#tom was steven universe as a child

[sleepynegress]

Like I said zawe is lucky and Tom hiddleston is the best and hes sexy you need glasses

Ahhh them. I'm gonna answer this nicely in hopes of maybe helping with growth? Love isn't "luck". What is initially physically attractive to many? Is often determined by what society tells you is.

I've been fortunate enough to have lived long enough to see "beauty standards" change. I remember when people didn't want BBLs or curves. I've seen the cute TikToks where moms would show their teen daughters the "hot guys" from back in the day and the girls would just go "Eww!". Figuring out what you really want, or don't, often comes with experience; the variety of people you get to be around and care for in life, and how open you are. Often "pretty" people become ugly through their actions, vice versa, and everything in between...

It's a whole package thing. In my deep MCU days, Tom didn't cross my radar because he came off as feeding on the attention and fame. I mean he was cute back then but in a twinky way, IMO. Boyishness makes me want to mother you, not think you're hot. But for the younguns I get it. The housewives? My lip is curling up and I'm side-eyeing a bit... at least for back then. Plus his fandom came off like too many I've encountered that treat white men and their characters like they are infallible, but need protecting somehow?.... Again it added to that little boy sense of him. Since then, (in my parasocial speculations), he's acquired some wrinkles and wisdom and learned that what he thought he had in all that Hollywood attention, wasn't "real" and now he actually does seem attractive because he's a grown man, now. Now, it's if Gene WIlder and Lee Pace could have a middle-aged baby, it would be Tom. All those things that drew such a following back then came off as performative and people-pleasing to me. The lack of boundaries, the talking over people, and going on and on... My grandma would have said he was smelling his upper lip. He was academically intelligent but often came off as socially naive, IMO, and I think most could infer the most naive stumbles he made in that era...*ahem* Zawe was one of many Black women from before I knew of Tom who I rooted for in the industry. ... Many of whom, you don't see much anymore, sadly. But the difference in their journey IMO & her accomplishments w/o the money, gender, and racial privileges her partner has, says a lot about the kind of character Zawe possesses. Again, parasocial! ... but I see a man who encountered a grown woman not enamored by or deeply entangled in the industry but had carved out her own path despite lacking all those things the industry demands you have to have, to succeed. A smart person would be impressed by that and her authentic kindness, sense of humor, intelligence, and joy in what she does...on top of being what he likes physically (we not gonna act like that man does not always ping or have the best onset chemistry when a leggy woman is around).

He's a leg-locked king (apologies or you're welcome for the imagery). He seems to be a gentleman and Zawe is not one of his little fangirls. They come across as equally enamored, and grown, and I would like to think they have a healthy loving partnership. Which makes them both extremely lucky.

Michelle Gomez Panel

Please note this IS NOT word for word, but so you can get a general gist of the panel. Both Michelle and Sacha were hilarious.

Whovians of all ages got to ask Michelle questions.

This post is just Michelle’s panel I’ll make separate posts for them together and Sacha’s panel soon!

How’s your New Zealand accent?

Bad I only have one and it’s Scottish I’ve been working on it my entire life… so 27 years. Lol

What was your favourite episode of Doctor Who to film?

I went to set and there was an army Daleks of every variety, and I stuck my 8 year old son in one and they started filming and I didn’t know were he was just that he in was in a Dalek.

Would you like to be in the new series of Doctor Who?

Hell yes, I’m just waiting for the call.

In Who and Sabrina you play a define feminine who was wronged by others what was your motivation to play these kind of villains?

With my face it’s hard not to plays witches and bitches and I long to play a character called Alison but Madam it is. I want to make sure I’m not just playing bad, I believe people are the way they are because of their experiences, so what makes them bad? That’s what interests me in the characters.

Did you like sitting on the throne of hell in Sabrina?

I loved sitting on it and wish I could have taken it home, I would have made room for it.

Did you Ad lib much in Doctor Who?

Steven Moffatt is a phenomenal writer so there’s not much you could add to it. But sometimes on the day something would fit. But Moffatt wrote to my strengths so I didn’t feel I needed to.

Why did you want to help the Doctor?

