Then why did you make a thread about it?

>>83442872
Because of what it represents. I explained that. Besides which, I've already made three dozen threads. I may as well see it through to the end.

Isn't this that shitty fucking app? I mean, the kind of app you'd find if you try searching the Google Play store and didn't take the first page of results, where you find four function calculators with ads and virtual pets with four frames of animation? Why the hell did this horrid shit get a show?

I think I answered that already.

>straight to Youtube
There's been plenty of Youtube-exclusive shows before. What makes this special?

I don't consider Bravest Warriors and things like that to be in the same category. Those tend to be far shorter than a production-length episode, and lack both a consistency of schedule and an adequately sized season. Talking Tom & Friends is 52 eleven minute episodes, with an episode being uploaded every week except during breaks. It is, by any measure, the exact same type of show that they air on television. It could have easily aired on The Hub, back when The Hub was buying every piece of shit show under the sun.

They could have tried to put their show on Netflix, or Amazon, or Hulu. But they put it on YouTube. Perhaps it is not the first of its kind, but it's the first notable one that I've seen. Tom Kenny works on it. Industry professionals. It's not very good, but it's something.

So wait, when this show inevitably gets shat on by critics or fails to retain interest, aren't industry professionals going to jump to the conclusion that it was because the show was put up on Youtube rather than anything to do with the IP itself?
