Disney Channel was working on a show called Poopdeck in 2008, around the same time Flapjack premiered. They cancelled it once Cartoon Network found out. the Flapjack episode "Panfake" is a direct response to Poopdeck, as it revolved around a knock-off version of Flapjack getting the Harbour's attention.

I don't even know what happened to this show awn.com
i honestly would've love to see Danger Planet as a full show
Why ripoff Flapjack? It was never that popular.
i'd watch the pilot because of her
Flapjack was screwed over big time
>Was pitched back in 2001 and 2004, was rejected both times and didn't get picked up until 2007.
>Had plushes and more merchandise planned, all of which was never released. Pic related.
>A licensed game for Nintendo DS was planned, never got made since the show was cancelled
>A TV Movie was also going to be a thing, again didn't happen because the show was canned
The show would have lasted much longer if it came out either early 2000s alonside Billy & Mandy and KND, or early 2010s alongside Adventure Time and Regular Show. CN Real really fucked it over alongside Chowder.
why do CN and failed merchandise go together so well
Chowder and Flapjack just came out at the wrong time. CN was changing, the old identity of the channel was gone and the new identity was a few years away.
But as CN's Dark Ages looked like the end of the channel, these two shows still gave us hope. They may have been cancelled, but their alumni started a new age for the Network.
There exists a bunch of these, they are either unreleased to the public and for the creative crew, or were only released in a very limited time.
>CN was changing, the old identity of the channel was gone and the new identity was a few years away
sounds like now
Flapjack depressed the shit out of me when I was younger, I don't know why. I never got scared at all, just a bit sad
The problem with CN is that they don't know how to handle damage control and managing during a transitional period.
Yea that was a fun watch awhile back. CN was pretty cool at the turn of the decade animation wise.
It is, CN came back strong during the early 2010s. Their last good show was Over the Garden Wall and they later went downhill by 2015-2016 when they had shit like We Bare Bears, PPG 2016, Ben 10 reboot, Mighty Magiswords, announced all their early 2010s shows were coming to an end and all their newer shows being borderline boring with terrible artstyles.
why should there ever be a transitional period?
every year there should be new shows being added and old shows being rotated out. we should never come to a point where one show dominates 80% of the schedule and runs for 8 years
wonder what the TV movie would've been about
Probably them discovering Candied Island for good, Van Orman is still on board to make a movie surpringsly.
I wanted these as a kid. I had the Foster’s one , they sold them on the CN shop.
Sometimes, there needs to be a change to the outlook of a brand, and often execs don't have an idea what that idea would be. Transitional periods are there to slowly change the outlook of the network. Both to look for what is a good new direction and not to scare away older fans.
Cartoon Network is fucking SHIT, what went wrong?
Compare them to the cartoons we had during the Renaissance era. And those are only the ones made by CN Studios, we had a ton of quality WB stuff like Scooby Doo Mystery Inc, MAD, Looney Tunes Show, ThunderCats 2011, Young Justice, Green Lanten, DC Nation etc...
what the fuck is the middle one
Dungeon Crawlers
>Originally greenlit by Disney TVA
>Series creator had mental breakdown on final days of working on Gravity Falls, cut out a drawing he did for Dana Terrace's birthday card on the way out due to the way she treated him
>Alex Hirsch and Terrace use the incident to get his show canned. Resulted in the creator angrily telling Alex over the phone that he wants to beat his ass
>Later took his series to Nick and had a pilot produced under their shorts program
>Was ready to give it the greenlight for a full series, but backed out and went silent on the creator after possibly hearing a rumour that Luke threatened to "kill" Hirsch
>Can't take the series any where else or have it produced independently as a webseries or comic due to Nick owning the rights and unwilling to sell it back to him
youtu.be
cool man, do you got a youtube channel where i can hear more about your regurgitated mob approved opinions?
we bare bears was good
I've never seen anyone discussing any of the other shows except thundercats roar, but they only talk about how much they hate it
everything on the right is fun
This. Too bad it's ending with a movie and a baby bears spinoff.
Unikitty? yeah
Total Dramarama and Thundercats Roar? Hell no
Adventure Time became the Network's biggest hit since PPG
It takes effort - to be so weird, that the animation industry just casts you the fuck out like a disenchanted mother by the drain channel.
Shine on, Luke, you crazy diamond; your taste in waifus is impeccable.
Curse you china
>due to Nick owning the rights and unwilling to sell it back to him
why are the networks this way
That true? I looked it up and no one attached to it worked on Gravity Falls.
TNMT with Mecha, looked cool.
used to own all of these
getting a patlaber feel and i love it
people hate Rise for the changes they made. This show would've been criticized to hell and back for being so different...
...but I like Rise and this mecha show would've been cool. for fucks sake, TMNT's been around for 35 years. let creative minds change the status-quo of the franchise
>TMNT's been around for 35 years. let creative minds change the status-quo of the franchise
nope, too bad. Enjoy the next TMNT reboot where it's the exact same shit for the 10th time
that Undertale music tho
what is this
>for fucks sake, TMNT's been around for 35 years. let creative minds change the status-quo of the franchise
Yeah, I even had an idea for a version of TMNT, where the brothers are human teenagers that are turned into humanoid turtles due to a fly that have been in contact with the Mutagen Ooze and gotten into the Turtle Gene serum that was part of the paid medical experiments that the brothers got apart of to earn some extra money, and they would be able to mutant from Turtles to Humans at certain times, and when this first happens during a game of dodgeball and police hunted them down til they escaped into the sewers, they come across Splinter who's a completely mutated rat that was effected by the mutagen years ago and was the leader of the foot until the Shredder took it from him, Splinter would teach them about Ninjitsu to fight local gangs, which leads into the Shredder coming to their hometown and recruiting said gangs to use as an evil mutant army, and it would be a live action tokusatsu-esc show, like a better version of the Next Mutation
looks pretty generic. It looks like your average cheapass pay to win MMORPG with nothing memorable in it

>CN execs demand merchandise to be made if they want the show to last longer
>crew goes out of their way to design and even make prototypes of it
>execs ignore it and end up cancelling the show because it didn't have merch
based
somebody redpill me on what the beef between Dana and this dude is
This.
People hate to admit it, but Adventure Time was less a renaissance and more an awful omen.
Gumball and Regular Show just happened to be flukes in a sea of trash.
>didnt credit the music
dick move, bro
How desperate must a channel be to greenlit something like The Fungies?
Meh, if I want to watch anime I'll just watch anime.
it's clearly aping anime style, but there's something else
i cant quite put my thumb on it, but something about this says french influence to me
It's a unique mixture of desperate and stupid.
It was pretty big at the time. When people look back at the early-to-mid 2000s, Flapjack and Chowder are the only big standouts.
So if you have to pick a cartoon to rip off, it's an easy choice.
>dude iphones and siri lmao
>girl talks like an '80s sassy black stereotype
>dated as fuck "hiyooo"
>totally generic art style, just with slightly more detail because it's a pilot
This looks like shit. And the characters are so generic, it's not like the creator couldn't just make another cookie-cutter fantasy cartoon.
I'm not gonna pretend it's good just because the creator threatened a fellow hack and it bit him on the ass.
How do you do, fellow Yas Forumsntrarian! Good to see another snowflake on here!
Oh man, it's not like there are good shows CN is airing like DC Super Hero Girls and Mao Mao
>Summer Camp Island
>Bad
Kill yourself.
basedtoon network
honestly at this point disney took the crown as the best cartoon network
