it would have worked perfect if they cut to it, they said it once, then cut to black, but in the actual ep it's prolonged like an SNL sketch that is too long
"The power of money" bit is worth about 10 seconds. I think the edit as shown here is perfect. Anything more than that, I'd start just getting annoyed at them.
I thought it was a case of the first person was just confused by how the word racy is pronounced, and everyone else sort of emperor’s new clothes’ed it, afraid to correct whoever they hears and assuming it was a real word, making it a running gag.
@@GendoRokabundi That seems to be very nearly the only possible explanation that's based on how humans actually behave. It's the actual least depressing answer. :%(
when I was 12 I convicned my parents to let me watch Nightmare on Elm, invited all my cool friends because we were gonna watch a freaking classic, but when I put the VHS from Blockbuster (which clearly had the label FREDDY KRUEGER 1), this show appeared on the 14' tv... my cool friends never talked to me again
So back when I was renting my soul to the American military apparatus, I worked on sonar, and the "who was watching the sonar" thing is wacky as hell even if sonar had existed at the time. Commercial ships having actual sonar domes is something that is only becoming common relatively recently, and it's mostly on merchant and research ships operating in the arctic. For the most part, commercial ships have range finders that look under the ship and tell them how deep the water is. They can see a something like a reef or underwater mountain coming up but they can't see an iceberg, and definitely couldn't even back when this show was made, much less in the black and white days. The two main reasons for that are that you need a specialized team to operate and maintain the kind of big complicated sonar system military ships have and that that kind of sonar is loud af. You couldn't just keep it running on something like a cruise ship without the passengers being able to hear it, so ships that have it tend to turn it on in unfamiliar or known dangerous waters, and leave it off most of the time. For the most part, radar is better than sonar for navigation if you are above the surface, being cheaper, easier to work with, higher resolution, longer range, and faster updating, and can be run without disturbing your passengers, so front facing sonar tends to only be seen on certain ships doing certain things in certain places. Even if sonar had existed when the Titanic was built, I'm not sure it would have been installed. I mean, the "Yarghhh me maties. Man the sonar ye gundecking landlubbers" performance wasn't great either, but she should have researched her lies a tiny bit better if she wanted to retain plausible deniability.
Yeah I think most people have a very, very skewed idea of what sonar does. Not military myself but I have a buddy who was submarine crew, and he's explained that proper sonar can actually stun or kill you if you're up close and personal with a ping. Just... Significant amounts of force, heavy, complicated machinery, not a magic 'see underwater' button.
@@dustind4694 Oh yeah. If you are in the water near a ship when they go active it is pretty much guaranteed to shatter your eardrums, and will probably cause some internal bleeding. Death is a distinct possibility. It was actually part of our normal procedure and training to flip the sonar on in a "swimmer in the water" situation, not to see them or anything (we couldn't see something as small as a person anyway), but just to make their ears (and possibly other things) bleed so they stop swimming. If someone is trying to swim to the ship, first you turn the sonar on. If that doesn't stop them, you hit them with the "pain ray". If they still keep coming, then you just shoot them. Incidentally, this is also why we have to turn it off (unless we are doing something real important) when there are whales around. Whales have special ears and jawbones that make them able to deal with loud underwater sound without blowing out their eardrums, but they still don't like how insanely loud naval sonar is so they will try to swim as fast as they can away from it, sometimes beaching themselves in the process. Every time we've done "Tiger Cruises", where we bring civilians onboard and let them sail around with us for a while, the thing they are always the most surprised by with the sonar is how fucking loud it is. That little "ping" that you hear in the movies wouldn't be able to see 10 feet in front of the dome.
I am EXTREMELY stoked that you are doing more episodes about this show. Couple notes: 1) This wasn't cable tv, it was on FOX Network back when it was UHF. Like, back when it was a Weird Al-ass UHF channel that didn't always come in because it was so high up the frequency band. This was before The Simpsons and COPS and FOX NEWS turned it into a major contender. 2) That Oliver character is played by the same actor as Loki on Supernatural, and honestly you can't convince me that character himself isn't just Loki from Supernatural. 3) FREDDYS PROM HAS GOT IT GOING ON... ok had to get that off my chest. 4) I literally cannot wait until you get to the super homoerotic episode with John Cameron Mitchell.
