'''''The Dependables''''' is the pilot episode of ''[[Spitballs]]''. The episode was released as a storyboard animatic on ''Red Letter Media''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s YouTube channel. Unlike other episodes of ''Spitballs'', this episode contains art from Rich Evans and comic artist Freddy Williams.

== Description ==

<blockquote>Hello friends! This was the original proof of concept thing we made when we were testing out the idea of doing our animated series, Spitballs. As explained in our intro, this is a really old idea Rich Evans and Mike would bounce back and forth going back 20+ years or more. We decided it would make for a good pilot episode. Obviously Mike is fond of the elderly, but what if the fate of the Earth was in the hands of the last dozen or so nonagenarians around. Enjoy this silly, unreleased video with artwork by Freddie Williams and the legend himself, Rich Evans! Mike did the editing and sound effects. Jay did essentially nothing cause he's scum.</blockquote>

== Themes ==

During the introduction, Mike gives multiple [[sarcastic "That's Right"]]s.

The plot largely hinges on [[making fun of the elderly]].

The episode ends with a large amount of [[toilet humor]].

== Remarks ==

This episode has much more plot than most ''Spitballs'' episodes.

Unlike the full series, Los Angeles seems to be in roughly the same state as in real life though still quirky and exaggerated.

== Previously On ==

Jay claims that he enjoyed [[Moonfall]].
