I live in holland and they invent shit like that from the supermarkets like on an almost daily basis trying to get the kids to like em.

and of course collect them all.

and i dont even wanna get started about all the orange shit they invent every time a big games championship is coming.

How do voice actors get through kids' shows scripts without killing themselves??

Heather said...

Funny...for a moment I mistook him for Bruce, the Hawaiian god of mullets.

Also, what's that Canadian kid doing in Hawaii? Where are his parents?

We were all duped into a horrible marketing ploy, now I see the light.

James said...

Is there also a Tequila Slammer? What are its powers?

Luke said...

I put this cartoon up there with that really crappy Rubik's Cube cartoon.

filmscience said...

You can always tell who the protagonist in "boys' cartoons" because they are drawn in the most homoerotic way.

A quasi related question: can we blame "Thundercats" for Furries?

Ryan Booker said...

I swear there wasn't a single toy in the 1980s that didn't have its own awful cartoon. Besides the Rubik's Cube cartoon mentioned above there were:
Madballs
My Pet Monster
Teddy Ruxpin
...and on and on.

Am I the only person why the Hawaiian sun-pog-thing looks like the Aryan poster boy?

This HAD To have been a Busted TV Pilot, because there is No way in hell this could have made it past one Episode, let alone a Season. Right?

Feutus lapdance said...

Thank god no 1 colects Flippo's in Nederland anymore.

Ben.H said...

The armed forces can't stop a bunch of pogs? Is this show supposed to be set in France?

Samantha King said...

@filmscience: I was thinking the same thing. That kid had a Cubby from "Gummi Bears" thing goin' on.

From the IMDB entry, this looks like its just a pilot.

And if you liked it, you may like these:

Shadow Rising
"Twinkle, the Dream Being"

Awaiting the modernization of this series: the tale of the magical ipad apps.

Destination A Go-Go said...

There should be limited edition 2E2T2 DVDs with collectible pogs.

Ravenhallow said...

Yes, Destination! I want the gambling secrets guy Pogs! Bingo! Slots! Horrid mustaches! Big-Gulps!

(Star Wars + Scientology) * (fabulous 80s-kids-cartoon-crap aesthetic + Pogs) = Slammers

Unknown said...

at least the kid who did the voice of this could reclaim himself in the tv series Reboot.

mcsandwich said...

I should have known there was a shitty cartoon about Pogs but the knowledge of this show somehow escaped me until now. Thanks EIT, I guess.

What's up with that 8 min video that showed up after this video about the pog and slammer collection? It was riveting.

Chris said...

"With your pogs combined, I am Captain Pog-net!"

WTH, my wife actually remembers this turd of a show...

Nate said...

Watch this again and cast a homoerotic over tone to everything that is happeneing. Go on! I dare ya!

Henry Horker said...

Nice "not" at the end. Where can I get some slammers?

BooDoug187 said...

I had a "OJ in the Slammer!" Slammer.

Trish said...

The most impressive thing about this cartoon is how it contains all of the early 1990s. ALL of it.

So what did we learn this week kids? Go deep into caves with no adult supervision and battle a leprechaun for them pogs! Gotta Slam them All!


Now that I think about it though I think I have one of those slammers still... hope its the robot chick that looks suspiciously like C-3PO.
