Do you think the reason so many new independently animated shows suck nowadays because they're written by artists & not writers? They all feel like Community bits that every fandom can apply to their favourite characters™ stretched out into 30 minutes rather than a story with consistent & chohesive plot, narrative, themes, structure & direction.

I mean I dunno which independent animated shows you’re referring to here. Most of what I’ve seen is pretty good, but I can still address what you’re probably trying to say here.

Like you might have a point that a lot of them probably aren’t Vince Gilligan level, but yeah there is very much a point that indie animated shows come from a place of love for the characters and animation over a love for a perfectly engineered plot. And there’s nothing wrong with that.
