Post endings you hated/pissed you off as a kid.
>>137380075>All of friends join in to publicly humiliate you on your birthday>And your best friend conspired it allAfter this episode, I could see why Bloo was hated, but mostly wondered why all of Foster's would do this.
>>137380075Post the greentext
Any ending where a misunderstanding is never resolved made me pull my hair out as a child
>>137380075The Scout master was an imposter the whole time. I guess it was more stupid than anger inducing. It just didn’t make a lot of sense. Unless there were hidden clues giving that information away, I just know I didn’t see any of it.
>>137380181It wasn’t his actual birthday. Bloo does it ok to her days of the year so Mac will be surprised. Except for that one time.
>>137380491>Bloo does it ok to her days of the year so Mac will be surprisedWhat?
>>137380181>not realizing Mac is the show's real antagonistngmi
>>137380181It wasn't his birthday. Bloo just does it at random. The shittiest part is that Mac knew it was coming and it was clear he fucking despised it to the point he blew a gasket, but then everybody else fucking guilt trips him into having to deal with it anyway. Fosters had a couple bullshit episodes like that.
>That episode when Dipper when he dated multiples girls>The Boys of Bummer or 90% of the Bart simpson episode in Early Al Jean era>Edna and Skinner breaking up
>>137380075This is someone's fetish
>>137380456>Unless there were hidden clues giving that information awayThere isn't, actually that ending makes a lot of inconsistencies, like the fact Lumpus was the scout master since the camp was founded
>>137380075Korra season 4 finale and the Lin/Suyin episode>lol just get over me being a massive jerkass, scarring you, and not only getting away with everything but getting a ideal super city to lord over too. Our apathetic mom got over it lol!>Lin is treated as the "bad guy" over it>Suyin's son makes a WMD to piss off daddy and had just as much to do with Kuvira's stuff as she did.>Suyin just gets to decide he doesn't have to go to jail while shipping Kuvira off there instead
>>137380705That episode of gravity falls pissed me off because dipper was just trying to learn how to flirt and there's not really a safer way to do that than with people you meet on vacation.
>>137380694There's a reason people only talk about Frankie when it comes to the show. Beyond her it was honestly pretty shit.
>>137380755Fucking Suyin man, even if you consider she's a writer's pet, how can they be so oblivious with her?What really rubbed me the wrong way the last rewatch I had, was that she said "People change, I have!" while she is exactly the same person as before: arrogant and inconsiderate of other's views and feelings
>>137380664>le good guy was akshually le bad guy all alongkek care to explain why?
>>137380456the problem is that the ending literally doesnt work. unless slugman is a habitual liar to himself and others, hes been friends with lumpus since they were little kids.
>>137381097Pretty much. Not to mention she had zero qualms about both trying to assassinate her supposed "robin" protege who was willing to ceasefire despite winning, but to let her kids get roped into it too.
>>137380705Simpsons after season 8 is trash and non-canon
>>137380075>MLaaTR>Callback to a previous episode where Sheldon was stuck on a ship>Dude was stranded out in space for decades because of timey wimey space bullshit>Having a shit time until he gets shanghaied and ends up becoming a pirate lord>Gets back to earth>Everyone treats him like shit and mocking him just like before despite basically abandoning him to all that bullshit>Clowns on them with his rag tag crew a good bit >They try to reverse his aging I think after trying to calm him down>End up turning him into an infant>Proceed to let the pirate crew take him back to space for another decade or so and bring him back>He is fucking pissed>lol don't worry about it lol>Mock and shit on him as usualSheldon should have just stuck with his pirate family and become Space Whitebeard.
>>137380075I don't know the context but this just looks like fetish insert shit
>>137381477a lost bet where Danny has to eat Dash's soiled underwear.now that i remember there were lots of fart jokes in DP...was it lazy writing or straight-up jerk-off material?
>>137381131Bloo is an imaginary friend. His personality is the way it is because that's how Mac imagined him.
>>137380181What breaks Foster`s premise is that Mac needs to go every day to the house to keep Bloo from getting adopted by another kid, but Bloo is such a shit person you wonder why Mac even bothers or why would anyone want to adopt Bloo in the first place.
>>137381372Nah Sheldon can go fuck himself, dude's a creepy stalker, that episode was one of the one's in MLAATR that I don't think was good because of the fact that they just brush off the fact that he's over 100 years old, but the fucker doesn't change even a little bit as a person after everything he's gone through, he can get fucked.
>>137381243>Season 8Is after Season 6 or Season 12 depending of your taste. The only difference between 7&8 and 9&10 is that people pretend 7&8 changes were better
>>137380075Asoka had a great ending in Rebels and reviving her was a mistake, but reviving her though time travel in the same episode where they tell you, you shouldn't revive Kanan was infuriating.
Dexter's lab, too many episodes to count.
>>137381560Blame status quo. He was doing pretty great as a pirate
>>137381131>inexplicably rude and judgmental towards Goo, lashes out to her because he didn't want to bother with her issues until it was too late>is very much vengeful towards his troubled and abusive Terrence, resorts to actual physical violence against him>pathological liar>total social outcast. it's implied he has zero friends and is the victim of mockery but on the other hand he openly mocks anyone who displays superiority and has been shown to be an asshole (the goofy goober scene where he think Bloo betrayed him even though it's revealed it was all a trap set up by Berry)>acts in a possessive way towards Frankie and abuses of her goodwill>the race episode where he gets all confrontational against Bloo for no reason at all>the adopt-a-thon episode where he fucks shit up for no reason>HE CREATED BLOO. Compare that to Eduardo, Coco or Wilt or any other fostered imaginary friend who all act quirky, but are never petty and mean for the sake of it>all that criticism is swept under the rug because he's "just a naive kid" and "he might not know any better"TL;DR : Mac's a total psycho selfish POS.
>>137380705>Dipper when he dated multiples girlsPretty sure he didn't do that?
>>137381713Clearly it wasn't great enough for him want to go back to being one considering he kept simping for Jenny.
>>137380181Craig wanted a far softer show than Cartoon Network wanted
>>137382082Do you have proof?
>>137381560>MLaaTRThe Around the World in 50 Pieces ending for me.They just leave their friend Jenny behind as a head and restart the whole process of finding her parts...
>>137380075Yum yum Danny boi
>>137380456>>137381164To me the ending just felt like them doing whatever to make it memorable rather than trying to have it make sense or anything, Lumpus being an imposter not only doesn't make sense but also doesn't actually affect anything either, he's been scoutmaster for so many years it doesn't really matter that he's a fraud.
>>137380075Any episode where a character becomes better in some way or the status quo is changed in a way that would make the show better but is then undone at the end of the episode. Sometimes it gets referenced again or is brought back in another episode but it's rare.
>>137382067again status quo
>>137382061All he did was learn how to hit on women but the moral of the story is to not do that because Alex is a numale faggot. The squeaky wheel gets the grease. If the lady wasn't a spider Stan would've gotten laid or rejected, but the point is he was brave enough to try. Candi had no right to Dipper's affection.
>>137382164At least they're still trying to find the parts that make up her body!
The series finale of Robot Jones has Shannon being an insufferable cunt to Robot.Robot deserved better.
>cartoon characters from CN are dicks>some characters from Disney are dicks>shit load of nick characters are dicksWelcome to reality
>>137380181Worst episode, even worse than the Bendy ep
>>137382306Meh, status quo or not they could've had him change at least somewhat they if really thought he'd be different, the fact he hasn't at all leads me to believe that no, he's just always gonna be a creepy stalker no matter what he goes through.
>>137380075Gravity Falls. It's been said to death but Stan being the one to take Bill down was stupid, and it was even dumber to have Stan INSTANTLY get all his memories back.
>>137381945>is very much vengeful towards his troubled and abusive Terrence, resorts to actual physical violence against himi stopped reading here. fuck terrence
>>137380075I thought it was just a fetish pic and not from an actual episode.
>>137382794Disnus ex machina
>MLAATRThe ending of Price of Love since it showed Tiff, Brit and their friend Pteresa being miserable and poor, they might have brought it on themselves given that they're shown throughout the cartoon to be shortsighted as hell, but mean bitchy bullies or not I still feel bad for them and think it's undeserved.
>>137380075
>>137380075Honestly that's pretty hot and I wish I had a friend like Dash growing up.
>>137382794Him getting the final shot was fine, getting the memories back that same episode was dumb. He should have just namedropped Waddles and left it at that.
>>137380423Miscommunication was and still is the single most infuriating plot device. I can't think of a single time in real life that it has happened to the point where it affected a stable relationship. If someone says something totally out of character nobody in their right mind wouldn't verify it themselves.
>>137380075I only hated this ending because Dash literally lost the bet, he had to run in his undies at school and I WAS ROBBED FROM WATCHING IT.
>>137383886This and characters just not going through with their decisions. I fucking hated how wishy-washy and indecisive most cartoons were when the characters had absolutely no reason to.
>>137380075She's still living in a box by the end of the episode.
>>137380075>That one parody of the Twilight Zone.>Johnny is on the plane just minding his own business.>Sees a clown outside of his window who keeps on tormenting him.>Tries to tell everyone including his mom and everyone sees him as a schizo.>Finally caught the clown and gave him his own medicine.>Everyone gets pissed at Johnny becuase it turns out that clown was helping them balance their plane.>Johnny ends up becoming the clown that balances the plane.
>>137382320It's a pretty bad episode especially considering this is Dipper off trying to get Wendy. Dipper obsession with Wendy is bad for his character, so to see him try and get out of his shell only to be punished is pretty unsatisfied.Candi crush is alsp handled bad. Dipper tosses her a compliment ahd she gets a crush. Dhe tells Mabel. Which at no point does she ever pull Dipper aside to let him know. Dipper is also oblivious to Candi until the last act. He completely doesn't understand what's going on and just spills spaghetti all over the floor.It reminds me of newer Simpsons episodes that result in Bart being told he's horrible and crying.
>>137382123Watch the specials
>>137382794Its astounding that the showrunnners didnt seem to realize that if Stan's memories could so easily come back from being erased, then that means Bill could just as well.
>>137382794Obviously Disneys idea. They hate characters sacrificing.
>>137383934Not to mention how hypocritical it is.Mabel is boy crazy for the whole show and Dipper can't have one episode of chasing skirts.
>>137381639I think the implication with Kanan was that saving him would prevent him from saving them in real time, thus creating a paradox. But yeah, Ahsoka has truly overstayed her welcome, and the only reason they got away with it at the time was because everyone was too busy with their hateboner for Rey to recognize it as a mistake. Now that Ahsoka show is coming out (RIP Ray Stevenson) and the only thing fans want from it is more interactions with Anakin, proving that Ahsoka was never anything more than an extension of Vaderwank.
>>137380075The end of the Two Dozen and One Greyhounds of the simpsons I was so frustrated by the ending that burns got away with stealing the dogs and get away with it and becoming more rich and homer hitting a light bulb for no fucking reasonMy reaction as a underage was >Thats it? Is that how it ends? WHAT?!
>>137381945>>137382467>every single wacky cartoon you liked as a kid and teenager was actually resolving around a bunch of insane, self-destructive, psychopathic, trigger-happy and sexually-degenerate bastards fucking up their own lives, all living in a madcap crapsack world where nothing ever goes right>it's just like Requiem For A Dream and Happiness 1998 but with goofy slapstick and sound librariesgrim.
>>137381502Boomers have this weird fixation with gross-out humor, it's as if they think someone farting is genuinely hilarious. I never could determine why but I always hated it, gross-out humor is consistently the worst part of whatever show, series or movie it's in.
>>137382985You know the common opinion on here is that cartoons are what gives kids fetishes early on? I don't know if I believe that, but I think its an interesting thing to bring up here. Regardless, the original authors didn't intend for this to be some sexual thing, so if some anonymous third party finds it sexual, that's not something I have to consider.
