Ep 106: Voltron: Legendary Defender

Saturday Mourning Cartoons ·

2016/06/20

We are back again to form Voltron! Sean and Dave are joined by our friend Max Nicholson from IGN and Collider to talk the brand new Netflix and Dreamworks show - Voltron: Legendary Defender! I'm not sure what I can say about this week's episode other than the new Voltron is fantastic and completely binge worthy. Look for a mid-week extra special episode!

Ep 105: Voltron: Defender of the Universe

Saturday Mourning Cartoons ·

2016/06/13

We're back! And like a couple of mecha lions forming a giant fight robot, we are ready to defend the universe from the weirdest cartoons around. Yes, this week we are finally getting into Voltron. In fact, we are getting into Voltron ALL MONTH LONG. Does Sean go crazy from bad voice acting? You betcha. Does Dave go crazy when the colors of the lions don't match up with the pilots? You betcha. In our excitement about the Netflix original series Voltron Legendary Defender, we're watching

Ep 104: B-Sides part 4

Saturday Mourning Cartoons ·

2016/06/06

It's our final edition of our B-sides! Sean and Dave are joined by Melanie Harker so we can sing the theme song for Bakugan battle brawlers, talk a little trash on our friends podcast called Law and Order: SVU (special viewing unit), and Dave briefly talks about during themes songs in dirge funeral marches. Enjoy our final B-sides episode and we'll be back next week with all new episodes that will probably be about a bunch of lions that form together into a robot. Yup, we're getting into Voltron

Ep 103: B-Sides part 3

Saturday Mourning Cartoons ·

2016/05/30

Three weeks of B-Sides! This is getting crazy. Interested in hearing Sean and Dave do terrible Boston accents? Discuss Marky Marky on the set of Transformers? What about Chris Pratt's abs in Jurassic World? It's all on this B-Side so enjoy! *Sponsored by Monster Energy drinks and the Boston Oscars*

Ep 102: B-Sides part 2

Saturday Mourning Cartoons ·

2016/05/23

It's always a joy when our friends come on the show, especially Evan Valentine because he's just so damn a-dork-able. Sean is constantly in awe of Evan and his knowledge of comic books. Dave talks about the idea of a skeleton planet after Goku summons up all of earth's life force. Enjoy part 2 of B-Sides and enjoy our revelry since this was recorded on St. Patrick's day and Sean didn't realize that it was a holiday. He had a good reason (he's a dum dum).

Ep 101: B-Sides part 1

Saturday Mourning Cartoons ·

2016/05/16

Wouldn't you know it! We hit a milestone and then get lazy. Instead of talking cartoons this week, we're releasing some b-sides for you. What are SMC b-sides you ask? It's all the jokes and trash that happens BEFORE the show. It's Sean and Dave acting silly and irreverent! This week, we have a 20 minute conversation about Parappa the rapper! When that new mixtape gonna drop?! No clue. *fingers crossed*

Ep 100: Batman The Animated Series part 2

Saturday Mourning Cartoons ·

2016/05/09

It's our 100th episode and part 2 of our discussion about Batman The Animated Series. We've been doing the show for two years and so thankful that we've gotten this far with the help of so many amazing friends. This week we get into the villains that challenge and ultimately make Batman such an incredible crime fighter and detective. We're joined by some of our friends as they share their memories from the show. Enjoy our 100th episode! Cheers!

Ep 99: Batman The Animated Series

Saturday Mourning Cartoons ·

2016/05/02

"I am vengeance, I am the night, I am Batman," is one of the few inspiration lines that inspired this very podcast. To say that Batman The Animated Series is a seminal piece of animated is an understatement as this inspired so many cartoons. The grit, noir feel, orchestral music, and amazing voice acting make this show something that Sean and Dave use to judge just about every cartoon we watch. Join us as we recap the episodes "Deep Freeze" and "On leather wings" and delve into the show that

Ep 98: Cowboy Bebop

Saturday Mourning Cartoons ·

2016/04/25

Buckle your Seatbelts because we're about to blow this scene. This week Sean and Dave are joined by the wonderful Allison Keene from Collider.com to discuss Cowboy Bebop. This show holds a special place in the guys hearts and for Allison, it was a show that she eventually grew to love. Boasting an amazing soundtrack from Yoko Kanno, jazz music and sense of noir are woven into the entire fabric of this show. We jumped back to examine four episodes that we believe do an amazing job of conveying

Ep 97: Jojo's Bizarre Adventure

Saturday Mourning Cartoons ·

2016/04/18

This week, DaveStar and SeanStar are having some adventures. What kind of adventures; adventures that are completely bizarre. We're watching Jojo's Bizarre Adventure and at some point, SeanStar's brain leaks out of his ear because this show is fantastic and also completely insane. One thing we've been able to ascertain is that Dio Brando is the worst "human" on the planet. Dio is all about two things that Sean and Dave hate, which is stealing kisses and knee kicking dogs. Dave gets a little

Ep 96: Zoids Chaotic Century

Saturday Mourning Cartoons ·

2016/04/11

You called us dummies for not watching Zoids: Chaotic Century and we listened! This week we took another user submission from Facebook and we were honestly a little hesitant after our previous foray into Zoids New Century. Chaotic Century was a great mix of intriguing plot points and familiar liger zoids. The pilot for Chaotic Century hit all the major beats to make for not only a great pilot episode but also an incredible finale.

