The Last of the Star Makers intro

The saddest scene I ever saw from Courage the Cowardly dog. I do not own this. This was recorded off of netflix.

How to make an audience sad without a single word.

[Anidem]

Re-watching this stuff as an adult, I start to remember how often Courage the Cowardly Dog show actually made me cry as a kid. There are so many heartfelt episodes in the series.

John Dilworth is a fucking genius for making this episode

My favorite episode, what a masterpiece of emotion.

[TayoEXE]

I don't know about you, but it's impressive how this scene manages to engage the viewer on such an emotional level in less than two minutes.

[ayrahn]

It’s scenes like this that reaffirms my belief that Courage is one of the greatest animated series of all time.

[i.p.]

When I was a child I cried every time I saw this episode. They don't make cartoons like this anymore!

[mkccv]

I never realized how the father, who sacrifices himself, has a cross on his forehead… ultimate act of love, to lay your life down for others

[dragonbowser]

Can't believe I cried for a squid, it was so sad :(

Im a 26 year old guy and this segment still makes me cry like a little girl.

This episode taught me an important lesson as a kid. Happiness and the people around us never last. So we should cherish it when we have it.

[Zeldafanify]

This show taught me as a child that even though the world can be cruel and uncaring, you will always find someone who cares about you, someone who will watch out for you like an angel, be it a loved one or a complete stranger. And oftentimes, you may never have to search for that someone. They always come to you

[BlackWingedSeraphX]

I remember seeing this the first time. I thought it was pretty high level and sad for a kid show. Definitely worked on me.

Now there is a real man. He puts the safety of his wife and children above his own. He sacrificed himself so they might live.

Watch this at Age 9: *I cry*
Watch this at Age 22: *I cry*

[shiranui]

When modern movies can't give you any sort of sadness like this single scene can.

[Mandyinyourface]

It's such a cute episode about unconditional love a mom has for her children, so much she will sacrifice herself to them to become "stars" in the sky.

[renegade]

The green star maker is the greatest Husbando/daddy in all of children's cartoon, sacrificing his own life without fear for his mate and children's safety and only let out a tear for them while he faced his death without regrets and planned on taking the whale with him

Turning 25 this year and expecting my first child with my wife at the end of 2022, cant stop crying after watching this sad/beautiful episode. I want to be present in their life and be able to see my baby grow up with my wife by my side. I wanna be amazing and strong for my baby like these squids were for their children. They are literally the greatest examples of being loving parents and willing to do anything for their children
