ITT: signs a cartoon is running out of ideas
Marcy and Sasha should have both committed to be evil but to be two different kinds of evil, Sasha's should have been more murder hobo themed and Marcy's should have been JRPG antagonist themed think like Xenoblade

>>156120174/thread
>>156120174Context?
>>156120174You know what's fucking crazy is that these were made by billiionfold which Butch Hartman himself started up. I would have figured episodes headed by staff hired by him would make the show better not make it markedly worse.
>>156119755Whenever they start breaking old established rules.It basically says "we can't work within the restrictions that we put on ourselves anymore, so we're just gonna do whatever now".Yeah, >>156120174 is an obvious example.
>>156120886FOP is more a case of doubling down on creative restrictions
>>156120637The faries had to hide to not be seen by adults and whoever was not their god child
>build a five-part story around adding a caveman to the cast, adding him to several commercial bumpers and giving him a theme song and everything>only use him in six episodes after that>only two of those episodes are actually about him>two of them are actually about Webby>if you don't count his introduction arc, Doofus made more appearances in the series than him overallI can't tell whether the writers gave up on him before the audience, but it was pretty universal disdain.
>>156120174The breaking of the rules is a good example, but Fairly Odd Parents also has the great example of 'adding a Poochy.' They did it three times! They added a baby, they added a sexy girl, they added a dog, they couldn't help themselves!
>>156122046It's so obvious that Bubba was shoehorned into the show because dinosaurs were popular and Disney felt they needed one.It's a shame, because Tootsie was cute.
>>156119769Nah Marcy should’ve been a manipulator like Sasha but in a different fashion. Marcy should’ve been pretended to be helpless and play Anne and Sasha against each other. Like she should’ve pushed Anne in danger to save herself. Marcy was perfect to be a false friend.like Sasha’s a bitch but she’s direct about it, Marcy should’ve been an indirect bitch. Instead they made her quirk chunguas and it was for the worst.

>>156122422Uh-huh-huh You said tit.
>>156122556NTA but they get treated like shit for being retards and the supporting cast is also important
>>156119755Giving literally every character a love interest. Ice age as an example
>>156119755Add a baby.Move to a new town.Special guest star current celebrity!
>>156122406The Brave Little Toaster Goes to Mars is the best installment in the franchise, thougheverbeit.
>>156122806Does the mod hate Ice Age or love Eileen?
>>156120637I'll try and sum up every rule broken, but I'm probably missing some.1. Poof and magical shit is just there in full view of Timmy's dad and Vicky despite the entire series hinging on no one else finding out he has fairies. Apparently they just stop giving a shit and everyone calls them "Timmy's weird floating friends" at some point.2. Vicky being mean in front of Timmy's dad. Vicky is only Timmy's babysitter because she puts on a sweet face for his parents. She's not some slasher villain who breaks into their house to torment their kid, she works for them.3. Kids aren't supposed to share fairies, but they wrote around this for Chloe apparently.
>>156122339>she's tenOut of ten!
>>156122857>Anti-Fairy being visible without special goggles.>Fairies and anti-fairies hanging out together
>>156120801>I would have figured episodes headed by staff hired by him would make the show better not make it markedly worse.Well, that’s what happens when you fire Steve Marmel and replace him with a writer who worked on Coconut Fred and the Bubsy pilot.
>>156123171>Coconut Fred and the Bubsy pilotOh. Oh my god. Why? Why would he do that?
>>156123121Thanks Anon, forgot those
>>156120801Butch wanted to end the series after channel chasers but nick said no . He should have fought like John K .
>>1561228571. Mr Crocker sees timmys godparents all the time but people don't complain about it.
>>156123189Funny thing is, that isn’t even the extent of the actual shit he wrote for.He was also a writer on Bad Dog, Pet Alien, Shaggy and Scooby-Doo Get a Clue, Ice Age Buck Wild and he even jumped ship to write for Bunsen is a Beast.
>>156123284I think I've seen chigger infestations less disgusting to me than this. Some people really do get by via just having experience, I guess.
