Angela Anaconda Was Weird: Over Hated & Underrated | Billiam

- Опубліковано 29 чер 2020
- Angela Anaconda was a show that ran on Canada's Teletoon from 1999-2001. Despite being remembered as a hated show, it was actually pretty successful, with three seasons, merchandise, and being run on several different American networks. Nowadays, Angela Anaconda is remembered primarily through its appearance in the Digimon Movie. WHAT WAS UP WITH THAT? AngelaMon? WEIRD! But like- I kinda like the show, though :(

the catholic school girl character hits different after 10+ years of catholic school
Holy 4kids One Piece edits Bootlegman... didn't expect to see one of my other favs as I scroll the comments.
She reminds me of Momoko.
IKR? I really hope they got a joke about Vatican II in there somewhere.
oh hai
Real talk, atheist now but I was that bizarrely religious child growing up, turns out I just was really into the lore lmfao
The show's aesthetic reminded me of those missing kids on the sides of milk cartons
This show's aesthetic reminds me of Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines because everyone has ash grey skin like they're walking corpses.
Yes!! You put a name on it!
That’s where they got the kids faces from lol
Where did you think they went
@@Roccosfilms free money!!
Fun fact: Angela Anaconda is one of Rika Matsumoto's (aka JPN Ash Ketchum) few Western cartoon dubbing roles she's had. She's been proud of the show to this day.
That is so awesome! I never thought that this show would air in Japan, so that’s really cool! :D

Japan : Satoshi and japanese pokemon names.
@@scavorthespacecowboy2096 Same name in a different language? I didn’t know Ash was another word for knowledge and wisdom. 😂
"The naked man"?
He's The Flesh, plebeian. He's super strong, and super naked.
I *heard* that.
God, _Action League Now!_ was so good.
Do you remember "My life with Loopy"?
Prometheus and Bob anyone?
You are some dope people
I hated this show as a kid despite never watching it. I can see the appeal now. Enjoyed the video!
thank you peanut man
Hi peebs
Sounds like a must watch if PBG thought it was good
Yus the Peanutbutters been converted
PBG watches Billiam?
What is this, a crossover episode?
Honestly, if you were a kid stuck in an unfair situation (favoritism, bullying, abuse, not fitting in, etc.), then Angela's revenge fantasies may very well have been cathartic to watch. You might even see yourself in Angela, because you channeled your own frustration in much the same way. People calling the show "mean-spirited and ugly" due to Angela's dreams of taking Nanette down a peg forget that some kids do, in fact, get really, really angry, and their imagination may very well be the first and best safe outlet they have. (That, or they *were* the Nanette and feel attacked. In which case, cry me a river.)
Around the time I noticed hate for this show (that I never saw) getting popular to share, the people who reviewed cartoons tended to have two flaws... One was to nitpick or maximize issues to make their opinion look more valid; the other was a puritan-esque angle where 'mean-spirited' was a literal buzzword-phrase. Anything where characters were caused misfortune or had ill will wished upon them, no matter the circumstances, had big potential to be called 'mean-spirited' by some over-sensitive reviewers who probably forgot how fun a little harmless wish-fulfillment like that could be as a kid. Aside from weebs in general, I'm guessing the non-weeb hate-boner stemmed from there.
well said
I was and I hated this show, Angela was just as much of a bully as the other kids. There’s nothing endearing about it.
It's a little similar to Diary of a Wimpy Kid. Kids like that book so much because it presents the adolescent world in an almost cynical fashion. Adults like to think kids are more innocent than they really are. Of course kids have revenge fantasies where they somehow also become popular in school. Kids can be very envious without realizing it.
That being said, I still think Angela Anaconda is very hard to relate to as a kid simply because of the art style, their manner of speech, and comparatively boring premise.
That was certainly my personal experience with the show! While I don’t really think I knew at the time what was going on, looking back through an adult lens, I’m certain the show helped me deal with certain situations and feelings that I couldn’t quite place or put a name to as a child. You know those feelings of frustration at being deemed a social outcast and taking your resentment out on the one who seems to be upholding that social construct because it’s easier to comprehend and be angry at a bully than it is a larger power structure at play.
