Why did /co/ have such a hate boner for this show? Most people

>>93626760
I loved it, top 5 cartoon of the decade so far.

>>93626760
Tell me, should I watch it? What episodes do you reccomend? I've been curious since I saw a clip where the Melvins had a cameo.

>>93626760
It was hit or miss by episode for me. I think my favorite parts were the visual gags.

>>93626760
Season 5? You didnt watch the promo when he killed weird bugs while calling it fishing? It only more random when you put the context

I liked the show btw

>>93626760
>I only saw [lolrandumXD shit] in season 5
Seriously, though. I've been an avid fan since the very beginning, but the show really tanked in the final episodes last month. I recently watched an older episode ("Driver's Test") and found that one way more amusing with both the visual gags and the overall comedic timing. Nick Edwards was a mistake

The only episodes I didn't like last month were the last two. What a shitty finale.

It looked like the crew had fun making it. I think it's kinda cool how they just went crazy and let everyone jump in to add a little something to an episode of loosely connected segments.

But I'll admit that I didn't enjoy it. Throughout the show's run, I kept finding myself asking, "What the hell was the UG Crew thinking when making this episode? What was their reason for executing a gag this way?" instead of just enjoying the cartoon insanity.

What UG lacked in most episodes was comedic timing; it should've taken some notes from WOY and the Mickey Mouse Shorts.

>>93627211
I think they had comedic timing, they just had odd ideas. I only got mad when the characters acted out of character or something in the story seemed rushed. They made lots of odd decisions.

>>93627320
>They made lots of odd decisions
See, that was the issue with most of the episodes. If the writing ends up being more questionable than funny, you're doing slapstick wrong.
>>93627211
I think we can all agree that WOY, Gumball, and the Mickey Mouse Shorts are the best modern examples of slapstick cartoon comedy done consistently well. It wish we could've gotten a board artist from WOY or Mickey Mouse to do a guest episode on the show beyond just David Gemmill.

Because /co/ hates America.

>>93627083
At least we got an ending to the Aunt Grandma storyline. That's all I was worried about.

>>93627430
Wander and Gumball have questionable episodes too. Just not to the extent of UG. I still find UG one of the best cartoon shows of the decade though. Mickey Mouse is just kino though.

I've noticed that there's some Rick and Morty overlap with the staff: Justin Roiland and boarder Myke Chilian go way back, R&M writer Tom Kauffman co-wrote episode outlines with Kelsey Abbott for late season 1 and early season 2, and Wade Randolph (who co-wrote Anatomy Park and Raising Gazorpazorp with Eric Acosta) took his place for the rest of season 2 and all of season 3

I fucking hate it because of "good morning"
that shit annoys the fuck out of me, and thats the fucking point, to annoy the fuck out of people. why? its not funny at all, and yet he constantly is fucking saying it all the god damn mother fucking time.
which sucks, cause i love uncle gus, and pizza steve is cool, but fuck, i cannot stand good morning.

Yeah. That's always been an interesting connection. What was the final ingredient that UG was missing? Roiland's level of insanity or Harmon's nihilism.

>>93627563
You sound like my mother lmao.

>>93627501
Not really, they lingered on that censorship machine on the end like it was important.

One problem I had with the end of the series is that it felt like lore/a story was beginning to be built up. Especially with all the character development and Aunt Grandma becoming more of a threat.

I never found the catchphrase jarring or annoying. You get used to it. And, yeah; Mr. Gus will forever go down as one of the greatest cartoon characters of all time.

>>93627617
There's a possibility that they might've had bigger plans for lore that was just cut short due to the random cancellation, but then again, that was never the show's style. I can still respect that they kept it simple and stuck with episodic ideas.

Reminder that he's the reason this even happened.

>>93627688
Me too, just felt like the show never reached it's proper conclusion.

>Season 5 episodes that have both Casey Alexander and Ryan Kramer as supervising director (and thus presumably come after the eps that only have Casey as director but before the eps that only have Kramer)
Transitional Phase
Anger Management
Pizza Steve's Past
Date with Gus
Uncle Grandpa: The Highschool Years

>Episodes with only Ryan Kramer as director
Odd-ysey
Surprise Party
Late Night Good Morning with Uncle Grandpa
Diggin a Hole
Uncle Greedpa
High Dive
Broken Boogie
Uncle Grandpa's Uncle Grandpa
Tiny Miracle's Tiny Miracle
Exquisite Grandpa

Why do you insist on doing this to yourself? Stop listing these off.

At least Uncle G wasn't as insufferable of a protagonist as Billy Dilley

>>93627043
Thank you. I'll take the time to watch some.

Because the entire show is just pure, concentrated "LOL SO RANDUMB ECKS DEE"

and a lot of us grew out of that kind of thing when we were teenagers.

>>93628771
Having random humor wasn't so much of the problem as was the lack of sharp comedic timing.
>>93627430
>I think we can all agree that WOY, Gumball, and the Mickey Mouse Shorts are the best modern examples of slapstick cartoon comedy done consistently well.
Teen Titans Go! can pull that off pretty well most of the time.

I feel like everyone collectively forgot or didn't notice that show even happened.

Having worked on classic SpongeBob, Samurai Jack, and the modern Mickey Mouse Shorts as well as creating Korgoth, Baloobaloob, and Periwinkle, how the hell did this guy fail so hard?

at least one of that show's better boarders (Charlotte Jackson) is moving onto Star vs

>>93629015
having a lot of people who worked on post-movie spongebob and/or Uncle Grandpa as boarders (or in the case of Derek Iversen, outline writer) probably didn't help

Do we even know if Billy Dilley's still in production? I thought Disney already rushed through the entire series to shove it out of the way. They were clearly embarrassed about it.

>>93626760
Because it's not funny.

>>93626760
I personally didn't care for the pilot they had on YouTube long ago with the zit covered kid. Just seemed like another crap cartoon trying to go vulgar to count as humour.
Once it came out I never gave it a chance.

The best idea the UG Crew had was changing the look of the backgrounds. The bland style of the first ~100 episodes always pissed me off 'cause episodes like "Belly Bros" and "The Great Spaghetti Western" proved that they were definitely capable of making more impressive backgrounds.

Why in "Big Trouble for Tiny Miracle" did they apologize for what they did but later they treated Tiny like shit in season 4-5?
