I’m glad you pointed out that musical theme before the Ukulele song. It’s lived rent free in my head for years! Also I’d say the pursuit of Catdog seeking their “paradise” in a dump is pretty romantic, no? Romance doesn’t always mean a love between two people. It can also refer to the love for an idea.
The ending where Cat and Dog were somehow on top of a billboard in the middle of the sky after falling down a cliff isn't something I understood as a kid. As an adult, it takes on a far darker meaning.
For some reason the "eye of the sweeper" scene creeped me out as a kid, too. The creepy dark background and minimal colors, the lack of sound other than whistling wind, Cat's eerie whispering... Spooooooky.
Winslow is so unlikable its crazy. Usually these small side character animals are nice and also adorable and sympathetic, like Jerry. But Winslow just sucks
Winslow refused to rescue CatDog when they were stranded on an island in the middle of a busy highway, and he was selling everything in CatDog's house for a yard sale.
never understood this episode when I was a kid,never really understood it as an adult ethier but a few things,this is alot darker than I've ever thought it was
This was easily one of the best episodes of CatDog ever made, but nothing beats It's a Wonderful Half-Life. Here's a fun fact: In an interview, casting supervisor Lisa Kossey said that she'll find herself singing Pretty Little Piece of Paradise anytime she hears the word "paradise". Imagine being like that yourself.
If we’re talking gross-out: in the catdog universe Dog literally eats garbage and i dont mean junk food. In some episodes, mounds of garbage is dipicted as piles of greenish or brownish slop with familiar garbage items poking out (apple cores, tin cans, bones etc.) and dog just gobbles it up much to cats disgust
Yay! More Catdog! I remember this episode. It kinda gave me an eerie feeling of isolation and me later not liking long car trips! Happy Thanksgiving! I was here at 50K! Hope you and your family have a good one! 🦃 (Also @13:50 hey, I was born at an apartment building literally next to the highway and see it still each time we drive by so I know exactly what you mean!)
Happy Thanksgiving week to you, Shawn! 🦃 Hope you and your family enjoy a wonderful time of good company, good food and thank you, sincerely, for all the hard work you put into these videos! We give thanks for you and your content. ❤😊
Ive got a thought about this episode. Not about CatDog and thier misadventure on thier island, but the cars continiously driving around it. Throught the episode, the constant barrage of cars keeps driving around that same garbage heap. A lot of cars surround the incoming circle honking. But why? How long have the drivers been waiting, dining on fast foods and water while they wait to enter the circle and never leave?
Wow! I never knew Derek Drymon even wrote for CatDog brilliant discovery as always Shawn! Also brilliant religious war allegory to read into episode of CatDog Shawn. I never would have thought to look at it that way. Though personally I think that billboard in the sky at the end of the episode could very well be a metaphor for them reaching Heaven at the end after they truly did die from their escapades.
New subscriber here! I’ve been watching your content for a couple of months, and I enjoy every one I’ve seen so far. Keep up the good work! Plus, I love the giraffe.❤ One of my favorite animals since childhood(90’s kid).
This episode was funny it kind of reminds me of space madness ren and stimpy but with a very creative twist without the aggressive movements of Ren n Stimpy
Personally I really enjoy cat dog but I know some people who are not bands especially parents so it’s interesting getting your perspective considering that you are a parent now keep doing what you’re doing and while we’re at it happy Thanksgiving
Happy harvest shawn!! I hope tomorrow is well for you! I finally got to make some music a few days ago and im back recording some sounds today. Its never too late to begin making music, i remember you bringing up that you wish you would have. I personally am here to say that i would listen for sure, and if you ever need help with it. Ive been doing it for 12 years im always open to help anyone
From “Sumo Enchanted Evening” Cat: We can’t just sit here eating fish, pork and beef! Dog: We can’t? Cat: NO! *We need side dishes too.* They’re two halves of a whole idiot.