>>137385291i'm heavily attracted to furry art and pokemon so yeah kinda swallowed the whole pill on that one
>>137385291It think it's less cartoons giving them weird fetishes than them having weird fetishes and discovering them through cartoons, just because that's where you'll first see weird stuff happen. Like if you have a vore fetish, you're probably gonna see that for the first time in something animated, where it's way more common than it is in live-action, just because it's easy to draw, and very hard to film.
>>137385451Over time I have come to view it like this too, especially since even within the same fandom or even within the same fetish niches the specifics can vary wildly. Like how some people like vore with a focus on the eating while others want a focus on the digestion, it's way too varied and specific for a single source to be the universal trigger of it all, even more so when you consider cartoons don't tend to be overtly sexual.I think people are quick to blame the shows they watched but few try to see it the other way around: that perhaps they were drawn to those shows specifically because they had something that attracted them subconsciously (or consciously after a certain age). Also if shows were responsible for fetishes then anyone who watched Totally Spies would have every fetish in the book plus a couple of new ones.
>>137385331I watched a ton of cartoons, but they didn't seem to influence my sexuality at all, so that's why I'm skeptical. Its possible I got lucky, and its possible you can bend or stretch something that I'm into into something that happened on a cartoon, but you'd have your work cut out for you.Lets take fat chicks for example: I love fat chicks, and fat chicks exist in cartoons, so did cartoons influence that? Maybe, but I wouldn't say I'm into fat chicks as a fetish, and this "cartoons influencing sexuality" discussion usually focuses on sexual extremes/fetishes. Like that very unique soiled underwear thing.>>137385451>It think it's less cartoons giving them weird fetishes than them having weird fetishes and discovering them through cartoons, just because that's where you'll first see weird stuff happen. Oh, that's a really good point too. I remember reading some people speculating that it was entirely the cartoons fault, but who knows. Its important to realize that none of us are psychologists, and we can all easily be wrong even when things seem to make sense.
Fu benson in the ulti-meatum episode.
>>137382210full pic
>>137382651this episode is just bad throughout desu. definitely my least favorite in the series
>>137385641>Mordecai and Rigby act like dipshits and continue to skip out on him despite him telling them over and over and having shown in the past to be pretty lenient>Get cucked out of burgersIt was on them. Besides they get a time machine later so no biggie
>>137385617another anon into bbws
>>137385081Pretty realistic ending
>>137383976>>137380181the hell was the deal with abuse episodes, it's like they had a hard on for making the most fucked up shit happen to either the main character or making the MC become a total cunt just for the sakes of it
>>137385584Saying someone is into vore is like saying someone is into BDSM, the specifics are so varied from person to person it basically tells you nothing.
>>137386029What the hell do you mean? Isn't vore just one person eating another? How does that vary from person to person like bdsm?
>>137386027My theory is that they exist to test your moral compass as a kid. As in if you watched them and don't think they are fucked up, then it's a clear sign your compass is off kilter.
>>137380075I always felt that DP would have worked better with an actual arc or an evolving plot/mystery instead of the monster of the week style they went with. There weren't enough ghost characters so they fought the same ones like 5 times each, and to differentiate it every episode starts off with one of them being an asshole for no reason and learning their lesson at the end of it. Which is normally fine, but when every episode starts off with them being jerks then it feels like they don't learn anything from one episode to the next.
>>137386054Not him but as posted above vore is a whole process, from the act of binding of immobilizing the victim all the way digestion, people are drawn to various parts of the process and some seem to vastly prefer some parts over others but you'd need someone who's actually into vore to explain it better than me.It's like how people with a giantess fetish can prefer women of different sizes, some just want a really big waifu while others genuinely wish to be crushed by a mountain-sized woman.
>>137386054Who eats who, what orifice they do it with (if any), willing/unwilling, fatal/non-fatal, long-term/instant, Loving/sadistic, and a bunch of other variables, especially if you get into object vore. It all involves the theme of consumption but "guys who like vore" can include anything from the guy who wants to spend the night in his girlfriend's pussy, to the guy who wants to turn the souls of children into cum.
>>137381560Well yeah he’s a creep, but it’s a bit extreme considering Jenny and the rest of the group should be considered the good guys.
>>137383563Ectoplasm
>Terry Mcginnis was a troubled delinquet who was set on the path of Batman because of his fathers murder>Terry is able to conquer some of Bruces' flaws by still having family that both protect him and he can protect>all this with the guiding hand of the former Batman turns this possible criminal into the new Dark Knight without the brooding alone>Lol actually he was a DNA implant of Bruce Wayne and we were going to murder your parents to create the exact situation that created Batman>Also we got Barbara Gordon, BATGIRL, to agree to murder two innocent people and create an orphan who only narrowly backs outThe Justice League Batman Beyond episode was absolutely insane. Just negate the entire point. Apparently only Bruce Waynes genetic line has the capacity to protect Gothem.
>>137386351>guy who wants to spend the night in his girlfriend's pussy, to the guy who wants to turn the souls of children into cumLines like these are why I still come to this shithole website
>>137386955Wasn't it the lady from Mask of the Phantasm and she ultimately didn't go through with it?
>>137386165Would have been cool if Death came into the picture at some point. Bet he'd view Danny as a curious anomaly.
>>137385215There's a thin line between something being hilarious and something being tragic. Its all in the way you perceive things that determines the tone.Deadpool and Spawn are good examples. Both of them are assassins who end up having horrible things happen to them, and this results in them getting horrible scarred all across their body, but also gaining superpowers, including the ability to heal from almost any injury. The difference is that one of them is lighthearted and comedic, while the other one is dark and brooding. It all lies in your attitude.
"It's A Wishful Life" was a really messed up episode of the The Fairly Odd Parents.No wonder Timmy became so evil later.
>>137384947Ahsoka had her run, now she is in everywhere to the point she is kind of the de-facto protagonist of Starwars.>Who makes more sense to defeat Vader? his ex apprentice that apparently was building the resistance from the beginning?>Or some kind who did jack shit for many years and just shows up to kill his father?I'm being facetious, The movies of course are the main canon and everything else is background stuff, however by making every single thing in Starwars so intricately tied with every other aspect of the world is bizarre to have a character who shows up in everything but the main story.
How has no one mentioned Pic Related yet? It's easily the most frustrating ending in Ed Edd n Eddy because the Eds are actively punsihed despite not being the cause of any of the kid's frustrations in the episode and Jimmy gets away scott free. I don't give a shit if Eddy gave Jimmy a wedgie there is absolutely no reason the other Eds deserved any punishment and by the end Jimmy did far greater damage than Eddy did.
>>137387294Problem with that is that halfway into the show they retconned it to make it so ghosts are from an alternate dimension rather than actual dead people and yes that includes "ghosts" who had backstories that implied they were dead people. It was a damn mess and part of what made the show's quality plummet after a certain point. So having Death be on the show would only have worked for early seasons.
>>137385641He was completely justified here.
>>137380075This episode's bad ending gave me nightmares as a little child something about the droning voice while the world is ending outside https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=76nuer_FHWw>do it>do it>come on do it
>>137386130It's this, plus also the harsh lesson that kids need to learn: sometimes awful, traumatic things will happen to you. Karma is a tool of fiction, it's not a force in the real world. And sometimes, we need stories with bad endings for catharsis. They're called tragedies.
>>137380707yea mine
>>137380755This character makes me legitimately angry and horny at the same time. I love her.
>>137382210>filename: Undieliciousfuckin kek
>>137387556this is actually why I never liked the movie finale, The fact everyone quickly get over the ed's history and they all become bffs was so drastic I got whiplash from it. Though I think I'm in the minority for it
>>137387528Even as a kid I knew that the moral was fucking stupid. Many shows had done their own versions of the source material and FoP felt like it was being different for the sake of being different. It also made everybody act OOT.
>>137385641Nigga how did he not die right then and there? Sure, it wasn't the Death Sandwich but there's no blip of him turning into a salt shaker or some juju like that. Justified or not, we were denied an aftermath.
>>137387269You are right, I guess I thought the character for Barbara Gordon and whoever Phantasm was looked the same in the cartoon, so mistakenly thought it was her this whole time.
>>137383976I’m only angered at how Iggy got all the blame when it was Sid & Stinky the ones fucking everything.
>>137387408Spawn always came off as comedic to me because of how edgy it was. I loved the comics but i often giggled at the melodrama.
>>137380075Every Disney movie ever.
>>137382384considering the original pitch was Robot Jones telling the story of how he led a robot uprising that destroyed humanity, the many endings where he gets shit on would make more sense
>>137380181For me it was the Fosters Goes to France episode. Mac spends the entire episode desperately trying to get everyone to get their shit together so they can take his possibly once in a life time trip to France that he wanted to share with his closest friends. But then grandma foster decides to act like a sociopath out of nowhere and steal the tickets, leaving everyone blaming Mac for losing them.It just felt so unfair.
>>137381560Sheldon fucking jenny is the best end
>>137380456It's a completely bullshit ending and Im for it. Not just to be contrarian, but also because it was absolutely dumb and inconsistent. It's the sort of show that would have had the campers die in one episode and be alive the next just for laughs, if they felt up to it. It was a lore show, it was just a dumb show.
>>137381945Or, now hear me out, what if, now check this,.....he's a child and these are the silly things kids think and do, but with it being a cartoon it is much more, dare I say, cartoonier?
This fucking episode
>>137381560That is a shitty yet fair point. Especially after being a space voyaging pirate. He would have been way over Jenny and at least gotten lade once. The 100+ year old virgin, lol
>>137390055What happend?
>>137381555Counter point. Good Wilt Hunting shows that imaginary friends are the person the child needs when growing up. For the most part, without Bloo he would have been completely subject to his brothers abuse and unable to step out of his shy, quiet intellect. He's lonely and fairly reserved early on, he literally has no other friends that Bloo and the ones he makes at Fosters.
>>137385081The Simpsons always had these types of endings. The average family isn't supposed to win against the unfair system.
>>137382123Look at the first movie, Bloo was way more tame, he was a super grounded character before they mad the switch of making him an asshole.
>>137390155Implied inbreeding
>>137380181Fosters is one of those shows that I have really fond memories of, but hate most of the episodes. Craig usually makes great shows, I don’t know what went wrong here
>>137387471>poke>poke
I really just fucking hate abuse/mean episodes and I’m glad newer cartoons don’t do that for the most part. It’s like they’re trying to do black comedy or a moral yet completely fuck it up and leave me in a bad mood. Shit like cat dog and robot and monster and so fucking bad. I can at least put something like Hilda or moongirl and be sure I’ll enjoy it/be in a good mood
>>137390222Liar>>137390155Dexter asks deedee to teach him how to be happy since she always seems happy and he is always miserable. He fails at every exercise she suggests to him until eventually he "gets it" and starts to destroy his lab while dancing and laughing. DeeDee is disturbed by the destruction and flees while crying that she can't get through to her brother. After the rampage dexter realizes what he had done and slowly begins to rebuild his lab. It's been a while since I've seen it so I might have missed a plot point or two but that's the gist.
>>137380765She was a bitch too a lot of times. The worst was the Halloween episode where she yelled at Bloo for giving Mac sugar despite him literally thinking he was going to die.
>you insulted my sister's appearance so you deserve to be horribly disfigured for the rest of your life, that is now probably going to be very short>these things are comparable and I have the moral high-ground, I'm totally not a psychopath This is a reflection of the cancel culture that Justin Roiland would later become a victim of
>>137390617That always bothered me too. A horrifying painful death in exchange for an insult. He didn't even insult her that i can recall, he just got with a girl with bigger tits which made her feel insecure.
