Edgy Braceface or Pepper Ann might be cool

Teen Titans

Megas XLR.

Also Mission Hill and Clone High but I know that will never happen

>Kim debates whether to activate Ron's Trap Card

>reboot Kappa Mikey on Adult Swim
>17+ age rating lets it actually parody shit about anime and western cartoons instead of just being a generic animated sitcom

You know, in retrospect that show seriously lacked visual gags playing on the differences between typical western and eastern art styles

Oh god, wasn't that already dark enough with Robin's melodrama over Slade? Plus Raven's arching story? I swear those 3 need to get their own show far away from the rest of the case because they're scarying the children.

Invader Zim
but it'll never happen. EVER.

I still don't understand why the writers kept pushing for Starfire/Robin and not Raven/Robin, they're both dark and serious. Starfire should have hanged out with the goofballs, Cyborg and Beast Boy.

Raven is gay user

Samurai Jack isn't even getting a reboot though, it's a continuation.

I mean I don't even want it to be edgy or anything but being on [as] is the only realistic way it's going to happen. Unless Netflix pulls a miracle

Why doesn't US government sell Megas IP ? It's not like it has any value to American taxpayer if they don't do anything with it

lmao what the hell

whats that gif from

some people would say ed edd n eddy highschool

Only correct answers ITT

Steven Universe

Pic related would be hilarious. It would be unexpected and completely uncalled for, everyone would be wondering what the fuck just hit them.

How would that work? Maybe somebody could pitch it?

then we completely missed out on a potential robin/starfire/raven love triangle?

how the hell did we miss that. Starfire wouldn't even pick up on there being a problem until a few months in.

I know that's you, Jhonen.
Go to bed.

It wouldn't work on adult swim, the reason it was good because the writing and visuals blended so well, it would become family Guy tier with a higher rating because there's now a reason to dum it down which never works

...

How do you reboot shameless fetish-fuel as something more adult?

That swirl looks familiar.

...

I'm more scared of breasts than I was two seconds ago congratz

Go more into softcore porn and have actual violence

Grim Adventures

>Jackie
>Chan
>Adventures

Ah yes that's what's missing on as, soft core murderporn

>How do you reboot shameless fetish-fuel as something more adult?
Spunky Knight got rebooted as Punky Knight. Read the two and find out.

Admittedly Punky Knight didn't have the bonus chapter death and mummification by eternal cobbler elf didlo rape.

Man, I miss the good old days of hentai.

>galactic KID next doors
>on ADULT swim

Blue's clues

What AS is missing is

AQUA

TEEN

HUNGER

FORCE

Jonny Quest
We're overdue.

This time with even more terrible CGI and graphic deaths.

I need context.

I want proper closure for SBT more than I want extra seasons of SJ

There's shows which were already gritty and over the line like Samurai Jack, Generator Rex, Invader Zim, Courage the Cowardly Dog and they only needed that extra rating raised higher to allow for blood, but we all know what happens when blood, death, violence isn't handled in a mature manner.... you get Disney DC's disgusting horrid Batman movies... where Batman is a fucking vampire.
We already had plenty of mature cartoons intended for older audiences like Oban Star Racers, Wakfu, Tron Uprising, MTV Spiderman, Symbionic Titan, The Roswell Conspiracies, Men In Black.


I think it's the more kiddy shows which require a swift kick in the balls to wake up the testosterone which really deserve to be pandered to mature adults.
For example pic related, or anything by goddamn Marathon ends up being made for children just like Jackie Chan Adventures.

I'd love a Martin Mystery, Team Galaxy or even Inspector Gadget focused on an adult audience and not the immature way either.

>not wanting awesome bloc bumpers where the GKND "take back" Adult swim

Close but not quite on the target my naive friend.

NO...

What Adultswim is missing is....

The AQUABATS in cartoon form.

>MTV Spider-man
Why would you tell me about this?

Atomic Betty was some good stuff.

My Life as a Teenage Robot

We need a drawfag... we need a comic book of the adultswim logo getting horribly raped by every children's cartoon on the planet after noticing that Samurai Jack got a free pass.

And we need said "Children's cartoons"" making every show on adultswim cry back to their mother in pain. (well except for Venture Bros, that's actually a good show)

Martin Mystery was fairly mature what with the incest angle and everything

you know what you did

You steal from Russian identity thieves with ironically terrible web security one fucking time...

His stepsister was also his wife/girlfriend in the comics. Hence why the sexual tension somehow stayed.

