Context? XD

Amazon’s The Boys Season 2 spoiler
 
Stormfront to Homelander: You spent 273 million dollars on that “Saving America” crap and I’m running circles around you with five guys on a laptop churning out MEMES.
 
Yeah. Stormfront’s written for somebody.

@Sparx  
One year anniversary of Nostalgia Critic’s The Wall, which may be one of the worst things to ever happen to humanity

@Holofan4life
 
It pretty much is. It’s just another volume of the light novel like the rest, but this time was made into a movie.

 
 
so does this make doom less vain or more vain for not wanting to be called out by a man in no pants?

@TheHappySpaceman  
There are many mature shows out there like Better Call Saul which fits those requirements and many dumb kids show that don’t

@TheHappySpaceman  
Look at all that straw.
 
Another shit tum-tum take right there.

@Commune  
i’m pretty sure this is referring to animated shows.

@Angrybrony  
Most of which are made…for kids.

@TheSupremePatriarch  
and better then most adult animation because they all want to be family guy.

@Angrybrony  
Oh, so we’re just talking western animation here? That’s a pretty low blow.
 
Sometimes I just want to laugh and I don’t find most of that kid humor funny.

 
god, i love comic books. you can’t get a cosmic power t rex protecting earth from aliens with it’s cosmic breath anywhere else.

@Angrybrony  
You can have them in books and radio drama.
 
Except you don’t see the image, you’re imagining it.

@TheSupremePatriarch  

 
Not even in MLP:FIM?
 
There’s good kid/family-shows, and good adult shows, but I think I kinda agree with the others, too many adult shows try to be more like “edgy, vulgar, teenager” shows. I like poopy humor & adult content sometimes, but if overdone it can be annoying, and it is possible to be funny without being vulgar/sexual/political, and such.  
Groucho Marx was the king of insult-comedy, and he could hilariously insult anyone without uttering one cuss word.

I kinda like how some kid/family shows sometimes get “crap past the radar.” Sometimes subtle-adult humor in a family show can be more shocking/funny then blatant adult stuff.
 
Like say the Daring Doo pillow joke in MLP:FIM, or some risqué jokes in old cartoons.

@Beau Skunky  
The adult cartoons I like usually end up getting prematurely cancelled.

@Dex Stewart  
Same… :(

@Beau Skunky  
 
This one breaks my heart the most.  
At least the people behind it went on to do Sonic Boom and the Sonic movie.

@Dex Stewart  
Haven’t ever heard of that one oddly, but I admit I do like Sanik.
 
I hate to admit it, but I liked the Napoleon Dynamite cartoon sitcom, shame it was short-lived.

@Beau Skunky  
I watched the Napoleon Dynamite cartoon,but I wasn’t big into the movie,so I probably wasn’t the audience.  
I did like one joke from that show, Napoleon tells Pedro(I think that was his name)“All my life you’ve taken things from me.” Then they show Napoleon as a baby, and Pedro Yanks the pacifier out of his mouth,to which he responds,“Wah” in his monotone.

@Dex Stewart  
Yeah, the humor was a bit dry at times, but it was a nice change of pace.
 
I think I like Napoleon, because he reminds me of my older brother.  
“Are you drinking 1% milk, because you think you’re fat? Because you’re not fat, you could drink whole milk if you wanted.”  
(My brother sometimes gives people awkward comments/compliments like that.)

@Beau Skunky  
I don’t think Fox is a good place for any cartoon that isn’t a sitcom.

@Angrybrony  
That’s Conan the Barbarian a man who gets respect just by people who look his face
