The ones on the left were bad so now not enough people care about cartoons to justify the investment.
Steven Universe and its consequences.
I genuinely think it's the lack of interest kids have for cartoons now it's just not economically viable to make them anymore
Netflix
Shut up faggot
Studios experimented for 2 decades to figure out how new animation technology works, trying to find "the best" way, and they didn't realize that being experimental is what made them successful
It’s true, the aging tumblr demo is not enough to carry an industry. The wider nerd base moved on to anime and general audiences went elsewhere.
You are still a faggot
literally all of these are true of both eras. it's just some get one treatment, others get the other. but nobody gets the 6 seasons off the bat. they get one, and they're told MAYBE if it's good, you'll get 2. then maybe 3 and 4 as one package. then we'l see.
jesus that midnight show came out in 2020? I thought it was like 2018 or some shit
Adventure Time seasons were 26 episodes long and they were on season 4 by 2012
Supposed anti-fag defending fucking Adventure Time the show with fags
Lo fucking l
You are the fag
I just checked and I was wrong. They were on season 5 by 2012, 2 years after the show started.
I know Midnight Gospel wasn't like this but this is what went wrong

I wonder why kids ain't like the new shows
I work at a school. Kids still love cartoons, it's just that most of them (both boys and girls) want to see cartoons that feature more adult things or at least feel adult. Regular Show is still crazy popular with the kids, and the boys go nuts for Invincible, Spongebob, and stuff like The Boys. And they watch Family Guy and South Park too.
It goes without saying that anime is popular with most of them. There's even manga in the school library.
The reason why cartoon budgets have been slashed across the board is because
the economy is ass
cartoons aimed at kids are gradually being gutted
phones
streaming
anime
You retard that's because they need his Obnoxygen to not be eaten
also forgetting picrel
They stopped making cartoons for kids and targeted them towards 30 somethings

Inexplicable 500 million dollar budget despite having the animation quality of a Disney knockoff you'd find in a dollar store

psychedelics turn you into a boring person, don't trust Hollywood
bullying was good for Zuko, if his dad didn't sucker punch him with fire he wouldn't have joined that tibetan fella to bash some brains in
man, homeschool bullies are the worst
You are such a pathetic retard
At least Skibidi Toilet is still good.
Was it supposed to go on for more than a season?
Everything wrong with society now is because bullying victims doubled down on their behavior out of spite, because bullying does not "correct" jack shit
Only terminally online chicanos think this.
There were more kids when I saw Terrifier 3 than the Wild Robot.
Kids literally just don't watch cartoons anymore.
That's the thing.
The whole 6-14 demographic that watched cartoons is gone, because babies will watch babyshark doodoododoo spiderman elsa slop from birth to age ~10, from which point on they graduate to the "adult" content of mr beast, andrew tate and streamers.
Corpos tried to plug that demographic hole by appealing desperately to 20something twitterite disney adults who engage in shipping wars at age 28, but forgot that people don't need to actually watch your show to draw porn of it and their whole model collapsed.
Animation is relegated to being a combination of money laundering and a retard playpen for nepo babies who couldn't cut it in hollywood or finance to harmlessly play artist and stay away from too much crack and whores.
Just say that you are an asshole anon
Kids still watch cartoon MOVIES. Who the fuck do you think watches shit like Moana 2? This is like the woke vs anti-woke war. Aladdin made over a billion dollars; the problem isn't brown people, it's betraying people's expectations.
Only brown people hold child abuse as a sacred value. Your grammar is too good for you to be a nigger so I'm going to assume you're a latinx anchor baby.
My bad, i thought yoo meant that bullying is good and besides i'm an europoor
I'd argue movies aren't as harmed by ipad babies as cartoons, cause you have to go out to see a movie.
Cartoons directly compete with skibidi toilet on what should a kid watch while they're at home, while a trip to the cinema is an event. An event parents will organize, in a futile attempt to say 'Well, ar least he's not on the phone this afternoon. We went outside, we did something.' more often than not. Parents that were kids in the 90's. Parents that have brand recognition for Aladdin.
Tapping the sign.
well the three on the left are made for kids. the one on the right was made for a mature audience.
The issue is that adults dont take cartoons seriously enough as both audiences and producers.
Night Gospel sucked fucking balls. Animating a podcast is ultimately not a great idea in the first place but when your host is a dull dweeb and your guests almost as dull fops, it makes for mind numbingly awful content. 90% of the episodes are the guest talking about “mindfulness :D” and Duncan going “dude you are blowing my mind right now WOAH I NEED MORE WEED”
talk shit about the podcast but Duncan is actually really sweet guy.
I don’t find that statement disagreeable but it doesn’t make for a good cartoon listening to a “sweet guy” talk to a Human Resources expert
Why is Snufkin there, he's not from the 2020s
He's from Midnight Gospel
