@@sandvich4days871 You can search it up, if you want. Long story short, Chinese mother makes a dumpling with a face, and proceeds to raise it like her own child.

@@sandvich4days871 It was a short produced by pixar, where a mother suffering from empty nest syndrome has one of her bao buns magically come to life. And when the kid starts trying to leave the nest again... she eats him.
Yeh he was even revered as “The Deli Owner” or “The Friendly Neighbor” but know he’s known as “Just The Black Guy” or “The Black Peter” when we all know his his own character how even had his own spinoff Ohh how Family Guy has fallen😔
The thing is though, Pixar does it to give you something to watch before the movie begins. Family guy does it bc they genuinely need to pad out time. It was a pretty good short they made though
Gotta love how there are 5 mail boxes next to each other in front of a yard between two houses, and there is not a hint that says which house each mailbox belongs to
Okay, so coming from a carrier: Why there could be 5 - 1.) A house can be split, i.e. part of the house is being rented out, requiring additional mailboxes. 2.) On a route, the mailboxes can all be on one side of the street, meaning three houses on the other side have their mailboxes in this row. As for the lack of identification on the mailboxes - 3.) Yeah, welcome to the postal service. Some people won't put an identifier on their mailbox, but when the mail gets misdelivered they wonder why and blame the carrier (though mistakes do happen, not saying we're all flawless). 5 boxes in a line, as if a carrier is psychic and knows who's is which. To which someone will eventually take a sticker or a marker and mark which is which on the inside of the boxes. As for why they are so close together - 4.) The USPS tries to encourage people to place the mailboxes together like this to make the route more efficient/clean. A cluster of boxes like this is faster to deliver to than boxes evenly split apart in front of people's yards. Honestly... Family Guy got it right, sadly. The only questionable thing to me is having mailboxes like that when Cleveland is a city carrier, which means he delivers door-to-door on foot instead of delivering in a vehicle. But in my area, we have nothing but rural routes so I cannot say how legit that is.
Reminds me a father good old days where the classics of shows like Loony Toons and Tom and Jerry balanced perfectly with the action shows like Bakugan, Danny Phantom and Power Rangers ☺️
Very weird that Donna found out that Cleveland’s mom died before he did, not to mention that she texted it to him while he’s at work, that’s more of a sit down and process it kind of conversation, not a phone call/text message conversation.
I actually really like this skit holly cow. Pretty well animated and choreographed. Edit: I don't think the "Your mother is dead" joke at the end was necessary.
If this were done today it wouldn’t be a cellphone text. It would be a scanner text from his supervisor telling him that he’s been at that location too long and to get back to work.
As a former mail carrier this didn’t happen often but when it did most of the time you have to push the lid in as hard as you can so it latches, if not then I would put the mail as far back as I could so it’s not visible to anyone and just walk away like nothing happened 😂
So, this just proves that the Family Guy staff can make a good episode with wonderful animations and storytelling, it’s just they’re too lazy and just don’t want to do it.
I love how it felt like a Pixar short right up until the text message.

When a random skit has higher animation quality than the entire rest of a show:
it probably cost less
@@jeremyoake1536 u guess that depends how much they're paying there writers and voice actors compared to the animators

@@jeremyoake1536 that’s your opinion but the damn near 20 seasons later it must not be that bad lmao
I‘m kinda proud that they kept Cleveland as a mailman. At least the show has some degree of continuity.
Well, tbh, they maintained a certain level of celeb roast, racism, self awareness too, amongst other things as a continuity...

