The last episode was really sweet It shows the even if your friend gets friends other than you that doesn't mean they left you, you are still their "friend".

Jeff's character developement went from COMPLETELY germaphobe to sitting on a filthy couch found outside with NO problem and I love that. Haha.

The thing i mostly remember from the show is that sometimes sumo turns into a sketch at random, accompanied with a screachy noise. It always makes me laught.

This was my favorite childhood show because it presented a reality where the “weird” kid wasn’t a social outcast. Like Clarence, I was also a “weird” kid. In the real world, most of the time, the “weird” kid is at the bottom of the ranks; which is what happened to me. I knew people, but no one ever hung out with me because of my “weird” kid status.

I love Sumo's dad. He's like a chilled down version of Trevor

Can we talk about how good of a father figure his Mom’s Boyfriend was? He played with him, taught him lessons, and went through a massive storm just to find him. Man is a homie.

Clarence definitely portrayed certain aspects of childhood that I related to deeply. And I do admire how it doesn’t shy away from the gross aspects as well. It wasn’t too stylized and polished - and I love it for how grounded it was in reality.

I am 41 and I absolutely adored Clarence. Such a sweet and hilarious cartoon. Reminds me of my first school I ever attended. Everyone was friends. I had a sleepover in the 4th grade with 17 girls! When I changed schools I barely had any friends. It was nice to watch Clarence and reminisce.💚💚💚

It is insane how I never noticed that Clarence had a stepdad and Jeff had two mothers because of how well they were portrayed... You know, as normal folk. That's something a lot of media, not even cartoons specifically, can learn from

I love how this show doesn’t portray kids in gigantic houses and everything, like lots of shows do. It’s just ordinary kids, having fun. Plus, this show is literally so funny 😭

Sumo's dad is severely underrated, he deserves the appreciation for handling a whole family

man this show got overshadowed by others that were dominating at the time but i loved it. As someone that grew up poor with a single mother and a small amount of friends this show hit unnecessarily hard sometimes

Sumo just casually bolting into a party uninvited and having unspoken rizz is the most classic Sumo moment ever

Clarence is a raw interpretation of what it's like to be a kid. It's random, it's silly, it's imaginative.

can we give this man props, he watched and examined every episode of this show and made a 40 minute video out of it

6:18 I’m so glad you guys added that bit, that’s my favorite part all time in that Show😭

they literally filled every pothole that they introduced and kept a running story with multiple storylines. This show was amazing.

The episode when Clarence went Rebellious was one of the best.

For such a charming show, Clarence had a very dark overarching subplot that I don’t see many people taking about. The subplot in question is one involving Josh (the curly-haired, hook-armed, bad-tempered teen boy). After he loses his job in “Lost in the Supermarket” all thanks to Sumo and Clarence, the next time we see him, he has a new job as a park ranger in “Nature Clarence”, then next time he has a new job somewhere else and so on. Each time Sumo and Clarence encounter Josh, he loses a body part after a series of antics (losing a chunk of his hair, his ear getting chewed off by a goat, losing his right eye) and each time we see him, he has gained weight. He gains so much weight and grows his hair out, even getting a mustache, that he becomes completely unrecognizable when compared to the first time we ever saw him back in season 1. My theory here is that Josh is slowly losing a battle with depression, and no one realises it. In that one episode about that dog Chimney, I seem to recall him being high off shrooms or something, and I think that was his way of fighting that depression, idk. This is where it gets weird: There’s another episode where Clarence and the gang wind up at a teen house party, and at some point during this episode, I remember them running through the woods or something like that. In the background, we can see Josh and a group of other unidentified young people in a circle, sporting these long robes/cloaks. They seemed to be in the middle of performing some sort of occult ritual or something. My theory is that Josh got so depressed that a cult preyed on his vulnerability and indoctrinated him into their fold. Either that or HE started that cult, relying on supernatural means to deliver him from his aguish. Or maybe he grew resentful towards the world because it was never kind to him, and this cult is a form of retaliation or something, a way to reclaim his power. The scene is so fast, barely a frame, that if you blink you’ll miss it, but I think the stark juxtaposition of the popular kids at the house party and the ‘loser’ weirdos in a cult in the woods at night was the writers’ way of solidifying Josh’s downfall for us. Or maybe, because this is a slice of life show and everyone constantly has their own thing going on, that’s just what Josh has going on in his life. He started a cult and there’s no further explanation needed lol. I’ve looked high and low and even combed through the wiki but I can’t find any references by anyone to that half-scene or this entire subplot. Which has led me to believe that maybe I’m reading too much into it haha. My memory is a bit iffy so i may have gotten a few things wrong here, but if ANYONE knows what I’m talking about, please reveal yourself to me because this has been driving me crazy for the past six years now. I need someone, anyone, to scratch this itch.

