________________________________________________Soooooo, when I started watching BLOSC Buzz Lightyear content(the movie and the TV series), I often talked about it with my friends. One of them said, "If you're into old cartoons from the 2000s, check out Osmosis Jones." Allright, bet.
And now I'm here. I've watched the movie twice, and I'm currently watching the TV series, and I feel a bit disappointed. It's a shame that there isn't much content specifically related to the Ozzy and Drix series. And I know that the fandom is small, so I can't ask for much...
BUT SO MUCH POTENTIAL IS MISSING?!
Like, in what sense is Osmosis able to save Frank's body, his home, and the place where he was born and raised, and it seems like this idiot Frank, who has *somehow* magically survived to his age, has stopped polluting his body with all sorts of crap, and everything is finally improving, and then you suddenly end up in a different body because of a damn mosquito? HOW HAS OZZIE NOT HAD NERVOUS CRASH YET?
My bro didn't want to lose his home, which he managed to help, and *finally* wasn't judged for it, and he didn't want to lose his girlfriend and his friends, with whom he had been friends for half of his life. What kind of sedatives is he taking fr?
Not only has he lost his home, but he's also a stranger in a new body, and he's sure to be rejected all the time.
Yes, I know that most of the relationships between the characters are 2000s media clichés, but even from a logical/biological perspective, Ozzy is rejected not only because of his arrogant personality and his tendency to cause chaos, but also because he is an *outsider*(For example we can remember s2ep1-2, where Hecror's mayor(this bro's name is difficult...)didn't want to help save Jones).
And it's usually Ozzy who gets the most attention. Drix is often at odds with Ozzy because he helps him in his antics. Drix himself is not touched (to be fair, he screws up less than Ozzy). Drix is a pill, he can be everywhere and no one really cares.
Also potential angst, because my wild cherry-smelling bro doesn't have a home, just traveling through other people's homes. He's pretty lonely, so it's no surprise that Drix loves Dandel so much (I still confuse this dog's name because I'm watching the show in english without subtitles, and I'm not a native speaker, amd uuugh...).
Also, I didn't think that the s1ep10 would be... like this. Bro, all I saw on TikTok was everyone crackling about Ozzy being "pregnant." ...
BRO, THIS EPISODE WAS A FULLBLOWN BODY-HORROR FOR ME!! WHY THE HELL IS EVERYONE IGNORING THE FACT THAT OZZY HAD A PARASIT THAT DRAGGED HIM AROUND LIKE A CHEMICAL SUIT AND CONTROLLED HIS BODY?! THAT THING FIRED A CANNON THROUGH HIS MOUTH, INFECTING THE INHABITANTS OF HECTOR WITH THE SAME PARASITES!! IT WAS SO SCARY AND ABSURD THAT I STARTED TO THINK THAT THIS WAS SOME KIND OF SICK MOVIE THAT OZZY AND DRIX TRIED TO GO TO AT THE BEGINNING OF THE EPISODE!!!
BUT NOOO, let's have some fun and only focus on the "male pregnancy" in this episode... It's like Ozzy's trauma was only addressed in one fanfiction on Ao3... Bro... 💔
What I'm trying to say is that despite the many clichés typical of the media at the time, there's a lot hidden in the show if you think about it/imagine it.
I really cherish this show because it's funny and full of interesting episodes based on the human body and other aspects. The dynamics between Ozzie and Drix and the other characters are also good. This show really deserves more love 💖
So I need more food for my brain and that's why I started posting