There’s a thing called a frenemy, keep your enemy’s close. They were originally friends and like all relationships they go through good times and bad times and sometimes they go their different ways. The master went to the dark side and the Doctor went to that other side. I was trying to bring in the nuance to that relationship

If you make it to the new series will you still help the Doctor?

No

If you put Missy and Lilith in a room together would they plot world domination or try to kill each other?

I think they would try each others costumes on. Once I wanted to bust of of Missy’s costume and it was hot so I took the top layer off and thought I’d just wear the petty coats in the scene, and Steven Moffatt was like… what are you doing? This is a children’s show, put your clothes back on. Lol. Lilith got lots of incredible costumes.

Being the last of the Timelords do you think the Master and the Doctor ever had a child?

Wow, I don’t know, I’m not sure the Doctor and the Master have those bits. They’re like Barbie and Ken. The first thing you do with a figurine of yourself is check.

What would you have changed about Missy’s costume?

I don’t think it could have been more Missy, it was a phenomenal image. It sent the message that Mary Poppin’s was the most evil woman in the Universe. There was a corset and after lunch I did hate the costume.

How did you get the role of Missy?

I was offered another part but I was doing psycho bitches at the time so I wrote to Steven Moffatt if you need a villainess I’m your man. Then a couple months later my agent called, said to sit down and that Steven was offering me the role of the Master, I was blown away. I might have planted the seed, I’d like to take credit for it.

If you could travel with any other Doctor and torment them who would it be?

Tom Baker

Do you like being the villain of Doctor Who?

I do. If anyone is listening I do, I would like to come back, stop fucking around, I’m available.

There’s episodes with multiple Doctors why can’t we have multiple Masters?

Because there’s only one! Although Sacha is quite good, I like Sacha.

Were you nervous the first time you were on TV?

Yeah, that was a long time ago on a show called The Bill and I played a ticket warden. The director said to do a banana around the car and slap a ticket on the window. I didn’t know what a ‘banana’ was so I acted like I was slipping on a banana, landed on the ground, the crew looked at me and I just jumped up and they told me what I actually needed to do.

What was your favourite part of being chaotic and fun with your Missy?

They let me piss about with focus, I could be physically free, I could dance and bounce a lot.

Can you share a funny moment on Doctor Who?

I was nervous, it was my first day, Peter and Jenna were there, when I get nervous I over compensate so I grabbed Peter, it’s like I go into some kind of black out, I threw him against the wall and snogged him, had my hand behind my back, because I knew that would make a nice visual, Jenna Coleman took my hand, that was my first 5 mins, it was weird.

What was it like being on set with Peter?

When I was younger I’d see Peter around and he was so cool like the David Bowie of paisley. And I looked up to him. When we started working together I felt like I already knew him, we had an instant short hand, so we crack each other up.

Shouting from the back…

Sacha: Oh so boring!

Michelle: SECURITY, SECURITY!

*Coming soon… there will be a part 2 with both of them and 3 with Sacha… I just don’t have time to post now.

[sunny6677]

Never really made a introduction post to my blog, so here—

Hello! I am Sunny, or Lila, or Tomori—you can call me either one of those but Lila makes my gender euphoria go yippee more jdnsnsj /lh

I'm taken by my lovely partner who I would tag if they actually had a Tumblr hsnsns /lh

My pronouns are she/her but I don't mind being referred to with they/them. I am transfem and lesbian—(and possibly on the ace spectrum??? Still trying to figure that out). I am autistic, and possibly have BPD—I also have pretty bad anxiety issues and some pretty bad OCD.

My interests are: FNAF, Spooky Month, horror, analog horror, poetry, BATIM, dinosaurs, jurassic park, TADC, Adventure Time, Steven Universe, etc etc the list goes on.

My kins, or rather just characters I strongly relate to are: Lila, Skid, Streber, Radford, Pomni, Zooble, Patty, Wednesday Addams, Eleven from Stranger Things, Rika Furude from Higurashi, Edd from Eddsworld (the character), Toriel, Alphys, Pacifist! Frisk, Kyoko Kirigiri, Jake from The Music Freaks, The Crying Child/CC from FNAF, Darwin Watterson from TAWOG, Garnet from Steven Universe, Marceline from Adventure Time etc etc.