>>156123084>>156122339nine eleven
>>156122096>they added a sexy girl
>>156120801>>156123222To my recollection Butch has gone on record saying he kept FOP going so that his crew wouldn’t have to find new jobs and could have steady, reliable employment. On the one hand that’s a really noble thing to do, but on the other hand…have some fucking respect for the cartoon you created and at least make it good.
>>156123284>Fucking dire>Well there's Muppet Treasure Isl>... It had a videogame?
>>156120174Bitch fartman approved this btw
>>156122046>a five-part storyI forgot these used to be common in cartoons back in the 80's and 90's. Chip&Dale's Rescue Rangers first few episodes is a 5 parter as well. I feel like shows that did these were pitching a movie idea but didn't have the budget and just split the idea into normal episodes.
>>156122765Strange you consider typical slop plots to be magically exampt from this label. You're like Meg Griffin trying to be creative
>>156119755Context?
>>156122435Formerly Chuck's
>>156119755Marcy was honestly just a weak character. Worst girl of the three. Sasha is miles ahead of the two. I'm still a Sasha enjoyer even if I don't care for the frogshow
>>156127209The premise of Amphibia was an ordinary isekai show with Simpsons-esque wacky townsfolk shenanigans, and it was good. Then they decided they wanted to change from an isekai show into a storyline-driven show instead, and so a 'the town put on a battle of the bands competition' episode comes right after the conclusion of a Grand Epic Quest subplot, and just before an 'Important Character Turns Eeeevil' subplot. Which is why Anne, the main character of the show in the middle, is in isekai-show ordinary clothes, while her friends are in storyline-show Epic Quest battle armour.
>>156120174this episode gets posted a lot (and it was indeed pure shit mind you) but the fact they pulled a Randy Marsh with Crocker was really when you knew it was all overalso its pretty stupid that Chloe meets Vicky, and ofc beats her up and humiliates her, but never meets her little sister who would've been a lot harder for them to write around
>>156127432If Tootie did meet Chloe, she would have been PISSED, no doubt.
>>156127437which is interesting because Tootie is presented as a sympathetic and overly friendly character, usually, so having her confront the girl that essentially stole her role would've made for an actually interesting plot. or they'd just assassinate her character, which is the more likely path of least resistance from the late season FOP writers
>>156119755The moment a cartoon starts rehashing fifty year old sitcoms plots you know it’s out of ideas. And like half of Amphibia’s episodes were like that.
>>156122096>add a baby>add a dog>add a girlLooks like we got all three of the Poochie-Cerberus’ heads in one show. Now he really is the original dog from Hell.
>>156128334The funniest part is that they literally forgot about the dog and he eventually just stops showing up in episodes
>>156123284Why?Why the hell would you fire your best writers in favor of the mastermind who wanted to bring the most obnoxious vidya bobcat to television, the mastermind behind a shameless SpongeBob ripoff, the writer of some godawful After Dark screensaver tie-in, the writer of the worst Scooby-Doo series that isn’t Velma and the writer of some Bigfoot sitcom?
>>156122096Oh you’re just an autistic person. Makes sense now.
>>156119755movie parody episode
>>156128685So, pretty much the entirety of The Super Mario Bros Super Show?
>>156119769>>156122224>the show would've been better had it been a completely different show written differently the whole timei mean, maybe
>>156122096They also blackwashed and genderbent Timmy and sold it as a completely different character for the revival.
>>156129886Well, it was definitely an improvement over Seasons 9-10. Shame we’ll never get a second season because Eric Bauza is fucking dead. Now, It’s only legacy is that one selfshipper bitch who was absolutely mindbroken over Devzel being canon or some shit.
>>156123171>Steve Marmelwho
>>156127353She goes super-saiyan at the end of the show too for some reason.
>>156126206He was burned out . he wanted the show to end but the executives didn't let him.
>>156119755fairytale episodes
>>156123121Jorgen actually changed that rule onscreen during the second Jimmy Neutron crossover
>>156130458>Amphibia fans think this is badass
>>156130750I'm still confused on why she became a God or even why she went back to LA.
>>156130771Because the writers were retarded. There's a reason Gravity Falls and Owl House are remembered while Amphibia is FORGOTTEN. Mutt LOST.
>>156128447The Answer: A big exaggerated comedic shrug
> Ha ha! I love this show about those goofy frogs.SEVERAL MONTHS LATER...
