Cartoons nowadays are weird.
13 years ago
Heya!
Please let me know via note if you wanna chat in Skype, I don't normally keep it open.
I spent a couple hours today watching TV with my little sister, and I gotta say, cartoons today have very little in common with the cartoons I grew up watching. x.x
First we watched something called "Regular Show", it was about a bird and what appeared to be a raccoon getting in trouble, mostly concerning a catchy tune that had taken corporeal form and something about a magic soda or something. It was weird.
Next we saw "Adventure Time", which I was surprised to see turned into an actual TV show. I remember seeing it a couple years ago on YouTube, I guess that was some sort of pilot episode or something. :P
Needless to say, the TV episodes managed to weird me out even more than the first one I had seen before. x.x
And then we watched a couple of those senseless teen TV shows with terrible jokes, terrible acting and laugh tracks every 3 seconds. It was a bit unsettling. x3
There were a couple of witty jokes throw in every now and again but nothing too earth-shattering. How do people manage to stay more than 5 minutes in front of the boob tube in the present day is beyond me. :P
I very honestly expected my sis to tune into My Little Pony at some point but she didn't even stop on it when it was airing while we channel surfed. She's 13 years old and quite girlish, so it didn't make any sense to me. xD
I asked her about it but she told me some stuff which I don't believe would even fit in this journal so I'll leave it for a later date.

awesome times
now i's just for money...
I will say right here...right now.
That this show i will say is 10x better than most crap on tv:
Dinosaur Train
It has educational merit, it's not a popularity show. The dialogue and script is focused for more family oriented rather than actual little kiddie shows.
I AM A MAN!!!
but in all seriousness, people don't care about intricate plots, good old traditional styled animation (there are some good flash stuff, but...no way will it beat traditional methods) and other cool stuff we had.
it's just....gone.

... Even though I was never a big fan of CatDog. I never got the jokes. x.x
And Adventure Time also has some hidden tones in them that kids wont catch
its like some of the cartoons the old generation grew up with. As kid we didnt get them but now looking back we go "I cant believe these jokes really got passed the censors" lol XD
Also now Cartoon Network is giving the Annoying Orange a show too.
*Sigh* V_V
i have no hope for future shows.
indeed the 90's were a great time
