    • He theorizes that the soundtrack of Club Drive was made with armpit farts. He demonstrates that by showing a clip of Johnny Bravo doing armpit farts. note 
    • During Daikatana, he's completely dumbfounded when the weird creature on-screen is supposed to represent a human.
    • He ends the video by thanking everyone who watched it. Then he awkwardly says "Hi, Mom..."
  • His review of Steven Universe is made from sincere praise for the show, but it does have one funny line: "Focusing on... the good in humanity?! What a unique concept!"
  • In "Top 10 Worst Nickelodeon Shows":
    • When discussing how the teenagers in Talia in the Kitchen act, he questions if the writers have never been teenagers before.
    • He also complains about how "agonizingly happy" it is, saying that his teenage self would rather watch the world burn.
    • Strider suggests that Dan Schneider was replaced by "Malaysian orangutans" when producing Henry Danger.
    • He misspells Pig Goat Banana Cricket as "Pig Boat Banana Cricket". He also mishears "Blargh" when Banana's name is said, stating that it summarizes his opinion on the show.
    • When discussing Awesomeness TV, he notices a very bad cut from Lauren trying to say something before being cut to "You're watching Awesomeness TV". Strider thinks she was trying to say that "My career is going down the toilet!"
    • Further he's annoyed at how the show portrays teenage girls arguing about whose boyfriend is the best, he states that maybe a "buck-toothed lady living in a trailer down the road named Bertha" would talk like that.
    • Lauren spilling some chocolate on her face. To Strider's bewilderment, the sound team decided to play 5 laugh tracks. Strider parodies that by showing himself spilling some water and the Laugh Track utterly losing it.
    • He then begins to make fun of how over the top the audience’s cheers are in between each skit, saying that it sounds like the audience is being lit on fire.
    • In "Nick Studio 10", Strider informs Jeanette McCurdy that the "stuff on the amusement park on the floor" is called vomit. He also salutes her for delivering the best line in the show.
  • In "Worst Disney Channel Shows":
    • A scene from So Random! shows a teacher with a weird accent saying "forty" as "farty", and the students laughing at him. The teacher then says "farty" multiple times, Strider responds with a Head Desk each time. He then gives the teacher a Rapid-Fire "Shut Up!".
    • When he gets to Fish Hooks, he shows the similarly titled black-and-white film "Fish Hooky" instead. He shows a clip of one kid doing a dopey laugh and decides to imitate it. Another kid doing a creepy laugh has him jumping back in fear.
    • He thinks that the Jessie theme song is catchy. Cue him dancing until noticing that the camera is still on, he simply waves at it sheepishly.
    • Another thing he praises is that everything looks gorgeous. "Even the lizard looks like he's ready for a spot on Oprah!"
    • One thing that annoys him about Austin & Ally is Austin's haircut. He lists that one twice.
    • Another thing that annoys him is how unrealistic it is that Trish is getting a new job every episode. He sketches a more realistic approach: "Guess who's unemployed! Guess who sold everything on eBay! Guess who got kicked out of the YMCA!"
    • He's utterly horrified with A.N.T. Farm portraying an older woman in sexy clothing and a young actor pretending to be a teenage girl. Her voice makes even Roger Rabbit cringe.

    • The entire rant against Hannah Montana.
  • "Worst Disney Movies":
  • His "Worst Animated Movies" list has Strider wondering if the creator's of Ratatoing didn't know how to pronounce "Ratatouille", so they simply gave up and added a fart noise at the end.
  • His "Worst Cartoon Remakes" list has Strider describing the Duck triples from Quack Pack as playing a game of "Who's got the ugliest haircut?"
  • His complaint that Garfield never shuts up in The Garfield Show. He shows footage of Garfield talking non-stop, until a giant foot squashes him, Monty Python-style.

  • In his "Worst Animated Rip-Offs" video, he describes the background music of The Little Panda Fighter as "someone smashing a piano with a sledgehammer".
    • The shot of him impatiently waiting for What's Up? to go on.
    • He lists two voice actors from What's Up, one lady, who had two entries on IMDB, one of them being "What's Up", the movie we're currently watching. He also thought he heard 4Kids Eggman in there, thinking that he just did permanent damage to his career just for mentioning that. note 
    • Kiara the Brave has some gems:
      • Him pointing out that the people in Kiara's kingdom are all modernly clothed.
      • "And the Wizard has a laptop, because... don't all wizards have laptops?"
      • Him saying that the movie ripping off Jesus may allow them more "brand recognition".
    • He describes "Leo Lion: King of the Jungle" as the creators doing something resembling a cartoon and calling it a day.
    • He is terrified of Mowgli from Jetlag's Jungle Book, saying that he looks possessed by some kind of alien parasite. He also compliments the name "Jetlag", saying that it reminds him of the thought of flying away from movies like this.

