I really miss Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law.

(Finally!) Now I have a reason to share this!


This is one of my favorite Birdman bits. 

Also... My friend told me I'm the human version of Slappy the Squirrel. I've decided I'm OK with that.
Cartoon Network released a sneak peek of the Adventure Time season 8 premiere:


Oh yeah, here's also a promo for the Regualr Show finale:
I'm kind of amazed Regular Show has lasted this long. I've just never understood the appeal when compared to Adventure time or Steven Universe.

Regular Show and Adventure Time both lost their appeal to my younger daughter. She still watches Steven Universe.

I noticed her watching an animated episode of Undertale on YouTube. I'll have to check it out.

1.The likeable cast of characters
2.The bizarre and over the top nature of the series
3.Some of this characters getting some noticeable character evolution through the series (Rigby becoming more responsible with himself and with others comes to mind).

There, those are the 3 main reasons about why people like the show.
Its not too complicated. Most of Cartoon Network's shows have historically done best when they're aimed at multiple audiences. If kids and parents can watch something together, kids will watch things more.

Regular Show goes about this differently. Its aimed pretty squarely at adults and stoners with kids being a lucky coincidence.
I'm just going to leave this here:

Seems like an unfair comparison if you ask me. The top one has a lot of the really old Hanna-Barbara shows in it while the other one only really displays things they were broadcasting at the time, which doesn't reflect their current broadcasting schedule.

I disagree. Cartoon Network had a lot of really great ongoing shows for good chunk of time as well as occasionally showing the classics before booting them to Boomerang.

What do they even have now? Regular Show, that cartoon with the cat and rabbit, Steven Universe, Adventure Time, and the shitty Teen Titans and PPG reboots?

Cartoon Network used to be the channel to watch for animation. Now it's the same cluster of shows that really aren't that good compared to what they used to have.

I think you  meant Bunniucla there Hex(which is one of my favorites, despite the fact that they reused the same old 'dog's an idiot while the cat is a genius' trope). There's one other show i dislike besides those reboots on Titan and PPG. Its not even a reboot. It just tries too hard to be funny when in reality, it ain't funny.
^ Ah, no, it was The Amazing World of Gumball that I meant.

I don't believe there were any rabbits in Gumball, I think you meant Cat and Fish then.
