Trivia / Dorbees: Making Decisions

Go To

  • Acting for Two: Three of the seven voice actors in this production (Benjy Gaither, Marshall Hall, and Tyler Smith) voice multiple characters (especially the former two).
  • Copiously Credited Creator: As with other Live Bait Productions videos, Benjy Gaither is the director, main writer, producer, voice actor, and chief animator. This also applies to almost everyone else in the crew, as they too wear multiple hats on top of acting in the production.
  • Follow the Leader: It's pretty obvious that Dorbees, much like its sister series Gaither's Pond, was at least partially trying to cash in on the then-recent popularity of VeggieTales, also being a computer-animated cartoon with simplistic character designs and Christian morals.
  • Keep Circulating the Tapes: After Live Bait stopped selling VHS and DVD copies, the film became lost media until it reemerged on YouTube in 2016.
  • One-Episode Wonder: "Making Decisions" was the only Dorbees video released.
  • Stillborn Franchise: As detailed below, the film was intended to be the first instalment in a series of Dorbees videos.
  • What Could Have Been: As mentioned above, a full series of Dorbees videos was planned, and the second one after "Making Decisions" was already in development by the time of the latter's release. However, all that ended up coming of this unnamed second video was a handful of promotional stills advertised on the Live Bait Productions website between 2001 and 2002, making them the only remnant of the planned full Dorbees series.
