At least credit Mike Stoklasa if you're gonna copy his sentiment.

No idea who that is, but Jim Rome did a rant on Grandpa Joe years ago that his callers would bring up.

This is not the first time I nor many others on this board have called Grandpa Joe one of the great villains in cinematic history.

People have hated Uncle Joe for much longer than RedLetterMedia has been around.

Red Letter Media didn't come up with the anti Grandpa Joe take. That has been around for a long arse time. Here's an anti GJ website started in 2004 https://www.saynotograndpajoe.com/. I seriously doubt it's the first. Hell, I bet you could find movie reviews from when Willy Wonka first came out that note how shite Grandpa Joe is. People forget that the movie got mixed reviews and bombed when it first came out. It only became popular years later after repeated TV showings that happened mainly b/c it's failure made it cheap to license.
