19 Great Moments We Missed From The Cartoons We Grew Up Watching

Cartoons are an inalienable part of our childhood, but when we are young, we don’t pay attention to many of its details. As children, we focus too much on the big picture and don’t notice all the hidden secrets. However, when you reach adulthood, you may realize, for example, that Patrick Star is not bald, that Bart Simpson’s name has a very particular meaning, and that Helga G. Pataki has finally kissed Arnold.

At the awesome.club We’ve been looking for secret data that the creators of our favorite childhood cartoons kept from us, and we’re happy to share with you everything we’ve discovered. In the end, we included a bonus about SpongeBob. Don’t miss it!

It turns out that SpongeBob’s best friend Patrick and his pet Gary are related. The starfish family tree is quite large, and we can learn a lot of interesting facts about this funny character just by studying his pedigree. This reveals, for example, that Gary and Patrick are first cousins!

Hey Arnold! It’s a cartoon that reminds us a lot of our childhood. Most of us have always thought that the main character’s clothes were a little strange: pants, a sweater and… a Scottish kilt. But actually Arnold uses a long shirtand his entire outfit is based on the style of Neil Young, a famous Canadian singer.

We probably all thought Patrick Star was bald, but we’re wrong. There is an episode where this nice starfish shows his driver’s license and there we can see more information about him. If we look closely, we will see that Patrick has hair, and it’s pink!

Bart Simpson’s full name is Bartholomew Jojo Bouvier Simpson🇧🇷 Your nickname is an anagram of the word “Brat”, which in English refers to a naughty or misbehaving child. If we look at how Bart acts throughout the show, we will agree that the name completely fits his character.

Since 1996, we’ve all been waiting for Arnold to find out who’s hiding behind Helga’s crass facade and how she feels about him. The original series has ended, but we wait for the moment to come. In 2017, he debuted Hey Arnold! In the Jungle — The Movieand we had the opportunity to see how the feelings of our favorite characters evolved. For your peace of mind, they finally kissed!

It seems the creators of Hey Arnold! finally decided to make our favorite characters reveal their feelings. During several episodes, we could see that Phoebe, Helga’s good friend, was in love with Gerald. But in Hey Arnold! In the Jungle — The Movie🇧🇷 the girl finally gives her boyfriend a kiss on the cheek. Isn’t it adorable?

Have you ever noticed that Krusty looks a lot like Homer? The show’s creator, Matt Groening, said that “the satirical concept he was looking for at the time was that the series showed a boy who didn’t respect his father and, at the same time, loved a clown who was identical to that father.” However, the idea was discarded as being too obscure and complicated.

Since 1986, Wayne Allwine has served as the voice actor on Mickey Mouse, along with Russi Taylor, who voices Minnie Mouse. While we were all very interested in what happened in the relationship of these 2 funny animated characters, it’s also lovely to know that these voice actors got married in real life.

Rugrats is a cartoon that most of us loved when we were kids. We seem to know all about the group’s brave leader Tommy, the always fearful Chuckie and the fun-loving twins Phil and Lil, but one thing we probably didn’t notice were their voices, which were voiced by women, regardless of the character’s gender.

Donnie was raised by orangutans in Borneo and later adopted by the Thornberry. This wild boy did not speak, but he made amusing sounds. These sounds were created by Flea (Michael Peter Balzary)the famous bassist of the band Red Hot Chili Peppers.

Dexter comes from a typical American family, but you can see that he has a strong accent of undetermined origin. For all fans, and those wondering why he talks like that, the creators of the series explained: “He’s a scientist, so he knows he needs a special kind of accent.” They also added: “It’s not really a German accent. It’s just from Eastern Europe.”

Eric Cartman is a nasty little boy whose name was inspired by Matt Karpman, a schoolmate of the show’s creators. South Park🇧🇷 His personality was based on the Archie Bunker patriarch of All in familyTrey Parker and Matt Stone’s favorite show. Simply put, Cartman is the representation of Archie Bunker as a child, or so these two men thought.

Mickey Mouse, Minnie, Goofy… they all wore pants except Donald Duck. Precisely because he didn’t wear pants, comics of this character were banned in Finland. However, in some episodes, you can see him wearing pants while swimming.

We can see that all Dalmatians have a countless number of random spots. Who would bother to count them? But, to be precise, it was said that there are exactly 6,469,952 spots throughout the film🇧🇷 So if 72 belong to Pongo and 68 to Perdita, the rest belong to the pups. Each one therefore has 32 spots🇧🇷

The 3 good fairies of Sleeping Beautyfrom 1959, were the inspiration for The Powerpuff Girls🇧🇷 they don’tnot only do they share the red, blue and green color scheme, but they also look alike in their names. The fairies are called Flora, Fauna and Primavera, while the powerpuff girls are Linda, Florzinha and Docinho: “the sweet one”, “the brave one” and “the tough one”.

The characters on this show have tongues of various colors, but this was not done to add a little madness to them. On one occasion, the series creator saw his son and his friends eating some candy that painted their tongues different colors. He decided to use that as inspiration and added it to the show.

On April 1, 1997, in Japan, the animated television series pokemon was broadcast for the first time. Since then, she has gained millions of fans around the world. The show has over 1,000 episodes and new chapters are released weekly in Japan and the United States. Additionally, Japanese voice actress Rica Matsumoto has given her voice to Ash Ketchum (Satoshi, in the Japanese version) all these years.

Princess Ariel’s amazing hair is loved by fans of the animated movie. However, many people complain that the physics behind it are weird, as the drawing goes under water, and it looks unrealistic. What almost none of us know is that her soft, sleek hair was inspired by astronaut Sally Ride. During the animation process, the creators studied images of this woman in space to model the mermaid’s hair.

To understand the mystery behind Mulan’s real name, we need to take a closer look at Chinese fads. His surname is Fa, but due to the grammar of his language, his family name is supposed to come first. In the animated film, when Mulan poses as a man, she introduces herself as Fa Ping, which means “flower stand”, or “vase of flowers”, and is used to describe women who are very attractive but would not do any work and are very fragile. Another meaning of this phrase is “sweet eye”.
