I dare you to find another TV Show that feels like you're watching an animated movie.
It did have millions and actual talent pumped into it.
What do you even mean? The animation quality? The pacing?
0. The soundtrack
1. Extended scenes with a lot more dialogue and body language. The complete opposite of rushed.
Somehow Green Eggs n Ham manages to be better than other serialized shows like Willy Fog despite the fact each episode of GenH is also only 21 minutes long, yet it actually has that theatrical release atmosphere. Everything feels much more full, creative, etc. it doesn't feel dull and overly simplified.
You sound like you don't know quite what you're talking about. I'm guessing you mean character animation?
There's been a lot of well animated shows like Rescue Rangers which felt nothing like a theatrical release. I know exactly what I'm talking about with the soundtrack and extended scenes, stop questioning me.
But you keep saying "feel like" and your definition of that is ... longer scenes and better animation?
I really liked Green Eggs and Ham. A major component for why it feels like a movie is because this series was initially pitched as a hand-drawn feature over ten years ago. Eventually one of the suits suggested a TV series and so it shifted from there.
I do agree with these too. The "slow" pacing, focused character moments, David Newman's score, and three-act structure of the entire season really do give it that filmic quality that you normally don't see TV shows prioritize. TV shows, especially serialized ones- used to suffer from segmentation in a way that the streaming format has sidestepped entirely.
I think audiences were just relieved that the crew made a decent Green Eggs and Ham series (which many thought was a terrible idea) that exceeded expectations. I think the John Hughes-esque take on Seuss works for the story they tried to tell, even if it does feel a little watered-down.
>TV shows, especially serialized ones- used to suffer from segmentation in a way that the streaming format has sidestepped entirely.
I disagree. I think segmentation still tends to be present in the streaming era, especially in shows with arcs that feel like more was planned than what was shown.
No one, not a single person, watched season 2. Season 1 wasn't even that popular. By all means GEAH was an absolute failure of a show and a complete waste of money for Warner Bros to make, basically guaranteeing there will never be any shows like this ever again. Happy?
Yes >:) let the world burn, as long as I have my precious it's all good. I don't care to discuss it. I only care to be a hipster who slaps you with my big green eggs and ham every time you dare say Adventure Time is a good show.

Whoever is in quality control for Jim Henson works need a raise. I feel like I can always rely on it these days for quality interpretations.
In terms of the dark crystal sure.
>us 2022-1916=x years.
Elaborate this to mee. im not good at this high math.
If you're talking about how each season was basically one big episode split into bits, Kipo did this too, each episode began and ended connected to the adjacent episodes, nothing was self-contained.
Also Sym-Bionic Titan and some other shows I can't think of right now; either way, there's a few out there.
If you mean the quality, ehhh, GE&H is overrated, 99% of the visual and animation quality is in the first episode; after that it's just lightly sprinkled throughout the series.
Even if the show was a pure 10/10 across the board, you can't compare it against other shows in general because the dang thing's budget was absolutely bonkers anyway, literally the most expensive cartoon ever made in terms of cost per episode, IIRC.
Not to say it's a bad show, it's just vastly overrated, mainly by people fawning over one actor or another, or just watched the first episode and then reviewed the whole show based on that.
Also I'm kinda mad season 1 was so light on the actual Seuss wackiness in the various designs for stuff, it could've easily passed for Earth half the time.
>you want to do WHAT with my wiener?
I was a little shocked they had that line in there
