Season 1 Episode 41: Ms. Apu’s old friend

Is Sally x Doowee Inevitable?

For whatever reason the fact it’s spelled “Doowee” is making me crack up especially today

Anyways

I was watching that Christmas episode, because @fantastickoalaobservation and I were just randomly talking about how old the characters are (specifically Kevin, who is probably at the end of high school or starting college at the very oldest) and I was like yup, Doowee is an absolute sucker for Sally and he’ll realize it one day 😆

I mean, sure, Sally has her celebrity crushes, but anyone can have that, right? As young as those middle school fanatics who postered the whole school, or as old as Ms. Apu crushing on that one movie star kid, Cosmopolis is quirky like that. Everyone loves celebs.

And sure Doowee can have his type, and I’ve conspired about that myself, I’ll admit— it’s one of my longer older posts. He likes green hair I swear! But anyways…

It’s like a reoccurring theme in that episode, and it’s so funny. Every time Sally even acknowledges Bob’s existence or says “great idea” Doowee is like 😑 😒 and grumbles.

Heck, even Bob picked up on it, mocking Doowee for his jealousy. Bob has no interest in Sally obviously but Doowee can’t stand it.

The way he ended the episode as well…

“So… Bob is nice, okay, but… so am I!”

Yeah, you are, Doowee. Too nice. Grow a spine, boy. 104 episodes and you don’t ask her out in any of them 🥱

Heck, even Lee asks her out. He has guts, putting up balloons for her all over the school. But that’s another episode…

TheOddOne… Out! Peace ✌️

She reminded me of Mana in this episode.

doowee’s urn analysis

Rewatching this episode and realizing the infamous breakup scene took place in front of Francis 😳

Sally seems petty as hell here -- or maybe it’s just that things escalate so quickly. Even though you know they’re gonna get back together, it still hits hard man

And then when everyone on the Archaeological Club turns on Doowee and Francis backs him up, he goes, all dejected, “Thanks Francis, at least you’re a real friend”

Wonder where that’s comin from

And where does Doowee go straight after this?

To Sally’s, where she thinks he’s come to investigate with her again 

And yeah, Sally’s still mad which then we get her being petty as hell before finally taking his case (”I’m so busy cuz I’m the only one solving cases now you see” “Fine i’ll take it but only out of pure professionalism”) Then Doowee kisses her and even though Sally says something like “ewgh” may I remind everyone the ship can be alive in our hearts

Then they’re going over Doowee’s alibi which no one can back up and Sally goes “I’m not accusing you but we at the SBI -- uh I mean I -- cannot exclude any possibility. You know that because you used to be a member of it.” Then she flips her hair and walks off

dang... then we get this scene where they make up (not make out, sorry everyone)

“we were a team and the only way for me to clear my name is if we’re a team again”

“ok... partner”

Look at how fast she take him back, imagine the dating potential (i’m done, really)

The case is solved quickly from there, then the episode ends cuz teamwork

A beautiful episode

“NO!!!! IT CAN’T BE OVER!!!!!” 3.5 million people cry

But alas, it is 😔 I kind of like how the main duo doesn’t have a perfect friendship, like they did something like this in SOS Saris too. They get into little quarrels but they always make up and that’s what matters. 

 Also idk why but I was so surprised this happened in the show at first, like this was some Captain America Civil War stuff right here.  

~the end~

oh no not another dead person

[stella-so-sly93]

Doowee goes for a trip. lol

[sally-bollywood-thought-page]

we have found the evidence! This is a Dravidian language. Tamil, I’m pretty sure, though if someone can correct me (if wrong!) that would be highly appreciated.

We must note that this is a bilingual newspaper though- Hindi or Marathi or Nepali on the right, I can’t read it. I can just read English, Bengali, Odia and Arabic (though I’m bad at it and not close to fluent yet 😢)

Another clue would be that their names are “western”. The only Indians with “English” names that I know are Christians (and then, usually from Tamil Nadu or Kerala), or north easterners. Though clearly they are NOT from the NE region.

Ms. Apu and Sally’s family are Tamil confirmed?!!?? Or maybe she’s a Malayali who knows Tamil? 🤯

How to watch Sally Bollywood in the 2020s?