I wonder if the fake psychic was meant to be a genuine medium in the first draft of the script. (Yes, I'm assuming these stories had more than one draft.) The possession thing would make perfect sense if she was genuinely channelling spirits and just had really bad luck with who she made contact with. And now I'm thinking what if they made her the real deal, but still did the Titanic bit, not because she was faking, but because the spirit was. She actually contact Jim, the former convience store clerk turned roofer who died because he went to work stoned one day and fell off the scaffold. Wanting some attention and realising that nobody in the room would care what he had to say, he decided to pretend to be someone more interesting.
10:34 This is hilarious. The fake rat prop wasn't convincing enough and a little living mouse just chilling there wouldn't be scary enough on its own so they had to do them both at once
I feel like since Mike Deluca had a major hand in Freddy’s Nightmares and wrote Freddy’s Dead around the same time, Freddy’s Dead is actually a theatrical sequel/finally to Freddy’s Nightmares. Freddy’s Dead has way more in common with Freddy’s Nightmares than any movie in the franchise.
look, I'm 42. I grew up in the 80s. I loved Freddy... I even sometimes caught this show on tv because it aired in the middle of the day. but NO ONE has ever said "racky" except in this show.
Yooo I recognized the actor that played the trickster/Gabriel in Supernatural with his baby face right away - Richard Speight Jr. is apparently in just these 2 episodes of Freddy's nightmares
Now if only the fashion sense from these episodes of Freddy’s Nightmares had translated over to Gabriel in Supernatural, then we would have had the full package, chef’s kiss. Lol
They say "Racky" and I hear "Reccy" and I'm wondering why a fashion photographer is being sent on reconnaissance. Do we need to know the hem length of the enemy? Maybe.
I'm so grateful to learn that the ancient baltic finnic steam bath sauna was actually invented in the 20th century from the 80s freddy gruger tv-anthology. You learn new things everyday, even of your own culture!
Did you watch this entire series? Its surreal. It's like being in a different dimension where they know Freddy was a character but didn't know anything but the basics. Sweater, hat, razor fingers, yeah yeah we got it.
This unlocked a memory for me, for some reason my mom had lots of episodes of this that she had taped back in the late 80s and so I would watch this show all the time and absolutely loved it as a 10 year old in the early 2000s.
"A cable TV budget"? Oh no, my friend, Freddy's Nightmares aired not only on regular ass antenna TV, but syndicated, UHF dial, probably kinda fuzzy antenna TV. THAT's the kind of budget that show was getting.
I literally found this out the week this episode was announced and I need you to know this, Mildred, but the reason these episodes are so horny is because they are part of the 4 episodes directed by Tom DeSimone who got big as a pornography director in the 70's before getting cult classic horror and comedy hits Hell Night (1981) and The Concrete Jungle (1982). I found out about him because of the porno title Confessions of a Male Groupie or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Electric Banana
"Introduced and sometimes featured in" - I watched that show almost every week hoping Freddy would actually be IN the episode rather than at the beginning and I don't know that I ever saw one like that. It must have been very rare.
There were 4 episodes each season that featured Freddy directly interacting with the characters as part of the plot, or "Freddy-centric"(I coined that phrase back in 1992). For a total of 8 Freddy-centric episodes.
I assume anything that was made during the 80s and early 90s was fueled by cocaine. So, none of this is shocking. It is pretty funny and entertaining, though.
Freddy's nightmares is on paper a show that I should love, but in practice it's kind of unwatchable outside of the episodes where Freddy is the direct villain. Every single episode has themes of dreams and the implication with all of them is that Freddy is fucking with the residents of springwood through their dreams to direct them to the ironic bad ends they come to. But the problem with that is that in practice it's never clear what is a dream and what is actually happening, and while you understand Freddy is involved with these weird nightmares, the characters usually don't, which means their foregone deaths is kind of anticlimactic because they never even realize there's a third party making things worse for them. The constraint also makes the episodes very, very, very repetitive, which is a horrific flaw for an anthology series to have. Usually the benefit of such shows is that outside of sticking to a main genre (horror, sci fi, etc.) you can tell very diverse stories with rotating guest actors. In this show every single episode involved dreams, confusing Freddy-related imagery, and being in Springwood. Don't watch it!
