  • when a girl walks in with a itty-bitty waist and a round thang in yo face

    "Yes, I'm sprung!"

  • i like how the show drops subtle hints about how it really is like richie being gay at the end

  • Lessons of episode 8: Kids don't be racist don't judge how people look judge how people act and if there good people to be around! 0:54 - 1:05

  • "OOOOOO CHEESE DOODLES" good gosh i love Shiv

  • 3:33 RAPE!

  • I sense rape rape in the beginning of this video!

  • wow they sucked ass when fighting the two dads

  • No offense Mr. Hawkins, but you lectured Richie's dad on not knowing his son but you didn't recognize your own son while talking to him because he was wearing a goofy mask.

  • 3:31 If I was richie I'd be screaming "PERVERT!!!"

  • lmaooo. Ice T

  • @shadowdemons117 That's part just pisses me off!!!! His own son is two feet away from him and he doesn't even recognize him.

  • if all men were even half the man Mr Hawkins is...

  • I like this about DC. They tell it like it is.

  • lol

    Hawkins: do your folks know where you are young man?

    OHH THE IRONY xD

  • Does Mr. Hawkins remind ANYONE else of Luther Vandross or is that just me?

  • Mr. Hawkins is a verbal badass. But I wonder how Richie's dad will react when he hear what the creators have to say about his son's sexuality.

    Also, Ebon should watch it with the "bad-touches"

  • It's a shame they don't make shows as good as this anymore. An enjoyable show that can instill quality life lessons.... Yet nowadays society can't imply racism in kid's TV shows, or talk about God. So sad.... I kinda miss my childhood.

  • Face to face with his son, and can't see beyond a small white mask x_x. C'mooooooon. The hair, the voice, the same body type, and even the color of his eyes. C'moooooooooooooooooooooooon..­.

  • @Riddley0848 It was stated that he always knew but choose to ignore it out of fear of knowing his son was always in danger and out of respect for his son in waiting until he was ready to tell him the truth

  • @Riddley0848 *ahem* Clark Kent. *ahem* Prince Adam of Eternia *cough* Peter Parker...

  • @MrRedgrin atleast Peter Parker/Spiderman is wearing a mask that covers his whole face not a teenie one that just covers around the eyes like static

  • @thejurassicman Point, but as my rebuttal: "Parker. how'd you get these pictures of Spider-Man from so many different angles? Including ones that you'd almost have to climb a wall to get? In fact, every assignment I send you to, Spider-Man shows up..."

  • @Riddley0848 Hey, Clark Kent looks exactly like Superman!

  • says the guy who just got hit by a plank

  • I don't think Richie dad voted for Obama

  • Man, I wish my dad was like Mr. Hawkins.

  • kinda sad how the whole episode was about how racism is bad, and at the end they make a gay joke.

  • @zebry13 How is it a gay joke? There are guys that dresses like females at Comic-cons, but aren't gay... just a fan boy of the character ..LOL.

  • @zebry13 ik but them sayng that the dad would be surprised by the guys wearing make-up implies that he doesnt like gay people.

  • @zebry13 I think you over analyzed that a bit too far. Wasn't implying that at all.

  • @DayLaMike ik probably but it just seemed like that to me

  • in the cartoon world you can wear mask and even your own father won't recognize you

  • "Do your folks know where you are?"

    "..."

  • I would have avoided being captured by starting an annoying argument.. "Running buddy? Does that even make SENSE to you?"

  • This is the type of episode. That makes me cry tears of joy (and I'm only 11)

  • LLOOOLLL COMICON! XD

  • @sonicXrules123 when he said "even the guys.." i thought the father was gonna freak out because he hates gays too. lol

  • Comment removed

  • @Shigofumi7163 - yup episode 51

  • does his dad ever find out??

  • How can a father not recognize his own son's voice? Or hair for that matter?

  • Funny how Virgils dad can't tell it's his own son.

  • In one of the last ( if not the last ?) episode Mr. Hawkins reveals that he knew it was him all along.

  • I don't see how his dad doesn't recognize him.

