Maybe it's because I hated being a kid, but I never liked the show. There's so much awkward/bizzare shit that just made me uncomfortable

>>150052836 (OP)
Again with the gknd?

>>150052836 (OP)
>GKND
didn't they already have leaked content?
its actually happening now?

>>150052836 (OP)
Get ready for a huge animation downgrade, every reboot and revival of this decade had a significant downgrade in animation quality cause of how shit our animation industry has become and how much retarded normies don’t give a shit about quality.

The Phineas & Ferb and King of the Hill revivals look like they were animated by DIC Entertainment, this will be the same shit.

At least they aren’t reviving one of those shitty 2010’s beanmouth shows this time.

>>150052861
I felt the same about Rugrats.

>>150052861
I thought the premise was retarded and liked it less when I found out about it being race mixing propaganda, but /co/ likes race mixing and retarded premise cartoons so I don't blame them for having different tastes than me and announce it to everyone in their generals.

>>150052836 (OP)
He needs to move on.

>>150052836 (OP)
He needs to let it go. We've been teased KND for over 10 years. It's not happening.

Since when has a show revived after THIS long ever been good?

>>150052861
>There's so much awkward/bizzare shit that just made me uncomfortable
Which is what made it so fucking awesome.
I'm not sure if Galactic KND would work as well as the OG show, but if señor warburton still wants to do it, I'm open minded.

Cartoon Network is getting desperate.

What, can he not come up with a new idea?

>>150052861
This. I never liked how they treated adults either. I was okay with and even friends with most adults in my life and kids were always little shits so the show never felt right to me. I liked the gadgets and their treehouse but the concept was just too stupid for me to get around. And the weird topics they chose to write about were super cringe a lot of the time. Numbuh 5 and her sister were probably the best characters though, their episodes were probably the best in the show, and they were the only ones that made a lasting impression that I still remember.

Gem or trashfire.
It can't end any other way

>>150053341
It will be so mediocre it will be forgotten in a week. Modern kids are an entirely different creature than the ones who watched the original KND.

>>150052861
I just thought it was retarded that teenagers were somehow more mature, if anything they should be the most rebellious faction.

>>150052836 (OP)
Oh he's doing this again huh?
I wasn't on board with the original pitch, felt too edgy with the cursing

>>150053398
Wanting desperately to be an adult is the most teenage thing ever, so it makes sense.

>/co/ back in 2015 couldn't stop gushing about the possibility a KND sequel
>when it finally gets announced it's only met with apathy and disdain
Shows how much the userbase has changed.

>>150052836 (OP)
>NostalgiaCon
Kinda retarded concept.

>>150053451
There has been way too many mediocre sequels/continuations for most people to have faith anymore.

When even the official twitter wants this to be a thing lol

ITS FUCKING HAPPENING LADS

>>150053600
just because the zoomer intern running the account wants it doesn't mean the 50 year old executive cares

>>150052836 (OP)
This won't end well.

>>150053451
Because all the other sequels they've released these past few years were so great right?

>>150053451
Ten years of terribly made reboots and continuations of beloved series tends to do that

>>150052836 (OP)
>6 seasons
>3 specials
>1 movie
jesus just let the show go man

Is KND worth revisitimg as a 22yo who only barely remembers it from when it was airing?

>>150052836 (OP)
Does anyone else think GKND, conceptually, is just a stupid idea even in the world of KND? Unless I missed something isn’t the idea that adulthood is an alien disease or something and the GKND are gonna genocide them or something? I loved KND but I’ve never been excited about a sequel series, at least one that goes in this direction.

>>150052836 (OP)
Same as this anon >>150052861 I never like the show at all, but I did like Grim Adventures and did enjoy the crossover they had with KND, still if you did enjoy this show and are excited over it's revival good for you

I can't nelvivbne Galatcic Kids Next DOor is acutally being made

>>150052836 (OP)
Still seems weird to me that "wholesome" ToonHive uses the Nazi app. If you want to bitch that Snoop Dog thinks there's too many gays in cartoons, and make posts about artists' rights, you really shouldn't be using the site that throws artists' work into AI, owned by the guy that Nazi-saluted at inauguration.

