Toons
There's some cartoons on broadcast TV that I like. Teen Titans, The Batman, and Xiaolin Showdown are good animation-wise. Pokémon used to be completely mysterious to me, but now I get it, at least as far as an American adult probably can (I'm sort of like an adult - I'm old enough anyway). The animation isn't that great, but there is a bizarre sort of charm to the whole thing. Pokémon and Xiaolin Showdown both create a universe that is focused on a fanciful convention (the Pokémon creatures or the Shen Gong Wu), and that's all anyone cares about. Also, the villians are like other kids who just cause trouble, and sometimes they even team up with the good guys and they all play together for a while. It's a long way from Wally Gator, I can tell you. (OK, I know what you're thinking -- sheesh, get a life dude!) I will. Next commercial, I promise.