And I know my parents never took my complaints of bullying at school very seriously. Not only was having a show where a little girl was going through something similar as me nice, but her little fantasies were, as you pointed out, cathartic. I do find it interesting, and very telling, that people think Angela’s revenge fantasies are “mean and ugly” and seem to have no critique of Nanette’s bullying, which wasn’t fantasy in the show. And as we all know bullying can have lasting, life-long effects. 🤔
I loved how weird and surreal and unsettling this show was as a teen. This and Kablam felt like a fever dream as a child. It was all amazing and beautiful in the most chaotic way.
this so hits the nail on its head.
*"You heard that summer wars? Angela Anaconda did it first"*
How could you say something so cursed and yet so boldly true
I've seen Summer Wars, but I don't get this reference. Is it a Digimon thing? Or a repurposing thing he's referring to?
@@Drake13000 Basically, the guy who directed "Our War Game", the segment of the digimon movie with Diaboromon, took the basic premis and overall style he used for that movie and expanded it into it's own full length anime film (with all references to digimon removed) called Summer Wars.
@@mwedreitheshadow I’ve seen Summer Wars but never knew any of that!
Finally I will have someone recognize my 500k word Angela/Nanette enemies to lovers college AU fanfiction
You cannot be serious
Send me this, I need to read that immediately
Link it to us because why not
please update i need this
u really about to say this and not drop the link
This show felt like a fever dream because almost no one ever remembered it except when it involved the Digimon movie. I would usually skip the opening because it was too weird. I liked the intro before Digimon and some of the show as a kid, but overall i barely remember anything about it. It's very uncanny looking. I will admit the style is unique.
Agreed. The aesthetic is definitely an interesting one, but the show didn't make enough of an impact for me to really remember anything but the visuals.
I literally only remember the short before digimon. The movie theatre one.
Opposite for me, because I only learned today about the Digimon short.
Angela's revenge fantasy segments have the same sort of energy as the execution sequences in Dangan Ronpa, and I kinda dig it.
Enoshima Junko is a fan of the show CONFIRMED.
Is that why I loved Danganronpa so much?!
why does DR follow me every video i watch
@@apersonontheinternet7607 Just wait until JoJo's arrives somehow
Honestly at this point i'm almost pissed that this game seems to follow me everywhere. I love Danganronpa, but I swear it all comes back to it, and I have no clue why
This show is an excellent example of Canadian television: If it's good people won't notice it's Canadian. If it's weird, people will look into it and find out it's Canadian. Thus the idea that Canadian shows are weird is born.
Also, I did watch this show on Teletoon as a kid and even then I could not decide if I loved or hated it or wanted to wipe it from my brain and regain my innocence. It didn't help that the intro song was annoying and got stuck in my head all the time.
It's like going back to Are You Afraid of the Dark and hearing everybody say "Soarry!" all the time. You don't notice it unless you look for it but there it is.
In the immortal words of Ed: "Canadians are weird!"
@Cat Vaper I'm still mad at Mainframe for leaving Reboot on a cliffhanger.
Don't worry as a Canadian most of our good shows were weird fever dreams but the good kinds of weird fever dreams. Also Canada takes no responsibility for the voice acting in Spiderriders, but we are proud of the genuinely beautiful and alien landscapes and amazing opening that that show features
Totally appreciate you trying to defend Canadian animation, but as a Canadian - there's something in the water. We have too many weird showz
The day after I'm told about how this show possibly destroyed a marriage, I'm shown this video.
@Obsidius Nightbrother Someone posted on 4Chan that this helped ruin a marriage (not that the series itself was the main reason, it was more that it was the straw on the camel's back.) You could probably look up the video on the subject itself, but the post hasnt exactly been verified as it's basically just an internet post that was made during the airing of the show.
@@dustyhistory it's actually in the video if you watch the whole thing
@@dustyhistory > believing anything on 4chan
Seeing how this show ruined my life, it ruining a marriage is understandable.
@@dustyhistory
Based on the story the anon posted, the marriage was already in a rough course to begin with. I don't know, but I think watching a movie isn't going to help the situation anyway. Still funny, though.
My god... the catholic girl is a prototype Momoko from Ghost Stories dub.
She fucking is, isn't she?
That line about loving the frog cookies (or whatever they were) because of them being a plague? that was hialrious and 100% something Momoko in the ghost stories dub would've said.
That one girl with glasses from a hentai manga God bless your soul!
Also, Mr. and Ms. Brinks are literally the "yes honey" meme

Oh my gosh, a “See you in my revenge fantasies” T-shirt, I want one.
