Why do they use the vomit brown/yellow/green color so many damn times?!
Why do their cartoon ‘people’ look nothing like real people?
Have their story lines no integrity? have their ideas run dry into sappy stereotypical stories with no concern for the real world
Newsflash, execs: Kids (I hate the word kid. It sounds so vulgar and demeaning) do not have the power to do what ever they want. If an adult wants them to stay in school or do chres, well, they have do. Don’t fill young minds with meaningless drivel about some natural righ to not do homework. True, homework sucks from day one to college, but you hdo it anyway. that is how ou learn.
I like Anime, and nothing is wrong with fantasy, or eve a kids vs. adults platform, but for God’s sakes could you make the children more likeable and less idiotic? Seriousl, Every show my nephews/neices/little cousins make me watch just sickens me nowadays. They are not even funny nymore!
This was a bad rant. i can never make a satisfactory rant in English. IT just needs to be said. why can’t they make a single good sho for that channel? It is a childrens network, i know, but really! find something at least creatively stimulating to a child’s imagination. Eh. I need to lie down.
I don’t like Nickelodeon very much (why in MY day, Nick ruled!.. ). But some of their cartoons are pretty cool, mainly SpongeBob SquarePants and The Wild Thornberrys.
My big problem with Nickelodeon is N’Sync Backstreet Boys Destiny’s Child Britney Spears Pink Mandy Moore Aaron Carter Baja Men being shoved in the kids’ faces from 2:00 on. When my oldest gets home from school and gets his 1/2 hour of cartoons before homework, it’s Cartoon Network all the way, baybee.
ah, now that was a great cartoon. it was as good as any japanese anime, but it was home grown USA cartoon (based on a character from a japanese game, to be certain, but still…).
oh it had such a sad, sad death. so ignoble. damn network execs and the whole “violence” thing of the mid ninetys.
we need to get speaker for the dead in here.
come, speaker! speak for these long gone but not yet forgotten cartoons!
I vaguely remember someone in a fan subbing group I worked for bitching about a sonic tv show that was godawful he was translating.
But then again, I worked on Digiman…
WRETCH
Why do the shittiest anime make it big in america.
Gundum, LORD of Mecha anime. WTF only two of the series, and the short ones at that and only 1 episode each day!?! They have 30 years of kick ass anime to show in this series.
DragonBall, funnier than shit with all of the profanity, sex and other assorted stuff not in the english version.
DBZ…they were cranking out the anime faster than the guy could write the manga (comics) HALF OF DBZ HAS MADE UP SHITTY PLOTS Goku in hell fighting in a tournament for his soul?! WTF!!!
DBGT shoots self with backback nuke
What I coudln’t believe is that they showed Cowboy Bebop w/o censoring it. And they actually almost translated it right.
My problem with Nickelodian is that they are owned and run by the same Media Lords who run MTV. As such, Nickelodian has the same agenda as MTV.
However, I do like Squarebob Spongepants.
Although I was never a big Rocko fan I liked Salute Your Shorts. (and, in the same vein, Hey Dude). And what happened to Clarissa and Alex Mack? And Are You Afraid of the Dark? (worth watching just for when they throw that stuff on the fire!)
I’m always watching Nick when I babysit and the quality has just gone down. All these crappy new shows that say, “Look! We’re multicultural!” Like the stupid one about the Hispanic family. Or the one where they don’t know their cousin is a puppet. Honestly.
