Well, Samurai Jack is episodic, but it has a clear end goal (that they're making right now) and probably has better drama and storytelling than most of the shows on your list.
There's a few other examples of shows with strong continuity (A:TLA) but overall it's a relatively new thing in western animation, executives were long hostile to the idea because it means re-runs won't be understood properly by people who haven't watched the show all the way through, but recently they've realized the internet hype that story arcs create improve ratings. So you can expect more such shows in the future.
OTGW is only 2 hours long total btw and if you liked Gravity Falls then you should definitely get on that. WOY's arc doesn't really start until the second half of the show and it has a different style to its humor than most modern cartoons (feels a bit more traditional I guess) but find out for yourself if you like it.

Yeah, I kind of expected this to be the truth with western animation. I just hoped there were some shows I missed since I only recently started browsing /co/.

I forgot to mention Avatar as another show that gave me that feeling. Though I still do have the final season of Korra to watch. Might as well go and re-watch the whole first series again while I'm at it.

I also might re-watch Samurai Jack because of the new show their making.

>recently they've realized the internet hype that story arcs create improve ratings
There's still the problem of wanting to keep a show going and going, but then just cancelling it as soon as some executive decides he doesn't like it anymore.

Good.

You can't make Tom & Jerry, Looney /TUNES/ or Scooby Doo relevant again because you either repeat their respective formula's only without the luxury of full animation or you take it in a new direction which people won't like because it's not what the characters are known for.

Warner Bros as a company, not just the animation dept, has always seemed like an example of too many cooks, or executives, in the kitchen.

Everything's just IPs and reboots and retooling of IPs. The wrong environment for anything creative or new to happen organically.

Tom and Jerry are by MGM, not Warner Bros. Literally the first few seconds of any episode has the roaring lion logo.

too many executives with too many agendas who are all too happy to sabotage each other at the drop of a hat.

On top of that many of them bluntly don't know what they're doing and live in yes men bubbles that not only protect them from the fact that they don't know what they're doing the yes men will bend over backwards to make blue into red if that's what is required.

Go look at the original superman movies. Not exactly high art but they understood that you play superman straight. He's a guy who wants to help people. Look at the '66 batman TV show, pretty fucking goofy. Along comes this guy named Burton and says 'A: batman is the least interesting person in a batman story once you get past his origin. B: lets make things dark. Not too dark, but just add a little edge to get people's attention." His batman did pretty good, but execs were used to adam west so we got Shumacher.

like 20 years later we get Nolan, only they learn the wrong lessons from that debacle and decide that every hero has to be Burton/Nolan's batman now. Unsurprisingly what works for batman does not work for Superman. (Green Arrow was literally a batman ripoff so OF COURSE nolanizing him works)

finally we come down to the studio's obsession with ratings and merch. Both of which are changing/going extinct. I haven't watched broadcast television in ten years. I use netflix but otherwise pirate my shit. The Saturday Morning Cartoon is extinct and when a show does well with a surprising demographic do the execs say "push some t-shirts or something"? no they say "can it, it's a failure."

I miss the old logo.
Even the one that had the CN angled weirdly was better than this shit.

the amount of nudity is incredible.

i went to sleep and the previous thread died:

Why are joris' eyes black in Wakfu instead of blue. Shouldn't they be blue since ogrest has the black dofus at the time?

>>84163846
Good point. Maybe he found a different source of power that darkened his eyes.

To fast track Superman learning that saving someone will never be good enough and will most likely harm someone else. He just had to find someone worth saving.

shut up mom

's alright
the girls are cute

Waaaaay better than the game, also Shadow a cute

Surprisingly funny.

It's a shame the game was so bad because this along with a good game could have revitalized the franchise. I hear the comic isn't so bad either.
