"Cartoons"

[VoiceOfReasonPast]

So he's Elfo the Elf? It's like they didn't give a shit or something.

It already got a second season renewal before it premiered today. I wonder how deep Netflix's pockets are to be able to just greenlight everything.

Their user growth has already started to slow the fuck down. Dunno how long they can keep shitting out these vanity projects, or renewing shit before they even have any numbers on it.

He's just Fry again. The whole thing is just Futurama again with duller characters. Also 'Elfo' is a dumb name. Like they couldn't have come up with a better name?

It annoys me that like they're already making Elfo want to fuck Bean. Futurama waited until season 3 before they went that route with Fry and Leela.

I heard the initial order was for twenty episodes and, after watching it, I thought 'really, they're gonna make twenty episodes of this?'

That looks like what they did with the next 10 episodes coming next year. Netflix calling this first batch "part 1" instead of a season threw me off.

Maybe they'll make Bean a tranny. Then they'll be the "first trans-lead cartoon female show" or whatever, and then Netflix will have to keep it running to keep up political cred.

Would at least make the show more interesting. There is nothing new or groundbreaking about this ..its the same "girl power!" stuff Groaning could've made in 1989 when the Simpsons came out. This stuff was already common then.

I'm pretty sure Fry wanted to fuck Leela from the beginning.

I read a 4/tv/ thread on the show and people are asking if it's SJW shit. It's not even that. It's not even offensively bad it's just bland beyond all belief

It wasn't emphasized until after Fry had those parasites. He slept around plenty of times before focusing on Leela.

[Keith Chegwin]

They had Fry & Leela episodes before that. The Titanic episode for one. The first Xmas episode for another. It was there from the beginning

[Osterzone]

The hookup in the Titanic episode was just to throw off Zapp and that Xmas present seemed more like a friendly intention than a romantic one, but I guess it can be up to interpretation.


At 2:43 it shows all the women he's been with before Leela, plus there was Amy and his grandmother. Fry wasn't always serious about Leela.

Anyway I'm sperging too much about this. The point is Elfo is lame and Disenchantment sucks.

According to Doge, we're currently experiencing a "golden age" of Western cartoons now.




Then again, Doge was always retarded.

[VoiceOfReasonPast]

What a Golden Age this is. Cheap flash animation. Shoddy, carbon-copy character designs with Dreamworks Smirks and the same general style of humor. Maybe animu ripoffs if you're really lucky.

Gen Zed did it first. If you count the trailer as part of the show.

i never watched bojack unbound horseman but it looked like gay 2DFU shit that replaced humor with mediocre drama.