As a former mailman this is annoyingly accurate. Those damn boxes NEVER stay up.
Does any one carried duct tape every time it happened?
@@vihuynhquang5204 I don’t think your allowed to tape a mailbox.
@@vihuynhquang5204 its up to the person whos box it is to make sure the mechanism works
@@vihuynhquang5204 if its a metal mailbox, I would probably figure out where the lid clips shut and bend it a bit so it shuts tighter.
I could see Cleveland doing this forever.
Anyone remember when Cleveland worked at a Deli
Yeh he was even revered as “The Deli Owner” or “The Friendly Neighbor” but know he’s known as “Just The Black Guy” or “The Black Peter” when we all know his his own character how even had his own spinoff
Ohh how Family Guy has fallen😔
pepperidge farm remembered
thank superstore usa on that
@@fantasy-artist4425 at least they made a joke about the last one.
Quick, change pigments!
that same deli went out of bussines the same season it was introduced.
Besides the shoehorned “dead mother” bit, they were pretty on the nose with this one.
i think it's just to jab at how disney/pixar 's movies might feature dead parental figures
“Carlos & Elle” what a way to reference UP
Wow… the style and just-… everything about this short gave me childhood flashbacks.
Sorry for your loss
@@geckogeico2212 ... what? ^^;
They didn't need to put the Mother's died part in. It was a legitimately funny short.
it was creepy and a bit disturbing if i am being honest
I think it was a jab that in almost every disney movie the mother is dead
@@LilMike-ty5uj Nah it’s just Family Guy not being able to go two minutes without some sort of shock value joke
@@LilMike-ty5uj that implies a level of satisfaction on McFarlane's part that he no longer has for this show. He desperately wants to end it.
@@jackzimmy8461 remember when it use to be funny. Like it would have a shock joke but didn't need to rely on them.
0:31
"Carlos & Elle."
Oh, VERY subtle.
i came down here to see if anyone noticed also, i do love family guy for small things like that.
@@brownswarm ion get it what's it a reference to?
The Pixar movie “Up”. The names “Carlos and Elle” are a reference to the main character Carl and his late wife Ellie.
@@jonahmorissun5166 I didn't know either. That movie came out when I was well out of high school and don't have kids so.
The movie Up. Where that mailbox was very important.@@jonahmorissun5166
Surprised they didn’t just have Cleveland sprain his ankle for the entire two minutes.
Nah they're copying Mr bean his humor is too good for that
We'll miss Cleveland's Original Voice.
the new voice is gonna be spot on though. we heard a bit of him in the comic con trailer
Although It's not the same, I couldn't ask for a better voice.
Azzerz amiright
The new voice is azerzz, everybody go sub to him!
His original voice and job
Plot twist: His putting wrong mails to wrong addresses.
That would have been a funnier ending than the dead mother joke.
He gets a text from his boss saying
"Reminder that today is Sunday"
As a mail carrier myself. There is always a lid that doesn't want to stay shut... Always.
The thing is though, Pixar does it to give you something to watch before the movie begins. Family guy does it bc they genuinely need to pad out time.
It was a pretty good short they made though
0:32 isn’t that the mailbox from Up?
Yes
Hey man that Chinese one had me bawling my eyes out WHILE ON MY VERY FIRST DATE😂
0:32 I feel like this is an Up reference
(Also RIP Carl’s Voice Actor)
Imagine you looking over your window and you see this 😂
Omg they even got the sounds right XDD

