Well, since it was said in the 'Badvertisement' thread that there should be a thread for ALL the threads so they're easier to keep track of.
Anyway, I couldn't find a thread on a particular short I caught about ten minutes ago (I didn't even know they aired on TV in Britain), so... 'Birthday Cake Bloos'? Anyone seen this one before, cos I've certainly never heard of it until now...

No, haven't heard of that one...

Uh oh...was it me who said that? Because I certainly think each short should have its own discussion thread...we can use this one for discussing shorts in general though.

You know what I loved about the Foster's shorts, as impossible as it was to find them in the beginning, you could always count on them appearing on eventually at Youtube.com............now not so much anymore :(.
Cartoon Network being the [explicit deleted] has just YANKED the "pizza short" from my youtube account and pretty much eliminated EVERY SINGLE short from youtube with the exception of the "zapped up" one.
Gee, thanks alot CN, as if I didn't have enough problems to worry about.

The supercartoonnetwork.co.uk site has two new shorts: A Chore Thing and Hide and Bloo Seek. These were decent, not the best shorts ever. Hide and Bloo Seek was better.

I just saw one, called "Backpack Attack", where Jackie Khones asks Bloo about Mac's backpack, which makes Bloo want to know "What is UP with his backpack??" One of Bloo's ideas involve spitting orange juice on Mac's red t-shirt. When Mac takes the shirt off...
The white sleeves turn out to be a WHITE SWEATER.
But Bloo still doesn't give up, and tears his backpack off, and dumps out the contents, revealing basic school junk.
THEN Jackie asks Eduardo "What's up with Coco's eggs?" which leads Eduardo running after Coco, and then the short ends.

Didn't you know that M ac wore a sweater under his shirt? When Terrence holds him up by the back of his shirt at the very beginning of the piot, his shirt is lifted up a little showing the sweater underneath...

Nope, only his skin is shown then. Sorry.

Really? Well, whether it's shown on the pilot or not, Mac has always worn a sweater underneath his shirt... I have no idea how I knew that though...

I don't know if it's a "sweater" or not but its plainly obvious he wears a longsleeve white shirt under a red t-shirt...The little black marks on the white sleeves could indicate a sweater though, easy.

I seen the "Backpack Attack" short. Mac does wear a sweater under his red shirt. The short is all right. I like how Bloo is trying to figure out what Mac has in his backpack, which was his school stuff. It started when Jackie asked Bloo what Mac keeps in his backpack. You gotta like Jackie.

I always figured it was one of those thermal sweaters worn underneath a red shirt, anyway.

I always saw Mac's "undershirt" to be one of those waffle-weave thermals. It doesn't seem near bulky enough to be an actual sweater. And I've seen a lot of waffle-weave thermals the last few years. They're no longer just considered "long underwear" like they were 20/30 years ago. So that would make sense... I even have a few waffle-weave tops myself. :)
As for the short, I thought it was good. And it was interesting seeing Mac without his trademark red shirt for a few seconds. As well as what's actually in the equally trademark backpack. I had seen it once before, but today I managed to record it. Yay! :bloosmirk: I think it's one of my favorite shorts (although there's still....uh....I think 2 that I haven't seen yet).
