the late time slot allowed so much flexibility

rick and morty ruined everything

No doubt

Adventure Time sowed the seeds

thats cartoon network

I'm aware

different division

adult swim and cartoon network were given separate autonomy in liek 2005

[as] seemed to abandon its homecooked diverse style for that cal arts shit tho shortly after that

the simp's sons

it was gradual

flapjack opened it up

in 2005?

Gumball too

Richard and mortimer

calarts style didnt take over until 2014

is there gonna be a sweat

yeah from my nuts niggro

DAMN

👉

@B|ack|ce it built gradually though

it was pendleton wards fault true

there were shows and shorts and shit that were one offs or had like 5 seconds of life

all terrible

all contributed slowly

At least with gumball there's some kind of aesthetic due to the mixed media design

flapjack and regular show were the last good cartoon network shows

i sorta liked Chowder

gumball and chowder were also ok

but the Friday Night Cartoon Cartoon era was impossible to top

Courage

when adult swim was still sort of nebulously defined from daytime CN

nah

its just the audience of daytime CN is the audience for nightime AS

because children dont watch tv anymore

Adult swim wont even exist in a few years

only weirdo adults

Itll just be a subsection on hbo max

Whatever Happened To Robot Jones? was nice to look at with its Schoolhouse Rock visual emulation

They dont have family guy or king of the hill reruns rights

Anymore due to the disney thing
