        It ruined nothing, the character is still going strong as ever and if anything Taz-Mania is forgotten by most.
        Still better than having Taz as Bugs Bunny's fricking pet dog, and I say this as someone who liked Loonedy Tunes Show for the most part.
        How do you even do a 'pure' interesting Taz anyway? He's just a rabid drooling furious animal. Taz-Mania did the best anyone could to make a show out of him. It's not like Daffy, who can support a Duck Dodgers series out of him and you still could also have Robin Hood Daffy, Stupor Duck, etc, shows.
        Wabbit of all things probably had a good idea with 'Theodore Taz' and having Taz conflicted with his bestial nature while trying to act 'civilized'. It's a take I could see working with Taz's family and background.

          Maybe like an anthology series? Each episode is him stumbling across some other Looney Tune and it's about seeing everyone else running from him.

            Fair enough if you're just spitballing, but they probably didn't have permission to use the whole Loony Tunes roster of characters for Tazmania. It was a Tazmanian Devil focused show and any other recognizable character would detract from that.

          Hiring some actual Australian voice actors to play bogans who have to deal with the massive destruction of Taz would be a good set up. Guns are extremely rare in Straya so they would have to resort to complicated Roadrunner type schemes to capture or kill Taz from episode to episode. Then you could add in some animal characters like a kangaroo, a koala, a wieneratiel, etc. to fill out the cast, and give a separate element in the animal kingdom that faces Taz on a different scale from the humans. Still all australians, and taz is just taz.

        A good Taz series should be about both him and Marvin getting lost in time and how every episode is about them being sent to a different time era, where Marvin's attempts to return to their corrert era and Taz's general frickery end up shaping up Earth and Mars' history.
        The fall of Istambul? That was Taz's fault.

            Once Marvin has permanently destroyed what used to be a green and fertile planet full of life, he proudly returns to present Earth to see it's scorched corpse, only to find out that Earth looks the same as before and the planet he actually destroyed and turned into a red desert was Mars.

        The reason is that Alfonso and Ferguson were added onto the show by the executives at Disney TVA. In typical kid’s cartoon executive behavior, they felt that Marco needed some “friends” and so they were added. Im sure 90% of cartoon friend sidekicks are created this way.

        I dunno if it proves anything but its true that Alfonso and Ferguson only exist because the network told her that it was weird that Marco had no male friends; once the show gained traction she just ignored them for the rest of the show.

          First anon here. There's a few select ones that I liked, and I think they opened with one of, if not The strongest (the Curse of the Monkeybird). But so much of it feels restricted by the past instead of inspired by it. There's also an overreliance on unnecessary dialogue (and not too witty at that; Bugs is hit the hardest by this, but it's so criminal not to find a single quotable line in a Foggy cartoon). There's also a penchant for overtly predictable formulas, even for characters that rarely star solo and should be fair game to explore something different with (Marvin, Taz, Petunia, Yosemite Sam, etc). Even the animation, ostensibly the selling point, is affected by sitcom camera style angles that give these the feeling of bottle episodes. The characters just stand there like vaudeville comedians for so many of these...In calling attention to how fluid the animation can get now and then, they only reinforce how transparently limited by budget it is the rest of the time.
          It's not All bad and I've gotten my chuckles through the run, but it's just nowhere near as inspired in its ideas, nor as free flowing in its visuals, as the successor to the classics it claims itself to be.

          They kinda ruined Batman for me. TNBA turned him in a fricking butthole with no redeeming qualities and it’s a really terrible show with a few standout episodes, but more misses than hits. Superman TAS was unbelievably better than TNBA , it was obvious they were putting their A-game on that instead. Then JL/JLU is the same unlikeable jerk Batman from TNBA and even worse. A far cry from the early BTAS days. I don’t even recognize him as the same character.

          I hate when creators bash their own shit. No matter what you think about the finale product it is somebody’s favorite thing .

          There's a difference between Andrew Dobson refusing to admit his work has serious problems and Alec Guinness telling a young Star Wars fans not to watch those movies.

            McCarthy turned the equine cartoon into a generic series that had nothing to do with it's original roots. Plus she played favourites with the protagonist at everyone else's expense and added some cringy "hurt the orphan dragon" humour that had nothing of funny about it.
            She did better than Haber and Miller's era, though, but the movie she wrote was plain generic garbage.

