Ah, the first cartoon I EVER watched. Too bad I was TOO young and don't remember much about them, but I do remember absolutely being addicted to the show.

I love the smurfs back when I was kid.

The story's name was later changed to "The Flute with Six Smurfs," because of the Smurfs' popularity (you can see this in modern issue prints of the album). In international markets, it's more aptly called THE SMURFS AND THE MAGIC FLUTE. Belvision made a film adaptation of it in 1976, which I consider to be the best adaptation of the Smurfs ever made! It was brought to the US in 1983, and was a box-office success. Anime voice actor veterans dubbed over the characters in the US version!

Incidentally, Gargamel and his cat Azrael *were* originally characters from the comic. They first appeared in an early comic from 1959, "The Smurfnapper" ("Le Voleur de Schtroumpf"), in which Gargamel wanted to capture Smurfs, as a Smurf was part of an ingredient to create the Philosopher's Stone, which, indeed, he wanted to use to create gold! But, time and again, he fails. :)

I have some smurf comicbooks at my home

What's ironic was that before the change, the Smurfs would turn black and unintelligible once they're sick. After that creators decide to change them to purple when they're sick.

they should've said something about smurfet being made by garggamel

the smurfs are one of my big time child hood treasures

You should've included in your retrospective THE SMURFS AND THE MAGIC FLUTE (Belvision; 1976), the animated film adaptation of "The Flute with Six Holes," which I consider to be the best Smurfs adaptation ever made! Atlantic Pictures brought the film to the US in 1983, and it was a box-office success (the highest for a non-Disney film at the time, before THE CARE BEARS MOVIE in 1985). It was dubbed by voice actors (including Cam Clarke as Peewit) working on US dubs of anime.

I grew up on the smurfs and remember it fondly I’ve always been a fan of them

Watched this expecting more details but it was too short. Should've called it a brief look at the Smurfs.

as a belgian i have to point out that the name schtroumpf came from when Peyo had a lunch with someone from spirrou he had to ask for salt in french but didn't know the word for it and accidentialy called it schtroumpf.

Man I remember watching the smurfs as a kid and now im watching king of the hill. I don't know why but as a kid I had a crush on the girl smurf

Always weirded me out there's only one girl.

I remember watching the show when I was younger, but it wasn't until early May of this year when I rediscovered it

Please, make the origins of Tom&Jerry!

I loved the smurfs when I was a kid. Back then I never really thought about their origin or anything. Now that I'm grown up I now wonder were there other smurfs when Papa was a smurfling? What happened to them after Papa became an adult?

The Smurfs are my favorite childhood TV show 😊😊😊😊😊🍭🍭🍭🍭❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗

I love the Smurfs

Moral, dont let Hollywood do your movies.

there were three girls: smurfette, sassette, and granny smurf from the cartoon

The 1980 series can now be viewed on Netflix. For a while I remember they did re run the show on normal tv on kids channels for a while. I watched them myself when I was younger.

I'd loved this even more if it talked about that *one* PSA...

looking forward to the new live action smurf:) just bough the first one on dvd and looking forward to see it

Homnibus: Nevertheless, there's one thing i could try for you! Send you there by hypno-kinesis! What do you think of that? Peewit: Well... Johan: Er...

'81 - '89...The Smurfs were THE 80's.

Where did you get the 4:3 NTSC episodes with no channel banners? Hope they're shared on internet as well

you forgot that they were first animated in europe BEFORE america did the cartoon series

one thing she forgot to mention that smurfs normallly are only guys but the antagonist Gargamel made the female character as a trap but it failed and she lived with them evere since

Who still loves the Smurfs? I do!

I don’t know if you’ve done this but can you do top 10 smurfs

Everybody likes smurfs tv show

Let's let Hana Barbara get their hands on Sergals. :D I'd love to see how they would tras--preserve these creatures.

do a top 20 Smurfs

You've got to do the origins of the Care Bears!

Watched Smurfs 2, with my boys it was really funny.

This was the Saturday morning show that brought NBC out of the ratings cellar to number one!

Can you do the origins of He-Man and the Masters of the Universe please?

Question: How was this video posted BEFORE the Smurfs movie released in 2011??? They talk about it like past tense!!!!!!!

awesome

In spain and hispanic-american countries are called "Los Pitufos" and smurfette is "pitufina". I like more the comics.

the smurfs are great love them takecare all

Back when kids didn't have the dirty minds they have now..

