Western Animation - Discuss American, Canadian, and European cartoons here (or just bitch about wokeshit, I guess)

Turns out I had it mislabeled in my image folder, google says it's from Uncle Grandpa. I almost forgot that show ever existed. I think they made fun of the PPG reboot at one point so I guess this makes sense.
Ah yeah that's much more likely to be real then. It's not so much making fun of SU as it is a reference, the two teams got on pretty well as evidenced by the crossover "Say Uncle". The actual show is funnier than you might think.

 
I saw part of the SU crossover and it was genuinely really funny.
"Uncle Grandpa, I don't think this is safe"
"Don't worry kid, I'm wearin' a helmet"

As a random spergy bit of bonus trivia, Uncle Grandpa telling Steven to polish his gem a couple times a year is a huge clue to the fact that Rose Quartz is Pink Diamond. Diamonds need polishing that amount of times per year, Rose Quartzes don't require polishing at all.

You can never win the “woke” game, because even if your show manages to be really well written and “woke”, people will still find reasons to cancel you over the most inane shit, because they have to prove that they’re more “woke” than you.
Case in point:
Found some of the Tweets about this and the comments are filled with black separatists seething at the concept of inter-racial dating like they're white racists from the 1950s. The horseshoe is real.
 
Speaking of Cartoon Network...

The news came out today that the live-action PPG series for the CW is being retooled. Evidently the pilot did not go over well...

And why? Well, somebody leaked the script. This is a Twitter thread of highlights.

If this is legit, this is exactly what I expected this to be.

Why it's a reboot of something beloved taking a big whopping gorrilaton shit on the original that everyone will go back to enjoying to erase the memory of watching their "superior" version! Cheese and fucking crackers, and they wonder why they failed.

The Cartoon Cartoons were made specifically to get away from the glorified toy commercials of old (made in part by Hanna-Barbara, the CC creators' mentors) and to prove cartoons can be more art than just marketing tools. I'm all but certain McCracken doesn't care anymore since he ended PPG on his terms and moved on but fuck me running does this make me want to dawn a MOTI top hat.

Forgive the doublepost but some rando said it got copyright claimed thus proving it was real. I looked at the original leaker's tweets and look what's there now.

Yikes, no wonder it's being re-written
 
There were a lot of people saying "It was fake!" this morning.

It feels nice to be vindicated, don't it?

Now if someone will leak the pilot...
It's not the kind of vindication I'd want. Also if I were going to make a fake leak what better way to give it fake credibility than also to do a fake DMCA? Still it's looking like this is actually legit. I still hope it isn't though.

This cannot be stressed enough; Craig McCracken has made it clear that PPG is something he did in the past and that he wants to move on.
It got to the point he tried to steer conversation about the CW show to Kid Cosmic. And who can blame him really?