  • lol... "I'm Sprung" at 6:45

  • "I've seen your kind all my life. The fine outstanding bigot. His nose so close to the grindstone even he can't see anything else. Meanwhile the world changes and grows, and he's blind to it! Ignorant! And proud of that too! And you know the worst part? You've got a terrific son. One of the best and brightest around. And because of the way you are, you'll never really know him".

  • @luxord2654 that's some deep stuff he said right there. if only everyone else thought like that.

  • i love episode like these, when the father addmits he was wrong.

  • "Do your folks know where you are?"

    Best line in this episode. XD

  • I wanted to hang out with my dad. but the fact he beat my mom all the time made me hate him.....

  • @videogamester07 He had to work with a black guy, and the whole thing caused him to realize that his racism and refusal to grow was what caused the mess in the first place. I liked the bit where he weakly tries to say he wasn't trying to attack virgil but then hawkins sr points out that given the blanket attitude he might as well have been

  • Awesome examples provided by this cartoon and CHEESE DOODLES :D

  • Mr. Hawkins is an awesome role model. Smart, caring and wise. He is the kind of Dad you wish you could hang out with every day.

  • You'd think Mr. H would recognize his sons voice lol

  • Oh wait, "Comic Con", never mind. Still my favorite cartoon, though!

  • Oh wait, "Comic Con", never mind. Still my favorite cartoon, though!

  • Are...are they going to a drag show??? If so, then this is officially my favorite cartoon EVER!!!

  • Da funny. Mr. Hawkins is a dad even to a bang baby superhero (static) Gosh lol. He just cya stop being awesome.

  • I rel like how static does mek he entrance! Even d theme music rel bad. Go Static!!! :D

  • Everybody is going on and on about how this show is such a great show and it teaches ppl good values and stuff yet the same ppl who are putting up these comments cussin away like cuss words are part of the good values. Aren't Y'ALL bein taught nething??

  • Ya know...every time Ebon does that shadow thing where he kidnaps people, I'm pretty sure all he wants is a hug.

  • I know, why do people have to see the world as black and white, why can't they see things the same instead of what's different

  • i think ebon may have both ears peirced it seems to switch every so many episodes

  • i wish the real world was the same as in comics.....look how fast a racist bastard suddenly change to a good guy

  • @gi50dude some times when their are two sides to a coin people forget that theirs a edge.

  • @JHK936 well said man but also... very cheesy

  • People, like Mr. Foley, just have way too much hate in them to see things any other way. That strong hatred blinds people to what the world can really like in the sharpest of reality. It prevents them from seeing people for who they really are deep behind their physical complexion. Whether we are white, tan, or black or brown, we are all human in every way!!

  • He didn't think to force Richie to tell him Static's identity? lol nice villain

  • I wonder how he would react if Richie came out.

  • The ending kinda makes me happy

  • static shock is well known for its music on the show in this episode i like the song starting at 0:20

  • personaly, that ending for richie's dad is not enough for me. i still hate him.

  • hey at 0:59 there are kids that almost looks like virgil and richie.

  • @UltimateWinxFan lmao exactly what i noticed too!

  • Really how can no1 find out that thats him same voice hair and body !??? That confuls me on show lile that

  • Richies dad is nownawesome

  • I agree. It's funny how it's so obvious that it's Virgil. I mean, c'mon. What if it were Halloween? He'd look exactly like Virgil because he is! Same voice, same haircut; how can they not realize this?!

    It's understandable, being a cartoon & all, but still. Better it be a mystery.

  • @smartaleck05 yeah but saying that Superman looks exactly the same apart from slick back hair and glasses... Static at least has a mask lol :P

  • @McVitiesmuffinjohn Lol, good point.

  • OMG!!! i feel so bad for Richie -crys- but alteast hes ok......darn it i wanted to see richies dads expreshion wen he saw comicon XD

  • first time in the first 8 episodes statics uses his goggles lol

  • There's one of the few hints that Virgil's father knows Static's identity which he does in episode 51.

  • Was that a gay reference at the end? hahaha

  • "We're like, so in control, it's not even funny. *PWNT*

    That, however, was hilarious.

  • ...HOLY SHIT

    The ending clearly hinted they were gay. My god, I love this show so much.

  • comic con

  • "kinda gets you right here doesn't it?"

