Why are there no indie animated shows for kids? It's all either super vulgar like Helluva or boring slop made for "kidults"
What happened to the 6-12 demographic?
>>
>>155345269
Because all mainstream animated shows are for kids, retard.
>>
>>155345336
>Kids channels making new shit and not just dragging out the 3 or 4 shows they have
Adult Swim may as well take over CN. The block starts earlier every year (5pm now)
>>
>>155345269
Kids don't have credit cards you retarded imbecile, did you think tv channels made cartoons for the innocent benevolent reasons
Now please watch these Lego and nerf guns ads for 10 minutes
>>
>>155345379
cartoon network doesn't really have it own spongebob that it can spam 18 hours a day
>>
>>155345495
Buddy every time I open the tv it's an episode of gumball or a summer marathon for him
>>
>>155345269
Just have your kids watch old cartoons.

Kids don't watch cartoons anymore, only streamers, AI slop and get groomed by adults on Roblox.
>>
>>155345518
I figured it would be adventure time. I ain't had cable in like 5 years
>>
>>155345615
>get groomed by adults on Roblox
will they groom another adult? even if that adult is 27? asking for a friend.
>>
Kids don't watch catoons anymore, they're too busy mindlessly scrolling TikTok or being strangled to death by their mothers after THEY finish mindlessly scrolling TikTok.
>>
>>155345559
>>155345681
Shut up, Matt
>>
>>155345622
Bro I'm pirating cable, I never paid for cable, I was raised as a poor fag there are plenty of live tv sites and smart TVs nowadays have apps for that too, you just get them from google instead of the authorized store app
>>
>>155345696
Who?
>>
>>155345269
China won't fund it.
>>155345432
They're watching Game Sack and LGR, not Lego and nerf guns ads.
>>155345558
This.
>>155345615
They do watch cartoons, MeTV Toons is proof of that, they don't watch streamers as only adult perverts do that, they avoid AI anything and abandoned Roblox because of the pedos.
>>155345681
Kids don't watch TikTok, they hate TikTok because China owns it and what they're doing to the Uyghurs.

>>155346320
No it isn't.
>>
>>155345269
They do, they just don't advertise to 4chan users. They're on youtube kids.
>>
My nephew just watches reaction videos and self-described AI brainrot videos
>>
>>155346420
No they don't, we had this talk before, they watch MeTV Toons just like everyone else.
>>
>>155345269
They exist but since they are on YouTube kids /co/ won't watch them.
Also technically Animator vs Animation is aimed at kids. Yes it has an older audience but some episodes were pretty much for kids
>>
>>155346356
Wrong
>>
>>155346612
No, right.

Over 40 million kids watch MeTV Toons.
>>
>>155346608

Duck Amuck will like to have a word with you as that was made for movie going adults.
>>
>>155345269
Outdated target audience

No it isn't, it's timeless.
>>

TF China got to do with this, migger?
>>
>>155345269
TADC is right there
>>
>>155347111
90% of YouTube is funded by 2 Chinese companies, those 2 companies are PCBWay and JLCPCB.

The remaining 10% is funded by companies like Manscape, Magic Spoon, Buyee, Sendico and Tokyo Treat, it's never major players like Pepsi, Coca-Cola, General Mills, Post and Kellogg's who fund YouTube as they stay away from YouTube as sponsors.

>>155347207
That show's market is over 18 years old, and they just want to bang Pomni and Ragatha.
>>
>>155345269
I'd say it's a pair of compounding issues. The first one obviously being that cable TV is still on a serious decline. Because nobody watches it prolifically besides boomers, execs have no incentive to invest in children's animation, meaning that it's not interesting, which means even less people watch it, and so on.

The second reason being that indie series like TADC are more accessible to kids than ever. A lot of people have criticized TADC for kind of just being a kids' show with swearing and surface-level edginess, but that's what makes it actually popular among kids: it's easily comprehensible and not excessively profane or dark by any means while still coming off as in-touch and offering a level of edginess that's obviously going to be far more appealing to your average kid than a totally inoffensive background noise show like, say, Big City Greens. Even 2010s CN shows like Regular Show and TAWOG fit the mold of being meaningfully edgy in a way that kids like without being "adult".

In short, there are indie animated shows for kids; it's just that the typical marketable idea of a "kids' show" is woefully outdated and nobody in the industry is going to realize that until it's all gone.
>>
>>155345269
Stuff like Sanjay and Craig and Middlemost Post failed to appeal to audiences so why bother?
>>
>>155347384
Nothing you said is true as...

>MeTV Toons is making TV relevant again and over 40 million kids are watching it, it shows that there is still lots of incentive to invest in children's animation, meaning that it's interesting, which means even more people watch it, and so on, thanks to MeTV Toons.

>TADC's market is over 18 years old, and they just want to bang Pomni and Ragatha, they don't care about the show itself.

>No one wants swearing, hyper violents with blood and gore and surface-level edginess in cartoons, they want falling anvils/safes/pianos, bombs/dynamite/explosives and wild takes with the violents level mating that of Looney Tunes, Tom and Jerry/MGM Tex Avery and Popeye.

>Kids are too busy watching MeTV Toons to give a rat's ass about Big City Greens, Regular Show and TAWOG.

In short, there are no indie animated shows for kids, they're too busy watching MeTV Toons to give a rat's ass about indie animated shows so they don't make them.
>>
>>155347499
No they do not, they HATE edgy content, they want stuff like Huckleberry Hound, Quick Draw McGraw, Yogi Bear and The Flintstones, it's why MeTV Toons picked them up.

Kids never liked Adventure Time, those were hipsters over the age of 18 (zoomers).

Normies WANT Huckleberry Hound, Quick Draw McGraw, Yogi Bear and The Flintstones as much as they want Bugs Bunny, Droopy, Woody Woodpecker and Popeye.

Young viewers NEVER prefer watching anything that their wonderful competent parents are against over hyper lame shit like My Adventures With Superman and X-Men'97 which are so awful they will make See You Later Gladiator look like The Great Piggy Bank Robbery they're that bad.
>>
>>155347613
No they don't, kids hate swearing and they did not watch Family Guy, they were watching SpongeBob and Fairly Odd Parents.

>In before that AI rendered/generated video gets posted where a kid voiced by Tress MacNeille (the guy who made that AI rendered/generated video is a relative of Tress) asks what sex is.
>>
>>155347111
go back to /pol/, nigger.

>>155345269
Kids don't have money to spend on kickstarters or patreon donations, and kids also very early on start watching 'adult' cartoons.
When I was a kid, I don't even know if I was ten, I started watching Family Guy. Stopped that soon after, stopped liking it as I grew up.
But kids really want to grow up and feel mature.

So if you make an 'adult' cartoon, it can capture the money of immature grown ups, while still being watched by children.

Nothing you said is true by the way, you're just lying.

Normies watch MeTV Toons, and we're talking about MeTV Toons, not base MeTV.
>>
>>155345269
Kids don’t have money.

>>155348265
It’s Famicom, his MeTV toons obsession is part of his TMS obsession.
>>
>>155348422
No it isn't, over 40 million people watch MeTV Toons at least, it's as main steam as fuck.
>>
>>155348442
You’re wrong, Famicom.