>>137380456For me, it was the episode where the drillmaster dad found a love note, made by his daughter to the monkey, and he thought the reverse was what happened. Then he tormented the entire boy's camp for the rest of the episode.Episode ended with dad figuring out it was her daughter that made the note and was glad, but the boys were still getting tormented anyway even after he figured out the misunderstanding.
>>137383726If it was just sweat I would agree but that jockstrap hasn't been washed in probably months, the putrid smell is combined with piss and fart.>>137383892Did you wanted to see it due because the bully got punished or you wanted public nude humillation?
>>137390055>DeeDee treats her brother worse than Lynn Loud jr. and Mabel>Autists worship Genndy's balls
>>137391187Dexter's Lab as a whole is meant to be less realistic and more cartoony than any modern show.
>>137391187She just wants to play. She isn't intentionally mean to him.
>>137380755Suyin was an unbelievable piece of shit and the writers genuinely didn't seem to think that any of her actions would be seen inb a negative light by fans. To this day, the idea that we're supposed to forgive her or think Lin was in the wrong baffles me.
>>137380181THIS! I absolutely hate that episode. It makes me wonder why Mac still friends with Bloo after this?
>>137381574Homer's Enemy is the perfect ending. Fuck you.
>>137387471The greatest cartoon of ending of all time, you just got filtered.
>>137381131Bloo is just the side of Mac he keeps hidden away inside. All the imaginary friends are just pieces of their creator's ego brought to life.
>>137391270She is intentionally mean and feigns stupidity. There are numerous episodes where she displays comptency as needed before slinking back into "what does this button do?" modeAlso while we're on this topic, Pinky was the smart one in Pinky and the Brain.
>>137389861And it was going to be canon apparently
>>137381574Not that anon but this episode was literally just 2 episodes into season 9.Probably one of the most objectively awful episodes of all time because of how it fucked with both past and future canon of a generally well liked character. Bad episodes tend to be self contained boring, skippable, and poorly written trash. This one extended its slimy fingers into infinity.
>>137383934>It reminds me of newer Simpsons episodes that result in Bart being told he's horrible and crying.Simpsons writers are still seething that Barthood is still the best zombie simpson future episode.That's why they tried like 5 future episode with a focus on lisa after that
We never found out what happened to the dog
>>137387855>the world is vored by appliancesBe grateful it gave you nightmares and not something else
>>137380075The ending of this episode was insanely mean even by this show's standards and it makes Tootie look like she's stuck in an abusive on-off relationship.
>>137381945Boys will be boys
>>137380181It's bizarre how wildly different this character was from the movie/pilot to the full show
>>137389861And also hard to believe with how little he changes as a character.
>>137386550A little, Jenny and Brad are still teens though, they can be dicks or insensitive at that age even if they’re good people at heart, and it doesn’t help that Sheldon keeps doing shit that gets on his crush’s nerves.
>>137393551You know what happened. You just can't accept it.
When I 1st saw this I was young and immature, I didn't appreciate what the symbolism represented.Aki's vanishing wasn't just hers. It was also the end of all of Jack's adventures.For decades we wanted a conclusion to Jack's journey and we got it.It's over. Or you could have paid $60 for a mediocre hack/slash to get the happy Disney ending.
>>137393495An episode that was a Season 8 leftover.The problems were there in S7-8, and I think between 12 and 15 the show become more and more unfunny which was the last redeemed quality it had in the late 90s and 00s.
>>137383831This. Could even have had dipper/mabel say something bittersweet like 'well, I guess we'll have to make some new memories next summer'
>>137394388>Aki'sGoddammit, ASHI.
>What? Patrick took your money, ate the whole meal, and then spent an afternoon and full night playing with the toy, and now you want a turn?>Oh my god you are so greedy fighting with him, you should be ashamed>Here are some more toys spongebob, pay for both yours AND Patrick's
>>137394751>capitalism>the episode
>>137384331pretty sure Hirsch wanted another season desu
>>137385641They probably found a way to get some afterwards. Wouldn’t be the craziest thing to happen. Also benson kind of broke a rule there
>>137390375The episode that end with puff getting taught by SpongeBob in jail. How do torture or annoying elides get old? They even did it again by annoying squidward on a trip in a new episode
>>137393738i recall the Fairly Odd Parents becoming more and more dissatisfying with its endings over timeprobably b/c every character got flanderized into a nagging bitch
>>137385617yeah except i'm betting you had exposure to irl fat women before you had exposure to them through cartoons. it may also be that some other fetishes were formed by cartoons i watched as a kid, and through those fetishes i developed some weird fetish-by-proxy for furry characters. it also doesn't help that i'm a faggot, maybe growing up it felt less wrong to be really interested in male cartoon characters instead of actual boysprobably part of the reason a lot of furries are gay. but on the other hand, something like the furry fandom would attract predominantly gayer people anyway
>>137381131Craig said Mac and Bloo are the ID and Ego
>>137388433I don't know about you but when I was about that age people went from friends to enemies to friends to enemies at the drop of a hat.People would be friends, get into "fights" (not that they were very dramatic in elementary school), be mad at each other and eventually hang out again.So the other children helping The Eds out in the movie isn't that weird.
>>137390617Didn’t he get raped by his brother
>>137390617Summer also cheated on him with the Mad Max dude for 5 months, and Morty knew this.
>>137390617Never understood why Morty was a sociopathy.
>>137394320Aku ate the dog
>>137394388I don't like either ending, the first one erases an entire timeline's worth of innocent lives and is treated as "bittersweet" when that is actually fucking miserable. But the second one is handed off too easily and cheaply
>>137395383Yeah. In a bush.
>>137386955That was the Phantasm, you retard.>>137389134No, you don't get off that easy. It was the Phantasm costume and everything. You're angry at something you paid no attention to.Now, that being said, I actually agree with you about the plot. It would have been better if they did the exact same plot without the gene editing. Have Terry and Bruce be compatible donors and Terry not accept the coincidence and accuse him of tinkering with his DNA, then Waller can come in and tell him she was just grooming him since birth to be a new Batman since he was so similar genetically. She can still use the BatDNA sample to compare against the school records of all the kids in the country or something. Mastermind things behind the scenes so the dad gets transferred to Gotham to work for Powers and plan the assassination which still doesn't go off. Then pure dumb bad luck takes care of the rest.
>>137380181>could imagine any friend>imagine an asshole
>>137395782Anon that timeline was never meant to exist. Remember that it only came to be because Aku messed with the timeline by sending Jack to the future, none of that was meant to exist in the first place and none of those people were meant to be born. You're thinking of all the people from the dark future who were erased but you're not thinking of all the people who had their future robbed in the first place by Aku's intervention.Even those that did find some measure of happiness in Aku's future did so despite the state of the world, not because of it, and it's still a world full of weird beasts, mercenaries, death and violence. Even if he made friends there, can you blame Jack for wanting to set things right and prevent such a horrible future from ever becoming reality?
>>137380755>as a kidZOOM ZOOM!!!
>>137395964>Anon that timeline was never meant to existDon't care, countless innocents still erased, more lives snuffed out in an instant than Aku could ever hope to achieve.
>>137380456tbf I think that ending exists solely to show Heffer (a Nickelodeon character) in a CN broadcast as a final fuck you from Murray to Cartoon Network
How has no one posted this yet? To be fair it’s not just the ending, it’s the whole fucking episode
>>137386165Butch Hartman and Chris Savino are the biggest hacks in the business and all their praise is unjustified
>>137387471BBRae is better
>>137391168Both
>>137380181Why this show had a ton of shitty endings?
>>137394751post-movie spongebob episodes like this are insufferable, patrick acting like a fucking retard the whole episode and spongebob gets shat on for being mad at that bullshit, it's frustrating desuthis is the shit guy defends btw, nu-spongebob and its apologists are fucking cancer
Every single episode of this trash.And Nick wanted this to be their next SpongeBob, mind you.
>>137396425They wanted it to be their next Rugrats, they didn't think Spongebob would take off like it did.
>>137395659when you know that millions of alternate universes/timelines exist and death means nothing, you lose all sense of compassion
Not an ending but i really hated how they treated him in that episode.>Bolin not helping him at all and leaving him to rot in a cell>Asami throwing him under the bus to save her company> Lin, his piss poor excuse of a mother figure ignoring his evidence and arresting him without a second thought> Of course Korra always staring a fight whenever he tried to calm her down.
>>137382794>>137384393>"oh no good guy died">5 minutes later>"jk he's fine"ditto, iger's a fucking pussy.
>>137394388>>137395782It isn't a perfect ending either but this discussion always makes me a bit sad that so many forgot about the comic's version of the ending.>jack stays in the future>builds a whole-ass armada with the scotsman and most friends from the series>that includes giving some closure on certain plots like jack actually training da samurai>grows old and implies that its the path to that vision from the guardian episodeShame it just ends at that instead of having a bit of a continuation, but still.>>137387556the school photo and lost wallet episodes were worse. at least jimmy was shown to be clever before and had some understandable motivation for that
>>137387909>sometimes awful, traumatic things will happen to you. Karma is a tool of fiction, it's not a force in the real world. And sometimes, we need stories with bad endings for catharsis. They're called tragedies.it's also the reason why i don't get legitimely upset at how "unfair" shit is in these cartoons. Justice and Fairness already have all these grey lines in real life, so think of how subjective it'd have to be in fiction.
>>137396593
>>137380181Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends had a knack for infuriating episodes with the payoff making them go from plain bad to completely and utterly awful: >Foster's goes to Europe >Tickets that Mac won for himself and main cast had been pickpocketed from him by none other than Madame Foster herself, so that she could take the trip with her geezer friends >Everyone, Wilt included, would berate Mac for it as if he had eaten a flash-fried toddler >Thanks to Madame Foster's ruse, episode's flavor character Eurotrish manages to return to her creator, only to be told to GTFO back to Foster's As with FHFIF's most episodes, this one was 22 minutes long. 22 minutes worth of storyboards and storylines that had to be checked and approved. And Craig along his team saw no issue with having this mess finished and put on air.
>>137397374Oh hell yeahLike what the fuck
The entire fucking spongebob episode where they record a movie about mermaid man and barnacle boy and it's revealed at the end patrick never took the len cap off, it made me so unreasonably mad as a kid.
>>137390617He didn’t even insult her he just broke up with her
>>137397374That still pissed me off too
>>137380755Suyin was annoying for any number of reasons>lol monarchy is so antiquated, we need liberal democracy in this world>lol you thought I was going to lead the Earth Kingdom out of this crisis and towards democracy?
>>137389861I concur.>>137393480Sketch art plz?
>>137383563Imagine how badly people would melt down if this was a gag today.
>>137384398Wendy’s also the town bicycle
>>137384398>Girls Dipper has hit on:4 (counting Wendy)>Guys Mabel has hit on:14
>>137384398He wasn't even chasing skirts. At most, he got the contacts of a few girls and flirts just a bit and the show treated him like he was stringing on Candy while dicking down the entire town.
>>137380755there are so many bad episodes and such bad writing in Korra I dont even try to think about it
>>137390375Robot and Monster was kino though.
>>137387294>>137387559>story about ghosts>no mystery that the hero's gang can solve by leveraging the memories of people who've passed away, or just solving the unresolved issues of ghosts plaguing the town so they can pass peacefully and having the characters learn more about themselves through these experiencesHow do you center a story around ghosts and never use what ghosts actually are as a plot element
>>137396946i think it's messed up to make characters inexplicably mean to another just for an episode. unfair things happen all the time but that's different from Patrick suddenly deciding to be a massive chode
>>137398876Style over substance. It has definitely aged well and is fondly remembered by most zoomers for its visuals and production design…only. Nobody remembers how poor the writing was for most American episodic cartoons broadcast between 2007-2009, with some obvious exceptions here and there. It was trapped somewhere between 2010s loreshit and 1990s in-your-face attitude, with a sprinkle of passive aggressive Gen X angst typical for the Bush Jr era.And also because >>137396250
>>137383563I forgot how much of an asshole Danny could be lol.
