Mr. Coat and Friends



Mr. Coat and Friends is a video review website founded by Stefan Ellison, aka That Fellow in the Coat. The site hosts his videos, as well as a number of other contributors. In it, he is essentially portraying himself as he is obsessed with nostalgia and holds memories of his youth, growing up in the 1990s. However, he holds immense contempt for the current decade, particularly noting how far animated series have fallen. Although the style is in the form of such sites as That Guy With The Glasses, it largely averts Caustic Critic.

Other contributors include Mike D. Retro, Morgan Leger, Hewy, Jaimetud, Roushutsu, Face Nelson, AniMat, Animated Analysis, Cabelstudios, Radical Reviewer.
