>girl show with dudebro humor
>good animation made in flash
>new spin on a shit concept
who hype?
>>80236004
I hype, bro.
I hype.
It's good to see nickelodeon getting a bevy of new shows recently.
>no source
>just picked one of the worst pilots out of that batch
>shittier made up name
Nice thread OP!!! fuck you
>>80236004
i saw this ages ago and forgot about it
i remember not liking it much
>>80236004
Dude, it's DOA shit.
>>80236004
>girl show with dudebro humor.
Which only works if the characters are even remotely likable.
>good animation made in flash.
This is genderbent Breadwinners. Aka not good.
>new spin on a shit concept.
Only thing I can give to you, and just barely.
However, I don't think girls can pull off the "two guys" type of comedy (Beavis and Butthead, SpongeBob and Patrick, Mordecai and Rigby, Finn and Jake sometimes, The Angry Beavers, etc.) well- you need a lot of skilled rapport back and forth for that.
Single character comedy just requires intelligence (such as Daria, girls can do it just fine) and three man comedy is moreso focused on character interaction and doesn't rely on gender. (Using the formula of Leader, Follower, and Straight man, we have stuff like EEnE, FOP, PPG, SBFF, and Three Stooges running the gambit of gender match ups.
At first glance it doesn't really look all too appealing but I'm not one to dismiss something instantly like that. We'll see how it turns out when it airs
>nickelodeon
Oh boy, it's not looking well already.
>>80236085
no lie, this is one of the heavier shorts on the nick forums stated its trying to get picked up as a series
>>80236004
>dudebro humor
What does that even mean?
Humor you'd expect from guys?
Humor that mocks dudebros?
>tfw you want to pitch a cartoon to Nick just so they can have a single worthwhile show
>>80236730
I assume it's another name for "those two guys" type of comedy- where the humor stems from the two of them going back and forth.
Beavis and Butthead, Regular Show, Angry Beavers, Pickle and Peanut, Robot and Monster, Robotomy, SpongeBob sometimes, Ren and Stimpy, Cow and Chicken, I Am Weasel, and so on and so on.
>>80236004
I mean for fucks sake even 2 Broke Girls did this better and that show sucks.
Rapport is EVERYTHING in this character setup. Pid and Sam have barely any (and the amount they do manage is drowned out by constant talking and noise!)
>>80236730
bathroom jokes
>>80236004
>good animation
>made in flash
Pick one.
Even FUCKING CONAN manages to do this correctly with what's his face.
>>80236004
Those are the least appealing female character designs I have ever seen.
WHERE'S THE PORN SIMON?
>>80236004
What were they thinking? None of those characters are fappable.
>>80237715
then you havent been in /co/ long enough
just give it time
>>80236004
Yeah, fuck this shit.
Now, the next video in the queue, The Tall Tales of Urchin, has much more potential. Just thicken the borders, dull the palette slightly, and you'd have something solid. >>80236004

>>80238073
Pretty sure WoY isn't made in flash.
>>80236004
>Me watch through the Nick shorts a couple weeks ago
Wow, this short is the worst of the bunch. Probably won't get picked up.
>Sees this thread
... No... Those monsters! Is there not a single sane person left at Nick!?
>>80236776
I was actually going to pitch them a short for this year's program just for the fuck of it.
I then decided against it, because I don't want anything I've created to be in Viacom's filthy shit-coated hands.
>>80238224
Pretty sure it is.
Reminds me a lot of Kablaam's humor/90s cartoon shorts
I actually like it
>>80238224
It isnt (it's made in Toon Boom) but it still animated in the same tween style as flash shows are animated in. If the Croods animator from that one thread is correct, same thing is true for Peabody.
>>80237923
To cover the others...
Duckmanboy is just,,, not good. Not awful, but just... eugh.
Feebs and Mr Timmins.
>snore
Woodchips- Definitely has potential. Voice acting, character design, and backgrounds are all pretty solid. Feels very much like an answer to Gravity Falls, whether that's good or not.
Werebeast- Ehh, not exactly my groove, but it honestly looks pretty okay.
>Jo Minkus
>Ice Station Zedonk
Pulp cartoons through and through. That's not a bad thing mind you, but it's very early 2000's feel.
Ziptronik Megablast- well, it's pretty. A bit less silly and might have something pretty okay.
Meat Pie is just crass enough for me to fall in love.
So basically Nick and Viacom are retards for picking the worst of the bunch for consideration.

