The actual Renaissance only lasted like 1-2 years, after that it was mostly coasting off the same shows before fully going to shir
>>150367064It ended in 2012 when all the action cartoons got cancelled and Adventure Time/Regular Show began descending into lore/loveslop
>>150367064its kinda depressing how things were looking up and by like 2013 most of the new stuff got cancelled especially if you were an action cartoon.
>>150367041>eurotrash disguised as American by using American VAsYou mean EuroKINO? All european cartoons are more interesting than American cartoons
>pic related
Cartoons had been getting better for a while so a few new bad shows just seemed like bumps in the road at the time. And then it never got better again and the whole thing just collapsed.

I don’t see how anyone but massive tumblrfags would enjoy steven universe.
>>150367281This is doug’s most cancerous video. As if adventure time and steven universe are better than ed edd n eddy and dexter’s laboratory.
>>150370005Only The Justice Friends and Ego Trip were good. The rest of dexter was shit
>>150367041>boy and his dog adventures>two bros adventures>variable IQ family adventures>HEY KIDS HAVE YOU TRIED BEING GAY AND CRYING ALL THE TIME?
>>150370005Adventure time is better than Dexter’s Lab purely for being 11 minutes instead of 7 minutes. AT has much better pacing and didn’t halfass their endings like Dexter did.
I miss the cartoon renaissance so mucg

2010s is when calarts hipsters that think quirky=funny took over instead of actual talented artists.
>>150371553Never
>>150366950>>150367041All four of those cartoons are genuinely garbage. I'm not surprised CN is dead.
>>150371688Name 100 examples
>>150366950I'm at the point where I resent all of these shows equally
>>150371727Better than Cow and Chicken.

It was amazing, and just as quickly as it began it ended, and we were never the same.
>>150371754Wrong faggot
>>150371727Keep seething nostalgiatroon
>>150371795>Randy Cunningham>good
>>150371800Which faggot is the right faggot?
>>150371813Go to bed hothead, ace thruster movie will never be released.
>>150371739>>150371777Because they were all souless hipster trash. These were the cartoons that were labelled "Tumblr" for loud obnoxious women with colored hair or people who live in a Twitter bubble.Real cartoons like >>150371754 chowder went completely ignored while having actual hand drawn animation that didn't look like software was doing most of the work. Those four cartoons are genuinely the kind of trash that should have been on Disney Channel. Not even Nickelodeon at its peak would have ran garbage like that.
>>150371832I don't care about that shit, i just called you a fag because you are seething
>>150371754I always loved Flapjacks' late 19th century aesthetic
>>150366950All shit, so they seem to be like the other.
>>150371832>>150371813The fuck is Ace Thruster? Lmao
>>150371777>Adventure TimePopularized the 11 minute running time, "board jam" styled productions, open the doors to faggotry in children's media, and single handedly led to the beanmouth status quo dark age we're still living in.>Regular ShowSame as above sans the faggotry. Mordecai and Finn both popularized the castration of male leads and fail male relationship dynamics too.>GumballSame as above + incessant reliance on loud = funny and internet references>SUDo I even need to elaborate?
>>150371834Cope and seethe nostalgiafag, nobody cares abot you sneeding
>>150371834Only Steven Universe and late Adventure Time were labelled "Tumblr".
>>150371843Cared enough to reply, ace thruster movie will never be real becasue we called you a sperg going to bed.
>>150371848You are wrong tranny
>>150371862>Popularized the 11 minute running timeNearly every kiddie cartoon since the 90s ran on 2 11-minute segments, what are you talking about?
>>150371864>nostalgiafagWhat does that even mean? All four of these cartoons are so old that they are also technically nostalgia.
>>150371864Arrest yourself and go to bed hothead, cared enough to reply and his movie will never be released.
>>150371816>original ip>genuinely fun premise>good characters>distinct art style>action cartoon with a comedic lean as opposed to what passed for an "action comedy" later on (ex. Justice League Action and TTG)It's significantly better than the shit we have now and fits nicely alongside 2000's tv heroes.
>>150371874I don't even know or care about that shit so stfu
>>150366950>renaissanceThis was more like the hanging-on era right before the dark age.
>>150371871>Reddit Show wasnt Tumblr
>>150371862>Popularized the 11 minute running timeSo, you want 7 minute running time like Dexter?
>>150371882Oh yeah I loved those 11 minute batman the animated series episodes. Shut the fuck up, the standard used to be 30 minute episodes.
>>150371886Because you are sneeding abou the "heckin 2010's cawtoons"
>>150371913Yeah, I remember those 30 minute episodes of Cow and Chicken and Johnny Bravo.
>>150371913Action cartoons are the exception, stuff like Hey Arnola and Fairly OddParents always ran on 11-minute segments
>>150371909Stop using buzzwords you mong
>oh yeah so wholesome
>>150371913>the standard used to be 30 minute episodes.It wasn't you fucking zoomer
>>150371931Cope
>>150371886Theoretically that should be the case, but the cartoon industry has been in a rut for so long that the "current era" is still 2015
>>150371930>BuzzwordsLurk more or go back to Twitter, anon.