“Hey why don’t you use your mitt”
“Uhh because mines right handed and uh this is a bird”
“Oh ok”
I only watched like three episodes but how could anyone hate it? That was hilarious
That sent me
As a kid I looked at this as 'The South Park I was allowed to watch'. So naturally, I liked it.
I really liked the show as a kid it was honestly my favourite
@@JazzStation95 lolll so true
Did u feel like a tough cookie
I watched SP w/out anyone knowing about it, so I have no idea how you felt. However, I can see why you felt that way. 😆
I like how almost everytime a character is talking, the music fits with the characters motif. Like with Nanette and the Catholic girl
This show's artstyle freaked me out so much as a kid that I'd get literal panic attacks when it came on TV
10 out of 10
Lol same!
Lmao same I got traumatized and literally ran to my room!!! 💀💀💀🤣🤣🤣
the art style triggered my fight or flight - my throat would get tight and i would feel like it was hard to breathe. 😰 really unsettled me.
the art style reminds me of dead body reconstruction sketches, so i easily understand why everyone feared this show as a kid
I had a hard time seeing the reason why people disliked this show, i remember enjoying it as a kid! This video woke up so many memories buried deep in me. Great video!
Same here!!! I can’t believe it was twenty years ago now 😨😨😨
My guess is that people retroactively hated it because a few youtubers said so. In reality, people who actually watched it are already quite old (relative to most teenagers and people on their early 20s), and most haters probably were too young and only can vaguely remember the uncanny look of the characters (similar to how I barely remember Bump in the Night, despite my older brother telling me we watched it almost daily).
@@parrata I didn't need youtubers to tell me I didn't like the show. Something about the revenge fantasies always made me feel uncomfortable and the voices drove me insane.
Same, I saw this video's thumbnail and remembered the character also remembered watching it, but I didn't remember hating it despite the characters looks not being my favorite.
Yep that theme song reminded me of changing the channel. As much as this video is praising it so much, I still don't like the show. It feels just so lame and unfunny to me, not to mention the voices and characters are pretty annoying
I loved Angela Anaconda and had no idea anyone hated it .__. it was one of those kids shows that treated kids as little adults learning about life rather than plain stupid or twee. I also was one of the only non-religious kids in a very religious school growing up, who was treated unfairly by teachers because of this (and the fact I came from a poorer background and very young parents, when most of the kids in my school were wealthy middle-class) I related SO MUCH to Angela.
That was a very sweet sentiment at the end. It spoke a lot to me when she said she was greatful to have the opportunity to act like herself rather than be forced into a image expected of her.
Honestly this hit the hardest out of all the pride month videos I watched this year.
One time when I went camping as a child, the people in the campsite next to us had kids. They had a young daughter that would scream and cry until they put on the Angela Anaconda theme song, which to me was very strange as the show hadn't been on the air in some time. This was also during a time where mp3s weren't as popular, which means one of the parents had to burn the theme song onto a CD-R and keep it with them at all times.
I watched every episode of this show AS A TEENAGER and still forgot about its existence.... it was a fascination then, it's a fascination now, and there will never be another show like it. Thank you for bringing this back to the forefront of my memory.
After looking into it, the show used an outdated software that can no longer be used with modern computers. It was amazing to find that they photographed the model’s lip movements for every potential syllable to animate the characters speaking.
It’s too bad the model didn’t like the show afterwards.
I really wish I had watched this more as a kid! The chilled-out, down-to-earth tone; the wide vocabulary of the kids, and expressing childlike feelings in mature sentences; the slightly off-the-wall characters like Josephine who lend themselves to some quite edgy satire for a kids' show - it gives me the same feeling that teenage me had when I discovered Daria.
Honestly you'd probably dig Pepper Ann as well if that's the case, for something more traditionally animated and with slightly older (middle school) characters. The writing on P.A. is extremely smart and it has similar vibes to A.A. with different but still equally quirky characters.
This is a relatable mood.
@@LeoMidori You probably already know, but just in case you don't Pepper Ann and Angela Anaconda were both created by Sue Rose. She was also the creator of UnFabulous. So she gave us three great shows with funny, dorky female leads. Those three shows are a huge part of my and my sisters' childhoods.
@@Aster_Risk Partially why I mentioned it~ she also co created the advertisement character Fido Dido for 7UP and his own merch in the early 90's!
