HEY ALL! I hope you guys are doing good. :) More shorts and other videos are coming, it’s just been taking a little longer than normal. Thanks for the constant support!
After watching one of the gardening with Argos episodes I developed a little head canon, basically after mark escaped billy, Argos found Mark and decided to take care of him for a few days before mark could finally reunite with his grandmother
me and my friends collectively agree granny fuzz is absolutely insane in a good way like she’s that cool grandma who gives you money does that make sense
Mark and Friends is honestly my favourite out of all the stories you’ve done (I love everything but I found you through this one lol) would you ever bring it back?
@@AshurGharavi fair enough. Honestly I interpreted it as he was knocked unconscious and would be hunting Mark down. In my head I guess I saw him as a “William Afton” type lol “I always come back” 😝 (Which…btw…dude your William Afton cosplay was so good)
@mischiefmanagedxx592 Ah that wouldn't really make sense tho cuz at the end of Mark and friends episodes there's a newspaper saying Billy hendricks is dead xd
@@mischiefmanagedxx592 you know it could be a serial killer copycat who was a big fan of Billy's work that's the only way I can imagine the series coming back.
@@siobhanreitz9351 Yeah, but it’d kind of be a drag on it, you know? I’m personally happy where it stopped, and I think that anything else would just be dragging onto the show.
Also my favorite character was probably cupcake monster (idk why the name just sounds funny) also the concept of his head getting chopped off, his body getting shipped back to his parents, and the mark being forced to eat his head is just so gruesome, it’s a miracle that TikTok let that slide even back then. Also love your videos Ashur! ❤
I feel like this would make an amazing graphic novel or comic book. My sister got me into all of your content when she loved weirdcore and even though I didn’t I loved your work. Thank you so much for such amazing content, your so incredibly talented!
Absolutely love Mark and Friends! I discovered it when it was already complete, so I got to binge it in a day! I love Mr. Plant, but I think Mark and Friends has to be my favorite work of yours.
@@L0lb1tt0 thank you! I made it myself! It’s my online persona as the yippee creature also known as the autism creature! I had thought of it awhile before I did it but I had looked at what it is and represents first so I waited until I was diagnosed. I knew I was on the spectrum, but it just felt wrong to make my profile picture me as the autism creature without a professional diagnosis if that makes sense
I remember binging through your videos and I found this series, for once it actually unsettled something deep inside me as- y’know being minor. I LOVE this series, and I’m so glad for this video!!!
Mark and friends was such a good series! So captivating and so disturbing! I felt discomfort watching it, and I liked it! P.S. I wish Mark himself made an appearance in the video with you ❤
I recently rewatched the series. Absolutely love it! I think I first saw some of your POVs on TikTok back in 2019, then got interested in analog horror, found your channel and thought: "Hey, he looks familiar."😄 Love your content!
You are one of my favourite creators, the way you interact with your fan base is so fun and I love hearing your thought proces throughout making mark and friends since it was one of the first series I saw of you :D
Man, I love this series. I was hooked from the beginning, but the lore drops and Easter eggs pulled me in more. This series genuinely made my jaw and stomach drop multiple times, and I was so happy to see Mark escape at the end. Absolutely and unsettlingly brilliant!
I watched mark and friends so many times, made an oc some what based off it!!! And i kinda understood the lore but i knew there was some pieces missing..
This was amazing! The Mr. Plant videos were my introduction to your work, but it was Mark and Friends that made me really pay attention. All the thought going into the characters, the blend of kid's show and horror themes, and the lore is so cool and effective. Understanding the backstory and thought process going into this makes me appreciate this series even more. You've really got a thing for storytelling!
Yo! Thank you. This series confused me so much confusion but now that I know the full lore, it makes a lot more sense! This was so much fun and I hope to see more series and content from you!
i like how after almost 3 yrs later we get a final explanation. i had to sit there for 3 years being confused cuz i can’t take anything 😭 anyway being a fan since the end of 2020 makes me happy to see how much you’ve grown :))
mark and friends is like my number 1 favorite thing u have ever made tbh X) i love mark and friends so much!!! losing my mind rn, so excited!!!!!!! /pos IM ACTUALLY GONNA CRY RN IM SO HAPPY!!!!!!!!
I have pupaphobia. I can kind of handle things after a while, but my brain goes into fight or flight when I see muppets. Mark and Friends has kind of been exposure therapy for me since Mark was a cute character and not overtly creepy, and he was in an interesting setting. Thanks for making this, Ashur 😭
So Im getting that the implications and real life pararrels give the horror of the series it punch so to speak, (similar to the walkie talky commercial, scariest short in my opinion) and thats really interesting and compelling to me, reminds me of older indie horror games, honestly really love that, cant wahat you create in the future.
