I would like to take a moment to discuss a cartoon with a rather bleak and troubling backstory. The actual work does not delve too deeply into this, but it is there. I am talking, of course, about TOTS, or Tiny Ones Transport Service. If you are unaware of what this is, it is a cartoon on Disney Junior about a penguin and flamingo who join the all-stork TOTS, who deliver babies all over the world from their floating island. The service is lead by a Captain, with dozens of workers. Baby animals of all kinds come to TOTS to be delivered out to their "moms and pops", wherein they are taken care of by a kindly koala, and then sent on a mechanized conveyor belt in order to be processed, diapered, given a pacifier, and finally set into a crate, to be delivered by the aforementioned storks. Or, in the show's case, the flamingo and penguin. The penguin can't fly, but has a good sense of direction, and the flamingo can't navigate worth anything, but he does have wings. The two of them are probably paid as much as one stork is, but the Captain felt like taking a chance on them. Paid? Oh, yeah. There's money in this. This is all for-profit! There is an episode where a peacock inventor comes to their island with a robot stork. He says he wants to show off his invention to the captain because he hopes she'll fire the storks and buy his robots. That has to mean money is changing hands at some point in this baby delivery service, right?? I mean, why would you buy these robot storks unless you're paying the flesh and blood ones! Presumably babies are purchased before the delivery, because the show never shows money changing hands (or paws, or flippers or whatever). There has to be other baby delivery companies too, because in one day, they're delivering their first baby blue whale, and the next, they're about to celebrate their millionth delivery. Well either that's the first blue whale baby ever, or someone else is covering those deliveries. Which is probably a good idea, because the storks needed to all team up to deliver this whale, and there can't be much profit if you have six deliverers on one assignment. Why yes, I am cooped up in a house with a 16-month old, why do you ask

I will say that terrifying implications aside, it's kind of a cute show, and they stealth had a baby delivered to a lesbian couple, so that's nice. They got more screentime then the cyclops lady from Onward or whatever. AMA about my opinions on Disney Junior shows Digamma-F-Wau posted:I don't know much about TOTS but I do know it's made by Titmouse of all studios It has a lot in common with The Venture Bros. Okay, maybe not really, but the presentation of the show shows that they actually care about how it looks and is animated, unlike those slapdash Puppy Dog Pals. drat you, Bingo and Rolly.

Captain Invictus posted:The tv series Hercules was a lot better than it should've been iirc. Or I might just be mixing it up quality wise with Aladdin's cartoon which was a blast. The Aladdin cartoon was a lot of fun and it’s a shame it isn’t up on Disney+. As a D&D nerd from a very young age, the series was like Al-Qadim come to life (that was their Vaguely Arabia Sword and Sandals campaign setting).

I’ll never watch Spies in Disguise but I’ve seen enough commercials to know that there is some sort of tearful hug between Will Smith bird and Peter Parker and some other pigeons and then Will Smith bird lays an egg so I have to ask is this addressed at any point why he’s laying an egg Or was it a poop joke

The Aladdin tv series inspired a lot of stuff for my dungeons and dragons campaign. The show was basically Al-Qadim: the Series, but better because it also had insect-themed steam robots and Vikings.

Finally got around to seeing The Good Dinosaur, thanks to my son being home sick. It, uh, wasn’t very good. It had some good parts (the reverse shark fin thing with the pterodactyls was very cool) but otherwise I can see why it didn’t do too well in theaters. Also I hate how Arlo and his family look. It should have just been about the ranching tyrannosaurus.

Watching Cars with my son for the fifth time. It’s grotesque that these cars have tongues. I forgot about the tongues from when I saw it in the theater until now. If you had asked me if they had tongues I would have said of course not, but McQueen is flopping that loving thing around. Absolutely grotesque.

ThermoPhysical posted:I think my favorite kid's show is Bluey. It's super easy to tell when the parents are very much done with their kids' poo poo but won't just snap at them (but they have actually) and while the kids may not pick up on it, anyone older than the target demographic is gonna notice they're done playing games but just wanna make the kids happy. I’ve seen more than a few shows on Disney Jr thanks to having a two and a half year old. Most are grating, but Bluey is legitimately good and I’m surprised it is allowed to deal with the stuff it does. You can watch Mickey and friends try and figure out shapes and then when Bluey comes on, she finds a hurt bird and takes it to the vet with her dad but then it dies (and they use the word “died”!) and “it’s out of our hands” is the advice from her dad. Wowsa. Bluey good is what I’m saying. Also they had an episode that was almost on completely silent in a solar system dream sequence with the background music pulled from Holst’s planet suite.

BonoMan posted:Counterpoint -..... wait no counterpoint, it's def not very good. I missed all the Raya posts because it took me forever to watch it but I imagine everyone was mostly negative about it. What a bunch of wasted potential. Five countries to visit means we barely spend time in any of them, the message about trust was poorly done (Naamari’s finger was tightening on the trigger, it’s bullshit that she tries to say “Raya it’s just as much your fault”), I did not like the magical karate baby, and Sisu’s design sucked. Also the script. And lots of little things. Why did no one in the crowd in Talon react to the fact that the “most feared chief” appeared among them and “saved” the woman they were all threatening? Why are the monkeys the only animals seemingly affected by the Druun? Why did I like the Druun better when they were called the Sha and pandas were fighting them? Luca however was very good, very pretty, and I loved the music.
