Go To

The series is essentially listening to a grown man yell at a fictional preschooler. With that in mind, FU DW is bound to deliver on the comedy.

General

  • Every acknowledgement of Furry Confusion, marked with a quip of "which is weird when you remember [X animals] are people in this world... and also [X animals]."
  • D.W.'s growing murder count, including Lisa, Sharky, and Marie-Hélène, for slighting her in small ways, or even just existing.
  • "(X character) tells (Y character) to fuck off."
  • The Running Gag of Matt referring to the Tibble twins as "Tibble [derogatory word that also begins with a "T"]s.", including but not limited to, "Tibble turds", "Tibble tumors", and "Tibble toilets". Here is a video compilation of all of these insulting nicknames.

  • Matt's WTF reaction to Mr. Read's sandwich costume. He later says that Mr. Read definitely wears it in the bedroom.

"DW Loses Her Voice (And Makes Arthur Her Cuck)"

  • "Miracle of miracles, D.W. has lost her voice."
  • Matt suggests that Mr. Read is absent from the majority of the episode because he left as soon as D.W. got sick to go off and bang Mr. Ratburn.

    Matt: Touché, D.W.. Touche.

"DW BREAKS HER NECK"

  • D.W. is initially reluctant to partner with Emily, but picks her over a Chocolate Labrador boy on the other side of her. Matt responds "The fuck was that about?", and adds "RACIST?!?" above D.W.'s head.
  • Matt gets distracted by a rabbit girl in the class (actually an Off-Model Lisa) with blue fur, and shouts "WHY IS THIS KID BLUE??".

"DW CAN'T READ"

  • "D.W. is mad at her parents for giving her a difficult name, while the rest of us are mad at them for giving birth to her in the first place."
  • Arthur assures D.W. that her book won't explode if she opens it. He opens the book, and it promptly blows up.

"DW MEETS HER MATCH"

  • When Matt introduces Cousin Cora, he plays a clip from the SpongeBob SquarePants episode, "Wet Painters", with D.W.'s head over the first giant paint bubble, and Cora's over the second. The two heads then merge to form the head of Caillou.
  • Matt questioning if Cora's mom was standing on D.W. when she says goodnight to Cora.
  • The episode ends with Matt giving Cora an FU for a change, saying that anyone who makes D.W. look like a hero deserves a special place in Hell next to Adolf Hitler and Barney the Dinosaur.

"LAW AND ORDER: FU DW"

  • The episode ends with Matt giving FUs to four different characters; Mr. Read for rushing to blame Arthur for cracking the glass plate, Mrs. Read for placing the glass plate next to an open window, Ms. Perske for being the Caillou narrator, and of course, D.W. for making the tape that got Arthur in trouble in the first place.

"HOW DW RUINED CHRISTMAS"

  • When DW mails her letter to Santa, only to get mocked by Timmy and Tommy (whom Matt refers to as "the Tibble Turtledoves"), Matt has trouble distinguishing the Tibbles since they're both wearing red.
  • When David mentions making a historically authentic Christmas dinner, the kind they might have actually served back in Bethlehem when Jesus was born, Matt is impressed that Arthur, a PBS show namedropped Jesus. He then tries to imagine which animals can and can't talk in the nativity scene, although it would explain the existence of the Easter Bunny.
  • When DW mistakes Uncle Fred for Santa, only to barge into Arthur when he's peeing as she tries to show Santa to David, Matt says "DW doesn't find Santa, but does get a full view of her brother's Kris Kringle."
  • When Matt points out how in 2001, every African-American cartoon child character celebrated Kwanzaa,note  he plays an AI-generated sound clip of Dr. Doofenshmirtz saying "If I Had a Nickel... for every Christmas cartoon in 2001 that had at least one kid celebrating Kwanzaa, I'd have five nickels, which isn't a lot, but it's weird they all came out the same year." As Doof says this, text appears onscreen that says "I paid an AI site $7 for this bit. Money well spent?"

  • Matt pointing out how racist-sounding the Kotton Kandy Krunch cereal is, then asking why Buster is eating breakfast at the Reads' house on a school day.
  • Matt says that James ripping his pants would be an embarrassing secret if he wasn't the third character on the show to do it, showing clips of Arthur and Binky doing it in "Arthur's Underwear" for good measure.
  • When Jane tells D.W. that she can tell her her secret, Matt coughs "Bullshit" while showing a clip of Mrs. Read's head as a giant pair of lips from "Revenge of the Chip".
  • Jane then suggests that D.W. think about Christmas, to which Matt says that D.W. only has happy memories of Christmas before showing D.W.'s tantrum over receiving Quackers the Duck instead of Tina the Talking Tabby in Arthur's Perfect Christmas. He then says that he already made a 15-minute video on that special and thanks the viewers for making it the third most-watched video on his channel.
