Yet another example illustrating "Get Woke. Go Broke."

[W_and_C]

Some of the decline probably is due to wokeness but likely, not all of it.

Naaah, TV ratings across the board are dropping

Blue's Clues Goes Full-On WOKE

“They could just have bad programming…”

That’s accurate. Is the above SERIOUSLY what you as a father would want your kids watching?

The mixture of adult sexuality and politics with arts and children’s programming is a mistake that is costing networks.

Sure, more options like streaming platforms and Netflix is probably playing a part. But it would be unrealistic to deny that mixing adult sexual & political themes is part of the networks’ decline.

Sponge Bob is a favorite of mine!

Opposite Day & Can You Spare A Dime, as well as the ones where they ride the roller coaster & get off the bus at Rock Bottom are hilarious, as is the one where Patrick goes into hiding as Patricia.

Mr. Rogers made every effort to include a variety of different people on his show.

GLBTQ shouldn’t be ignored, but, as in this episode

Blue's Clues Goes Full-On WOKE

Non-binary disabled dolphins? Really?

In a show that’s oriented towards children between 3 & 5 years of age? There are adults confused by the term non-binary, & is 3-5 really even an age where the majority sexual relationship that can propagate the species is taught, much less deviations that don’t make up a large percentage of the population?

Excellent. I hope this trend continues.

Or perhaps parents do not want their young children exposed to inappropriate sexual content.

Perhaps they get a set of old children’s programs on DVDs and turn of the trash that is coming out today.

I remember keeping my sons from watching Disney Channel/Nickelodian/Cartoon Network back in the early 2000’s. I can’t imagine how bad it is now. They knew all about Grape Ape and Hong Kong Phooey.

When I was a kid Nickelodeon was it.

But these days kids don’t watch television anymore, they watch YouTube which personally I am not a fan of.

Nickelodeon is a shell of its former self, and it’s not due to “woke” program. Outside of Nicks very specific problem of ousting Dan Schnieder, the industry has changed. Upcoming talent is no longer heading to TV networks, they are going streaming networks, and there is just too much competition for viewership. Especially from Youtube, which a lot of children these days have moved on to.

And if we are talking western animation, that’s also a shell of its former self. East Asian animation studios have taken over. Anime is the go to programing for cartoons these days.

Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network was amazing 20 years ago.

Back in the 90s my weekly splurge was going to the extra-large and unusually good CiCi’s pizza in Abilene for grazing rights and Cartoon Network in the room dedicated to that channel.

[Dem]

1980-2010 had some of the absolute best animated shows of all time. With 1990-2005 being probably being one of the best times to be a kid.

Sounds fun. Early 2000s CN had some of the best childrens programming of all time.

I still love the epic battle between Bonkers and Turbo, Banshee and Kapow … pure Spaghetti Western … only with bananas and whipped cream respectively.

Two episodes.

In one Krabs takes a bite of a crabby patty and says “so that’s what I taste like” and in another the corporate promo film reveals that the Crabby Patty was formerly a rest home for old crabs.

Plankton isn’t the villain.

Well that clears everything up!

Quick question: do you much care for anything after season three? To me pretty much half the episodes after that are “Plankton tries to steal the Krabby Patty formula”. I prefer the first three season classics like The Krusty Krab Pizza, the cardboard box, and the piece of paper. And of course “I ripped my pants” which always makes me think of a particular member when he mentions “sheeple food, baa, baa!”.

@SpacemanSpiff

As a huge SpongeBob fan that watches a few episodes while I lay in bed, enjoying a cup of coffee,on Saturday mornings, would you mind pointing to a specific instance of that show promoting transsexuality or bisexuality?

Remember, I’ve seen them all so I’ll know if you’re ■■■■■■■■■■■■ .

Just to edit: yes there are a few episodes where the male characters wear women’s clothing, but it’s in the same vain as when Bugs Bunny did it.

There are none and pretty sure I watched every episode