TL;DR: I wanted to watch an obscure childhood favorite of mine but struggled to find it. Eventually found it right there on YouTube.

RAMBLING INTRO:

During my kid to early teen years, I was obsessed with a show called Sally Bollywood: Super Detectives. I made YTPs, wrote her into a butt ton of fanfiction, and made my PfP on Sonic Amino and Wattpad an image of her. But like most things for some reason I stopped watching it, this has happened a lot with my interests as a child I would make up an excuse like me growing up, worry people would judge me for it, or deem the series as being the devil? (I still don't know how that last one got into my child-brain, it was about Yokai Watch btw). But in the past few years starting from late 2020 onwards, I have started revisiting these things. Some I still have little interest in for actually valid reasons but the important ones have all stuck around. (I.e Yokai Watch, MySims, etc) So my next move is to let Sally back in. But without Quobo the channel it was most known for being on how was I supposed to watch it?

SENSICAL:

Sally Bollywood's first season is streamable in full on what claims to be "the safest free streaming service for kids" Sensical. At first, the layout of this site confused me but once I found the search bar I was good.

This is all well and good but how do I watch season 2? Sensical excludes the second season entirely and Wikipedia has little information on it besides episode names and a few air dates. At first, I thought this meant season 2 was lost media but I have actually seen episode 11 Night At The Museum on YouTube. How did they get the episode?

EDIT: The one I found on YouTube is actually season 1 episode 7 Trouble At the Museum not Night At the Museum. Still, there are season 2 episodes reuploaded onto YouTube so still, how did they get the episode?

PRIME VIDEO:

Likely this is how. In some parts of the world, I'm not sure where the series is available on Prime Video. If you have a VPN and know exactly where it can be found then you can watch it there, I unfortunately cannot. For some reason, they do appear to be missing episode 1 and likely a few others. This will not do.

🏴‍☠️:

The full series is available on a site, just out of order... For the most part, there is very loose continuity so I suppose it doesn't matter which order it is watched but I personally hate this! Everything I watch I strive to watch in chronological order oldest to newest so for me there is no way in hell I'm watching it on this site.

Episode 1 is supposed to be Cockroach Capers.

YOUTUBE:

Finally, after much searching, I found it where I should have gone in the first place, YouTube. The official Sally Bollywood channel has every single episode in both English and French separated in playlists but also combined into hour-long videos and mixed around into compilations. All the Sally you could ever want is right here.

Another thing I found particularly interesting is their affiliation with LoliRock. This is another nostalgic show I have always loved, never in my life would I have imagined Iris, Talia, and Aurianna being friends with Sally and Doowee. The category is translated via Google Translate to: "Other friends for more adventures!". They are also both now connected to Totally Spies which I have not seen but know some people may find that interesting.

IN CONCLUSION:

If you want to watch this obscure children's show after the death of Qubo, here it is! Qubo had a very diverse catalog of shows and when it ended these shows belonged to so many different people who know what happened to them! I hope that all of them at least found a home somewhere whether it's YouTube or a free streaming service. I was so worried this would be partially lost now but glad it is alive. This is off-topic but there are four Sally Flash games I'm not sure of the origins of, I'm not sure how to get them working so that is actually lost media right there.

I do have a plugin that can make some Flash games playable again but it only works for games that have been archived. Anyway, enough rambling I have a show to watch bye!

A random sketch of Doowee McAdam from Sally Bollywood I did in my draft notebook. I sometimes try to draw whenever I'm bored.

[inusima-shikatsu]

Sally Bollywood & Doowee McAdam ! 

[fantastickoalaobservation]

I don’t know why but this scene from “talent will out” is actually kind of heartwarming, like doowee’s been teasing her the whole episode yet sally still looks disappointed at what he might say after watching her TV audition and then he says something nice which is actually unexpected and then her reaction and how she just lights up😢

“Sally that was really -- really --- uh

-- really great!! Wow!!!”

Every time Fluffy Daffy, Louie’s rapper dad, shows up, you always know that part of the “lesson” or “moral of the story” is gonna be something about parenting. In this case it’s usually about paying more attention to your children- actually it may be about that every time this dude shows up.