My comfort characters right now are: Kevin and Lila from Spooky Month, or rather basically any character from Spooky Month, but mainly those two lmao.

My ships are: Lila x Kevin, Kevin x Radford, Edd x Tord (the characters are who I ship), Tom x Matt, Pomni x Ragatha, Lila x Jaune, Wednesday x Enid, Betty Groff x Simon Petrikov, etc etc.

DNI: MAPS, MAPS supporters, Zoos, Proshippers, any NSFW accounts in general because I'm a minor—I'm chill if suggestive stuff or jokes are made but nothing too heavy, anyone who takes shipping a little too seriously, ableist people, racist people, transphobic or homophobic people, any kind of LGBT-phobic people, anti-self shippers or anti oc x canon (I do self shipping and oc x canon so you should probably skedaddle out of here if you don't like either of those things). Tbh, just dni people who are weird or do stuff that harms other people in general. I'm cool if you don't like certain characters or shows or whatever the hell, but if you like doxx or harass people over having opinions or if you do anything creepy in general, you should probably get outta here. Also younger kids in general—like any age below 13.

This is also supposed to be a chill blog where I just post stuff I like—and I tend to really hate fighting, so chances are if someone tries to start fighting shit up in here, I'm probably either not gonna respond or I'll just delete whatever they said. I mean like if I did something genuinely wrong I'll reply, but this isn't meant to be a discourse blog. I'm just here to have a good time fam. /lh

And request—if you're gonna block me at least tell me why before you do. Not because of any specific reason, I just happen to flip out due to a personal experience I had a while ago and I start thinking that they blocked me because I'm a horrible person and did something terribly bad. So if you're not blocking me because you think I'm a bad person, it might be better to explain to me before you do since my obsessive thinking won't freak out if it's just something like me being into a ship that's a trigger for you or me just creating stuff that makes you uncomfortable/just stuff ya don't like in general. /gen

Other blogs: @ask-the-wage-trio and a few others I can't tag for some reason

SONAS FOR IF ANYONE WANTS TO DRAW ME—

(OOC: Wasn't able to make a blog for this one due to some minor troubles, so here—this one is the Ask Tom! blog thing jrndnd)

(Edit: Finally made a Tom blog!!)

"...OHOHO! THERE IT IS!"

(She jumps up and down in front of the camera, placing her hands on her hips.)

"HELLO, PEOPLE OF TUMBLR! I AM THE GREAT PRINCESS OF SEDONAH, TOM! AND I HAVE LEARNT JUST RECENTLY ABOUT THIS THING CALLED.. ASK BLOGS. I FIGURED I COULD TRY IT MYSELF, SO HERE I AM! YOU MAY ASK ME ANYTHING! FROM MY FAVORITE COLOR, FROM WHETHER OR NOT THE EARTH IS FLAT, TO IF I COMB MY HAIR! I, THE GRAND PRINCESS, SHALL ANSWER EITHER WAY! OHOHO!"

(Tom's reference sheet)

Tom's relationship chart:

[minigirl87]

MINE! With Steven Grant. Part 1.

Steven Grant x F'Reader

So, having written a few one-shots with hints of NSFW. I have taken the plunge to attempt a two-part NSFW story. Please be kind. Feedback and reblogs are appreciated. If you enjoy and want tagged for part 2, let me know. The Westmacott athlete is an ancient Greek sculpture in the British Museum it's underlined, and if you click it, it will take you to BM website for info on it. Enjoy. Please let me know if you want part 2.

SUMMARY:

Steven thinks that you're both going to have a nice lunch after his work, but after waiting, he goes to find you in the sculpture gallery of the museum. Finding you in the arms of another. Angry (not at reader), hurt, and jealous, Steven. Established relationship your married to them. Mentions of past bad relationships. Steven is sassy.

Warnings:

NSFW. Minors DNI. Talk and sexual actions. No smut in this part. Anxious reader due to past relationship.

Word count: 1269

Steven stood behind his till bored with a capital B. He watched people mull around the gift shop and leave. Somewhere breaking the everyday museum chaos, a child screaming breaks through.

