>>109744880Oh look, its the 'its ok thats its shit, its for kids' argument, not a response to criticism so much as it is a deflection of criticism, indirectly admitting that its garbage but thats acceptable so long as the audience is babies. An argument so flaccid and juvenile that theres a whole episode of TTG revolving around it.
The Muppet Show is 'for kids', Sesame Street is 'for kids', and those shows are fucking hilarious. Because theyre not written 'for kids', theyre written for everyone. Quality knows no demographic. Even lower end childrens shows like Dora the Explorer or Bubble Guppies are, at worst, boring for adults, and not completely insulting.
The notion that its ok for childrens entertainment to be shitty is stupid. Kids need quality entertainment MORE than adults, if anything. Because we dont want them to turn into shitheads when they grow up.
