Don't over complicate it, Hihohe will be linking the fan art thread and you guys can post that stuff over there. Plus, the thread is currently traumatized by Touhou as is, so I'm sure an influx of more magical women will be the cure.

Perhaps we could make a rule of "if someone posts something you don't like and it doesn't break a forum rule then you shouldn't start a multiple page derail trying to backseat mod a thread"

...because i really hate when people can't shut up about who is and is not a good poster.

after they tried to imitate rebecca sugar's episodes without really understanding what made some people like them

also it kinda has some kind of syndrome shared by tmnt 2012 and gravity falls season 1 where apparently we're supposed to care about teenage boys first girl obsession and watch them whine and mope about it and be dicks to people they see as rivals.

I'd just skip ahead and watch stakes
if you like it you'll want to watch up to it, if you don't you can stop there knowing you have seen the best the show has to offer.

Yeah that'd be about the right spot. Look up whenever she debuts.

There's plenty of good episodes after then, though. Dozens, probably.

Yeah RS never really hit any weird speedbumps and went to poo poo/took itself way too seriously. There are times when it has drama episodes but it's still focused mainly on comedy.

Honestly if you never made it past season 1, you might be like me and just plain not like season 1. I thought you might be one of the many who were burned out on the show at a point and wanted things to be like season 1.

You'll retrace my steps if you watch "No One Can Hear You" and then start from the finale of season 1 and just watch from there skipping episodes that seem boring. Or something... the show has been on a long rear end time by now.

Nah it wasn't because I didn't like it, I just lost interest like a lot of things. I have a lot of time on my hands now & I'm very sad so dumb cartoons are Good as long as they aren't boring or stupid.

"sucking" is relative but I got really soured on it when it stopped being about weird adventures and crawled up its own rear end with backstory that nobody should rightly give a poo poo about and makes no sense juxtaposed with the "present-day" world. Also when they started doing a bunch of lovely plots centered around Finn being angsty, which mostly involve either girlfriend issues or daddy issues.

Lady Naga posted:

As long as you avoid any episodes centered around Margaret and Mordecai like the plague.

Regular Show is weird that way in that they clearly can do character relationships well, because they did it with Mordecai / CJ and still do with Rigby / Eileen, but they keep brushing it to the side to keep dredging up awful, awful, poo poo plots with Mordecai and Margaret.

There was also that one where Finn found little doll versions of himself and his friends and went all Homestuck Poopsocker on 'em.


That was... disturbing.

Adventure Time has always been good; it's just that the tone and writing style gets super variable on an episode-to-episode basis and this pisses off a lot of people who want the show to be Gravity Falls or Steven Universe or whatever. The fact that AT is a random grab bag of whatever a random writer wants it to be is an active selling point of the show to me; it never settles down on any one thing for too long and that makes it exciting to watch for me.

Regular Show is the exact opposite: the show has remained so consistent tonally for so long, that I always know what to expect out of it and I gradually lost interest in it.

That one gets a pass because it's more of a condemnation of fan fiction than anything.
On the other hand, I loving hate the Fionna and Cake episodes beyond the first couple because they started out as mockeries of lazy gender-swapping fan fiction, but then somewhere along the way they decided they should legitimize it.

weren't there only two after the first

one where marceline is just rewriting ice king's fanfiction to try to get through to him, and one which is also a lumpy space princess episode so you should've known what you were getting into there

I thought there were at least four but I guess I could be mistaken. The other one I liked that I'm probably thinking of wasn't actually an F&C episode, the one where Ice King was merely trying to get his fanfiction magically brought to life but it wound up just turning into a retarded farting abomination.

Those two you mentioned are definitely among the ones I hated though.

I used to condemn UG as stupid bullshit but now I can safely say that it's just all over the place as gently caress. There are some episodes that are actually humorous and some that are truly dire.