Not the commissioned All-Seeing Goat artwork reminding me of a oddball random dream where I was the only family member freaked out about why we just letting in a tall horse-looking dog with eyeballs all over its body. Also "negative energy" Freddy is gonna sit with me. That was hilarious.
I thought he was a molestar because of how strongly it's implied in the first movie. In fact, it was going to be explicitly stated, but in the wake of the McMartin witchhunt-- I mean, trial; Wes rewrote parts of the script, vanishing all mentions of sexual assault to the realm of subtext.
Freddy's Nightmare wasn't on cable but syndicated over-the-air, usually relegated to late nights on UHF stations. I loved all the syndicated Horror shows as a kid in the 80's: Monsters, Tales from the Dark Side, War of the Worlds, Friday the 13th the series and of course Freddy's Dead.
apparently the actor who played oliver went on to be a recurring character on Supernatural?! never watched it, but from what I can tell this definitely helped
You covering this show made me adhd associate it with Tubi which also has 1971 Kamen Rider which has a lot of psychedelic horror stuff I’d love to see this channel tackle. It’s like 90something episodes though and I think there’s maybe like 3 wet puppets throughout with all the others being dry and sandy
I love the guy dressing as a ghost to get the drop on Freddy. You can see the thin thread of logic there. Freddy is a ghost, so if I dress as a ghost then he'll trust me as a fellow ghost and never see it coming. It's a shame the second part of the plan was to shoot him with a gun, not something ghosts are known as being susceptible to.
The Johnson's thing would work fine if it was in order, so I imagine the episodes were already shot then the network or producers decided to change the order they aired in. Happened all the time with TV back in the day
My favorite example being mst3k wherein they were forced to do continuity arcs and then the episodes were scrambled hahaha I love the exposition this created so, terribly
I initially missed that the model escaped Freddy’s clutches once but ended up in his vicinity and dying to Freddy later by complete chance. That’s really rotten luck
The original Nightmare on Elm Street had a lot more sexual overtones and Freddy was absolutely a child abuser, but the Kern County child abuse hysteria was in full force at the time and Wes Craven thought it was in bad taste, so he toned down Freddy’s pervyness and ditched all the child abuse stuff which is why it’s a little vague in the original. The Kern County child abuse hysteria is a wild story on its own. 30-something people falsely convicted of satanic child abuse because some crazy old lady coached her grandkids to say they were abused at a daycare and it just blew up into 60 kids being coerced into falsely accusing innocent people. The convicted got their sentences overturned like a decade later, but the prosecutor was still in office 20 years after the hysteria. Peak injustice.
Minor note that I didn't notice until the clip was played again: The family having their picture taken at the very beginning appears to be the Johnsons.
"The power of money compels you" actually made me laugh along with that "Negative Freddy" gag. This show is truly something.
it would have worked perfect if they cut to it, they said it once, then cut to black, but in the actual ep it's prolonged like an SNL sketch that is too long
Same.
I will start quoting both of these, theyre too good
You've never heard of "racky"? It's a perfectly cromulent word.
I've certainly enbiggened my vocabulary today!
Proposal to make "Sonar wasn't invented when the Titanic sailed!" The hot new gotcha line
Well, except by bats and cetaceans
I love the star of this show, Bobby Duke, who Mildred thought up after consuming a marijuana edible.
Wait, are you telling me that Mildred thought up Bobby Duke, the star of the channel, while high on a marijuana edible??
@@Coleydubz I'm not even kidding ya! Bobby Duke, star of the channel, was just something that Mildred thought up while high on a marijuana edible!!!
@@charlottehollingsworth9125 the star of the channel, thought up after Mildred consumed marijuana edibles...is Bobby Duke?!
fucking word
Ok but the pipeline from "Oliver looks kind of familiar" to "Is that GABRIEL FROM SUPERNATURAL?" was a trip.
Thank you for saving me a trip to IMDB!
I know right!
That "power of money compels you" joke genuinely made me laugh tho
"The power of money" bit is worth about 10 seconds.
I think the edit as shown here is perfect.
Anything more than that, I'd start just getting annoyed at them.
Oh man... I'm so sorry.
I am obsessed with the word Racky. Why did this show make up a slang word and try so hard to make it happen? That's so funny
I thought it was a case of the first person was just confused by how the word racy is pronounced, and everyone else sort of emperor’s new clothes’ed it, afraid to correct whoever they hears and assuming it was a real word, making it a running gag.