I've always loved these kinds of videos. Like the, uh, vhs tapes and... stuff. I can't really put things to words BUT! I love your channel, sir. Thank you for doing all this work you do for us. :)
im literally 45 seconds in and from watching so much of Ashur's horror stuff the fact that his eyes are staring directly at the camera is freaking me out 😭😭😭
I think it’s kind of funny how Ashur himself reflects his art. He’s a sweetheart, but after watching so much of his content I’ve started associating his face with that cursed kids dark nostalgia vibe. His content looks sweet but is dark and twisted, Ashur looks a bit spooky but has a heart of gold.
Ik you probs won’t see this but I love your vids so much to the point where I’m going to make my own series inspired by you so Ty for the inspo and the push I need
Ashur, I’m starting to notice you have a weird obsession of making all of your flower characters murderers. Mr. Plant, Tim Flowers, even a bunch of the plants in Gardening with Argos. I’m just waiting for Flowey to appear at some point.
Mark and friends was how I started watching your content - your style of storytelling is incredible, I love how you have created both a disturbing but unique world for your characters!
Holy crap it's datchia But yes, mark and friends is so amazing and I love the gruesomeness that isnt pushed so badly that it's shock value, and love the hidden details that are blink-and-you-miss-it. I love a good mystery! Love ur content!
Im really late to this, but im just so happy to hear the full story of Mark and Friends!! The characters and the story are absolutely wonderful and im really happy to know know the full story! Amazing work!! ^^
I remember watching the Mark and Friends series and writing out an entire lore doc for my friends to read bc I was OBSESSED with figuring out the lore. This is hands down one of my favorite series of yours, right beside the Mourner
I loved Mark and friends! I also really love the cursed advertisement vids, I had this one headcanon where the advertiser has become unnerved by the advertisements he's making but has to put on a smile and continue to advertise in order to have a paycheck.
Honestly this is my favorite series of yours but no matter how many times I re-watched it I could never quite understand the lore or story so seeing this video was a huge help and I enjoy this series a lot more now knowing all the lore
MARK AND FRIENDS HAVE BEERN MY FAVORITE Series YOUVE DONE I WOULD LOVE IF YOU DID ANOTHER SERIES OF MARK IN IT OR LIKEE SUM LIKE THATS ALSO IM MIDDLE EASTERN! IVE REWATCHED IT SO MANY TIMESSSS
I remember watching this whole series a while back and loving it! The only thing I got wrong was that I thought all three boys were kidnapped at the same time...
Mark and friends sounds like the kind of kids show i would watch get invested in and then it becomes one of my favorite shows even though it’s a kids show so my friends make fun of me for loving a kids show and constantly tease me about it so i stop talking about it and then cry when it ends
I know this is a bit off topic but the fact that it came out on my birthday is crazy- oh btw i love this series and i hope u keep up with the spectacular work!
I was literally obsessed with Mark & Friends last year or 2 years ago I 4got but thiz coming up on my recommended was the highlight of my month!! Tysm I was literally so happy watching the full thing!!1!1! X3
Hi Ashur i love all of your videos they never fail to scare me and the creepy roommate one you posted a few days ago was super creepy and me and my sister thought the uncanny valley you looked like a scary Michael Jackson
I'm literally 8 months late to this video, but anyways, just a small idea that came to me: you should do a clip of Argos interviewing Mark about his traumatizing childhood in an episode of TWOMP(the world of mr plant). It could be another one of Argos's chaotic jobs as an interviewer🤩
First off this was amazing the full Mark and friends story was AWESOME but can we just appreciate that this man made an entire story all by himself, and it was good ❤
Only recently found this channel and I am very much enjoying it and just finished a whole Mark and friends series, mark was my favorite (also I love your shirt!)
This was perfect! While watching this series I thought you did have some hidden lore, and I spent days trying to solve it! (This was after the whole series came out) but I kept getting stuck😭 Thank you so much for making this!!! Also that Mr. Plant episode would be really cool to see!!
I've just found this channel, and it's honestly AWESOME. I swear, I'm probably going to do a Mark&Friends or TWOMP Quiz and/or fanfic of it on quotev. Like, honestly awesome! I've watched both of the series now, and Ashur puts in so much work in the masks and lore from what I've seen!
This was the first video I had watched and that’s what got me into your channel, I was excited when I was another series you had, Mr plant and I was very excited. I love your videos❤
Doing a long video with the projector was so difficult and I was always standing in the WORST place!
You work so hard for us haha! I love your videos!
Ik it always gets on your arm!
Plant
@@David-dp7lsmr.
it reminds me of when I’m in school and when I present lol
Mark needs to be protected at all costs
YES
i join the gang
I think it’s a little late for that
YES JUST YES
100%. Hope he’s doing amazing with his grandma 👍👍
HEY ALL! I hope you guys are doing good. :) More shorts and other videos are coming, it’s just been taking a little longer than normal. Thanks for the constant support!
