A Great Episode from The Backyardigans - Who Goes There?

 

The Backyardigans is still one of my favorite childhood shows I've experienced. I watched a few episodes yesterday and they were jam-packed with tons of action and music. To me, it's the perfect show for younger audiences. 

One episode was called Who Goes There? from Season 3 Episode 1. This was really entertaining and funny at times. I don't ever think I watched this episode when I was little but now after seeing it for the first time, I can tell that this is what it like and enjoyed about the show.

Every episode starts with the backyard, someone in the main cast introduces themselves and explaining their occupation they are going to imagine and sing about it. 

In this episode, Tyrone is a museum security guard who bravely protects the world's greatest art. The layouts as always are really fun and engaging.

 The plot is very easy to follow. Tyrone has to keep the museum clean because of a new exhibit. 

The creativity in this episode is fantastic. Both Tyrone and Tasha explore different artworks, but you can definitely recognize 3 of them. General Pablo is a statue, Lady Uniqua is an oil painting, and Austicles placed onto a Greek vase. 

When they finally meet together, Austicles recites a poem about how nighttime is better than daytime because the art becomes alive and play during the night hours, make sense because in the next few scenes, they play tag and get into alot of trouble. 

Tyrone seemingly thinks that there's a thief entering the museum and begins to search around. This adds alot of funny moments throughout it like Tyrone reacting to the painting saying it's weird looking, there's also a moment where the trio clashes into a horse ride and it's actually amusing.

The final epic moment in the entire episode is The Splatter Paint Flamenco. It has a great song, and the entire battle is very enjoyable.

Tyrone realizes that he might be fired for causing a mess especially in terms of the blank canvas. But the final few minutes aren't wasted as the trio helps fix the mess and clean up the museum just in time. When Tasha returns she notices the canvas is all splattered, but she thinks it's beautiful which any viewer who also experienced this episode would be surprised to see coming but it's a great way to end it nonetheless.

My final thoughts, I absolutely loved this episode. The premise, the energy, the character roles were all memorable and perfect. I just really hope that this show has the recognition and love that it deserves.

I wanted to show the full episode since it's free to watch on YouTube, credits to Treehouse Direct.

Backyardigans

 

The Backyardigans is one of my favorite TV shows, I loved it when I was a kid but I like it even more today, because of the atmosphere, characters and variety.

The episodes were jam-packed with songs, action and filled with imaginable places to explore. These scenes I chose are beautiful. This is one of the most pleasent shows I ever seen.

The backgrounds are gorgeous and realistic. There's a bunch of things happening but it's not too distracting either. 

I remember watching these episodes. They were fun and enjoyable. It felt longer than it needed to be. Usually these episodes are a usual runtime for TV.

This is the final episode, I actually like this ratio more than 4:3 like they did in the first few seasons. This is awesome. This is what I like in medieval themes.

I also liked how the horses are modeled. It looks so weird but it fits really well.

It's relaxing. I wish these types of shows would get more recognition. They make you feel good and it has an appropriate pace.

Not to mention that all the main characters have memorable and distinctive personalities, and great designs. I love how we can recognize almost every character. Pablo, is a penguin, Tyrone is a moose, Tasha is a hippo, Austin is a kangaroo. And Uniqua. Most people including me could never knew what her species was. She was just pun intended, "unique."

The character interactions are also great. It's straightforward and to the point. 

I also loved the different outfit style choices, in almost every single episode, each place they would have a unique sense fashion and it would fit the character role perfectly.

I almost regularly watch a few moments of Backyardigans anytime I would like whether its the music, the beauty, the inspirational characters, almost everything about the Backyardigans is peak entertainment for me.

If this show had way more of a broad demographic, this would've been more incredible, but I can see why it doesn't have the appeal to mostly the adults which kinda upsets me. I think it's the overall simple charm and sometimes unusual energy to the songs. But I love all of it. It's a show that I would recommend younger audiences to watch.

My Very First Drawings I Could Find

 

I first started watching and experiencing art when I was about a year old, and I grew up watching stuff on Nick Jr. the most. Shows like Yo Gabba Gabba, The Backyardigans, Ni Hao Kai Lan, and while I watched them back then, I had a real interest in doing something that would change my life. I was extremely hands-on when I was a toddler and I mostly colored with crayons on a messy piece of paper.

This isn't what I drew when I was a toddler but this was basically what my creations pretty much looked like -

For a few years I didn't really know too much on cartoon characters because I was still really little. 😅 

But when I did, I really did and I couldn't stop drawing characters.

In fact the first drawing I ever found and discovered in my old drawings was a picture of Mario. I pretty much had limited color crayons back then but it's still a treasure. 

Another Mario character called Bob Omb I drawn the same day as I did Mario. I felt like at that time I was obsessed with the franchise. I loved the characters designs, and I played games on my DS almost every day when I was 5 or 6.

This one is really interesting for one thing I used to have when I was little.

Of course I had toys when I was really young and I remembered having Jake and The Neverland Pirates figures of Jake and Izzy with their water jets, since I liked the show when I was around 6.

This probably isn't the very first time i drew the spongebob crew but it's the first in which is existed. Mr. Krabs looks funny, Squidward's eyes are not right and I can't see where spongebob is since I guess back then I didn't have a yellow marker.

Ok, yeah, I know I wasn't allowed to watch Aqua Teen for a reason when I was about 7 but I always loved the designs of Master Shake, Frylock and Meatwad, when I first seen them they felt so different than any other character I ever seen back then.

I started to get way more skilled drawing characters when I was about 8. I was also in love for the sonic characters and basically drew every character at least the main ones. Fun Fact, I actually wanted to bring this to my elementary school once and my teachers loved it.

As of 2024, I'm a 17 year old wacky cartoonist nowadays in a love for classic animation and dancing and now my drawings look like this.

I became more of a digital artist and a cartoon character designer pro as well as drawing nostalgic like backgrounds. The future is looking bright out there.

Anyways posting more tomorrow. Bye-a! 👋
