"You watch that?! It's a kiddy cartoon!"

I loved Drawn Together!

As another fan of Drawn Together do not ever watch the movie.

They left the raunchy and crude added in the disgusting and horrifying and left out the humor.

Good to know, jackfaire. I've had the movie in my Netflix queue for a long time, now, and still haven't gotten around to watching it. I've heard no good things about it that I can remember, and if that's the formula they went with, I think I'm better off not watching it ever. It's sad that they didn't go with the formula that made it worth watching to begin with :/

This doesn't give anything away but yeah the premise of the entire movie is "Drawn Together was cancelled and they want to get it back on the air"

Oh and it's the only movie to make me wish I was watching Borat again.

*squees* New season of MLP: FiM starting Saturday! I am so excited and will be staking out youtube.

When I was a kid I was a huge fan of the original MLP toys and the show. Because of this I think the new character designs look weird and unpleasant to me. The ponies all have the same eye-to-head ratio as a giant squid. Maybe to make them look more anime-like?

Anyway, glad everyone else loves it but I don't think I could ever watch it based on that alone.

I don't know, I haven't exactly had cause to watch My Little Pony lately, but Bronies do apparently exist. It must have some sort of weird adult or stoner appeal, like Spongebob.

You have to remember the original cartoon and its character designs were 100% designed to sell toys and nothing else. The storylines and characters themselves were awful. Beneath even the Carebears awful. So if nothing else they look like they have personality now.

[Lace Neil Singer]

Not to mention the fact that the cartoons now have actual storylines, plots and different characters. The original MLPonies, with a few exceptions like Firefly for example, all seemed to be pretty much the same as far as personality went. The only good thing going for the original series was that the villains were fantastic; tho there wasn't much indepth character analysis for them and you couldn't buy them as toys.

The new MLPonies all have separate, distinct personalities. They all seem like real characters, and the storylines are in depth and so are the enemies. There's also a load of songs for episodes. It just seems a bit silly to me to trash a series without even watching it, but then that's just my opinion.

Think in closer terms to movies like Toy Story or Shrek. Sure there's the upfront comedy that gets little kids (and adults as well come to think of it), but there a fair bit of subtle humor that kids just don't get but adults do.

Where am I trashing the series? I said nothing about it, as I mentioned, I haven't seen it. I am only trashing the character designs, which I have seen plenty of.

I probably wouldn't watch it anyway, as it's not my style, but I don't care who else does or doesn't watch it.

[Mytical]

I wouldn't even know where to begin when listing the number of cartoons I watch/have watched and enjoyed.

Yu-gi-oh .. all of them from the original to 5d's.
Young Justice.
Batman the brave and the bold.

That is a very minute example. Lots and lots and lots..but I am a big kid at heart so...*shrugs*

I didn't mean you specifically. I meant that I've heard people say things about the series like "Oh, it's pants" who haven't even watched it.

Watched the first episode of season two today... and it's fantastic!

I've gotten shit for years about liking Family Guy. It's "mindless bullshit" and blah blah blah blah blah blah.

Well, people with their moral superiority issues can fuck off. I love that show.

Nothing has been greater these past few months on lazy nights watching Adult Swim (except Saturdays, I hate anime). Nothing is more relaxing and entertaining than Family Guy, King of the Hill, Squidbillies, Aqua Teen (oh I'm sorry, Aqua Unit Patrol Squad). I could be out spending money drinking and being an idiot like most people my age. At least I'm enjoying myself for free.

[AdminAssistant]

blas, you should try American Dad. Fiance likes it better than Family Guy. We both love Archer, in fact, I'm going as Pam for Halloween! rawr...bearclaw!

After watching a bit of it ( God help me ), its more Power Puff Girls style than anything else. Vector animation. Giant eye to head ratio is nothing new in the cartoon world and has always been used for cute or innocent characters. Anime was just the first to use it on serious characters.

These are not serious characters. >.>

Unfortunately, I read the comments before watching the episode, and inadvertantly watched the whole thing with my perspective tainted by the alleged sexual tension between Rainbow Dash and Applejack. I wil assume this is how Bronies get started.

I did spot a Hitchhiker's Guide To the Galaxy reference though. Other than that, its fairly harmless fare.

[blas87]

I've seen a few episodes of American Dad while watching Adult Swim. I prefer Family Guy, but I'll watch it. I really like the fish and the alien.
