How long will you watch cartoons for??

I'm 31 and still enjoy 'toons, though the list of shows continues to dwindle. Current faves in production are The Spectacular Spider-Man & TMNT. Avatar was a saving grace following the end of JLU. If there is a lack of new programming, I've got a rich library of animated classics to hold my interest for years to come.
 
I'm nineteen years old and I'm always going to be a fan of cartoon. I never really saw a reason for me to stop enjoying cartoons. Just because I'm older than most of the target audiences for those shows doesn't mean that I can't still love them and watch them. I still wake up for Saturday morning cartoons and I still watch some cartoons during the weekday afternoons on DVD. Whether it's something like Pokemon or Avatar, as long as I enjoy them, I'll continue to watch. So basically, I'll watch cartoons forever. :)
 
I never became really interested in cartoons/animation as a field until about a year ago, but now I hold it above live action:sweat: . My younger sister thinks I'm insane....

Anyway, I hope that I never get bored with animation. I'm not a cynical person (unlike a lot of people here:shrug: ) so I certainly don't fear that "Animation is dying" or anything like that.
 
Hopefully for the rest of my life. I've been watching cartoons since I was old enough to be propped in front of the TV, and shall continue to be a fan, even when I come full circle and have to be propped up in my old age ;)
 
Whether animation is on the decline or not, there are always going to be titles that are worth viewing. Thus I'll keep watching until my heart makes it's final beat.
 
I'll continue to watch cartoons as long as there are cartoons out there that catch my interest. Nowadays it's just that I don't care if a show is animated or not. I'll just watch something because it's a good show.
 
For the rest of my life....I love animation,and see no reason to stop watching it (IMO,there's no such thing as "too old for cartoons"....they aren't made by kids,so why should they only be for kids? )
 
Not for very long. I hope this doesn't come off as racist or offensive in any way but I can't look at cartoons the same way I used to. After I found out most of them were outsourced, it just ruined it for me. Any and all hopes of being an animator (who don't exist in the U.S.), voice actor or writer were all shattered. For now on I only watch classics, flash animated and CGI. Once again, this is a personal choice and is not intended to be presented as offensive.
 
That doesn't make sense, pretty much the only thing outsourced in American animation is when people draw frames and color and that kind of stuff. Writing, storyboarding, voice acting and anything anyone really wants to go into is still done here.
 
Hopefully for a good long time, but you never know. I have the ones I enjoy on DVD and I suppose there will always be good 'toons on the tube to watch, so hopefully forever. We will see.
 
While I can understand where you're coming from, I'm sorry to say that a lot of things are outsourced in America. This doesn't make you racist at all. I do agree with buttah about how most of the process of animation still happens in the U.S. There are still animation studios here that do the work, with only outsourcing for the frames, coloring, etc. I'm sorry that the outsourcing itself bothers you, but that's unfortunately how our country works right now. I don't like outsourcing either, but I just hope that they pay the workers fairly, unlike some of the companies I know who don't do that at all.
 
She's right. It is just the nature of the business. I would not stop watching cartoons because of this, but I would most likely change my career choice.
 
So in case I wasent clear in my other post I will watch PPG and Totally Spies forever. As for anything else mostlikly not since PPG and TS is basically all I watch now.
 
I say until I die.

As for not watching Cartoon because they are no longer animated in America... C'mon America isn't the only country that produces cartoons, I like practically all forms of animation from any country, Japan, Canada, France, Russia, Germany, etc. They're all good from what I saw in my "History of Animation" Class I took last semester.

Like other said, South Korean studio just do the tweening, color, and other stuff. The Avatar guys said in an interview here that they mostly animate the main frames, and send it to be tweened in Korean studio. If Voice acting was done somewhere else that wasn't by Americans, Canadians, and other primary English Speaking country, I think I would notice a VA sounding somewhat like my tech support guy that isn't an over exaggerated accent.
