Smarter and more sophisticated does not mean boring and there is nothing wrong with having standards

Dilbert is a good example of that. But sometimes a cartoon's just got to use what it has. Besides that, the character looks foolish. Meaning there needs to be a low-level of picking things up at first chance. Smarter and sophisticated are two totally different things anyways.

[up] That's what's going to separate THIS from current-gen Spongebob... Which this show better NOT end up like, or it won't only be another fatal blow to Disney's TV rep, but to the rep of two great artists as well.

Even if I had different face, I AM STILL DISGRACED.

No worries, Shop. Ever since the creation of Power Puff Girls, Foster's home, and MLP:FIM, any series with Mc Cracken and Total overlord mistress of hotness Lauren Faust HAS to be better than Sponge Bob or your favorite, Eliot Kid.[lol]

[up]Please don't start. This isn't the time or place for this, alright? I'm trying NOT to say anything about "that", anymore.

Back on topic, though - is it any guarantee that this could be a successor to Jimmy Two Shoes (an overlooked slapstick comedic gem with actually entertaining/enjoyable sadistic humor, IMHO...), knowing who is attached to it, at least? I mean, I'd love to assume the obvious, despite it only being one clip...

[up]Just joshing with ya, but thank you.

I really do think of it like said slapstick comedy, but set in space instead of "Miseryville"(Hell).

[down]That's what I meant!

[up][up]I don't consider this a Spiritual Successor. It doesn't share the same creator, crew, studio, network, or even country (Jimmy Two-Shoes is from Canada). Just a bit of the animation style. Plus, this show takes place in space, which the other takes place in a city of monsters.

@kyun: No, it takes place in Hell.

People are already counting this show out because of one Toilet Humor joke? We have high standards for cartoons, now.

Yes, due to "some people' who get annoyed with the little overbearing cliches in every comedy surreal cartoon. Just a bunch of pictures and noise.

No personal attacks, please.

In any case, I'm not judging the show yet, only the clip. Who knows, maybe it'll work much better in context. I do have a *lot* of respect for McCracken and Faust's works.

That's EXACTLY why I want to love this show. I can really get behind the two for amazing artwork and story.

.... for the record, the show Jimmy Two-Shoes never explicitly says that it takes place in Hell. The creator wanted it that way but the network turned the idea down, so it's left ambiguous.

[up]It doesn't matter. Any young nine-year-old with the concept of the Afterlife would probably point out in the first five minutes it looks like Hell. Miseryville is just a nice way of calling it.

Now, back on Jack Mac, Totally watching it now!!! No matter how bad!

(P.S: Does anyone know how to make words look adjacent-looking?)

I was wondering why the country bumpkin Ewok/Schmoo was talking like Fix-it Felix... Okay, when did Ralph drop the guy on this poor villain's porch? [lol]

9:00 Eastern, I believe?(8:00 central)

I'll probably expect some references to unintelligent canids, superpowered homunculi, and sentient anthropomorphisms of one's thought. If that happens, I'm bailing.

A part of me hopes to see something new and unique from the Macraigkens that doesn't rely on their older material.

It has been a problem to me. I'm getting kinda sick of stuff that makes references to previous material. Like a newer show can't make it on its own without relying on its predecessor's success.

Maybe I'm just nip-ticking.

to my knowledge, Foster's made one, maybe two references to PPG or other shows.

Before this, though, I have to suffer through "Mission:Marvel". Wish me luck for not getting diabetus.[lol]

Oh... yeah. The Powerpuff Girls are artificial humans.

Damn, some coins just dropped in my head.
