    Old vs. New versions of shows

    Well, the example which instantly springs to mind here: X-Men: TAS, and then Evo and Wolverine & The X-Men. Seriously, it's very annoying to me that people think the latter two are better than the former - the former is frequently criticized on the basis of bad animation, but it's low budget...

    Favorite Random Quotes of all time.

    well I can think of a couple Kim Possible quotes.. and here they are. Sick Day- In this one Duff Killigan is lying in bed sick and you see him throw a tissue box at the television as he says "Are you daft, man?! Just 'cause you have her brain in your head, it doesn't mean you can't love her!"...

    Animation company with most attractive characters

    FLCL is probably the single sexiest cartoon ever made. The cast of Bleach is pretty good-looking around the board.

    American Dad - "Shallow Vows" - Talkback [11/15]

    Isn't this a romcom plot?

    Are YOU an "animation snob"?

    Jack's simply the further evolution of the limited animation techniques still being perfected in those earlier shows. You said they were all mundane. And why on earth are you bringing up the writing? This isn't a discussion of what shows are good and bad; we're strictly talking art/animation...

    "The Simpsons: The Complete 20th Season" DVD/Blu-Ray Talkback (Spoilers)

    I'm hoping it gets a re-release with commentaries somewhere down the line. But for the time being, I'm just going to pass. Really like the packaging look, though.

    Bad toon shows that has some sliver of goodness in them

    Drawn Together had an interesting, seminal concept and characters that could've have been done justice in more competent writing hands. The actual show, for all of its "shocking" jokes and subject matter, was pretty witless. Atomic Betty's outer space segments, while not really very good, at...

    Interesting T3 Crash/Some thoughts . . .

    Had an interesting crash and restore problem last night and this morning; thought I'd explain it here for mutual benefit and maybe to get a question answered (I'm flummoxed as to the cause of a data corruption). Turned on the T3 last night - dead. Totally dead, no power. Put on cradle to...

    Two Generations. One Show.

    Guess I'll have to chime in for the "old-timers" here and cite the various theatrical and early television cartoons (Yogi Bear, the Flintstones, Rocky and Bullwinkle, Looney Tunes, etc) as being the champs of multigenerational longevity... even if (sadly) these days kids growing up now might...

    Have to rest to sync T3 to Mac

    I have a fairly new T3. I have mostly just standard software, a few readers and the keyboard. Pretty much since the beginning I hve had trouble syncing. When it does it, it is fine, but I have trouble getting theh process started. I find now that I have to do either one or two soft resets...

    Arthur Season 11

    I was right, the Chicago PBS Kids station for the 5 PM airing of "Arthur" showed the Season 10 "Feeling Flush/Family Fortune" episode instead of the Season 11 Arthur episode "Phony Fern/Brain's Shocking Secret". I hope someone has screenshots from the "Phony Fern" episode showing Fern dressed...

    What do you think the most overrated animated movie is?

    Hitting two birds with one stone here. Considering Toy Story 3 came out around the same time and has been percieved as being the most perfect film ever produced, even being nominated for Best Picture, Pixar sort of does get far more glory than any other animation company, even to the point...

    Toon Zone's Top 50 Animated Shows

    My top twenty list would include: 1. Looney Tunes: The characters are very well developed, the jokes are hilarious, and the plots are climatic. 2. House of Mouse: This is not actually one I would list on the top of the list, but the major reason why I love this film so much is because it is an...

    "Toyetic" Cartoons

    Yeah, Bratz is a "girl show" that gives shows with girls as protagonists a bad name, since the 2 aren't synonymous. Unfortunately, many people think they are. But to answer the question, toy-based cartoons don't bother me, provided there's some genuine entertainment to be found in them and...

    "The Simpsons" renewed for 23rd season

    I love the Simpsons, I've been watching it on sundays for years, but I do agree it needs to end at some point, but not until they can come up with an epic finale that ties up all the loose ends.

    The Simpsons - "The Fight Before Christmas" - Talkback [12/5]

    Not too bad. Certainly better than the awful Futurama Christmas special from a few weeks ago. Yeah, I said it.

    Longest Running Animated Property?

    Yu-Gi-Oh GX also passed 100 episodes too by having 180 episodes when it ends this April so you should add that one in too. Are you including Shippuden too? If so, the total would come to 272.

    Blog Talkback: Toons of the 2000s: Bottom 5 Cartoons

    I Liked Armada too. While I wouldn't put it in my top 50 it was enjoyable enough and it did get more interesting after they put less emphasis on finding the Minicons and the annoying kids. It also gave us a pretty decent game for the PS2. I loathed Energon and Cybertron with its awful mix of...

    The Simpsons - "Homer the Whopper" - Talkback [9/27]

    Best bits were the posters: Star Wars Episode: ? Apology Eddie Murphy in: "Fat Suit" "Welcome Back Potter" "Alvin and the Chipmunks with Rabies" And the editing joke, but that was done in "Radioactive Man" 3/5, An Al Jean episode by any other name...
