The AotY list is going to be pretty difficult for me this go around. There were so many good shows in Q1, and the year is ending strong despite the summer slump.

It's poo poo and the people who enjoyed it have bad loving taste in media and take any bottom of the barrel garbage as legitimate entertainment when there is better poo poo that even fulfills that role

The casting was fine, but every other part of the show is the drizzling shits made into a live action series funded by some loving moron in an office who is throwing darts at a board trying to find the next thing that will blow up on netflix so they can get some easy attention/money

I do kind of feel bad for the actor they got to play Ed for all of one scene though as that was apparently their first major role.

It's mostly the dub script is better than the sub scripts tend to be, but also Daran Norris is in the dub and I love hearing Timmy's Dad talk about the war on titan as he hallucinates butterflies.

I grew up watching Fairly Odd Parents so it always makes me giggle a bit whenever I hear Daran Norris in anime. He's hilarious as Cowboy Andy.

yeah they're likely going to carry this stigma for a while. again even in their case I really don't feel like it's their fault at all, it's the writers and directors.

Who’s Dream?

Popular minecraft youtuber, won "content creator of the year" at the game awards, which was hilarious, given his main claim to fame this year outside of his circle of underage fans was him cheating to get a minecraft world record, and when caught and called out, instead of admitting it mobilized his fan base to harass people and put out a lovely defense by a hack "mathematician" on probability. Eventually he did give in, with the lame rear end excuse that he "didn't know" he was cheating (because a lot of times they use mods for their challenge vids and such) and of course no acknowledgement of how he treated everyone who held him accountable like dogshit and caused a bunch of harassment for them.

In other words, Dream is a piece of poo poo who takes advantage of gullible people and small children.

If it were just some bebop-inspired space show it would be remembered as this cheap, cheezy, syfy channel level series that somehow got a surprisingly good cast. But instead they tried to remake Bebop and well...

Sounds like a real piece of poo poo but as I was reading this and got to "underage fans" I was expecting something sex predator level horrific and now I'm somehow relieved that the game awards trending gamer is bad but not that bad (so far as we know). It's a really low bar I guess.

You know how people say it's okay for different people to like different things and that's okay and we should all respect it?

This is why that's wrong. This is a time when all of that is wrong. Sometimes it is NOT okay for people to like a thing, and this is one of those.

Nah it's fine if you like live action bebop, even if it means you have poo poo taste. poo poo taste is not a crime.
