New Video - What the HELL is Miracle Star?

You have covered so many shameless ripoffs in your time-some of which are worse than others (looking at YOU, Finding Jesus Duology)-but this one is probably the most bizarre one yet. The fact that it would shamelessly rip off Gumball, right up to recycling its plot points and animations. The fact that it was all done to promote milk. The fact that Gumball itself would make their famous Copycats episode in order to get back at Miracle Star for ripping it off. All of which makes for a crazy and wild ride involving a cartoon that you've been itching to talk about for so long, and it just so happens that it is the first What the HELL is...video of 2022! Having seen samples of Miracle Star during your recent Twitch stream, I knew that you would spend quite some time explaining how much of a ripoff the show is, and how it got away with things that even Gumball wouldn't touch (such as the Miracle Star mom's...umm...added attributes). It was also cool to see just how Gumball got back at Miracle Star on account of the latter being a blatant ripoff and how it did so in a clever and entertaining way. I reckon the episode itself should be required viewing for anyone who dares to make any more shameless ripoffs (quick...someone show the episode to WowNow before they make Finding Jesus 3!). As for Miracle Star itself, it is weird and crazy, and even if the lack of English subbed-or-dubbed episodes meant that you had a tough time trying to follow some of the episodes, I think we can universally agree that it was unoriginal, a money-making scam (or at least it might as well be such, though NFTs are still way worse in that regard), and was mercifully cut short after a short time. I'm glad you have made it through another bizarre ripoff, Saber...you deserve a medal for all the madness you go through to cover this and other infamous cartoons! I'll see you around, my good sir! =)
