I have never heard an explanation for EMH's cancellation that a sane person would consider an intelligent business decision, let alone artistic.

Jeph Loeb thought it didn't focus enough on Hulk, Cap, Thor and Iron Man, in his words "The only characters people care about". Thus they reset it for a more MCU streamline show.

What the fuck did you think was exact purpose of Avengers Assemble? Of course it was part of marketing campaign for the Avengers movies.
Besides, this kind of thinking is idiotic, these movies don't require a tie-in cartoon. Marvel could EASILY make more money on a standalone Avengers cartoon that doesn't piggyback off of movies and is actually good.

Beware the Batman. It was getting damn good and it was a refreshing take on Batman until Snyder's anti-action autism killed it.

All the obvious meddling in this show pissed me the fuck off. It was so goddamn pathetic.

When they changed the intro to be Fury just describing all the movie characters it was just embarrassing how transparent an attempt to educate kids in time for the movie it was.

"THOR, PRINCE OF THUNDER!"
"AND CAPTAIN AMERICA, THE FIRST AVENGERâ„¢!"

I'm surprised they managed to keep the show so good for as long as they did while staying true to the comics. Avengers Assemble is so fucking shameless, they might as well just cut the movies into 20 minute segments and air those instead.
>>
>>94791555

>>94790968

Agreed, also you make more money selling a Movie version of toys and then Cartoon version of toys etc
>>
>>94793270
Supposedly they could have hired the full staff over from Sony and continued the show if they wanted to. But the Marvel animation people were too prideful and didn't want to work on a show that wasn't their own, so they just started over and made a show with more synergy. Ironically, synergy with the MCU instead of the Spider-Man films.

That said, I'm not sure I entirely believe that, because the Blu-rays of the series are still distributed by Sony Pictures, so most likely it was done because Marvel/Disney wouldn't be able to make money off of DVD/Bluray releases, reruns or merchandise.
>>
>>94791504
Too soon anon, the wound is still fresh :(
>>
>>94791021
Are you from a parallel universe? That show was awful.

>Characters are likable and fun.
Besides Nightcrawler and Beast? No.

>Good drama
Contrived excuses for everyone to act like estranged cunts? No.

>Interesting, well-made plot with good twists.
I really don't think so. Both the future plot and finding Jean was a meandering mess that hardly went anywhere until the last few episodes. Really, the only surprising twist was Wolverine and Mystique being involved prior to him being captured by Weapon X, and that didn't have shit to do with anything.

>Good music and production values.
Okay, that I won't fight you on.
>>
>>94791108
For real. I was looking forward to see what they were doing with the Outsiders and Two-Face and all that. I think this show and Telltale Batman are only recent Batman media I've been invested in.

>>94793506
It's not so much pride as it is the fact that Sony had the rights to Spectacular and Disney and Marvel, even if they wanted to bring it back, would have to pay extra to do so. Why do that when you can just make a new show in-house?
>>
>>94791108
That show was pre-Snyder. Put away the phone, anon -- You're driving.
>>
>>94794092
What? Snyder was still in charge when it came out. He was ousted a month or two after Beware was rushed off from Toonami.

Archie Sonic. Both pre-reboot and post-reboot. Nothing will ever piss me off as much as the reboot killing the former and the cancellation killing the latter did.

Yes, there's already low faith on it due to bias against action cartoons, but the main thing that killed it was the movie bombing so badly, there was no demand for GL merch, thus nothing to fund more of the show and no reason to renew.

Earth's Mightiest Heroes wasn't that much of a nosedive, it was just kind of hit or miss after Secret Invasion.

Here probably Loeb pushed to make it episodic.

Watch Agents of Shield.

Season 2 is not only a good origin, later seasons will have only more and more characters that use powers and it's not even that rare of a sight, almost every episode.
>>
>>94789595

EMH wasn't a nose dive, it was worse. There is an incredible drop off of story quality right from S2E1.

It gets REALLY jarring, IMO, after they basically kill off Hulk, who never really returned.

Honestly, EMH would have been MUCH better if they never released S2.

They put so much effort into the beautiful unique visuals, and they must've used a lot of money to hire the VAs they got. Why did they waste all that effort by shoving the series into a timeslot where no one will see it? I just don't understand.
Also, I think the show still continues to be region-blocked on iTunes and Amazon, so people from outside the States can't buy/support it.
It just feels like this show was set up to fail.

Moral Orel.

This wasn't just a case of "Darn, too bad it's cancelled, I would have loved to see more." These writers had shit planned. The show was going places, you can see evidence all over the third season. But instead they cancelled it in season 3, despite the fact that it would end naturally in season 5, and the creators had to rush everything.

You can see where the creators were going in the season, and it was a great idea, but Adult Swim's fuckery meant that it starts out slow and gradual then immediately shifts into overdrive. You could tell the writers were racing to close as many plot threads as possible.

The ending was so rushed and Orel deserved a better send off.

