I watched Star vs. the Forces of Evil. It's not groundbreaking by any means but it's fun and I like the theme song.

The new PPG theme is dope and stylish as gently caress

also the first comment is "i hope it's not feminist" lol

This is loving excellent and now I'm way more excited than I was.

Actually the whole reboot could just be this and I'd be satisfied.

It's neat, but I do miss a little the geometric simplicity of the old one. Also that theme's twice as long as the original with like ten times as many words.

Also they're in middle school now? Weird.

I think this is just the full theme, in-show it'll probably be abridged.

Not sure where you're getting middle school from

Having now seen the shorts they've put out for the PPG reboot, I can say I'm fairly excited for it. The animation feels like it needs refining but the humor seems pretty on-target.

Of all those I think I'm most excited about Ben Schwartz

I ran through the most recent four or five Star vs the Forces of Evil episodes over the last day. I like that show. marco and jackie is cute leave me alone

I want to talk about Star Vs mostly, because I think it's a fun show. It feels kind of aimless sometimes but I like the little group that's forming with Janna and Jackie hanging around Star and Marco more. And I also think it's cool when it digs into Star's royal heritage and such (the end of "Into the Wand" was really interesting to me).

If nothing else, we got some good-rear end songs out of it.

Apparently the Bomb format is the new meta for cartoons because Star vs is airing a new episode every weekday in February.

So like, 20 new episodes? Because that's kind of insane

I've also been getting into Gumball lately, I dig it a lot. I think the ghost girl is my favorite character

I think this song has cemented Gumball as being Extremely Good, to me.

I really appreciate when Gumball just leaps into crazy animation styles out of nowhere, this clip in particular I found amazing:

I watched the EE&E movie finale a while back and I get what it was going for in giving the trio a happy ending, but the way they arrived at it felt kind of unearned.

Is there a better cartoon theme than Ducktales? I've been wracking my brain and I think it's the pinnacle of the genre, being extremely catchy, energetic, and informative.

Rescue Rangers

Loud House seems fine and inoffensive, but I'm into all these low-key character choices I keep hearing about.


I don't know how to explain it but it definitely sounds crisper than it did a couple days ago.

The issue with the original Youtube version was the vocals being mixed too quiet I think, it's definitely improved now.

Watching some Loud House and it's definitely not pushing the boundary past "competent and nice-looking kids' cartoon". Funny here and there, character work isn't very deep beyond characters having their gimmicks (I appreciate how hard they stick to "the dumb one is very dumb). That being said I think it makes it all the better that this is the show to put a LGBT main character in, because it can't be all mega-popular gay space alien shows to get that acclaim. The middle of the road stuff needs it too.

Looks like an origin story. So instead of it just being Where in the world is Carmen Sandiego, it's also Who in the world is Carmen Sandiego.

I am way into the style of this
