The Most Disastrous Lost Characters: Vol. 7

Fun Fact: Catnip was voice by vetran VA Cree Summer (whose roles included Penny from Inspector Gadget, Yumaza from Emperor's New School, and Cree from KND) while Hello Kitty herself in the same show was voiced by fellow Veteran VA Trara Strong in what happens to have been one of her first and earliest role in voice acting.

The story of Tord is terrible, the man couldn’t be left alone by fans. I also feel bad for Tom, because man is innocent, he makes mistakes but he remains trying to be a good person. Tom thankfully has been able to move on with ASDFmovie and hopefully Tord is out there somewhere, finally alone

The money man from dhmis YouTube series could have been a really interesting character but to be honest I’m kinda happy he didn’t show up in any episodes like Roy is already good

Tord was a popular one behind the other so-called lost characters in which the official team behind Eddsworld refused to let him return.

It’s true that Eddsworld has not “used” tord anymore in any of their episodes, but they HAVE used him for merch, and recently too! Which I think it is a bit messed up since tord (the person) is not receiving any money or even recognition for the character they’re using to sell a product… this is just my opinion though, anyone can think what they want!

eddsworld has a wholeeeee lot of lost media and characters, it’s a huge rabbit hole that’s super fun to explore; though it is a bit disheartening so much of edd gould’s work was archived so poorly. could be a whole video in of itself.

ive been in the eddsworld trenches since 2017 and i just wanna give you massive props for also pointing out how the teams questionable handling of tord as a character played a part in him being so contentious in the fandom. while the fandom was undoubtedly awful towards tord larsson a lot of people forget that the team definitely could have handled it better, and bringing him back at all just caused more issues instead of solving them like they hoped it would btw, when you go to the official websites faq section, "why did tord leave" is a question, and the answer is just "it's been 10 years, get over it". and last october they released a limited edition merch line themed around tord for charity, which only perpetuated the question of if it was okay for them to bring him back at all. terrible job everyone lets go home

It’s a Shame Robin The Frog was just pushed to the side over the year’s because he was truly a sweet character with tons of potential but after Henson’s passing no one gave him a chance

I really miss edd gould. His creations will ways live on no matter what. His world will keep on spinning.

I think it’d be cool if you talked about Dr. Marvin Monroe from The Simpsons in the next episode, he was the Simpsons therapist in season 1 and kinda just disappeared out of nowhere

I remember loving Tord when I was 11 and even then I understood why he didn’t want to be there. It’s awful how he was treated after he left.

I used to watch the hello kitty series on repeat! I’m so glad you brought up Catnip because she is incredibly nostalgic for me! I have to go find and rewatch that series now

Catnip looks like the most American Hello Kitty character you could come up with. No wonder they didn’t last so long.

The voice actor of Tord is alot different to those days. See the original guy I think left the gang way before The End and the TBATF comics were released. They got another Norwegian (or a guy who's good at a Norwegian accent) to do it, and for now, Tord lives on as said, "Red Leader" according to the crappy fanbase

I was so surprised to see Tord, this is amazing

I'm so glad you talked about Catnip because of my comment. The fact she (along with Fangora (her mother), and Grinder) never appeared outside of the show is just shocking to me, since I watched the show on DVDs as an kid (and eventually learned years later that it used to air on TV) and I remember how much I didn't like Catnip as an kid. And I do agree with what you said about Catnip's design not being as marketable as the other characters, I guess the same can be said with both Fangora and Grinder as well. It's such a shame that more could've been done with them if the show itself didn't got cancelled due to low ratings.

I will always miss money man. His sweet soothing voice. He will always be remembered.

The first full episode of Eddsworld I watched was actually after Tord left. So as a kid, I wasn’t too broken up about Tord’s departure. I wouldn’t really blame them for the way they had Tord leave since I doubt they’d get the reaction that they got i.e. the fan theories. Seeing Officer Big Mac reminds me of that “nothing can kill the Grimace” bit from Clerks: Animated which fun fact, they managed to get McDonalds to let them do the joke convincing them it’d work in their favor by giving the idea of Grimace being powerful.

Honestly, i feel that SuperMarioGlitchy4 (aka SMG4) has lots of interesting lost characters like Enzo, Minion, Bot, Dr. Pootis, etc. But I feel that the most interesting of them is Lakitu: A character who used to be one of the main characters but was eventually replaced with other characters like SMG4 himself and forgotten by the fandom.

I clicked on this video just to say that Tord is in no way a lost character, and there’s a bit of misinfo spread in this video. He’s not in the show anymore however his disappearance from the series makes sense. Like I said there is a lot of misinformation about Tord but he left due to wanting to separate from Eddsworld. He wasn’t forced out, he left because he wanted to. The character Tord was brought back for the finale of the second era where he got esploded. Due to the fact that Eddsworld was thought to be ending forever after that, it was one last nod to the fans, by bringing him back. Now that we’re in the 3rd era he’s still not there because in canon he has exploded but he was never a lost character and while he’s occasionally mentioned by the creators of the show he’s loved by fans and is treated like he never left by said fans-most fan works you see will include him! He’s unused, but he isn’t lost.
