>what are you watching
Frasier. It's always Frasier. I swear, this show is like comfort food for me, I'm at the point where I just like having it on while I do other things because I enjoy the background noise
More relevant to this board in particular, I've also been rewatching Batman Beyond- I was curious how well it's held up, 20 years later. The answer is that it's still an extremely solid, well thought-out show, and WAY darker than I remember it being. Yes, we've all seen the "Bad End Beyond" graphic get posted around /co/ from time to time, but that doesn't really make it clear that someone dies in a horrific way damn near EVERY episode.
All of that aside, watching it kind of makes me sad, because it feels like a product of a time that may never come again. Most superhero cartoons don't really stray far from doing loose adaptations of existing material- Batman Beyond was a hell of a lot more ambitious than that, and was not at all afraid to take ENORMOUS risks. It paved the way for the rest of the DCAU following suit and carving out its own unique identity.
It could never get made in 2019. Too risky, not enough immediate marketability. "We want Avengers money and we want it right now, no time to actually build anything."
