The kind of movie where the gowns get their own credit.

And top billing, no less.

"Irascible cockswain" is the best phrase humanly possible.

This is awesome. I'll have to start watching this show. It looks awesome. I still wish Alex Hirsch was still writing Flapjack, but those assholes at CN had to cancel it. I'm still not over that. Flapjack's thirst for ADVENTURE! inspired me to join the Coast Guard.
Now that I've found cartoons like this and Korra I'll be able to kick my MLP habit for good.

*slowclap*

Kids are getting more sophisticated in their humor as adults get less so. Cartoons meet them both in the middle, one side on their way up, the other side, well, the kids look away and pass quickly...

Is adult humor really getting less sophisticated? Go google "Le Petamane" to see what a lot of people thought was funny a hundred years ago. That is, at best, only slightly more dignified than Adam Sandler.

Gravity Falls, from what I have seen, is great. Kudos to the writers.

Yes, person who argues for kid shows as adult humor, comedy IS less sophisticated now.

i like archer.

POPULAR COMEDY THEN:

Here comes Ping Pong, the clumsy Chinaman! From the people who brought you Shoe Polish, the Dishonest Negro!

POPULAR COMEDY NOW:

This thing. Also, we've got Louie and The Daily Show.

Yeah, I'd say we're doing better.

As far as being out-of-touch goes, whining about adults watching cartoons these days is about on par with whining about them playing video games...

... These days.

Heehee, video games are pretty damned childish too.

The evidence keeps adding up.

adults are only allowed to work and drink heavly, everything else is childish.
