These bots suck.

Todd and Matthew TFG > [SPOILER]

A bit of trivia: I'm pretty sure that 'Gummi Bears' episode ("Up, Up, and Away") was Jim Cummings's first-ever animation voiceover role (playing the very important guest character Chummi). Prior to that, he had done voice work for the Disney Channel puppet series 'Dumbo's Circus,' but not for animation.

That episode might be my favorite 'Gummi Bears' because it does have a real emotional heft that's not present in most other episodes. You can see the groundwork being laid for the kinds of emotional stories Jymn Magon would later tell on 'TaleSpin' (especially in episodes focusing on either Kit or Rebecca).

One advantage that the Manhattan Clan has over the Gummi Glen crew is that they have access to the conveniences of modern travel, thanks to Xanatos's resources (as we saw in the Stone of Destiny arc). If they want to visit one of the other clans in the world, they can do so with relative ease. Whereas "Up, Up, and Away" makes clear that, in medieval times, Cubbi would be making a one-way trip across the sea to join the Great Gummies, with little likelihood of ever seeing the Gummies who raised him again.

Something 'Gummi Bears' never made quite clear is what the familial relationships are between the various bears, if any. All the Gummies call Grammi "Grammi," even Zummi (who is the same age and grew up with her), but is she actually genetically related to any of the other Bears? More to the point, Sunni seems to be a few years younger than Tummi and a few years older than Cubbi...so, conceivably, one of the other of them could end up mating with her, assuming that they're not related, prolonging the species for another generation. The series generally steered clear of establishing any romantic interests between the Gummies, besides a couple of episodes that dealt with Sunni's crush on the older Gusto (who comes from a different warren).

The series ends with the two-part "King Igthorn," wherein Gummi Glen is destroyed. Given that maintaining their home for the eventual return of the Great Gummies was the main characters' entire reason for remaining there, it's not clear what their future plans are at the end of the series. To rebuild Gummi Glen? To move to Ursalia with the Barbics?

Sorry for the double-post, but an additional thought I'd just had. [SPOILER] While the Gummis were depicted as fleeing overseas rather than getting massacred, the flashback to their flight at the start of the Season One finale, I recall, was itself pretty nightmarish for a comedy-adventure series - the Gummis fleeing to their ships with the humans - portrayed here as unseen; all we see is the flames approaching, which makes them far more scary than Duke Igthorne - in pursuit, and as the ships head out to sea, the Gummis looking back sadly at what was once their homeland. [/SPOILER]

MATTHEW - [SPOILER] Thanks for that post. I remember that episode as well. (It struck me that one major, and understandable difference between the two shows was that while both the Gummis and the gargoyles were reduced to only a small number on account of human hostility and persecution, the Gummis were shown fleeing overseas to new lands (though only one of them wound up getting settled - or at least, having lasting settlements), while the bulk of the gargoyles were slaughtered. The difference makes sense; "Adventures of the Gummi Bears" was designed as a comedy-adventure series, and genocide would have jarred with the tone. [/SPOILER]

Todd> [SPOILER] Funny that "Adventures of the Gummi Bears" would show up, I was recently watching a few episodes and one that came up actually reminded me a bit of Gargoyles, just not in the way they were intending.

In the episode "Up, Up, and Away" the Gummis are visited by another gummi, on Final Fantasy-eque airship no less, who left his warren to search for others of his kind. After finding out that the inhabitants of Gummi Glen are just a small handful (not unlike the Manhattan Clan), he suggests all of them leave with him to venture across the sea.

While it's not dwelled on much, mostly because the episode has "this is our home and we can't leave it" message, the episode brings up a pretty deep and mature point that you might not expect from a Disney toon. Chummi (the guest gummi of the episode) informs them that he was the youngest member of his warren and once all the others were gone, he was left out on his own. And he doesn't want to leave Cubbi, the youngest of the Gummi Glen group, to go through the same thing he did. The others have also thought about that, which is why they do encourage Cubbi to go along, even though he does end up staying with them in the end.

