Line #25 YMMV/Kablam


1	* AwardSnub: The show was nominated four times for awards, and ''all of them lost''.
2	** The first was an Annie award in the category of outstanding music in an animated television program, for Lino Sound's score for ''The Off-Beats'' episode "Suave-o-Matic". (1998)
3	** The second was another Annie award, same year. This time for Outstanding Male Voice Acting, for Nandor Nevai as various voices in ''Sniz & Fondue''.
4	** The third was another Annie award in 1999, the category being Outstanding Achievement in Production Design in an Animated TV Program. The ''Jetcat'' short "Sacred Identity'' was a nominee.
5	** The fourth time was for a Young Artists Award in 1999. Julia [=McIlvaine=] was nominated for Best Young Female Voiceover in an Animated Production, for doing the voice of June.
6	* CultClassic: Sure it's no ''WesternAnimation/InvaderZim'', but it got screwed over just as badly and it has its share of fans (a lot of which are the ones who claim that Creator/{{Nickelodeon}}'s first wave of Nicktoons[[note]]''Doug'' pre-Creator/{{Disney}}, ''Rugrats'' pre-Dil, ''Ren and Stimpy'' [John K. episodes only], etc (though some people tend to make exceptions for ''WesternAnimation/RockosModernLife'')[[/note]] were the best).
7	* EnsembleDarkhorse:
8	** June and Henry, the hosts of the show, are this for the Nick fandom as a whole in a similar fashion to WesternAnimation/OswaldTheLuckyRabbit, they were long-forgotten for ''years'' up until recently with a strong fandom.
9	** Stacy, a girl from the Life with Loopy segment "Larry's Girl" that Larry falls in love with, only appeared once and with a few lines, but has gained a notable following, often being featured in fan works and provided with a deeper characterization.
10	* FanNickname: The generally-accepted episode titles are not official and taken from the [[NonIndicativeName usually-unrelated]] fake ads on the back of that episode's comic. Officially, each episode is just referred to by number. This has been such a common convention that the "Episode 29" [[PopCultureUrbanLegends urban legend]] persisted for years despite the actual episode with that number being a well-known one: "Your Logo Here".
11	* GeniusBonus: [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Stockdale Mr. Stockdale]]. You may remember him better as [[http://www.foxnews.com/images/168869/0_21_0706_stockdale.jpg this]] or [[http://billyliggett.files.wordpress.com/2008/02/hartmancarvey.jpg this]].
12	* GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff: The show is very popular in Latin America.
13	** As well as the Netherlands. In the same way as most anime, everyone hated the dubbed version shown in syndication, so by the time Nicktoons picked it up, the episodes were subtitled, with the audio still in English.
14	** ''Life with Loopy'' is the most popular short in Russia.
15	* HarsherInHindsight:
16	** One episode featured Henry and June all set to [[MilestoneCelebration celebrate the show's 100th episode]], but it turns out that Henry miscounted, and that it's not the 100th episode after all. This amusing gag is made a bit sadder when you realize that the show never made it to a 100th episode, coming short of even the halfway point at 47 episodes.
17	** In The Henry And June pilot, The first half (The duo starting their new show) has them nearly get cancelled in-universe while the second half (Henry and June going back to school hoping to get some recognition for their show), no one (besides creepy fanboy Ryan) watched their show's premiere the night before in-universe. Considering the fact that the Henry and June show lasted a single 2-episode half pilot before being not only cancelled but erased from the network's history as well as anything having to do with ''Kablam!'' besides ''Action League NOW!'', it makes the pilot strangely prophetic.
18	* HilariousInHindsight:
19	** A space alien named Film/{{Prometheus}}?
20	** One of the last things Henry and June were seen doing on Nickelodeon was promoting ''[[Anime/Pokemon3 Pokémon 3 the Movie: Spell of the Unown]]''. June's voice actor, Julia [=McIlvaine=], would eventually contribute her voice to ''VideoGame/PokemonMasters'' and ''WebAnimation/PokemonTwilightWings''.
21	* JerkassWoobie: The titular [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a0C9RPHjnGs Shizzagee]] is this when you think about it. He's extremely snarky and irritable but he's also the LastOfHisKind.
22	* SugarWiki/MostWonderfulSound: Whether she's speaking, singing or laughing, June's voice is this.
23	* PopCultureUrbanLegends: Subject of a stunningly large number of them, not least of which are that [[MissingEpisode Henry and June kiss in a lost episode 29]] and [[ScrewedByTheNetwork Nickelodeon junked two seasons worth of unaired material.]]
24	* RetroactiveRecognition:
25	** Creator/NoahSegan voiced Henry, and Creator/MischaBarton voiced Betty-Anne Bongo.
26	** Loopy was notably Creator/DanielleJudovits' first (major) voice acting role before she went on to play [[Manga/{{Naruto}} Tenten]], [[Manga/SailorMoon Naru Osaka]], [[Anime/SmilePrettyCure Glitter Spring]], and [[WesternAnimation/TheBatman Batgirl]], among others.
27	** The ''Adventures of Patchhead'' segment [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qWye1s6Muk0 featured an early appearance]] of Creator/NickOfferman.
28	* SpecialEffectFailure: ''Life with Loopy'' falls under this sometimes. However, this was more often in the older episodes, and improves as the show goes on.
29	** There's a scene in "Get Sam Donaldson's Mystery Bag!", where Henry and June are having a robot war...and one part shows that inside the robots, the duo is completely static.
30	* {{Squick}}: Ryan the creepy fanboy asking for tongue scrapings and later blood samples from Henry and June for his collection in the second half of the Henry and June show pilot.
31	* SuspiciouslySimilarSong: In one "Action League Now" short, the stock music piece "The Escape" by Dick Walter plays, which is a similar song to the theme of ''Film/TheGreatEscape''.
32	* TearJerker: June missing Henry after his resignation from the show. And many other moments due to nostalgia.
33	* UnintentionalPeriodPiece:
34	** The Henry and June wraparounds were filled to the brim with various 1990s pop culture references, and it's even more blatant in ''The Henry and June Show''. ''Action League Now!'' had a few of the pop culture references, but was nowhere near as heavy on them as Henry and June- most of the things dating the short to the late 1990s were the technology (and that most of the minor characters were Playskool dollhouse dolls from the early '90s). ''Life With Loopy'' almost averts it, with the exception of the technology shown (the first minute of the first episode even has Larry holding a boombox and waving around an audio cassette, for example) and some of the clothes and hairstyles on the kid characters.
35	** In Season 2, Henry and June's opening dance is the Macarena. Starting in Season 3, they perform a Riverdance piece.
36	* ViewerGenderConfusion: Many fans were shocked when they found out that [[{{Tomboy}} June]] was a girl.
