Unlike the "be open minded" and "love you for you" stuff cartoons usually teach kids, TTG actually teaches kids something they'll need later in life. Something that isn't some mindless dribble that hasn't been uselessly preached for decades
So far the kids of today know about >Rental property >Share economies >College debt >Equity >Pyramid Schemes >Stuff you'll need when you get old >The Gold Standard >The effects of computer piracy >The importance of labor >How holding on to ridiculous dreams is useless in the adult world
>All these threads of people trying to back up TTG suddenly Nobody even cares about the shit show anymore. It's ending.
Ethan Gutierrez
It's been renewed for a fifth season you fucking retards.
Chase Phillips
Sauce.
Jonathan Ross
>let's teach kids quadratic equations before they learn how to subtract
It doesn't work ike that user.
Julian Ramirez
This. If OP is correct, then it failed at what he claims to be a helpful thing for kids.
Colton Richardson
As someone who has seen most of these episodeswith them running in the background,half of these would go over kids heads.
Andrew Bell
>WAFFLES!!!!! XD
Ryan Stewart
>We shouldn't explain these things to kids and should instead focus on the usual tired old morals that have been used for over 60 years but have still never stuck
Juan Morales
Man, you guys are really hung up over one episode from the first season
Michael Myers
This. I constantly show my 9 year old brother Rick and Morty and Bojack Horseman because they tell it like it is. He meditates so much about them he hasn't slept for 2 days.
Jonathan Phillips
>0:03 What's up with this show and Robin's butt?
Nathan Turner
Cite said claim that it doesn't work. I'm one of those people that had seen PBS shows like Clifford and Book of Virtues and not end up a thug banging criminal. That also might had something to do with good parenting as well so there's another reason.
Andrew Green
Lol waffles xD
Grayson Stewart
It's a nice butt
Austin Butler
Haven't you done this thread before, multiple times?
Luis Green
Sauce or GTFO
Owen Gutierrez
Who the fuck doesn't know how to subtract?
Adam Garcia
a young child?
Brayden Perez
TTG does that as humor which just falls flat for me. I enjoy Gumball but it's "memetic" humor has been doing the same for me since it's Fourth Season. The shock value of "fedora-wearing neckbeards" was nice, but making entire episodes surrounding internet culture like Good Boy Points, YouTube Memes and Dehnald Drumpf is horrible. TTG isn't memetic but it's humor is weak, and as a comedy cartoon doesn't fare well.
1. Hasn't been renewed for 15 months. 2. What was announced is a Movie. No Fifth Season in sight.
Daniel Campbell
I just realized something. Teen Titans has more seasons than Teen Titans Go.
Jace Morgan
So does Johnny Test. AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

A fifth and sixth season are in development and the fifth season was officially announced in a press release. We're working on multiple seasons of Bunnicula and a bunch of Lego Movies as well.

You do know people from the industry browse here, right?
You do know that we see you every day making comments about our shows and movies right?
Just saying.
Gabriel Peterson
None of that stuff would actually be understood by kids, it sounds like a decent too for teenagers but no teens would watch this show because it looks like it's for dumb babies and they're too busy watching edgy anime.
Grayson Powell
I'm not saying these lessons will put you in prison. I'm saying that after 60 or so years of that "be yourself" or "judge what's on the inside" it's done nothing and won't make you successful in life, this however, can actually help you with something you'll actually need.
Jaxson Torres
My mom watched a kid explain equity to their mom. Just putting that out there

You like triple-q's art too?

Gavin Clark
I'm going to miss this show. Aside from the schedule (which wasn't it's fault) it was a harmless and enjoyable series.
Ian Evans
blackfire, please...
Julian Baker
I agree with you, but I just can't forgive what they did to robins character.
Elijah Turner
Personally, I think he's better than TT's Robin. He's nothing more than your generic edgy troubled badboy with a crush on one of the girls in the team leader. This Robin may not be great or developed, but he puts a lot of the tropes I hate to rest. Besides, this is just an exaggerated version of Robin's character anyways.
Charles Sullivan
Seriously the best ass in DC and you don't get the joke?
Wyatt Reed
It also teaches you how to be a massive tool.

John Williams
>be in elementary school >learning subtraction >a kid brings up square roots >be fascinated by it >teacher tells us we don't need to know/won't learn that until much later That teacher killed any interest in math I had right then and there. You should NEVER stop educating, if it's over their heads they'll remember learning it later in life.
Gabriel Sanchez
I don't read DC Comics.
Blake Reyes
But it's funny.
Angel Hughes
Minus Injustice I stopped after Final Crisis when every 2 years was some sorta reboot
Tyler Kelly

There's no one to blame but yourself.
Tyler Foster
Yeah, but as an educator you can never tell a learner they don't need to know something.
Xavier Morris
You could still give them a quick lesson on it and when you'll need it.

