Orange v. Banana
Hahahahah!
Same in the UK if you take sunak and Boris, and India with modi and gandhi :)
Cervantes did it first:
Idk who this Cervantes guy is, but I suspect Misters Hanna and Barbera would like a word with him:
Final Boss of Soul Blade
The originator of the format
Everyone should have a Sancho because we’re all tilting at windmills.
Cervantes or Shakespeare with “The Merry Wives of Windsor” (Falstaff and Slender). It’s possible both were using an even older trope though.
Oh god this show was REAL!? I watched it once when I was really sick and thought it was a fever dream.
Bananas in pyjamas are coming down the stairs!
They cannot be bargained with. They cannot be reasoned with.
They can’t feel pity, or remorse, or fear.
Do you remember the show about the clown girl and the big red(?) couch?
The big comfy couch? There’s a cat called snicklefrits
Sounds about right, I watched it in Spanish so it would have had a different name.
Yes! She had a doll too.
Luna and Molly, a clown and her dolly.
Weird looking dick and balls. Why is there no hair growing out of the knob?
They prolly shaved
Right, I’ll shave mine too
yeah it’s a holdover from the early days of movies and vaudeville… think Abbot & Costello, Laurel & Hardy, Spanky and Alfalfa, the list goes on and on…
That one didn’t work out so well.
Yeah one of them was a bit murdery.
I realize this is a joke but there’s something real here about contrast making your characters more memorable or something
Silhouettes are important in character design after all
the show is “katjakaj och bentebent”
Troy and Abed in the fruiiiitboooowl
The sidekick trope has been a prime mover since vaudeville, maybe before
The word “prime mover” being used outside of the train community brings a smile to my face :3
