Yeah, admititly Phinius and Pherb is a pretty good cartoon. But Bobs hidden jokes will always get me.Irridium said:You obviously haven't been watching Adventure Time or Regular Show.
Granted Regular Show probably isn't for everyone. But I love it because the characters do the exact same stupid crap me and my one friend used to do.
Adventure Time is just sweet.
Phinius and Pherb is also a pretty decent cartoon.
Also Symbionic Titan, which is made by the dude who made Samurai Jack and Dexter's Laboratory.

I have all the seasons to Power Puff Girls and they still hold up as great spoofs on the superhero genre and are actually more clever than I remember.Kpt._Rob said:What happened? You grew up and now the same stuff doesn't seem as original. You still like Spongebob, and Hey Arnold, and (for some inexplicable reason) Powerpuff Girls, because you liked them when you were a kid, and so now they have a massive nostalgia factor. But if you were to go back and watch them for the first time today, it's unlikely that you'd find them even mildly enjoyable.
It's the same thing with the new cartoons, you didn't grow up watching them, you're too old to be a part of the audience that's jumping into them, and they have no nostalgia factor like your favorite cartoons.
Why does no one ever consider that it's not the world that has changed, but instead that it is they who have changed?
I actually still love these shows today and maybe even more then before now that I can actually understand what is happening and why. Sorry but I just don't think that most of what todays Cartoons are not original.Kpt._Rob said:What happened? You grew up and now the same stuff doesn't seem as original.