She's right, her goal is to teach you everything that you need to know for whatever standardize test. It's up to you whether you would want to learn it or not. I taught myself calculus when I was in algebra 1 because I was fascinated by it.
Matthew Fisher
Nah, this user is right . She should have explain to us what it was and when we would need to know it fully. I was only nine years old at the time.
Kevin Barnes
Fucking this. People actually think that morals about sharing and caring help when none of that shit matters if you grow up in a bad household. Parents who constantly fight (And in America, the majority do) will overpower any fictional story about loving yourself and will especially overpower any story about loving your family. And if you grow up in a good household, than those morals don't do shit anyway because you learn that from your parents.
Kids don't watch shit to be lectured, they get that from their parents and teachers. They watch shit the same reason as everyone else: escapism. Whether it's through humor or roleplay. A world where you get to go to school to be a wizard instead of doing math is a hell of a lot more appealing.
It's why shit like TTG, Minions, and Gumball got so popular to begin with: It's non-stop fast comedy for kids. Morals in stories are fine when they're implemented organically, but Adventure Time and Steven Universe basically have characters standing on soapboxes explaining the moral.
Kayden Morgan
>her goal is to teach you everything that you need to know for whatever standardize test. This is why schools churn out morons year after year. No reason to retain information if you know that you'll never use it after you've taken the test.
Jacob Ross
I'm going to miss this.
Anthony Powell
>Unlike the "be open minded" and "love you for you" stuff cartoons usually teach kids, TTG actually teaches kids something they'll need later in life You replaced a boring thing with a different but equally boring thing. Only this time, it'll be completely irrelevant to them until they're too old to be watching this garbage show. Great fucking job. Kids will totally remember all of this newfound knowledge 5 to 10 years from now, especially when they're not even currently able to utilize said knowledge.
Kevin Gutierrez
At-least they'll actually need it in life.
Xavier Lewis
...wait, what the fuck is going on? Weren't most of those things presented in the show to be "ironic", as a response to people criticizing the show for being mindless shitty garbage?
Isn't this entire show turning into "let's make an episode to respond to the criticism of neckbeards on the internet kids have no fucking clue who they even are because we're incredibly petty people with a huge timeslot every single day and we're running out of legitimate ideas"?
Why are we actually taking this seriously now? How many layers of irony are we on right now, i'm starting to get confused here.
Henry Torres
>Weren't most of those things presented in the show to be "ironic", as a response to people criticizing the show for being mindless shitty garbage? Nah, maybe the first time but not anymore. It's become a regular thing. >Isn't this entire show turning into "let's make an episode to respond to the criticism of neckbeards on the internet
>4/200 episodes= a whole series based on salt I think I found one of the autistic neckbeards this show keeps bashing.
Wyatt Perry
I hardly watch TTG, and I'm not watching it to check if OP's representing those particular episodes accurately. I'm just taking OP's word for it.
Dominic James
Are you joking right now or do you legitimately like the show and what's it's doing? What you just said doesn't make any sense, first you say the show is legitimately about informing kids, then in the same post you say the show just keeps bashing nerds.
There's contradictions in what you're saying all over the place, i think it's likely you're trying to be meta or something.
Julian Foster
>A show can't inform kids and bash nerds at the same time Are you trolling or just underaged?
Caleb Cooper
You need a course in developmental psy.
Firstly to correct things, the original user's point wasn't that you shouldn't teach anything, but that should you teach anything it has to be something the child can readily intellectually engage in. That's what stimulates learning.
Secondly visual analogy, because some people always need their mind lead to the river of ideas. Imagine a child needing help getting to the bottom of the stairs, and you decide instead of one step at a time to just shove them down. Well, they're at the bottom of the stairs, right? Problem solved. No.
There's a reason even teachers and adults who were sweet on you didn't just start busting out how to save money through discounts, tax, bulk purchase and shit. Even if you grasped the benefit of the simple idea of playing costs against your earnings you wouldn't grasp the logic of the intricacy of how and when until you're in the position to spend and earn. And no an allowance from your parents isn't remotely the same.
Anyone with the knowledge obviously understands the value of the lesson and learning it, it's just that most who are actually qualified to teach also understand that accumulated knowledge builds wisdom better than dumping advice out of reach.
YOU consider the lessons on values and morality sterile because you've already learned them through the curious habit of repeatedly returning to programming for children expecting something novel for adults, but what's really trite is the sort of people who say "you'll understand when you're older" after saying something beyond a listener's years, instead of gradually developing the intuition and skill in the child so they acquire the intuition to before the need.
It's also likely why people were once encouraged to lurk and google for themselves instead of being spoonfed, sometimes handing things to someone can impair their development, and seemingly their understanding of it.
Ethan Garcia
>Reddit spacing I just don't see myself agreeing with this. All of these simple lessons are something you should know and even then they still won't get you ahead in life since this is the real world. When was the last time you've ever built rental property from loving you for you?
Chase Green
>Morals in stories are fine when they're implemented organically, but Adventure Time and Steven Universe basically have characters standing on soapboxes explaining the moral. I cannot think of any time Adventure Time actually did this and I doubt you could either, that show does have organic lessons and morals when they aren't busy subverting those things for a laugh

Well fuck I had completely forgotten that was a thing, shit. Though given Jake's character I lean more toward that he was pulling that shit out his ass to justify his lazy behavior but it's not like kids watching could tell that so you got me.
Still though, AT usually avoids that from what I've seen.
