i fukcing hate this show

This is the best scene in the entirety of IZ imo it’s literally perfect

according to the staff commentary for this episode, the script actually called for heavy traffic to be rushing past Dib and Zim in this scene, which is why they’re shouting at each other, and you can even still sort of hear the sound effects

but then, for whatever reason, in the finished episode they just

forgot the cars

Other things like this include:

• the time the animation accidentally came back with one absurdly gigantic man running in the foreground, to which they decided to just add thunderous, stomping sounds.
• The time some walnuts came back in CG when they didn’t request any walnuts to be in CG, which at the time was very very expensive compared to now and contributed in the long run to their budgetary problems
• The time they scripted a giant monster (the mutant hamster, Ultra Peepi) walking through the city and the animation came out looking unintentionally like he was boogying to music so they inserted a bass voice singing “oooohhh, yyyeeeaahhhhh, ultra peeepiii”

I’m sure there are probably a bunch of others, I know there were a few points in the commentary where they were just “wait, who did this? Why did this happen?” - “I don’t remember, was it you??”

Then there were all those times the commentary just abruptly cut out and you can tell it’s probably because their conversations got too morbid or too filthy for a product with Nickelodeon’s branding on it
