[up]Yes. There are new episodes coming out soon. Because they were finished before it was canceled.

@legionparasite SBT was canceled because nobody would step up to manufacture merchandise for the show. Problem Solverz, like a slew of other new shows, was simply brought in to fill the void.

Thing is, PS was never originally developed to replace SBT outright (shit, PS' concept existed for years on You Tube, way before Genndy announced SBT). As much as its visuals may not be in good taste, this misaimed hatedom towards PS is not helping matters.

@Malagasy Parrot You do realize I wasn't serious about the whole "Sym Bionic Titan being replaced by this" thing right? Yeah I was venting my frustration about Titan being canceled and this looking unappealing to me, but yeah I can't REALLY say anything bad about it since I don't plan on going past the pilot episode.

Looks like PS has a few more episodes to go. Time will tell if the series will get better, or get canceled.

You got some dirt on you. Here's some more!

[up][up] Seriousness or the lack thereof doesn't translate well on the Internets. There's a reason people on the forums use Sarcasm Mode and Sincerity Mode.

It only makes me ask , if the art wasn't so god awful, would there be so much hate or would it simply be "meh" as far as cartoons go?

Yeah, pretty much.

I'm actually watching it for the first time now (cause I don't wanna complain about shows I don't watch). The idea has potential. Two random guys and a weird monster thing solve problems. Simple enough. However, ignoring the art, if a character is a protagonist, you want the audience to like them. Making a character look like living poo is not a way to get the audience to like your character.

The kids have shirts that ANIMATE. What.... Anyways, the eye-blinding mixtures of neon colors and animated patterns is enough to distract from the story. I don't usually get headaches, but I did because of all of the random, flashing colors.

So, my thought was this was a horrible rip-off of Regular Show. There's way too many similarities, like the 80s stuff, mundane turns to abnormal, humanoid creatures living among humans and being like humans. The only thing different is the randomness in Regular Show makes a bit of sense and PS was just a truly random string of events (and of course, the crappy art.)

[up]I agree with what you said about Regular Show. It's always sort of surreal, but you can always tell at what point in the episode things really start to get weird and insane.

I'd say it feels more like someone took Adventure Time and Regular Show and put them in a blender with a dash of neon food coloring.

The strange thing is that Paper Rad, the art group who made this, inspired the aesthetics of many recent CN shows. The problem is, well, the creators of Adventure Time and Regular Show clearly put a lot more effort put into their respective shows.

I'm a big sucker for cartoons, but YARG, man.

Alfe looks almost like a rather ugly knockoff (or at least an attempt at one) of Domo-Kun, with none of the charm.

Saw it just now, it sucked worse than I thought. The coloring and animation hurts my eyes, and that cat looked gross. I've never seen SBT, but I'm sure it was better than this.

Wait, there's a show on Nickelodeon that's hated more than the Jimmy Neutron spinoff that absolutely no one asked for?

Just watched the pilot. That was...interesting. I think I like it. This includes the animation. Especially that seizure inducing carnival.

The fact that this show was made is a PROBLAM

Well the show lasted a week, and the new episode is on right now as I'm typing. Its literally like somebody took acid and watched Adventure Time. I really hope this doesn't last long.

Okay. I retract my previous statement. This show sucks. Really badly.

And George Takei guest starring is like sticking a diamond in a piece of crap.