Must have seen Donna. He smirks to himself, turning to find the time out. Just before 1pm, not long till he finishes now. You said you’d meet in the museum cafe for lunch today, as you were in there studying the sculptures for your university course.

Clock watching isn’t a good idea. The times are just going slower for him. He finishes with a customer, telling them something about they book they bought. As Jill comes back from her break, she smiles as she takes over from him.

With spring in his steps, he says his goodbyes to her and gets his stuff and heads for the cafe. 10 minutes have passed. Looking at his watch, he frowns as one of his rich velvety curls falls onto his forehead.

He stands up, thinking you’ve probably lost track of time. And heads for the sculpture gallery. He recognizes your sweet but excited voice and smiles. Turning the corner, his smile automatically fades.

“Now Y/N! Can you not feel the contour of the muscles of the thigh?” Tom says, guiding your hand in his down the cool, smooth marble. His other hand on your waist as he’s pressed up against your back.

“Yes, the Westmacott athlete is very impressive.” You say in aw, staring at the stunningly impressive piece of art.

“I especially like how defined the muscular torso and the dip of the pubic” you continue.

“Pubic area, eh?” Tom laughs, taking your hand and putting it closely over the statues phallus. “Tom” you half laugh half squeak, glad no one is presently in this part of the gallery.

Anger, hurt, or both boil in Steven’s gut. I'm glad that neither Marc nor Jake are co conscious. He watches a little longer and is about to leave when he hears Tom say “is my pretty girl getting embarrassed”

Before you can scorn Tom for that remark, Steven sees red.

“Y/N is not your pretty girl, mate” as the forcefully heads over towards you both.

“Ste, Steven” you stutter out, face in shock. Tom isn’t for letting go now. In fact, he squeezes you tighter against him. “ So, you're the Stevie, that Y/N prattles on about. Tom draws out sarcastically. “Steven actually with a V” venomously leaves Steven’s mouth with a hiss.

“well Steven with a V, I was just about to show darling Y/N, some pleasure about the Greeks sex life. He says, trying to intimidate Steven.

You feel like a mouse trapped between to cats, anxiety crawling at your throat threatening to choke you.

You didn’t want this. You don’t even like Tom. You were we’re uncomfortable being near him. But he had discovered you here in the museum gallery, sketching and taking notes. And waiting for Steven to be finished.

But Tom, who was in your class. Had a thing for you. You were trying to be pleasant and answered him with closed questions, hoping he’d go way. But it didn’t take the hint, and when his hands went yours, you flinched about to tell I’m off.

When his arm snakes around you, you go into panic mode and dutifully just answer Tom. You wished Steve would come and save you.

Steven looks like he’s ready to rip Tom apart. When You wriggle free of him when his phone buzzes. You scurry to Steven, wrapping your arms around him, burying your head into his broad chest. You feel yourself calming down his sent a mixture of citrus, lavender, and cotton.

Steven doesn’t relax or even look at you. He remains tense, with a slight hint of Marc to his eyes.

You know he’s hurting more and being angry. He puts an arm around you protectively, squeezing a bit too tight. You know a bruise will form later.

“Y/N is mine, My Wife. You don’t touch or even look at her. Mine. Do you understand.”

You had said to people that Steve was the sweetest, nicest, most gentlemanly man. She was as well as handsome, strong, and that he was one the world’s best husband, the other 2 being Marc and Jake.

Tom backed away quickly, nearly tripping over his feet, and disappeared with the same energy.

Steven looks down to you, expression not changing slightly.

“WE’RE GOING HOME NOW, Get your stuff.” grabbing your favourite colour satchel and putting your books away, putting your bag on your shoulder.

Steven softens “Put your jacket on love, it’s breezy outside” You smile, putting it on.

“HOME” Steven forcefully grabs your hand.

“Home” you repeat, as Steven pulls you away from the gallery and out the museum.

Steven’s mind is racing with thoughts about what might have happened to you. He trusts you, no doubt about that. He also knows that you get scared around certain personalities, especially men’s like you, ex.... but even knowing that, he’s still jealous.