        • 2 years ago
          Anonymous

          Seasons 6-7 were the Poochie seasons and the staff hated the backlash it received from more and more irate fans who complained about how Poochie Horse stole the spotlight from the protgonists and made them act like morons whenever she was on screen to shill herself as the new voice of reason, even if this was done at the cost of destroying the series' balance and worfing down everyone, including the laserhorse Princesses.
          Ask any fan with a working brain and he will say that the series made a fatal nosedive once Poochie was forced into the cast, and then ask them if they remember how some horse staffers like Jim Miller ranted on Twitter and openly claimed to not care if the new show direction made longtime fans feel depressed or dissapointed because they were all proud of what they were doing with the show, and if they disliked so much the new show direction, they all should just quit watching and stop complaining to the staff.
          This kind of internet meltdowns were usually followed by some walls of text and open letters trying to apply damage control, make some apologies and asking the fans to "please understand", only to repeat the same meltdown over and over and over again whenever the staff saw more and more negative feedback.
          I would say that until this day, the new horse show staff is still sore and mad because no matter what they did, the general consensus is that their era could never mesaure against that the original horse show staff did before they took over.

            Starlight was mostly fine. Her episodes were funny and the humour was on point. I can already tell you're the sort of twitter moron who religiously follows youtube analysts who b***hed and moaned that HOLY SHIT WHY HASN'T SHE RECEIVED MORE PUNISHMENT ACCORDING TO MY CHARTS THE LEVEL OF VILLAINY HERE IS 17% GREATER THAN THIS GUY.... and so on. Her episodes with Trixie were great. The show was always best when it was about the humour and her episodes provided that. Compare an episode like Hearth's warming tale or No Second prances to a pile of dogshit like Yakity-Sax, or any of the 'Daring do is real' episodes.

            As someone who fell off mid-S2 and since then has exclusively kept abreast of the plot through porn, is it worth going back and watching the later stuff a decade later or is it best to just leave it in the past?

            The best way to think about the show is that S1 and 2 are the most consistent in quality. The one bad episode (MMDW) garnered a massive, dark reputation, but if you go back now it's just kinda dull. It was such a bogeyman because it didn't fit the mold. Later seasons imo could experience genuinely better highs, but also mixed it up with worse lows. Season 3 is a mess of confusion as the show staff scramble to deal with the loss of Faust, Season 4 is them messing around and trying a bunch of different things only like half of which stick around, 5-7 feel like the setting feeling more rounded out and falling into a decent groove, 8-9 are mostly trash. Don't watch them.

            Tiny Toons took shots at pretty much every other big cartoon at the time - The Simpsons, TMNT, etc. Granted, they all fell flat, but it's not like it was JUST shitting on B&B and R&S

            According to Dan Povenmire, Bob Schooley, Bruce W Smith and Alex Hirsch, Walt Disney Pictures points Teacher's Pet failure at the box office as the main reason why they don't want Disney TVA to make theatrical movies when they pitched Kim Possible The Movie, The Proud Family Movie, Phineas And Ferb The Movie: AT2D and Weirdmaggedon as theatrical films.

            All I remember about this show is that the guy who did the designs also did the artwork for Cranium, a board game that was hot shit for a while

            Naka is kind of a credit stealing primadonna butthole that was a headache to work with and refuses to listen to others, hence why Balan Wonderworld turned out so shit. He was never good.

            Naka wasn't the only reason Balan Wonderworld was shit - Square Enix pulled a lot of bullshit behind the scenes as well. I'm not saying Naka is blameless, but treating him as the sole villain is a bit disingenuous.

              I know, but having the game based upon a single button and other baffling design decisions would made it inherently flawed to begin with and those all came from him no matter how SE promoted it.

      Radford Sechrist hated the constant notes at development at Dreamworks with Kipo And The Age Of The Wonderbeasts.

      Dreamworks wanted for Kipo to go to school to be more relatable with kids, the three seasons released are just 1 season in production order.