>>137380075That one later season episode of Dexter where he gets picked on for being short so he makes an invention that shrinks everybody else and still gets picked on because being short is the norm and now he's too tall.
>>137396250Which one is the bigger hack?
>>137380181Why does this episode ever get mentioned compared to the bendy one
>>137399100Bendy was an annoying little shit, Bloo is a monster
>>137383976What was Craig Bartlett thinking when he made this shit?
>>137390617The entire smith/sanchez family have been unlikeable sociopaths since season 3 and at this point, I want the show to end with them all dying and going to hell
>>137399100Because Bendy, like Goofball, was something that happened only once per series. Meanwhile everyone else is stuck with Bloo no matter what.
>>137389861*rapingFTFY
>>137399117>>137399269Thing is the whole cast were kind of dicks in this episode
>>137399269I thought he was human.
>>137399269Unless Frankie and Goo torture Mac by making him overdose on sugar until he gets a heart attack and dies
>>137386165>>137387294>>137398876>>137399028The entire phandom has survived on tumblr purely through exploring the concepts of half dead superpowers and the afterlife and willfully ignoring the worst of Hartman's ideas.
>>137395942The show's explanation was that Terrence bullied Mac so much that Mac created Bloo to protect himself. It goes a long way toward explaining why Bloo can be so ruthless, and without Terrence around to channel his energy, why Bloo acts out. Bloo can also be seen as Mac's escaped id. Mac is a goodie two shoes, unfailingly polite and helpful, and he needs Bloo to have any sense of his own self at all. Bloo is selfish and destructive and needs Mac to control him. Mac and Bloo are the obverse and reverse of the same coin.
>character tries to eat/drink something special the entire episode>gets a final chance, he fails even at the very last minute
>>137399118A way to kill a character perhaps?I mean, that faggot never shows up again, I think there were like 2 or 3 episodes where he makes small mute cameos as part of background, if it was intentionally done to not let the execs push a character then I'd consider it based, but I honestly don't know enough as to know if there is a reason for the character or the episode, I do remember watching it and disliking it, then at my country they would bring the episode every few months... I don't get why!
>>137396425It's a shame because I loved the idea of Cat Dog, just not the execution. There were a few episodes that I didn't mind as much where, yes, they'd get shat on, but they'd overcome it as bothers, but most had very unhappy endings for the person who deserved a better ending (Usually Cat)
>>137393480What do you mean?
>>137399705>I loved to see Benson eating Rigby's burger>I hated to see Benson eating Mordecai's burger
>>137391039How does a bison have a mongoose for a daughter, anyway?
>>137399710okay but the reason Iggy never showed up again is because everyone hated this episode, the episode wasn’t made to get rid of Iggy
>>137399118>Dan Povenmire FTFY
>>137380075>Bro look out! The bad writting is gonna kill y-Honestly, one of the worst endings in the last 10 years. It didn't just affect Toffee, Marco, Jackie, Moon, the MHC every single character that had connections with Star suffered from this shitty ending.
>>137384331obvious sequel hook
>>137399899Iggy as made to get rid of the episode then?
>>137394388>For decades we wanted a conclusion to Jack's journey and we got it.More like a decade.
>>137387471I'm gonna watch only the meta Teen Titans Go episodes and the movie. They go over this in one. I think the smug posting from the voice actors has died down because they see that Young Justice is what people actually want and Teen Titans Go was only ever popular as the last thing on Cartoon Network 24/7 because new cartoons don't get made anymore.
>>137380181About half of the episodes were utter shit where you wanted to murder every fucking character in the show except Frankie. The other half were either forgettable.
>>137400166And better yet, show's non-movie finale is concluded with Cheese becoming a full-time inhabitant of the house!
>>137380075phantom planet pissed kid me off so bad. first fandom heartbreak right there>>137398876they kinda did that once with the original wisconsin cheese ghost. i think the animals vlad shot as well.
>>137399118It was actually written by the late Steve Viksten (who voiced Oskar)
>>137380181>>137386027>>137386130>>137387909>>137396946>>137398969>>137390228>>137400166>>137400300Craig says the Foster's writers were trying to emulate cringe comedy they were into at the time like the UK Office and Curb Your Enthusiasm. Kind of a love it or hate it genre.
>>137399990no, Iggy showed up before Arnold Betrays Iggy
>>137399710>>137399899Iggy's last speaking role was in "Gerald's Game".
>>137386027>>137386130I always liked what Pepper Ann would do, they'd have the generic sitcom plots where Pepper Ann learns a valuable lesson and you think everythings going to work out and then at the end they pull the rug from under her. It's just enough schadenfreude to make you laugh without drawing it out.
>>137400489British humors work like that because every single person in Britain has a natural sense of superiority that makes you want them to suffer or be ridicule, it doesn't work if the characters aren't like that.
>>137400137Young Justice is dogshit that only appeals to teenage girls.
>>137396110Ah yes, because the decades, maybe centuries of Aku's reign was excellent for everyone and nobody died, and some fringe groups the managed to carve out some semblance of normalcy are worth more than the entire planet's proper future.Retard.
>>137394791Well yeah, if Bikini Bottom was socialist they wouldn't have food or toys.
>>137381556you just have to believe he is the coolest thing
>>137381556does bloo even get a redemption ark or is he always a shit person
>>137400914Yes, people who actually did exist matter more than people who never did, you absolute faggot. Erasing countless lives because "they're suffering under the rule of Super Satan :(" is the logic of a maniac or a complete dumbass. You might as well go back to the beginning of mankind and wipe them all out to prevent all the suffering that's coming their way if you want to be that retarded.
>>137396483CatDog could've never been the next Rugrats because the show has a completely different appeal.Rugrats was relatively laid back, the plots were more realistic than most cartoons(but if they needed to get cartoony they could always have the episode set in a dream or the kids imaginations), the gags were lowkey, it had both kids and parents the audience could identify with. There was a degree of continuity that existed so you were rewarded for paying attention. Just in general it had more in common with live action tv series than most cartoons, it was something the whole family could enjoy.By comparison CatDog(and Spongebob) were more on the lolrandumb edge of the cartoon scale where the main audience were very young children and potheads.
>>137401068only frankie is redeemed with the destination imagination special, which is the official ending to the show.imaginary friends cannot change their behavior. they never learn to grow up, they are born as one thing only and they stay that way until they (or their creators) die.
>>137381560Only a sociopath would view it this way.
>>137401143thats pretty bleak
>>137401143What about Wilt? Wasn't he shown to be pretty different before he got fucked up? And he even held a grudge against the friend that fucked him up, which isn't normal behavior for him.
>>137396517There's many physicists who believe in that and they don't turn that way. The idea that if there were more people, the people around you would matter less is ridiculous and there's no evidence of that happening in real life
>>137401116I mean you're not wrong from a direct comparison standpoint, but the idea was that CatDog would be Nick's next huge hit after Rugrats. They legitimately had no idea that Spongebob would be the hit that it turned out to be, and vested an unreasonable amount of faith in CatDog as a pet project. The staff that worked on CatDog themselves even reportedly hated it and wished that they'd been assigned to other shows, I have no idea what the fuck Nick was thinking.
>>137401418have they experienced traveling to those? no.. , if there was a real world example things would be different, it's like someone SAYING if you die you'll come back, no ones going to test it so they don't try it, but if you KNEW you would and have experience it yourself, you'd be doing all sorts of dumb shit since there's no risk in it anymore
>>137401261you dont say. its even worse when you realize that1) in this universe, people can actually make human-like imaginary friends (see >>137399269 or picrel which is canon btw)2) imaginary friends are regarded as subservient slaves, since their only reason to exist is to serve and educate their masters. the world that frankie, goo and mac all inhabit is segregated (the episode where mr herriman is looking for a job depicts a sign that clearly says “friends need not apply”).i guess it’s also why the show is so “infamous” on this board, the concept itself is kinda eerie (>>137381945) and can end up in total uncanny territory if you dont set up the in-universe rules in a proper way (and the fact that everyone acts like a dick makes more sense when you consider that >>137400489).an adult swim-esque revival of the series like samurai jack, with mac and goo as older teens, story-driven episodes and a stronger focus on horror and drama would have been a great re-imagining of the series. plus craig and lauren’s core message of “always doing/fighting for the right thing” wouldn’t have been weakened or compromised in the process, it could have been explored in ways that don’t feel superficial or shallow.
>>137400914>Ah yes, because the decades, maybe centuries of Aku's reign was excellent for everyone and nobody died, and some fringe groups the managed to carve out some semblance of normalcy are worth more than the entire planet's proper future.Your whataboutism is stupid for only Mother Nature can decide who's worth or not. I don't hear you crying the fact that Dinosaurs most their future.The problem here is that timeline plots are stupid.
>>137401168Nah, he lost all sympathy when he decided to atral Jenny’s blueprints just to try and score a date with him.
>>137387528It could've worked if it was revealed we we're only seeing one-side to the Timmy-less lives of everyone else.
>>137399373>and willfully ignoring the worst of Hartman's ideasGood, his whole "dur the ghost aren't dead people silly" really took some edge away from this show. Also Sam was a shit best friend, that one anon making the master post about her will always be a highlight.
>>137387528If I'm remembering it right, I thought the message of that was pretty good, it doesn't matter if the people you love would lead more successful or financially richer lives if you never existed, they love you all the same. Hell, for lots of people having kids is already giving up on being anything other than a parent, and they're happy that way.
>>137395964I like to have a little headcanon>years past, good future>the Scottsman, while a loud man is also a family man>gets dragged on a school field trip to a museum by one of his daughters>he's pretty dam bored but does it for his little button>get to the Japanese part of the tour>the Scottsman stops once he see's a painting of an old Japanese Emperor>he begins to laugh, but doesn't know why>"daddy, what's wrong?">"Nothing me wee lass, just... thought of an old friend"It's silly, but I like it.
>>137401113The people of the past whose future was utterly permafucked also did exist you dumbass and the future was theirs to begin with. Your best attempt at bait is trying to advocate for the perpetuation of a fucked up timeline that was never meant to be because "muh people that exist in it". Meanwhile those people themselves hate that timeline so much they're willing to sacrifice their lives to help Jack.
>>137401936The dinosaurs` future WAS death. You're confusing events that are simply a part of the cycles of nature to direct unnatural intervention. Your stupid example would only be valid if you knew for a fact that some time traveler changed the meteor's course to wipe out the dinos on purpose. But don't worry, nobody was expecting a tripfag to show signs of intelligence.
>>137380705He didn't even "date" them, he just flirted with them for a few minutes and got their numbers.
>>137400701alright correction, the reason why Iggy never got a major role again is because everyone hated Arnold Betrays Iggy
>>137380075he probably used his ghost powers to make it pass through his body without anyone noticing it
>>137399981>Game of Thrones and Star Vs both aired their finales the same day
>>137380456>tfw I liked that ending
>>137403064I mean it's not impossible, it would just depend on how much Aku's presence shaped the development of his people. If their story remains largely unchanged then an alternate version of him might well be born in a peaceful world.
>>137402958pic?
>>137394388Genndy ripped off TTGL with that ending
>>137403068>permafuckedYou yourself admitted there were groups that managed to live relatively normal loves despite the reign of Aku, killing him in the future gives EVERYONE that chance. Wiping out countless innocents for a future that "should have been" is terrible. And again, a scale of total annihilation of life that Aku could never hope to achieve. Any retard who thinks it's better to never exist than to suffer and struggle for the hope of a brighter future should go ahead and prove their point by killing themselves.
