RTTP #84 - Guided Missile, or, A Hunka Hunka Burnin Suspension of Disbelief

Today on Return to the Past, David rattles off a long list of weird Scooby-Doo knockoffs that he found on Twitter. And not a moment too soon, because, if Mike the cat's constant distressed mewling is any indication, Ben's Xbox summons a ghost when it's powered on! Anyone know how we can contact Goober and the Ghost Chasers? While we worry about that, you can enjoy this fresh new episode (as of twelve years ago) of Code Lyoko, wherein Jeremie is invited to a real missile launch by a French airman who looks and sounds like if Tom Cruise circa Top Gun had a baby with Elvis. It is a hoot and not to be missed. This RTTP episode carries a content warning for a brief discussion of animal abuse at 34:00.  === Click here for a series of diary entries released after Season 1 of Code Lyoko, translated by a_queenoffairys! http://a-queenoffairys.tumblr.com/post/55148012898/if-these-were-ever-in-english-i-dont-know-where  Click here for the forbidden fifth Replika: http://img.codelyoko.fr/galeries/decors/Decors_067.jpg === Questions?

Remember the cartoons you loved as a kid? Do you, like us, remember mid-2000s Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network with a mix of fondness and terror – or, if you don’t, do you want to know what the fuss was about? Join Mary, David, and Ben as we revisit the cartoons that shaped us in an episode-by-episode deep dive, as well as the Internet fan culture as it was then and is now. How do these nostalgic shows hold up? What do we think of them now, as not kids but sad adults? How has the zeitgeist and Internet following evolved along with us? We set out to answer these questions and also to be incredibly hilarious and physically attractive. We started in 2017 with Return to the Past: A Code Lyoko Retrospective, which ran from 2017-2019 and makes up the first part of this feed. Second was The Ultimate Reprise, which ran from 2019-2020 and covers Oban: Star Racers. Now we’re on The Avatar Recycle, hot on the heels of Avatar: The Last Airbender’s Netflix debut! Join us wheresoever you like. Watching along is not necessary - but highly encouraged – and we try to keep spoiler free up to the current episode!