>>156130771The universal rule is: It's rare for someone to actually know how to end a show that everyone can enjoy.
>>156130846I remember a time when people wanted more serialization in their tv shows because most shows at the time were just garbage.Well, turns out people aren't the best at serialization.
(pulling the pin from a grenade and holding it overhead)
>>156130790>There's a reason Gravity Fallsincest>and Owl Housebrown tweenager
>>156119755Commercials air right after the intro .
>>156130254Don’t forget them turning Poof into a Tumblr sexyman and narrowly avoiding it with Foop by keeping the square head.
>>156130849But going back to LA was an entire season.
>>156126679Is this replying to the wrong post? It seems like you're making things up about that anon to get mad at for no reason.
>>156130849That's because /co/ does not have a single good ending
>>156122857Also Vicky just trying to kill Timmy with a chainsaw.It’s written in the Bible that Vicky’s treatment of Timmy is always Bullying or Passive Aggressive, never actually hurting him. Like when she threatened to make him watch girly movies with her in the Pilot.
>>156123260Because he has a different role in the series as the crazy guy who knows that fairies are but can't prove it to anyone.
>>156130964Behold!
>>156127432>they pulled a Randy Marsh with Crockerexplain for non FOP enjoyers?
>>156130998This was slop to the max, and I’ve never understood why Ed Edd n Eddy fandom sucks it off. Usually they’re the same fans who write DD as Gay and think Ed is an abused tumblr child.
Bait used to be believable.
>>156131019Should’ve ended like this:https://youtu.be/Zud2FJXKul4?t=244“We don’t need to get along with everybody else, we’ve got eachother. Screw everybody else. I hate those Fags. Why PRETEND?”
>>156131043>slapstick show ends in Eddy crying like a baby because “muh bwuther ABUSES MEEE!!! WAAAAHHH” so all the Spoilt Selfish Jerkoffs in the Culdesac forgive him and gives him hugs and kisses and make him one of them>and the whole plot is them running away so they don’t get beat up by those same kids they’re kissing the shoes of>in a Slapstick where they get beat up by them and Humiliated by them and Bullied by them every episodeIt’s Slop.
No, I'm not going to pay you any attention.
>>156131019The eds are going to go right back to being hated within five minutes unless they're patient enough with Eddy to show him how he doesn't need to prove himself in order to be liked and Eddy needs to have the courage and introspection to truly own up to fixing his flaws but everyone in the show is an idiot and an asshole so the wholesome chungus ending won't stick. Edd and Ed have a chance though.It's one of those "happy endings" that isn't really happy if you take more than five minutes to think about.
>>156131043Cope, the movie was shit, and it felt written by Rebecca Sugar (which wouldn't be surprising with her being a fujo and all the homo things in it)
Why are you melting down?
>>156130998Does it really count when its the literal end of the series? and an actual ending, not something slapped together out from a cancellationLike the rest of the examples here are some weird attempt to keep something going past its due date or follow trends instead
>>156131178It's an ending. That's enough.
>>156131191Thats more than a lot of shows get.Still feels weird to put it in the same category as the rest of the stuff here though.
>>156130964Chowder
>>156130964Spongebob movie 2004>but it's not a real ending-Shut the fuck up, nothing after it matters
>>156131145Edd and Ed will also fail to be sycophants to their bullies.The fandom never brings it up because they wanna pretend Eddy is the cause of their woes, but Edd is an outcast because he’s weak and a tattletale, and Ed is an outcast because he’s disgusting and stupid.Double D will deliver one of Kevin’s reportcards the next episode, then Kevin will knock his teeth out and steal his hat while everyone else laughs at him.
>>156119755Episode about current social issues/diversity.
>>156130964Courage
When a show gets popular enough to get celebrities and the celebrities go from voicing characters to just voicing themselves so the main characters just happen to constantly meet celebrities.
>>156131145>>156131310Not to mention one of those Kids is Sarah.She has no reason to stop being a spoiled violent brat around Ed. But they had a Gay Steven Universe ending so we’re pretending that Eddy crying will fix the other kids mistreating them the entire series, and magically cure Sarah.
>>156129886She was cute.
>>156131410I don't even see why celebrities would like that. Kids don't know or care that some random chef character or whatever is named after you.
