I had NO idea Gary Larson’s comic could be animated! What a pleasant surprise
O M G,where has this been my whole life!!?
😂😂😂
And I thought was weird enough as a comic strip.
the sound design matches the video so perfectly that it is simply awesome! Well done, and thank you for YOUR genius!
Wow, I love that sound work, it makes everything come to live so much. Especially the hot rod time machine, love it! The scientist next door that has all the chicks and fun ;-) I love how the cranking sounds of the engine.
I used to read all my dads far side books when I was younger, I miss those days.
I remember watching the animated movies when it premiered on CBS back in the mid-90's. Nostalgic!!
Excellent sound design. For some strange reason NFB's The Big Snit (1985) jumped into my mind.😄
Gary Larson is a genius 👍
This is awesome.
Gary Larson Will Have His Revenge On The Funny Farm
Francis Farmer Will Have Her Revenge On Seattle?
@@blucat4 Kurt Cobain will have his revenge on Courtney Love
Nicely done. 😊
Thank you SO much!!
The bunny was the best!!
This is giving me Courage vibes!
I like the Dead/Alive switch!
Gary said it best " just stay the funk away from them . "
hello? Hello? Is this Earth? Yes, i'd like to report being abducted by crack-crazed mice? Hello ... helloo ... Another quarter to return? No, none ... Aaaargh! [slurping sounds] Video feed lost.
I'm a Farside fan from way back and I just did not know these works existed.
I'd love to watch a fully animated Far side series.
Good luck 🍀. Not available that i know of . Even 2 short cartoons ,; tales from the far side volume 1 & 2 cannot be viewed completely.. greed by u tube or copyright.. who knows..
@@rzz9594 Thank you, Dave, I'll take, "Grredy UA-cam" for $500., please...
Just like the Dilbert cartoon series, fantasic cartoons but I think just came out a little to late to become popular shows. Sad though, I would have loved a long series of both.
I remember seeing this as a kid and i haven't seen it again till now. This was truly a wonderful nostalgic trip and wish to thank you.
The sound design was perfect, captured the tension, texture and that slightly surreal menace that Larson always got. Great job.
I've never seen this before and I love the Far Side, thank you!
The sound design was just right.
Pure Talent !! To the creators of this comical masterpiece, I say THANK YOU !!!
Gary Larson is a genius.
Way to bring Gary’s creations to life with fantastic sound design. I love it!
Wow! Gary Larson animated! I never saw this! What a treat! Great sound design work!
Had Vol 1 and 2 on VHS cassette in the late 90s - absolutely loved it - I was only about 11 or 12 and probably shouldn't have seen it - it was my mom's copy - shes a big Far Side fan
Sick and delightful. As Gary Larson always is! :)
Good use of the clip from Vincent Price's movie 'The Fly' in the airplane sequence.
Now, I am wanting to see the full "Tales From the Far Side 2" episode.
Wish granted ua-cam.com/video/YCWpXVR9djM/v-deo.html lol
Not a chance., dude
@@rzz9594 let me guess ...copyright.
@@TwoTailedSponge I know where you can watch it...
@@palasta Where? Cause I know of a place already, but I'd still like to hear. Or in this case, read.
I love it when the plane monitor just flashes "Uh-Oh" lol
And the spacecraft Hanks towing 😂
The sound design for this is perfect, and goes perfectly with the animation. Incredible work!
*@Technomorph Sound Design* Ive got nothing but admiration for recording & mixing engineers. Its a tedious indoor job. I wouldnt be able to sit still long enough in front of a mixing console or PC workstation long enough to get _anywhere,_ esp with a project like this one...
At least 2 weeks of continuous cueing, re-cueing & editing, not counting the hours needed to record voice & sound f/x bits in the first place. So kudos to you, Kerry. This demo has helped me realize a better appreciation for your projects, and for that of R&M work in general
And you just have to admit Gary Larsons wit & originality is at least as good as that of Looney Tunes & of the Pink Panther. People can disagree with me all they like, but his comedy is just as much on that level. Had Gary chosen to license his _The Far Side_ out to an animation studio & let them produce a TV series, at least the Simpsons wouldve had a worthy competitor!
