I remember reading that episodes of Yuri on Ice were still being animated on the day of broadcast, and had frames scanned while the ink was still wet.

Cartoon Network doesnt even have 6PM anymore imao: That's a big jump in viewers for what has been almost exclusively King of the Hill reruns. Not that I'm complaining, I'll tell you what.

New Clone High continues to be pretty good. That they're starting to have all the clones hook up is definitely a good move. I'm also a big fan of the seamen of their educational shanties!

I still don't trust that Zaslav won't axe it before the 29th. (Though I suppose the lack of promotion kind of makes sense, given that the "Did you like The Life and Times of Tim? Have you even HEARD of the Life and Times of Tim?" market is probably very small and hard to reach.)

I'm also a big fan of the seamen of their educational shanties! I am enjoying it too. I remember that people got mad when the unfinished first episode was leaked and people thought they ruined the show. It was okay but the weakest of the new batch. Glad Phil Lord and Chris Miller got their footing back. On the plus side, looks like there's another season for next year! https://twitter.com/DailyCloneHigh/status/1669343437458661379?t=7siDXbyJdJEGO2g7tKde8A&s=19

Its one of the greatest animated comedies ever made. Anyways, gently caress yeah Season 2. Looks like there are some good plot lines from the trailer. Tom Motorboats the Lunch Lady is going to be good.

David Zaslav hates cartoons but since Phil Lord and Chris Miller grew into big boy Hollywood pants the past 20 years it'd be a bad idea to blindly cancel a show and miss chances of them working on something in the new DC Cinematic Universe and whatnot. Chances might be good.

Both of this week's episodes of Clone High were great; the best duo drop since the reboot started. Scudworth and Mr. B's Vegas sojourn highlighted just how much I really love the UPA style of the art in the show when they just lean all the way into it. Plus Genghis remembered how to speak! The cheerleaders were back (in black)! Shell Silverstein!

SlothfulCobra posted:I've pretty much only seen Luthor as a businessman stories, and I don't think any comic supervillain businessmen come close, but I do like that in his original roots as a scientist, the reason why he hated Superman was because he made an experiment go wrong and was the reason why Luthor went bald. I like the what if story where he cures cancer and does all these good deeds just to trick and then lures superman to his space station with a false flag and then murders him with krytonite ray.

Tartakovsky did say at one point it could be an anthology show, so possibly a totally different story. I like Unicorn well enough but this is very very exciting to me. Let’s do thisssss

Waffleopolis posted:David Zaslav hates cartoons There was an interview with Michael Ouweleen when they announced the expansion of Adult Swim's timeslot where he said that the case he's made to Zaslav & Co. post-merger is that there might be a higher up-front cost and leadtime than the unscripted stuff they're familiar with, but that an animated series instantly becomes timeless library content. Animation viewers tend to return to series that they like for years after its initial run, and shows have a tendency to pick up more fans as time goes on and it gets discovered by new generations of viewers - citing how reruns of Aqua Teen Hunger Force, a show with episodes that are now old enough to drink, still accounted for almost 5% of all AS viewership in 2022. Seems like maybe his pitch is working.

I finished season 2 of Human Resources. I know most people are sick of the Big Mouth universe now, which is fair, but I thought this was one of the better seasons to come out of it all. Plus it’s wild that they can get people like Florence Pugh and Miley Cyrus to play regular characters. I love that this spin-off has meant that David Thewlis can have a bigger role as he’s always been my favourite part of either show. Plus there’s less children which helps with how creepy some people find that element of the main show. The main kid in this season was in a storyline about helping a non-verbal autistic child communicate a want, which I thought was legitimately excellent.

Oops.

The first Futurama revival happened because it got such good numbers in reruns on Adult Swim.

It's literally sadly as simple as this. Plus there is no relationship between competence, passion, or knowledge when it comes to being an owner of anything in this country, as capitalism comes down to "whomever has the most money gets to make the rules".

They really needed a stronger central thread. The episode about helping the kid get a Tonka truck was a good standout because it was actually about something. The rest just felt like filler. Not bad but really forgettable. I'm glad that they dialed back on the hormone monsters to make room for the others though, since it added more joke variety to the show.

[AS] has definitely rescued a couple of very good shows out of the jaws of corporate dumbassery. Unfortunately the Time Warner merger and subsequent termination of Adult Swim Streams happened, which was at least somewhat interesting and interactive TV. I still miss watching Picco and Block Or Charge on Thursday nights, and Stupid Morning Bullshit + Fishcenter were great background talk TV to have on while cleaning or working. But, of course, capitalism means we can't ever have anything good or nice because 10,000 people need every spare cent in their dragon hoard.

I never personally watched the streams much, but that one also felt stand-out petty and dumb. I remember some write up when it happened noting that obviously the streams weren't profitable, but they had built up a small, reliable community of fans who were more invested in Adult Swim now and they had a platform for a cost probably in the low million-ish that let them test out and build up new comedy personalities and concepts too. But you can't spend fan loyalty or buzz and comedy talent just springs forth into the world fully formed and has their agent call the office. And they had a poorly performing merger to try and patch up so they could merge again, so time to start cutting.
