Here's PPG's attempt at the "No Me Gusta" face, which looks more like something out of anti-semetic propaganda:

The more they try to pander to the internet, the harder they fail.

That's such an ugly face.

The PPG shouldn't have visible noses.

Bubbles is the last character who should be making that face.

So I caught up with all of the episodes of Bob's Burgers. It took me about a month to get through 101 episodes.
I really liked it. At first, I enjoyed it, but around the second season, it really clicked for me, and even got better around the third.
Some of my favorite episodes were, in no particular order, "Burgerboss" "Broadcast Wagstaff School News" "Hamburger Dinner Theater" "Full Bars" "Hawk and Chick" "Presto Tina-o" "Spaghetti Western and Meatballs" "The Frond Files" " Weekend at Mort's" "The Equestrianauts" "Seaplane!" "Tina Tailor Soldier Spy" "Wag the Hog" "Mutiny on the Windbreaker" "Speakeasy Rider" "Sliding Bobs" and "the Hauntening"

Let's be frank here, no one should be making that face. That it's Bubbles doing it makes it even worse.

That is sad.

Anyone remember that one film called We're Back? It was pretty trippy. A dinosaur eats a cereal from an alien which turns the dinosaur into a "good" dino(basically give them an exaggerated human personality), NYPD chasing down dinosaurs, and a circus whose sole purpose is to scare people,etc. Other than that, it had a forgetable storyline.

The basic classic template of all cartoon animals!

Pretty much, I believe that was the second of only three feature films that came out of the London-based Amblimation (the other two were An American Tail II and Balto).

I vaguely remember seeing that film when holed up at a hospital one time when I was younger. Only thing I remembered from it at that time was a scene where Rex encounters some parade balloons.

Well, at least we got Balto out of that studio.

And rapes the Spidy balloon.

That was a good one. I once had an animation drawing from Jeff Verab from the film, a rough drawing of the titual pooch as he was jumping along a fense before the race to determine who'll get to be in the race to pick up the serum.

I see they got Eric Goldberg to give us a bit of what animation should be before going back to the staleness that is The Simpsons.

Well, it looks like Chinese-banked, American-animated "Rock Dog" isn't dead in the water (yet), and will be coming out this summer over in China (international distribution and dates unknown at this point).

Here's the new trailer.

EDIT: If it came to that, it would be interesting if it fell into the same mess The Little Prince got through here in the US where a major studio was all set to release it, then pulled out a week before it was supposed to hit theatres, then it was just shat out on Netflix anyway.

I'm really starting to get into Archer. It might be my most favorite western toon to watch right now, and it's not even that well animated.

It looks like Goldberg animated the end bit with Bart laughing too. I mean it too looks higher quality than the rest of the show these days.

I bet, and this is what The Simpsons needs. I would love to do an episode this way if I had the chance.

I've been watching Be Cool Scooby Doo lately. The focus on humor makes it feel more... it feels like they got Seth MacFarlane in to make it, but told him to keep it kid-friendly and not rely on cutaway gags or pop culture. It kinda reminds me of early Family Guy.

I watched that episode tonight, and boy was that intro more beautiful seeing it in HD!

I know the first season of Family Guy showed potential. I liked it when Stewie was played as a pastiche of a typical James Bond villain.

I bet. You could press your face on the screen and soak it in!

That's really cute! I wouldn't mind a whole episode in this style tbh.