    "Do your folks know where you are?"

    .....apparently not....

  • God this show is great

  • If I remember correctly, towards the end of the series, Virgil's dad actually DOES catch on to the fact that Virgil IS Static..

  • so why didnt his dad like static? i missed it. but i think they implied it wasnt racism

  • part 2 almost made me cry

  • Mr. Hawkins is a genius. I wish everyone thought like him, the world would be a happier place.

  • @lordoftheTV if hes a genius then why cant he tell his own son from static shock, they look the same and even have the same unique hairstlye, doesn't sound like a genuis to me

  • @MagicalVinsanity he probably does know he just doesnt want to let Vigrel know or anyone that he knows cause like he asked him if his parents knew where he was like thats a warning for him get home

  • @MsVampirestories In the second-to-last episode, his dad admitted that deep down, he always knew Virgil was Static.

  • Evon sounds like Ice-T

  • @xxXPINOYCRUXxx

    have you watched diary of a mad black woman the movie? if you have then you probably would remember a character named mr jameson a drug dealer? well his actor voiced ebon

  • @QilinRider21

    hahaha no sorry i didnt

  • Sadly my dad is more like Richie's dad instead of Static's dad :(

  • thumbs up if you're the 77,777th viewer.....

  • @JackHunter32 nope, im nr 77.786

  • It's scary how easily supervillains adapt to losing their ability to walk down Main Street without scaring kids, sending crowds running, and inspiring little old ladies to spray them in the face with pepper spray.

  • So you mean to tell me his dad didn't notice his son because of his mask that didn't even cover his eyes

  • @Askaters182 The mask draws enough attention away from his eyes that his father doesn't really pay attention.

  • @Askaters182 The power of cartoons. Ever see Danny Phantom? He doesn't even have a mask and no one recognizes him. :P

  • This show has it all! Cool parents, respectable main character, life lessons, and more!

  • I have a racist friend. She's a sweetheart, but she likes talking bad about black dudes--Still, in all honesty, she has nothing against black people. She's racist because as of right now, her opinions don't hurt anyone (there are no black people here, so) but I bet when it starts mattering, she wouldn't care when it comes to color.

    Eh, here's to hoping.

  • @Billie4Mozzarella I disagree.Even hidden, racism is still harmful. In this episode, Richie's dad's racism was hidden, and wouldn't have hurt Virgil if he didn't know about it, but it still hurt his son. If you're close enough to her, I think you should talk to her about it, and see if she's really joking or not. Sorry if I'm being too preachy.

  • "Do your folks know where you are young man?"

    No.....but yes?

  • Mr. Hawkins is one of the coolest television dads ever. Man he is even wiser than Dr. phil. Damn, he actually may be wiser than Yoda.

  • @gurneyman100 NOBODY is wiser than Yoda lol

  • @gurneyman100 except in Identifying his son as static

  • @gurneyman100 Yoda!?!?!?!??! none wiser than Yoda...... (except virgils dad)

  • @gurneyman100 wiser than Mr. Miyagi

  • @gurneyman100 yet he doesnt know static is his son...

  • @gurneyman100 He IS wiser than Yoda

  • @gurneyman100 Wise? Static covers his eyes with a piece of yellow leather and despite his dreads and voice, his dad can't tell it's him...

  • @gurneyman100 nope, he didnt notice that static is his own son, he cant even notice the voice. So, not that wise.

  • wow we finally found a use for those goggles of his

  • Admittedly, this isn't the episode with the best action, but I really liked the way they handled the Racism in the writing, it feels surprisingly natural, even Virgil's dad who's been built up as such a smart guy that many of his speech-like lines still felt natural.

  • "...even the guys" *looks at Richie*

    "Yo yo, let's keep that a surprise V...I wanna see his expression"

    Um, probably not the best way of coming out of the closet Richie. >.<

    For those of you who don't know, Richie is gay in the comic book. Obviously that was a little easter egg for those who do know.

  • @ZyxthePest ::O whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat ???????//!!!!

  • haha that kid at 0:59 has 'dreads' too :P

    so statics not the only one

  • Comic Con? _Crossplay_? Oh my god, this show is so fantastically NERDY sometimes. I'm glad I got back into it after all these years.

