Cartoons That Remind Me of eRep - Episode 1

Rocky and Bullwinkle


Unity & The eUS


Lofter Raptor, Generic Serb, Agay

It’s been awhile since I watched Rocky and Bullwinkle, and to be honest I skipped out on the movie. But from what I do remember, things about our eRep society make me think of this cartoon.

It feels that in the eUS we have two groups, one with an actual plan and one just meandering along. One fails because of they are led by idiots and even though they have a plan, well it just never seems to work. The other survives/wins (choose your word) by just dumb luck and a little bit of effort (mainly from the squirrel).



Every now and then there is a break from the main show with little clips from the side. We get reminded of history. We get incorrect/half true stories. Every now and then a Dudley Do Right does his best to help save the day.



And none of these things are necessarily wrong. It fact it helps make the show a little better.

We have the AFA making plans to take over the USWP, win CP elections, etc... and fail. Yes, we have ATO efforts, but honestly it feels like a lot of the success is based more on Agay’s failure and less on our collective effort to win. A small group does their best to fly in and rescue the rest of us who have no idea what's going on, just standing around like Bullwinkle.



And these little shows break up the show overall, but not the story. The story follows a constant cycle of Moose and Squirrel* getting into some fix, Natasha and Boris attempting to do some form of harm, Natasha and Boris fail, Moose and Squirrel live for another adventure. And it goes on and on and on and on.

*When you read Moose and Squirrel, you heard it in Boris’s accent in your head, didn’t you

No wonder I stopped watching the show after a while.