Ep 95: Ultimate Muscle

Saturday Mourning Cartoons ·

2016/04/04

Are you concerned about Millions of Unusual Small Creatures Lurking Everywhere? Do you have a shoebox full of small pink rubber men from the mid 80's in your garage? Did you ever wonder where this franchise originated from and how it got to the USA? The answer is the cartoon show Ultimate Muscle. Originating in Japan as a parody of superhero shows/manga, Ultimate Muscle was a hit but only the toys made their way to the US in the 80's. In 2002, a second generation of Ultimate Muscle aired for 51

Ep 94: Digimon vs Zatch Bell

Saturday Mourning Cartoons ·

2016/03/28

Ring the bell because this is the final round of our Pocket Monster March Madness Month and we're ready to throw in the towel! Who will be victorious? Will it be the contender who guilts us into dealing with environmental issues only to abandon that ideal immediately? Or will it be the demon pinocchio who shoots lightening from his face? Digimon or Zatch Bell?! We're bringing in friend and guest Tony Lazzeroni to help us settle is month long dispute! Join us as we come to the conclusion of

Ep 93: Monster Rancher vs Magi-Nation

Saturday Mourning Cartoons ·

2016/03/21

It's the penultimate round of the our Pocket Monster March Madness Month and we've summoned Evan Valentine, comedian and contributor at Collider.com and Comicbook.com, to do battle with Monster Rancher and Magi-Nation! Will it be the show where the big bad is named after the sound a cow makes? Or will it be the the show with the absolute most vanilla main character we've ever seen, name Tony Jones?! Evan, Dave, and Sean have strong opinions about these shows that may culminated in the lowest

Ep 92: Pokemon vs Beyblade

Saturday Mourning Cartoons ·

2016/03/14

It's the round THREE of our Pocket Monster Madness Month and the gloves are coming off! We've got heavy weight Pokemon stepping into the ring against Beyblade, our underdog. Who will survive this carnage? Will you "choose" Pokemon and Ash's ability to be thwarted by the environment and his surroundings? Or will Beyblade make the concept of battling dreidels fun and exciting? Tune in for a new pulverizing match as Pocket Monster Madness Month continues on the Saturday Mourning Cartoons

01:17:10

Ep 91: Shaman King vs Yo-Kai Watch

Saturday Mourning Cartoons ·

2016/03/07

Ring that bell to start the battle because this week we have Shaman King and Yo-Kai Watch stepping into the cartoon octagon! Shaman King is our second seed versus the new cartoon on the block, Yo-Kai Watch. Who will emerge victorious? Will it be Shaman King with their inability to identify a lead character who is unable to button his shirt? Or Yo-Kai Watch where our hero Nate is enslaved by a ghost to forever have to break up this parents arguments over yogurt? Tune in for a new

Ep 90: Yu-gi-oh! vs Bakugan Battle Brawlers

Saturday Mourning Cartoons ·

2016/02/29

Get ready for the bracketed insanity that is Pocket Monster Madness Month! Stepping into the ring is our #1 seed, Yu-gi-oh!, versus our #8 seed, Bakugan Battle Brawlers. Will it be the Blue Eyes White Dragon or Drago from Vestroia? Who will triumph? Who will collect all of the things and ask their parent for permission to buy all of the toys? We have renowned expert Melanie Harker joining us to help us with this impossible task. The next four weeks will be a brutal onslaught of pocket

Ep 89: Justice League Unlimited

Saturday Mourning Cartoons ·

2016/02/22

The SMC crew is moving "faster than a speeding bullet" out of our superhero month with one of our favorites; Justice League Unlimited. The sheer size of the show just makes everything feel so epic in scale and we watched the final two episodes of the series which proves to us that this is an amazing cartoon. Loads of heroes, tons of villains, a team up between heroes and villains to battle a mutual foe? We watched the episodes "Alive" and "Destroyer" and were gleefully excited at how well

01:10:42

Ep 88: Zoids

Saturday Mourning Cartoons ·

2016/02/15

Thankfully, we live in a world where Zoid battles have been regulated. At SMC we can't even begin to believe a world where Zoids aren't regulated, which is why we've brought back Jamal Newman to discuss proper upkeep and maintenance. Zoids is about a young hot head pilot, named Bit Cloud, who pilots a special Zoid named Liger Zero. What's the relationship between man and machine? Should the Blitz Team change the name of these team to something cute and adorable? And why is the character Jamie

Ep 87: Static Shock

Saturday Mourning Cartoons ·

2016/02/08

We're continuing our February super hero theme month with Static Shock. Dave was down and out with the "sickness" (probably a Zombie or the Disturbed song), so Jamal Newman and Melanie Harker join Sean. Sean had no idea that Static was based on a comic book character, Jamal laments that he was a baby in the 90's, and Melanie asserts that she's a renown expert on time travel. Surprisingly, we picked a very emotional episode of this series where the writers did an amazing job showing our heroes
