  12. Hey flurrymoon, I liked the video! Just a suggestion because it comes up often in your videos, if you don't know how to say something maybe you could google it and write it down?

  18. Calico Critters are super cute but I also love Lil Woodzes and Honeybee Arces, though admittedly I am biased as they made owls and foxes. Will you do a deep dive on The Snorks one day? It was basically made because the creator, despite helping bring The Smurfs to the US, wanted The Smurfs to be more mainstream, but Peyo disagreed so they split and the creator needed something to fill the void. After buying the rights to characters called "The Diskies", he changed their name to The Snorks and was able to comission a series from Hanna Barbera in 1984. Unfortunately, they never got as big as The Smurfs and the shows was cancelled after the fourth season. A shame as The Snorks had more character development [see Junior progress from a bully in the first two seasons to being someone Allstar and crew can hang out with in seasons 3 and 4], more female characters [to be fair, The Smurfs are getting better about this nowadays], and a lot of interesting underwater lore. The franchise also doesn't have as many problematic elements as The Smurfs had [I still love The Smurfs, but I'm very critical of their early years and some of the episodes from the shows]. They also had some really adorable merch, including Schelich figures with really neat designs [including an ultra rare Junior figure], some books, and a board game. There was even an Ice Capades show at one point!
