God bless internet meme makers, they've done more to make Spongebob funny and relevant than the people who have worked and written for the actual show over the past 15 years or so.

It's not just Nickelodeon, every Viacom channel has no idea what they're doing. It wasn't long ago that Comedy Central was their sole worthwhile channel, but their new output this year has been pretty bad. The dysfunction goes to the very top with all the boardroom drama.

I stopped watching Nickelodeon in 1997/1998, and I never moved on to another "kids' network" after that. So I missed out on the Cartoon Network stuff of the late '90s. Luckily, I got into it when it was getting big again with Adventure Time and Regular Show. I'm sure those shows will be looked back upon nostalgically by kids today in the same way people my age look at stuff like Ren & Stimpy and Rocko's Modern Life.

raditts posted:Somewhere along the way, the network that started out rerunning 30-year old Hanna-Barbera cartoons decided that they would never reair a show once it's ended or been cancelled. It's startling how quickly the well went dry for Cartoon Network, when it was the place for fresh new faces in animation to get their start with completely new shows not long ago. Adventure Time and Regular Show got the ball rolling, and stuff like Steven Universe, Clarence, Uncle Grandpa, We Bare Bears, and others followed.

My friend showed me a TTG clip that's a good reference to My Cousin Vinnie, that should count for something. It shouldn't count for filling up much of Cartoon Network's programming that isn't dedicated to new episodes.

ConanThe3rd posted:The acting was completely flat on its face in the persuit of the psa aspects though. Do they do "very special episodes" on kids' TV anymore? I haven't heard of any recently, but I've been out of the game for a while.

muscles like this! posted:Anyone else notice on Rocko that they went back to the original name for the chicken restaurant? It was originally Chokey Chicken but someone finally got the joke and they changed it to Chewy Chicken in later episodes. I saw the Rocko special a few days ago and I gotta say, the more I think about it, the more I think it was really phoned in. It leaned way too much on meta humor, there were too many "hey remember this" callbacks with no other jokes or spins added to them, and it was a retelling of the Season 2 two-parter that introduced us to The Fatheads. If this weren't a series with a previous track record of being great, I'd also write off Rachel Bighead as something that's there to give the likes of AV Club and Buzzfeed red meat so that they can crow about its "importance."