>Tron Uprising
I'M STILL MAD DISNEY, YOU CANCEL IT FOR THE FUCKING MOVIE THEN TOMORROWLAND TURNS OUT TO BE SHIT AND YOU CANCEL THE FUCKING MOVIE. FUCK YOU DISNEY, FUCK YOU!

Hey Generator Rex was mature too with having a 16 year old mixed race hitting on a white 28 year old scientist.

Yeah no Marathon is still the laughing stock when it comes to animating serious cartoons aimed for young adults.

We're all mad user

Always and forever

Why everyone keep calling Samurai Jack a reboot when it's continuation of the original series, it's not even a soft reboot like nuPPG that use elements of the old series an expect kids to get it

I always thought Danny Phantom would be infinitely improved with some more teeth.

I didn't care so much that Beck didn't get his final confrontation with Clu (he would have gotten royally raped) I'm pissed off more for the fact they completely murdered the budget, timeslots and marketing in favor of Star Wars.

The original original Tron Uprising was suppose to have 3D CGI animation which looks exactly like 2D, much more 2D than even Paperman, Poet Anderson and 1 more animation with a mail delivery man.

youtube.com/watch?v=AmdieHtgAjc

and I normally don't get insanely pissed off with mongering vendetta for 10 years unless it's something really important. You see... they have the technology, they've had it since 2012, but they refuse to put it to use and release it to the public. So instead of animations worthy of the year 2017... we're still stuck with 2002 looking Flash animation ala Invader Zim.

They could have changed the industry and raised the bar if they allowed for Uprising to keep the budget seen in the very first trailer.

Same deal with 1 specific horse show... it induced everyone into a drug-induced high frenzy, more weird and happy than watching Harry Potter for the first time. Even the sanest of us got caught. The idiots instead of helping to flesh it out more and study what made everyone so charmed by it... and change the industry, they instead fired the creative artist behind it who worked her magic on their insufferable hopeless IP everyone scorned. And her husband is still a gigantic ignorant jerk to me for never letting her direct her own show despite having tons of connections to help her out properly, not just for a crummy second grade job and a position in the credits. Oh and Craig still can't lay off the goofy shit antics. What I liked about the redhead's writing style is that there's absolutely no goofyness, every character has standards and feels self respectful, the atmosphere isn't awkward like it was in Foster's Home. Guess that's the beauty of feminity.

Geendy is planning on finishing it. CN wrote it off but I think he will try to find a way to reverse it.
He has unused scripts so they should be put to good use.

Carmen Sandiego

tell us what this gif is now

believe it or not Revan was supposed end up with Cyborg at first

This show was so dark at times that the executives tried to sabotage the dark and gritty mood by adding goofy sound effects, even to the point of mandating 2 entire episodes about zombie bunnies, 1 clutzy unlucky girl and a circus benny hill theme to match.

Rex was too good for CN. What I don't understand is how come some shows like Batman and Samurai Jack manage to escape the executive bullshit while others like Symbionic Titan... get cancelled.

What's even more annoying is when you can't tell if it was the executive doing it or if the creator got drunk and okayed some retarded script meant to be a funny slice of life.

That's just racist

Stevdn Universe. Just so it can finally crossover with Rick and Morty.

Gargoyles with greg behind it,

>what other cartoons could use a reboot on adultswim?

I'd like to see a more adult take on TMNT. The closest we got was the 2003 show, which was pretty great until it went full autist and became fast forward. It could go the same route as Samurai Jack: stay true to what it is but just get a bit more tense and bloody.

>Invader Zim
Part of me thinks 'YES!!' but then I remember what happened when Ren & Stimpy got free reign to be more "adult". Invader Zim would probably fall into the same clusterfuck of trying wayyyy too hard to be gross and edgy if it wasn't aimed at kids anymore. Like Ren & Stimpy it is perfect with the original "edginess" it had, and adding anymore would probably ruin it.

This tbqh. And Swatkats.

...

What? Where did you get this?

>Invader Zim would probably fall into the same clusterfuck of trying wayyyy too hard to be gross and edgy if it wasn't aimed at kids anymore. Like Ren & Stimpy it is perfect with the original "edginess" it had, and adding anymore would probably ruin it.
They wouldn't have to add any edginess to it, and I doubt they would even add any.

That sounds fucking awful

KND being innately childish while still telling secret agent stories was its whole charm.

The comic doesn't go crazy with edginess and it doesn't have to worry about TV censorship anymore. So if the cartoon did come back(it wont) it wouldn't have the Ren & Stimpy problem.

Someone better finish those MH animatics.