>>150371963YOU go back to shitter since you are a fag
>>150371882Only late 90s, by early 90s it was either 22 minutes or 3 7 minute segments. Tiny Toons for instance only had very few episodes that were 10-11 minutes long.
>>150371945Arrest
Wouldn't SpongeBob be responsible for 11 minute episodes? Or Rugrats?
>>150371987Suck my dick
Even ignoring Jewniverse, I still believe only Regular Show still had the spirit of the OG Cartoon Cartoons.Thought so when I first watched it when I was 11, and after a recent re-watch I still hold this opinion.
>>150371999Yeah but the people complaining about that are too young to remember Rugrats or early SB
>>150372004Make me
>>150372029Why should i, you are already a fag
>>150372035>>150371974And you're a sperg
>>150372061Don't be a fag
>>150372069Don't be a sperg

>>150371913Good bait.
>>150371999I would have thought networks would be responsible as it's about syncing up adverts to prevent channel hopping surely?
Is this Adventuretranny or a new schizo?
>>150372180Americanisation has only started the last couple of decades.If you did the one drop rule, you'd find very little muttification compared to, well, mutts. There are more actors pretending to race mix on adverts than there are people who do it, and those that do are the most likely to raise furbabies, plants, or believe it's evil to bring children into the world because anti-natalism. Also they're almost exclusively immigrants themselves, such as female Poles in Britain being the biggest (Afro) racemixing group.
>>150372289>raise furbabies>furbabies?
>>150372154>Isn't it Canadian?The creator is French, the show is produced in England and animated in Germany.
>>150372329Animals that replace biological children
>>150372329Pets in place of children.
>>150366950Steven never really made any friends,
>>150370425First season it was at least>Magical girls who fight monsters and raid temples for magical artifacts raise their friend's half magic kid.For some reason they decided to drop 100% of all of that.
>>150372401>creator, production and studio are all in different countries and speak different languagesGlobalisation was a mistake
>>150372444This is the future you euros wanted
>>150366950Regular show feels a bit unique cause it's an adult cast introducing a mostly child-audience to a wagie lifestyle within a framework of a saturday morning cartoon of fighting fantastical beings. Yeah both the MCs are basically manchildren, and we all make fun of how much mordecai sucks as love, but the main setting of the show appeals so much to a more adolescence to adult demographic, that it's hard to picture it slotting along side shows with children MC facing over-the-top challenges. And in a sense, it was one of the last connection the CN channel has with an 13+ to adult demographic. Once the show ended, and TT Go kept filling remaining slots of dying shows, what justification does an 13+ audience have to watching a mostly pre-teen animated channel? They all have streaming services to join now.I'm not blaming TT Go for the exodus, but I can't blame anyone for leaving when all their TV slots is 75% TT go or we bare bears: babies/Mighty Magiswords/whatever.It's Gumball that has to bring back any remaining adult viewers now.
>>150372791Europe follows America's lead
>>150372922>It's Gumball that has to bring back any remaining adult viewers now. Gumball is as childish as TTG, anon
>>150371754k'nuckles looks like he's in the middle of being transformed into a penis against his will
>>150371795Man, we didn't know how good we had it. The worst part is that those type of shows can't exist again even if there was someone out there funding them because we live in a completely different world now.
>>150372922The adults that watched gumball only care about the porn. They aren't going to watch CN.
AT, SU and Gumball are woke. Regular Show is the only straight option.
>>150373874Lol
>>150373874Stfu
>>150374015Why are there so many fags for this reddit show?
>>150374582I don't know, but most of the Mordecai x Rigby fanart is drawn by mentally retarded people.
This is a gumfag thread and you all just got baited
>>150372439It was all a pretense to get CN execs complacent. Rebecca Sugar would've died if that's what it took to get LGBT shit in a kids' show.
>>150371754I was 10 when this show premiered and even back then I was frustrated at how much I loved the style and the artwork but hated the title character. I don’t know how different my opinion would be now but I just found Flapjack too irritating to watch the show more.Mind you, I loved Chowder and didn’t find him annoying despite him also being annoying.
>>150366950Renaissance? It was the beginning of the end.AT should had ended at season 3.Regular show was more teen / young adult oriented.CN SpongebobLa creatura, bringer of the end times
Steven Universe did an immense amount of damage to CN and animation in general but its LGBT shielding prevents it from being publicly panned for:Going nowhere, having shitty characters, being gay as fuck and its complete lack of humor and wit.>But le hecking depression and aneurotypical genderfluid charactersPandering to trannies and childless fags was a bold move for a channel that SELLS TOYS TO CHILDREN.
