Topic	Have you ever wanted religion in myyyy sat.am cartoons?
Lokarin 11/15/23 6:25:46 PM #26:	ParanoidObsessive posted... Are we talking about the same Disney? The one that merchandises the ever living s* out of pretty much everything they've ever made? And even besides that, toy sales still play a role in cartoons today (for the worse). Shows like Young Justice got cancelled because they didn't sell toys. Teen Titans got replaced by Teen Titans Go! because of the perception that aiming for a younger demographic would up the likelihood of them buying merch (same with the 2011 Thundercats reboot). It's possible to sell shows based on art/writing over merch, but quality shows cost money, and merch is one of the major ways to offset that cost. So without merch sales you're likely to get a lot more corner-cutting from the cartoons you do get. Am I the Gen X'er here, what the hell shows are you talking about? I was talking about the death of the morning cartoon with stuff like The DIsney Afternoon, then Rugrats. Yes there were toys for them, but nothing compared to GI Joe, Dino Riders, Transformers, etc --- "Salt cures Everything!"