@@Aster_Risk I did not know that and now I'm going to go binge watch AA, PA and UF - thank you!
I never understood the hate for this show. I used to watch this as a kid and thought it was funny af. It never creeped me out. I even know the intro by heart.
I hate this show like how I hate the cats movie.
@@RiseUpToYourAbility explain
I never got it either, I just thought the show was alright.
@@liothelion8737 Have you heard of the uncanny valley? We can emotionally relate to things that are either clearly human or very unclearly human (like simba from the lion king) However there is this weird middle ground where the characters are human but not quite. Cats falls in this category and so does Angela. The face is completely human but the rest of the body is a cartoon.
@@RiseUpToYourAbility Its weird, because I have that problem with Cats, and a lot of similar cases, like the Christmas Carol of 2009 and The Polar Express, but not with this show 🤷♀️
I always loved Angela Anaconda and PepperAnn. I loved seeing other types of girls featured. I should have known there was a queer creative force at their core. :) I grew up knowing feeling out of place. I knew I wasn’t interested in boys (or boy crazy) like the usual girl media images depicted. I didn’t have a close group of female friends. I wasn’t interested in fashion or makeup. I later came to understand that I’m queer... that I wasn’t broken for not romantically liking boys or feeling uncomfortable in a dress. Even though they weren’t gay characters, these shows portrayed variety and difference. There are lots of ways to be you, and that’s okay. I’m glad that’s a message I had as a young person through media like this. I will certainly check out the UA-cam interview - thanks for highlighting that! I haven’t gone through too much of your content yet, so you may have already covered Home Movies. If not, you would probably really like this animated series. :)
FINALLY some praise for Angela Anaconda! I ADORED this show growing up but everyone on the internet was always hating on it, and I just couldn't see why!
2020:
Plagues = Eh
Riots in the Streets = Eh
Global Warming = Eh
Politics = Eh
Angela Aneconda = I see you've chosen death.
XD
I remember this show fondly, it was aired on the saturday morning, followed by code lyoko and naruto, of all things. Its weird hearing it in english. I once blew off my friends invitation to go play outside, cus I was watching Angela, and it took him like 5 years to stop giving me shit about it. Idc, great show.
U watched it on Ultra by any chance?
Damn, Code Lyoko was an amazing show too, the mistery and action sequences were the best, I find it hard to watch it because of the asthetics too like this one 😅
this is so weird! Cause I was raised on Angela Anaconda but Naruto came to be a lot of years later, I remember even seeing it as "I think Im too old for this"
@@frankulives5932 I watched it on Ultra XD.
I remember as a kid hating this show, and then one day it clicked for me and I loved it. It's super artistic and smart, and the sort of feelings it leaves you with are maybe a bit more complex than a kid can handle. It's a very ironic show where the narrator isn't entirely reliable or infallible.
Dude, it’s not that Deep
I actually picked up “on account of” as a kid, on account of this show.
when i was little, my big brother told me that the show stole the faces of the children who watched it so i had to be careful. then he sat on me and forced me to watch it while i was terrified to lose my face. siblings are the best lol
I only remember it from that 4chan story about a kid whose parents divorced when they watched the Angela Anaconda short for the Digimon movie.
Also imagine a reboot that interpreted the grey skins as having the show take on a 1930’s cartoon artstyle.
>4chan story about a kid who's parents divorced when they watched the Angela Anaconda short for the Digimon Movie
That's a new one. Please, tell me more.
@@Idunno-b8g it's literally in the video
I loved Angela Anaconda as a kid!! I love the contrived way they spoke and the creative style and the underdog cheeky main character and the tomboyishness she implied by hating the posh and the feminine. And the way they always used people's full names 😂 I had no idea people hated this show, it played every afternoon on ABC in Australia
"I love Bob and hot chocolate" brought back a distant childhood memory I didn't know I had. 😂
I completely forgot about this show but I think I liked it.
I thought that Angela wanted to spend the night at Johnny's house cuz he had racecar beds...but the bunk beds made it twice as more realistic of a kid's adamant reasoning.
It was probably a mix of both
HAHAAHH i thought because she liked him xD
welcome to another episode of "Series i thought were a weird dream i had once"
It's been a while since I last saw that image you have as your profile picture.
Angela Anaconda actually gave me so much serotonin. I saw a clip on tiktok and I had to look up videos about it. I loved how weird she was and this literally unlocked a whole memory.
