Is the downfall of CN symbolic of the downfall of culture altogether?

What, you don't like 36 hours of Teen Titans Go ever day?

>>86242318
No I prefer a mix of new comedy cartoons, action cartoons and an overall appreciation for the older generation's cartoons. Why couldn't they just stick with this?

>the downfall of civilization is imminent because my favorite cartoon channel has had shit programming recently

>>86242396
Because people are abandoning cable and they want you to want to use their app, which lets you watch it all, whenever and however you want.

Why would they give you something nice on TV when, if they sour that well, you'll have to move on to sunnier shores? And what color is the grass over there, anyway?

>>86242318
Someone explain to me why Teen Titans Go is played so much? Dont they have better shows to spam? It makes a lot more sense when Nick spams Spongebob, almost everyone likes that show.

>>86242555

Its the best reviewed show so they literally play is 5 days a week

>Is the downfall of CN symbolic of the downfall of culture altogether?

This is some melodrama if I've seen one.

It's too bad because it was making a bit of comeback around in 2011. They had a few good action shows like Thundercats and Young Justice and started airing the old Looney Tunes shorts.

As fucking stupid as that is.

It's a vicious cycle of viewership. TTG got huge ratings, so they showed it more... and more and more and more, and now it's gotten to the point that it's 90% of their programming because nothing else gets nearly as good ratings.

critical reviews != consumer ratings

The latter is based off of eyes on the screen and has nothing to do with the quality of the programming being watched.

TTG! actually has some genuinely funny moments and the people who make it clearly have a love of DC comics. It's not nearly as good as the original Teen Titans or Young Justice though.

>>86245157
This. Also cartoon network had free reign to do whatever they wanted because it was originally a turner network and after AOL/Time Warner bought them out no one was paying attention to them.
The bigger they got the more attention they get from executives. Instead of creative people making risky decisions they get bean counters making "safe" dipshit decisions based on profit margins.

>>86242777
The original teen titans was made in South Korea. They literally didn't credit studio MOI, but it was made there. Teen Titans Go! on the other hand, was an actual american animation. This s why it was so damn shitty. You can literally tell whether it was made in US or Korea based on the quality of the animation alone, that's the sad part, the entertainment companies in US were never capable of making such quality on their own. That's why once the business venture with the korean studio ends, the show dies, and they are not capable of easily rebooting it, the show was never entirely on their hands to begin with.

>Legend of Korra
>Almost all batman shows after TAS
>Almost all spiderman shows
>Teen Titans
>Bondocks
And many more, all made in South Korea. It's a hard redpill to swallow, but there's almost no quality in 2d animation in the entire American continent.

Two words: Christina Miller

She only talks about Adult Swim.
Doesn't give a single shit about CN. I'm sure of it now. And the Teen Titans Go Shit-A-Thon was her favorite CN show since getting into the cartoon business. While CN was having issues since 2009-2010 it was minor compared to the utter shit show she caused when taking over in 2014. RIP Toonami, RIP Quality, and RIP Cartoons.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xc-pElxFEpw

>>86247388
Yep, KND was the last of it's kind. When it ended that's when the downfall relatively began.

>>86242267
The downfall of culture is largely due to the internet. Nothing is unique or special anymore. Everything is blended into one moment where it instantly becomes stale and gets replaced. That's why decades are losing their identity. The internet is the worst thing humanity has created, and it will be our downfall.

>>86247754

Back then they have shows for different kid demographics, a whole lot of variety you can say
now it's just the same quirky humor may may with ugly characters and bare bone animation
at least it's not 15 frames per second like Jap shows

>>86247279
>tfw you remember when it was ziff davis tv
Their coverage of the consumer electronics convention in vegas was my favorite time of year.
I also loved the tiny production cast they had. The screen savers set was just off camera from the call for help set. It was a real small production crew and everyone seemed generally excited to be doing what they were doing.
And short haired bleach-blonde morgan webb was my first waifu.

I've heard it suggested that offshoring the animation to cheaper Asian studios allowed American cartoons to devote more resources to the writing. Which is why there had been a general upswing in quality in the late 80s/early 90s to today.

Nigga, you are fucking retarded.

Saint Nicolas inspiring Santa Claus =/= Saint Nicolas being Santa Claus. Even when including alternative names.
Unless you expect me to believe that a Catholic Saint delivers presents to all the children of the world every night.

>>86251862
I'm sorry. Was your previous post serious? Should I have addressed it in a more serious manner? Were you sincerely suggesting that scouring the entire world to disprove a magical delivery man unreal was at all equivalent to googling the reason for a television show ending?

Yes. That's precisely what I'm suggesting.

In both cases, you're asking me to search for something that doesn't exist.

>I used to watch Ed, Edd, and Eddy before school.
What cartoons will our kids enjoy? Will they all just be reruns, nothing new?

>>86252073
I am confident you could find many compelling articles explaining why Santa does not exist. You are not required to literally and personally check under every stone.

In the same sense, I'm not asking you to time travel and personally bear witness to the decision process that went into ending Flapjack. There is documentation of the reasoning behind that as well.

>>86252318

No there isn't.

>>86252342
Of course, there is. You can't end a show without documentation. Shows don't just begin and end at random. This is trivially true.

>>86252445
Confidentiality is a thing, you know.
Cartoon Network would have no reason to explain their reasons for cancelling Flapjack if they were interested in keeping Orman around.

>>86252506
Why would they be concerned with keeping him around if he was producing a bad show?

>>86252564
Industry experience is valuable regardless of your project's success or failure.

I mean, the fact that they have not let him create any more shows is kinda telling.