>>150366950Regular Show was the only one that didnt completely suck
>>150367085But weirdly the show on the other board became more action focused
For the longest time, I didn't even know how Regular Show ended, or what the last few seasons was like.Back in my days, the early 2010s:>stopped watching cable around 2013-15 to go on youtube full time, with occasional late night reruns.>had the strongest memory up to S4 where they introduced a new hire in the season intro Exit 9B. Everything after that was a blur. Watched some specials or the movie now and there.>still sad to read about the ending of the shows, and see every character moved on with their lives, in headlines.>was fine with not finishing the entire show, but still had fond memories of RS and wanting to revisit it someday.>initial impression was that Rigby was mostly the biggest asshole that kept tricking Mordecai into pushing their luck about a magical device or dragging out a lie, even though both of them are manchildren slacking off their day job. Benson was mean but still somewhat sympathetic from how much Mor and Rig sucked at working.Fast forward to present day, learning more about the later seasons:>Mordecai kept embarrassing himself more and more than he was in the first few seasons. Some people kept making fun of him to this day.>Rigby ultimately redeemed himself, but people kept using that to make fun of mordicai more, even though they were both assholes to each other.>knowing Benson was alcoholic, which was not hard to tell since it's SFW hot sauce, but didn't know how bad it was.>Surprised to learn somehow an entire season took place entire in space, except most of the time they still kept doing park shit anyway. (when a show goes to space, writers are out of ideas, even though show itself is full of 70s/80s sci-fi influences)>Main final arc was about a side character confronting an evil version of himself, not rare for most shows, but it wasn't as fulfilling as a villain from the early seasons, and it felt like a late addition character, even with foreshadowings.What? Ok?
>>150375594>suchibut Jenny doesn't eat human food...
>>150366950>>150367041Admit it. You two just wanted to see Gumfag have a meltdown.
>>150376376OP here. I meant Steven Universe
>>150372922>It's Gumball that has to bring back any remaining adult viewers now.With what? Underage gay incest between both co-protagonists? Manchild NEET fighting to accomplish his boyhood dream of becoming a cheerleader? Phones are... le bad? Cuckshit between maternal grandparents?
>>150376461A shame they didn't go for mom/son incest jokes or cuckshit with Nicole and Richard. These are the only ways this dead show could bring back adult viewers
>>150372957>>150376461What? No, I mean the last connecting link between the 2010s pre-streaming and post-cable generations of CN viewers that already moved on from CN as a channel to only following individual TV shows only.Gumball is the last few shows that continues in mostly its original form (new studios and VAs and all), while new regular show and Adventure time/Fionna cake would have to go on as new incarnations instead, aiming for new generations of teens/adults.
>>150366950Made this little chart to try and illustrate what makes each the odd one out, in my view anyway.
>>150376643Anon, there was zero hype for the new season of gumball. The show the dead.
>>150377158>there was zero hypeWasn't it more due to how CN and Ben kept trying to stretch that hype beyond its breaking point? Gumball's panel at 2024's Annecy Festival had garnered more attention than S7's actual release - there WAS hype back then, especially with Ben going on and on about how at long last we will get to see how the Void actually works and what it spells for Gumball's world... but then virtually nothing had been shown for a full year - and when first half of all the episodes had been released, it turned out that the conclusion to all the void lore and Rob's fate will be crammed into a single episode that's meant as this season's finale. Ben kept overselling his show's triumphant return, only for it to reemerge out of CN's drawers as a fairly generic and lukewarm piece of Gumball media.
>>150376787>doesn't know about the regular show revival
>>150375594What happened
>>150377543>CN's daily viewership is less than what an average merch ad from Glitch gets Jesus fucking Christ. Please tell me that those numbers are from USA alone.
>>150377622They say everyone ages out of cartoons when they're 13, but that only makes sense if every single person was born between 1998 and 2002.
>>150377643>Adventure Time and Regular show saved Cartoon Netw-ACK!
>>150378026Nick and Disney seemed to be losing viewership faster so i guess they slowed down the viewership decline
>>150378041Tuff Puppy couldn't carry the channel
>>150378026Given what children are watching these days, networks might as well consider giving air time to the likes of Lankybox, Tom Sings, Gummy Dora, Slime Cat, BenjixScarlett and other brainrot content creators.
>>150371913Were you dropped at birth?
>>150371729uh no
>>150371834The irony is even at their lowest, Nick turned down Adventure time not once, but twice when they were at their worst. Even trash doesn't want that shit.
>>150371754flapjack is alright but it ended up being the pandoras box for the most gayest and shittiest cartoons known to man except for regular show cuz i dont really know what they did wrong
>>150371862>Mordecai and Finn both popularized the castration of male leadsWhat the fuck? Mordecai would cause meltdowns over "toxic masculinity" if it came out today
>>150379899The fags complaining about regular show didn't watch the show
>>150379815Fag
>>150379899I mean, regular show was airing at the height of internet feminism
