It's time for our zuzzy and zazzy April Fool's tradition on the podcast of covering a live-action cartoon, and we're joined by a special guest! We're covering Saturday Morning All Star Hits (aka S.M.A.S.H.) with one of the executive producers, Scott Gairdner (aka our pal from Podcast: The Ride)! Scott tells all about how he and the rest of the team made this amazing comedy throwback, we dig into its deep lore, and finally, we dive deep into the first episode, School! So grab some subs and give a listen!

While certainly not as weird as Skip, Treybor, or their inspirations, this format does feel very familiar to me as a Canadian since YTV here has had cartoon segment hosts for as long as I've been alive, and they always get up to weird shennanigans. While I haven't sat down and watched those blocks for at least 15 years, people around my age have been throwing back to the heyday of our childhoods on TikTok and some YouTube channels, so it's still fairly fresh in my brain. One of the hosts from when I watched it, Sugar Lyn Beard, more or less successfully branched out into other acting, having been a recurring character on The Flash and co-starring in movies like Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates, which always gave me a tickle to see her popping up.

Thank you so much guys. I would have never seen this otherwise but SMASH is really fun and I’m enjoying it slowly like Henry said.

Ron Sterling

Thanks for recommending this to me on Twitter, Henry. I loved all the twists and turns it took, as well as the way it played with your expectations and didn't ride the straight millennial/gen-x 80/90s nostalgia wave of Stranger Things and the like.

Michael Branson

This show is so much my growing up. Thanks for this!! I really Hope they do more.

Richard J. Smith

Count me amongst the fooled. The one thing that bugs me is, is that Lottie Wolfe in the concert photo in the last episode? Did she live??

Norman Benford

I watched on a 70” tv in my living room, and I spent the first three episodes impressed that they found someone who so closely resembled Kyle Mooney to play Trabor. A quick trip to IMDb showed me the error of my ways. SMASH is an absolute gem. This reminds me that I need to check out Brigsby Bear. Thanks for another great WAC.

Adam Elmahdi

Thanks for introducing me to this! They actually did bother to put this on UK Netflix but I've seen zero mention of it anywhere.

Some of my favorite moments on SMASH involve the voice acting, such as Cree Summer popping up so frequently as different characters in back to back segments, or Frank Welker chewing the scenery as Ronnie Selfish.

“At a peak in their popularity, the (Chip and Pepper) Foster brothers appeared on a Canadian TV station singing "Chip and Pepper: get hip or get out!" The footage came into the hands of NBC's head of entertainment, Brandon Tartikoff, who decided to give them a Saturday morning cartoon show. In fall 1991, Chip and Pepper's Cartoon Madness debuted. The new edition to NBC's animated line-up included sketches and interviews, but old cartoons such as Casper and Captain Caveman took up most of the airtime. The show lasted one season before NBC dropped its animated block altogether in 1992.”

NBC Saturday morning cartoons died in 1992

That PSA episode cracked me up because when I was a small child, my parents inexplicably forbade me and my siblings from saying "shut up" because it was... a uniquely rude phrase, I guess? (They were also very weird about the word "fart" and would instead make us use the euphemism "freep" until we were tweens.) There was apparently enough real anti-"shut up" hysteria in the 90s that a writer on Angry Beavers talked about the phrase being censored from an episode because Nickelodeon's then-president didn't want children to say it. Was this just a thing with Boomers who became Very Concerned Parents?

I’ve been totally obsessed with this show since I listening to the cast. It’s so of a time and the style is very idiosyncratic but I couldn’t get enough of it when watching it.