>>86242267
Can I get a quick rundown of how it's falling down? I know there's a laughable lack of variety with the shows, Teen Titans Go having most of the airtime, etc. Why has it fallen so far?

>>86252635
I would think Flapjack's ratings and numerous awards would be more telling. But if your position is that he was running a failing show, I suppose I'd have to ask for your sources on that.

why is japan animation so much better than american??

>>86250369
Nah, not even fans of FLCL wanted more of it

Too much childrens content is made by middle aged, normie men who think they know what kids like.

Cartoons were way better when they were made by drug addled, art school graduates

>>86252734
From the very beginning, my question was "What is the difference between reception and preference?"

It's not rhetorical. It's just question if high ratings and viewership are being conflated.

>>86252816
And I said I didn't understand what you meant. You never expanded. Regardless, ratings are explicitly measuring viewers, so I don't really know what you're talking about.

>>86252816
>Regardless, ratings are explicitly measuring viewers
I meant "If high ratings are being conflated with reception".

I accidentally left that part out.

>>86243144
It's probably because they realize deep down that it's bullshit like that which caused the Trump victory. They've spent the last decade or so saying "Fuck white people", growing bolder every year. Voting for Trump was just the moment when white people collectively said "Fuck you too".

>everything that ever happens is somehow related to my infantile identity politics

>>86252912
They aren't being conflated. Flapjack's block was the highest rated primetime block among kids 9 to 14. It's ratings were up in 2009, during it's second season. It won an Emmy in 2009.

Nothing is being conflated. Flapjack was both highly watched and well received critically.

You can choose to believe that it was cancelled because secretly it was actually terrible despite every metric available suggesting otherwise. Or you can accept the far more likely reason which is that the main creative forces behind the show wanted to do other things. Which is Adventure Time and Regular Show were both created and produced by Flapjack alums.

They really need to make an Adult Swim 24 hour premium channel that is basically the equivalent to Boomerang, where they show all their older shows (Sealab, Brak, Squidbillies, Metalocalypse, Space Ghost, 12 oz. Mouse, Perfect Hair Forever, ATHF, etc), complete with the old bumps. Maybe even have an anime block, but licensing would probably make that a bit more difficult. I would have that shit on 24/7.

>>86253614
>le randumb Tim and Eric retard shit
Please explain to me when, and how, Adult Swim got flooded with this shit.

Because it seemed to suddenly go from ATHF, Venture Bros, Brak Show, Boondocks, and Harvey Birdman to random shit like Tim and Eric, that stupid Scrubs parody, and syndicated Family Guy and American Dad.

Is it cause I didn't have cable from 2010 to 2014? Why did it happen?

>>86254152
Whenever it was that Awesome Show hit big. I want to say around 2008/9. Oddly enough, around the same time that Toonami died.

>>86254200
I could never understand why it was funny. I had tons of people in college when I was in the dorms try to get me to like it. "Dude it's so funny you gotta watch it".

But every time I tried I just thought what's the point? Why does this show exist?

Did I not smoke enough weed?

>>86254152
Thank god im not the only one who waits that stupid live action shit. Why is there an audience for it?

>>86254244
Absurdism/surrealism

Awesome Show was mostly mindless shallow fun, MDE co-opted their style and gave it real substance which is why (((they))) had to ensure its cancellation

>>86254244
I'm not going to lie, the show had its moments where I found the sheer randomness amusing. That said, it was the moment when [as] realized that they could get ratings with a fraction of the cost and effort of an animated show by throwing a silly costume on a comedian, and film them being "lol sorandumb".

>>86251629
I wouldn't really say so, after like the first 3 seasons Adventure Time went to some really weird places and sometimes it feels like they aren't writing for kids at all. There are some episodes that would either confuse the fuck out of kids or make them bored out of their minds.

>>86254264

Before, trends, ideas, and decades went by naturally. Yesterday's fads generally stayed, more or less, yesterday's. Culture shifted and brought in new blood and ideas to replace the old in an organic shift every couple of years, in what appeared to be a linear transition forward.

The internet screwed that up. Now, man has at his fingertips the culture of the past 100+ years at his fingertips. Things that would have died or faded with older generations are kept alive in a perpetual equality of availability with material produced in the present. Individuals may culturally time-travel with ease, and find refuge in the past.

In addition, the culture of the past 50 years, in particular, is kept alive zombie-like by a mix of boomer demand and the transmission of it to the future generations. The childhood franchises and stories of a man 40 years old are passed onto his children through the perpetuation of franchises and intellectual properties, renewed constantly to please nostalgia-fueled adults and willing children. It extends to art, music, and a myriad of other mediums.

I don't know if the quality of anime has declined, or I've just grown out of it, but I haven't been able to get into a new series in years. The only thing I watch with any sort of regularity is Dragon Ball Super, and that has more or less been out of brand devotion until recently. I'm actually kind of enjoying the current arc.

I fucking despise modern computer animation. Everything is so flashy and quick, the characters all have perfect circles for eyeballs, their teeth are perfectly drawn, even their outlines are perfect and clean. What I hate most is how gags are told through boring dialogue rather than actual animation. I'm not trying to be a "le wrong generation" guy here because I know hand drawn animation is still uploaded to Youtube by solo artists but they don't really hit the mainstream and get enough funds to develop their projects.

Trends still change. Getting your fill of a culture from yesteryear has never been particularly difficult especially if you actually lived through it.

So CN finally found the Spongebob.

I remember tuning into Nick and watching Spongebob literally all day. I can understand CN's motivations. I really would just sit down and watch that shit all day. I'm sure there are hundreds of thousands of kids doing the same with this Teen Titans Go.

The show is good right? Teen Titans was fantastic.