>>137403124>cycles of nature to direct unnatural interventionAku is literally a natural force of evil if you want to play that stupid game, his ability to fuck with time is as natural as anything else.
>>137403557Its a cartoon, though. They can make up any excuse for why the same people of the future would exist, or use no excuse at all and just have them there in the future.
I get that the status quo is king in the simpsons but I always hated how Brother From Another Series ends with Bob going to jail anyway and the next time we see him he’s just back to being insane
>>137403600Ashi ceases to exist because killing past Aku prevents the events leading to her birth because he's her father. Why would this not apply to anyone and everyone who was only born because of Aku fucking with things leading to their parents meeting?
>>137390617>>137399243It being a season 3 episode, I just assumed that the women writers they brought onboard were responsible but the episode's credited director and writer are both "men" somehow
>>137403747I don't know, but that's fixed with writing. You can say Aku ceased to exist, so everything directly related to him was plucked out of time and space, but things indirectly to him are still there regardless. Why are they still there? Take your pick:1.) The timeline quickly plugged that hole to prevent further damage to time and space, so everyone's still alive due to what essentially amounts to a messy patch job in the fabric of time2.)Those things were going to exist anyway. Aku throwing open a whole in time is what messed things up and ruined the lives of people who'd be alive regardless.3.) Some other third thing.The fact is that, thanks to this being fake, we can make any bullshit excuse up that we want to. It doesn't even have to be a good one, just not so bad that the rest of the story is unbelievable.
>>137380755Suyin was the absolute fucking worst.>lol I've totally changed >Says she doesn't want to be viewed as a monarch as her flimsy excuse for not wanting to help the earth kingdom from imploding when she literally has her fucking denizens call her "The Matriarch" >lol we should go democracy, but I'm not going to do shit while everything falls apart>What's that my protege? You want to leave my ill gotten city to help stop the anarchy outside our walls? Fuck you! I will outright disown you for disobeying me! >Don't worry Avatar, I'll wait until you work out a plan during this ceasefire! Proceeds to try to fucking murder her protege in her sleep and ropes two of her children along for it.>You must pay for what you've done Kuvira! Not my son though (even though he was debatably worse) lmao! He just gets put in kiddy time out in our fancy mansion because I said so!Lin was 100% right about her. Bitch never changed.
>>137403809This all seems really bad and convoluted when you could just have split timelines and have Jack kill Aku twice.
>>137403410Oh fuck me, I thought I had it saved. Basically is into detail about everything Sam did to Danny and how negative it all was, lie her blackmailing Danny and Tucker during the Gorilla episode.
>>137403557>And again, a scale of total annihilation of life that Aku could never hope to achieve. Why do you continue to insist on this completely faulty line of thinking? are you autistic? a woman? No lives are lost, the timeline is restored to it's proper course, meaning everyone whose life was part of the original timeline will live as they did, except without Aku's threat looming over, and those who don't will be replaced by new life.>>137403594Aku is in direct opposition to nature and it's laws, so much so that his magic makes Jack unable to age, which is the natural cycle for living beings. He might be a primordial force, but he is not a force of nature.
>>137404021>No lives are lostOh, you're retarded, I'm just gonna stop replying to you now. Feel free to reply with whatever cope you have about how erasing countless people is not a loss of life even though we watch Ashi fall over and fade away right in front of Jack.
>>137380660"ok to her" is supposed to be "other", i assume
>>137403557>and struggle for the hope of a brighter futureWas there even any hope? There's gonna be massive power vacuums in Aku's territories without him around. Things could just get worse instead better. At that point, just stopping Aku in the present wouldn't do. There will be tons of future wars and infighting waged due no main leadership keeping them all together.At that point, the innocent lives in the bad future are clearly fucked regardless of what happens, and aren't worth saving over the potential good future where there are nowhere near as many causalities and higher standards of living.
>>137404091She fades because she is tied to Aku, this is literally explained in the show anon holy shit. But I guess you not having paid attention to the show explains some things. Even then, it's baffling that you're somehow puzzled by a single linear timeline time travel plot, it's pretty much the same as Back to the Future, are Marty and Doc genocidal psychos in your head? I didn't mention this before because I thought you were smart enough to have realized but apparently you're genuinely stupid: Jack has no choice in the matter. Defeating Aku means undoing his magic, and undoing his magic means fixing the timeline. It's linear, you cannot leave the future as it is and kill Aku, because he's the cause of said future.
>>137387528This episode absolutely fucked my self-esteem up irreparably as a kid, honestly its something I still think of now.
>>137399705Regular show was based for this one.
>>137399943Should've happened.
>Eagle Twins are secretly bad guys abusing their good image and are total cunts>In the end they frame Manny for everything and get away with it while his dad even implicitly believes he's innocent>They gleefully continue doing crime as Manny is hopitalized and in jailMan fuck that episode, and worst of all, I'm probably the only one who remembers it.
>>137380181>>137390228>>137400166I really hate that foster’s is such a triggering show nowadays, I still really enjoyed it more than not. but it sucks 4ish episodes have made it impossible to talk about anything besides wanting to fuck Frankie. Especially for a fairly episodic comedy that doesn’t even reference those episodes in any form after that. Nobody acts like the lady Gaga episodes of the simpsons was so bad it retroactively ruins the classic seasons
>>137406230>fuck FrankieThere, he said it, so, is this now a let's share hot Frankie porn thread yet?
>>137383932>t one parody of the Twilight Zone.I mean, have you seen how those episodes end?
>>137405951The thumbnail looks like porn
>>137396110No one was erased you minge, the aliens brought to Earth by Aku just stayed on their planets and the death machine robots are better to not exist
>>137399511Thank you for actually getting it
>>137383976I get why people hate this one but to be real for a second? Arnold wasn’t completely innocent here.>what’s so funny Arnold>oh it was something iggy was wearingThat said the writers having a giant news crew eagerly filming a child in clear embarrassment for live tv (and probably YouTube one day) is fucked up. Even bloo didn’t do that to Mac in >>137380181
>>137399705The only episode that broke this trope is the KND episode with numbuh 5 and the mystical 4th flavor and the delightful children ruining it with "jimmies"
>>137406422What about Rainbow Dash trying to drink some cider?
>>137406446>Look up Rainbow Dash and cider>Inflation
>>137406488Now i remember the Spike episode with the similar plot, he tries to make himself a pie with gems, but he keeps snacking on them.
>>137396425iirc the crew hated working on this and wanted to be on SpongeBob, and you can kind of tell by how relentlessly miserable the tone of the show is 90% of the time with almost every character fucking hating catdog’s guts
>>137406544This reminds me the writers hated Finn from Adventure time.
>>137380075>No jock cum soaked musky underwear to suckWhy live?
>>137387471You unironically didn't get it
>>137380075Episodes or series where the gang or a character get a shit load of money and one of em ends up giving it away it to something stupid or losing it in some contrived manner to return to status quo. Examples include Rugrats with Chuckies dad going retard after he got rich, and The Boondocks when Jasmine gave away all of their money to some bullshit charity at the end. Also I know its cheating as it was relatively recent and /a/ via Toonami but I really want to mention it...Assassination Classroom's ending when the class give all the money back to the government
>>137380181is foster’s the anti-sonic the hedgehog where it actively repels autists instead of attracting them?? either clinically diagnosed or general internet weirdos. if so thank god it’s one thing to not to like it but the amount of people that get fuckmad over it recently is interesting
Ed Edd and Eddy when they made the cardboard city>Make a genuinely cool thing>Everyone actually enjoying it except Johnny>Plank goes off the rails and Johnny throws a bitch fit, attacks Eddy and swipes the money jar>Drops earned money down to everyone because Plank / Johnny being a fucking nutcase>Cardboard city gets destroyed>Johnny all ha ha hee hees at the end while the Eds get screwedThey should have beaten the fucking shit out of him. Glad that little shit gets btfo in the series finale.
>>137399308The end of the episode involves his red nose being removed, exposing he has an elephant trunk, indicating he was actually an imaginary friend just incredibly humanesque
>>137399373TikTok has a fairly healthy DP fanbase I heard.
>>137403261Millions of people of all ages were unhappy that day. Ironically, it was the perfect ending for SVTFOE considering they admitted they tried copying elements of GoT into SVTFOE
>>137399373>>137406960I feel like anything with a dark aesthetic that happens to be aimed at kids or general audiences is guaranteed to have a crazy fanbase
>>137400137I get that this image is meant to provoke some sense of nostalgia but it just makes me feel a sense of dread. Like, these images (and especially the ones for le 90s kids) make me even more happy I live in 2023 and not 2003.
>>137382794I dislike it too but it's not surprising.In these kind of endings, to me it's sort of a "we don't want to make the kids cry" sort of situation, so the adult ending is that Stan truly sacrificed himself to save his family, the kiddy ending is that "Actually he was fine all along!".It is what it is.
>>137394791basically any Krusty Krab episode can be connected to capitalism in some way. the crane episode definitely
>Writes a song about her best friend getting his ass kicked>Song reveals he wears goofy underwear>Song becomes a hit and increases his humiliation with thousands of listeners>Doesn't have to publicly announce the color of her panties as an apology
>>137406749Funny how Steven Universe handled it perfectly
>>137399028>sprinkle of passive aggressive Gen X angsti got that from the Sam and Danny "le puberty" jokes which i cringed at even when I was 12. nobody at age 14 talked about puberty like that, even if we were referencing it in some capacity.
>>137399073I'm inclined to say Savino because, talking about Hartman, at least FOP and Danny Phantom were good for like 3 episodesSavino ruined Dexter and PPG and got away with it
>>137405951Was it an allegory for US-Mexico relations?
>It's good to know that my family actually accepts the fact I'm a heroic ghost fighter because I constantly have to make excuses for why I'm never around and they keep trying to kill me whenever we run into eachother....but I'm going to erase that moment from reality because the writers think that cheap conflict is more worthwhile than logic.>>137398876Because it's pretty obvious that ghosts were a gimmick for Butch's boiler plate teen hero show. It's pretty clear Butch had no interest in exploring ghosts as ghost most the time beyond the occasional backstory. They treat them as aliens more often than not, rather than ghosts. Like it's weird that only one pretty scarcely used villain was actually a mystic who manipulated ghosts, like a guy like that seems like a good recurring villain but he shows up twice.I was gonna say maybe Ben10 stopped them from making their own show about a boy who gets alien dna in his veins with his parent's basement stargate but it came out first so I guess Butch just thought "Ghosts, sure">>137407201They were still Mexican and themed after the Mexican Eagle. If you want to force an allegory it'd probably be more LEGITIMATE BUSINESSMAN/POLITICIANS who are just the cartelis but they work out of an office building.
>>137406749>spoilerhonestly, i forgot that happened, mostly since i was more focused on how funny it was that Kaede doesn't get the ending she wanted with Nagisa
>>137407244>If you want to force an allegory it'd probably be more LEGITIMATE BUSINESSMAN/POLITICIANS who are just the cartelis but they work out of an office building.It still would make sense considering Jorge based the grandfather on his grandfather who was in the military in the 1960s, which he saw as akin to evil. I'm sure he has a lot of thoughts on the Mexican powerbrokers that he doesn't talk about considering he probably doesn't want to piss people off too much.
