Hey everyone,
Was just wondering how many of you out here in Frank Black world watched the cartoon series "Doug" as a kid (the classic, original Nickelodeon one, not the Disney one). What did you think of it? I'd love to hear your thoughts on it. I thought it was (and still is) awesome!!! I especially loved "The Beets". Not a real band, I know, but they were just as good as one (and better than some that are out today). They were kind of made to be a cross between The Beatles and The Ramones, and listening to their music, I think you'd agree.

I was wondering if anyone here would know where I could get the mp3's of their songs, or if anyone had them. I found "Killer Tofu", but the ending is missing, and I haven't had any luck finding "I Need More Allowance" or "Shout Your Lungs Out", either.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Rock On,
Chris Hludzik, 8/17/04.

P.S., I'm serious about this, I'm not joking. Just to let you know.

I watched Doug. It was a really good show. Then they changed up the formula and it got weird...


I guess I just wasn't made for these times.

I was a big Doug fan. I even remembered the band from your title alone, hehe (read as skeeter's noise). And yeah, Doug sucked when they redid it.

Sorry, I can't help you find any mp3's, but let us know if you have any success. I wouldn't mind hearing them myself.

The BEETS!!!! I loved Doug, I don't remember what happened, I think I just stopped watching. Hey what about Rocko's Modern Life? Or Eek the Cat (not a nick cartoon it was a great fox cartoon)?

I never saw it revised, but I liked Doug on Nickelodeon back in the day... though he could've done better than Patty. :)

I saw your topic title and thought, "There's no way he's talking about The Beets from Doug", but sure enough...

I love Killer Tofu, though it was much like the I Need More Allowance tune, which I also liked, but not as much. To this day when someone says tofu, I think of that song. :)

Wasn't Skeeter's noise more like a honking sound?

Glad to see so many of you love "Doug". Like I said, I found "Killer Tofu, but the end is missing. Here's the link, if you're interested:

Rocko's modern life disturbed me. what was he? what was his dog thing doing? spunky wasn't it, kids watched that shit man, it's wrong

Ren and Stimpy, that was the future

I don't mean to sound bitter, cold, or cruel, but I am, so that's how it comes out.

I remember both Doug and Rocco's Modern Life very well. Doug was excellent. Characters like Quilman were tops.
