History

Content note: dark comedy and references to fictional violence. Know Your Meme credits Jason Steele of FilmCow and dates the first episode to February 19, 2009. The selected year marks the original episode, not the later 2014 continuation or 2015 compilation. This is a retrospective community-researched chronology, not independently authenticated original-upload evidence. The contrast between Paul’s objections and Carl’s casual responses makes the exchange recognizable even as a short quotation. The representative preview shows a hanging llama-face mask with a flowered hat, not the two-character debut scene. It is not playable preservation of the voices or series, nor an authenticated debut-frame capture. Character and image rights remain uncleared for public reuse; private research preview only.
