spoilers for the ending of smiling friends
i can't believe it. my boys... the smiling friends is over!!
i liked the last two episodes. i liked the show's satire of ai slop (friend bot) and i liked that the final episode let us have one more allan b-plot (charlie's uncle).
i was holding out hope that the final moments of episode 10 would be mr. boss looking directly at the camera and screaming that he tricked us and that the show is scheduled to return but the closest we got is his reassurance that he'll "never stop being silly". it's something i guess. i'm glad they don't imply the company is over or that these characters stop being together. there's some good full circle moments like a repeat of the "cut our losses" shot from episode 1, or the long anticipated return of a beloved villain, but it still hurts a lot to say goodbye to such a great cartoon that was NOWHERE NEAR OVERSTAYING ITS WELCOME GODDAMMIT. 4 HOURS OF CONTENT IS LESS THAN ONE SIMPSON OF CONTENT.
i hope we see these guys again. if people see this please reblog or comment with a link to a smiling friends fan animation, animatic, or episode to fill the void of me and all the other fans.
oh yeah also trumpet guy showing up was peak, and i'm super happy for @basicallyedd for canonically being allan's muse.
anyways here are some of my own recommendations of smiling friends type stuff
obviously there's a lot of really great stuff on adult swim right now. there's some cool independent stuff i've been seeing on youtube as well:
rats the show had an amazing first episode. it's another occupational comedy but it's extremely realistic and kind of soul crushing. if you like season 1 of home movies u should watch it and tell the creator it was good. if you don't know what home movies is, you should watch home movies. same creator who now does bob's burgers.
dino monkey cloud. they did a video referencing the ending of smiling friends and it blew the hell up. they're really funny and have good chemistry and i want them to get picked up by adult swim so bad.
noah sportsman is another one tangentially related to smiling friends, as they're best known for animating oneyplays moments but i really love their newest work called slug. you should check it out.
you probably know about this but mummy joe is making peak. he made a whole series called kid vampire and i love it.
and if the hole in your heart is smiling friends shaped only,

i just updated my phone and this unremovable liquid glassbullshit is actually going to drive me to suicide. everything is glossy and wiggly and round. you people have been dealing with this for a month??? i already need to kms over this and it's been 10 minutes.
the thing is, (assuming the show ending is even real) the Glep Ep would've been a wonderful finale if they had said so ahead of time, like any other tv show would have done. it shows how Smiling Friends began and how this little background character is the heart of the whole organization. it's one of the best episodes since season 1. and best of all it concludes on an open door where the fans can still imagine what would happen next.
the entire concept of RETROACTIVELY making a season of a tv show "the last one" is such a gut punch to everyone. if they had said this BEFORE it aired we wouldn't feel so betrayed because we'd be able to manage our expectations. but the decision to unceremoniously call off one of the most successful tv shows of the 2020s was made AFTER it aired its third (and i guess last) season.
i know even entertaining the concept makes me sound like i'm coping, just like fans of Sherlock and Stranger Things did before me, but especially given the way Zach Hadel operates, there's still a part of me that thinks this is a Herculad situation.
Points in favor of Smiling Friends being actually over:
Zach and Micheal have stated they want to end the show on a high point and don't wanna drag it out too long.
The announcement vid was clearly very genuine and off the cuff
They straight up said this was not a gag or a joke and that the show is actually ending.
Adult Swim seems very flexible with the two creators, so it's very likely they're chill with them backpedaling on already confirmed seasons so long as nothing has been started on them.
The two bonus episodes of season three were likely made when they decided to cut the show early, as a way to give fans one last thing to look forward to even after the show has ended. As noted, AS seems very flexible with letting these two do what they want here.
Points in favor of this being an insane April Fools joke:
The episodes are dropping officially in April, when they likely could have been dropped sometime in March or even this very week.
Adult Swim is known for insane April Fools jokes, plus Zach and Micheal are accomplished shitposters.
Episode titles and descriptions have straight up lied before.
Each season was made on an 8-episode order (even if the Brazil special is considered S1E9), so it feels odd that season three just so happens to have extra episodes, and two more at that.
Specifically making an announcement video is inherently more suspicious than just posting that it's over.
Seasons four and five were formally announced.
Saying in your video that "This is not a joke" is the quickest way to rope people in on this being a joke.
Again, the Hadel-Cusack event horizon is insane here. There's genuinely enough evidence that this could be an elaborate gag or a genuine cancellation. It's really just a matter of time.
On a serious note though, Smiling friends is probably the biggest special interest Iāve ever had in my life. It lit up my life for so many months and made me the happiest Iāve ever been and even made my depression and anxiety easier to live with, knowing that I could just watch my favorite show to help me feel better and distract me from some of my darkest thoughts and during my darkest times.
Smiling friends was quite literally the 1 thing that got me through 2025 because it was absolutely horrible for me, it was one of the only things that prevented me from just giving up on everything and now the show is disappearing during a time where I personally need it most.
I donāt think there will ever be another piece of media that will ever bring out the life in me like smiling friends did. Even just thinking about it and how much I loved it was enough to get me to wake up in the morning. It helped me see the world through a different lens, and it most certainly helped in stopping me from contemplating the worst of the worst. Knowing I would never know how the show would end if I wasnāt there to see it.
Yeah idk if ima be able to keep going guys
Idk what Iām going to do now honestly

According to a 2021 interview with former Retro Studios developer Bryan Walker, who served as Senior Development Director on Donkey Kong Country Returns, Shigeru Miyamoto spent his initial meeting with Retro Studios to discuss the vision for the game talking in Japanese as usual.
However, at the end, he said one line in English: "Please take care of DK. He is my friend."