  • @dragonfly876 it's cosplay not crossplay XD

    and i'm going to a event tomorrow, should be good

  • @7tacman7 - Crossdressing + cosplay = crossplay. I can only imagine the look on Mr. Foley's face when he sees you typical group of man-Haruhis in wigs and skirts.

    Anyway, have fun at whichever con you're going to! :D

  • @dragonfly876 ohhhhhhh that makes sense now :'D

    and if i saw a male haruhi, i'd never be able to watch melancholy again D:

    or a male version of any female character or a female of any male D:

  • @7tacman7 - Haha, in that case, I would advise never going to Anime Central. You're up to the gills in manskirts there. (I think it makes for extra fun times, though.)

  • @dragonfly876 it's sometimes funny but sometimes it can be kinda creepy D:

  • the guy with the purple hair reminds me of gambit off of X-men thumbs up if you agree.

  • @snipes123456 The Louisiana accent, yeah a little bit

  • Any episode with ebon in it, is bound to be good! =)

  • static - "kinda get you right here doesn't it"

    any other dad with a brain - "virgil?!!!!!!!!! what the fuck are you doing?"

    static - "dad you know its me?"

    any other dad with a brain - "fuck yea I do... you think a white stripe is gonna not let me recognize a voice ive heard for 17 years and probably not notice the only person in the damn city who has your haircut?!!!!!"

    static - "busted..."

  • @Viperstrike28 I lol'd! XD To think if Virgil's dad said that. The fuck are you doin? Fuck yeah I do lmao

  • @Viperstrike28 He suspected it when he asked about his parents. (has to, but no one is allowed to figure it out until after a long time)

  • @Viperstrike28 i think virgil's dad always new he was static, but he must have figured that he didnt need to tell him that he knew because he new virgil would become a better person on his own anyway

  • @Viperstrike28 static is actully only 14

  • @Viperstrike28 vrgils 14 not 17 srry:)

  • @Viperstrike28 Do you really think any other dad with a brain would use the f*** word? And I'm not sure about Virgil being the only one with that haircut. I agree with the rest, however.

  • @videogamester07 It could just be to show that people can be bad or good regardless of their race. Ebon has people of different races in his gang, which could also represent that.

  • 5:36 Static trained under Kakashi.

  • so he can try -_-

  • man hug! back when it was cool.

  • As a kid, this was probably one of only a handful of shows I ever remember tackling the subject of racism. Now that I'm older, it comes off as a bit ham-handed and a tad corny with the ending, but it still is a great message for kids about tolerance and respecting people who are different. Wish more shows would have the guts to do episodes like this.

  • @Lightshade393 Totally. Not only that, but from what I recall, the MAJORITY of Static Shock episodes were dealing with something like this; several with guns and violence, a dyslexia one, and the list goes on.

  • '' look at them, living like pigs'' ,that punk sure can make pig's sound

  • ooo cheese doodles.

  • @danny918ify No offense man, but racism isn't something you can give up. =/ it's undying and unchangeable. It's sad but true.

  • @Zohranio I think you're being a bit too pessimistic. Racism is like any other sort of hatred. It's strong, but it's not eternal.

  • @Zohranio actually my ex was kind of a racist ( not any more but she had good reason) she told me about the school she went to and she was the only white girl there with the exception of latinos/mexicans and they all treated her like garbage

    when she moved to n.c she was shocked at how nice most of the people are down here

    now she has a whole mess of black friends :D

    so racism is not eternal

  • @Zohranio not quite true; tolerant people can become bigots and some people can change and let go. It's hard but it can be done.

  • im glad richies dad gave up racism

  • @danny918ify It's not that easy for HIM, but he'll get over it more and more in time. 8D Or so we can hope.

  • Comment removed

  • @pollyboot2 the hell would make you think that?

  • @cooldude56g What the hell is wrong with you??? I can ask any questions I want!! Don't respond if you don't like the question!!!

  • @pollyboot2 WOW where did that come from? No need for the over-reaction dude, was just asking what would possibly make you think Richie was gay.....

  • @cooldude56g I forgot why I thouth that it was an week sines I wrot that.
