same thing with reading young adult fiction. it's really easy to connect to and get something out of. big broad themes, simple story structure, lots of uncomplicated emotions right on the surface and it usually delivers a lot of spectacle. think action movies without all the blood, or porn without all the big floppy ding dongs & nagging suspicion that 2/3rds of the cast are there because it was the only direction they could go to head away from the smoldering heap of rubble they called a childhood, or they just need money for powders. plus unlike all those "adult" genres it delivers that sweet, sweet nostalgia along with the easy high.

it's not like I'm condemning anyone either, that's just my interpretation of why childless adults get\stay super into children's media, enough so that it's a defining characteristic of their hobbies.

You can kill a failed tv show before you're out $50,000,000+.

Yup. Since your outlay is so low compared to an animated feature you don't have to appeal to wide demographics & you can take more chances. If you really want to maximize your return you can even start a non union studio and just... just have your way with some passionate young idiots who majored in drawing straight lines and circles.
