPARENTS, KM POSSIBLE.

BTW, John Lovits is awersome!

[tkwtube01]

And The Simpsons. He played himself in The Simpsons.

[Nathanamerican27]

@hookyboysb

Pretty Much. He has nothing better to do.

[Hotshotter3000]

@hookyboysb Yes, that's basically what he's famous for... Adam Westing! :p

[bbungled]

@hookyboysb He does!

[LadyOfDaGame]

@hookyboysb i kno rite

[wingweaver84]

@hookyboysb Pretty much,although usually he acts like a lunatic who left the Bathood on a little too tight.

[angelbabeof69]

I almost died laughing at the bit with Cher and the Tom Cruise joke

[CartoonNothing]

I will make this bottle dissappear. *chugs wine*

[maveholic]

such a great show... now we have a full hour and a half worth of Seth McFarlane crap on Fox

[Vondur]

I agree with this, with the exception of American Dad. I thought it was brilliant in seasons 1 -3, now it's just another garbage Seth Mcfarlane show. It's a shame, Family Guy was actually great the FIRST time it was on the air in 99' or so.

[OonaCanute]

@Vondur

I actually really like American Dad now...but I agree that Family Guy has become complete crap compared to what it used to be.

[tonywallacess45]

@OonaCanute Family Guy may have jumped but I think Seth McFarlane is trying to force cancellation so he can leave Fox. The shows seem to be deliberately bad.

[onenonlyprincess2]

@maveholic I wish American Dad was canceled, same with The Clevelnad show, Family Guy on the other hand, keep on a little while longer

[Verd1m5]

@maveholic yea but the simpson clearly lost its touch in '03. So i say we called it even......like LITERALLY!

[maveholic]

@Verd1m5 family guy only had 1 great season in the 1st one... hardly calling it "even"

[squall600]

@maveholic seth mcfarlane has nothing on this show...i really wish they can bring this show back, they even have 9 scripted episodes they were gonna use for the 3rd season so hopefully there is hope. adult swim really needs to show this show, if family guy was brought back by adult swim, so can the critic.

[Dudex58]

@maveholic I know his crappy fart jokes, and anti religion. Nothin wrong with being an atheist or Christian, but man leave fiction in fiction. Their was a rule my dad always told me never speak about politics or religion. Apparently he also thinks pedophilia is funny. As well as making fun of of young females, even though Meg looks alot like her mother. This show was ahead of its time a single dad and depressed. Its real life. Kinda like 2 and a half men.

[FlammableKing]

@maveholic That's our world today, my friend...

[drewsky684]

adam west is the shiznit

[ColonelDBoy]

"your 43 years old!?" XD epic win

[SeoulMan]

Am I the only one who misses Doris Grau AND Phil Hartman?

[Blargadarg]

Not at all. The Simpsons in my opinion was so many times better with them in it.

[GOPJ00]

I MISS THEM TOO!

[MrAlcazar]

RIP Phil Hartman.

[JFMello1116]

"There was a day when this room would've been a third full!"

[DeadSilence2009]

lol pee wee sherman!

[redman8903]

Adam West win.

[enkopingsbo]

"i just got here" LOL

[EliaForce1984ita]

07:51 - 07:59 is epic win LOL

[IsoscelesKramer]

That Adolph Hitmaker does good work. lol!

[treyblowski]

yeah but I was expecting him to look more like hitler

[MissAlainey1991]

i love adam west...he'll guest star himself in ANYTHING:D

[LufsyLurqy]

Adolf Hitmaker is Troy McClure

[GeriatricFan1963]

"You can't take my dignity!"

(Throws clothes out window)

"Go fetch boy..."

[LadyVanDaele]

Check it out! Ebert ate Siskel!

[AnedreTehGinate]

5:30-5:54 lmao

[1aundulxaldin]

What the hell am I going to say to Adam West?

[mustang071]

cany anyone help me where jay sherman reviews a parody of free willy or something? I remember seeing it and the whale fals on the kid when it jumps over the rock barrier or so mething..had me laughing soo hard please anyone tell me the episode

[theoku]

I think that was on Simpsons. Homer was watching the 'Directors Cut" of Free Willey. It was the one where Bart skips school and witnesses the waiter not being beat up by Freddy Quimby

[ForbiddenDouchebag]

That's from "The Boy Who Knew Too Much". It took me a while to remember the title since there's about hundreds of Simpsons episodes.

[losangeles1ca]

7:05 Hi i'm Troy McClure...

[losangeles1ca]

Wooohooo, Cher!!

[TheCLB]

Who knew Tom Brady was so talented?

[YellowTexasRose90]

" I feel cold , I hate vinyl " - LOL

[prfctcellrulz]

Cher has a MAJOR potty mouth!

[cuntcow6]

4:15 4:31 "I just made that up"

[StefanoFan27]

LOL. OMG.

[StanKingston420]

HAHA That Banner Said PEE WEE HERMAN!!!

[nintendofreak117]

hey thats the same flash back sound in the simpsons

[cuntcow6]

Adolf Hitmaker looks like Michael McDonald

[rizzorizzodude]

great memories.

[orbison]

So, I'm guessing Phil Hartman and Jon Lovitz were very close friends.

[ingwersengrady]

OH MAN, Phil was always awesome at his voice acting gigs on the Simpsons, but this was a horrible miscast! The character doesn't fit the voice at all...

