    The narrator discusses the contrasting receptions of two animated shows: Hasbin Hotel and Smiling Friends. While Hasbin Hotel faced widespread criticism online for being 'cringe' and its creator attracting controversy, Smiling Friends was more self-aware and welcomed a lighthearted, non-serious approach. This self-awareness helped buffer Smiling Friends from heavy criticism, a strategy not employed by the creator of Hasbin Hotel. The creator's tendency to react to every criticism has made her subject to online trolling, further deepening the divide in public perception between the two shows. While Hasbin Hotel has a devoted fanbase, its overreliance on celebrity voice actors and excessive use of swear words have drawn additional criticism. In contrast, Smiling Friends uses its voice talent and language more strategically, boosting its popularity as an accessible, humorous show versatile in content and receptive to its audience's culture.

    within the last couple of years I
  • 00:00:01
    seriously don't think there have been
  • 00:00:02
    two shows that have blown up more in
  • 00:00:04
    polar opposite directions than hasbin
  • 00:00:07
    hotel and smiling friends seriously
  • 00:00:09
    before IID even heard of hasbin hotel's
  • 00:00:11
    premise all I saw online was why I
  • 00:00:13
    should hate the show with an entire Army
  • 00:00:16
    of commenters talking about how cringe
  • 00:00:18
    it was and that also includes the
  • 00:00:19
    comments that were by pollings many of
  • 00:00:21
    you just outright said the show was dog
  • 00:00:23
    but before I knew it I'd found myself
  • 00:00:25
    listening to the songs and memes video
  • 00:00:27
    edits and just outright Clips online
  • 00:00:30
    fine and I will lie I could totally see
  • 00:00:32
    why this both picked up in popularity
  • 00:00:34
    and in IR I was both tapping my feet to
  • 00:00:37
    the songs like loser while
  • 00:00:39
    simultaneously questioning the strange
  • 00:00:41
    designs of the show's characters like
  • 00:00:43
    why does this girl have an ex on her eye
  • 00:00:46
    that Clips over her hair H how come all
  • 00:00:49
    the Devils look like cartoonishly
  • 00:00:51
    similar to one another with little to no
  • 00:00:53
    alteration and why are all the Angels
  • 00:00:55
    literally just the same design but
  • 00:00:57
    they're laad well well there's no
  • 00:01:00
    question that the show has a distinctive
  • 00:01:02
    look reminiscent of something you'd see
  • 00:01:03
    at a Hot Topic in the early 2000s and as
  • 00:01:06
    a 30-year-old Boomer myself that isn't
  • 00:01:08
    much of a slight against it however most
  • 00:01:10
    of the criticism that has been directed
  • 00:01:12
    at the show goes beyond its aesthetic as
  • 00:01:14
    its crater seems mired in controversy is
  • 00:01:17
    any of that controversy legitimate or is
  • 00:01:19
    it just drummed up internet Buzz before
  • 00:01:22
    Mr Boon gets into the thick of it please
  • 00:01:23
    consider clicking that like button
  • 00:01:25
    subscribing and dinging the bell for
  • 00:01:27
    more spicy content on television and
  • 00:01:29
    film now let's get back to that nasy
  • 00:01:31
    chap who can't afford a mic battery
  • 00:01:33
    since it keeps slowly dying on a mid
  • 00:01:35
    recording session one clear difference
  • 00:01:36
    between the two shows is that while Zack
  • 00:01:38
    hael and Michael kuszak are incredibly
  • 00:01:40
    self-aware even going as far as to call
  • 00:01:42
    their show stupid we we the PO the point
  • 00:01:45
    of the show was just to not make anybody
  • 00:01:48
    even think or or or feel anything but
  • 00:01:51
    just maybe a laugh or or or fear you
  • 00:01:53
    know one of the case of the that was on
  • 00:01:54
    purpose that was intentional to just get
  • 00:01:56
    a something as close to a genuine
  • 00:01:58
    reaction as we could pop seems to lack
  • 00:02:01
    this self-awareness that is key to a
  • 00:02:03
    Show's survival online unfortunately as
  • 00:02:05
    you'll come to see she simply cannot
  • 00:02:07
    help herself from responding to every
  • 00:02:09
    criticism thrown her way even the ones
  • 00:02:12
    clearly baiting her into a rage yeah
  • 00:02:14
    remember the old anage don't feed the
