I wonder, all these cartoons where they announce a second season so soon, it's just a marketing gimmick, right?, like "if they've announced a second season then the show has been a success and so I must consume."

I mean yeah, it seems pretty straightforward.
That's why a lot of shows will get 20 episodes ordered but they always end up splitting them in half to make the two seasons.
i believe doing that also makes more money for the network
"two seasons worth of 10 episodes" both costs more to produce, and earns the company more to air, than "20 episodes"
so they can order 20 episodes for cheaper, and then make more money by pretending its 2 seasons
No, they do it because it generally takes a long time to make an episode of a cartoon.
Instead of hiring all those animators and writers to make one season and then pay them to sit on their hands for a year or two to see if the show does okay, they make the one season and start working on the second while the first one airs. Also, some parts of a show finish before other parts, like storyboards, so it's better to have your storyboard guys working on season 2 while the voice actors are finishing up the show.
If a show only gets one season and the second season is announced, then canceled, that's how you know something was absolutely FRICKED BAD at a catastrophic level
Sounds like schizo logic. You're nor required to like or watch a series just because it has a second season. You're not locked in for all 12 episodes and unable to walk away if the show is bad

Now we're talkin'. What's your favourite episode? I really liked Dangerous Mugman and Piano Lesson
Her final showdown against the Devil was my personal favourite episode but i also liked Rats All, Folks and Sweet Temptation too
this show was kind of fricking boring.
That said, the game itself that it was based on was also boring to play to an extent.
It's threads like these that make me realize that even though they're autistically obsessed with cartoons, the average Cinemaphile has a weak grasp of how the industry actually works.
its weird how, despite attempting to emulate an oldtimey cartoon, this show's artstyle still feels very noticeably modern
im not even talking about anything beyond visuals, like the comedy or storytelling, albiet those are incredibly modern- im just talking about visuals. the character designs come close to those of the era its based on, but nooooot quite. something is just off and i cant put my finger on it. the expressions, the way its animated, theres a hint of something very modern about this, but i just cant say why. does anyone else feel it? its weird
>inb4 "because it just looks cleaner" or "none of the technological limitations" thats absolutely not it, its something in the deliberate choices being made
Anon, you’re delusional.
i may be an autist but even i can tell youre being sarcastic when you include THAT image alongside your statement
It’s probably the expressions and poses the characters are in, the biggest one did me is the format and directing of the show itself is completely different from a cartoon from the 40’s
thank you anon, your image is a perfect example of the differences
All of Cuphead was already made, Netflix just split it up.
What about the show creators?
I can't stop watching Dirt Nap it's so fricking funny
Most of the time, the "second season" is another batch of episodes produced alongside season 1. So yes, it's a marketing gimmick.
Also branding since kids wouldn't understand what these terms actually mean
#1. Marketing gimmick. Idiots think a S2 means it was good enough to get a second shot. When you need to check production blocks not 'seasons' most of this shit is made in one run because;
#2. Staff get a raise when they're brought back to work on a follow up season. If they claim S1b is S2 they can get the benefit of #1 while keeping the costs down and then the staff only get a raise when production block 2 aka S3 is made. And to keep costs down they never make block 2 into 2 'seasons' which is why so many of these shows die at S3.
yes. A network will agree to produce a certain about of hours for a TV show, and then decide what they want to call a season. Cuphead was picked up for "one" season and then they split it into two. By the time the series aired, the staff had been let go and they sat waiting to be released for two years while the DLC for the games was being finished.
Animaniacs 2020 getting a season 3 was unique, but it probably wasn't due to it actually having an audience to support it. Ratings don't mean shit these days until the thing does MASSIVE amounts of money.
SO IF YOU’RE LOOKIN’ FOR FUN