>>156130994>It’s written in the Bible that Vicky’s treatment of Timmy is always Bullying or Passive Aggressive, never actually hurting him. Like when she threatened to make him watch girly movies with her in the Pilot.I can think of at least one episode where Timmy is tied up on a rack and Vicky opens up a rolled canvas to reveal a set of torturing tools.
>>156131488You don't understand why someone would want to star in an episode of a popular TV show based around them as a celebrity?
>>156131582Some rules they dropped earlier than others i guess
>>156130994Vicky stopped acting human in like Season 2
>>156130254>that one selfshipper bitch who was absolutely mindbroken over Devzel being canonWTF!?!?!
>>156130790LOL delusional retard. Amphibia is actually popular. While Owl House is forgotten and got canceled.
>>156132352Both shit
>>156132403And yet Amphibia is still the best Disney show of the 2020s. Funny how that works.
>>156132262Look at this and tell me there’s a god.
>>156132609There is no God.
>>156129886woketards defended this
>>156132352Getting no results from saucenao for this. Who's the artist?
>>156129099Marcy may be my favorite but I would've loved her as a straight villainess
>>156133838Try reading the signature.
>>156120174Faggy Shod Parents was always a lame show. Only good episode is when Vicky gets locked up and a goat shows her panties on screen.

>>156119755When the creator of this shit, aka Dykena Terrace, can only plagiarize Little Witch Academia but make it shittier and uglier. Also, the main character becomes a tranny in the end.
>>156130771Really? I'm more confused why they needed to copy fucking dragon ball super back when people were shitting on that reveal and anime.

>Amphibia has official funko pops nowNo wonder Owl House jeets are getting uppity and samefagging hard in this thread. Seeing Amphibia and Matt Braly winning for the gazillionth time must have made his brown Indian ass eternally butthurt and seething with anger. As if it wasn't already humiliating enough that KoG and that owl house fat negro mom thread got archived after three days of nonstop necrobumps.
>>156119755>episode just uses characters in a parody of another seriesId give Treehouse of Horror and the Family Guy Star Wars episodes a pass since they are set up as a "special" event episode
Sasha was non debatably the hottest when she was a murder hobo. I'm not gonna argue those viewership numbers on Disney + even if they might be manipulated in some way I strictly say as a lover of Sasha she was the best and hottest when her love and obsession over Anne was portrayed as toxic. Hell the best porn of Sasha is when Anne admits that Sasha was right about everything and how from now on she's only gonna think and obey to whatever makes Sasha the most happy
>>156119755seemed fine to me
>>156135375i luv Sasha my aryan woife
>>156133903She certainly had more reasons to be one than Sasha did.
>>156135184>Id give Family Guy Star Wars a pass why? they reuse jokes from the show in these and by the last one they're already sick of themjust because you saw those episodes when you were a kid doesn't mean they were good
>>156136781You didn’t read it
>>156131488You're saying you wouldn't want Homer Simpson to go "Oh my God, Anon, I'm a big fan of yours!"
>>156135170>he still thinks a show getting Funko Pops means anythingPicrel came out a year and a half ago. Guess that means Barney's a better show than Amphibia.
>>156137749>Barney's a better show than Amphibia.yes>t. Amphibia fan
>>156123260>Mr Crocker sees timmys godparents all the time but people don't complain about it.They do in Universe, they call him crazy, so the audience infers the same. Also he's the one person powering the whole Magic World by how much he believes in fairies.
>>156123222>Butch wanted to end the series after channel chasersFalse, Chanel Chasers isn't even a season finale.
Any show that goes from a mostly light-hearted episodic series to a super deep and serious ongoing storyline
>>156137749Cry harder jeet
>>156135170>>156140820>Funko Pops bad...except when Amphibia gets themWould you like to shill the comic again? You know, the one for which the first issue isn't set to be released until nearly two years after it was announced, and nearly five years after the show ended.
>>156140897>h-heh, oh yeah? Amphibia will be getting another book next year so t-take that, frogchud!owl tranny literally has no argument left Kwab. This is just sad, like the time when owl house fags tries to shill their flopped book by spamming them on /co/ and their threads died wimply to page 11 in just a day.