Waiting for the bus home. Steven looks at you, your beautiful, your smile radiates sunshine. He can understand how people would want you, and you love him. He knows this.

You both get on the bus, oyster card bleeping. Stevens is still quiet, holding your hand. You now think he’s angry with you, if only you could read his thoughts. You would think very differently.

But we’ll he’s still jealous, seeing His hands on you. He remembered that you had told him of Tom, and you dislike of him. How you were uncomfortable around him as he tried to touch you, even after you told him not to.

You want to say something but don’t know what.

When we get home I’m going to show her how much I love her and leave my mark on her so people will know she’s mine, Show him she’s MINE, my beautiful wife.

Exiting the bus, the short walk back to the flat is filled with electricity between you and Steven. Entering the entrance way heading to the lift, Steven speaks to the elderly lady who lives across the landing from you. You smile at her, saying hello. She exits as you and Steven enter the lift.

The lift dings on your floor, and your exit heading to the flat door. Steven let’s go of your hand, and he unlocked the door. He walks into the flat, throws his keys and bag down, the lands with a thump and a clang.

You follow clutching your favourite colour satchel to your chest now. But Stevens is not in front anymore. Suddenly the flat door bangs and you jump, dropping your favourite colour satchel.

“Ste...Steven” you say, shaking now. You're not sure what’s happening.

Steven Stalks towards you, the flats dim light reflects of his fully blown obsidian eyes. He stands at his full height, looking at you like your prey. He rubs his thumb and fore finger along the hem of your blouse, you shiver as his rubs against your waist.

Steven steps closer and leans his head down and breathes in he smells HIM.

He grabs your chin, making you look at him as the growls “I smell him, SHOWER NOW.” You feel the words rumble through him. Sending a bolt heat surging through your core.

You nod, relieved that Steven is angry at you.

You turn to head to the shower, you feel Steven’s hand slap your arse cheek, Steven groans.

“Quickly now” as he watches you disappear, palming his semi hardness through his jeans. “I’ll be waiting love”

You smile, hearing his softness as you close the bathroom door.

The looks I thought of for Steven were inspierd by this stunning visualise concept by the very talented artist @guruan . If you love moon kight, you must check out and follow their blog. The first is when Steven goes looking for you. The second is when he sees you with Tom, and the third is, after leading to part two.

[analysing-universe]

I remember watching this cartoon when I was very young. Something about it made it very captivating—perhaps the vivid colors used in the characters, the childish language used, or the haunting music that would lodge in my head and never leave. All of these reasons seem perfectly reasonable for a child, but even after growing and maturing so much, what about this cartoon keeps me enjoying it so much?

The conclusion I came to is that the combination of nostalgia and the way serious topics were presented touched my heart. When I watched this drawing at the height of my 5 years, the only thing that went through my mind was how the adventures of the crystal gems were the funniest thing in the world, but years later, I stopped to think and analyze the impact that that drawing has had and still has on my life. It approaches serious topics in a way that a child will not really understand the interlinearity and pick up the references, but that it is clear to someone older, which is impressive. The care that the creators have taken with this series is spectacular; the composition of the songs, the scenarios, the characters—everything is done in a way that is fictional but can easily be brought to reality if you pay attention to the details. This and many other things are what keep me up with this drawing to this day. What are your motives?

[smokey-cat]

had a dream that was fucking wild

during it, childe went rogue and took a few fatui with him to create his own army to take over the world. homeboys went insane.

and apparently he seduced gorou and his army is now teamed up with the rogue fatui and set off to mondstadt (where zhongli was visiting for a minute) to take over 'the territory of the fatui' and massacred everyone who lived there so now its only the fatui, gorous army, zhongli and venti (who childe was fighting with roses sword from steven universe)

the sword originally belonged to zhongli but childe took it, idk

venti lost his form and is now a sad tiny pterosaur

the sword broke and zhongli lost his powers ig the sword was a stand in for the gnosis

childe and gorou kissed and the archons are flung across the sea and during the time when zhongli was flying back with venti i woke up.

so yeah, my dreams dont have meaning but they're funky movies to watch while i trial death every night..

edit: i forgot to mention that this all played out in the style of a looney tunes episode, with the facial expressions and sounds. venti made that tom cat scream atLEAST twice

The Misfortune From the Deceased

by Spider_enthusiast

“What the hell happened to that guy?!” Clint shouted, his jaw dropping to the floor.

