Kick the Can is one of the earliest toons put up on homestarrunner.com. This short cartoon introduces the Old-Timey series of cartoons on the website. This short has fifteen different cartoons in it, each twenty seconds long. Each cartoon in it has The Homestar Runner kicking a soup can along the ground, with bizarre results each time. Each of the different versions of this cartoon has a different ending. The song The Entertainer plays throughout each of the toons (in the DVD version, it is replaced with an edited version of the music heard in Parsnips A-Plenty). According to the DVD Commentary, these toons were created shortly after the website was put up in early 2000. Mike Chapman claimed that a few of the short toons were created approximately a year after an initial ten were created. (more...) watch
