What are some things (shorts/failed pilots, commercials, maybe toys and children's books, etc.) that you feel could have worked as a bigger /co/ related thing?

I heard the toys and stuff its advertising for were just okay, and that there was apparently some legal drama over other commercials, which focused a bit too much on "girl power", but I could easily see this working as a full-fledged educational cartoon series.
Milky Way and Galaxy Girls. That's all. Just do something with this already.

Magic Children Doing Things. I imagine it'd be what I expected out of Harvey Beaks.

Good style, character designs, multicultural, female lead, not overly preachy but educational? I mean its pretty tumblr but actually looks like its not shit, what the hell? I heard literally 0 things about this

When those were new there were a couple of threads, and of course some porn here and there, but it didn't really make much of a splash.

I could see that working as a mini series

Since they're actually bringing back Hey Arnold it'd be nice if The Patakis could someday be a thing.

The idea of the toy is pretty stupid but the animation was great and the activitie ideas were nice too. I would like to save the cartoon for when I have children but I wouldn't buy the product that started it all.

I first saw one of the toy kits at a thrift store and immediately questioned whether /co/ had sexualized her yet.

This one looked awful and the characters' voices were atrocious.