      Shiro was supposed to get killed on the real Season 1 Finale of Voltron Legendary Defender on production order that is E13 of Season 2, however Dreamworks told them that no beacuse the character became popular and that's where the real storyline for the actual S2 and S3 went down the toilet.

      Nate Stevenson had a gripe with Kyle on She-Ra for some reason

      ND said in an interview that Kyle existed to poke fun at "everymen" character who would have been the hero to find the sword in other stories.

      And they did it by...just shitting on the character and making everyone in the show hate him for no reason instead of being a clever deconstruction of the trope. Instead it just came off as the writers finding bullying/abuse funny. Which goes against the other message they were promoting.

      As if ND was insecure and paranoid of the fans liking Kyle and speculating with He-Man theories, and was afraid that Kyle could somehow steal Adora's place as the hero for some reason. It's really stupid.

    Most of the people who worked on CatDog hated it. Hillenburg and Drymon had Nick Studios employees who basically begged them to work on SpongeBob. Hannan had to scramble and beg people to work on CatDog, to the point that Drymon and Jennings went on to work on CatDog's first season before basically raiding the crew and taking Leichliter, Smart, Wiese and Tibbitt with them to produce SpongeBob.

      They ordered like 100 episodes of it over Spongebob, right?
      2000's Nick was fricking stupid. So many shows they either lost or ended early for no reason.

        Yes because at one point they seriously thought it would be their next big thing, not SpongeBob
        Makes sense tho. Nick always wanted a lighter more friendlier Ren and Stimpy they thought they were going to get that with Cat and Dog, since R&S had just ended.

        It's not like a company where everything is top down, it's more like different teams making very different products with passive supervision from big wigs. For the vastly different experience: Imagine if the director butts heads with censors or producers and things have to be changed last minute. That's extra work for everyone. Simple visual mistakes can go unnoticed until the tail end of a production and add more work, or even simple things like lead animators giving vague or contradictory instructions/comments/corrections can really slow everything down.
        The production flow is called a pipeline because you can't start working before the guy before you has done his job, meaning the more mistakes and frickups there are early on the more it will snowball and frick everything up by the time post production begins.
        >ex: you have to start a scene over because your animation lead gives odd comments
        >director overrides lead because they don't communicate and you have to redo the scene AGAIN
        >colorists can't start working on time
        >editor rips his hair out
        >if the episode doesn't air on time the studio gets fined into oblivion so crunch time it is, again

    > Tom Ruegger of Animaniacs fame described NBC's obscure Jokebook as "an unmitigated disaster"; at the time, he was working at the studio that made it, Hanna-Barbera, and while not directly involved, he had a front-row seat to witness the whole debacle. It was an animated Sketch Comedy conceived by a close friend of HB co-founder Joe Barbera, and described by the network as "a seven-part series featuring animated humor".
    >Problem was, this man, Harry Love, was a humorless old creep who lacked much experience or talent in stories. He rejected his peers' ideas for sketches, feeling that his own jokes were good enough, and flaunted his connections to Barbera. Additionally, the animation was originally so awful (even by the standards of that era) that NBC wouldn't touch it, but once much of the animation was fixed it became clear that Love's Dirty Old Man tendencies crept into the gags, which Ruegger described as "wheezy, lame and ancient one-panel sex jokes rejected by Playboy and other publications at least a decade before". NBC found many of them far too crass and inappropriate for broadcast, and HB had to fill the gaps left by the rejected sketches with student and independent animated films (among them being a bowdlerized version of Ted Petok's Academy Award winner The Crunch Bird).
    >At any rate, NBC had lost all faith in the project by this point, and dumped it in the Friday Night Death Slot right in the middle of the 1981-82 season against The Dukes of Hazzard and Benson, where it did so poorly that its second episode was dead last in the ratings among all shows aired that week, prompting NBC to pull the plug after just three of the planned seven episodes. Ruegger doubts that it would've lasted much longer even with better ratings, because so much of the original content was removed that it was hard for HB to find enough outside material for the three broadcast episodes, let alone seven.

        Not to mention that his characters looked the best in the late 40s, early 50s. After the UPA craze he decided to draw the characters too angular, he made Bugs and Daffy kind of ugly. Wile E was still well drawn but I still consider his first cartoon the definitive design (a caricature of Ken Harris, BTW).