I'm a foreigner and it worked on me. I'm gonna annoy the shit out of my English speaking friends.
Stop trying to make racky happen, it's NOT going to happen!
@@KaishaLouise Yeah, you're probably right. But you gotta admit, it's a pretty racky idea!
Bobby Duke, when are you going to reveal to us all that Mildread is just a hallucination you thought up of while high on worms?
So Racky.
The bones are their money. So are the worms.

You can’t convince me that Mildred now doesn’t use the Bobby Duke voice as their everyday voice, and the Mildred voice is just for us.

I'm really glad your work on this channel can be properly financially appreciated, the incentive helps I'm certain.
Howard Nehamkin is an anagram for "naked rhino wham" and I think that explains everything

Full disclosure I only knew about Freddy’s Nightmares because I used to have a hardcore crush on Robert Englund and seek out his obscure stuff
Hallucinations are kinda dream like, I can accept the logic even if it may appear contradictory.
I'm reminded of the micro nap concept from the *shudder* Nightmare remake. Good concept, icky movie.
About the fifth time I heard "racky" I had to pause the video, I feel like I'm losing my mind
I've seen every episode of this show. I love it unironically.
Stop trying to make Racky happen, Freddy's Nighmares. Racky's never gonna happen
i think i used to watch this show on chiller or something. it was so dang weird
And here I thought Bobby Duke would've turned that situation into a double date - the more the merrier
Oliver played by the same guy who was Gabriel in Supernatural... looks like he didn't change much.
Freddy's nightmares is on paper a show that I should love, but in practice it's kind of unwatchable outside of the episodes where Freddy is the direct villain.

Don't watch it!
yo mildred i gotta recommend midnight mass, not just for scaredy cats but just in general it’s good religious horror and it’s very fun
The "Power of money" joke is fucking hilarious.

When those over-the-top, racky photos have the same racy edge as a Spirit Halloween advertisement. Magnificent.
It warms my heart that Bobby Duke doesn't play games.
I refuse to believe everything described here all occurs in a single episode.
i do feel the need to point out that the dude that played the assistant Oliver also played the archangel Gabriel and Loki in Supernatural
“Oliver” is in Easy Company in band of brothers!!! How racky is that -ish??

The Kern County child abuse hysteria is a wild story on its own. 30-something people falsely convicted of satanic child abuse because some crazy old lady coached her grandkids to say they were abused at a daycare and it just blew up into 60 kids being coerced into falsely accusing innocent people. The convicted got their sentences overturned like a decade later, but the prosecutor was still in office 20 years after the hysteria. Peak injustice.
Minor note that I didn't notice until the clip was played again: The family having their picture taken at the very beginning appears to be the Johnsons.
So I ALMOST wonder if there could be some sort of timeline patched together from their appearances (unless they die multiple times in the series).
Thank you for diving into this well!
This vid was perfect, no notes
Yknow the way this show is written I keep expecting a laugh track, and the lack of a laugh track is actually really throwing me off
The photo episode had a moral that *would’ve* worked: be careful who you trust.
