Curious what you guys think, if you can find a better version, if I should keep working on this, etc.

Definitely looks upscaled, but looks damn good nonetheless! Thanks for this. Hands down, one of the best shows to have ever existed. Now I want to find my DVDs from way back when.

Awesome! I'd watch the whole show for sure. What program did you use?

output frames in Shotcut, Real-ESRGAN 4x using realesr-animevideov3-x4 then "mogrifried" using image magick and put them back in using Shotcut, takes about 2-3 days, could definitely be optimized a bit though

Sick. Yeah I've done a similar project before. I upscaled the videos, then fine-tuned them in shotcut (I layered the upscaled and original video to preserve more details, adjusted the colors and so on) and then doubled the framerate with flowframes. You can check out an episode of Filmore in German here 😄 It took a long time for me too btw. And I think I fried my GPU a little.

I think this looks great. I have not been able to find a decent-looking version. What techniques and tools are you using?

It continues to blow my mind that this was considered a “kid’s show”, and had daytime airing slots (along with courage the cowardly dog).

Jhoen Vasquez definitely pushed the boundaries which resulted in his firing (Bloody Gir secretly being put in the episode intro of Menos De Soul Stealer)

Why was Nick surprised when Vazquez's previous work was titles called "Johnny the Homicidal Maniac??"