The most realistic part of this show is that the boys only find out each other's full names only 15 episodes later (At least a month in the show's timeline) by complete accident.

Clarence was like one of those shows that had an awkward vibe to it but you still loved it anyways. It was awkward bc it was realistic, as a kid I never really realized that Jeff had two moms or that Chad wasn’t Clarence’s biodad, bc they were portrayed in a realistic way. It portrayed kids just being kids and just going around messing with things and having fun, it was realistic on how kids are, stupid, imaginative, and they know how to have fun, great show really sad it ended

As a kid the episode where Clarence was “rebellious” actually made me emotional. It really resonated with me and felt very real to how I felt at that age.

About 2 years ago, this was my comfort zone show when I was sad, I heard a lot of people didn't like it over the years, but its super charming!

when me and my brother were about 9 or 10 or so, we used to watch this with our dad, who liked it. our dad has recently passed in September. I'm gonna try to warch as much as this show as I can, i feel like that would make him happy

The critic back in the day judged this show pretty harsh. Every opinion on Clarence was that it was a terrible cartoon and too goofy. Everybody that watched it had some social pressure to say that it was a bad show when asked. But in the end, it doesn't even matters...We grew up and realized it was a masterpiece. Rest in piece 2010's Cartoon Network. The piece of art that defined my childhood, and many others.

I always understood Jeff's thing about the fries, even if Clarence had clean hands. You never take another man's food, even as a joke.

Clarence was my child hood. Watching this was a huge nostalgia trip.

The scene where Chad falls through the floor and everyone is screaming, and Sumo's dad is just laughing cemented him as my favorite character. That'd be me haha.

Clarence was part of my childhood that honestly got overshadowed by Regular Show and Adventure Time. Thanks for bringing back some great memories of this show.

that moment when chad shoves jeff away to hug clarence while saying "my boy! you're alive!" while crying is precious. such a great show!!!

Why is nobody talking about how Jeff looks so much like Minecraft Steve?

I rememeber watching the first episode of clarence when I was a junior in high school. I had this strange feeling as though this show accurately mimicked and portrayed my childhood directly on the screen. It's like I was staring into a glorius time portal

Clarence is like that part of the childhood you can't erase, even if you want to.

Honestly I love that sumo is drawn more jagged and rough when he’s upset or being intense

I love Percy's voice actor lmao, it's such a curveball knowing he's one of the biggest voices in gaming

Fun Dungeon Face-Off is one of my favorite and most memorable, childhood show episodes of all time.

I honestly loved Clarence it was just a wholesome funny slice of life show Edit: damn 3k likes thanks guys

I honestly wish Clarence didn’t get canceled. I loved as a kid and about a year ago I rewatched it and it was so enchanting. I personally think the show was peak 2010 Cartoon Network

I related a lot to this show in many ways growing up. I grew up with a stepdad and my mom, I was always weird and a bit dumb lol but it never bothered me or my friends. Also it was one of the only kid showed my mom actually really liked. She loved how the parents and the kids relationships were portrayed and she thought it was actually funny.

Nah bro, Jeff is built like minecraft Steve 💀

Man, Clarence is such a good show. It reflects childhood friendships, playfulness and innocence so well. All the characters are extremely relatable in different ways. Growing up I could relate to Jeff because I have pretty bad OCD, Clarence because I was hyperactive, and Sumo because I also had a big family and didn’t feel very seen by my parents. It was important to see that other kids struggled too, but learn that I can still have childish fun despite things being hard.

I genuinely think the voice acting is great in this show, especially the kids, I also love all the childrens' designs.

The first time that I saw the episode where Clarence played with Amy, I straight up cried when she talked about how she doesn't know which parent she's going to be living with. At the time I was going through a divorce and things were really not good. Clarence should have gotten so much more recognition for the good show that it was

You forgot an episode were Clarence become an bad ass and also an episode of Belson playing video games all day and also in Christmas

Some added lore is that Belson mainly lives with his mother, because his father is a rich business man. Clarence ended up going into Belson's dad's office and is mistaken to be Belson, which shows how detached his father is from his family.