I loved how angela had a dog that wore a bandana and was called “king” but actually was a girl dog
And Nanette's dog was a girly-looking poodle named Ooh La La but it was a male.
I read a romance novel where the male protagonist has a dog named buster
But, it's a girl
My aunt has a dog named pudding
Which is a girl, but looks very masculine
You should check out Sabrina: The Animated Series. It was a fun, weird take on the Sabrina the Teenage Witch comic. It also had a really cool art style.
The one episode I do remember of this is one where one of Sabrina's friends kept beating arcade games so his mom got him an unbeatable arcade game so Sabrina had to find a way to get him out of it. The show was nuts.
That shit was good
@@Manbarrican The one I remember the most is the one where Sabrina and Harvey are running around a museum trying to catch these kids they were babysitting. Good times lol
I loved that as a kid, and I just recently re-watched it on UA-cam. Still fairly enjoyable as an adult
One of the best witch cartoons ever!!!
I personally enjoyed the show as a kid when it appeared.
I never knew it was hated till four years ago on Tumblr.
This hatred dumbfounded me.
It makes sense if you think about it. The show was about loving yourself for who you are, and everyone on Tumblr hates themselves.
Me too! I loved the show as a kid, I didn't know anyone who watched it, and I was surprised about the hatred! I mean, lokking back as an adult I can see that the style is a bit weird, but I never minded as a kid. It was part of the appeal for me! It was one of the only things I saw as a kid with such an unique style of animation.
It was just too off-putting as a kid and on a television program full of anime.
yeah I liked it at the time
I never knew people like it. I didn't find out until a few weeks ago.
The love for the show dumbfounded me
Angela Anaconda was one of my favourite shows as a kid, it aired a lot here in Australia. I used to get it's name mixed up with Angelina Ballerina which was one of my other favourite shows. 😂
Would it make you life if I told you the creator/VA for Angela played a character in Totally Spies named...Angelina? XD
Australian TV always picks out those weird Canadian cartoons. When I was young I assumed it was all American, but now I know we have Canada to thank for this 🥲
YOU JUST REMINDED ME OF ANGELINA BALLERINA
I cannot stress this enough - I loved Angela Anaconda when I was a kid. Absolutely lurrrrrved that show. The art style, the weird character quirks, the almost pointless story-lines... it was like someone took all these crazy, "bad-on-paper" ideas, put them into one show, and somehow made magic. To this day I'm actually kinda shocked when people tell me they don't like it.
I remember loving the show as a child. Then when people on the internet started to throw shade on it I was confused. I haven´t seen the show on almost two decades, but even the digimon sketch I thought was a pleasant surprise.
Me too!! It was literally my favourite show I was genuinely shocked to find out people hated it
Yeah, I enjoyed the show when it aired, & never understood where the haters were coming from. Unelss they're just hatin' on Nanette Manoir.

Angela Anaconda was one of my favourite show growing up and I'm so surprised to hear that people didn't like it. What? Did you guys not have a sense of humour growing up, damn.
Thank you for making this. It is one of my all time favorite shows, and I've literally NEVER heard a good thing about it from anybody else who remembers.
i loved this show. i"ll never forget accidentally recording over one of my dad's episodes of star trek with this show. it's fine, i hid the tape.
God I hope your dad find out just because I want to watch his face
Angela Anaconda: That show you probably only remembered because it played before the digimon movie
And it caused a divorce
Nathaniel Foga !
Caddicarus will have his revenge
Thanks for repeating what's said in the video we just watched
Exactly why I clicked
you know what these faces remind me of? missing people drawings.
Now you've said it I see it too!
I can certainly say, having this as my favorite show growing up influenced me greatly. I did always get picked on for being myself and certainly wasn't afraid to be exceptionally strange. It also influenced my vocabulary quite a lot but this show really was and still is important to me.
My name is Angela - this show first aired when I was in elementary school, imagine how many times I got called Angela Anaconda 🙃. I never watched a single episode because I was so annoyed by it 😂
Me: why was this show so weird!
Billian: it was made in Canada.
Me: that explains everything
Teletoon: releasing questionable content for over 30 years
Canada is the place where all B-grade cartoons emerge from.
"Canadians are weird!"
We apologize for being unapologetically ourselves.Sorry.
