Damn it. I really like this show too. I know Milo Murphy's Law and Hamster and Gretel never got the same hit of popularity as Phineas and Ferb did, but I don't think a new season ten years later is going to be that amazing either. I just don't trust shows returning nowadays, even if the people who were part of the original run are working on it. But, who knows. Maybe it's just a season for the summer, and it won't be that bad.
I never got super into Phineas and Ferb, but every single episode that I have seen of it has followed exactly the same plot points, down to the letter. I don't get how you make an interesting show like that. But I guess a lot of people do in fact like it.
With good writing and funny jokes. Also banger songs. It's hard to explain why a show like this works. I suppose everything just aligned itself perfectly to catch this lightning in a bottle. It's probably why I think making another season now is not going to have the same success as it did before. Oh well. I can still rewatch the other seasons, specials, and movie; I'll still enjoy them.
Speaking of which, this was also posted by Jeff "Swampy" Marsh on Instagram apparently...
It works because it's comedy and the jokes land more often than not. That's it. Plots are there give context for the jokes and not much else so being formulaic and predictable isn't a hindrance of what's going on. The show does plays with expectations and occasionally does somewhat serious plots but really just punch of goofy jokes about the topic of the day with consistent characters and breezy and family friendly tone with occasional dark comedy around Doofensmirz.
Those social issues must have been very subtle...unless he's referring that Isabella being Jewish and Hispanic and Baljeet being from India are the social issues. Which I don't remember them dealing with any inequalities compared to their white friends.
But what is the sexuality of Perry the Platypus?
He hasn't had any love interests so who the fuck knows? You have more material to make him a tranny than say anything about his love life. He's most important relationships are Phineas and Ferb who he considers his family and Dr Doof his nemesis/best friend. He's clearly super busy with his double life as pet and a secret agent so...
I was being facetious, but thankyou XD
While I have not seen much of H&G (it’s clearly aimed at a younger audience than the others are), there was actually a controversial episode of Milo Murphy for the opposite reason, Milo helped his favorite action star pretend to be a woman to star in the female reboot of his original series. It was obviously harmless, yet the usual suspects got expectedly angry about it.
My thing is why does every character have to have a love interest otherwise these people will label them as a closet gay or asexual? Im starting to be convinced that the same people who complained about every character being in a relationship only did so to give them the asexual/aromantic label. Not every character a creator creates has to have their sexuality or gender in mind in the show.
Hell, Jnco Jeans were all the rage once that shit came out, and I've only ever seen white people wear them and other "parachute pants"-like jeans.
What I don't understand about this is why can't they just re-release these movies in theaters like studio Ghibli does it? It's a better cost cutting measure and is respectful to those who worked on those films.
Because they don't have "deleted" scenes to shoehorn back in for a Diamond Edition or whatever the fuck they wanted to call it like they did for Lion King like a decade ago.
kinda yeah, his design is based in technical limitations and minstrel look (which itself was in no small part based in technical limitations of lighting and legal limitations of territories just flat-out not allowing blacks to perform)
tbh I'm not sure how much Ghibli cuts even by the storyboard phase
Biblically, this guy is basically known as the Righteous Slayer of Race Traitors. Numbers 25, all of it.
I think he's been fixed