Gummi Bears does bring up the notion of being the last of their kind a few times, but never fully dwells on it because it's also established that the majority of them left ages ago but doesn't bring up the possibility that they all died out. At the same time, the fact that this episode brings up such heavier topics like the one kid having to be alone before their kind can return isn't ignored either.

Over "Gargoyles" it isn't dwelled on much either due to life getting pretty exciting for the clan in a short time, but I can also imagine the idea of the the Trio having to lose their mentors and then each of them to time has to weigh upon them as well. [/SPOILER]

MATT - Thanks. I should probably re-listen to the podcasts again some time, to note the other "audio-clips" in them. [SPOILER] I recall a few non-"Gargoyles" ones, including the "superstitious and cowardly" lot song from "Batman: the Musical" in "Batman Beyond" - linked to Goliath's unwitting Batman quote in "A Little Crazy", and the "Macbeth" sequence from "Blackadder the Third". [S/POILER]

Not to mention the more unusual beginnings to some of the podcasts, like new speeches from the voice actors or [SPOILER] the opening of "Future Tense" with the list of all the characters killed in the episode [/SPOILER].

The scariest thing about that argument was that both contenders shared the same IP address; it seems that someone's developed an artificial intelligence at war with itself.

On to more pleasant matters.

PHOENICIAN - I'd like to thank you for submitting a detailed review of "A Little Crazy" to the "Ask Greg" questions. As I've mentioned, we really could use more "Gargoyles" questions in it (I really ought to have submitted my reviews of the various "Gargoyles" comics from Dynamite; I suppose that Greg Weisman's long vacation from answering questions might have had something to do with it).

I've also recently been listening again to the ending of the "Voices From the Eyrie" podcasts, specifically to the ending-quotes; it had struck me for a while that this was something I ought to do. Each podcast ended with an "audio clip", usually from "Gargoyles", though there were three cases (technically two and a half- I'll explain below) from elsewhere. Here's the full list, along with a few comments. (I've enclosed it in "spoiler tags", in case anyone here wants to discover them for themselves.) The quotes are taken from memory, and may not be completely accurate - though I hope they'll be in the "close enough" category.

[SPOILER] 1. DEVELOPING THE SHOW: Some conversation from an episode of "Adventures of the Gummi Bears", to be precise, the "Night of the Gargoyle" episode (where Duke Igthorne sent a malevolent living gargoyle to King Gregor, pretending it was from the Gummis). Very appropriate, given that "Adventures of the Gummi Bears" was one of the inspirations for "Gargoyles", and an episode involving a gargoyle....

2. MAKING THE SHOW: A promo for the show: "Their time has come to reclaim the night". (This is the "one-half" exception I mentioned above; it wasn't part of the show itself, but was from an ad for it.)

3. "AWAKENING PART ONE": Goliath explaining to Demona how "It is the nature of humankind to fear what they do not understand. Their ways are not our ways."

4. "AWAKENING PART TWO": Xanatos's famous line "Pay a man enough, and he'll walk barefoot into Hell."

5. "AWAKENING PART THREE": Goliath asking Elisa, after rescuing her, once more what she was doing in the castle - "And try not to fall off the building this time". (One of those moments that shows he's got a sense of humor, underneath all that grand solemnity.)

6. "AWAKENING PART FOUR": Elisa's "Lot to go through for a piece of lawn sculpture" line.

7. "AWAKENING PART FIVE": Xanatos's "Without me, you'd still be gathering moss" line to Goliath.

8. NEW PERSPECTIVES: AWAKENING: Goliath telling Demona, in "Awakening Part Four", "With you by my side, I can do anything." (From a hindsight point of view, that joyful tone will feel much more melancholy, given that before the night is out, he'll discover just how much his "angel of the night" has changed - an even bigger blow than when he simply thought she was dead, to having changed for the worse.)

9. "THE THRILL OF THE HUNT": Lexington saying about the Pack, "They're just like us! They defend the innocent, and they do it on television!" (A rare moment of "Gargoyles" going meta - and not the last such moment we'll see on this list.)

