  • You would hate The Amazing World of Gumball then: an overwhelmingly absurd sitcom marketed towards kids despite being awful and inappropriate for younger children.

    Since it raked in the ratings like all the other young adult shows on the network also being marketed towards kids, I’m not surprised.

    One episode had Gumball and Darwin taking over a medical procedure on two balloons and blaming one of them for being ungrateful as soon as the victim realizes what he just did and then the whole episode just cuts out.

    And that’s how I stopped watching Cartoon Network despite watching other shows that should’ve been filtered from the lineup.

    Cartoon Network was originally known for classic cartoons like from Warner Bros. or Hanna Barbera and other good shows, not young adult sitcoms made for children.



  • Pardon me, but…Have You Played Atari Today?

    Atari is a company still making hardware and software that I like to play on like the VCS.

    There are other brands too, like Evercade, Polymega, Analouge, and the Playdate.

    And then all the other older consoles like from the usual Nintendo and Sega are still being supported by unofficial software developers.

    So the retro gaming scene is pretty active compared to the modern gaming scene.