>>94804967
No. It's because Mattel was funding a big chunk of the show. Then their Green Lantern movie line shelfwarmed so hard that most major retailers outright refused to stock any more Green Lantern shit. Hence, the toys were canned and Mattel ultimately didn't make a cent off the show. Obviously they weren't going to fund a second season of a show they couldn't make their product for.

>Archie Megaman Comics
Next thing you'll tell me is Penders had a hand in this bullshit, too. Capcom canceled the comic and two years later I still haven't seen shit for that new cartoon they were presumably going to use for a rebrand, which uses the same basic plot of a comic they *already canceled*. Were sales really *that* bad on top of it?

>Thundarr the Barbarian, Pirates of Dark Water
Both of these shows were more or less canceled because the brass figured there were enough episodes in syndication to appease the audiences (despite rumors of the latter being canned because the head writer died.) Thundarr was going to have an actual plot, and Pirates never finished *theirs*.

>Swat Kats
Canceled despite being a hit due to violence. Which... okay, signs of the changing times that CN wasn't ready for stuff like that or whatever, but it's still bullshit since now without CN the show wasn't able to get back on its feet.

>Any Spiderman cartoon
I didn't watch Ultimate, but has *any* Spidey show with a non-episodic plot (so that doesn't count the original or the Amazing Friends stuff) actually ended on its own terms? It feels fucked up that marvel's top tier super hero cannot catch a break.

>Groo the Wanderer
Never actually canceled, per say, but more of a "never got off the damn ground." The comic sporadically pops up now and then, but since the early 2000s Evanier and Aragones have tried to get an animated project going. It never pans out, and now the name Groo/Gru has "Minions" associations so good fucking luck. Aragones' legacy deserves fucking better than this treatment.

>Popeye the Sailor
You seriously made the Emoji movie over this??!? Fucking Sony, I hope you lose Spiderman and all your money and your puppy.

After secret invasion only worthy episodes was the red skull one and the follow up to the kree skrull war with the original Captain Mar-vell. I will hate on anything Galactus related that doesn't have the FF defeating him in his first appearance.

That will include if MCU makes a deal with Fox to get him. I know they have been trying to do that for ages. Fuck the MCU if they have Tony the tiger defeat the devourer.

What really gets me is that the first sign of trouble Disney gets rid of their gaming department.

This is the reason why we are getting spidey in the PS4 or MVC infinite. They are giving it to experienced third party developers.

I mean I'm glad they failed because otherwise we would be stuck with kiddie versions of Marvel games for the next 50 years but still. It says a lot about your shitty company.

Can't get 100% of the profits? Buy it or make your own thing. Fails? Bury it to death pull the plug. The same thing is going with the Netflix incident. I hope they fucking fail that too but it might be impossible. Netflix library isn't as good without the Disney stuff in it.

They always reset things after 3-4 seasons. Spider-Man is resetting again. They want to hook new kids on new stories by starting over. It's harder to get people into a show when it's older.

Another vote for Beware. It actually kinda stings that YJ is using Outsiders as a subtitle, considering Beware was setting that up too.

Ultimate did have story arcs and it did end up getting a proper ending.

I heard it was because he felt the target audience didn't have the attenion span to appreciate serious plots, or the attention span to ever catch a multi-part episode, or the attention span to remember things that happened in previous episodes. Basically he thought it should be gags and action setpieces, and nothing more, because kids would forget anything that took longer than ten seconds.

>>
>>94815979
You really don't know how production schedule works. The show was in the works while the movie was coming out, thinking it would be a success. By the time the movie bombed, the show was too far into production to cancel, so they could do nothing but air the only season they got produced.

The infighting is what got DC shows besides TTGo booted from CN in general. If anything, probably the most direct victims of that conflict were the DC Nation shorts and Beware the Batman.
>>

>Fuck the MCU if they have Tony the tiger defeat the devourer

If an Avengers movie ever does galactus, at this point it would be like, avengers 5 or 6 with Black Panther, Ant-man, Wasp, Captain Marvel and who knows who else. It won't be Thor, Hulk, Cap and IM at that point. Id personally be totally ok with a transitioned team of avengers doing the galactus story.

this show was fucking terrible and i will never understand why /co/ loves it as much as it does. There are hundreds of planets and aliens in cosmic DC and they choose to focus on only four, and two of them are fucking OCs. The fight scenes sucked, the "art direction" consisted of "use the bare minimum in every scene". Even though /co/ chastised YJ for focusing on the teenage drama in early episodes, they fellate this show and it's shitty Razor x Aya romance thread.

The only explanations I can think of as to why anyone liked GL: tAS was because they wanted fuck Aya or they just wanted to be contrarians because YJ was clearly the more popular show

I haven't watched GL:TAS in a long time but all i can say is that I dug how it built its world and how the stakes felt real and how the Guardians were the assholes they were in the comics. I can't defend Razor x Aya though, that really dragged the second half of the show down.