10. "TEMPTATION": Lexington's "You rode a horse once" line to Brooklyn. (One of the humorous lines, in contrast for the more somber moments that this episode is best-known for - but I suspect that the full exchange between Brooklyn and Demona would have been too long for an "audio-quote".)

11. "DEADLY FORCE": The exchange between Owen and Goliath after Goliath destroys the remaining particle beam accelerators ("Mr. Xanatos isn't going to like this." "I'll be happy to take up the matter with him."). (Certainly one of the best choices for an "audio-quote"; the really big moment in this episode, of course, is Broadway shooting Elisa, but that was too visual to work well for audio format.)

12. "ENTER MACBETH": Macbeth's line about Demona, "Know her? I named her!" (Definitely one of the biggest moments in this episode.)

13. "THE EDGE": Xanatos saying to Goliath, "If you're going to be picky, we won't get anywhere."

14. 'LONG WAY TILL MORNING": Demona's "I don't know who's the bigger fool...." line.

15. "HER BROTHER'S KEEPER": Hyena offering the Pack fan at the gala an autograph - across his face.

16. "RE-AWAKENING": Xanatos's cry of "It's alive! Alive! I've always wanted to say that."

17. "LEADER OF THE PACK": Xanatos's "Revenge is a sucker's game..." speech.

18. "METAMORPHOSIS": Xanatos telling Sevarius he overplayed his part.

19. "LEGION": Coldstone switching rapidly from one gargoyle soul inside him to another to another....

20. "A LIGHTHOUSE IN THE SEA OF TIME": Jeffrey Robbins's closing speech about books (another case of "What other quote could it be?").

21. "THE MIRROR": The exchange between Goliath and the "gargoyle-ized" Elisa ("I never realized how beautiful you were." "You thought I was ugly?" "Well - careful, updraft!")

22. "THE SILVER FALCON": Glasses' cry of "That wacko dame took a dive!"

23. "EYE OF THE BEHOLDER": The Xanatos-Goliath exchange of "So now you know my weakness." "Only you would regard love as a weakness."

24. "VOWS": Petros Xanatos's "simple American penny" speech.

25. "CITY OF STONE PART ONE": Demona's "What have I - what have they done to you?" moment. (Another case of "What else could it be?")

26. "CITY OF STONE PART TWO": Demona's eager "Another human bites the dust - or rather, turns to dust" during her rampage.

27. "CITY OF STONE PART THREE": Macbeth and Demona's exchange ("You are the answer." "I am uninterested in the question.")

28. "CITY OF STONE PART FOUR": "The access code is - alone." (Yet another case of "What other line could they have possibly chosen?)

29. THE GARGOYLES FANDOM: THEN AND NOW: Goliath's line from "The Mirror" about his strength depending not on "brute force" but "true friends".

30. NEW PERSPECTIVES: CITY OF STONE: Macbeth's "golden age" speech from "City of Stone Part Three".

31. "HIGH NOON": The Weird Sisters as Desdemona's line of "Even shadows must be true to their shade".

32. "OUTFOXED": Fox telling her father how just asking for Cyberbiotics wouldn't be any fun, compared to trying to take it from him.

33. AND NOW A WORD... FROM DYNAMITE COMICS: An exchange between Goliath and Demona from "Temptation" - "So you did survive." "I always survive." (Drawing on the episode's much more serious side, this time.

34. "REVELATIONS": Mace Malone's "You should see the dental plan" line.

35. "DOUBLE JEOPARDY"" Thailog's "You two didn't go to all this trouble..." line to Xanatos and Sevarius.

36. "UPGRADE": Officer Morgan wondering where to take the upgraded Pack: "a hospital, a machine shop, or a vet?"

37. "PROTECTION": Goliath's infamous "Jalapena!" moment.

38. "THE CAGE": Xanatos's line, "He's the scientist. You're just the experiment. Oh, hello, Goliath, almost didn't see you there."

39. "THE PRICE": The Macbeth robot's catch-phrases. (Which might be a bit too soon thanks to the "bot-invasions" we've been having. Of course, the best moments in this episode - Xanatos and Hudson's exchanges - might be a bit long for an ending "audio-quote", and Owen's winding up with a stone hand is another "definitely visual" moment.