You're forgetting the animation from the late 1970s with theme tune performed by Father Abraham(Vater Abraham) in 1977.

the magic of time travel

Top 10 smurfs pls

love them smurfs thanks for great video takecare all

damn that gargamel!

Another sequel THE SMURF 2(2013)&animation movie THE SMURF:THE LOST VILLAGE(2017)

I love the smurfs

I love smurfs

"We're an autonomous collective. We take it in turns to act as a sort of Executive Officer for the week. But all the decisions of that Officer have to be ratified at a special biweekly meeting..."

Do History of Speed Racer!!!!!!!!

How did Smurfs procreate before Smurfette came around?

dude, this is cool

Johan & Peewit Don’t Know Gargamel

Now:the smurfs the lost village

That is pretty cool. I'm hoping the CGI remake would be cool, even though I do feel that CGI is very overrated and it needs to go. In fact, it would be cool if it was done through cel-shade/toon shading. -KT

proud to be Belgian Germany may conquered us twice but we conquered the whole world with the smurfs.

Smurfs are my 2nd favourite cartoon (my first are simpsons)

How did they know about the 2011 smurf movie but this video was uploaded in 2010

In French, my first language, they are called Les Schtroumpfs, in Dutch it's De Smurfen. Belgium's three official languages are French, Dutch/Flemish, and German.

Tintin is also from Belgium (my country), just like the Smurf. Both basedon Belgian comics. You can write to Watchmojo to tell them to do the history of Tintin, or maybe I'll ask them for you.

Maybe I can make a comedy reboot of the Smurfs on Adult Swim

Wow, you didn't mention the unicef commercial

Nice

I would Smurf Grumpy with a smurfing pan.

My Childhood

Well not all is lost for The Smurfs they just released two great mini-movies far superior to their big screen counterparts.

its the flute with six smurfs

I’m here because of Kat Williams

lalalalalala sing a little happy song

I found smurfthing very interesting online -- not sure if this relates to the new movie, but it looks hilarious -- THE SMURFY GUIDE TO PROGRESSIVE SMURFTIANITY!

Ok then i am the only one watching this video in 2023 back then when I was kid i used to love Smurfs

What about the shorts and movie in the 1960s?

WAIT. How did this video refer back to a 2011 movie even though it was posted in 2010?!?

@MikePetel man i swear a video on the smurfs endsong said it was that but thanks

That's what I've heard since high school in the mid 90s, but I don't know if it's true.

@ShawnRavenfire yea, Ive been watching boomerang a bit the past few months and smurfs is on most days, it reminded me that Im not really pro-medieval times but I like when they keep a show's settings intact otherwise it generally ends up horrible (ex: the underdog movie that came out I saw the trailer for the smurfs movie months ago and it looks almost as bad but Im still hoping that Im wrong and people have finally learned to adapt a cartoon

@ShawnRavenfire I think they were simply taking this video too literally when it said "transported to"

Do the history of Tintin!

can you do spongebob squarepants

Honestly, I love the Smurfs and their generous humor, but the newer versions of the show and comics made in 2010 and 2012 are not really very well placed. The fact that they are somehow instantly removed from their normal life as a happy, ungrowing community to the enormous New York city doesn't seem very fitting. Plus, the whole concept of love in the movie throughout makes no real sense, since dating and love has never been a main personal goal among the adorable blue creatures. I think the movies were a little displaced, is all I'm saying :|

ive alaways loved the smurfs la la la la la la la la la la la takecare all have a great day evryone

Actually no...Peyo created a Johan et Pirlouit story called La Flûte à Six Trous (The Flute with Six Holes). plus, there were much more then six smurfs...as you can plainly see!

....good question

LALA LALALALAAAA LALALALALAAAA

but why does papa smirf have red hat with red pants/ shoes make no sense O_O is it because hes the leader?

The Smurfs or get a reboot it looks good

I guess the movie was still in production in 2010

Exactly!

the smurfs is super silly,there are movies smurfs the lost village 2017

The Smurfs are from my country Belgium.

I love the game smurf life it's on the App Store

I love the original Smurfs so much, not really the new ones, absolutely HATE what they did to Smurfette, she was originally sweet and innocent and then suddenly they have her kicking butt and everything, since when did that happen?

I am from Belgium, so i speak Smurfs. Some comments say: i like to fly Smurfette or i want Smurfette to lick my house. Jesus, Americans need to learn how to speak Smurfs.

well smurf