>>137406888Most episodes could boil down to that premise.>The Eds decide they want to do something fun or ingenius>Something bad happens>The cul de sac kids are skeptic or think too little of the eds to let them off the hook>Sarah, Kevin, Jimmy, or whoever barges in and ruins their day for the sake of… Clout? Revenge? Sometimes they’re just rude.There’s Friendship Day, the Cardboard City, their “attempt” at a record around the world (which was more like a theater act, but Kevin was still a prick), the spa, Eddy’s middle name, Sarah being a literal spoiled princess, the list goes on.>>137380075Now I wasn’t a kid when it started airing, but Adventure Time in general was a shitastic show with endings that were inconclusive/lacked resolution (boxcats, businessmen, the train whodunnit, goliad, etc), poorly concluded with no proper buildup or climax (Finn’s new arm from the bee, anything involving Simon, Fangs, the Lich, jake’s original form), or routed for the wrong person (Bonnibel being a tyrannical sociopath, Jake’s apathy and refusal to do anything, Bonnibel again).
>>137380075I honestly have mixed feelings on this show, even did as a kid. I didn't like Mandy the most and felt like she was too meanspirited, but at the same time I just didn't like Billy that much either.I think I'm just not that into slapstick. Or maybe it was just not executed as well in this episode.Anyways, I tried watching a couple seasons recently as an adult and my opinion hasn't changed much from as a kid. I see Mandy in a somewhat better light, but that's about it. They still had a stronger friendship than Mordecai and Rigby.Either way, Grim was the best character.Grim > Billy > Mandy.
>>137407428This post. Mandy was a PoS who usually got things her way even if it shouldn’t work that way. The rules bent in her favor and made many episodes feel boring when the plot concludes with Mandy on top & Billy and/or Grim on the bottom. She put herself above Death itself. That’s how entitled to the world she felt.
>>137380755why did you remind me
>>137407449I feel strange cause I remember a lot of people genuinely liking her character the most out of the three. She has the most fanfiction and fanart, with Grim in dead last in both departments.I don't know. I assume a lot of boys had a crush on her while a lot of girls related to her? Neither applied to me. Mandy works best a suspension of disbelief-type character, where she still has a realistic stake in the situation she's in. There is a comedic aspect to a little girl being smart and bossy, but when you expect it already, it becomes stale.I can't say I hate her or Billy, they both definitely have their moments, but they both also get stale pretty quickly. I do like them still somewhat.That being said, Grim is a much better character than both of them.
>>137407485It doesn’t help Mandy was Atoms’ favorite character and the one the most related to him; makes her feel more like some wish fulfillment than an actual character with flaws or a personality that’s a little more than a permanent Period.
>>137407512Really? He wrote about Billy the most.Did Atoms say that Mandy was his favorite on social media? He said that He based Billy off of his inner world while Mandy represented how people saw him as a kid or something.Also, I wouldn't call Mandy "wish fulfillment" imo. Her parents wanted nothing to do with her and mistake her for a boy, Grim dislikes her more than Billy, and she doesn't really have any friends besides Billy.
Even as a kid I hated Dimwit Dexter. Despite even back then knowing that Dexter was episodic and there wasn't really any continuity, the idea of the fallout Dexter would endure from that episode was harsh even in a show that routinely screwed him over. He'd always be known as the weird kid that kissed a duck's ass while in his underwear.But the big stinker is Dee Dee. Its the episode that convinced me that shes actually actively malicious and the whole "what does this button do" schtick is an act. She could tell right away something was off with Dexter and instead of bringing him back into the house before he could humiliate himself further, she instead laughed along with the other kids and egged him into doing more retarded shit.
>>137407552I don’t know how cited Channel Fred is with their facts, but I recall them stating a few in a video about Billy Mandy about how Maxwell Atoms’ favorite character was Mandy, and how her frown was based on how Max was called “the boy who never smiled” or something like that. I don’t know if you would call that video good enough, but it gets cogs in my head grinding when these few details are put together.
>>137407593I really doubt the "favorite" part is true, but he did confirm on his tumblr that her frown was based upon that. But he never said anything about having a favorite.His profile picture on tumblr is Grim and his background picture is Billy, so if Mandy's his favorite, he's not making it known.Even then, I don't know why he would give the least focused episodes on Mandy if she was his favorite. There are more Billy centric episodes than Grim or Mandy ones combined.Anyways, Billy and Mandy's relationship is better in theory to me. The show prioritized slapstick to the point that even as a kid it wasn't really that fun watching them visibly not like each other. It can be funny and it is, but as a kid it caused me to feel detached from the characters.
>>137385291>the original authors didn't intend for this to be some sexual thingdon't be so sure about things like this, I used to think like that until I finally understood that "the author's barely disguised fetish" isn't just a funny joke
>>137380075I don't know why but this ending made me sad. Like Morty's been on a lot of traumatizing missions but seeing him get punched in the eye just feels ugly to see.
>>137407117I hate that they can't meaningfully write a gay male character well. I wish dykes would shut up about this show
This episode filled me with so much hate for an entire week. *schedules another therapy appointment*
>>137380075Wish he came back or had a freaking spin off.
>>137397374Fuck the Bendy episode, this one pissed me off so bad that I can remember the premiere perfectly!
>>137397374>>137380181I only watched a few episodes of this show as a kid but they really did not like Mac
>>137406422They're called Jimmies you fucking hick!>>137406446Dash is a cunt, so it's all good
>>137407408To be perfectly fair, the Spa was in Johnny's house.
>>137407896I always found it interesting how that episode had the Eds at their worst, destroying a kid's house, even if accidentally yet it's one of the few episodes where the Eds unequivocally win in the end.
>>137406887>recentlyFoster's got a reputation for being strewn with misery porn dating back to the times when Mr Enter wasn't around. Comedic sociopathy, even to a murderous degree, is my favourite kind of comedy and yet I still consider FHFIF to be unpalatable due to how Craig was oblivious to Bloo being an asshole in that he continued to shill him as a dream playmate for his self-insert.
>>137406887I guess so but the only type of people that still care (i.e : rant) about it nowadays are either weirdo manchildren on the spectrum or this board in particular.There’s no such thing as a Foster’s fanbase on social media, and excepted for Frankie, it seems normies have memory-holed its existence just like for Camp Lazlo or Squirrel Boy (probably because of the lack of merch).I’d also argue the way everyone got treated probably hit too close to home for a lot of socially-stunned kids. The fact that Mac’s father was absent throughout the show and never even mentioned once by anyone reminded me of my upbringing...not that he was dead or divorced or anything, but he was distant for most of my childhood.
>>137408307Rather, the whole show beyond S1 felt like bait and switch kind of deal. If Bloo were to be a sociopath since the beginning, no one would have given a damn about him being an asshole.
why cheese?
>>137408180
>>137408565Nah. Bendy is based for trolling Lauren Faust IRL. Besides, neither she nor Craig believes him to be wholesome, unlike Bloo: >>137408180
>>137408619
>>137408180>Craig was oblivious to Bloo being an asshole in that he continued to shill him as a dream playmate for his self-insert.If Bloo is really meant to be Craig's "dream playmate," maybe you could psychoanalyze Craig as being extremely self-hating and thinking that sort of abuse is all he deserves, even from an ideal friend in a self-insert fantasy. It's not the first of his works to treat the protagonists in a bizarrely dark way either, just look at the Powerpuff Girls movie.
>>137408709Does Craig have any siblings? I'd say that part of the issue with his writing lies with the fact that his idea of relationship between sisters or brothers is a second-hand guess - like how Terrence is a psychopath whose only idea of 'fun' is to beat the shit out of his younger brother. As for Bloo vs Mac, I remember years ago that Craig revealed how Bloo is basically him until his father died and Mac is him from that point onward. As such, both characters aren't based on relationship of any kind, making it harder for Craig to see any faults with their actual interaction.
>>137394949>2 sandwichesBut seriously what would have happened to him afterwards?
>>137406230Same, cause aside from the really shit episodes, fosters is great
>Wouldn't it be funny if a child was bullied to death over a sports game?All kinds of fucked up shit happens in rural small towns in America.
>>137409252Springfield delenda est.
>>137409252I hated the one where Lisa gets a restraining order, but this one is a close second
>>137407592This episode made me so uncomfortable when I first saw it, and I think it made me uncomfortable on later rewatches especially the goldfish in his underwear.He literally shook his ass while smothering a goldfish to death with his balls as it flopped helplessly.
>>137384398My biggest problem is that the entire """""problem""""" changes when it's a different character than Stan giving Dipper the exact same advice but communicated without the greasy con man persona. Imagine if he'd asked Wendy the exact same question.>"Wendy how do I talk to girls?">"Oh easy, dude. Like this."And then Wendy would go induce a bi-panic in the nearest Midwestern tourist teenage girl traveling with her family by being charming and flattering.
>>137407685At least they wrote lesbians well>catra is clingy and abusiveAlso kyle is """bi"""
>>137404457>She fades because she is tied to Aku, this is literally explained in the show anon holy shitHer final words are literally "without Aku I WOULD never HAVE existed", it's blatantly a "you killed my father before I was born" thing, you fucking fool. You are moron who can't even understand what the show is telling you.I have not watched Back to the Future, but as far as I'm aware, they change the present, don't they? It's not really the same situation because people who DID already exist no longer do, also isn't the main character racing against the clock to not be erased himself? Erasing all those people is fucked, but it's a lose-lose situation on that end.>>137404341>aren't worth savingYou are a maniac who does not actually value life, Jack himself gave up going to the past to save people that were in immediate danger. What you're saying literally goes against how the original seasons of the show portray a life's worth and Jack's morality.>>137406316>the aliens brought to Earth by Aku just stayed on their planetsSo the people who were born because of Aku dicking around with aliens no longer exist, meaning they were erased.Holy shit they made an ending so bad people have to cope and ignore the way time travel is actually treated in the show to pretend it's good. Ashi is erased because her dad was killed before she was born, but people somehow think all those born directly or indirectly because of Aku's actions will still exist.Really, being erased is even worse than death, since Samurai Jack seems to have some sort of afterlife, being erased means you don't even get that, you're just gone.
>>137409969>Holy shit they made an ending so bad people have to cope and ignore the way time travel is actually treated in the show to pretend it's good.Not to mention that the final fight already ignores how the original, pre-time warp fight went: >Pre time travel >Aku spreads himself over Jack's sword, hoping that he plunges it into the ground like his father originally did and thus allowed him to return after his first defeat >Instead, Jack shoos Aku from his sword and is ready to finish off Aku who is locked in his form due to exhaustion >Return from the future >Virtually a second from being sent off in the original series, which should allow Jack to finish Aku with the latter having no more power or aces up his sleeve >NAH! >Le epic fight ensues, ending in Aku covering Jack's sword once more >Jack thrusts sword into the ground, exactly like his father did so many years ago >Only THIS time doing so kills off Aku permanently, for some reason I got burned on this hype train
>>137406422He may have needed to destroy all of jersey, but my man coop got a whole damn slushie machine
>>137407428My biggest issue with Billy and Mandy was that the main trio never actually became close friends with each other. They're just 3 people who are forced to tolerate each other for a superficial reason and never grow beyond that, instead their relationship grew worse. It especially became pretty noticeable in the last seasons, with Billy and Mandy literally admitting Grim is useless to them with his scythe or powers in the movie, and later Grim saying he hates them and makes it clear he wants nothing to do with them. Mandy sees Grim as nothing more than as slave, and while Billy actually treats Grim like a friend at times, he'd treat him like a slave like just like her when the plot demands it. Grim, if given the opportunity would get rid of them with no hesitation; making the pic related moment from "Fiend is like Friend Without the 'R'' just seem out of place instead of heartwarming. As a result, their later interactions near the end became rather cynical instead of humorous. You could tell more often or not with the increased flanderization in the last season.
>>137407675Fuck off Craig, you were right the first time, it WAS funny
>>137407748>not posting the season 5 finale instead
>>137410149>fightdid we watch the same show? lol aku got jobbed out near instantly
>>137403064Based.
