why educative cartoons are not relevant anymore?
>>83153378
Because things like anime are already educational as it would viewers about Japanese culture.
>>83154907
has there been any news about that new Magic School-bus series?
>>83157325
I think the idea was canned.
>>83153378
Too hard to sell merchandise through it?
>>83153378
those were some good cartoons
sure they were educational but some actual effort was put into them
>>83158377
most cartoons don't even need merchandise, as long as they keep up the ratings they are good
>>83153378
I feel i was embiggened by educative cartoons.

Upgraded version of Once Upon a Time... Life coming for 2017.
Meanwhile, I'm letting you with some nostalgic songs:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f-7gRm3zPbc
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FoC-sV1KmXAWhat kind of intro is that? YOU'RE GONNA DIE! YOU'RE ALL GONNA DIE!! THE PLANET IS GONNA EXPLODE AND PEOPLE WILL GET INCINERATED BY THE LAST DEPARTING SHUTTLE'S EXHAUST VENTS!!!!
>>83158772
well those shows did not hold their punches
the one about the human body had the balls to end with the human all the characters were in dying

Between those shows and C'est Pas Sorcier, it was great growing up on french educational TV.
>>83153378
I liked these shows.
But the space show was more space adventure than real education, I think.
>>83158695
>embiggened
>>83158772
I only liked the ones about the inventors
>>83158857
And they linked the show with the others in the last episode with his son going into space to join Omega, and an humanoid cameo.
It was really pretty well made, compared to shows that don't try to do more than the minimal effort.
>>83159301
It has aged better than the others.
You didn't like the one with the explorers?
>>83153378
Wild Kratts comes to mind.
>>83160567
the explorers wasn't aired in my country as much as the inventors did. from the explorers I think I only remember episode with the chinese
>>83153378
Because it encourages heteronormativity in children and it is bad.
>>83153378
Watch PBS on the weekend.

Sorry i posted it in the wrong thread.
>>83153378
Becaue, with kids today, wha you need is educational apps, not cartoons
Because execs realised it didn't fucking work.
>>83158994
That remind me to try their youtube channel, they are doing new things apparently.
>>83161251
>sesame street and cartoons for toddlers who can't count pass 10
haha, no
>>83158772
I miss this show, but I don't remember any of the content. Being a French Canadian I think it was airing on Radio-Canada or Télé-Québec, but I don't remember well enough.
I started watching episode 1 of "Il était une fois... la vie" and I realize the narrator VA is the same as Astérix.
>>83153378
Okay, so there's this thing called the internet, now stay with me on this, but it's like a massive online repository of information
>>83163186
Yeah, you should totally leave your kids go on the net unmonitored, they will certainly only search and come across academic knowledge.
The big advantage of the TV is that you can do other things for the duration of the show.
>>83153378
Reagan outlawed them, saying it was up to the market to decide when children learn
>>83163186
Yeah because fuck children books, schools, and curricular programs. Just put in "Teach me stuff" into Google and a kid's interest in learning will flourish.
This is you when you tell this to your kids someday.
Because cartoons are a terrible way to educate kids. Kids watch TV for entertainment, not to learn.
I watched Sesame Street all the time as a babby but didn't learn how to read or spell until I went to school and learned. I watched Sesame stretch for the colourful puppets, to see Bert and Ernie arguing or Cookie Monster chowing down.
I look at cheap insipid shows like Dora the Explorer which bored me even as a kid and know the only reason it continues to be funded is because it runs under the guise of being "educational" by throwing in a Spanish word every now and again.
I got more out of shows that involved me with characters than shows that stop and blink at the camera for 5 minutes to save on animation.
TLDR; Dora the Explorer is neither educational nor entertainment. At least Sesame Street had cool characters.
>>83166167
Dora is the source of many evils like go diego and ni-hao chin chon
>>83163436
why not? that's what we do. you can only fap once then you're spent. then you start getting curious and start ablorbing all the knowledge ever.
more to the point, you do it when you want. and it's pretty fucking obvious by now by observation, common sense, AND studies, that you can only learn when you feel like it.
>>83166167
back in my day sesame street wasnt even educational. it was just a bunch of goofy comedy sketches that had nothing to do with facts.. and occasional reminder that a particular letter and a particular number exist
>>83153378
You need an audience worth educating.

so that's what it was about? I remember how weird the final episode was, first being about birth and death and then suddenly talking about space rockets and mentioning a man who tried to become immortal with technology completely out of left field
