Disney I will never forget the good times

[Popadoo]

All I can say is at least the kids of this generation still have some decent shows on cartoon network.

And the HUB.
*Cough*
Anyway, I agree. The Disney channel is dreadful. Luckily we still have, as you said, Cartoon Network, and like I said, the HUB. Well, one show on the HUB anyway, the rest are average or below.

Im guessing your reffering to MLP:FIM? Dan VS is another show on the Hub which is just as awesome if not better that gets away with alot of adult humour I suggest checking it out.

OT: Disney hasnt really been my thing ever so I don't care that it gone down hill, the only show I have fond memories of is Recess and that was canceled years ago.

Thank you friend, I shall check it out. I love to expand my cartoon catalog!
OT (Again): They need more cartoons on the Disney channel again. It seems the 2D animation part of Disney has barely been active since Pixar came to be. They released, what, that Princess and the Frog thing a little while ago? Why don't they work on awesome TV shows instead of films that will only get over-shadowed by Pixar?

I hate TV executives. I really do. I honestly don't think they know what "quality TV" is, relying mainly on sub-par cartoons and stupid tweenie-pop. I feel sorry for this generation's kids...

I'm sorry that complaint is like saying "Simpsons sucks, I mean the people are all yellow." It's kind of missing the point of their movies. I'll give you a hint, it's the writing. Writing that has been praised by almost every critic for 11 of their 12 films. Of course this'll be the part where you tell me critical success doesn't mean anything because that's just a bunch of people's opinions and then likely give me your opinion as to why the writing is shit. You'll ignore the irony and I'll probably ignore you. Go team internet!

No this is the part were I tell you their writing is shit also.

All their films lack any emotional value because everything always works out in the best way for all the good people in the majority of their endings. there is no sense that any characters had any sort of struggle or challenge because you know no matter what happens Wall-e is gonna come back to life, or X person is not really injured etc etc.

Pixar needs to learn that a movie can have a happy ending without having everyone be super fantastic.

The Borrower Arrietty was a better fill then most Pixar films because it had a happy end yet it wasn't THE BEST end that could have happened.

A story doesn't need to end at all tragically to be well-written.

And maybe you've ignored a few things, like how the ants in A Bug's Life seem to have a food shortage or how Andy has been shown to have given up every last one of his toys in Toy Story 3, despite how attached he was to them. Then, there's how Lightning McQueen came in last place at the end of Cars. Ironically, these films are... what was you you just said?

Well, guess what? Pixar films are ending in the way you are praising and not in the way you somehow make believe they are.

I think I've made my point.

....did you miss the end of fucking ALL of their movies? Finding Nemo - Nemos mom is still dead. Ratatouille - they still lose the restaraunt. Up - Carls wife is still dead, and now he's freaking homeless. Wall-E - earth is still a shithole. Toy Story 3 - THAT!

Also very excellent points.

Yeah this is a farewell to the good times Disney and me had when the shows were actually good. That so Raven even Hannah Montanna. The shows that shown that both authority figures and kids can be trolls all while teaching kids the pressures of the world. Pressures like prejudice and bullying. Now shows on Disney seem to take a nose dive to pure ridiculous comedy that you no longer want to laugh but feel sorry for those who get the short end of the joke. And even some of the shows now seem so watered down because they try to be too family friendly. All I can say is at least the kids of this generation still have some decent shows on cartoon network.

I personally think Disney Channel shows have gone down in quality the second the first sitcom started, though when I say sitcom I mean the type of shows with a couple cheap looking sets and always are filmed from one side. I mean, what happened to shows like Even Stevens, Lizzy McGuire, The Famous Jet Jackson, So Weird?

The reason why is cause Disney is trying to conform to the modern views of "Family Friendly" shows. Like how spanking use to be considered as discipline is now considered abuse. Much likely what use to be funny is now frowned upon.

I kinda agree with you there was almost no good Disney shows I can call to memory outside Recess and Gargoyles at least this is my opinion.
