Alright cool. I started watching it back when it debuted but never made it past season 1. Is Regular Show still good?

Nah it wasn't because I didn't like it, I just lost interest like a lot of things. I have a lot of time on my hands now & I'm very sad so dumb cartoons are Good as long as they aren't boring or stupid.

Uncle Grandpa looks really dire.

Pandering is totally fine, regardless of creator intent if the work itself portrays the character as positive (or at the very least, as long as it doesn't portray their minority status as a negative) . It's still cathartic to see "one of your own" on TV or in movies or whatever. The problem is when when representation stops at that level.

I dunno if that's even true

Cornel West warns constantly against "Santa Clausification" of specific black visionaries and heroes, remembering them solely as mythical figures over actual living and breathing human beings, forgetting that people like MLK Jr. and Mandela made constant, human failures in their advancement of an ultimately beatific goal. you can easily expand that out to other oppressed minorities; cooking figures down to their gimmicks is tokenism in the other direction but just as harmful. it reduces civil rights and progressivism into a checklist and removes the essential context necessary to internalize a greater concept

I definitely can see how it's different for other minorities who've had a much longer history of representation. All I can really offer is my own perspective, and as a transperson my representation is at the point where I'm just happy we exist and aren't the butt of a joke.

I don't really see any difference in quality except that I love that tiny-font "school bus" logo shoved all the way in the bottom where no actual school bus would have it.

I clicked on this while on my iPad to see if you linked to a specific time and now even after I flicked away the audio won't stop playing.

Sounds like you're a google music subscriber???? Or just lucky I guess.

I muted it and eventually the app crashed, freeing me from the horrible YouTube cartoon opinion man. It's hosed up that this has probably caused more grief for me than it did the guy who posted the government documents worth of redacted opinions on Phineas and Ferb.

Studios owe voice actors a lot of things, but being asked to reprise their role in a new series isn't one of them.
