    I'm not really trying to argue here. I just don't like it, wether CB and FP are actually a couple or not, I don't like when they keep bringing the conflict between Finn and his feelings on-screen without doing anything about it.

    I like the Cinnamon Bun and Flame Princess relationship for all of the reasons you guys dislike it.

    who cares if you like them as a couple? they're a couple and it's something that Finn has to deal with and so does the audience.

    also wow man did my TV glitch or was the last frame of lemongrab uncomfortably long.

    If they're supposed to be a couple then It creeps me out because there was an episode where PB points out that, when Cinnamon Bun is freaking out over a nightlight that the dude is 30

    And Flame Princess is 15, max.

    I never found Zim to be very funny. Silly, not funny. The episode where he starts stealing everyone's organs was pretty good though.

    So this was announced last year during Cartoon Network's 2014-2015 upfronts, but I must've missed it. It looks like Scooby-Doo's getting yet another new series and it's apparently a more comedic style. It's called Be Cool, Scooby-Doo!

    Unfortunately, that's what the writers have failed to make the show since the 80s.

    Mystery Inc was so good. This is such a letdown. And those character designs are horrible.

  • NotoriusBENNotoriusBEN Registered User regular
    mystery inc was the only time I ever cared about the scooby doo gang. it hasn't worked as a comedy for 40 years. you need to make it a thriller or a drama.

    My first glance, I wondered why the Scooby gang was appearing on Rick and Morty.

    On review, I noticed Rick and Morty has a more appealing art style.

    Which... is saying something, I suppose.

    Like Teen Titans Go!

    I shrugged that off at first glance but then when I actually caught some of the jokes and references, oh my god.

    I think that's one show that really works as a follow up to its original series, since it's using the same hero team and voice actors. As someone here said, basically all the character development was done in the previous show, so now they're just having fun with it.

    Saw Big Hero 6. I guess it was alright but I think they missed an obvious opportunity with the story and dealing with loss.
    I think Krei should have been responsible for the fire, and Callahan after using the micro bots to survive and learning of Tadashis death then did what he did for revenge for his sake and Hiros.

    Then just tweak their first confrontation to be less overt murder and more chase away and have their fight in the test lab have Hiro try to kill him before figuring out who he is.

    Then you're all set up for Hiro accept his brothers loss and want to arrest Krei and stop Callahan from murdering him.

    And then keep Abigail dead.

    There a Cartoon Network Press Release on io9.com that reveals a Powerpuff Girls reboot, but then there's other horrifying news:
    Steven Universe/ Uncle Grandpa Crossover Special "Say Uncle:" Two of your favorite Cartoon Network series, Steven Universe and Uncle Grandpa, are joining forces for a special crossover episode! Watch as a long lost relative of Steven's comes to town to aid him in unlocking the power of his mother's gem!

    I've never watched Steven Universe, or Uncle Grandpa but I can tell, just from the advertisements that Steven Universe totally doesn't deserve to have that shit garbage show shoehorned into its world.

    I don't even know how this would work. The two shows have 2 completely different styles, and I'm not just talking art.

    I'm of two minds of this... Cause I remember there was one opening of one cartoon where the main characters needed help, and dialed a phone.

    Which was picked Eddy, Ed and Edd. Who responded "You need what? Nah, we don't that kind of stuff. Go call the Kids Next Door for that kind of thing."

    Which then proceeded to become a CKND episode.

    So I would love for them to bring back the cross overs for this generation. But UG really doesn't work.

    With anything.

    That press release also lists Transformers as a new acquired programming. Guess ever since the Hub got re-branded to whatever it's called now it got moved, or is this some other Transformers series.

  • NocrenNocren Lt Futz, Back in Action North CarolinaRegistered User regular
    No, it's the sequel of sorts to Prime. Bumblebee is in charge and Optimus is dead (again).

    Since Hasbro no longer owns the network, might as well go back to the other channel that previously aired Tranformer shows.

    Hopefully the Uncle Grandpa thing is just a dream sequence, like Bizarro version of Dogcopter.

    What even with this crossover shit. Did they put the names of all their shows in a hat and draw two at random?

    Given that Uncle Grandpa is even on the air after its terrible pilot, my cynical guess is that someone at CN has a personal desire for the show to succeed, and is willing to throw it on top of a better property to ensure that it does.

  • NocrenNocren Lt Futz, Back in Action North CarolinaRegistered User regular
    Nah, there was the idea behind Uncle Grandpa that he's everyone's relative and takes them on wacky adventures or something.

    I was picturing something like that one Cartoon Cartoon where the Grandpa told the story about how he fought back an alien invasion to his grandkids.

    No, it's pretty much 22 minutes of "Kids, this is why you should never ever ever drop acid."

    Wait, UG isn't one of my favorite series! That's not one of my favorite series at all!

    That said, i can potentially see this working. I'm reminded of the April Fool's Day thing where syndicated comic artists all swap properties for the day. Bil Keane did a Dilbert strip once that was actually pretty amusing, largely because it made fun of how insipid Family Circus is.

    no it's not. acid would at least be creative or trip py.


    it's as close as you can get to 20 minutes of fate jokes. imagine if ren and stimpy was heavily censored and intended for an audience between the ages of 6 and 9.

    I just accidentally made a joke funnier than uncle grandpa

    I just had to filter a spreadsheet with 30,000 entries for all possible misspellings of the word "Spanish".

    It was also funnier than Uncle Grandpa.
