Motorcity doesn't get talked about enough around here. Why is that?
>>
Cause it ended like 3 goddamn years ago.
>>
>>90666708
So is half the stuff this board talks about. What's your point?
>>
It airs reruns randomly at 11:00 along with Tron Uprising.
>>
>>90666414
Great animation and fun characters but the story didn't really go anywhere.

Should've had one more season but that's what happens when you air an action cartoon on the dead channel that is Disney XD.
>>
>>90667133
Do you think it could've lasted if it aired a few years later?
>>
>>90668721
The Netflix of today would have its paws all over Motorcity. Sadly it's now trapped in IP hell for all time.
>>
Did people here even watch this show?
>>
>>90670227
The threads were incredibly hype, and even had Titmouse employees from time to time.
>>
Like nearly every action cartoon in recent years, it wasn't promoted enough and wasn't really given a fair chance by the network.
>>
>>90670720
"/co/" was inserted into the show itself too.
>>
>>90670720
>when you only started watching the show when you saw threads for the upcoming finale
So much regret!
>>
Shows that aired while /co/ existed don't get talked about much after the fact because we already talked about them while they were on.
>>
>>90671492
>gravity falls threads almost daily for a whole entire year
>>
>>90666414
>Why is that?
There's little to complain about and it was cancelled with no hope of return.
>>
>>90670720
>>90671250
And after all that, we can't get a Motorcity thread rolling past 30 posts? What the hell?
>>
>>90668721
On Netflix like >>90668934 suggested, then yes.

But it was Titmouse's mistake for choosing Disney so whatever.
>>
>>90675028
But it was Disney that came to them.
>“I came up with the idea in 1991 and even made a trailer for it,” he recalls. “I showed it to [development exec] Eric Coleman who was at Nickelodeon at the time, and he loved it. When he got his gig at Disney, he asked me whether I still had that show about future cars. It was a long process, but that’s how we eventually got the show made for Disney XD.”

They shouldn't have fallen for the Disney meme.

As soon as it was sent to Disney XD, it was already destined to sleep in its grave.
>>
>>90675625
It would've just collected dust if they hadn't. Where Titmouse is right now as a company, they shouldn't have any regrets.

Hard to believe we'd ever get another reference like that. /co/ hasn't been the same ever since TU, GLTAS, YJ and Motorcity got canceled. Didn't help that Korra as the worst of these shows stuck around for ages. And then Marvel went to hell, the cape movies introduced unending company wars shitposting and /pol/ and tumblr started a turf war here.
The board has suffered much.

Because it's good

This. It was good so we can't complain, it didn't have "2deep4u" lore to circlejerk about, and it ended too long ago to be the shiny new thing.

We can always talk about the smoking hot character designs, tho.
>>
>>90666414
is there a mega?
>>
>>90673649

Because there's nothing left to talk about. We've already discussed plot and characters to death and the only other discussion one could have is "I remember this. Why is this gone? I wish this was back."

People bitch about the "no generals for nonairing shows" rule, but it's true that with a lack of new content to stimulate discussion, even normal threads turn into the same old or quickly become shithouses.

I caught a climpse of this show for like 20 secs , the show felt so captivating. the artstyle kinda looked liked "gorrilaz" band and felt like it had some of that hotwheels CN vibe. and now it also look like a little bit of "redline". thank you /co/ I forgot all about this.

Now have some goddamn episode downloads for any stragglers.

I like that car but the back is overdesigned.
>>
>>90667133
How did Disney completely fail in marketing a show to kids about cool cars that went super fast?
>>
>>90683126
They wanted it to fail, this and Tron Uprising eventually XD stopped advertising new episodes and eventually started putting the shows on at midnight.
>>
>>90681221
Good work.
>>
>>
Just watching the first episode. It's stupidly fast paced.
>>
>>90687569

>>90689018
I mean it though, it's like it's got ADD.
>>
>>90689085
The pacing gets better later on. Regardless, it's a shame the show didn't get another season or two; both Tron and Motorcity deserved it.
>>
>>90668721
Yes.

Disney XD was a mistake. Disney put a load of promising shows onto their new channel then were surprised when they weren't ratings smash hits. Wow, who'd have guessed that shows on a new channel that no-one has access to would have lower ratings. Better cancel them all! 2012 was a rough year.
>>
>>90689676
At least this had a satisfying ending.
>>
One of my favorite OPs.

Right up there with Megas xlr

2011 to 2013 were terrible years; that's when the mass die-off of action cartoons happened. Hasn't quite been the same since. Though with things like the new Voltron and the return of Samurai Jack, we're off to a slow and hopeful rebirth again.

>>90689781
It makes me worried for Duck Tales. Gravity Falls got lucky because it was fairly "normie" as far as cartoon standards go, but Ducktales is more niche with it's anthro animal characters.
