Johnny Bravo

I used to love Johnny Bravo on his first season. It was witty, sharp, and the usage of Bravo's Michael Jackson moves was awesome. The new seasons are still pretty good, but a lot of the things that made the old season so great is gone. Now instead of acting like Elvis or Jackson, Bravo acts a LOT like Homer Simpson, and does a worse job as well. In fact, he uses Homer's catch phrases, like "mmmmmmm," the girlie scream, and I could've sworn I heard him say "D'oh!" That's not to say that all of the creativity of the show is gone, but they should've stuck to its roots. The addition of Carl and Pops is great, and there are many good cartoons on these new series, but the creators of the first series did a better job. I still find it an enjoyable show, but the new episodes are getting less and less creative by the minute it seems.

The beginning of Johnny Bravo was excellent, as many reviewers have already stated. Johnny knew kung-fu, had an awesome car and was truly the epitome of cool.

Somewhere along the way, however, things began to change. Now Johnny Bravo had to ride a tricycle because he couldn't drive, his taking kung-fu was just a gag for being beat up by children and no one truly liked Johnny anymore; instead he was just a whipping post for the town.

This seems to happen to a lot of good shows, particularly cartoons. Someone interprets the silliness and charisma that make a character click as "stupidity," and the series goes downhill.

What makes this more disappointing is that Johnny Bravo, in its original incarnation, was a true comedic treasure.

I might have not seen every single episode of this show but I remember seeing a few. Like the christmas special episode.

It had some good voice acting including some guest stars. I know all shows must come to an end eventually but it does make me wonder if this show decided to go the One Piece/Sponge bob root who else would we have gotten in the show. Especially since there are a lot of great voice actors/actress in the voice acting industry which weren't around when this show was getting recorded.

Majority of the plot is just about Johnny trying to impress girls but failing at it and causing mayhem wherever he goes.

It also has a good theme song.

8/10

This is a hilarious cartoon from the Cartoon Network. If you like "Dexter's Laboratory", you'll also like this. It has very good animation, and excellent voice work. The episode "Hip Hop Flop" has a very good song- performed by the "Round Pound" and Johnny Bravo!

You know, I was a HUGE Johnny Bravo fan. It was an extremely witty animated program that (like Garfield and Friends, Anamainiacs, and Tiny Toons) was kind of a "satire 101" for my generation. I remember when I would look forward to every Friday night at 9 (?) because Johnny Bravo would come on. This blonde Elvis wanna be charmed the country with his hilarious attempt at love, then getting something shoved down his paints or a hard object over his head.

Then 2000 rolled around and with a new century came new characters, thus the demise of the Johnny Bravo I know and love. It was almost reincarnated as this awful mindless program that made Johnny look almost retarded. Of course they would put old Johnny Bravo in re-runs, for a while, but then they stopped. About a year ago I entirely gave up on The Cartoon Network (with the exception to Family Guy, Futurama, Aqua Teen Hungerforce, Sealab 2021, and Harvey Birdman: A.A.L). The station that once brought classic and sometimes kind of edgy original cartoons, is now a mindless output system of mostly substandard anamie cartoons.

So in conclusion, please bring Johnny Bravo to its former, FUNNY self.
