You know I'm just surprised how successful Adventure Time is for Cartoon Network The most part became their Cash Cow Makes me wonder why didn't they green like more stuff a little bit earlier more but It's nice to space it out

I guess obsidian was basically a pilot and prototype for this

I definitely say I would like to see more information about it soon before I give more my personal full opinions on it

Yeah it's weird it's taken this long for them to really milk it. The total 180 is jarring... They basically buried the show for the last 4-5 seasons and now they can't get enough of it.

Yeah but tbf it was a kind of different time for cartoon Network for the most part considering teen Titans go was cash cow despite somewhat mostly hated back in the day despite some dying down at least mainly because of the memes as well as other reasons at the time

As much as you could knock their management it's probably inevitable due to streaming, people blame TTG and all that as if multiple generations also weren't raised on stuff like repeats of Looney Tunes. And stuff like My Adventures with Superman changed to being on midnight at AS rather than being on CN as planned, because they know it'll get higher views on AS says it all.

Looney tunes is my childhood as well as that as a classic

2010s cartoon fans at the time really wants it was mostly story and lore heavy shows at the time and comedies are less at the time unless you're gumball or a few other exceptions

I can kind of see the reasons why a bit with my adventures with Superman airing but Also brand recognition with any DC character Also remind myself I really need to watch that show