Anyway, I'll believe GKND is happening when I see it. Even with all the reboots and crap going on, this just feels farfetched. Even Goddamn GARGOYLES managed to get a comic sequel, and we're still hearing "any day now, GKND!" Hell, the target audience of the original show have kids now. At absolute most MAYBE we could get an "Enter the Florpus"-one-shot-movie but TMNT 2012 should get one first.

>>150052836 (OP)
Watch it fail fast, kids don’t know who the KND are anymore. All those kids who watched it became adults.

>>150054166
>I can't nelvivbne
Are you good? If I leave you here are you good?

>>150052861
It was better in spanish

>>150053451
Its a live script reading of something that hasn’t been greenlit yet in a convention that’s not named Comic-Con. Warburton said he did storyboards that were meant to be shown on a screen but they didn’t have it for the panel. So I assume most people will find out about it when they post that online.

>>150052861
As a kid the show was always cool enough to watch to pass the time but I don't recall ever being too excited about any new episodes, especially compared to other shows. The ending was cool though and I'm probably more excited for a potential GKND sequel then I ever was for the show.

>>150053377
This isn't for kids, this is for the fans of the original

>>150054066
It's no more stupid than broccoli being their version of kryptonite
Or kids originally being an immortal race before they accidentally created adults
Or nobody caring about the fact that a bunch of children have their own paramilitary organization that's capable of space travel
A lot of the plot elements in the original show were fucking stupid but they just werked
I don't see why GKND would be an exception

>>150053037
Racemixing is based.

This entire thread is underaged
I mean how else would they know about that terrorist organization of infernal brats

>>150055697
This thread is only for KND operatives. No adults allowed

>>150055722
mods?

>>150055608
>Or kids originally being an immortal race before they accidentally created adults
Pretty sure that was just meant to be number 1 being crazy and the stinger ending of that episode was just meant to be a joke in the vein of the episode in Dexter's lab where the Earth gets blown up at the end or the one where Dexter dies at the end.

>GKND changed from Numbuh 1 fighting his former friends to teaming up with them against GKND
I dunno, I think the original premise was stronger

>>150052861
>Anon's a filthy kid hating ad*lt...

>>150053341
KND feels like it'd lend itself well getting a 40k esque treatment. It was already doing over the top shit

>>150054066
GKND is literally just KND meets Warhammer 40k. They even have an Exterminatus. The GKND are basically The Imperium of Kidkind and I guess adults are the equivalent of Chaos. Would also explain the likes of Father and Grandfather. They are the equivalent of Daemon Princes.

>>150056333
Yeah, perfect way to do a whole Uno's doubts about the GKND through some episodes before he rebels and returns back to his team to go against the GKND

>>150052861
>>150054097
Agreed

Get ready for an episode where they sneak into Jeffstein's island

>>150053037
Listen hoagie likes his chocolate
And Wally likes Asians
And Nigel likes fatplants

>>150056333
I feel that was obviously where it was heading though. Like his team gets though to him and he turns against the gknd

>>150052836 (OP)
Exciting!

>>150052861
I like shows that dive into the weirdness of being a kid but the kids rule adults drool thing never clicked with me, just felt patronizing.

he could have made it an anime since it still has a following at the nips enough for official merchandise to be made and released

>>150053325
I liked the early seasons where it was just five kids in their weird-ass treehouse were fighting some crazy asults. The worldwide organization fighting adult tyranny plot was too much for me.

>>150053451
Modern reboots haven't had the best track records.
Number 5 will be trans now by the by.

>>150058566
Anon they introduced global knd stuff in the first season with the Arctic base

>>150056503
>adolestartes and their 2x4 tech power armor and bolters

>>150058339
The pencil bag on the right looks like underwear.

>>150052836 (OP)
Holy fuck I hope this gets made

Right now CN is banking hard on 2010s cartoons and some early 2000s shows. But maybe they will give GKND a chance eventually.

>>150055608
>Or kids originally being an immortal race before they accidentally created adults
What or who would be the KND version of Yakub?

>>150052836 (OP)
Why though? The people that originally watched KND are like in their 40s now.

>>150058625
Really? I always thought it took longer.

>>150058803
It ran from 2002-2008
Say the target demo was 6-12.
The oldest cohort of 2002 would be 35.
The youngest cohort of 2008 would be 23.

