Oh hey, the Phineas and Ferb/Milo Murphy's Law crossover leaked.

Phineas and Ferb apparently have a personal probability-altering effect which is the opposite of Murphy's Law, causing everything to go right in their favour. This explains so much.

I don't know why Cartoon Network is suddenly showing this Wacky Races show, but it needs to go the gently caress back to Boomerang where it belongs.

The conceit is that it takes place at various points in history.

This cowboy episode has a running joke about an oppressive lawyer trying to stop them from being violent.

Cartoon Network needs to stop flirting with the concept (*cough*Boomerang*cough*) and just release a subscription-based version of their app. Drop new seasons of their shows all at once (or half a season at a time, whatever) and have their entire back catalog available as well. I'd gladly pay :tenbux: a month for that. Bonus points if the sub also includes Adult Swim content.

Problem is, Cartoon Network is owned by AT&T, who are very invested in keeping the "cable subscription required" model going.

Second, it's a really strong show with great jokes, surprising heart, and some great animation.

I absolutely agree, Ducktales is a great show.

In fact, Disney is doing a good job in general with their animations right now.
Entangled
Star vs. the forces of evil
Big hero 6
The new Spiderman cartoon

All of these are pretty fun once they get going. I remember a time when gravity falls was the only thing they had to offer. And before that there were years of nothingness.

I’ve watched all the Big Hero 6 episodes on demand, same with DuckTales. They’re definitely airing.

Don Karnage showing up on DuckTales has me rewatching TaleSpin and I am enjoying it too. (Old DK was WAY better than the new one even after the nostalgia goggles wore off.)

Milo Murphy's Law seemed pretty good, but then it went on hiatus in 2017, and apparently is due to return in 2019?

Kinda puts the SU breaks people complain about to shame.

There's already 15 episodes out so far. It's been around a few months now.

SU people aren't complaining about breaks, it's that the network is sitting on completed episodes for months. And if you want to talk about long breaks without episodes, I need only point you towards the Venture Bros.

As an SU fan fed up with Cartoon Network, I'd say the issue is more the completely unpredictable release schedule. If we knew that, say, we'd get weekly episodes followed by a few month hiatus before resuming weekly episodes again I think the community wouldn't be as upset. Instead we get months long delays followed by releasing a handful of episodes either all at once on the app or in just a single week, followed by more unpredictable months of nothing. IMO doing it this way really hurts how the show is perceived as it airs, with people constantly complaining about "townie"-centric episodes (since those just mean they'll have to wait even longer for gem/Homeworld-centric episodes) or, for example, how the excellently-done episode where Lapis finally got a song was completely shafted in terms of community discussion and attention because it was aired back-to-back with the episode where it was finally confirmed that Rose Quartz was Pink Diamond.