            Jones worked with Daffy since 1938 and practically had the framework laid out for his version of the character by his first directed cartoon with the character in 1942 (picture related is his design; he drew Daffy with two toes instead of three).

            He was known for the "bedroom eyes" gimmick and the funny faces made tons of people laugh (because it was unexpected), but at some point he probably thought it was what made him GOOD, so he integrated it into his style. But it's hardly there before the late 50s.

    Not an exact case of hating what they worked on but rather a case of hating that they got screwed over.

    Tom Ruegger, the creative head of the original Tiny Toons and Animaniacs, in a recent podcast, revealed the story of the involvement of him and Paul Rugg (Animaniacs and Freakazoid writer) in Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures. Basically, they were hired by Avi Arad to develop the show. In the process the two produced a 50-ish page series bible building the world and containing enough premises and plot material for multiple seasons (this being why the two are listed as the show's developers in the series credits) while also writing the two-part premiere. They understood they were going to become producers and the story editors afterwards but were instead suddenly let go with pay once they finished work on the bible and first two episodes all thanks to a clause in their contracts. Tom called what went down "showbiz".

      If you know anything about Avi Arad or Haim Saban, you'd know that they basically equate to the Devil.

      >A classic Hollywood story involves Gene Simmons of Kiss. In the late ’90s, as co-owner of the Fox Family Channel, Saban was developing shows for children. Simmons, the fire-breathing, blood-spitting frontman of a rock band in costumes and face paint, pitched Saban an idea for a new Saturday-morning cartoon: Kiss meets X-Men, the Marvel comics superhero team. Saban liked the concept well enough to convene a meeting with Avi Arad, then C.E.O. of Marvel’s toy division.

      >At the appointed time, Saban, Arad, and Simmons sat down. The meeting was going well, and the three began to haggle over numbers. Then Saban turned to Arad and, referring to Simmons, confided in Hebrew, “Now we gut him like a fish.” Without missing a beat, Simmons—who, unbeknownst to Saban, was born Chaim Witz in Haifa, Israel—replied in Hebrew, “You butthole. I’m one of you.”

              That doesn't really change the story though, Naka wasn't accused of literally shutting down the game; what was said was that Naka suggested they ship the game and then liquidate the team, keeping the best guys. Its very possible Naka didn't even note the games name (because honestly "Geist Force" is pretty generic,), he just looked at footage, thought there was only a few things of note, and tossed an idea in. It was still enough to allegedly disillusion the team, though.

    • 2 years ago

      ND said in an interview that Kyle existed to poke fun at "everymen" character who would have been the hero to find the sword in other stories.

      And they did it by...just shitting on the character and making everyone in the show hate him for no reason instead of being a clever deconstruction of the trope. Instead it just came off as the writers finding bullying/abuse funny. Which goes against the other message they were promoting.

      As if ND was insecure and paranoid of the fans liking Kyle and speculating with He-Man theories, and was afraid that Kyle could somehow steal Adora's place as the hero for some reason. It's really stupid.

      Thanks for pulling Teachers Pet from the dark recesses of my mind. I remember this movie and it was shit. The art style was like CalArts before CalArts existed. Nobody liked it, it shouldn't have been drawn in that style, and there was no charm in any of the characters.

      Does anyone know how it even got a movie? What was the nepotism story behind it? I remember critics loving it because they put in "Micky Mouse easter eggs" (who cares?) and it had some selling quirk some of the critics rallied behind, like it was fully 2D animated musical or something. Again, who cares. It's awful compared to other Disney 2D musicals.

      It's one of those animated films that was pure pretentious poison to children, sort of like Animaniacs was to some kids. I knew no kid outside myself who watched it and it was deemed kind of cringe around my peers that even knew what it was.

Unfortunately Don Oriolo wanted the 2nd season to be like his dad's, which was a bland bootleg dimestore Mickey Mouse though Felix predated Mickey by almost a decade. Knowing full well that following Don's wishes would mean a boring as frick cartoon not to mention they were already under the pressure of the one-two punch from Fox Kids and Kids WB. Might as well go out with a bang and give Oriolo the highway salute too.

