Mighty Magiswords (2015)
DEFINITELY the WORST cartoon show on CN
I feel slightly guilty for trashing someone else's art, because that's definitely not my style, but as a 33 year old die-hard loyal Cartoon Network fan, as well as the mother of a bright 6 year old boy, i feel BETRAYED by Cartoon Network's decision to green-light this piece of garbage. GARBAGE!!!
The character design is HIDEOUS!! The premise is idiotic, but worse yet, TERRIBLY EXECUTED. The characters themselves are boring. The voice acting is decent, but the voices are SO INCREDIBLY ANNOYING! I literally cannot believe that there are so many annoying sounding characters on this show!! This is the cartoon equivalent of candy corn. Aesthetically displeasing, cheap, and toxic!
Somehow, my son likes it, even though he knows I can't stand it. We have agreed to respect each other's wishes, so he doesn't force me to watch it and I don't forbid him from watching it, but every time we watch cartoon network, we are BOMBARDED by so many ads for this terrible show!! The bombardment is inescapable! I downloaded the cartoon network app and was again bombarded with adds for the world's worst cartoon show ever!!
I would give the show 0 stars if it were possible.
Teen Titans Go! (2013)
Underrated and Over-Hated!!
I'm going to share my unpopular opinion now. I was a fan of the original teen titans show, which I LOVED!!! I watched it in my early 20's. Now I'm a 33 year old mom with a 6 year old son, and guess what?
I EFFING LOVE TEEN TITANS GO!!!
Yes, REALLY!! It's fecking awesome! but you know what? I love it for EXACTLY WHAT IT IS, and I don't hate on it just because it's not the original. I feel like that is a major point of contention with people who hate this show. Another reason I suspect that people hate on it is because of how frequently it airs. That is more cartoon network's fault than anything.
Why do I like it? 1. the writing is clever as feck 2. though slapstick is abundant, it's well done and clever 3. so many references to other characters in the dc universe. i LOVE the pictures of Harvey 2face and Alfred in the backgrounds. super great! 4. The characters make fun of each other, the show makes fun of the characters, the show makes fun of itself! 5. The show even makes reference to the haters who hate it and why!! 6. The songs are great (raven's "mean what you say" song with the throwback to school house rock was brilliant!) 7. LADY LEGASUS 8. Did they hint at a slight attraction between Raven and Rose? I think they did!!! Taking a page out of Steven Universe and I LOVE IT! 9. Robin keeps acting like a butt-head and keeps getting shut down by Starfire!! They handle this unrequited love dynamic in a hilarious way. 10. THE CHARACTERS ARE ALL AWESOME! Main characters, supporting characters, the hive crew, all fabulous!!
And that's all off the top of my head! I'm sure I could think of more if I really dedicated some time.
