meme: do you know my canon?

I don't wanna today! So let's have a meme we haven't done since November 2017.

Ping in with your canon (as specifically as you'd like for giant insane comic, SW and Power Ranger stuff). Then wait for other people to ping in with their canons! If you're familiar with it, tell them! And then, yay, new people to squee with!

...it...had a very wide swing, I'll put it that way.

And that makes me wonder if what you saw was what wound up being the actual pilot, or if it was more along the lines of Roiland's original animation that inspired what eventually became R&M, in which case...yes, you were very right to slowly back away, because it...is....yeaaaah. I'm still faintly amazed that anyone managed to build a good show out of what started as badly animated gross-out Back to the Future slash fic.

~And that's my canon origins!!~~~

My sweet little terrible baby has grown up so much since then!

It is sometime amazing and brilliant and so clever, and then it turns around and gives you the dumbest, grossest, stupidest shit you've ever seen, and then turns around and punches you straight in the gut, then kicks you when you're down. I love it, I hate it, I MISS IT SO MUCH.

You know, I have no idea which it was? But now that I know those were two completely different things, I might have to hunt the pilot down and give it a peek, too. :O

Because I recall a lot of gross-out.

There's still plenty of gross-out (they...know their main demographic), but at least it's not all gross-out and it gets progressively better. The pilot is absolute crap; I've seen it probably a million times and barely ever remember anything about it, and the quality shoots up about 100% from there.