@@tornadodee148 It's a quote from Ed, Edd, N' Eddy, a show that was made in Canada.
10:47
"Well some of the slapstick is great, particularly listening to Nanette Manoire yell in pain."
I know I shouldn't like her yells, but god dammit the VA is doing an amazing job there.
I have been in love with this cartoon since its debute on Fox Family. Angela Anaconda's writing is brilliant, hilarious & the art style is so unique & wacky. Watching reuploaded episodes on UA-cam in recent years has given me a new appreciation for it.
Petition for Billiam to stop smiling into the camera bc I'm starting to find him attractive and I don't wanna accept that.
It's too late
He looks like my us history teacher and it’s weird. 😂
Don't resist, just embrace it.
Honestly my thirst is like 20% of my enjoyment of these vids.
@@user-jn1wm3tb8v I felt that
Colorizing the characters in the intro remake makes in 10x better already.
Bro, I felt like I was the only human on this planet that LOVED this show. As a kid my siblings and I just adored it, and we couldn't help but lose it over Angela's fantasies about her nemesis. Rewatching it again, it's just all the funnier, and I can even appreciate how hilariously odd it just is. Also, as someone who also went to a catholic school, that Catholic girl hit home in a way it shouldn't have.
I remember reading the book versions of some of these episodes in elementary school, and I loved them. The show worked surprisingly worked in a book format!
When i was a kid i called it the anne frank show
LMFAOOOOOO 😭
I kinda get it
I totally never thought of Angela Anaconda outside of that one Digimon short but now I'm totally regretting it. Joanna Ferrone seems like such a cool person, I think I'd really like to check it out now.
I didn't either but I found a youtube collection of every Angela Anaconda episode & watched them. Loved it!
What a nostalgia hit! I loved this show! I even had the book "Families and How to Survive Them". My favourite episode was the one where Angela was getting teased for not wearing the right colour but then it turned out that she was wearing a reversible jacket. Anyone else remember that one?
Finally a positive review about this show!!! I WAS OBSESSED WITH IT AS A KID... I have a very blurry memory of it but your video made me want to re-watch it as an adult!!!
Honestly, this show gives me big "Making Fiends" energy, which was another show that came later. Haven't verified, but it definitely sounds like there's a large overlap of voice talent here. If there's not, the general direction definitely took some ques I think.
Yeah, I kinda see that
So apparently that show was made by one of the episode directors of Bojack Horseman.
I love this show. Angela felt like a genderswapped version of myself. I learned English more by reading and watching movies rather than conversing with people, and I got made fun of for that when I immigrated. Angela spoke that way! And she looked like me too! I love the sense of humor. One of the smallest dissapointments in my adult life is that my wife dislikes the character.
I am both a digimon and Angela anaconda fan and I have to say that short in the digimon movie is an affront to both cartoons and I do not blame anyone for getting the wrong impression.
hi, Billiam; i wanna thank you for awakening the memory of this particular series. before this vid, i recalled seeing bits and pieces and i couldn't remember if it was real or some thing i had dreamed up or w/e. going back to it, i realized how much i love it and watch it kinda often now. thanks! ♥
Fantastic video. While I won’t say you have convinced me to go and watch this much-maligned series (just not the type of show to interest me), I definitely feel like I’ve gained a better appreciation and understanding of the show and its direction. You very clearly do get what the show wanted to do, and express it very well.
Again, I won’t say I’ve been converted to a fan of Angela Anaconda by this video, but I love these kind of positive unpopular opinion pieces. We need more shit like this.
Fun fact : one season of the show is currently streaming for free, with ads, on Tubi
For anyone who wishes to give it a shot
Quick way to torture yourself
Or you can just find a playlist of THE WHOLE SERIES on UA-cam

@@christiancolon8748 did you not watch the video?
"It was weird, over hated, and under rated!" He will tell me.
When I was a kid...OMG I LOOOOVVVEEEDDDDDD this show.
Hearing you say people dont like it makes me sad.
Im so glad you covered this tho, I totally forgot about this absolute gem of a show!
I loved this show as a kid. I actually had a teacher who compared me to Angela in looks and imagination and that stuck with me forever.
i remember liking this show but i assumed i was just being a child w bad taste but it seems super charming ! i never rly thought it was creepy
What
This is one of our favorite show for me and my brother when we were kid. We just found the animation to be funny 😅
I see Flint the Time Detective and just appreciate that I'm not the only one who remembers it.
