Cartoon Night in Canada

Tv & Film

Frequency: 1 episode/9d. Total Eps: 142

We're on a nostalgic journey to dig through decades of Canadian animation to find the good, the bad, and the just plain weird cartoons of the Great White North. Every week, Sylvie and Chris take a look at an animated something or other from their shared experience of growing up in Canada to see what holds up, what left an impact on us, and what is best left in the past.

Season 2 · Episode 118

Saturday, October 12, 2024 • Duration 01:13:09

Making good on our Spooktober promise to bring back some old favourites, we are taking another look at one of the greatest Canadian produced shows and one of the best examples of introducing the horror genre to kids - Martin Mystery. What other show for kids would attempt a parody of Stanley Kubrick's The Shining? And set it in British Columbia?

Episode covered for the podcast is episode 15 "Haunting of the Blackwater." Written by Simon Racioppa & Richard Elliot. Directed by Stephane Berry & Gregory Panaccione. Original airdate March 3, 2004.

Episodes 109 - Mysticons

Season 1 · Episode 109

Saturday, June 22, 2024 • Duration 01:14:55

On this week's Pride special, we are taking you back to a dark time for LGBT representation in children's entertainment where the idea of a same-sex kiss was shot down by corporate meddling in the pre-production phase. Ok...maybe not that far back. Back in 2017, a little Nelvana magical girl show could have been one of the first steps forward for moderate representation of LGBT characters. Unfortunately for Mysticons, Nickelodeon was not willing to support the production team's vision. And we needed to sell toys...a capitalist tale as old as time.

Episode covered for the podcase was episode 7 "Scourge of the Seven Skies." Written by Grant Sauvé. Directed by Matt Ferguson. Original Canadian airdate September 24, 2017.

Season 1 · Episode 21

Saturday, June 18, 2022 • Duration 01:01:56

On this week's episode, Sylvie and Chris jump on the Paddington hype train to discuss the only adaptation of the marmalade loving bear to be produced by the Great White North with The Adventures of Paddington Bear (1997). Mostly we chat about Michael Bond's storybook character, his enduring appeal and legacy, and our personal histories with Paddington while sifting through the utterly comforting vibes and pleasant aesthetics of the 1997 CINAR adaptation.

Episode covered is Episode 2 "Paddington Goes Underground / Paddington in the Ring / Mr. Curry Lets Off Steam."

Episode 20 - John Callahan's Quads!

Season 1 · Episode 20

Saturday, June 11, 2022 • Duration 56:36

On this week's episode, Sylvie and Chris get back into poorly conceived and try-hard offensive adult animation with the unexpected adaptation of a controversial cartoonists' therapeutic newspaper cartoons. While chatting about John Callahan's fascinating career, work, and enduring legacy, we dive into the=is strange attempt to turn him into a household name through the medium of adult cartoons with the seemingly forgotten series QUADS!. Despite our best efforts to talk around it, we nevertheless dissect the bad humour, bad aesthetic, and all-around bad taste it left in our mouths after watching.

Episode covered is Episode 7 "Gonad's Faust."

Episode 19 - Flying Rhino Junior High

Season 1 · Episode 19

Saturday, June 4, 2022 • Duration 01:05:04

On this week's episode, Sylvie and Chris go back to school with a maniacal phantom creeper in the basement with Flying Rhino Junior High. While once again bemoaning how hard it is to find any research on the shows we cover, we discuss show creator Ray Nelson Jr.'s unique approach to character design and the spurious merits of edutainment in a post-Magic School Bus world. Plus, we dissect the unmistakably incel vibes from the show's main villain.

Episode covered is Episode 2 "Phantu's Curse."

Episode 18 - Spliced

Season 1 · Episode 18

Saturday, May 28, 2022 • Duration 01:05:53

On this week's episode, Chris and Sylvie mock God's design with animalistic abominations and unbridled gross-out humour with Nelvana's Spliced. While speculating on what the evil doctor's plan was for all his animal hybrids on his abandoned island, we chat about the show's animation style and classic inspirations and the long lost comedic art of "RAAAAANNNNNDOOOOOM" style jokes. Plus, Sylvie has some choice words for the recent Station Eleven adaptation and both wonder what kind of animal hybrid they would choose to be.

Episode covered is Episode 6 "Honorary Freak" / "Come to the Dork Side."

Episode 17 - CanaDub: Dragon Ball Z (Ocean Group Dub)

Season 1 · Episode 17

Saturday, May 21, 2022 • Duration 56:27

On this week's episode, Chris and Sylvie channel their ki energy and raise their power levels to unreached numbers with the second official episode of anime side series CanaDub. We chat about the Dragon Ball Z dubbing and localization efforts by Saban Entertainment and Vancouver based Ocean Groups to make the intergalactic tale of martial arts palatable for western audiences. While skirting over DBZ and its importance to anime history and our memories of it, we delve into the important narrative and thematic changes made to Toei Animation's flagship series (something something "another dimensions"), the voice cast and their interpretation of these classic characters, and the sole reason why this dub lives in infamy.

Episode 16 - Sons of Butcher

Season 1 · Episode 15

Saturday, May 14, 2022 • Duration 01:04:54

On this week's episode, Chris has to answer for his terrible 14-year old taste as he and Sylvie take a look at the oddity that was Sons of Butcher. While attempting to answer the all-important question of "why it look like that?" we look into the unique production history of the strange, rock comedy born from the mean streets of Hamilton. And of course, the many, many ways it has aged poorly.

Episode covered is Episode 2 "Huntin' the Legend."

Episode 15 - What's With Andy?

Season 1 · Episode 15

Saturday, May 7, 2022 • Duration 55:48

On this week's episode, it's just a prank bro as Sylvie and Chris analyze the many harebrained antics of self-proclaimed master prankster Andy Larkin with the series What's With Andy? While digging into our culture's odd fascination with pranking and practical jokes in the early 2000s, we chat about the show's interesting production history, its animation style and influences, and get at the central question of the series of what exactly is WITH Andy? Spoiler alert: like most prankster, he's kind of a sociopath.

Episode covered is Episode 6 "101 Underpants/Playing Dead."