Beautiful meaning of everything in this lore also, keep it up, ur so cool.
Good job dude!
What makeup do use reccomend for horror?
I love your shirt!
Hey don't worry it's ok if it's taking slower we can wait . How are you doing though?
After watching one of the gardening with Argos episodes I developed a little head canon,
basically after mark escaped billy, Argos found Mark and decided to take care of him for a few days before mark could finally reunite with his grandmother
I like the idea of Argos ending up Mark's foster parent, personally.
@@Sam-sc6kmsame!
That’s adorable! 😊
Why do I wanna draw mr plant and Argos with mark now.
Thats adorable i hope thats true
I genuinely love Mark and Friends so much 😭❤
I know, its amazing!
AYY FIZZAROLLI PFPP!! (also same.)
@@lo9xd YESSSS
obsessed that he’s doing a power point 😭😭😭
Imagine there was a whole series featuring on Mark's current life, and a much more detailed version of his past. . . That sounded better in my head...
At 16:04 ashur stands in such a way that marks name is right in the middle of the hart on ashur’s shirt.
Oh yeahhh
aww thats actually so sweet
Mark’s grandma is such a girl boss like if I got kidnapped as a kid I want her around.
me and my friends collectively agree granny fuzz is absolutely insane in a good way like she’s that cool grandma who gives you money
does that make sense
@@corrupteddoodles omg, she totally is!
@@BeefleafIsMyBelief i have a feeling if grandma fuzz ever met billy hendricks he would be absolutely obliterated
@@corrupteddoodles ikr
@@corrupteddoodles his head got smashed in with a hammer by mark at the end. Grandma fuzz’s power runs in the family
Mark and Friends is honestly my favourite out of all the stories you’ve done (I love everything but I found you through this one lol) would you ever bring it back?
Probably not! The host isn’t alive anymore in story and I like how it ended :) but I’m not gonna rule it out!
@@AshurGharavi fair enough. Honestly I interpreted it as he was knocked unconscious and would be hunting Mark down. In my head I guess I saw him as a “William Afton” type lol “I always come back” 😝
(Which…btw…dude your William Afton cosplay was so good)
@mischiefmanagedxx592 Ah that wouldn't really make sense tho cuz at the end of Mark and friends episodes there's a newspaper saying Billy hendricks is dead xd
@@mischiefmanagedxx592 you know it could be a serial killer copycat who was a big fan of Billy's work that's the only way I can imagine the series coming back.
@@siobhanreitz9351 Yeah, but it’d kind of be a drag on it, you know? I’m personally happy where it stopped, and I think that anything else would just be dragging onto the show.
Mark and friends was the reason I subbed to you in the first place and the world of mr.plant just gave me a hyperfixation because it’s so good!
Also my favorite character was probably cupcake monster (idk why the name just sounds funny) also the concept of his head getting chopped off, his body getting shipped back to his parents, and the mark being forced to eat his head is just so gruesome, it’s a miracle that TikTok let that slide even back then. Also love your videos Ashur! ❤
Mark and Friends was one of my favourite series for a while cuz it was so good with the concept. Luv ur work Ashur❤
My fav is grandma. Never giving up on her grandkid, even if he ended up freeing himself
I feel like this would make an amazing graphic novel or comic book. My sister got me into all of your content when she loved weirdcore and even though I didn’t I loved your work. Thank you so much for such amazing content, your so incredibly talented!
Absolutely love Mark and Friends! I discovered it when it was already complete, so I got to binge it in a day! I love Mr. Plant, but I think Mark and Friends has to be my favorite work of yours.
I always cry watching mark and friends. its so depressing
That outfit is so preety Ashur. I especially loved the cutsie necklace whilst you talk about child murder lol
You know it’s gonna be a good day when you get the notification that Ashur posted

You 🫵
I just subscribed to your channel after watching it for a week
I AM SO GLAD YOUR MAKING MARK AND FRIENDS RELATED CONTENT AGAIN 💗
I’m a 12 year old and enjoy this kind of stuff. When I found your channel I was so happy lol
i love mark and friends!! do you ever want to do a different series besides twomp? id be very interested in it :)
I do!!! I wanna do something a little more straight up horror-y I just haven’t come up with a concept yet. :)
@@AshurGharavi i’m looking forward to whatever you come up with! love you tons. the shirt slays btw ❤️❤️

Can I just say I’ve recently gotten invested in this channel and OML ALL THE KINDNESS THAT ASHUR HAS AND THE CONTENT IS JUST CHEFS KISS ❤❤

I saw the notification for the video and got so happy! We have a Mark in our System (we have D.I.D.) and I wanna show this to him later :D