Since you're talking about CatDog might I suggest you cover full moon I think that's the name of the episode it's the best episode of CatDog in my opinion I could be wrong but I personally love that episode it's amazing second only TV Halloween episode did you get the opportunity to talk about closest and episodes even if it is it spooky season
You talked about the show’s intro but have you ever listened to the full 2 minute theme? Cause another chorus is 'Nothin’ in tha world like a little CatDog'
I guess this happened canonically before they got their drivers license, but given Cat's blatan disregard for rules of the road in this episode I doubt that even in there car the same thing would probably happen.
I found the whole concept of CatDog disturbing. The Scientifically Accurate parody said it best: "Reverse Human Centipede with a cat and a dog." How do CatDog's digestive organs work? If one of them eats, does the other shit out of his mouth? Do they even have digestive organs? How are they even alive? I know you aren't supposed to think about it, but that only makes you think about it even more.
I do have nigtmares about being on freeways one end it ere me snd my mom werr going off a unfinished rode into tht sea i said this it! And my dream ended it like that.
I almost completely forgot about Pretty Little Piece of Paradise. And yeah, this episode DOES feel like a prototype Rock Bottom. This episode DID come out like a year before that one. I didn't remember the romance beat (does anyone know where it is besides this and episodes?) or it being tied to romantic situations. But it works in the sense of romance relating to adventures (if you've read/watched One Piece, you likely know what I'm getting at). At any rate, it was fun seeing this episode again, and I DID see it in a way I didn't back in the 90s.
Hey Shawn, you're one of my favorite creators. I know it's probably too late this year, but please consider not celebrating Thanksgiving moving forward. It's a day of mourning for our indigenous brothers and sisters. I won't go into my whole schpiel here, but just please consider it.
John 14:6 (KJV) Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.Repent for The Kingdom of Heaven is near, believe on The Lord Jesus Christ, God revealed in the flesh, who died on the cross and rose again on the third day to to save you from your sins and the judgement for it, which is hell which we all deserve, but while we were yet sinners Christ died for us, believe on Him ans who He is, get baptized in The name of The Father and of The Son and of The Holy Ghost, recieve The Holy Ghost and walk in God's will for you.
Fun fact: the plot of this episode is taken from a science fiction novel by J.G. Ballard called 'Concrete Island.'
Jim Cummings and Tom Kenny are one of the best comedic duos in voice-acting!
Right along with Maurice LeMarche and Rob Paulson
Don't forget Peter Culling and Frank Welker
I agree with this
Their voices, chemistry and comedic timing are just spot on.
I’m glad you pointed out that musical theme before the Ukulele song. It’s lived rent free in my head for years! Also I’d say the pursuit of Catdog seeking their “paradise” in a dump is pretty romantic, no?
Romance doesn’t always mean a love between two people. It can also refer to the love for an idea.
8:47 “Eat…the dog.”
Cat: “Yes, Mister.”
Pure craziness! 🤣🤣
The ending where Cat and Dog were somehow on top of a billboard in the middle of the sky after falling down a cliff isn't something I understood as a kid. As an adult, it takes on a far darker meaning.
That they're dead?
Happy thanksgiving to my favorite giraffe 🦒
For some reason the "eye of the sweeper" scene creeped me out as a kid, too. The creepy dark background and minimal colors, the lack of sound other than whistling wind, Cat's eerie whispering... Spooooooky.
17:12 Shawn just looking for a reason to play some metal 😂
This episode horrified me as a kid, to think an episode as screwed up as this wouldn’t register with a kid is nuts
Winslow is so unlikable its crazy. Usually these small side character animals are nice and also adorable and sympathetic, like Jerry. But Winslow just sucks
Then again, Jerry isn’t nice all the time
Winslow refused to rescue CatDog when they were stranded on an island in the middle of a busy highway, and he was selling everything in CatDog's house for a yard sale.