Research and Links of 5 Animators

Reasons for choosing the previously mentioned animators.

Rebecca Sugar

Rebecca Sugar have contributed and been a part of two highly influential and beloved animated shows, Adventure Time and Steven Universe. She is also the first non-binary person to have created an animated series for Cartoon Network and her work has gained praise for representing LGBTQ+ themes.

Steven universe is an fantasy and sci-fi adventure show that has happy-go-lucky cartoon aesthetic and oddly satisfying fight scenes which resonates with a wide audience. The show also consists of characters young and old, various racial backgrounds and sexual identities that all people can relate to.

Adventure time is a cartoon where the characters age as the show progresses. In addition it also uses rubber-hose limbs character styles. The show also tackles on social topics and is inclusive to people of all backgrounds and orientations.

2. Ray Harryhausen

Ray Harryhausen was an American animator and a special effects creator who mastered in stop-motion animation. Inspired by the scenes that used stop-motion techniques in the movie King Kong (1933) he has experimented in the production of short animations. He has also succeeded in creating the form of stop-motion technique known as 'Dynamation'.

3. Carl Barks

Carl Barks was an American cartoonist, author and painter who is mostly known for his work on Disney Comics. He was the writer and artist of the first Donald Duck stories and Beagle Boys. He was called "The Duck Man" and "The Good Duck Artist" for working anonymously until later in his career. Compared with many other "funny animal comics" Barks' characters feel more real, believable and relatable. Barks also excelled in funny gag-based stories, clever satire and moralistic, yet never preachy tales.

Donald Duck, mostly known for his iconic speech impediment, temper tantrums and screw ups, and his dark side and how he gets comedically frustrated when the world around him seems to intentionally work against him, was Disney's second most famous cartoon character after Mickey Mouse.

4. Walter Lantz

Walter Lantz was an American motion-picture animator, cartoon producer and creator of the cartoon character Woody Woodpecker. He was a newspaper cartoonist at age 16 and later began experimenting with animation. He started working for Universal studios in the late 1920s and worked on the Oswald the Lucky Rabbit series. His creation, Woody Woodpecker first appeared in a the cartoon short Knock, Knock (1940) and became the star of a long-running series of cartoons the following year.

5. Gene Deitch

Gene Deitch was an Oscar-winning animator who created the Tom Terrific cartoon series, Nudnik, Munro, Tom and Jerry, Popeye and other cartoons and film versions of popular children's books. His films often showed a subtle sophistication beneath a seemingly simple premise and design. He has created short films based on acclaimed children's books by recreating the author's drawing style to give the impression that the author has personally made the film. He has also been offered to make new entries in the Tom and Jerry series and to revive it in 1961 by MGM. He directed 13 episode of Tom and Jerry and multiple episodes for Popeye the Sailor.

So this is gonna come off as kinda rambley but I want to talk about something that's been bugging me for a while now. In the past decade or so, there's been this really weird shift of teens/adults who watch kids shows (think My Little Pony, Adventure Time, Steven Universe, etc.) and will, for some reason insist that "No, this show isn't for kids! It's too dark! See? It has like, colonialism/death/murder/slavery/genocide! It can't be for kids! That sort of thing is too mature for kids!" And idk, maybe its cause I grew up in the 2000's when kids cartoons were dark and weird and creepy, but hat sentiment always rubbed me the wrong way. (Courage the Cowardly dog comes to mind. That shit was bizarre and freaky and baby me absolutely ate it up).

Anyway, I just want to point out that that attitude is actually like, really dangerous? Kids aren't stupid. They aren't incapable of understanding delicate or sensitive issues like slavery and genocide. The insistence that a kids show is only a kids show if its sanitized as hell and has nothing serious is super problematic. Like, think for a second. I grew up watching Courage, which was very often visually terrifying but taught kids that its okay to be scared, because true courage is being scared but facing your fears anyway. I also watched a lot of Avatar, which had topics like genocide and war and death and even concentration camps (remember the episode where the earth benders were being taken to a prison in the middle of the ocean? Or the episode where Hama revealed water benders were kept in tiny cells and barely given enough water to survive, let alone bend?)