>>137410494>near instantlyWhack-a-mole with Aku's pieces took a moment, anon.
>>137408307>probably because of the lack of merchHot topic had a shit ton of foster’s merch? I remember seeing kids and even teens and adults with it in the day. It wasn’t SpongeBob huge or anything but it was there.Plus people remember seem to remember wilt, cheese, hot in Topeka to name a few things CL and SB 100% agreed
>>137408180>Craig was oblivious to Bloo being an assholeI mean he and others wrote and directed endings to stories where bloo fucks around and finds out? The water park and squeaky elephant episodes off the top of my head. That doesn’t seem oblivious. I do understand that like, the Europe and surprise party episodes throw some doubt on the malicious part. and I say that as someone who loves the show. I just wish we can have a decent thread for it one day
>>137380755still sore about this one - bitch literally breaks a cease fire with an attempted assassination, gets caught, and then has the gall to get all righteous and uppity when Kuvira is taken into custody saying how she’ll pay for her ‘monstrous crimes’ or whatever.
I hated the ending of Adventure Time. Fin and Jake waste their lives helping out Marceline and Princess Bubblegum. But no, they just needed to end the show with a lesbian romance that was not called for. Marceline and PB barely interracted in the show, let alone was there any serious undertones for them liking eachother. but then instead of it being a show through the eyes of Finn. we now have to live out a fantasy of the LGBT agenda. its a discouraging message to say the least. be a good man. help those around you. but in the end you are worthless and they will not love you. I always knew as a child that there was something off about this show. on paper it seems like such a good show. and i did find it 6/10 entertaining. but i would rather find myself wanting to watch regular show. at least when they came out and say "this show was made by faggots, that why its so off putting". it came full circle and all made sense.
>>137399285How about no, psycho
>>137411291The hypocrisy was astounding. She of all characters getting to bitch about "paying for crimes". It just made it more infuriating that Bataar Jr. basically got off with a slap on the wrist when it could have made a good moment of Suyin having to suffer some consequences as a callback to her shit in the past.
>>137387471I don’t think that was ever meant to be the finale
>>137411315>I hated the ending of Adventure TimeI loved it, because it made Steven Universe look like an absolute Chad by stark contrast alone.
>>137410384Episodic television means the status quo is maintained, and conflict/animosity between main characters is funnier.
>>137400137>that Young Justice is what people actually wantI think you're a dude barely 18 pretending to be 25-30, especially with that nostalgia bait pic. YJ came out 2.5 years before TTGO, and was cancelled after TTGO season 1. The show makes a comeback that pretty much divides fans because of>Fiction Politics as a metaphor for real world politics>Queer Subplot>Animation budget drop/Character Design Changes>Multiple Villains Having A Backup Plan to laughable Ad NauseumYJ was the Golden Goose of 2012 era animation, but it's 2019 return is a dip in quality. So the idea that Young Justice, a show where the TT cast appears as multiple characters by throughout the entire show run, is the reason why the discourse died down is a stupid reach. I'm gonna say the smugness died down because TTGO is now the norm, surpassing the episode count of TT2K3 and time frame. I predict by 2033, TTGO will be treated like how Johnny Test is seen now, overplayed at it's peak popularity but innoffensive outside of nostalgia spergs and people trying to look cool
>>137387528If Jorgen revealed he made the whole thing up to test Timmy it would be okay, since I think he was trying to instill the value of selflessness.
>>137387556The whole concept of framing the Eds was flawed. They're already outcasts and hated. If Jimmy had just let it slide the Eds would have eventually failed another scam and be punished anyway.
>>137397374Something that always bothered me is how eurotrish after this dissapears until the destination imagination movie where is revealed that her life has been really miserable
>>137387556It was stupid but at the very least Eddy had it coming so it isn't as bad as the cardboard city episode where Johnny threw a schizo fit and fucked the Eds over when they actually delivered on something people liked
>>137412268>where is revealed that her life has been really miserableNah - entire house suffered and went to shit without Frankie around to tard wrangle everyone. Which by itself is another issue entirely - in the pilot, and a couple of S1 episodes, Wilt was something of a resident co-caretaker that Frankie could rely on, but this depiction faded away quickly leaving behind yet another mouth to feed with no way to take care for himself. In the grand scheme of things this character decay feels like a major contributing factor to FHFIF being shit - even sociopathic comedy requires well-rounded characters to actually work and one dimensional props just won't do.
>>137411827>and conflict/animosity between main characters is funnier.Problem is, now any genuine emotional moment you try to have between the characters end up falling flat since they've never shown they'd actually cared for one another, since showing only bitterness and spite for a majority of their screentime that feels more real than the positive moment you're trying to set up since that part was more consistently shown. There's clearly a limit to how much animosity main characters should show to others, otherwise they end up coming off as pricks.
So can most people, (not just here) agree that Foster's was Craig worst work?
>>137412475I'm torn on the matter. On one hand, it felt like an annoying waste of potential. On the other, it was Craig's largest piece of work to date. I'd say "yes", but mostly because everything he had made before and since was just more enjoyable. Hopefully FHFIF's reboot as cartoon series for smaller children will fare much better, especially given how it is confirmed that the original main cast is NOT going to appear as major characters again.
>>137409252>inb4 "but they got bart to repeat the game to make bart feel better"that's a fucking lie and you all know it, the ONLY reason they got bart to repeat the game was so they could no longer have a reason to turn him into a fucking laughing stock.also anyone posting horse show >>>/mlp/ is down the hall and to the left>>137411315literally my only problem with this is that Princess Bubblegum has any sort of happy ending.
imo foster's would have been better as comedic yet still has stakes in the plot like the pilot, duchess ala yzma would have served as a better antagonistic force than most things going wrong bc of blooshe's been stuck for years on end there so i think she could have been the villain the show needed with the competence yet comedic traits she had in the pliot, like we are show can control extremely dangerous IFsits weird given craig can write good villains like mojo jojo and lord dominator but the stakes were pushed aside
>>137412475Weakest, maybe (haven’t seen wander or kid cosmic but I know the former was/is well Liked) but for Craig that’s like a 7/10. For me that’s still pretty good. I feel like the internet treats anything that’s around a 7 or even 6 like irredeemable trash
>>137410384A lot of people usually justify this form of writing with "it's funnier", but the thing is sacrificing character for comedy is a double edged sword.Again, Billy being annoying or Mandy being evil can be funny, but if it's all they are, it's not so much. Spongebob was able to balance heart and comedy just fine. While B&M has more in common with Ren and Stimpy, the show is a bit more advanced in it's ways, so the sacrifice works.Even as a kid I thought things like this.Billy could have worked best as a gir-like character that's more of the innocent sidekick to Mandy.Also picrel, there was potential for a more unique dynamic between Billy and Grim. Maybe something like Grim trying to convince Billy to end the deal, while Mandy tries to convince Billy to not listen to him. Or just a general bro dynamic. Billy and Grim's interactions were...cute? in season 1.
>>137381945>is very much vengeful towards his troubled and abusive Terrence, resorts to actual physical violence against himAnd? Terrence is a cunt so its justified
>>137409561>Also kyle is """bi"""They can't even write gay men without trying to self insert and wanting to fuck them.I hate women so much it's unreal. Women should never be allowed to write anything gay.The only gay male characters we get are the two dads who appear once, a twink that everyone hates for no reason and a lizard.>catra is clingy and abusivecatra is stevenson's self insert lmao. literally even admitted itHMOMA is a sacred genre and dyke hands may not touch it
>>137406446I disliked that too>le funnay pinkie gets lots because...she's so crazy>fuck you dash no cider for youok
considering that "as a kid" doesn't mean i have to stand by it as an adult. i'd have to go with the Spliced! series finale "Poosh and the quest for the blargy parble"for some reason i expected the funny grossout slapstick show to start worldbuilding over what's essentially a reference to the Marsellus Wallace briefcase from Pulp Fiction. sooner or later i realized how retarded i looked taking something like that so god-damn seriously and instead i got mad over the show being screwed from a second season.P.S. horseshowposting is strictly against Global Rule 15. on that note, all the "fufill your civic duty, /co/mrades" retards are noticebly silent about this.
>Doug’s old friend moves to his hometown.>Old friend is obnoxious.>Everyone keeps blaming Doug for his old friends behavior.>Doug finally calls out his old friend when shit gets bad.>Old friend starts feeling guilty.>Episode shits on Doug for calling out his friend and now he has to apologize to him instead of it being the other way around.
This episode absolutely made no sense at all.The episode shits on Dexter for being short, making him want to become bigger than everyone.And somehow bends reality to make himself bigger while everyone short.And now it’s cool to be short.
>>137380755korra in general,season 1 was the worst tough
>>137389861nah,i like the brad jenny ship a lot better,fuck sheldon
>>137399762The show's creator was planning for them to be endgame
>>137415283As a kid I thought the joke was that Dexter's actually a loser no matter what, as the other short kid got a bunch more attention as everyone became short as well because he had charisma and charm compared to Dexter
>>137387471Episode on its own was kino though, having it as a series finale just made things ambiguous and initially left you wondering what they were going for
>>137385641Pretty sure there's worse endings in this show.
Not even the ending just the whole episode in general. People give more a shit about some strip mall rather their fucking houses being washed away. Also the guy watching the dam that abandons his post gets away scott free despite he has a literal job to do.
>>137411425Steven is selling his ass to grown men to make money.
>>137416753What do you...What do you mean by that?
>>137380075How has this not been posted yet?At least SpongeBob and Patrick were punished too. If they did this in Season 6 or later, they probably would’ve been rewarded for their idiocy.
>>137412475on the whole? sureBut the first two seasons by themselves are some of his best imo. The only blemish is bendy
>>137416906security system TAKES CONTROL OF SQUIDWARD’S HOUSEAAAAAAAAHHHFUCK THIS EPISODE
>>137406749I was legit mad when Lisa rejected Mr. Burns' check and the result gave Homer a heart attack.
>>137407117I get that Kyle was written to be everyone’s punching bag. But it still annoyed me that even someone as friendly as Scorpia would have no qualms throwing him under the bus.
>>137417058I FELT SO BAD FOR HIMfuck pearl and her big assfuck fagtrick
>>137407669To be fair, it was entirely his fault
>>137416742fuck that guy. Hank even calls him out on it and everyone just ignores it.
>>137417847It wouldn't be so bad if he was lazy or whiny, but no.
Why the fuck couldn't Double D just let Eddy be Carl?
Was I supposed to see what a bad person Llyod was for sticking up for himself against a mean girl who kept insulting him all night?
>>137390617Morty should have used the morphizer to just give Ethan a pair of tits; have the whole "my brother 'made me a girl'" link to this. Would have been funnier and darker than this heap of visually cluttered nothing the episode went with.
>>137399705>Ben Grimm's never getting that sandwich, even after 60 years.
>>137387855Rocko's modern life was just vore fetish non-stop i hated that shit so many fucking nightmares.
>>137380755damn what a milf
>>137385641Benson should have just let them buy them but hold on to them until they actually finish their work.Eating them just because they didn't finishing putting some hologram thing away was a dick move.They already paid for the food
>>137380075been a while since i watch this so i don't 100% remember what happened, but if i recall it was something like>the world's about to end so the gang have to reset time or some shit>doing so will mean they never met or become friends>do it anyway>they all get perfect lives when time resets but don't know each other>out of the blue some professor contacts them, tells them he studies alternative realities, tells them about how they saved the world, and then offers them a job travelling around the world solving mysteries
>>137394949what rule did benson break?
