>>152576292>Cocomelon, Ms. Rachel, and Peppa Pig so high upthe boomers were right
>>152576292I see...... This info feels mostly useless.
>no MAX or Paramount+Looks like Nick and CN lost yet again
>>152576309That preschoolers are animation biggest and most profitable demo?
>>152576292>Phineas and Ferb in 4th in both D+ and Hulu
Kids sure love slop, glad that's not me anymore.
Honestly, looking at this chart just made me realize the Adventure Time/Regular Show/Gumball/Steven Universe/Gravity Falls generation in the early 2010s was probably the last batch of original western animation for kids we'll ever see.Something we took for granted (that new western cartoons aimed at kids came out and replaced old ones) is basically dead due to streaming. Before, the network was the one who controlled what kids watched and slowly pulled out old shows in favour of new ones kids were forced to watch because they didn't have a choice. But kids can now just watch all the old shows whenever they want. And guess what? They just want to keep watching SpongeBob, Phineas and Ferb and Gumball which have a ton of episodes. It's similar to what killed sitcoms, but at least stuff like Friends actually had an ending and became dated in some ways (Friends is very 90s). SpongeBob is not dated and will also never end, so why produce anything new?
>>152576322Does Max even have literally any kids shows left other than Teen Titans Go! and Adventure Time?
>>152576292>No The Owl House and AmphibiaClarabros and Gwenbros not like this
>>152576441>Only sucessful show from the 2020s across the three mayor kids networks What's her secret?
>>152576441you're rightthere are no original stories anymore either, no reason to make cartoons, let AI do it and let streaming just have every existing cartoon100 years from now kids will still be talking about the cartoons from today because that's all they will know, it's genius
>>152576292Chowder?
>>152576646No plot, no leepest dore, no romantic subplots, and no LGBT characters (I think) just good old fashioned cartoony episodic slice-of-life
>>152576292Maybe tumblr was wrong, and shows actually did get worse, and it wasn't all just "nostalgia goggles" or whatever they called it.
>>152576646Kids like animals over minorities or deep lore see Zootopia sucess and Hoppers aiming to be the biggest opening for a original Pixar movie since Coco.
>People still watch the FlinstonesAbsolutely based.

>>152576441Well, there's Bluey, but that's probably the exception at this point
>>152576292Where are all of the Disney brown girl LGBTIA+ shows we were told were extremely popular because of terminally online fandoms?
>>152576292Who is watching The Flintstone in 2026?
>>152576441They still make plenty of cartoons. Batwheels, bugs bunny builders, the Barney reboot, nick jr even has a few new ones coming out
>>152576441I think things will actually improve once the pointless streaming services (HBO Max, Paramount+, Peacock) die out and everything consolidates around the same few streaming services like Netflix, Disney+ and Amazon Prime.Consolidation is usually bad, but realistically western animation *needs* to be consolidated in the same few places to be sustainable.
>>152577589Hasn't CN pivoted away from their preschool push?
The Flintstones and Yu-Gi-Oh seem out of place
>>152576609Children don't watch brown girl jailbait troon toons.
>>152576292Interesting
>>152577514Me
>>152576292Cocomelon is on Netflix..?
>>152576292Just checked Hulu, The Flintstones isn't there anymore, how outdated is this chart?Also, Flintstones is on Tubi now btw
>>152579937>TubiWe might have to start including Tubi in these conversations about streaming services.
>>152579937It's most watched shows in 2025. The Flintstones left Hulu sometime around late 2025.
>>152576292>Chart says Non-USThats in India, not the US, just as a heads up.>>152576415In India, American kids are watching Game Sack and LGR.
>>152579885Yes, in India where this chart originated.
>>152579951With its current and growing catalog, yeah, we definitely do.
>>152580000Hulu doesn't exist outside the US
>>152580022>>152580035The chart is outdated anyway, Indian Hulu is now known as Star.
>>152579951Okay then, just chcked Tubi right now, the most popular kid shows there seemt to be:>The Looney Tunes Show>Scooby-Doo, Where are You!>Transformers Prime>Pink Panther and Pals>Shaun the Sheep>Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures>The Pink Panther>The Scooby-Doo Show>Sonic Boom>My Little PonyJust missing out the Top 10 are Jackie Chan Adventures, What's New Scooby-Doo!, Speed Racer, Sonic X, and Garfield and Friends.
>>152580075That will change on March 1st.Also actual Looney Tunes out rank them all.
>>152580075>The Pink PantherShould specify that's The Pink Panther Show, the old one.
>>152580085>actual Looney Tunes out rank them all.Probably, I just checked the "Most Popular" section from the Kids section.Took me a while to realize why Looney Tunes wasn't there at all, but for some reason original Looney Tunes isn't classified as being for kids.I also ignored movies.
