  • The early 2000's brought us a lot of cartoons that unfortunately didn't last too long, becoming a weird or obscure memory you hold on to for the rest of your life. That's the case here with Yakkity Yak, a show left forgotten by time only remembered by its theme song! So, here's why you barely remember Yakkity Yak!

    What other obscure cartoons or shows can you barely remember but never forgot? (Also, I know the theme song is based off the original song by The Coasters, part of why this theme song is so memorable).

      The Xs is a work of irony considering it ended up becoming obscure, and the BOM had terrible execution but a good concept.

    Fun fact: the theme song was actually written by The Coasters in 1959. I remember this from reading _The Watsons Go to Birmingham_ in the seventh grade, because it's Kenny's favorite song. I used it in a project where I had to create a soundtrack for a hypothetical movie adaptation.
    I don't know if it's because of the show or because the teacher played it in class, but I nicknamed my friend, Zak "Yakitty Yak." Him not liking the name made it really funny.

      An interesting note about Corneil & Bernie: Even though it originally aired and ended in the 00s, they were actually renewed for a second season, which aired around 2014. The bad news was that they *seriously* cut corners going from traditional frame-by-frame, to being Flash animated. It was surprisingly faithful in style and tone, but a lot of the charm was lost in its animation.

It was a 3d animated show where the main character is a penguin, and everyone had cube-shaped heads. I loved watching it before I got ready for school, but it was taken off the air rather quickly from what I remember.

    Nicktoons in 2004 was basically like watching 90's Nickelodeon. Except for the three imported Nicktoons that started in other countries. Kaput and Zosky, Corneil and Bernie, and Yakkity Yak.
    Of these three, Kaput and Zosky was best. I wasn't crazy about Yakkity Yak. My friend told me he hated it when we went to school and I brought it up. It wasn't a great show, it was a little goofy for my taste. I actually remember the show pretty well, and could reference a few gags on the show.
    Despite it's lackluster ranking in my head, the worst show on Nicktoons TV in 2004 would still kick the ass of most shows they put on today.

    I remember watching Yakkity Yak on Nickelodeon when it was airing there which is why I never bothered to revisit it, my memory of it is the killer theme song & this dream I had one time when I was in middle school where I ran into Mr. Highpants in a dark alleyway so yeah, I just never wanted to go back & rewatch this one, remembering it exists is good enough for me.
    As for shows that did make its way over to Nick that are obscure & people should actually go back & re-watch or watch for the first time, I highly recommend Pelswick. It was a show I did watch when it was new to Nickelodeon but it was always my there's nothing good on so I'll watch this series. As a kid, I didn't hate or love it, it was just there & was fine for a watch but holy cow, it's a totally different story watching again as an adult because you actually get the stuff in this series. It says a lot of stuff that I wish people weren't too afraid to say. I always tell people to watch the episode Draw, that's a good example of what you can expect from this series. Pelswick is a hidden gem that I wish people would talk about more.
    Totally dig deep back into those obscure shows, I'd totally love to hear more people talk about My Dad the Rock Star or Corneil & Bernie because nobody touches on those series it feels like. Maybe it's just me who wants to hear people talk about more obscure shows from the early to mid 2000's but I'm super happy to see someone talk about Yakkity Yak because it hit huge within the kids at my school at least & then fell off the face of the planet, it's like with Teacher's Pet, super popular show when it was running but now most people forgot it exists.

    2006, I’m 16 now. I grew up watching nothing but cartoons but I realize I grew up during the end of things good for kids' media. Because not shortly after things like Teen Titans Go came out, beloved cartons getting shameless reboots. So I’d go on to watch channels Nicktoons, Boomerang, 4Kids?, Jetix, Disney Channel/ XD, and Family Channel, where all the good stuff was as the main channels were slowly but surely being taken over by the drop quality of shows. Though Nicktoons would be the place I saw Yakkity, I had to be 7 or 6.
    I only have a still image in my head of him talking to the pineapple. Nothing else, just that still quick image. I’ve recently rediscovered it and love it! The voices, writing, or anything negative for that matter, I don’t recognize. So I enjoy seeing what people whoever were consious during those times and watched it, thought I’d the show. Makes me a little envious of the golden age y’all got to experience better than I did.
    But Hey, it’s better than what we have today. Thank you for reading this long jumble of words.

    You nailed it. I barely remember this cartoon, although the setting and characters feel incredibly familiar. It also makes me feel nostalgic. Not for the show itself, but the early 2000s, when there were dozens of new cartoons competing against each other and most were at the very least somewhat entertaining.
