Why does Craig refuse to make any adult animation on Adult Swim or similar like every other prominent animator of his era?

I remember he always notably says in interviews that he's only interested in creating kid's media. That's just his jam and where his aspirations lie. I'm sure with a quick google you can find his exact words.

He and Lauren worked so hard to bear that one child that he now lives his whole life and career by said child. From now on EVERY new McCracken cartoon will aim for his child's specific demographic, so don't expect him to produce anything edgy for at least another decade.

He probably has. Remember he said he pitched 16 shows to netflix since Kid Cosmic ended and they all got rejected. There's a decent chance some of them were adult shows or at least skewed towards older kids. He only went back to PPG and Foster's out of desperation. It's hard fo underscore just how truly fucked the western animation industry is right now.

If the question is why he doesn't specifically go to adultswim now that he's done with netflix? Probably because PPG is safer and he has a family to feed.

Either she is just unlucky or very difficult to work with or maybe both.
To be honest, I don't think she'll do something unique ever.

None of those projects she was show running for were original works but revival of existing properties. You could swap out the names, and basic design elements and all the charm, personality, and voice acting talent would still make those shows popular. There is a reason why FiM still garners the same fame over the current generation of MLP.

I think it is the fact Genndy is an established name in the industry and honestly, he has outgrown Cartoon Network. He's one of the few Cartoon Network creators who managed to make the successful jump from TV to theatrical. He created two of Cartoon Network's most iconic shows and created a movie franchise that made Sony hundreds of millions of dollars. And when Genndy returned - after a decade of leaving CN for their shit policy - WB clung to him as they realized they couldn't afford to lose such a talented guy again. So they placate Genndy enough to keep working under WB.

I don't think it's from his own volition. He probably has over a dozen ideas at any moment for a show and him not making adult oriented shows is likely from a combination of
>having more kid/family friendly show ideas
>adult oriented shows get rejected in the pitch more often
>he's accustomed to his more adult leanings being toned down (remember how they were first the whoop-ass girls vs the devil?)
>McCracken has more of a proven track record with family friendly stuff
>execs more likely to approve based on track record
>execs more likely to be approved through proven IPs

Gennedy just has more pull and is very serious about animation as an art form. Craig is a careerist and a show-runner as well. Gennedy although is able to work within his limit budgeting during production. Craig has to stick to the mandate from producers.

Gennedy is simply just in a different league in the industry that everyone in his field respects.
