Cartoon Time Machine The AniMates

Well, I guess we had to watch The Garfield Movie. Join the Ani-Mates as they welcome the newest Garfield brood…it will make sense in context. Sort of.

This week on Cartoon Time Machine, the Ani-Mates discuss the latest season of the Monsters, Inc. spinoff series “Monsters at Work.” How does Season 2 compare to the previous season? What new and returning characters will make an appearance? And will mediocre white men (or purple monsters) continue failing upward?

It’s time for another Cartoon Clash! The Ani-Mates have each set forth six animated challengers to go head-to-head in a 101 battle. Who will be the cartoon champion? Will one of Katie’s ridiculous choices actually go through? And will Scarlett actually say the right name of her pick? Tune in to this week’s episode to find out!

This week, the Ani-Mates play another round of their “Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon”-inspired game as they click their way through IMDB to see who can find prolific voice actress Jennifer Hale the quickest. 

On this week’s episode of Cartoon Time Machine, the Ani-Mates return to the world of Bluey to discuss the latest arc that has taken the world by storm, including the series’ first 28-minute special, "The Sign.” They discuss the struggles of moving, casual Australian drinking culture, and when it is and is not appropriate to ship seven-year-olds (it’s never, the correct answer is never).

Everyone loves a crossover, right? From the Jimmy Timmy Power Hour to that time Uncle Grandpa appeared on Steven Universe—remember Uncle Grandpa??—crossovers give our favorite cartoons the chance to interact with a whole new set of worlds and characters. So on this week’s episode of Cartoon Time Machine, the Ani-Mates pitch their ideas for some more crossovers that we’d love to see happen for our favorite animated shows.
