*sigh* What the hey, let's get into it. Might as well...

Well then you don't know the demographics for the Escapist then do you? I know of about twelve of those users who are under the age of 15.
So now cute is to be considered a bad thing then?
I didn't call Cute = Bad, I called an
unbearable amount of it an indicator of a show probably meant for juveniles.
That's news to me, but to answer your question, when presented with the now 480 members, you should draw the conclusion that they're doing something right and its "worthy" of your attention. Or you know, you can ignore it, or continue to post like you have been.
So...numbers = right? Just hop on the bandwagon?

Your comment about an all female cast is so incredibly sexist that I don't even know where to begin; what is it about women that would make a show about them inherently boring? I would be insane to not watch "Drew Carey's Improv-a-Gazna" simply because it features more female comedians than "Whose Line is it Anyway?" did.
Ok, what the h*** now. How was that sexist? Are the vast majority of the cast female ponies, yes or no? Does it always end every episode spouting ideals about "friendship" like every other kid's show for girls that came out throughout the eighties and nineties, yes or no?
Secondly,(rather off topic and beside the point) I've never even heard of Improv-a-Ganza. I didn't know Drew Carrey made another show after that Green Screen one.
2.) Next, what's wrong with colorful? Do you refuse to play Team Fortress 2 because its color spectrum extends past brown and grey? "Team Fortress 2 looks like a Pixar movie; what kind of impression would you venture an person to logically draw about such a game?"
Is World of Warcraft too cartoony, too juvenile for your tastes?
Mario frankly beneath your level of manliness?
Ok, when did I have an argument against color or the cartoony? I don't have a problem with colorful contrast and cartoon-ishness (if that's even a word). I do however, have the ability to realize what demographic something is geared towards -aesthetics be d*mned- and one that is towards little girls and their parents is usually something I try to stay away from, seeing as how I fit neither.
For the record, Barney and Friends is pretty colorful too, but I don't suppose you'd watch that without being tied to a chair.

Logically, you would draw the impression that it is a terrible show for five year old girls, designed to get them to buy awful merchandise of colorful ponies, that forces rainbows and sunshine down the viewer's throat at all times, and that has absolutely no redeeming qualities whatsoever...
...which is why it's so awesome that the show is actually good.
K, this reply actually made me go watch an episode. It does seem a substantial bit better quality than the phalanx of horrible kids shows that came out when I was growing up, but I'd still have to commit septiku if anyone ever saw me watching it.
