Kung Fu Panda: Legends of Awesomeness is apparently airing a preview episode right now. There's uh, a lot of discussion about skulls. "Here's an interesting fact about skulls, you can't drink soup out of them." Monkey said that. "I need some new tchotchkes, his Panda skull will fit perfect right here" the villain clears off space on a shelf full of skulls. She mentions she plans to sever his skull too. It's not really great, but it's not bad.

I'm really not sure I get CN's reasoning behind their Friday evening action block. They show new episodes of everything, except Thundercats which has started over. Also not fun was last week when they gave no notice on a schedule change and flipped Batman and Generator Rex.

Vaerai Archon posted:Lessons in recognizing OCD psychotic breakdowns. That was the entire idea behind the episode. I like the fact that directly under this post is an ad saying all ponies will be IP banned. On an unrelated note I'm home sick today and decided to plow through my five recording of Sidekick and I can't decide if I like or not. I enjoy the characters and voice acting but, I don't get "it". I'm not sure where the jokes are or what the show is about.

As for the rest of you, the goon refuge we built after ponies got kicked out is still around, and if you want to check out the show and the good stuff its spawned but be spared the horrors, we'd be happy to have you. (We hate the terrible BRONIES more than you ever could.)

Why are we talking about fan communities? I'd prefer if this sticked to the shows. I was recently watching some superhero sitcoms (Freakazoid, Justice Friends, The Tick) and I was wondering if anybody knew any other good ones?

Even then, there's the ones where you see the person put effort into it, and then there's the ones that are so horrible or perverted that are best left to the "gently caress yeah terrible art" sites. We can agree on that, right? Still going through first season. I agree, the "give her time" joke is a really good one. Also, really? They referenced "have gun, will travel" and "blazing saddles" in the same episode? Truly "just for kids", huh.

Tartarus Sauce posted:Elmo tends to rub me the wrong way, but this looks awesome. I love Jim Henson's Creature Shop. Similar thoughts here. I never really watched Digimon as a kid but over the last...I guess two years now, me and a couple online friends have been watching the various seasons on our little anime nights. I can say that the first season of Digimon is fun enough, I like anything with a sentient cactus after all and aside from some of the characters grating on my nerves it was a fun little ride. On the other hand, season 2 had me groaning each week and I think my pals put it on our watch list just to torture me. It had some cool ideas, mostly the Lovecraft based episode but the new leads were worse than the characters I didn't like in season 1. Seriously, I think that Miyako/Yolei was some manner of special needs girl because I don't know why you would wear that outfit and those colors. I liked Caterpiemon though! We're on season 3 now and it's definitely a lot...I guess darker is the term I wanna use. Considering a big doofy digimon pulled a gatling gun on one of the tamers and all...It seems a lot better written and less episodic than the first two seasons. We are skipping episodes at random: mostly those dealing with the two hanger on friends which I am not entirely against. Don't know if we'll continue onto the 4th season once we get through 3, I think it still gives one of my pals nightmares

Yeah, That's about right. And, honestly, just stop after Tamers, you'll thank yourself for not putting yourself though much else of Digimon.

ConanThe3rd posted:Yeah, That's about right. Xros Wars is worth a go. The first 29 episodes are an incredibly entertaining kind of bad but after that I think they swaped directors or something because the show's writing inexplicably becomes decent and the action pretty drat good. The animation is also probably the best the series has seen yet even if they are blatantly ripping off Gurren Laggan. Edit: Oh, and I peeked ahead to the first couple episodes of Xross Wars 2. It feels a lot like Tamers. A VERY good thing. Edit 2: Tamers has what is to this day one of my favorite villain concepts. The D-Reaper kicks so much rear end. readingatwork fucked around with this message at 20:20 on Oct 16, 2011 |

I may give Xross wars another go after it finishes, but I got bored with it after like 10 episodes. Chiaki J. Konaka actually has a ton of backstory and making of stuff for Tamers on his website that's been translated. http://www.konaka.com/alice6/tamers/index.html

I never really watched it, but I was a big fan of Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide, which had the same creator and, from what I've heard, had the same sort of "live-action cartoon" humor style that Big Time Rush had. Also, though Sesame Street is in no danger of being cancelled, it is apparently now where porn lives.

So, I guess I'm pretty much alone in not getting Gumball. Maybe it'sbecause I'm watching it translated? But something just doesn't click with me about it. Also gently caress Johnny Test so hard, although, I remember liking the first season, it wasn't so fast paced, and it had classic animation.

Gumball is OK, but it's definitely not on the level of Chowder or Flapjack. It's a charming show, but there's not much substance beyond that.

It looks good, has personality, and can be drat funny sometimes. What more do you really need? Also, I don't really know if it's fair to compare it to Flapjack or Chowder. It's not really trying to replicate their formulas and it's not like FJ and C were dropped just because this show came on the channel's radar. Also, jumping on the Johnny Test hate wagon because gently caress that show.

I know CN doesn't usually let shows go more than 3 seasons anyway, so it's not like I blame Gumball for Flapjack and Chowder ending, but even so it's hard not to make the comparison. But I think we can all agree that Johnny Test is utter poo poo.

I like Gumball precisely because it isn't being subversive, gross, or ironic like Flapjack or Adventure Time. It's a cute show with a charming animation gimmic and a few sly references, it's a nice palette-cleanser between Adventure Time's D&D tropes and Flapjack's incontinent manbabies.

I really enjoy Gumball, because it is quirky, earnest, and witty, and it has some fabulous one-liners. Johnny Test is a contemptible, hideous, noisy fuckbucket excuse for a show, meanwhile.

Canadian mandated domestically produced content + cheap as gently caress to license, is my understanding for why it continues to exist. Some people will say similar things about Total Drama *.*, but I find those to be at least entertaining, as a follower of Survivor/TAR. And that seems to have gone away lately anyway.

Just caught some of the kung Fu Panda cartoon. It was actually pretty alright, though as with most CGI tv cartoons, the animation is really spotty. Even during the kung fu parts, it's like they suddenly dropped to 15 frames per second. Everything happens way too fast. Speaking of old CGI cartoons, does anyone else remember Get Ed? That was one of the few shows that seemed to have pretty decent animation. Edit-- Well I just saw Real Steel, and was instantly reminded of Cubix. I'm on a nostalgia trip man, this is weird.

The 90's Are All That gets in the Halloween spirit this weekend, with episodes of Are You Afraid of the Dark? and other spooky-themed '90s Nick shows, culminating in a showing on Halloween night of the now-legendary Cry Baby Lane, which hasn't been officially shown since its first airing in 2001. As their official Tumblr put it: "It may not be specifically a ’90s movie, but it definitely has cult status."
