Uncle Grandpa is an animated series created by Peter Browngardt and produced by Cartoon Network Studios. The show follows the adventures of Uncle Grandpa, a magical uncle and grandpa figure who travels around the world in his RV helping people and spreading his positive attitude. In season 1 episode 14, titled "Jorts," Uncle Grandpa helps a man find his true calling.
The episode begins with Uncle Grandpa and his friends, Belly Bag and Pizza Steve, driving in their RV when they spot a man wearing jorts (jean shorts) on the side of the road. Uncle Grandpa decides to stop and help the man, who introduces himself as Dale. Dale is a professional wrestling fan who dreams of becoming a wrestler himself, but he is having trouble finding his own wrestling persona. Uncle Grandpa takes Dale to a wrestling school run by a legendary wrestler named Bigfoot Cheeks, hoping he can help Dale find his calling.
At the wrestling school, Uncle Grandpa and Dale meet Bigfoot Cheeks, who is initially skeptical of Dale's jorts and lack of wrestling experience. However, Uncle Grandpa encourages Dale to show off his signature move, the "Jortsmanship," which impresses Bigfoot Cheeks and earns Dale a spot in the class. Dale is excited to start his training, but he quickly discovers that wrestling is much harder than he anticipated. He struggles to keep up with the other students and is constantly getting injured.
Despite Dale's hardships, Uncle Grandpa remains supportive and encourages him to keep working hard. Uncle Grandpa even enters the wrestling ring himself and demonstrates his own signature move, the "Uncle Grandpa Flip," which inspires Dale to keep trying. Eventually, Dale's hard work pays off and he finally finds his true wrestling persona: "Jortsman," a wrestler who wears jorts and fights with heart. Dale goes on to have his first wrestling match and impresses the crowd with his unique style and determination.
Overall, "Jorts" is a heartwarming episode that teaches viewers the importance of perseverance and finding your true calling. The episode also features a strong message about embracing your own personal style and not being afraid to stand out from the crowd. Uncle Grandpa's positive attitude and unwavering support for Dale are definitely the highlight of the episode, as he encourages Dale to keep going and never give up on his dream. Fans of the show will definitely enjoy this uplifting and funny episode.
