Cartoon/Western Animation General

Saturday morning cartoons aren’t needed anymore?

@Background Pony #CB5F  
Not when they can easily air beyond Saturday mornings.  
Locking them into the one time will mean less people will see it and with that they might not last very long.  
With the change in how shows are view that would be a bad move.

@Jarkes  
From what I understand the problems with the show’s prediction and writing is all Saban.  
The whole spit seasons and airing times and promoting is all Nick.
 
Basically if the problem with with the show itself then it’s Saban, if it has to do with anything beyond that it’s Nick.

@Prof.NightJack
 
I think airing one new episode of a cartoon a week is starting to die out. A lot of networks air 5 new episodes a week, with one new episode from Monday to Friday.

@Background Pony #CB5F  
You do know that when people say “Saturday morning cartoons” they mean shows that air predominantly, if not only, on Saturday mornings.  
Even the new shows that air one new episode a week still air it throughout the week regularly.

@Prof.NightJack
 
Oh, OK.

HOLY SHIT, SAMURAI JACK COMPLETE SERIES ON BLU-RAY IN JUST A FEW DAYS?!?!?!?!

“Rick is toxic and a shitlord and only losers like him.”
 
Hey, remember when you could just . . . like a character?
 
Good times.

@Holofan4life  
I keep forgetting that Stitch is technically unkillable.

@thevideonasty  
Rick is part of the fandom that everybody loves to hate right now. You’ll just have to ride it out.

@DaKurgan  
Nah, next best thing.
 
Avoid fandom completely. If they aren’t enjoying the thing they like, I sure as hell ain’t joining them.

@fobone  
Likely has to do with the how the creators other works are.

@Prof.NightJack  
…What’s wrong with Adventure Time?

@fobone  
No, the other things she created, not other things she worked on.

@Prof.NightJack  
What other thing? The only other major project I see she’s worked on is Don Hertzfeldt’s World of Tomorrow, which is a fantastic movie might I add.

@fobone  
Here are her independent shorts.  
Belly and The Event and the main characters of Summer Camp Island first appeared in this as well.

@Prof.NightJack  
Those are her own shorts made for a completely different audience and a splinter of the budget, it wouldn’t be fair to compare her new show with those.
 
John L. Dillworth made Life in Transition and Smart Talk with Raisin, and yet while sharing some of his style were nothing like Courage The Cowardly Dog.

@fobone  
I was just saying it might have somthing to do with it.  
I mean I have seen a number of people come to think all of Regular Show being nothing but one giant drug trip because of “2 in the AM PM”.  
It somehow colored their view of the show to somthing else.
 
Also have you notice some have looked back at Courage The Cowardly Dog with a view of “i can’t believe this was for kids, even people that grew up with it.

@Prof.NightJack  
My love for Courage knows no bounds and it was a major contributor for my love of animation and horror back in the day, that said people tend to exaggerate how “intense” Courage was.
 
It had it’s moments, but for the most part it was your standard cartoon akin to something like Looney Tunes fittingly enough. Same goes for Invader Zim but I digress.

Why the fuck is Big Mouth getting positive reviews?

@Holofan4life  
Reviews? As in, from an audience?

@HJSDGCE
 
Yes. And from critics.
