Ho Yay / Johnny Bravo

Go To

  • Johnny landing on The Island of Beautiful Men after getting rejected from an island of angry Amazons.
  • Also much of it from Carl to Johnny. Carl pounces Johnny constantly (as in "Johnny Goes to Camp"), is very clingy despite Johnny shoving him away, all-too into playing Johnny's pretend date ("Charm School Johnny") or wife ("Chain Gang Johnny"), is impervious to the wiles of chicks, often thinking they're evil ("Forest Chump"), and even said he loved Johnny while standing up for him against an angry mob in "Lodge Brother Johnny". Heck, the episode "Carl Be Not Proud" is practically nothing BUT Ho Yay. Great lines like "If I can't make direct eye contact with Johnny, I'll die!" help too.
  • Occasionally Johnny will even do something Ho Yay-ish, like in "El Bravo Magnifico" he disguised himself as a woman and a Mexican man named "Caliente" hit on him, saying, "Surely a girl as pretty as you has kissed a man before..." Johnny's response? To break character completely and shout, "What? I was young! I-It was New Year's Eve, the cherry cola made me giddy!" He also will say things that probably aren't meant to sound weird, but do, like "Well, eatin' Carl did give me a hungry man's appetite." The episode "Endless Bummer" also includes lip contact between him and Carl (though this one was unintentional on Johnny's part). Not to mention the instances concerning background characters; so yeah, surprisingly a lot of Ho Yay for a show about a guy trying to score with women.
  • There's a surprising amount of romantic tension between Johnny and Samurai Jack in this Cartoon Network commercial bumper, which led to many people shipping them together.
