Mini-Mizer

Mini-Mizer  was a webshow ran and hosted by  Josh Dezern and

Norm Henson. The first episode entitled "Pilot" was released on YouTube on 6 August 2012 by Dezern. On 24 November 2012, Henson premiered HIS first Mini-Mizer episode with permission from Dezern, and was entitled "I Can Fix It!!" Mini-Mizer has ran for 6 full seasons (not counting Henson's series 1 1/2 and series 2 1/2, the Mini-Mizer: Legacy videos, and Dezern' brief season 7) The final tutorial of the original series aired on 24 December 2013, but one more Mini-Mizer special, "A Mini-Mizer Celebration" released on 31 December 2013 and the other, "Mini-Mizer" was set to release in 2014, but was cancelled. On 22 December 2015, it was announced that most of Henson's Mini-Mizer episodes had been removed from YouTube, which resulted in the final episode of Mini-Mizer being released to YouTube. It was confirmed by Dezern to be the final episode to be released chronologically. 



History

 Mini-Mizer made its premiere on YouTube at 9:38 am on 6 August 2012. The pilot began as Holmesfilm 's f irst video, formerly entitled "How to Make A Lego Wreck-It Ralph on Mini-Mizer!!" It stayed that way until two episodes later after the uploading of "How to Make a Lego Mario on Mini-Mizer!!" Dezern had realized that the three videos that he had uploaded were videos on Mini-Mizer 3.0. That is how the small idea became an official series. Many names were selected including Minifigure Building, Piece to Piece, Mini-Build, Leg godt figures, and Mini-Mizer. In the end, Mini-Mizer became the final cut. The first episode that was sent through post-production was the long-awaited "Bite That Apple" with Young Steve Jobs as the subject. The first episode with a proper theme song was "Avengers Assemble!!!" On 27 December 2012, Dezern announced that the official channel of the Josh Bradley Studios, made by his friend, Josh Bradley, would be abandoned and later in 2013, closed in result of Bradley's sudden retirement. On his B-L-O-G (Best Long Opdates that you can't Google) on his website, he announced that Mini-Mizer: Series 3's figures would be all celebrities. In late November 2012, Dezern announced that Purpleparatroopa would be his partner and later, the Vice President of The Arcade Addict and Co.



Mini-Mizer Suggestions Shortly before the release of his two videos announcing Phyllis Diller's death and an episode of Mini-Mizer, Dezern announced that he    <span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Verdana,sans-serif;color:black;border:1ptnonewindowtext;padding:0in;">would allow suggestions from anyone at all for Mini-Mizer. The first suggestion by a channel named quickstart24 was discovered on another Minifigure suggestion video by a different channel. Quickstart24 suggested Kick Buttowski, which Dezern told him to give him a week and to come to the channel for a surprise. Kick Buttowski (Showtime!) became the pilot of Mini-Mizer suggestions. <span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;">

<h2 class="MsoNormal" style="margin:12pt0in;line-height:15.75pt;"><span style="font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13.5pt;line-height:15.75pt;">Monkee-Mizer <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:4.8pt0in6pt;line-height:15.75pt;"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;">In 2012, Dezern released a Mini-Mizer episode where the subject was Peter Tork, the oldest member of the made-for-TV band, The Monkees. Its name was "Monkee-Mizer." Davy Jones, the youngest and only late member of the band, was also created on a later episode. Dezern claimed that Micky Dolenz and Michael Nesmith, the other two members of the group, were being made for the final series, but they never were.

<h2 class="MsoNormal" style="margin:4.8pt0in6pt;line-height:15.75pt;"><span style="font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:13.5pt;line-height:15.75pt;">Henson's Mini-Mizer <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:4.8pt0in6pt;line-height:15.75pt;"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;">In November 2012, without Dezern's permission, which was not needed, YouTuber Norman A. R. Henson released an episode of Mini-Mizer. Afterwards, he helped co-create the show until its second hiatus in 2014. Eleven months after the hiatus began, Henson removed nearly every episode of Mini-Mizer he had uploaded, as he was beginning his music career. <h2 class="MsoNormal" style="margin:4.8pt0in6pt;line-height:15.75pt;">Cancellation, revival, and finale <span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;">On 7 August, Holmesfilm announced that a Mini-Mizer movie is in production. He planned it to possibly be the end of the show. "As Disney says, all good things must come to an end." Dezern stated. On 8 August 2013, he wrote on his channel, "You know, although I said that Mini-Mizer would be cancelled in 2015, I'm seriously thinking of not cancelling it. When I make my final decision, I'll let you know." On 9 September 2013, it was announced that Mini-Mizer would be renewed for one more season near the end of the year. The final tutorial was planned to air 31 December 2013, however it was moved to Christmas Eve, making Peter Capaldi the final subject of the series. On 6 November 2013, it was announced that an end-of-series special would be released featuring Dezern, Henson, and JoshXD. Originally called "Mini-Mizer: Farewell to a Program," "Mini-Mizer," was planned to be released in fall/winter 2014, however was cancelled due to "a full, winding life." Shortly thereafter, all of the recordings for the film were lost, showing that the film really wouldn't release. In 2014, Dezern announced that Henson had submitted twenty five ideas for another season, which gave Dezern plans to give Mini-Mizer an official revival in August 2014. However, in November of that year, the views of Ringo Starr (which was removed) and Steve Martin, which has four views as of December 2015 were so quiet, Dezern decided to stop working on episodes. However, on 20 December 2014, Dezern released his third Christmas Mini-Mizer special, in which the boy from the 2004 Christmas film, The Polar Express, was made. After the release of that episode, nothing Mini-Mizer whatsoever released, however, was mentioned on various occasions.

<span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;">On 22 December 2015, Dezern made the following announcement:

<span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;">" Yes, this video is the official series finale of the webshow, Mini-Mizer, which ran for six and a half seasons. It spanned from 2012 to late 2013, with a return and revival in mid-2014, with a hiatus after the 2014 Christmas episode, and then this finale, just as a reminder that Mini-Mizer is old, and does not have much time left. This YouTube channel is now used for music, film, and vinyl. Within three weeks, every single Mini-Mizer episode ever made will be removed from this channel, and moved to its own individual channel. Please stick around this channel, as more is to come, except for Mini-Mizer."

Alongside it, the official Mini-Mizer Series Finale was released, and Dezern stated that no new Mini-Mizer episodes would be released. However, on the soon-to-be channel where every episode will be rereleased, Dezern will release the Mini-Mizer: Legacy videos that he neglected to release due to timing. "After Legacy, Mini-Mizer's gonna be history," Dezern stated. As of November of 2016, nothing related to this has happened. However, viewers might see lost and deleted episodes of all six seasons in the upcoming anthology website, Holmesfilm: The Recycle Bin Treasury.

Mini-Mizer: 1.5
In March 2014, Josh Dezern announced that Mini-Mizer would be revived with at least three seasons. In April 2014, the failed idea-raiser from May 2013, Mini-Mizer: Legacy was tried again. Mini-Mizer co-creator Norm Henson submitted 25 Minifigures towards seasons one and two and is to be rewarded with all prizes. Dezern wrote on his Twitter in April that before starting the revival series, he would mainly focus on refurbishing old episodes. "The quality sucks and it's time we do this." On 17 April 2014, it was announced that refurbished episodes of Mini-Mizer would release, like the original show did, on Mondays and Fridays, starting to air on 21 April 2014. In June 2014, it was announced on Holmesfilm's Twitter that Mini-Mizer 1.5 was going to rerelease on 6 July, Josh Dezern' thirteenth birthday. It was later moved to 13 July 2014.
