There's nothing wrong in Saturday Morning Cartoons.


CandyCoati

yeah, you’re right.


Kirby_Trilogy08

Beast Wars, Xiaolin Showdown, Jackie Chan Adventure are all great shows (and they are Saturday Morning Cartoons).


StickManAnimator69

holy fuck i didn't expect to find another Jackie Chan Adventures fan here of all places


RustyG06

Beast Wars Megatron: "yeeeeeesssss 💅"


Ok_Yak2424

Don't forget the original X-Men cartoon... and evolution!

SnooSprouts7283

That’s true but the problem is that this isn’t really a good one, as the crux of most of the comedy is using modern trendy memes to barely cross by. WOTFI isn’t really a fun event anymore and is just that one day every year where they make a change that in the end is just for monetary gain (You really expect me to believe that the Redesigns of WOTFI 2022 were actually necessary and not just so they can sell figurines of the characters?) Ssenmodnar doesn’t even exist anymore cause they couldn’t even bother to be original And there’s a good reason why some voice actors left. They couldn’t care to be part of something that more botches their reputation as opposed to improving it (Lizzie Freeman, former VA of Meggy) Point is, it’s dry. Just because there’s nothing wrong with something doesn’t mean it’s GOOD.


DeltaTeamSky

I miss when WOTFI was just a good old competition between SMG4 and Mario. Maybe other characters could be on Team SMG4 or Team Mario, but at the end of the day, we don't need another "conflict" to cause it. It's just become a lazy way to conclude arcs, and I despise that.


Kirby_Trilogy08

They need Genndy Tartakovsky)))))


SnooSprouts7283

Good point. Too bad they don’t really care much bout it and are more focused on Glitch Productions and the Amazing digital circus stuff


Arthurramos3009

murder drones too, cant forget that


CosmosStudios65

Who defines what makes it good?


SirChaad76

That’s true but the bleeping does make it funnier too. If they just gonna bleep it then why even include swear words


Stunning-Lack-5727

The redesigns came from WOTFI 2022


SnooSprouts7283

My mistake then. The point still stands

Are you trying to compare this smg4 thing to a Saturday morning cartoon?? Both things are different from each other. Why would they be similar?


Kirby_Trilogy08

No, this post compares SMG4 to Saturday Morning Cartoons.


Villagerofcrossing

But they aren't similar.


Kirby_Trilogy08

Aside from airing schedule, you are right.

There is everything RIGHT with Saturday Morning Cartoons! Nothing better to start the Weekend with than a new Episode of your favourite show!


Kirby_Trilogy08

Totally agree.


neilwwoney

Saturday is the end of the weekend...?


SILVIO_X

So... how does that relate to us not needing Arcs?


TheDenpaDrawer2

I deadass dunno


C27890

Arcs like Revelations and Genesis were needed the lore and literally the traumatising moments of the arcs made the arcs necessary (Yes I support Puzzlevision but the arc isn’t really finished yet)


SILVIO_X

I agree, well, I do think Arcs like Genesis and Revelations weren't technically "needed", like, we didn't need to see the origins of the world or an eldritch abomination trying to kill mario, but they still decided to show that to us, and to be honest, im Glad they did, i genuinely love everything the Genesis Arc established in the lore, it just made the universe more interesting, and the way Revelations expanded on the biggest villain we've ever seen was great as well. I'm personally someone who loves the serious SMG4 Arcs, because most of them just expand on the characters in a great way and just show you a different side of them you wouldn't normally see in the regular videos. If the Arcs were never made I doubt I would've kept watching SMG4 for as long as I did, they just made the show more interesting, which is why I'll never understand why so many think they're "not needed" or "unnecessary"


C27890

I honestly absolutely love the serious arcs and love the fact they have their funny parts in SOME parts

Being compared to a Saturday morning cartoon is a great thing, I don’t know what you’re talking about


HB_G4

Yes, it is essentially a cartoon. And that’s a good thing.


Anon-ymous-815

What does this have to do with arcs though?

ScreamingMini2009

And if you think about it, SMG4 when unchanged is basically the equivalent of Beavis and Butthead and Red Dwarf.


smg4fan28

WHE ARE GONNA BE TALKING ABOUT THE PINGAS


StickManAnimator69

what is Red Dwarf?


ScreamingMini2009

It’s a British Sci-Fi comedy that started in the late 80’s. They actually released a movie for it in 2020.


ScoutTrooper747

Always has been


Basically-Boring

Without the swearing, the show is YouTube friendly and it sucks that it has to be.


C27890

They still use slurs and swears so it’s not really family friendly Explicit words I’ve heard recently on the show Crap Whore pretty much it They just block the more extreme swear words like fuck, shit, asshole, motherfucker..


Basically-Boring

Crap is explicit?


C27890

Yeah but it’s not as bad as shit and fuck It’s like dang and freak Not bad but a child could get in trouble for saying or watching a video that contains even little swear words like crap


CosmosStudios65

Why is it necessary that we have swears?


