If you're counting those three shows as one, you have to count the entire DCAU, and it doesn't apply because of The Zeta Project.

starkebn posted:What are people's choices for the longest running show that was great the whole time? I'd argue MST3K has never had a bad "season" and never an outright bad episode. For animation I wanted to say Dexter's Lab, until I remembered about the revival. But the show would've only been 2 seasons without it so that's not long-running either.

starkebn posted:What are people's choices for the longest running show that was great the whole time? if we're just talking animated, Archer's been around a while and has only slightly dipped in quality (and the dips in quality are, in my opinion, made up for by those seasons being fairly experimental and doing rad poo poo with the format). e: also Samurai Jack s5 was good for 3 episodes and then nosedived off a cliff. those 3 episodes are legitimately fantastic, but as soon as the arc with the Daughters of Aku ends, the show just immediately has no idea what the gently caress to do with itself. it was never meant to have a serialized plotline, having one turbofucks what made the show good to begin with, and it wasn't a particularly good serialized plotline, either.

Archer is still good for the characters (90% of that goodness is Pam) but lately I just find it so tiring to watch. The jokes are just endless callbacks to earlier seasons and nothing happens in half the episodes because it's all endless bickering and treading water due to the new serialised format. I miss the old days of killer standalone episodes like the Skytanic.

Did Archer start writing new jokes? I stopped watching in season 6 when Kenny Rogers showed up to play Danger Zone. That show had an ability to drive a joke into the ground.

I've watched three Ralph Bakshi films (American Pop, Heavy Traffic, and Coonskin) in the last two days and they've all been fantastic. I've always liked him, but kinda wrote him off as the guy that drew naked ladies and rotoscoped and assumed his films didn't hold up, but his work is wonderful.

Also Symbiotic Titan but that is only because it lasted for such a short time. Oh and Johnny Bravo.

Korra was absolutely loving atrocious in the second season, to the point I still haven't been assed enough to watch seasons 3 and 4 even though they're apparently pretty good. and Avatar is one of the best animated shows ever made but that is very much in spite of a weak start rather than because of consistent quality

Yeah, I'm not even gonna try to defend S2 of Korra, even if it had the story of Wan and the journey to the Spirit World. That being said, though, S3 managed to make the mother of all saving catches for a show.

True, maybe good from beginning to end isn't exactly an honest way of describing it as Avatar has kind of a weak start but pretty much stays consistently good once it picks up steam. Korra, meanwhile, starts off strong, falls flat on it's face for a bit, but then manages to become decent again towards the last half. Still though, I found both shows fairly entertaining overall (I also only just watched them for the first time fairly recently). They're hardly flawless but if the creators were to bring it back for another go around I'd probably watch it.

I've recently rewatched both Avatar and Korra, and I think Season 3 of Korra may be the strongest season of both series. But whoa boy, that second season or Korra sure is trash.

It's definitely good, but Wizards is like the movie-pitch scene of Heavy Traffic stretched into an entire feature. It's unabashedly a countercultural art film in the same vein as his first three pictures, but because it's calculatedly restrained to be distributed by a major studio and appeal to a limited family demographic, it has the effect of just magnifying all the latent obscenity.

All of Avatar is amazing, even the first season started really drat strong and only got better. There are some one off episodes that don't exactly inspire confidence but they're hardly enough to mare a fantastic series. Korra is trash, even the third season. I kept coming back and it kept letting me down. So much wasted potential. I should probably watch the fourth season just to say I have but I honestly don't know why I'd bother since none of the first three seasons do anything for me.

Ehh, I'd say Avatar started off kinda weak, though the creative team had enough talent to make episodes like 'The Blue Spirit' to convince the execs to give it a chance. And from there, well... We all know the rest.  Kind of a shame that Korra is probably going to be the last part of the franchise ever, but I can't really blame Mike and Bryke for wanting to go for new endeavors, especially after how badly Nickelodeon jerked them around during the final season's production and airing.