Food for thought: I cant be the only person burned out from 30 years of the Simpsons, and from that entire dull dumb franchise of Seth McFarland- - Family Guy, The Clevelands, etc. The Sitcom as a cartoon worked fine for The Flintstones, & the Jetsons. But enough is enough. There are too many other story premises & plots with which to begin- - including some that have yet to be invented- - to just keep exhausting variation after variation of the same dumb theme... its the very opposite of variety, of originality, or ANYTHING fresh & new
Im afraid that if all the viewing Public is satisfied with are shows such as the Simpsons & Family Guy, then the next generation of commercially successful cartoon shows will be even more dumbed-down & pathetic than ever before. When I look at whats being produced today in live-action film- - in Hollywood & overseas- - its actually encouraging. Legitimate storytelling & writing talent is still here. But with regards to whats been most popular in the cartoon world?! As far as Im concerned its been in the TOILET ever since the late 90s
The New Pink Panther was all that I could see carrying on until 1997, which was also the last year that Chuck Jones revived Looney Tunes. Tom & Jerry were also renewed by brand new producers from about 2000 to 2008. Looks to me like theres been little to nothing worth mentioning in new cartoon production since that time. So until something drastic happens, to me thats been the death of "domestic" American cartoons, ever since 😔
As she grew up, thankfully my daughter learned to have better taste & AVOID the Simpsons & Seth McFarlands garbage. And now that Im a grandparent, I would never let my grandkids watch that pathetic junk!
Can I plug Michael Cusack? Check out his work, I think you'd appreciate it...
And The Big Lez Show as well...
Enjoy!!!
@@PsychicIsaacs Thank You for your recommendations, Guineith! I've always loved good cartoons. They keep your sense of humor stimulated & give you a break from life's mental burdens. I'll be sure to look up Michael Cusack & Big Lez 😊💕
The Simpsons and Family Guy were great sitcoms up until a certain point so no need to dump on their entire legacy. If you're looking for quality current animated sitcoms, I'd recommend checking out Close Enough, Tuca and Bertie, Solar Opposites, and The Shivering Truth (this one has more of the dark, absurdist humor that you might associate with The Far Side).
I just recently remembered this classic from my childhood, which I recorded and watched again and again.
Now I can thank one of the makers.
@slitor do you by any chance still have the recordings?
@@TrapperJohn-we7mj I doubt it.
@@TrapperJohn-we7mj You can watch cartoons online you know. ;-)
My cheeks hurt from the silly grin I’ve had for the last ten minutes. 😅
I can slightly remember that scene where a cow is playing an arcade game from when I was probably 3 or 4, but I could not remember from where until now.
Noice, The Farside got many of us through the 80's.
And blow
2:46 If it was composed by Thomas Chase and Steve Rucker, the music of this scene would be more dramatic
K, that was nicely done!! Huge Larson fan, for me, this held up the required droll poker face quality. 🎉😅
Years later and it's still funny.
Love it. Although they're all very good, my favorite is, "Hooves of Fury." Wish I could get a sticker of the fancy time machine with the inventor and the two ladies inside. Make that a pack of stickers so I can plaster them everywhere.
I love that one as well. But I just watched both specials and I can't get the song 'Crazy' out of my head. It sounds sooo good, it's done really well. And the clip has such an unexpected ending. "Crazy for falling in love, with, yoooouuuuuu." 😂
we all know, the dinosaurs were heavy smokers.
Some became Vapattosaurs and one triceratops successfully quit cold Archaeopteryx.
@@nankerphelge3771 Archaeopteryx, meaning "feather" or "wing" as bird type dinosaurs, it's hard to smoke and fly at the same time. Perhaps that's what lead to their down fall.
I had all of his books when I was growing up. I couldn't get enuff of them! For me, finding this video was an ABSOLUTE TREAT!
The Far Side and Calvin and Hobbes. My daily dose of laughter as a teen. Back when there was this lump of wood pulp called a newspaper.
The stampede game was amazing.
Amazing work! These 2 specials are some of my favourite animated spots ever
Since the reintroduction of the comic strip recently, this should be released (1 &. 2 ) on dvd/blu ray
It was re released on dvd, but since gas become out of stock. I got it before it went out of stock. Best chance now is eBay or if it does get a new release.