Cleveland and the Mailboxes of madness
Reminds me a father good old days where the classics of shows like Loony Toons and Tom and Jerry balanced perfectly with the action shows like Bakugan, Danny Phantom and Power Rangers ☺️
"YOU'VE GOT MAIL!!!"
This kind of stuff is better than the actual show.
This is the actual show tho?
Cookie's death makes me genuinely unhappy.
Imagining the voice acting for this short is really funny to me.
You'd just be standing in the booth making all variants of "hmm" noises
They’re talking about Bao! 😊
If this was a daily kids cartoon,i'd be so happy to see it😂
I think there was a missed opportunity for Cleveland's jaw to drop at the same time the mailboxes opened, but outside of that, good short
This is how people with OCD are.
There’s some serious Pac-Man 2 energy on that mailbox bit 💀
Very weird that Donna found out that Cleveland’s mom died before he did, not to mention that she texted it to him while he’s at work, that’s more of a sit down and process it kind of conversation, not a phone call/text message conversation.
The credits is the best part.
I actually really like this skit holly cow. Pretty well animated and choreographed.
Edit: I don't think the "Your mother is dead" joke at the end was necessary.
Finally someone else acknowledges how creepy that Pixae short was.
I watched this recently and laugh my ass off with that unexpected ending 😂😂
Least they remembered to give Cleveland a job when he came back
This is like Cleveland meets Mr. Bean
i need the song
I am convinced this was made by Pixar.
I am assuming their testing out how Family guy would work being kid friendly with the short.
No
^
I think The text message should've just said, "you were right it is your day off." Simpler punchline that kinda fits the gag a bit more
Or Peter saying "the baseball seats are all taken"
Or his boss saying, "Cleveland, you're fired!".
They seriously don’t know how to end things anymore it was perfect until the dead mom joke just a little more restraint would have done them some good
absolutely love the mr bean grunts
I’m not a Family Guy fan. But this homage to classic comedy was pretty good. Even with the dark twist.
If I had to choose what that text would say, I would've gone with something like: "You're going on a diet and you need to join a gym"
Cleveland os adorable
Wow they did decent animation for once
This was the moment Cleveland Brown became Postman Pat
This bit in the show:
99.9% family-friendly humor.
0.01% "ooh damn, Seth" 4/5
If this were done today it wouldn’t be a cellphone text. It would be a scanner text from his supervisor telling him that he’s been at that location too long and to get back to work.
I like it that they credit all of the Korean animators who did this.
This 2 minute short is better then all of modern family guy
"Carlos and Elle" on the mailbox.
It really is a Pixar short.
That's some good old fashioned cartoon slapstick.
Calling tactical nuclear weapons location 5 minutes to reach safe distance postbox have been warned before
RIP to the UP guy
what a weird way to animate a phone vibrating in a pocket
That was cute. Then the writers remembered this is family guy.
Reasons why Cleveland is the best
Who Needs Mailbox From Blue’s Clues?
1:15 his pose reminds me a bit of the calendar photo in a recent episode lol
In the credits you see the army of Korean sweatshop workers who animated the entire video lmao
As a former mail carrier this didn’t happen often but when it did most of the time you have to push the lid in as hard as you can so it latches, if not then I would put the mail as far back as I could so it’s not visible to anyone and just walk away like nothing happened 😂
USPS representation
Someone should take the audio and animate it to a CGI style like Pixar.
Apparently, I can't help but picture Postman Pat here instead of Cleveland.
Did they kill Clevelands mom just for a joke?
They killed his ex wife for a joke. There's definitely a pattern.
They also killed Joe's mom for a joke
If you ask me I think his mother died laughing while watching this short
They killed Dona’s mom for a joke too!
This is the real Cleveland Show
Hey why the hell does this guy have 5 mailboxes anyway
I will say, this was a fun bit
the 500 asian workers joke was funny
aaaaand boom, their whole animation budget for the next three years.
Hens love roosters. Geese love ganders. Everyone else loves ned flanders
I dont think anyone realized that 0:32 the mailbox has "Carlos and Elle" written on it which is a reference to Up with Carl and Ellie
This does give off Pixar vibes
And from that day forward, Cleveland carried a roll of electrical tape with him.
The Pixar one they mention is the dumpling one.
It would have been funnier if the text was from his boss saying that he forgot to tell cleveland to ignore those 5 particular mailboxes
Rip cookie brown
I love how the credits is just the thousands of underpaid korean sweatshop animators lol
So, this just proves that the Family Guy staff can make a good episode with wonderful animations and storytelling, it’s just they’re too lazy and just don’t want to do it.
the most setup a modern family guy joke has had ever.
Cleveland sounds here like Mr. Bean ^^""
This is so much like classical cartoons🥰
It ok Cleveland this happened every time
Ngl the music has Don't Mean A Thing vibes at the start
Now we just need a continuation in short form of shoelace and shoe
I could watch more of these
Cleveland is remarkably limber for a middle age guy.
A pretty good short. Very funny and good music.
Work smarter not harder Cleveland.
Family Guy has now a license to do Looney Tunes shorts.
This was actually really cute-
A mailman without postage stickers to fix this problem, for shame.
If you're crying about the text... It's family guy.
0:44. Me handling school like.