My point is, me, and my generation, grew up with cartoons that were for children, because the topics were simplified and the comedy was childish, but that also treated kids seriously, and didn't assume that their audience were too dumb or immature to pick up on subtlety.

But in recent years that's...less and less the case. When cartoons are made, the creators seem, very often, scared to go back to the old ways and add childish elements because then any potential adult fans will throw a tantrum. And when they're made more "mature", they often forget that their target audience are children. (Steven Universe was guilty of this, in later seasons.)

So now you have an issue where fewer and fewer animated shows are genuinely made for kids, because they pander to their older audience, and the kids shows that do exist are increasingly juvenile, to the point that shows are being made for 10 year-olds that I would only have watched at like, 5 or 6. Which basically means that most modern shows aimed only at kids prioritize bright colors and funny/entertaining animation over anything complex that could actually make their younger audience genuinely think and learn. And for the occasional show, this isn't a problem. (I watched a lot of Tom and Jerry as a kid, and Looney Toons, and neither of those have a lot of thought-provoking substance. But I also watched shows that did make me learn and think, like the ones I mentioned before.). The problem comes when those shows are the only ones that are actually made for kids, and the only ones that networks put out because now they have to pander to an older audience when they should be concerned with their original audience: the children. (Though I will say, there's some good modern shows that are explicitly for children and still thought provoking. Craig of the Creek comes to mind.)

Anyways, this also becomes a problem when any new shows are introduced. This year, we're getting two new Transformers shows: BotBots and Earthspark. And already, when all we've seen is a short trailer for each, there're fans throwing fits because they look childish, and where's the maturity, and every time I see that I want to scream. Because. Listen. Transformers...is for children. Sure, the IDW comics and Bayverse movies were less child friendly, but literally everything else in the franchise was made with children in mind. I remember this same argument around TFA, and now it's one of the most beloved shows in the franchise. Hell, even Rescue Bots got this treatment, and everyone I've talked to who watched it actually really enjoy it. And neither of those shows pander to a more mature audience. Both of them handle serious topics without dumbing them down too much.

Also, this argument hinges a lot on the idea that children can’t handle “dark” shows or movies. I can guarantee you that is not the case. Children can handle blood and violence and complex themes, especially if they’re delivered in a simpler format. (Some kids will even eat that shit up. Seriously. As much as people like to joke about the Warriors books as a series, they also have a lot of violence for books about talking cats. Im not even kidding. In the first series the main villain is killed rather graphically by having his belly cut open. And kids love that shit.) When I was little I watched Watership Down, and the Animals of Farthing Wood. Both of those are notorious for violence and blood, but they are for children.

Will some children be afraid of violence and serious themes? Sure. But kids will also be freaked out over inane things too. I used to be terrified of both The Polar Express and A Neverending Story. It’s true that some younger audiences won’t be able to handle scarier themes, but not every kids show has to have death or violence or frightening things to challenge the way kids think. At the end of the day, it just comes down to understanding that children are able to handle and understanding way for than modern media gives them credit for. Kids aren’t stupid. They shouldn’t be treated like they are.

And just...yeah. I don't know to end this off, but that's all I really had to say. Also, even if a show is for children...that doesn't mean an adult can't enjoy it. Rescue Bots and Craig of the Creek are both for young children, and they're both two of my favorite modern shows. I'm an adult, in case that wasn't clear.

So I guess I'll end it off with this.

EVEN IF YOU ARE AN ADULT, THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH LIKING SHOWS MADE FOR KIDS. NOT EVERY KID'S SHOW HAS TO HAVE "MATURE" THEMES FOR IT TO BE OKAY FO AN ADULT TO WATCH IT. IF YOU'RE 20+ AND WANT TO WATCH A SHOW FOR 10 YEAR OLDS, DO IT. JUST DON'T INSIST THAT IT'S ACTUALLY FOR ADULTS TO SOOTHE YOUR OWN EGO.

That is all.

Goodbye.