I feel like Clarence was like a modern Ed, Edd n Eddy, and I grew up on the latter as someone born in 2002. My little brother loved this show when he was younger, and I loved watching it with him

16:37 one of the jokes in this episode that bewildered me as a kid was when Clarence said that dillis smelled like “burnt pennies”. like how the heck does Clarence know what burnt pennies smell like? positively humourous

as being born in 2011 clearance has been one of the cartoons that has carried my childhood.

I have no clue how this show is this underrated, I’m glad it’s getting talked about now

I didn't realize just how much I internalized the weird shit in this show. I always thought back to it as one of those one-off shows that I watched to pass time as a kid, but as it turns out, this exposed me to _most_ of the things that I'm interested in now. It was ridiculously nostalgic to hear that intro again. Thanks for the memories :)

He really went from happy to “tonight will be the night that I will fall for youu”

This gave me my childhood back and the nostalgia hit so damn hard

I think Clarence would get along well with Ed, Edd & Eddy.

Chad is honestly my favorite character in the show. I grew up without seeing my dad much because my parents got divorced when I was very young, so I have a stepdad. Chad clearly tries his hardest to be a good father figure for Clarence and if you have a stepdad or step parent, that’s really all you could ask for. Just someone who you may not be blood related to you, but still loves you unconditionally and tries to fill a vacancy no matter what situation you’re in.

The Dollar episode made me and my cousin make our own DOLLARS

At first, I wasn't really into Clarence, but now I'm looking at this with complete interest. It's like watching an autobiography come to life in ways I did not expect.

Clarence was a good show at it's time. My grandmother said it had a bad influence, but it still was a good show👍

The reason a lot of people loved Clearance is because they could relate to their socio economic upbringing. A lot of us grew up semi poor or poor asf and can relate to it.

Holy, I've not watched this Cartoon for so long that hearing their voices is weird. It's also weird that I remember everything so vividly. Thanks for giving nostalgia.

I was completely surprised that I remember every episode,i never realised i watched it that much

I love how the show just flowed naturally! Nothing was forced! Clarence doesn't get enough love, it was and will always be my favourite show.

You forgot to mention a very famous theory that is more than likely 100% real. In the star episode, at 5:27 you can clearly see Jeff pushing Gilben to the floor and him landing on a very specific way. Before that episode he behaved normally but after that he barely changed from the position he fell to the floor in, which means that the fall caused by Jeff probably paralyzed Gilben from then on

my cousin told me and my sibling about clarence a long time ago when they were still making episodes. we both instantly fell in love and this is been my favorite show ever! also its super underrated!

“See you guys later thanks for the battle” had me dying

Clarence is a great show. It was from a time where you kinda had to give something for all ages in a show and Clarence does it right. It's a silly relatable show to watch and give ideas on what to do to kids when I was little, and looking back on it now that I'm older, is a treat to nostalgia, helps bring back the child in you, and like lots of cartoons around this golden age, has some really heartfelt and sometimes down right dark and "wow" moments, such as in the erratic rock episode with Amy down right says her family is dealing with a divorce.

This series is amazing, never before saw a series that understands childhood like this.

This is one of those shows you watched growing up and it's still good now that you're older but good in a different way

This whole video is a bucket full of nostalgia

This show feels like a dream: short, remembering bits and pieces and a weird sense of deja vu on occasion.

This show was an absolute gem to me. No matter when I went on Cartoon Network, there would always have been Clarence just right around the corner for me. I loved it, binged watched it, and even planned things to see the new episodes. A shame why it got cancelled and discontinued though, I really liked the series and thought it could go on for at least 2 more seasons. There wasn't a single Clarence episode I hadn't watched. And the moment you showed the clip of an episode, I would remember it.

I like how this touched on some fairly wholesome episodes and then jumped into the wonderfully terrifying story of Papa Mariano

I ABSOLUTELY agree this show is severely underrated!

the reason it's underrated is because it's one of the first shows that transitioned from cartoons being about a show that was enjoyable with a story, to goofy stupidness with no thought put into it. It just wasn't that generations cup of tea, to put it simply

I loved this show, because it really understands how kids think and act, and, while being goofy, it just feels so real for that.