Big fan of Gary Larson's work... I believe all the men's name is Warren.
Dang, I can't believe I forgot they animated his toon.
3:47 when someone doesn't address the elephant in the room!
I wonder what the dairy cows talk about right before or after milking.
For about a 10'th of a second .
I was half expecting " Robot Chicken " .
Now we've got " Franken Heifer " or " Moo' en Stine " .
The Hunter that was using the antlers as a weapon looked like he had a Klingon bat'leth .
Yeah the Kung-Fu deer even went "Ooooh!" 😄
Kerry/TSD--- The compositions here are uniformly great. The overall tone (EQ) is brash with weak low end, suggesting your monitoring system is a bit off. Big woofers, rolled back mids/highs in your speakers will make you have a mix like this.
Can you upload the full Tales From the Far Side 1 and 2?
Great achievement. The Far Side lives!
This is the most disturbing video I have ever seen
👍👍,Timeless, F'ing hilarious 👏👏👏🖒
0:51 He should be twisting his fingers like fuzes. His eyes like cinnamon. (Beth Orton Stolen Car lyrics).
Thanks for that, you gave me a new song. 🙂
Holy f****** s*** they actually made a far side short animation cartoon!!!!!!!
Insane. Love it.
Surprisingly good S.D. for an animated thingy. 😃
nope
That was fun I enjoyed the heck out of that 🤪
Good theme music. For me, this is only playable musical piece among Frisell's songs.
"Crazy for falling in love, with, yoooouuuuu." 😄
Complicated simplicity and hilarity ensues. G. Larson is creatively comical. When pigs and cows fly.
Thanks for uploading. I remember it being shown back in 97, but never got to fully watch it.
Thanks for the memories!
What exactly was the competition she won that trophy for?
Never EVER gets old 😂😂😂❤
U don't have to be on acid to enjoy comic but it sure helps
Finally a little sanity in this crazy world we all share.
Wonderful! Why aren't these better known?
I had no idea Larson did cartoons. Awesome
Why would someone cut the part where the dudes shoot the deer and strap it to the car? Political correctness stupidity?
3:40
This is only 10 minutes of a total of 75 minutes for both shows, it's all been cut short, every scene, and many scenes not shown.
The two _The Far Side_ animated programs are sublime and delightfully macabre and zany. I love the animation, sound work, Bill Frisell's music contributions, the dark humor, and the whole mood. They're basically perfect fare for when Halloween comes around in the autumn. Happy to find this video here.
The songs are great, esp in Tales ftfs II, I just love 'Crazy', it sounds terrific. I guess that's Bill Frisell on guitar.
@@blucat4 Frisell was a great choice. ua-cam.com/video/EP-TOJ41OiA/v-deo.html&pp=ygUVYmlsbCBmcmlzZWxsIGZhciBzaWRl
Love the sarcasm. Great cartooning. Thanks!
Man I love it
full length feature film when??
The first time machine sounds just like my car!
excellent work kerry
FINALLY !!! the answer to all those out- place - artifacts!!!
How I wish these would be given the Blu-ray treatment...
Excellent work!
Are these available on DVD or Blu-ray? I never saw these specials and I'm a huge fan of Larson's work.
Glorious.
I don't know why I fixated on it, but one of the funniest things in all this, to me, was that the time machines had bumpers.
I should get it on DVD. 😀👍💿
Awesome.
Brings life to the single panel sketches we're used to from G Larson .
thanks for posting, nice work
EXCELLENT!!!!!
From the sound designer of Ed Edd n Eddy
Bring to tv!
the far side is hilarious. 🤣the books are pure comedy gold
GARY LARSON ....come back!!
Why isn’t the deer 🦌 hunter cartoon shown completely? Also a person can’t view gary larson cartoons completely anymore. What gives ? U tube algorithm? Nobody watches anything for free anymore?
Wow how cool I never knew there was a Far Side cartoon.
You can watch cartoons online you know. ;-)
Still incomplete, how to watch Volume 2 ? Used to be a couple of years ago more gary larson videos were available to view , not anymore though.. ? What gives?
1:10 It's the Bride Of Holstein.
