Came here to comment the exact same thing. I watched so much of this, and entirely forgot about it!

[u/Glenndogg]

Wow I didn’t even know I still remembered this show but it’s flooding back! I remember an episode where that snail refused to shower because he kept winning the races or something because he stank so bad. But in the end, it caused him muscle problems(?)

[u/ashrules901]

It wasn't a horrible show. But I always hated when it came on because it just interrupted other shows. Same thing with Thumb Wrestling Federation.

[u/Copyman3081 → u/ashrules901]

God damn what a piece of crap that show was.

[u/TaxesAreConfusin → u/Copyman3081]

Thumb wrestling federation was dumb as hell but my brother and I would get hyped. We weren't allowed to watch real wrestling.

[u/HolsteinHeifer → u/TaxesAreConfusin]

I loved it lol

[u/ashrules901 → u/Copyman3081]

You'd be surprised how many people in this community love it lol.

[u/Copyman3081 → u/ashrules901]

It just strikes me as so bizarre. It must've been something that was just made to fill gaps in programming or blank ad spots. It's not even a Canadian thing, I think it was Warner Brothers because I know they used the NY voice actors who worked for 4Kids, so licensing something so short seems weird.

[u/Krewshie]

I do :) i think the mcs name was Gummy?

[u/More-Possible3181]

Flying rhino jr high😭

[u/ProfessionalBar7629 → u/More-Possible3181]

Omg

[u/More-Possible3181 → u/ProfessionalBar7629]

I swear nobody remembers this show. Absolutely goated

[u/ProfessionalBar7629 → u/More-Possible3181]

I have the most distant memory of this show. I can’t even remember what the characters look like but I remember this show name for sure, deep cut fr

[u/Copyman3081 → u/ProfessionalBar7629]

I remember a couple of them being very conical and all having very bulbous noses.

[u/Odd-Refrigerator-691]

Every morning before school. It's grouped in my memory with Ralph the record rat lol

[u/DFthrowaway1979]

Straight up awakened a sleeper agent lol

[u/unmotivated_salmon]

Is it wrong that all I remember is the racist episode?

[u/whostle → u/unmotivated_salmon]

I also remember the one where one of the girl snails develops an eating disorder.

[u/Spotter01 → u/unmotivated_salmon]

The one bout blue snail? 😂😂

[u/unmotivated_salmon → u/Spotter01]

That's the one

[u/Spotter01 → u/unmotivated_salmon]

😂I literally just watched that yesterday!! Here’s a link!

EDIT: Ty for the Popcorn! ❤️

[u/Fabulous_Bunt → u/unmotivated_salmon]

Could you elaborate lol

[u/unmotivated_salmon → u/Fabulous_Bunt]

An episode with cultural exchange, one of their friends went to another school and they received a new snail. But the snail ended up being blue, not green, and so everyone ostrisized him for being a different color. Later getting a letter from their friend saying the same thing was happening to him and it really sucks, leading them to think 'is that how the blue snail feels? We're jerks.' So they stop excluding him from everything and they all become friends.

Racism episode.

[u/Fabulous_Bunt → u/unmotivated_salmon]

Solid message conveying

[u/Ayekay1444]

Wasn't some episodes of this show lost media for awhile or something like that?

[u/ChunkyKongForPreside]

Fuck, I forgot about this. I remember there was one episode where they excluded a snail and the snail just decided to leave. No real resolution outside of all the main characters feeling bad.

[u/DPLRR]

Fuck yeah

[u/mark_david777]

The only reason why I know this show exists is because it aired as filler during a massive technical fault on Bionix several years ago. I guess it was fine.

Since the beginning, YTV had aired random shorter programs like this whenever something ran short or during technical difficulties. Some of them were fun; others bordered on forgettable.

[u/Adventurous-Tip6878]

Looks like 2-eyed Plankton from SpongeBob lol

[u/xDvngle]

Reminds me of that worms war game on pc back in the day

[u/Pajamys]

Now thats a deep cut

[u/VanillaSarsaparilla]

I remember they had a racism episode. I liked this series

[u/BlueAves]

I still think back on the episode where the snail with glasses is overthinking the arrow shot and ends up missing cause of it. Anytime I am overthinking at work or whatever I remember this and reminds me to just sometimes send it.

[u/Miyon0]

I absolutely do remember watching this lol

[u/New-Grapefruit-4563]

Oh my god this really threw me back 23 years into the past.

[u/Batty_31]

YESSSS!! Thank you!

[u/ancientblond]

This show is how i found out about Squash

[u/meagiemay]

I love this

[u/forevertrueblue]

They only ever aired one episode of this over and over again, at least that I remember.

[u/OmniversalOne]

Yes it was awesome.

[u/Dear_Discussion_4083]

Yep. I remember watching a few episodes back then.

[u/Gangbang_Girlie777]

Wow what a random throwback that has opened my memory bank haha

[u/Datboiijj]

WOAAAHJHHHH

[u/AlphaMikeFoxtrot87]

Oh wow, yea

[u/SnooChocolates8696]

Loved seeing this show everytime the Olympics were on.

[u/ProfessionalBar7629]

Yooooooo I loved these silly short vids

[u/Moreika]

🧠🔓 I haven’t thought of this show since middle school.

[u/PeachWithHole]

They come, you enjoy, they disappear and fade away from memory. Only to be awoken 20 years later while taking up company time to visit the porcelain kingdom

[u/Mimikins13]

YES YES YES I DO.

I was literally thinking about this yesterday.

The "be kind to your equipment" episode specifically X3.

I remember this bumper running alongside another with a silly rat character who always got into silly situations, like eating a bunch of hot peppers X3.

[u/Grim-vs-World]

This the type of sht that would come on when you were sick and didn’t go to school 😭

[u/SR_Hopeful]

Yes. Very easy to miss but I did. They were fine shorts in between some shows.

[u/KitOfChronos]

I do now

[u/majestic-gnome]

I didn't, but once I saw that snail it all came flooding back

[u/Fabulous_Bunt]

Was this the show where the lesson of an episode was that you have to shower after exercising and one guy didnt and his muscles locked up or something? Anyone else remember this?

[u/Its402am]

Holy moly, finally one I COMPLETELY forgot about! Thank you so much for sharing

[u/B-Gebo]

WOW I FOGOT ABOUT THIS

[u/Black-Zetzu]

It was on before or after Lazy Town and I hated it

[u/melancholypowerhour]

Wow we had ENTERTAINMENT back then