    • For Little Princess School, he lets the movie have it when, during a Christmas singalong, the lyrics "O'er the fields we go" are shown onscreen as "Ore the fields we go". He also calls the movie out for its sexism.
    • He says that his favorite thing about these movies is the bizarre names of the studios producing them.
    • An Ant's Life has him reacting shocked at a Gross-Up Close-Up of Josephine the ant.
    • The Honorable Mentions give us: "Braver, they took Brave and they added an 'R'! Brilliant! Give that man a million dollars!" and him getting to Frozen Land and immediately saying that they couldn't get away with that... until saying that they didn't get away with that, as he shows an article about Disney suing the company who made the film.
  • In "Worst Animated Sequels", there is him imitating the narrator of The Land Before Time 13: The Wisdom of Friends, regretting ever taking the job since the kids watching the movie are more likely to fiddle with their iPads instead of paying attention.
    • There is also the complaint that Littlefoot sounds nothing like his original actor, thinking that the new voice actor is just "some 10 year-old kid they paid with bubble gum".
    • Shrek 4-D has this: "And Donkey never shuts up!" It's the delivery of the line that really sells it.
      • The Swan Princess Christmas has him calling out Rothbart for deciding to use his magic to make the "Christmas Spirit" disappear, instead of doing something legitimately threatening.
    • Then there is also him calling out that Derek is brought back to life by Odette's singing: "F-- Movie! See me after class!"
    • Happily N'ever After 2, literally everything he says about the Queen note .

      • Him comparing the Queen's waving to a mutated tentacle.
      • When one of the servants describes the Queen as "big-time beautiful", he stops the movie, saying she is not beautiful. "I've seen more attractive things in the contents of my handkerchief!" He also briefly wonders what "big-time beautiful" means, asking if he's out of touch with "the youths" again.
  • "Top 10 Worst Sitcoms":
    • His reaction to the plot of Whoops. Even better is his reaction to the out of place music.
    • Him just stunned as to how a teacher saying Henry Danger's name warrants a laugh track.
    • The entry of the The Brady Bunch. All of it. From Strider's clear hatred of how happy everyone is to how everyone is also somehow so passive-aggressive when preforming to how the family fights and then makes up.
    • His reaction to seeing Fred The Show return again.
  • Most of the transitions in "Top 10 Darkest Youtube/Web Cartoons" as Boo and Strider have to deal with working at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza.
  • In his ''Top 10 Most Dangerous Theme Park Rides" on #2 in his transition while he's knocking over milk bottles with Boo watching he smacks someone accidentally offscreen, causing an Offscreen Crash, the #1 transition shows him and Boo getting kicked out of the park, apologizing because he had no clue the park owner's t-shirt had a bullseye on it.
  • "The 10 Worst Junk Food / Soda Failures":
    • In the opening, Strider describes the failed junk foods as having bombed. In the background, an explosion occurs, and Boo is sent flying with a little "oh no!".
    • For #11, Watermelon Oreos, Strider is more impressed with the treat's box than the actual cookie.
    • For #9, Blak Coke, Strider is not subtle about his dislike for Coca-Cola, saying its colour reminds him of fecal matter and it tastes like battery acid.
  • "The 10 Shut down / Controversial Restaurants":
    • For #10, the Australian/UK-based novelty diner "Karen's Diner", Strider ends the segment with an interview with Karen herself, represented by an Animal Crossing: New Horizons avatar. Karen is very excited to talk to Strider, since he's technically the manager.
    • For #8, Hooters, Strider discusses how his family stumbled into a Hooters when he was a kid, and he wasn't a fan...because the place smelled like fish. He notes that he was a pretty clueless kid.
  • In "Modern Kids Cartoons' Worst Episodes", Strider reviews an episode of Fireman Sam. He mentions that he used to watch the 1987 version with his mother as a child, and asked her what she thought of the 2008 All-CGI Cartoon version. Her only comment was that Sam looks like he has an undiagnosed thyroid problem, due to his CGI model having a larger chin and upper neck compared to the 1987 model.
