Eskimo Bob
Categories: Flash cartoons | Canadian web media
Eskimo Bob is a Flash cartoon located at EskimoBob.com. The cartoon is made by brothers Tomas Guinan and Alan Guinan. It features a wide variety of colourful characters including Eskimo Bob as well as his companion Alfonzo. Other characters include the Walrus, Seal, Yeti, Fish in a Spaceship, and Yuck.
The series originally started out with the main characters doing things like finding a stick, eating fish, attempting (in vain) to club a seal, and foiling the Yeti's evil plans. But, as time went on the plots and the animation became more complex as it began to parody well-known cartoons such as the Transformers and Dragon Ball Z.
Though the series is updated less and less frequently, there are occasionally mini-games and similar distractions released. A DVD is currently in the works, but the release schedule unknown. This is rumored to be an update on the old VHS version that featured updated animation and added scenes (which by current standards only has a limited amount of episodes on it). It is rumoured that the long-delayed 31st episode will be exclusive to the DVD, featuring the dramatic death of a main character. It is still quite a cult hit on the internet, especially with those who like Homestar Runner.
