Howdy, Avocadoans! Welcome to the premiere edition of this (probably) weekly discussion of western animation! (Nothing against anime, but there are like 50,000 other places to talk about it, so let’s limit this to American/European cartoons.)
Potential topics to discuss:
- Star vs. the Forces of Evil — how do you feel about StarTom being a thing again? Was Tomco just a one-off fanservice? Is trans Marco just a pipe dream?
- Steven Universe — Lars is all pink now… what will Buck Dewey think? Where the hell has Jamie the Mailman been? Also, how great is it that a cartoon can have more than just a one-off same-sex relationship without it turning out to be just a joke?
- Teen Titans GO! — will Cartoon Network somehow be able to work in more than 169 paltry hours of reruns per week?
- DuckTales – Launchpad is Scrooge’s sugar baby, right? Why else would he keep that studly, accident-prone moron around?
- Big Hero 6: Baymax Returns – is this as godawful as the original movie was great?
- The Simpsons – will they ever let it be put out of its misery?
What else have you been watching? How have you enjoyed it?