Dropped the show after this shitfest>kidnaps his sister>kidnaps a bunch of other metakids to be sold into slavery>kills his parents>stills the throne>after getting his arse kicked threatens beyond and tells him he's never gonna stop messing with him>brion understandably murders him>all his friends get mad at him and immediately see him as a villainbunch of self righteous twats
>>137387556i think that's the point. sometimes you get screwed in life. shouldn't have betrayed the people's goodwill over the years if you don't want this to happen to you.>>137388433i think they should've been more subtle about it. instead of lifting the eds up and cheering they should've offered a hand to get them off their feet and unenthusiastically walked backed as a group to kevin's house for jaw breakers.
>>137419710He technically didn't do it on his own will; completely. He was given a psychic push in the right direction by a Light ally. If it weren't for that, he probably wouldn't have killed him. Funny, the bad guy unironically made him do the right thing.
>>137411422The creators openly said it was and if they got another season they wouldn't have ended it like that
>>137419710While I agree, he should've been killed, just not a public execution. Not a good look for him since he used his meta powers to do it, and could've been used against him later on. Should've just done it out back after everything was taken care of.
>>137416742sometimes bill needs a good smack. dale too.
>>137419065Because he'd have to keep that act for the rest of his school life? He can't keep up the disguise forever; even if Edd didn't tell, the other kids would've figured it out eventually on their own.
>>137419902doesn't change the fact that his friends turned their back on him literally 2 seconds after he did it, instead of being like 'hey, you probably shouldn't have done that but i get it'.
>>137419641To be fair Harlon Ellison was already established in the series and helped them a bit, also they were the only ones who remembered their pasts so it's not like they weren't actually friends. If anything the fucked up part is how it seems like to all their friends and family like they gave up their bright futures to be hobos chasing down freaks for no real reason.>>137419125Yeah that's definitely an issue of them writing out the moral before they made the rest of the episode since Cindy's left head was a straight piece of shit, it it was just Lloyd didn't like her because she was an ugly blemish on her dream girl despite being nice then it'd be one thing but Lloyd was totally in the right. Same with the episode where he holds his sister's doll hostage so she stops terrorizing him and everyone is like "you went too far Lloyd" but his sister was literally trying to kill him earlier in the episode. And the episode where he finds out his mom's new boyfriend is secretly a horrible reptilian wearing a mask that looks like his species and he outs him thinking he's evil but his mom always knew and understood because people are dicks to his species because they look so sinister. But then he puts the mask back on despite everyone knowing and feeling bad that they ganged up on an innocent guy. It really spits in the face of the whole "don't judge people by looks alone" message if he recedes back into the farce of being whit...I Neblonian.
>>137416821Exactly what I said.
>>137419641They got the Stone Ocean ending
>>137406521This was hilarious
>>137416821I think he's referring to Season 6, episode 4. The plot is Steven having to enter a strip club with the gems to pay for the damage they did to the city after the diamond fight.
>>137396889>the comic's version of the ending.There was a comic that covered an ending? When did that happen?
>>137419641>doing so will mean they never met or become friends>>137419957>If anything the fucked up part is how it seems like to all their friends and family like they gave up their bright futures to be hobos chasing down freaks for no real reason.Reminder, Daphne's sister's lost their successful careers/lives after the reset and this is completely glossed over to make Daphne look better to her parents which is seen as a good thing, even though her parent's never actually became better as people, they got the bar lowered so much that Daphne is their star child now. And how many people's lives got ruined or worse because of the reset? The show never gave any focus to that idea, it mostly showed the positives of the universal reset.
>>137418998Yeah, it’s not like he was just dicking around. Even though he failed the guy still tried his best. Yet he was always the one that got shit on even though some of the others failed as much as he did.
>>137419647He ate two burgers. It's only one burger per person (for health safety reasons). Even Pops could barely handle the burger.
>>137416753No.
>>137385641I guess I was too old for Regular Show, because never at any point did I see Mordechai and Rigby as endearing because they were slackers. They brought the shit on themselves, since them trying to sneak away to buy the burgers wasted more time than if they just finished their fucking work, and the holograms they used to pull it off backstabbed them. Benson was right to teach those fuckers a lesson.
>>137419438>show endings that gave someone a fetish
The episode where Flame Princess dumps Finn.
>>137421452They really hated him and jake. They were barely in the show later on.
>>137412475You know the fact that I remember more about PPG, Wander and Kind Cosmic that Foster is a testament to how forgettable that show is, I only seem to remember the episodes that pissed me off an some jokes here and there.
>>137412453which is weird seeing as Wilt being helpful and having trouble putting himself first is kind of a recurring thing, but at the same time the house would crumble without Franky despite the whole foster home being older that her
>>137381560This. Actively agree. If he matured, people would accept him. But he choose to stay bitter. All just to keep the status quoIf the writers don't play ball right, why should we care?
>>137421452I’m still irritated that they made Finn torpedo his relationship essentially over wet dreams, man.
>>137407675Took a long time for this to be posted.
>>137399046>Wanting to see girls your own age naked makes you an assholeA woman would do the exact same shit, I'm sure. Besides it's not like they know he did it. He didn't ghost rape them. Victimless crime, if you ask me.
>>137415247Really? I only vaguely remember this but did they really get made at Doug after he did what they wanted and maxed his obnoxious friend leave? Fucking make up your mind.
>>137422588That one was the result of execs forcing such resolution upon Craig. Then again, it might as well be his cope when put under fire for shitty writing within his team.
>>137415283I don't really remember a single Savino episode, thank God.
>>137415283 Why is that gnome/elf pretending to be a child?
g
Not as a kid, but in my late teens Gravity Falls was such a total piece of shit after the season 2 midseason finale. Everything after that was so offensively bad or nonsensical it makes me mad to this day and I haven't given American animation any real attention since.Wakfu and older/foreign animation is basically the only reason I even use /co/ anymore partially because of Gravity Falls and partially because of the virtue signaling retardation the industry gets dragged down by.
>>137420155>>137419641I mean, they saved the world. Sorry a few gingers lost out on being fighter pilots and shit, I guess. At least they're not birdthulhu's lunch.
>>137425699>Everything after that was so offensively bad or nonsensical it makes me mad to this dayCare to elaborate? I've tried to watch Gravity Falls, but it failed to grab my attention and as such I stuck to Regular Show and Gumball for the remainder of GF's run.
>>137399056Same with the episode where Dexter stretches himself to get on a rollercoaster, episode ends with him getting hit by the tunnel. And this is one of the episodes where he ISN'T being a dick.
>>137426029>Sorry a few gingers lost out on being fighter pilots and shitYou're ignoring the bigger picture here. This hints that besides Daphne's sisters, many other people's lives could've been made worse (or they probably don't exist at all now) by this cosmic retcon, yet it's played as a side gag for some reason. It ruins the happy ending the last episode sets up and just has you wondering the full extent of the changes that happened.
>>137403228No, anon. That "fact" was added to the wiki by the same guy who added the "fact" that the pigeon man was supposed to commit suicide in the first draft of the episode (despite an interview with the creator from 1998 confirming that "pigeons carry a man into the sunset" was the initial idea the rest of the episode was written around).The reality is that Iggy never had a major before OR after that episode. It wasn't because the episode was unpopular, which it wasn't as far as anyone knows, but because the plot wouldn't work if they used one of Arnold's friends. So they used a random nobody like Iggy.
>>137399981Season 2 finale was good.But Toffee dying made a door open for the series to do Season 3 about how the queendom was bad and hated interspecies sex.So is the ending that made me mad
I suppose it’s his fault for pulling that lever and sneaking in? But she’s a bitch in general. I go back and forth on this one.
>>137380181>Wilt misses his basketball game cause he can’t say no>Frankie misses her concert when she tries to expose Goofball who definitely seemed like a human and must clean the whole house Foster’s loves it abuse, I don’t get it. But at least all the characters get it at some point. There’s not just one single buttmonkey at least.
>>137426556If I remember this episode, Dexter kept spying on her throughout her efforts to build a tree house and host a party there, under suspicion that it all is an elaborate ploy arranged against him. He was right, because indeed it was all a trap set up just so Dee Dee could wreck his laboratory during his confinement.Still not as bad as the one where Dexter got sent to detention, only to escape into federal prison and end up detained there.
>>137426630>But at least all the characters get it at some point.Problem is, with practically zero character development, it all comes across as Craig having no fucking clue as to what make of his show and going for the low hanging fruit instead.
> THE SECURITY SYSTEM TAKES CONTROL OF SQUIDWARDS' HOUSEhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1TCNygEiihgJokes aside, that was a genuinely shit episode.
>>137422170>he choose to stay bitterdo cartoon characters have agency now? Are you autistic? Do you not understand the point of this thread.
i'd have to go with a third dad episode. couldn't come up a better payoff to those wasted 7 minutes than "and then it rained".but i guess since it's not moralfagging people don't care about it.
>>137427363>do cartoon characters have agency now?Their writers are suppose to write those traits in, yes?>Are you autistic?>>Do you not understand the point of this thread.I do, you don't, and that MLaaTR makes me want to see Sheldon die in acid instead of root for him to get the Jennybowl. So they failed at writing a compelling argument in defense for that.
>>137398876Because Butch is a hardcore Christian and they reject the idea of ghosts as well as an afterlife that isn't HeavenGoes to show you the only time the show was good was when someone else was at the wheel
>>137428909>they reject the idea of ghostsWhat's the holy ghost then?
>>137429043I'm pretty sure it's the holy 'spirit' and that's more of an angel
>>137383976Arnold deserved it
>>137407723At least they retconned it so Seymour gets a better ending
>>137406749To be fair, AC made sense because it was blood money for the death of someone they truly cared about, they couldn't stand to see itthey kept enough to be able to keep the classroom kept up for a long while
>>137429449BUT THE GOVERNMENT!? Maybe give it directly to schools or start some kind of charity meant to actually help kids like them in his memory, but when we personally know how shitty the government is, even in the anime, it feels like bullshit.
>>137383932https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l_sZhNE23iwBuy also the little clown woman.
>>137380075This is probably incredibly autistic, but as a kid I always felt bad for girly teengirl getting rejected so hard by pearl and her friends, then having both mr krabs and spongebob shit on her after. I never got the abuse of one-off gag characers since I'd treat them as if they'd still exist offscreen.
Mr. Universe from Steven Universe Future.
>>137429449Giving it to the government was flat out retarded
>>137425699Gravity falls is only infuriating if you where into the fanbase while it aired, the marketing and the fandom tries to paint it as this deep show with hidden meanings and lore but at most is an episodic show with some stuff coming back once or twice.
>>137426029They save the world from a thing they partially help release.
>>137380075Some say you can still hear anon screeching to this day
>>137430141How racist are the citizens of Bikini bottom? They seem to think every sponge is Spongebob
>>137415283Wait, this makes sense, though. Dexter's uncool because he's irregular, so he made himself bigger and everyone else shorter, now he's uncool because he's irregular. The episode is still probably shit, but that logically flows.Also, I must be mentally fucked up because I can't read the word "somehow" without thinking of picrel
>>137383932What's wrong with this outcome?It's classic irony
>>137429674well at least Johnny got some Clussy before that shitty ending
I'm surprised that the finale of Steven Universe.
> turns decent-normie waifu into mary-sue> entire anime is soul's cummie droppings over his ego> maka literally just does what she's told (nb4 'muh daddy issues') in all seriousness, making her a weapon/meister hybrid was braindead
>>137422493agreed but let's be real here, should finn have ended up w/ flame princess?
One last naked Dexter in the dream machine to end things off. Did he die here after Dee Dee falls asleep or what?
>>137400849Some British comedies are based around things going wrong for the main character, usually as a result of their actions. It's very rare for a comedy to do this to someone who isn't the main character. One Foot in the Grave is a good British example of this, while Naked Gun is a good American version. Unfortunately many American comedies decided to punish a main character because of the failures of another character or worse punished a minor character. Neither of which are funny.