>>150052861
I stopped watching as a kid because it was the cartoon that focused the MOST on romance and relationships back then, hated seeing that shit when I was like 7.

>>150053305
They don't want new ideas. Craig McCracken explained this. Netflix turned down 16 of his pitches but Cartoon Network accepted the PPG and Fosters reboots.

>>150052861
same
>>150052988
the first and second seasons were good because it was more focused on the adults

>>150054066
>>150056503
>>150055608
>>150058187
>>150052861
THE MESSAGE OF THE SHOW WAS THAT GROWING UP ISN'T SOMETHING TO BE AFRAID OF AND DOESN'T NECESSARILY MEAN CONFORMING TO WHAT YOU FEAR GROWING UP MEANS YOU FUCKING HINEYHEADS
NUMBUH ZERO CHOOSES TO FORGET HIS TIME AT THE KND BECAUSE HE ACCEPTED THERE'S HAPPINESS IN BEING AN ADULT BECAUSE IT MEANS HE CAN BE THE BEST FATHER HE CAN BE FOR HIS SON
THE REST OF SECTOR V GREW UP TO BE ADULTS AND THEY"VE ALL FOUND HAPPINESS AND FULFILLMENT IN IT

>>150052909
The knd artstyle is already easy to draw. The worst I can see happening is tweening desu.

>>150060706
We're getting tween animation for sure, western cartoons forgot to animate anything that isn't beanmouth.

>>150052836 (OP)
Never gonna happen, he's been trying to sell this sequel series for almost a DECADE now

>>150060498
are you okay

>>150052836 (OP)
Poor Mr Warburton is gonna get his heart broken...

>>150052836 (OP)
Why doesn't he just turn it into a comic book?

>>150062039
comicbook sequels are unfortunate cause noone reads them.
Did you know Powerpuff Girls, the original, reecently had a comic? It’s even good. Noone read it. Comics are dead as fuck

>>150059441
There's a Foster reboot?

>>150062067
Yes but don’t get ur hopes up it’s a preschool show with only Bloo mentoring some toddler imaginary friends noone else

>>150062067
Yes, but it's specifically for preschoolers.
Also none of the original characters are in it aside from Bloo and Madame Foster.

>>150053037
Stfu tranny

>>150062094
>>150062134
Of course these networks still want to babify existing shows. I can even the remember the last time I took interest in something like that outside of the original Muppet Babies which I only vaguely remember watching as a kid in the 90s.

>>150053398
This >>150053437 but also that teenagers often will hate kids and find them more annoying than adults, or will just mess with them because because they're punks and the less capable kids can't do anything about it

>>150062060
They should do manga instead.

>>150062060
>comicbook sequels are unfortunate cause noone reads them.
Because most of them are just cashing and don't channel the original property at all, and words of
>whoa this one's ACTUALLY good!
are usually from people that are willing to settle for less if it means something is being produced that's somewhat recognizable. Like those Invader Zim comics a decade ago: competently made, but were completely unable to capture the show's energy in print form (an admittedly hard task), and people sucked em off anyways

This guy sounds desperate

>>150062393
Wouldn't you be? Nobody's accepting these guys' original pitches so nostalgia is all they have.

>>150058845
-30° got introduced in episode 6a

>>150058566
The KND stopped being just a single group of kids after the first three or four episodes.

>>150052861
You're such a pickle rick you know that.

>>150063510
Bro had this idea since 2008 mine guy

>>150052836 (OP)
I don't wanna be mean, but like... when do you move on as a creator?

Like, he's been pushing for more KND even before the industry was non-stop reboots and sequels; when it was actually possible to get something original off the ground. But he's just been riding KND since it first ended. When do you move on and go, "Maybe I should try making a SECOND show!"?

>>150062163
Actually this was Craig's idea himself since he has a toddler of his own and want to make shows for her

>>150066861
Mr Warbutor seems like that one show type guy that don't really seem as Passion of the crate more shows in the same vein as Steven hillenburg who created well SpongeBob SquarePants and also Knd seems like his magnum opus like he seems to be truly in love with his universe that he created and passionate to wants to do more of it

>>150066861
The guy likes his setting and it is a fun setting. No harm in wanting to do more with it

>>150066861
Mr Warburton seems like that "one thing type creative" where they don't really seem as passion of creating more than one show in the same vein as Steven hillenburg who created well SpongeBob SquarePants and also Knd seems like his magnum opus like he seems to be truly in love with his universe that he created and passionate to wants to do more of it

>>150053451
Tbh I’ve always found the idea of GKND to be dumb because the concept of number one deciding to commit Total Adult Death just sounds really stupid

>>150060498
>THE MESSAGE OF THE SHOW WAS THAT GROWING UP ISN'T SOMETHING TO BE AFRAID OF
Everything bad in peoples lives happen because they grow up.