Looking back, CatDog was an oddly dystopian show for its time. Good things almost never happened to them, like ever.
I feel sorry for them.
Same with Guapo and Fraz.
Happy thanksgiving!
I hope everyone’s holiday goes well tomorrow!
Stay safe
Thanks, friend! Happy Thanksgiving to you as well :D
I hope you have an excellent day.
Most of the time when I was watching this show, I was just mentally screaming “DANG IT, CATDOG!”
13:10 Unexpected GTA reference 😁

Just so you know, youre NOT the only one who has that freeway dream! It recurs for me every once in a while. Extremely stressful dream.
I do love that Dog was very supportive of giving Cat a good vacation x3
Also Happy Thanksgiving, Shawn!
Ah, this is the episode I remember the most. I thought it was parodying Castaway, but it was the lord of the flies.
Considering it aired two years before Castaway was even released…..
Yay! More Catdog! I remember this episode. It kinda gave me an eerie feeling of isolation and me later not liking long car trips!
Happy Thanksgiving! I was here at 50K! Hope you and your family have a good one! 🦃
(Also @13:50 hey, I was born at an apartment building literally next to the highway and see it still each time we drive by so I know exactly what you mean!)

Thanks so much, friend!!!! I hope you and your family have a fantastic Thanksgiving as well
I WAS EATING A HOTDOG, WHILE I WAS WATCHING CATDOG!
... Please laugh...
I gotta go back and rewatch some CatDog after this!

Ive been doing it for 12 years im always open to help anyone
Best Giraffe discusses DogCat
I'm totally here for the philosophical discussion of catdog auto-cannibalism. (In all honesty though, another great essay steeped in 90s nostalgia)
Shawn I didn't have to think about it... I have been subscribed since the Dark Side of Hey Arnold episodes
I love what you did with that intro music!!! Super creepy! 😅
Happy Thanksgiving Eve to you Shawn, thanks for the video
Thanks so much, friend! I hope you have a fantastic Thanksgiving
Maaate, This show was insane!!!
Less goo! Love your videos man!!
Happy Thanksgiving Day, DuskTilShawn!! 🥧🦃🍰😝😆🤣
Happy Thanksgiving Shawn & family!
There's a similar Brothers Flub episode "Just Desert" where Fraz, Guapo, and Valerina get stranded on a desert planet.
this episode to my mind at least reminds me of JD Ballard's novella Concrete Island
Looking back on it, I now wish this show had lasted longer.
Happy thanksgiving ❤
I'm glad it wasn't lost to the nickelodeon graveyard.
And I thought that cat was the responsible one
From “Sumo Enchanted Evening”
Cat: We can’t just sit here eating fish, pork and beef!
Dog: We can’t?
Cat: NO!
*We need side dishes too.*
They’re two halves of a whole idiot.
Good lord. The freeway looks like its from New York AND LA
Since you're talking about CatDog might I suggest you cover full moon I think that's the name of the episode it's the best episode of CatDog in my opinion I could be wrong but I personally love that episode it's amazing second only TV Halloween episode did you get the opportunity to talk about closest and episodes even if it is it spooky season
Full Moon Fever is one of my first and one of my favorites!
So this is where spongebob got the idea from 😂😂
It was even an episode of Squirrel Boy
I remember this one!!!!
27:54 Could be only AFTER the fall they were so far, not before it. Don't forget verticality.
Yes sir we are all first how you doing dusktillshawn hope all is well happy early thanks giving how you doing hope your good is everything ok
Hey, man! Good to hear from ya! :D
I'm doing good. Just focusing on some family time! How have you been?
I hope you have an awesome Thanksgiving!!
You talked about the show’s intro but have you ever listened to the full 2 minute theme? Cause another chorus is 'Nothin’ in tha world like a little CatDog'
Why was cat dog not in there car like we now they have a car
Right? lol That would have saved them from SO MUCH trouble hahaha.
I guess this happened canonically before they got their drivers license, but given Cat's blatan disregard for rules of the road in this episode I doubt that even in there car the same thing would probably happen.
Ironic how it's Cat who gets the two in trouble this time around here.
I found the whole concept of CatDog disturbing. The Scientifically Accurate parody said it best: "Reverse Human Centipede with a cat and a dog."
How do CatDog's digestive organs work? If one of them eats, does the other shit out of his mouth? Do they even have digestive organs? How are they even alive? I know you aren't supposed to think about it, but that only makes you think about it even more.
Didn’t know Catdog were driving through Dallas by those freeways
Me sees cat dogs overpass nightmare
Me: oh cat dogs in texas
I do have nigtmares about being on freeways one end it ere me snd my mom werr going off a unfinished rode into tht sea i said this it! And my dream ended it like that.
Happy thanksgiving!
Shouldn't the cars have run out of gas?
I'm guessing the police got them off that billboard.
I almost completely forgot about Pretty Little Piece of Paradise.
And yeah, this episode DOES feel like a prototype Rock Bottom. This episode DID come out like a year before that one.
I didn't remember the romance beat (does anyone know where it is besides this and episodes?) or it being tied to romantic situations. But it works in the sense of romance relating to adventures (if you've read/watched One Piece, you likely know what I'm getting at).

Dog tried to eat Cat three times in this show!
If that’s not shocking, then I don’t know what is.
you should cover the episode where dog steals cats brain
Why did Cat dive into water? He hates water!
Also if you could, please review some Brothers Flub episodes.
Please review more CatDog episodes.
Cat dog was always my least favorite show. Anyone else share that sentiment?
Praise be the Algorithm
Was this on cn? Never saw that
Nickelodeon
Have you watched mtv downtown
HI HO DIGGTY!!!!!
