Libluini posted:Wouldn't we have to wait for 20 years to judge this? Remember, some stuff only got popculturally relevant long after it flopped horribly. Also both TMNT and DuckTales came out at a time where it didn't have to compete with way, waaay , waaaaaaay more media accessible to kids. As in, kids had to wait longer for episodes to be made and then broadcasted at x time, possibly also having to either be there to watch or have a VCR to tape the episode while someone else was watching. Modern Ducktales (and modern TMNT) are now available on a medium where I can grab a rectangle outside and watch it... along with every other cartoon that managed to stick itself into youtube and netflix and cable broadcast systems and so on. One of the weirdest ways I've seen of broadcasting cartoons to kids was around the early 2000's, on hospital waiting rooms. Rather than have someone curate for animation that would be understandable if muted and would last for a few minutes rather around an half hour or long, they'd show like, segments of Pokemon and Winx that would show at random, sometimes muted. As if whoever was showing that didn't quite knew how cartoons are experienced. In fact it was an odd period where someone writing about cartoons on a portuguese paper could calmly write on how she didn't understand the purpose of Cyberchase, an educational cartoon about math. I wonder if that may have contributed to those weird bot-automated cartoons on youtube.

The Lorax episode. Namely the sketches with Demo Reel people as soulless corporate black suits. With a spiel that became a gifset on tumblr as being aspirational. A few weeks after the episode where NC returns.