>while others like Symbionic Titan... get cancelled.
>What's even more annoying is when you can't tell if it was the executive doing it or if the creator got drunk and okayed some retarded script meant to be a funny slice of life.
I can tell you that Sym-Bionic Titan had people butting heads behind the scenes.

>Wired: It’s safe to say you’re out of it now. But let’s go back to the massively underrated Titan. What the hell happened?

>Tartakovsky: Cartoon Network bought into the show for one reason, and when they got it, their mind changed on what they wanted the show to be. I sold it as an action show combined with a John Hughes comedy. Teenage issues and characters with amazing action, and that’s what they bought. But as we started making it, they were making Ben 10 and Generator Rex, and they wanted it to be that. And there was no way I was going to make that type of show. So they didn’t really push or support the show, we didn’t get a toy license, and that was it. It didn’t get numbers because they didn’t promote it the right way, and we didn’t get the audience that we really needed.

the tick

Lauren didn't get fired. She got tired of the direction the show was heading in, and she got tired of the working conditions. The decisions that influenced her departure were made before the whole phenomenon caught fire. (Remember that by the time season 1 was airing, they were already working on season 2, at which point her involvement was already reduced.)

She also has her own stuff going on, so there's no need to bash Craig about that. It's not his fault that Sony shitcanned her Medusa project.

>Kim Possible

Since it doesn't have to be CN shows...

Daria, about her college years.
As Told by Ginger, about the rest of her high school years and maybe beyond that.

amazon

Just because it's on AS, it doesn't mean it has to be inherently mature, or gory. I think the edge can easily be balanced with the nature of the old show.

I think Swatkats would be the perfect AS show to revive. The creators want it, the 90's nostalgia audience is there, and the show's vibe of "healthy" edge fits like a glove with the block.

SWAT Kats would be fine. I'd like to see more funny animal shows in general, really. You would think the whole underground comix feel that Williams Street wants to cultivate would give us something similar.

What would a Kim Possible AS show be like?

Grrl Power Archer.

Gumball

>Tron Uprising was the realest shit
>Never to be seen again because XD was garbage and now there's the Marvel properties dominating the "boys" and "adult" demographics
I don't have a scab to peel off anymore, I think that wound has mostly healed.. I'm just itching the scars.

>Revan was supposed end up with Cyborg

Not surprising after the car episode.

>Kappa Mikey
>HEY GUYS REMEMBER DRAGONBALL?
>HEY GUYS REMEMBER POKEMON?
HEY GUYS REMEMBER THAT ONE SHOW WITH A SEXY GIRL IN IT THAT WE DIDN'T ACTUALLY WATCH?
>THESE ARE THE ONLY SERIES WE KNOW. PLEASE LAUGH WITH US.

No thank you.

LET THE MAN COOK

This. Anime parody shows have a deep well of untapped potential but they're always made by casuals who only watched about two or three shows.

Look i think the concept of Kappa Mikey was okay, but the execution was horrible, making just shitty anime reference, i can't even call it a sitcom and sometimes i feel that it would be better if Mikey was classic toon instead of the flash animation cartoon that way like the japanese people do the anime gaga, Mikey then could have toon gag abilities to contrast

Sonic Underground

Are you joking? If not I demand your remixed adult version premise. What would you do?

I just want to see the last couple of episodes finished and some on screen deaths.

Forget the waifu bait for a second and hear me out. Set it a year or two in the future, maybe now as a senior in high school.

>violence becomes more severe, higher quality, minor gore, etc. Fighting animation is improved.
>vigilantism as a theme becomes more pronounced with understanding that her crime-fighting causes pain, violence, destruction
>Expanded emphasis on metaphysical question on what it means to be an AI; is she human, is she deserving of punishment, respect, are her emotions real. Identity crisis more severe.
>high school drama is less kitschy, childish. >Fitting in becomes an issue with sexuality becoming a prominent theme. Not fucking fan service though, done well and by provoking thought
>Sexuality, maturity and immortality are the driving forces that divide her from her classmates, not dumb stuff like "hurr bully the robot"

I swear it could work. Teen drama done well, from a mature, contemporary perspective. Mix in a little bladerunner, superhero tensions, I think it would be great!

SPEAK ON THIS GIF NOW!!!!!

That's what it was originally supposed to be

God Ilana is so fucking perfect

If [AS] agrees maybe Ilana and Lance can finally do good old-fashioned teenage meeting in a biblical sense.

Possibly akin to a less godawful CW Kim Possible mixed with some of the cynicism of Daria.

The story of a girl cynicysm-ing her way through high school under the watchful eyes of a mysterious government agency, occasionally kicking ass and taking names.

That sounds like an unfunny version of Kill la Kill.
