Recently, I've watched a few episodes of the "Timon and Pumbaa" series...I really don't like the title characters (NO offense to anyone here who does like them)...one of the ones I've watched was "Never Everglades"...the dude in this video...here...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IAX8AHXNaw8...he highlights it at about the 6 minute mark. So yeah, I truthfully admit I watched it on my
birthday. Yeah...not gonna stoop to that level next year, though!
I did watch the 2 Zazu episodes...sort of dumb...and I also watched the episodes with the hyenas. I've mentioned before that the hyenas are my absolute favorite characters from
The Lion King, and quite probably my favorite characters in animation outside of LBT (my favorite children's show, naturally
). And I thought they were all pretty funny, particualrly "Can't take a yoke" (seriously, I thought they were gonna try the old tar monster gag on the ostrich in that one!
). And I really wonder why on earth they didn't get
their own show. I would like, totally watch that.
Personally, I like to think it was the lack of them getting their own shorts in the later seasons that caused the series to discontinue.