  • 00:02:16
    troll well she kind of just throws
  • 00:02:18
    everything at the troll wen't for the
  • 00:02:20
    fact that she's clearly very very very
  • 00:02:22
    rich off the show and many other shows
  • 00:02:24
    she's done she would likely become
  • 00:02:26
    another LOL cowl online but yeah if
  • 00:02:28
    you've been on the internet for long
  • 00:02:30
    enough you'll know that one way to
  • 00:02:31
    absolutely derail any level of Goodwill
  • 00:02:34
    coming your way is by being defensive in
  • 00:02:36
    response to criticism or feeding the
  • 00:02:38
    trolls I really think there should be a
  • 00:02:40
    case study one day just on how two shows
  • 00:02:43
    can be so vastly different in terms of
  • 00:02:45
    how they're perceived online as your
  • 00:02:47
    standard Dingus I hardly even knew about
  • 00:02:49
    this Vivy poop character or her show but
  • 00:02:51
    I was exposed to so much of the hate
  • 00:02:53
    briting that I didn't even have a chance
  • 00:02:55
    to think if I liked it or not to be
  • 00:02:57
    honest I have watched quite a bit of it
  • 00:02:59
    and and it's not entirely for me but I'm
  • 00:03:02
    not here to bash its fan base see we can
  • 00:03:04
    all have different tastes and things and
  • 00:03:06
    you know not bully others in their
  • 00:03:08
    tastes unless you don't like pineapple
  • 00:03:10
    pizza Nickelback or candy corn come the
  • 00:03:12
    [ __ ] on man don't be that Reddit in life
  • 00:03:14
    that said has been clearly has its
  • 00:03:16
    dedicated fan base that loves the show
  • 00:03:18
    or else it wouldn't even be as famous as
  • 00:03:20
    it is if not for its fans it would
  • 00:03:22
    likely blip out of existence faster than
  • 00:03:24
    that Mr burum show that literally no one
  • 00:03:27
    likes not even the people they made it
  • 00:03:29
    for so yeah that leads me to asking what
  • 00:03:31
    is it that makes everyone hate the show
  • 00:03:33
    so much and love smiling friends you
  • 00:03:35
    couldn't escape any corner of the
  • 00:03:37
    internet that didn't have wimbly memes
  • 00:03:39
    when hasb been Hotel released you
  • 00:03:40
    couldn't avoid a single meme that wasn't
  • 00:03:43
    bashing the show or its fan base for
  • 00:03:45
    just existing well to begin with from
  • 00:03:47
    what I could find we're smiling friends
  • 00:03:49
    is a show that very clearly wears its
  • 00:03:51
    heart on his sleeve for independent
  • 00:03:53
    voice actors artists and the like has
  • 00:03:55
    been otel while starting with humble
  • 00:03:57
    internet Beginnings decided to replace
  • 00:03:59
    its lesser known voice actors for a cast
  • 00:04:02
    with well-known celebrities and while I
  • 00:04:04
    personally applaud the inclusion of the
  • 00:04:06
    Arbiter and Dr failer because holy I
  • 00:04:09
    don't think loser would hit as hard as
  • 00:04:11
    it does without his bars it is a bit
  • 00:04:13
    sussy that Vivy poop really dropped all
  • 00:04:16
    the talented voice actors that were a
  • 00:04:18
    part of the show previously so this is
  • 00:04:20
    an easy mark on the show for being a
  • 00:04:22
    little bit off outside of recasting
  • 00:04:24
    voice actors what else makes the show so
  • 00:04:27
    grading for some well one other thing I
  • 00:04:29
    noticed right right away is definitely
  • 00:04:31
    the over Alliance on the use of swear
  • 00:04:33
    words love putting my name on the best
  • 00:04:36
    watch your profan and well I'm not an
  • 00:04:38
    anti-wear person I can certainly see why
  • 00:04:41
    this would annoy some even the most
  • 00:04:42
    unbiased reviews like my own that I'd
  • 00:04:45
    watched on the show had the same common
  • 00:04:47
    critique well yes a show like smiling
  • 00:04:49
    friends isn't afraid to throw an F bom
  • 00:04:51
    once in a while it's not something
  • 00:04:53
    that's used as frivolously as hasb been
  • 00:04:55
    otel for every swear word that hasb been
  • 00:04:57
    spams smiling friends makes a strategic
  • 00:05:00
    use of the swears each time the swear
  • 00:05:02
    isn't heavily emphasized like they are
  • 00:05:04
    and has been and often reflect a
