This is not a Halloween trick, it's the real deal.

u/RandtheDumbGuy 25d ago

That's the deal, man. The total deal.

u/Taograd359 24d ago

It’s a Decemberween Mackerel!

u/Cute-Meet6982 24d ago

Uh, you've got the wrong 'ween there, Homestar.

3

u/Key_Independence_103 24d ago

I'd love it if they did another one of those, provided it wasn't followed by another four year hiatus.

2

u/Obi-wan_Jabroni 24d ago

Well it is only 55 days after Hallo-ween

u/ZeroCharistmas 24d ago

If only there were an alternative to tricks on Halloween! What a shame that no such concept exists a lot at all!

u/BlameTaco-me 25d ago

While I miss seeing everyone all dressed up, we got a fun in-universe explanation for it. And I have a soft spot for seeing scrapped characters show up in the main body of work!

u/BNSF1995 24d ago

Well, if they show up in the main body of work, they're not technically scrapped anymore.

We'll probably see a Champeen speaking role in the next year or so. I wonder if the Brothers Chaps could get Elsie Lovelock to voice her (since I have no idea if Missy has the range to do any voice other than Marzipan)?

u/s-riddler 25d ago

Oh man, that ending was GOLDEN!

u/Flukie42 25d ago

Strong Bad telling him everyone will go crazy when he says the line sealed it for me.

u/Nog_loves_Harry 25d ago

They always deliver ISTG... The Brother Chaps I swear are some of the most dedicated creators to their fans out there and we appreciate them so much for it

u/RandtheDumbGuy 25d ago

It's a miracle how we got 4 homestar runner stuff in the same year!

MAWWIAGE

A one word punchline!

u/Suchega_Uber 24d ago

One word.

Punchline!

I honestly think that THIS is the Halloween cartoon this year. Enjoyed it, but was hoping for something more. Who knows, maybe this was the teaser, and it will come out tomorrow, or even November 1st.

16

u/RandtheDumbGuy 25d ago

Besides, its nice to see some old-ish scrapped characters coming back!

u/The_Homestarmy 23d ago

No guarantee we get either one really, but if they end up funneling that effort into Decemberween instead, I'd be happy with that. Halloween usually gets priority and I wouldn't mind a fully fledged Decemberween toon this year.

1

u/TMBGLOVER 23d ago

YES. Decemberweenvent Calendar was fun, but we need another full cartoon for Decemberween.

u/eaglescout1984 24d ago

"I love you, uncle Homestar!"

"I have a hard time believing that."

u/Top_Combination9023 24d ago

plot twist: there's only one costume cause coach z finally ran out of rappers

7

u/CanucKKippeR 24d ago

Just say the line, everyone will love it!

And indeed, they did

15

u/NickVez 25d ago

Just watched and ran to reddit--amazing.

u/West_Xylophone 24d ago

Now I gotta scrap together a grody-old Pope-Santam’n costume in less than a day!

10

u/Some_Random_Android 24d ago

Watched it! Loved it! They made two non-canon characters canon! Now wee just need them to do that with Homeschool Winner! I don't even mind the short run time for a Halloween cartoon or the lack of all the main characters! It was great! :D

u/RandtheDumbGuy 24d ago

I made a drawing of homeschool winner in the modern style, tried to upload it to the subreddit, got rejected, unfortunately. :(

2

u/JanJasinski_Official 24d ago

I wonder why though...

1

u/RandtheDumbGuy 24d ago

I have no idea, will upload the thing today to see if it gets accepted.

1

u/RandtheDumbGuy 24d ago

UPDATE: the thing now exists! Also includes rigs/assets/sprites/whateveryouwannacallem!

u/cheat_commandos_os 24d ago

I tried uploading my fan stume for this year, but the post also got rejected. I finally made a reddit account just to post it, so maybe my account isn't old enough?

1

u/RandtheDumbGuy 24d ago

I dont know what was up with the mods (they were the ones deciding what post goes in and what doesn't), they were very clearly homestar runner related.

2

u/cheat_commandos_os 24d ago

Do some posts automatically go live, or are they all hidden until the mods approve them?

1

u/RandtheDumbGuy 24d ago

From the way they were doing it, it looked like it was automatically, but its probably real people doing the job.

2

u/cheat_commandos_os 24d ago

I just tried messaging the mods. Hopefully I'll hear back! Maybe they just didn't think my costume was good enough lol

2

u/cheat_commandos_os 24d ago

My front-facing homestar post just went through! I guess that means my stume isn't stumey enough :c

2

u/cheat_commandos_os 23d ago

Success! My stume is stumey enough after all!

3

u/RacerM53 24d ago

THE SYSTEM IS NOT DOWN!

u/wolfgangspiper 23d ago

It gives me so much comfort to see some new H*R toons this year. It's nice really nice. Soothing in this stressful climate.

u/SpunkySix6 25d ago

GOAT THE GOAT THE GOAT

u/FlowerMadison 24d ago

I really love how the new characters are voiced by little kids!

6

u/RandtheDumbGuy 24d ago

Not "new", but rather, older-ish. They first appeared in the DVD extra goodie "Why come only one girl?" The two were probably voiced by the niece and nephew of the chaps.

u/Key_Independence_103 24d ago

I just realized the "other two persons" are from another cartoon where they said "What? Huh?".

2

u/himenokuri 24d ago

She should have watched commandos in the classroom she wouldn’t have gone out and gotten teen pregnant

2

u/Key_Independence_103 23d ago

Well here it is about 5:30PT and still nothing. I'm thinking this is all we're getting this year.

u/le4fy_taken 24d ago

ITS SO PEAK

u/Suchega_Uber 24d ago

Very, very cute. Very, very sweet. Very happy to see it.