40. "AVALON PART ONE": Constantine saying he doesn't like gargoyle eggs. (Presumably not even scrambled - please forgive me. That was a very sick and tasteless remark.)

41. "AVALON PART TWO": The two Archmages' exchange over what to do with the Grimorum Aracnorum, leading to the Archmage eating it.

42. "AVALON PART THREE": Goliath and the dying Magus's conversation.

43. THE 30TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION BEGINS: The final (to date) "audio clip" not from "Gargoyles" itself, being Jennifer Anderson's comment on Wyvern's entrance into "Gargoyles". (The YouTube version used a clip from the Rankin/Bass adaptation of "The Hobbit", featuring Smaug; this is the only YouTube version of any of the podcasts I've seen so far, so I don't know if other such versions had different endings.)

44. "SHADOWS OF THE PAST": Elisa describing the cave as "creepier than the morgue at midnight".

45. "HERITAGE": Raven animating the totem-beasts.

46. "KINGDOM": Xanatos saying "Do I really need an excuse to have a good time in my own home?"

47. "MONSTERS": Sevarius's "If it gets any more saccharine in there..." line.

48. "GOLEM": Goliath's realization that they're meant to be on the Avalon World Tour and should see it through to the end.

49. "SANCTUARY": Goliath comforting Macbeth with the hopes of finding the right someone - but advising him to see her at night first.

50. VOICES FROM THE EYRIE - LIVE: Macbeth's golden age" speech from "City of Stone Part Three" again, but this time with the exchange with Demona after it about being respected or feared.

51. WE LIVE AGAIN!: Appropriately for the title, Goliath's joyful cry to the rest of the Manhattan clan in "Awakening Part Two", "You're awake! You're alive! We're together again!"

52. "M. I. A.": A couple of quotes from Griff about the need to stop the Nazis.

53. "GRIEF": Wolf's "Well, shave my chest and call me Baldy."

54. "THE HOUND OF ULSTER": The exchange between Molly and Rory's father: "Hello, Mr. Dugan. "Hmph. Molly."

55. "WALKABOUT": Dingo's "Always fancied a trip to Disneyland" line.

56. "MARK OF THE PANTHER": Goliath and Diane Maza's exchange where Diane states that she can take care of herself.

57. "PENDRAGON": King Arthur and Griff's meeting (where the sceptical Griff says "And I'm the Queen Mum").

58. "EYE OF THE STORM": Goliath saying that they'll lug Angela and Bronx along as if they're luggage rather than members of his clan.

59. "THE NEW OLYMPIANS": Proteus talking (in one of his "really enjoying the moment" pieces) about how he murdered Taurus's father. (A line of Proteus certainly felt appropriate here, given that particular podcast's focus on Roddy MacDowall.

60. "THE GREEN": Jackal booking Hyena on board the airplane to New York, first class.

61. "SENTINEL": Goliath and Elisa's "King Arthur and the Holy Grail" exchange.

62. "BUSHIDO": Elisa telling Goliath about the reporters about to make him and his fellow gargoyles TV stars, to Goliath's horror. (Another "meta" moment.)

63. "CLOUD FATHERS": Xanatos's "First real stab at cliched villainy" line.

64. "ILL MET BY MOONLIGHT": The exchange with Titania about Oberon at the end (the one that goes "Does that mean he's always right?" "Not while he's married.").

65. "FUTURE TENSE": The exchange between "Xanatos" and Goliath, starting with the "Alas, poor Yorick" parody.

66. "THE GATHERING PART ONE": Hudson's great line, "We're not the last. We're not alone."

And (for now) that's the lot. I look forward to seeing what other "audio clips" the podcasts to come will be ending with. (And I wonder what they'll do when they reach the comics. Presumably Bishansky and Jennifer Anderson are already discussing that, with just eight episodes left of the "Disney Afternoon" phase of the "Gargoyles" (I doubt we'll see a podcast dedicated to the "Goliath Chronicles"). Special quotes created for the podcast like Zehra Fazal's "The story is told..." opening? [/SPOILER]