  • 00:05:06
    realistic fear or annoyance the
  • 00:05:08
    character
  • 00:05:10
    has how many people killed this guy but
  • 00:05:13
    even then while it was aired on
  • 00:05:15
    television smiling friends actually
  • 00:05:17
    censored each word which arguably in my
  • 00:05:19
    opinion made the scenes a whole lot
  • 00:05:20
    funnier the effort they called again
  • 00:05:22
    except for that instance because he
  • 00:05:24
    didn't actually swear and that actually
  • 00:05:26
    made it kind of more funny that it was
  • 00:05:28
    bleeped out God bless Mr your boss
  • 00:05:30
    whereas smiling friends uses the swear
  • 00:05:32
    words in the show sparsely hasbin
  • 00:05:34
    Creator will constantly defend that this
  • 00:05:37
    is a realistic way that the characters
  • 00:05:38
    should talk and while yes of course
  • 00:05:41
    everybody in our day-to-day life swears
  • 00:05:43
    when you're watching a show it does come
  • 00:05:45
    off as a bit too much at times that's
  • 00:05:47
    just the magic of TV and movies you
  • 00:05:50
    don't always have to be applying realism
  • 00:05:52
    to everything cuz it just doesn't work
  • 00:05:54
    that way I mean it certainly doesn't
  • 00:05:56
    make the show funnier if I'm being
  • 00:05:58
    honest what if the writer is a
  • 00:05:59
    attempting to create a story where
  • 00:06:01
    nothing much happens where characters
  • 00:06:03
    swear every 2 seconds it's just like
  • 00:06:05
    reality you just say all the time and
  • 00:06:08
    why the are you wasting my two precious
  • 00:06:11
    hours with your
  • 00:06:13
    movie I don't have any use for it to
  • 00:06:16
    many including myself it just comes off
  • 00:06:18
    as trying far too hard to be mature by
  • 00:06:20
    substituting actual mature character
  • 00:06:22
    writing for swear wordss which just
  • 00:06:24
    doesn't work and while I'm sure there
  • 00:06:26
    are numerous occasions in which the show
  • 00:06:28
    is pretty mature in a way those moments
  • 00:06:30
    are somewhat negated by just how
  • 00:06:33
    over-the-top the writing can be at times
  • 00:06:35
    this is actually much more a symptom of
  • 00:06:37
    a greater issue with many adult animated
  • 00:06:40
    series these days but that's a topic for
  • 00:06:42
    another time and hey if you want to hear
  • 00:06:44
    me yamp about that some other time by
  • 00:06:46
    all means let me know in the comments
  • 00:06:48
    below from what I can tell hasbin hotel
  • 00:06:50
    is a series that squarely falls into
  • 00:06:52
    that niche of shows that many love and
  • 00:06:54
    many love to hate it's the kind of show
  • 00:06:57
    that has all the makings of a great
  • 00:06:58
    series solid animations interesting
  • 00:07:01
    perhaps overly cluttered designs and
  • 00:07:04
    some damn fun musical set pieces but
  • 00:07:07
    what ultimately holds it back is its
  • 00:07:09
    creator and her incessant need to
  • 00:07:11
    respond to criticism making her an easy
  • 00:07:14
    target online in conjunction with this
  • 00:07:16
    the show is made for a highly specific
  • 00:07:18
    demographic which certainly is not the
  • 00:07:21
    majority of the internet smiling friends
  • 00:07:23
    however is a show that's reverence for
  • 00:07:25
    internet culture and understanding of
  • 00:07:27
    its audience propelled it to becoming a
  • 00:07:29
    show some say is the new Rick and Morty
  • 00:07:31
    killer I mean if we're being honest here
  • 00:07:33
    Rick and Morty itself is really the only
  • 00:07:35
    Rick and Morty killer of itself but oh
  • 00:07:38
    well and though Zach and Michael have
  • 00:07:40
    had their share of edgy content Creation
  • 00:07:42
    in the past like Vivy pop has they've
  • 00:07:44
    since matured and shown that they can
  • 00:07:46
    handle people's criticism online Vivy
  • 00:07:48
    poop herself has various allegations
  • 00:07:50
    thrown her way and while none of them
  • 00:07:52
    truly stuck she certainly doesn't help
  • 00:07:54
    her case by being so vocal online
  • 00:07:56
    whereas Zach and Michael remain reserved
  • 00:07:59
    when a dressing comments online and
  • 00:08:01
    remain within the Public's good graces