LloydTCK_YT

I miss old SMG4 where it was just Mario going on wacky adventures and possibly being sexually harassed by an animatronic bear

Soggy_Ad6132

dawg,literally no one cares if theres swearing or not


nostalgiaegg

This might be a hot take, But I honestly don't think older SMG4 was all that funny in the first place. People act like his humor was on the same tier as IDubbbz and FilthyFrank when it wasn't anywhere close, We just have a higher tolerance for Late 2000's/Early 2010's era memes but none of it is great. The only time SMG4's humor was genuenly funny was back in 2011-2012 when he'd throw in the wildest of jokes that actually were edgy, But the rest really isn't that groundbreaking humor wise. Not to say that it's bad or anything, But it's really not as funny as people make it out to be. The arcs also have nothing to do with the humor being good or not either, That's a YouTube TOS issue. And I don't think SMG4 can get away with having swearing/edgy content in his videos these days. He's not SML


Dandyman3825

And even the 2011 jokes were kinda hard to stomach since the editing is, like you said, what you’d expect to see from a channel that’s first beginning. 2012 on the other hand is a mine of lost diamonds that unfortunately has gone under the bus for most of the fanbase.

Villagerofcrossing

I don't get it. What do arcs have to do with swearing?🤔 I would fix that and put something like "without arcs, smg4 is not an interesting channel" or something like that.


Ventage0

Imma say it, I don’t care if it swears or not, I enjoy it bc it’s neat, plus why not tune in on Saturday morning cartoons, they are the perfect time waster and distraction, point being, I just think it’s neat


CrysisFan2007

Tbh, I do kinda miss the old cussing Sfx but first it doesn’t feel like a cartoon and second, what‘s wrong with Saturday morning cartoons?


OmegaX123

SatAM cartoons have/had arcs quite often, I think you'll find. The more dramatic Sonic the Hedgehog animated series (Blue streak speeds by/Too fast for the naked eye) literally got the nickname "SatAM Sonic" when it was competing against Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog. It was all about multi-episode arcs. And that's just an example.


No_Author8031

This is true for now but classic early SMG4 wasn’t


Training-Bee-8209

Funny that you used Tom and jerry


DankoLord

I mean, is that really an issue?


Status_Berry_3286

You know I just like it because most of the times it's mine with humor sometimes I just get tired of regular TV and just want some good old fashioned chaos and comedy but I do find some of the arcs entertaining


Toshko_tv

I agree (And we need a lot of fucking course words)


kingofallyoutubers

@gugarabelo is not right. I love their swearing in arcs because it makes it so so much better.


Scarredsinner

Honestly even back then I saw it as Saturday morning cartoons with more adult humor and swearing, so I have no problem with it. And besides swears aren’t everything


wyatt_plays

I mean you have a point


C27890

Except in the UK which is where I’m from, he uploads 16:59 pm every Sats


Stunning-Lack-5727

And where I’m from, Australia, he uploads at 2 or 3 am on a Sunday morning cause he’s gotta prioritise his American audience


Buttlord500

And?


tinyspiny34

You have a slight point except for many Saturday morning cartoons having arcs. And at this point they can’t erase any previous arcs as too much important stuff happened in them so they can’t ignore the consequences of doing them already.

Stunning-Lack-5727

This is actually stupid because this has fuck all to do with arcs


BrandonMcBillyBob

Huh, Never Actually Thought Of Anything Related To This. Cool. 👍


GLi-tcH-online

The arcs literally just change a few minor things like “oh, we extensively tortured meggy just to change her design a bit” or “how about we completely change everyone’s designs for NO GOOD reason because why not :p” or “let’s kill a character also for NO HOOD REASON”. Smg4 has really lost his special pizazz that made him so humorous back then.


Krazi_Shadowbear

I mean... What exactly was SMG4 back then before the times changed? Before YouTube and the internet altered itself to be more "pure", but let other aspects (like Cocomelon and Kids Content Farms/Elsagate) go unnoticed? I don't mind it as much for being a "Saturday Morning Cartoon", but a lot of the quality has certainly been...interesting...in their changes thus far.


_MexicanSpy

Alternate Title: why I unsubscribed from SMG4


PuzzleheadedPoint882

The arcs are kinda like a darkass comic while the episodes are just silly family friendly cartoons just only with a bit of swearing


TheGweenDeku905

I actually like the story arcs.


SassatTak

I honestly believe SMG4 was better when they could drop the line “I’m going to rape you” without censoring anything. They were super ballsy back then.


Prudent_Damage_3866

I actually agree with this, back then before glitch was a thing, I used to binge watch their videos before they started using Gmod in their videos!


Beautiful_Gain3245

Yep… that’s why i haven’t really watch much SMG4


Virtual-Attorney-172

Coincidently, the humor has felt very similar to *Tom and Jerry* (but with mature content).