This is the only video I can watch for a full 45 minutes without skipping anything

This is one of the few newer cartoons that was actually good. Reminds me a lot of stuff that I would sit and watch as a kid even if the episode was a rerun! The best part is that it can show kids how to be a generally accepting and loving person to everyone. But at the same it’s funny, and doesn’t feel like they’re trying to push a narrative. 10/10 on this show.

MAD respect for chad to instantly becoming a step dad

The entire show and the children’s behavior in it makes a lot more sense if you view Jeff through the lens of someone with autism, or severe sensory issues, and view Clarence & Sumo as folks with ADHD. My belief goes as follows Jeff has a form of autism, high functioning, of course, but leaves him with severe sensory issues and hyper cleanliness. Clarence has a form of mid functioning autism, along with adhd. This means he is sometimes reckless, does things before thinking, and behaves far differently than other children. He may have sensory needs that may not fit with “other” autistic folks, leading him to not understand why others do not function the same as him. Sumo has ADHD. This is lead by his extreme hyperactivity, lack of attention to school and topics he is not very passionate about, and his overall disregard for consequences and how his actions affect him or others. All of the boys’ behaviors are nearly down to the blueprint “stereotypical” or, for better words, the MOST COMMONLY SHOWN behaviors within each disability. From my experience as someone, who, like I believe Clarence does, has adhd & autism.. I can say that many of my friends share my mental struggles. Children with disabilities will, even unconsciously, seek out others who replicate and soothe them and their needs.

Chad deserved his name, he truely was a chad.

I have to stop part way to watch the show for myself. amaaaaaazing video, I love the cuts and the commentary, I just really gotta watch the show at this point 🤣

being real here, the clarence dollars episode solely taught me what supply and demand are, and whenever i learn somethng new regarding economy i think back to this show. it's amazing how amidst the chaos they could use a subject as "adult" as flooding a market and yet i understood it all as a kid.

Never liked Clarence for the gross stuff, but I need to say that it's story was incredibly good (for a kid cartoon) and it's characters were explored in multiple episodes with multiple points and callbacks.

As an adult with children . This was honestly one of the funniest and most humbling shows that came out of CN around that time frame.

As someone who went to elementary and middle school in Arizona, this is surprisingly relatable.

For some reason, every episode I see in this video it's like a memory just washed over me and I now remember everything. I truly don't remember any of these episodes until they're brought up.

Clarence showed unconventual family types. Something that isn’t shown on tv in possible light. I’m happy they hit almost all the marks with the main threes family. Gay parents, trailer park parents, and non married step dad with mom. I loved it as a kid and I appreciate it now.

Clarence was wild thing watching this, but still was great part of my childhood and I'm glad for it

I remember when this show came out. I loved it as a kid! This brought me back :)

Underrated show , this show was really relatable every time I watched the show as a little kid it felt like I was watching something that would probably happened to me, made it feel like I was in the world. As a adult now the show is still very fun and relatable

My sister unironically loves this show! As a matter of fact, she told me a fun fact that I don’t think many people know about. The fun fact is; Belson is voiced by Rodger Craig Smith, the modern voice of Sonic the Hedgehog.

When you mentioned the Rough Riders Chicken episode, I started to grin because I remembered all the ytps I watched when I was younger that used that specific episode

This is my fav when I watch on a sleepover😂

The first episode was the funniest thing my brother and I ever saw, the beehive and sumo's realization of what it was is perfectly timed

I know this show isn't that old but its been long enough since I watched it that seeing each scene hit me with a huge wave a nostalgia. This might be the only 2010s show I actually watched the entirety of.

Clarence was one of my favorite shows I LOVE IT

This show is such a underrated and relatable show

Clarence always hit different when I watched it forever ago. It felt so real compared to other cartoons. Each kid is the type of kid you knew growing up

I was a Clarence as a kid. Through and through. I got knocked down, I would cry, but then I would get back up with my teeth kicked it a little... I walked in front of the swings a lot as a kid. Though, that also means I went through what Clarence did at the end of the series. Parents divorced at grade 2, I got diagnosed with depression at grade 6, my mom just disappeared for a couple of years after that, and by middle school I was losing my friends because I was, according to my still best friend, becoming less like myself. Growing up is a beeeeeeaytch, especially when you feel cornered and feel like you're supposed to change. Even then, I didn't watch this show all the way through until a year ago, and oh my god, this show hit me like a train.

This is a show for legends 😢

Can we acknowledge how banger the show's intro is?