        If the show was for little girls, the staff should have never tried to bond with older fans. If the show tried to cater to older fans,then it should have never been treated as a show for little girls only.
        Nothing good ever comes when a show staff tries to get both things at once and then bounce back and forth from the "We love older fans" and "Frick older fans, this is a show for little girls" as Jim Miller was infamously capped more than once.
        It's either one or the another, but never both stances at once, and once you pick a stance, you die on that hill instead of changing horses at mid race.

            From what I remember, the adult fans liked the 200th episode and praised it's writing because it was vastly superior to anything the late series was churning out.
            Speaking about voice actors, the spiked dragon's VA hated the pseudo sequel (Horse Life) and outright refused to lend her voice to that series.

              /mlp/ is kind of the odd one out - the board showed overwhelming support because most people there actually understand what made the show popular in the first place oddly enough, but many on forums, etc thought it to be low-stakes and too revolved around the central core cast which i cant really wrap my head around

            Frick them i watched it one day while channel surfing and reminded me of the Early S1 days while the 100th episode reminded me of that shitty fananimation named as the first full fan-made episode.

            I remember that Larson on a Interview said that the 100th episode was going to be Amending Fences but Hasbro and the writting team told him to make a Brony centered episode of the BG characters.

              The 100th episode was half good (the main plot about 2 older characters getting married and the entire horse town rushing to finish the wedding preparations on time because the were sent with the wrong date was a genuinely good plot) but the crappy half was how the show staff tried to use fandom memes and fandom interpretation of background characters and tried to make it's own spin of them, fricking them up.
              Probably the most hated aspect was how one of the background horses was memed into a Tenth Doctor expy (the second season gave him a redesign to deliberatey make it look like David Tennant) and the current show staff changed him into a Doc Brown exply with a moronic voice, a moronic personality and the 11th Doctor's bowtie, completely missing the point of the meme they were trying to copy.
              For the record, the horse show got a manga adaptation that took the most popular horse memes and made them part of the manga, and the fandom basically agreed that the manga not just used them the right way but also created a product as enjoyable as the 2 first horse seasons, which were the most popular and beloved show seasons of G4.

            Source: my smelly butthole. Nobody disliked that episode. The biggest problem with the last two seasons was that almost all the episodes were fricking boring because the writers couldn't decide if they wanted to focus on the new students or keep the focus back on the MCs, so they just kind of half-assed both at the same time.

              The general consensus on the 200th episode was that the voice actors were practically the only ones who still could "get" the characters and that an episode pitched by them turned out better than anything the late seasons could do.
              Plus the visual gag with the book and the lock was legit funny.

                The 2 first seasons still hold fine after so long despite some problems that became evident after watching the newer seasons, like the crude original flash models looking a bit wonky or the coloring issues that gave the 2 first seasons a washed up feeling.
                I definitely would not reccomend you to wach the later seasons since they have a completey different feeling and a chaotic pace, as every team that handled it wanted to do it's own thing regardless of watever the previous team was trying to do, and as a result the series ended with a ton of loose ends and subplots that went nowhere and eventually were swept under the rug without any explanation.

          Indeed. But after G4 ended, the seemed to revert to the little girl audience, Pony Life was outright hated by bronies and they're neither hide nor hair of references to the brony fandom in G4. I personally blame the sheer about of degenerates and lolcows G4 spawned that cast a bad light on the series, for all intents and purposes the brony fandom is dead.

                That and about what happens when a new show staff takes over a series and rather than follow the formula that made the series beloved and popular, they decide to change everything tosuit their own ideas, add literally dozens of new characters to a series that was already overflowing with them and even force a literal Poochie to try to make her thr new protagonist leading her own set of new characters, as some massive secret emails leakage proved a few years ago.
                Bottom line: if you are planning to change a series to the point it doesn't look at all like it's original self anymore, you may as well resign and pitch a completely new cartoon to put your ideas and characters there.