[KotoRyu]

well, everyone is entitled to an opinion, but my opinion is that you have no right to your opinion

[Mizz2sexy4u]

I feel so sorry for Sean Connery, 1:02- 1:06, he goes from young to old in seconds...lmao!

[Dadge42]

RIP Jon Lovitz, you were the best...

[Smurfster1]

Uh, what?

[FartyFilms]

he's alive . . .

[EVHisgodyoumuppet]

WHAT!? When did that happen?

[lefas123456789]

wtf a racist catoon in my hometown in philippines.that gay must be pwnm in the end

[leela145]

Wait was that Phil Hartmen as Adolph Hitmaker?

[NGS712]

leela: Yes, I think it is. :)

[Angelrust]

oh yeah that was phil, hartman forever

[dim432]

even cher would've beleve if she dosent swore a lot

[UndeadHavoc1]

wow...I actully think I kind of like this series...hmm...scary.

[Jraw72]

"Jay, you got a very valid point. But on the other hand, SHUT UP!" LOL!

[dim432]

sir yes sir

[IAMTHECAPSGODLOL]

HOTCHI MOTSHIE

[SpySappinMahUsername]

"ADAM WEST?!? What the hell am I gonna say to Adam- Well...!"

[Pixiebabe]

I love this show but why was it taken off the air?

[CantHoldDownLeeFan13]

00:24 "Hello?"

[PJman586]

lol Adam West

[hell5309]

Congratulations, Pee Wee Herman! I mean, Jay Sherman!.....Oh fuck.

[hunarf]

that adolph hitmaker does good work.

[naynay3y455]

i used to watch this show as a kid.

[InfamousShad]

Ah, The Critic...good cartoon!

[xenariz]

isn't that character in the simpsons as well? as critic

[PJman586]

It was a cameo episode. He was in the show twice. The shows have some of the same producers

[passionsfanNBC]

Lol I always felt sorry for Jay, he's kind of

a geek and a loser so people overlook that hes

cool because of intellect, dry humor and it's

not always easy to be an outsider because of b

eing outspoken when it comes to your principl-

es.

[PagRikyProd]

#71519!!!

[MrYudesWineGums]

can u get dis programme on sky and if so what channel

[passionsfanNBC]

it's on Reelz channel 299 if you have DISH. Us

ually on weeknights around 9 pm.

[bmt277]

ICE CREAM MAN!!!XD

[Mizz2sexy4u]

ONe of the best cartoons ever!!!!!!!!! John Lovitz rules!!!!!!

[VideoNoob22]

What the hell am I gonna say to Adam Wesweeeeellll.

[Yaya0Hikari0forever]

yeah naked guy in the room!!!! we want more of that! hahahahahah XD

[merrick00987]

5 stars- "Adolfe Hitmaker" Classic stuff. I'm glad I discovered this show. Thanks for the upload.

[FijiUnited]

I haven't seen a wave this big since Delta Burke did a belly flop into Shelly Winters' jacuzzi.

[cartoonlover2326]

The look on Jay's face when he interviews Cher

[incarnateTheGreat]

The belch! LOL!!!!!!!!!!!

[BananaHurricane]

John Lovitz, Phil Hartman, Adam West... what more could you want?!

[passionsfanNBC]

ITA TV sucks. Duckman, Futurama, South Park

and the Critic are the best. Also miss the

stuff like Pinky and the Brain, Rocko's Mod-

ern Life, Animaniacs, Ren and Stimpy, Angry

Beavers and Tiny Toons where they could get

by with the occassional joke geared towards

adults that went right over kids heads. Now

KIDS can't even stand half the crap they're

stuck watching when seven year olds call sh-

ows gay that's when you know its bad.

[kevfan01]

Whats with all the hate for 'King of the Hill'?? I LOVE that show! Dale, Boomhauer and Bill...great stuff...and Hanks 'Bwaaaah!!' exclamation when terrified? C'mon...thats cood stuff...plus it actually had some well written heartfelt moments as well...lighten up, people...

[KlayMan2007]

00:00 to 00:34 - Filler # 71519.

[TJMarbun]

miss this show

[passionsfanNBC]

yeah shows like this were hilarious AND actual

ly had intellectual value. The one where Jay

was teaching a class and said be an independen

t thinker made a good point sometimes being sm

art doesn't always mean popularity goes with e

very opinion you have and sometimes you gotta

learn to think to yourself people need to step

off and do it anyhow.

[onenonlyprincess2]

I wish this was still on the air

PS: KING OF THE HILL is getting Cancelled, yea!

[Morrin7]

God, what a show.. I also watched when I was like 8... Duckman was brilliant, too.

[TheLizzard0]

"You're not just some quack are you?"

"A quack?! Could a quack have escaped from a mental hospital in the Phillpines? I don't think so!"

[TheLizzard0]

Shows like Duckman, Futurama, The Critic, The Simpsons, and all the stuff like that exept Family Guy are too good for TV. TV sucks. Especilly FOX. And ABC. That got rid of The Critic.

[joeythewing]

*riiiiiing*

...Hello?

[boomkitten]

this show was wayy ahead of its time. just like Duckman.

[crazydude235]

I have a question: why do great shows like the Critic get canned after only two seasons, whereas utter pieces of shit like FG are still going strong? Now that's bullshit.

Well it's like asking about How many licks does it take to get to the Tootsie Roll center of a Tootsie Pop. the world may never know....By the way while you're up there, can you ge
