Clarence
the 1st one is boring shit
the 2nd one is actually funny and entertaining
Was the plot similar or different?
CotC has been running so long and has more episodes than Clarence so I lost track of its episodes.
In CotC the relationship between JP (the boy) and Maney (the girl) starts as a one-sided crush on her part before getting an episode where she confesses her feelings to him and catches feelings for her. Later on they have a few moments where she literally says he makes her heart race, but there are also boundaries like her not wanting to slow dance right then at a get-together (OP picrel). Then there are just moments where they're enjoying each other's company and he indulges her horse autism in his own way by larping as a car.
By contrast Clarence had a single episode on it where the girl gets egged on to ask Clarence out, he's a bit put off by it but says yes. Sumo then feeds him a bunch of 80s dating tips and he absolutely botches the whole thing. The both of them decide that being friends is probably for the better and they have a good time dicking around outside instead of being on a dinner date.
tl;dr, kids can handle being in stable relationships vs kids should just be friends and focus on that shit later
Heh, "stable".
Why do so many shows focus on children dating?
for 90% of the population having a few "girlfriends" in middle school is actually pretty reasonable
You did not have a girlfriend i middle school. You knew a girl who was adjacent to your click.
This is true for white and east Asian children. Middleschoolers of other ethnicities have already "been around the block" a few times by that age, and would preparing for imminent parenthood (or in the case of many males, how to dodge any commitment once the offspring has been birthed).
hence why i had the quotes homie
Clarence, its always Clarence
Clarence did it better
CotC doesn't take crushes beyond just that: crushes. I don't know what Clarence does.
It has at least one established relationship, you're right about the others though, lots of shipbait.
I've said this before But Clarence is what your childhood is actually like. Craig of the Creek is the idealized Childhood we wish we had. Clarence kids are messy, dumb, don't get relationships and don't care. The characters are like tiny adults. JP and Maney cartoonishly have they dynamic of an old married couple, Kelsey and Sticks are like starcrossed lovers. Craig and Wildernessa are the closest to feeling like a couple of kids considering Wildernessa's being mean to him solely because she likes him.
That's a fair assessment, Clarence's premise seems like an amalgambof the crew's experiences at a young age. I think Craig's crew more or less stated it was a sandbox, a sounding board for different ideas that might be outside of their age range. Like you said, mini adults.
Skylar Page said Clarence was basically his childhood but funnier. Like there's obvious embellishment but yeah they're great at hiding little childhood shit. Like if you're the same age as the writers you can probably see your own fricking toys.
>Mfw battle damage T-Rex in the background
>But Clarence is what your childhood is actually like
Lol Clarence is an obnoxious poor filthy fat kid with a lisp and the cute wholesome girl in class likes him.. because she just does! So realistic!
>completely made all that up based on nothing
You're probably wrong about other things in your life because your assumptions anon. You should assume less.
I've met poor filth fat kids with speech impediments that get by just by being incredibly charismatic. Which Clarence is. The problem is when you let those things weigh you down. Girls respond much more to confidence than status. Clarence gets the party started. People like hanging out with him.
Good point, like a chubby dopey social butterfly.
My hottest Cinemaphile take is that I don't think this type of shit should be done in children's cartoons with characters under the age of like 13. It legitimately fricks little kids up more then most think.
Whichever one portrays the boy as wanting to appear rich and shower his crush with shitty gifts and one day just waking up and both of you mutually shrug and separate without drama after the honeymoon week passes cause that's how mine went.
Regardless of which has the better portrayal of such things, Maney's the better pick of the two for a number of reasons.