                Leaked emails and documents revealed that when Josh Haber became the horse show's runner he was planning to turn his OC Starlight Glimmer into the new protagonist (and leading her own group of disciples) starting from season 07 onwards.
                That's why she was redeemed so abruptly at the end of season 05 and shilled so blatantly during season 06 and 07, at the expense of making the rest of characters (and the protagonists, to boot) behave like complete idiots so she could be seen as the voice of reason.
                Except that the intended audience (little girls, you know) hated her guts and her toys sould very poorly because even a little girl can tell when a moron is tampering with a show to sell you his crappy pet character, so Hasbro called quits on the original plan and from season 08 onwards, the horse staff reduced her number of episodes and screen time to try reducing the damage she caused, but it was too late.
                Haber's new plan (and some people says he did this out of spite) was introducing 6 young and diverse characters to force them into the new chosen ones to do the hero stuff.
                The new characters barely got any toys and the intended audience generally hated their guts as well.

                The pony butts looking the way as they did was just the result of creating more anatomically accurate flash models so they could have more articulation points and be easier to animate into realistic horse poses and horse walking cycles.
                The leaked emails, leaked show notes and leaked show bible had a funny bit about how one of the protagonists needed to be drawn with "more butt" to compensate for the way as her long mane covered her body and made it look unbalanced.

                If I remember correctly, Faust commented that even when she was a little girl she absolutely loathed the way as the original G1 horses had stumpy legs and a big, shapeless rump because the animators wanted to avoid drawing horse legs and horse butts the way as it should.

                Nah, I just they were a result of having an actual great artist design the characters. The ponies dont look horses, they have these Bambi faces to make them cute and curve big butts and thighs (like the kind women have) to make them look appealing, otherwise they would have ugly horse legs.
                Thats what made the show such a success, specially in its first two seasons, that they had a bunch of professional industry veterans working on the show, like Faust, Renzetti, and yes…Chris Savino, who I think is actually Trixie’s creator.

                Fosgitt's comics always have looked like ass no matter what character is he drawing.
                His time drawing for Marvel gave us nothing but terrible stories as he refuses to follow any character guides or even use any kind of references to make his art look like it's supposed to look, plus he's still infamous for stealing from fanstuff or using non commercial vectors for commercial purposes.
                His time as a horse artist was full of scandals involving stolen designs and crappyly added vectors badly resized and full of white artifacts crudely pasted on top of his "drawings".
                And he never bothered to draw backgrounds if he could avoid it, which was okay because whenever he bothered to draw any they never resembled how they looked like in the show.
                In fact, his drawings were so crappy and his lack of care was so great that one of the horse comic writers ragequit ever writing more horse stories because she was tired of seeing how that hack destroyed her stories with characters who didn't even remotely resembled their TV counterparts.

                I mean, dude. Alienating your readers is one thing, but pissing off one of your coworkers and making her quit is a different kind of low.

                The first season having a steam locomotive forcefully added to a train despite her attempts to not including it (the original pitch had a series of train cars pulled by horses) or a third magic princess (and pink, no less) being added without consulting her were just two examples of how Hasbro's meddling quickly took all the fun away from her job.

    In the late 40's, Jack Hannah was promoted as almost sole director of all Donald Duck cartoons. Thing is, by then he had written and animated for the character for a decade, so he was already jaded and had even grown to hate Don's voice by the time he was given almost full reigns to his cartoons. So he immediately set to relocate the spotlight to Chip n' Dale and other such vermin, while downplaying the presence of the character you were watching the short for to begin with.

    It was originally ordered as a standalone DC Super Hero Girls Film, later during the finished touches of production a CN executive demanded for TTGO! to be shoehorned to give it views.

      It's funny how each TTG Film appearence is worse then the last one.
      TTG Go to the Movies was shockingly good.
      TTG vs TT Mediocre and cheap.

    From what I remember none of the voice actors who were on Beast Machines liked their work on the show, with the sole exclusion of David Kaye. He liked monologuing as Megatron.

    I don't remember where I got this from so take it with a grain of salt

    Radford Sechrist hated the constant notes at development at Dreamworks with Kipo And The Age Of The Wonderbeasts.

    Dreamworks wanted for Kipo to go to school to be more relatable with kids, the three seasons released are just 1 season in production order.

    Beast Machines left such a bad impression story editor Marty Isenberg preferred not to talk about it or to be related to it. Anxious he was when he was offered to write for a new Transformers cartoon years later, because of it, that new cartoon did fine, tho.

    Bet Dan Didio slept like a baby following that.