Jesus. The fact that shit like Breadwinners and this garbage is getting greenlit, while fun stuff like Tall Tales of Urchin and Meat Pie and solid material like Woodchips and Werebeast are all passed over for some garbage named The Cupcakery of Doom... which is at Sonic fanfic level of art. Fuck. Nickelodeon is actually trying to kill itself, isn't it?
>>80236004

I imagine when this premieres, there's going to be a big premiere hot tub party at the Nick Hotel, and it's all looks like a giant outhouse, and the hot tub looks just like a toliet
>>80240928
It was...something.
I don't know if I'll watch it.
>>80240040
I've noticed these networks and studios are very shy of pitches with large story arcs. They just want merchandising ideas. Somewhere along the line, they deluded themselves into worrying about that stuff before they even have good show that can engage viewers and make that merchandising worthwhile.
>>80236004
Why is Nickelodeon full of furfaggots?
>>80240928
Okay holy shit this needs to slow down for three seconds.
I can deal with the ugly girls, I can deal with the toilet humor, but it's like The Mighty B! snorted a line of coke.
>>80236004
was this animated by the same animators that did Breadwinners? it just gives off that vibe to me
>>80236004
Yeah I remember that short and it was fucking GARBAGE. Holy shit. The only joke is literally in the title and they just say it over and over and over and over.
It's like a stupid throw away cartoon you'd expect to see playing on a TV in the background of another also stupid cartoon.
>>80236004
>toilet humor
>shitty hartmann tier artstyle
I've never even heard of this and I already hate it.
>>80236004
This is exactly how I would imagine a content creator with remedial knowledge over concept in making a kids show.
>>80240040
>Nickelodeon is actually trying to kill itself, isn't it?
If they are, they're not doing it quick enough.

Quit samefagging and let it die you fucking sperg, noone cares about this shit.
Inb4 shooped screenshot, the IP counter hasn't moved the last 5 hours.
Speaking of Nick treating their shows like garbage, there's a new Harvey Beaks tonight right?
>>80249135
Cry moar faggot :^)
>>80249135
>bumping a thread you want to die
Nice job!
>>80249220
There's a thread up for it
>>80236004
>>80240928
Oh god. It's Breadwinners all over again.

>I don't think girls can pull off the "two guys" type of comedy
We'll wait for the effects, it's just a new thing for a "girl character" because I never saw an cartoon with two girls as main characters.
>>80249552
Yeah... if Breadwinners wasn't cancelled, I can totally see a crossover between these two series
>>80250993
>#1 rated show
>cancelled in less than a year
how?
>>80251092
Uh... I think a better question is, "Breadwinners was the #1 rated show on Nickelodeon?"
>>80251213
>Breadwinners was the #1 rated show on Nickelodeon?
Just ask some kid who watch Nick everyday.
>>80238073
Literally none of these was made with Flash
>>80251312
Hm... and even kids these days don't think Spongebob is any good?
>>80238073
You could have used Motorcity you know.
>>80237631
it isn't impossible for something with good animation to be made in flash. The program is nothing more than a tool. But when you bring a budget and all into something, they're more likely to use the shortcut features.
>>80237631
Flash is a tool, if you screw up a birdhouse, do you blame the hammer?
>>80252962
>if you screw up a birdhouse, do you blame the hammer?
This could work as a slogan for the human race.
>>80239569
>Duckmanboy is just,,, not good. Not awful, but just... eugh.
I don't liked Duckmanboy too.
>>80236004
They look like the Beagle Boys from Ducktales.
>>80236004
>Pilot was garbage and everyone predicted it was not going to be picked up
JUUUUUST
>>80236004
Why the hell are they flesh colored?
>>80236004
So what, is this Nick's 3rd attempt at regular show?
They just don't fucking get it.
>>80240928
This is fucking awful
Wow, we're at the point where you can just reference Justin Bieber like it ain't no thang aren't we?
>>80236654
>However, I don't think girls can pull off the "two guys" type of comedy
For live action reference, look at Broad City. It can work. These shows get inspiration from live action comedies anyway, like Regular Show inspired by Mighty Boosh.