I will assume nothing and keep expectations low unless something actually happens

>>150066861
When do you stop being a faggot?

>>150067010
That's why in the teaser script he and sector v are against it and wants to stop them, why do you think they were spraying that hashtag "stop the gknd"

>>150067010 (me)
Like I get that’s supposed to add to the tragedy of it, since the show goes out of its way to show some adults aren’t evil, but it still feels so dumb to me. What would happen to make numbah one willing to kill his own father? To kill the parents of his own friends? To kill all of the adults around the world that are just average ass people? I imagine the show would’ve explained that, but I feel that any explanation would be retarded

>>150067010
In fairness, who knows what shit he experienced out there?

>>150067069
Again basically WH40k shit. There could be horrid shit out there and it could potentially be preferable to purge compared to what the alternative scenario is..

>>150067123
I'm imagining a planet of people like grandfather and honestly yeah TAD sounds pretty preferable

>>150067123
I wonder what their equivalent of Tyranids would be. Extragalactic murder hamster swarm?

What is their Codename, Kids Next Door?

>>150052861
oh man, I'd hate to be the kid that couldn't enjoy KND for whatever reason. You really missed out on western mid-00's childhood peak

>>150052861
the show did have a lot of moments id rather not remember
>the numbuh four forced feminization episode
>the toenail jar episode
>the pink eye/booger crust cereal episode

>>150052836 (OP)
This came out when I was in Middle School and by then I was starting to only watch CN for Toonami. Found the show agitating but I think that was more with the fact that I was well into puberty so felt things a 6-10 year old would do as cringy and annoying.

>>150069764
Yes, they're spy themed

>>150060498
THAT WAS LIKE 5 MINUTES OF THE MOVIE. THE SHOW HAD NO OVERARCHING MESSAGE, IT WAS JUST
>what if kids turned their kid junk into james bond and fought supervillains based on adulthood and stuff kids hate
>that'd be pretty funny

>>150070236
pussy

>>150066861
Because they're not going to give him a second show. Craig Mccracken has spoken many times about how he pitched a whole bunch of new shows and no one wanted any of them. They just want him to make Powerpuff Girls and Foster's.

>>150052861
I hated Kids Next Door because for starters the art style is shit.

Secondly the premise made the main characters unlikable cunts and the whole idea that kids are normal but in reality kids created the adults in a parody of The Matrix was fucking stupid even for fiction. Even the final episode went on preaching that growing into adulthood is a disease that must be fought. That kids MUST remain infantile forever like something out of Peter Pan. I just hated this shitty show. Everything about its themes don't make sense, are insulting even to kid viewers, and its trash.

And even worse this show inspired a shitty fandom of obvious pedophiles who I hope die horrifically. Kids Next Door is the precursor to Loud House.

Always hated this cartoon and I cursed its creator. Hope all people who worked to make Kids Next Door die brutal deaths. Also in particular FUCK the Fountain of Youth episode with that gross disgusting ugly teeth Woman Child who was pretending to be a little girl for multiple generations to hang out with actual children.

>>150052988
Yeah Rugrats is garbage. I never saw why the show needed to be about babies who don't act like babies. They should have been kids like in Hey Arnold able to socialize and communicate. And what I find amusing is that the writers thought creating Dil was ever a good idea, a literal baby who does act like a baby. In the context of Rugrats whose babies don't act like babies.....Dil is the RETARD of the group. And no one likes the character who is an outcast like that.

>>150058187
This for me. Didn't help that at the time I was watching cartoons like the first Ben Ten and I thought Grandpa Max while not perfect was totally chill and I liked that Max used to be a soldier who fought alien criminals so his life experience helped support Ben his grandson into fighting different alien criminals.