Blond James Marsden talking about Angela Anaconda, a show etched on my memory of my mom's night shifts watching cable has such a fever dream quality.
Angela anaconda was one of my favourite shows as a kid, it’s so well written.
i loved the heck out of this show since I was literally angela growing up, straight gingery hair, freckles, tomboy, ridiculous revenge fantasies for all that stood in my way, etc. this show is a gem
I'm from México and remember when I was a kid nobody liked this show because it looked so weird, but I gave it a chance and loved it
Haha amazing! I'm currently working on Joanna Ferrone's short documentary about her creating this show, with Sue Rose; I found out that they also created 7-Up mascot Fido Dido, too!
Great video and review! It's awesome to see someone actually taking a fair look at the show and realize its positive aspect instead of just bashing it like so many other reviewers. I personally loved the show as a kid.
THIS
I have always loved this show and no one ever took me seriously...
I will never forget Angela Anaconda on account of that being impossible. I loved it too much.
That short segment you showed of Ferrone, thank you for that. Billiam, you're a really good guy. Thank you for showing more fo Anegal Anaconda, I'm from Europe so I think I never saw this but it was really good to know it, showcased by you!
I liked this show as a kid. I remember seeing a "making of" commercial of it on Fox Kids and being amazed by the technology behind it, so I never had any trouble with the artstyle (ironically, seeing the kids with real skin colors feels weird).
I'm glad to see people giving the show a chance, it's nowhere near as bad as some make it out to be (although I can how the Digimon movie short could leave such a terrible first impression).
Tell me WHY Angela Anaconda was my favorite show when I was 9.

This show was honestly pretty funny to me! I mean as a kid I just literally watched whatever was on TV. I should also mention that in grade school. They played an angela anaconda halloween song 😶
Sis Im already 20 and it's stupid how much I laugh watching that again
Legitimately laughed out loud at, "This show has a BODY COUNT." I totally forgot about Angela Anaconda until I saw the thumbnail--thank you for making this video! :D
I was terrified of this show bc it was on tv when I was 2-3 years old. Legit thought it didn't actually exist for a long time & it was just a weird toddler-me fever dream
This video impacted me weirdly, literally got teary eyed watching it. Maybe it was from a swift whack of nostalgia but thank you so much for putting the time and effort into making it! Super appreciated!
P.S. I loved this show, i dunno why it gets/got so much hate
Probably Mr Enter, who did an Animated Atrocity on it , talked about an episode and didn’t really offer any good criticism of the show and just rehashed it’s ugly and acted like there was nothing good and the show was utter trash.
Mr enter is a truly toxic content creator and his fans just take whatever he’s saying as fact even though he can’t do a proper review on anything and just says what everyone else says without personal opinion
I loved the show as a kid and my friends thought it was funny.
The only thing I hate about this show is that the theme song still gets stuck in my head all these years later. Seriously, I was really surprised to find out as an adult that people hated Angela Anaconda! I remember being really into the weird and unique animation style as a kid, and I watched a lot of it. Thanks for covering it!
I remember this show so much! I’m so glad you did a video on this
Wow I forgot this show existed. There is a lot of weird interesting Canadian children's shows.
Honestly, I am so glad someone remembers this show in a fond way. Because I used to remember really liking this show because it looked so different and it was easy to watch. (In terms of content lol) So, thank you for not needlessly shitting on this show like everyone seemed too. 😌
This show was iconic. I literally sing the intro like once a week.
Ahh yes, I remember this show, I even memorized the show schedule just to avoid it completely. And for some reason I recognize most of the clips you showed :O
Finally, some one who actually gave the show a fair chance! used to like the show a lot when I was a kid, could really relate to Angela's character
When i was like 5 i thought this was canon in digimon
I've always liked this show, i don't know why it was so disliked.
Also, Nanette was such a Karen i swear.
It wouldn't surprise me if her real name was Karen.
@@JazzStation95 Not surprising.
Or as Nannette would say, a Káren
@@MaddyBird666Which is French for Karen.
This was on TV in my country when I was no longer the target audience. Sure the stereotypes were over the top. But it fit well with the crazy style. Still find the edited faces brillant. A show with positive messages without being preachy or sob and I think many kids could relate to Angela. And what an amazing name is Angela Anaconda!
Reminds me of the other fever dream that was Life With Loopy