>>152580132>Took me a while to realize why Looney Tunes wasn't there at all, but for some reason original Looney Tunes isn't classified as being for kids.Well yeah, they were theatrical shorts meant for an adult audience.
>>152576292>grouping yu-gi-oh and Peppa pig in the same categories Also whatever the kid watches is basically determined by the parent and whatever streaming service they actually pay for
>>152576292>Star Vs. The Forces of EvilGet KEK'd Owlfags and Frogfags
>>152580892NOT AMERICAN!>Non-US
>>152580000>>152580013>>152580939>Top kids TV series by streaming platform in the US>>(based on viewing hours in the US for the 12 months ending September 2025)>>>Not US
>>152580892Amphibia has three books
>>152581807Star has three books too so?
>>152576292>star that high up in 2025>mystery incorporated still high up in 2025I swear this chart is bipolar. Half of it is slop and the other actually good shows
>>152581898There will be more Amphibia content in the future. Matt said so.
>>152581786>Top kids TV series by streaming platform outside of the US (Non-US, India)>>(based on viewing hours in India for the 12 months ending September 2025)Learn better reading skills.
>>152581918>mystery incorporated still high up in 2025I mean, Scooby-Doo is Scooby-Doo, you should check how well the other series do on Tubi.
>>152576292Link?
>>152576646Kiff is King Yo
>>152578512Yu-Gi-Oh has more good gay' old time than The Flintstones
>>152576292>people associate lore cartoons like Gravity Falls and Star vs. with hulu instead of Disney+interesting
>>152582852Again, India.>Non-US.
>>152578484Maybe for TV? Seems like kids watch stuff on streaming while people in their 20s and 30s are mostly watching CN on TV.
>>152582770Yu-Gi-Oh isn't Grand or Dad however.
>>152580000>>152582889>Non-USWhere does it say that? You can see "in the US" twice in there, once at the top and then again in the small text under the Hulu shows.
>>152583352You fell for bait anon
>>152583352OP's picture said "Non-US".Also, AMERICANS DON'T WATCH COCOMELON!!! Thats a Indian/third worlder thing, thats how we know it's not American.
>>152583385Not bait.
>>152580075>>The Looney Tunes ShowAnd people said kids would find it boring...
>>152583622Not American.
>>152576292I'm surprised Chowder and Scooby Doo Mysteries SA made it to the list.I'm surprised Teen Titans Go! didn't. It's on Hulu.
Ladybug ranked, but on Netflix rather than Disney +.Is that because the first five seasons are more popular than season six, or because Disney Channel barely runs episodes anymore?
>>152576292>Avatar the Last Airbender on the same list as CoComelon Based
>The Flintstones(1960) You anons said people no longer cared about The Flintstones
>>152581961The same Braly who stated that he opened "Fantasy Studio" out of spite due the Disney licensing deal with Sora?
>>152576646>mcs and core cast are animals something easy to sell to kids >show is episodic with simple morals that cannot make right wing parents mad>catchy songs that somehow are viral in places like Youtube despite being composed by the Gravity Falls guy instead of a popular composer like the Moon Girl guy
>>152576292wow, Amazon should buy WB because they too absolutely fucking hate animation and have no idea how to build out a successful animation division instead of just relying on legacy hits
>>152580075>>152580132>Pink panther showing up twice in the top 10what in the fuck? no for real what in the fuck out of all HB shows how in the ever living fuck is it pink panther thats popular in this day and age people only know it for fucking an insulation logo 1960's Flintstones showing up in another top 10 list is rather neat. Curious george being #2 on hulu is odd to me suprised its still a popular series I mean yeah the books are classics.
>>152586485It must be sad for you peddling the same fake narrative while more and more Amphibia content is being produced by Disney due to popular demand.
>This thread>This boardAll this shit does is remind me to be thankful I don't have kids so I don't have to expose myself to any of this worthless garbage or pay for shitty streaming sites.
>ATLA still raking up massive numbers 23 years laterHOW?
>>152580075>The Looney Tunes Showholy fucking based, purists BTFO
Why is this schizo crying about Indians for no reason here? This has nothing to do with them.
>>152586980Because he's a mutt. Its always mutts who randomly brings up /pol/ shit. He knows he will never be white so he had to punch down to make himself better.
>>152585378Maybe Teen Titans Go just sucked
>>152576292Everyone saying what shows surprised them but who the hell is even aware of the ALVINNNN cartoon? The one Nicktoons would always air where they look like little semi-realistic people.
>>152586868I think a Gravity Falls revival is inevitable