So by comparison I really fucking hated Little Shits Next Door with their anti adult overtones.

>>150055697
lmao

>>150054320
Sad!

>>150066861
just do what the creator of eene does

>>150054320
Kids probably wont relate to it because theyve never went outside too busy on ipads

>>150067023
Tomino was right. Adults ruin everything in this world.

>>150071808
>second show
wasn't that pepper ann?

>>150053451
I think people are a bit nonplussed because
A. This is nothing really new, it isn't going to actually be a show yet (if ever) and it's still Warburton trying to stoke those dying coals in the hope he can somehow convince the suits to pick it up despite the last big hurrah he tried amounting to zilch
B. A lot of revivals happened between now and when GKND was first announced and they were mostly just kind of crappy.

It's hard to react to it beyond apathy because it's nothing new and a revival no longer has the luster it once had.

>>150066861
I mean, he's been working on other stuff, like the Muppets Baby reboot, it's just that the iron is hot right now.

>>150067069
I feel like that would be the crux of the plot and there's also the chance he's playing triple agent or whatever. We really don't know much about this beyond the brief teaser so it's hard to really judge it without much of a context.

>>150062134
what is the point of this? And it's for toddlers, why do you need the old IP that toddlers won't give a shit about

>>150054042
Yeah, it's a fun show with a lot of pastiches of movies you might not have watched as a kid. Like I didn't even get that they straight up made an episode that was a direct parody of one of the Animatrix shorts until many years later and it's a lot funnier with that context because of how close they follow it.

>>150066861
He tried pitching a book a year after KND ended, and that didn't get anywhere. Just couldn't compete with his buddy Mo Willems
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MhgBNadtNzs
The Fido Dido style was dying off in the late 2000s, and KND was the last show to use it.

>>150066861
He's worked on a bunch of different shows, it's just that the industry is in such dire straights that the only chance these guys have at being a showrunner of their own projects these days is if they dust off their old IPs and cash in on the nostalgia bucks. Maxwell Atoms tried and failed to do the same with Billy and Mandy not that long ago.

>>150073603
Pepper Ann was before KND and it wasn't his show. He just did the designs. Sue Rose was the actual creator behind Pepper Ann. I bet people don't know she also created Angela Anaconda, and Nickelodeon's Unfabulous (The show that launched Emma Roberts career.)

Also this is more of a modern issue. Craig had no trouble launching multiple new IPs in the past, but these days studios just want familiar brands.

>>150066861
>>150073911
Both Maxwell Atoms and Warburton were just lucky their shows were greenlit from being the most voted short on in CN's Big Pick contest.
Being there at the right place and right time despite only having experience working outside of CN/WB.
Imagine getting mediocre cartoons like Foe Paws, Uncle Gus, Lucky Lydia, Major Flake, or My Freak Family as shows over those?
You don't get these opportunities anymore with cable dying and streaming rising.

>>150074016
Its kind of funny. Given that streaming needs an endless supply of trash you would think they'd have more chances but animation is the industry that's struggling the most due to streaming. Western animation specifically since anime already having a consistent content stream benefits streaming a lot.

>>150074016
It's doubly sad because they're both workhorses that have done good work on other shows as well but for whatever reason they're just not a hot commodity with the suits so they have zero chance of getting any of their pitches off the ground these days.

>>150052861
>adultfag
You're just mad that you didn't pass the academy

>>150074068
I think anime has contracted significantly since the 90s as well, it's all a bit of a microcosm of all the macro problems causing shit to get worse generally. It's the same reason people all over are having less kids or being unable to own houses like their parents or grandparents could. Shit is fucked in so many ways and this is but one reflection of it all. Also streaming in general while being a boon for the consumer (at least in terms of usability and access anyway) has utterly decimated so many traditional avenues of revenue and subscriptions just don't cut the mustard but the genie is out of that bottle and there's no real way to go back, a real double-edged sword.

>>150054042
yes is will be very nostalgic for a time that doesn't exist anymore and they don't randomly insert gay shit or random communist propoganda
The worst is that the kids crush on each other which some anons get butthurt because muh racemixing

>>150074219
The anime industry has its own problems sure, but as far as streaming is concerned its still a consistent stream of content since the seasonal cours mean a healthy selection of shows area always starting around the same time each year.
