Introduce yourselves here!

[FlyingSquid]

And yet they have a sketch dedicated to a Sven and Ole joke. It’s so Midwestern but people love it around the world.

I bet they’re popular in Malta!

I’ve been here since almost the beginning of the forums, but I just realized I never introduced myself! Better late than never.
Hello! Gen Z MSTie here from the midwest. I was introduced to the show as a kid in the late 2000s/early 2010s, but I didn’t really get into it until the Netflix seasons. I don’t post very often, but I read almost everything here! I plan to start participating in threads here more often. My favorite episode is a toss up between Carnival Magic, The Day Time Ended, and Beyond Atlantis.
Biggest other fandoms at the moment include Star Wars, Stargate, Doctor Who, and Phineas and Ferb.

I did read this entire thread before posting, so it’s nice to meet you all!

[MichaelRobertson]

Belated welcome!

[Madptarmigan]

Welcome @mittens. Always nice to meet another Phineas & Ferb fan.

[optiMSTie]

Howdy there, @mittens, and (a belated) welcome to the forums!

[mittens]

@MichaelRobertson, @Madptarmigan, @optiMSTie Thank you all so much!

[LadyStarblade]

Greetings!

Joe Don Baker IS Mittens!

Hi @mittens! Tell me, were you satisfied with Joe Don Baker’s performance AS you?

(And welcome to the forums, and @DAV owes me a Coke!)

1112. Carnival Magic (1983)

For 20 years, no prints existed. In 2009, a 35mm copy surfaced. Sweaty, icky, unpleasant, Carnival Magic (1983) hurts to watch it. A collision of the circus and The Dukes of Hazzard, nothing is safe. Joe Exotic, Dr. Oz, a talking chimp, the rest is white noise. So much cliche, so much filler, but “Where’s the Beef?” Tom-Talk, Yeasta-Pet, Flavor-Sweat, Cop Jargon, Mark Hamill. “George A. Romero’s Night of the Living Carnies”, “Not the Mama! Not the Mama!”, “Mongo only pawn in game of life”. Excre…

1204. The Day Time Ended (1980)

Produced by Charles Band and distributed by Compass International Pictures, The Day Time Ended (1980) bombards the senses with every manner of effects. Stop Motion, Models, Matte Paintings. The window dressing is more developed than the story. The Vault, The Fortune Meal, Spray-On Mustard Gas, Musing on How to Die, “Concepts”, Dr. Erhardt. “International, international? This film’s more international than a house of pancakes”, “Hey Y’all prepare yourself for the Charles Band… Man!”, “Oh that’s s…

1303 Beyond Atlantis - Your Thoughts

We’ll, we’ve come to the final, backers only preview event. Here’s my last post-event chat page. Here’s where you can air your thoughts for “Beyond Atlantis”. What worked, what needs a little love, and what might not have worked for you? The audio levels, at least for me (using Roku), seemed to have the best mix and balance of the last few episodes. There was a few glitch moments in the video, but I’m unsure if that was my internet, or the stream itself. The lighting and compo…

Since it took you nearly 2 years to introduce yourself, I’m going to wait nearly 2 years to welcome you.

Unless I forget, which I can guarantee I will.

My favorite episode is a toss up between Carnival Magic, The Day Time Ended, and Beyond Atlantis.

It’s not at my top, but I’d put Carnival Magic close to my Top Ten which makes us rare kindred spirits. I get the impression that experiment isn’t widely liked. Maybe it’s related to us both being Midwesterners.

[whenfatkillsfat]

Named after my favorite Mitchell episode and my user ID references the other JBD movie.

Carnival Magic is one of my favorite Netflix episodes. I hadn’t realized it wasn’t well-liked.
The Day Time Ended and Beyond Atlantis are also among my favorite episodes.

[FreemanLowell]

Maybe Carnival Magic is better liked than I thought.

[NotTVsFrank]

I thought Carnival Magic was well received but I don’t have any data to back this up.

I was under that impression myself. Loved the hell out of it, the closest thing to bringing that “where did they FIND this” Manos vibe in Season 11.

Carnival Magic is one of those cozy sleeper-hit eps that grows on you, in my opinion. It Lives By Night has a similar “What even is this grotty little movie?” charm for me.
