nobody seems to ever know when to let a
0:02
kid's show end and instead they just
0:03
milk them for more seasons for better or
0:05
worse So here are TV shows that became
0:08
so bad they need to stop greenlighting
0:09
shows for more seasons versus those that
0:11
actually should continue on The number
0:14
one priority right now should be to stop
0:16
making Fireman Sam seasons immediately I
0:18
don't know how we keep getting so many
0:20
of these This show has completely fallen
0:22
from grace when the show switched to CGI
0:24
And if you count how many CGI seasons
0:26
there are in Fireman Sam we are at 11 of
0:29
them right now which is six more CGI
0:31
seasons than we have stop motion seasons
0:33
Not only is the animation in the first
0:35
five CGI seasons absolutely cringworthy
0:37
to get through and just looks terrible
0:40
You can tell that Zingzing Digital put
0:41
absolutely no budget in the show just
0:43
like most of their other shows The
0:45
characters are butchered The character
0:47
models are butchered into looking more
0:49
realistic and buff compared to their
0:50
ultra cartoonish semi-realistic stop
0:53
motion looks It has no connection to the
0:55
first five seasons the voice acting
0:56
especially for the kids in the UK dub is
0:59
absolutely terrible But in the US it's
1:01
actually decent And as the CGI series
1:04
was starting to improve in season 11 to
1:06
13 as the new animation from Wild Brain
1:08
looks way better and would evolve as the
1:10
show went along and the characters like
1:12
Norman Price became way better behaved
1:14
Sarah and James fought less often and
1:17
Elvis became slightly less of an idiot
1:18
in season 13 Season 14 to 16 got even
1:22
worse and worse and are such a giant
1:24
middle finger to the franchise They're
1:26
actually even worse than season 6 to 10
1:28
They made some of the absolute worst and
1:30
most unnecessary changes in the entire
1:32
Fireman Sam universe like the new
1:34
outfits for the firefighters which is at
1:36
least understandable since it's supposed
1:38
to imitate the modern years since most
1:40
firefighters don't wear the type of
1:41
uniforms that the crew wore in the first
1:43
13 seasons anymore The main problem is
1:46
that they look way too overly detailed
1:48
and cluttered and lose so much of the
1:49
charm of the original designs that were
1:51
timeless All the other changes are
1:53
completely pointless Like don't even get
1:55
me started on the Jupiter redesign It is
1:57
such a disgrace to the original design
1:59
that was such a classic And there is
2:01
especially no reason to change it
2:02
considering that the original basis is
2:04
still being used in British Isles as of
2:06
today like Wales Not to mention that
2:09
season 13 made Helen flood into a
2:11
firefighter from a nurse that cures
2:12
people when they get injured and season
2:14
16 redesigned the fire station for like
2:16
the 50th time So please just leave this
2:19
franchise alone and end it There's only
2:21
so much you can take the plot in these
2:23
11 CGI seasons before You're just
2:25
running out of ideas and doing stupid
2:27
things just to keep making these and
2:28
sell toys too Would have been nice for
2:30
Tugs to go on for more seasons like
2:32
seven perhaps because of how amazing
2:34
this show was The darker tone was used
2:36
phenomenally The characters are literal
2:38
perfection The voice acting is fantastic
2:40
and overall it had potential to be one
2:42
of the best older kid shows out there I
2:45
understand why it didn't get handed over
2:46
to the US since it became a trend
2:49
starting in the 1990s where kids shows
2:51
nowadays don't play with tone as much as
2:53
they used to anymore in the 1980s and
2:55
why Salty's Lighthouse was just a
2:57
heavily edited dumbed down version of
2:59
Tugs that was an absolute disaster and
3:01
very low-budget show Why can't we just
3:03
cancel Teen Titans Go already a show
3:06
that is already an insult to the
3:07
original Teen Titans Remember when the
3:09
Teen Titans franchise had a consistent
3:11
tone of being light-hearted and comedic
3:13
while also having a fair share or dark
3:15
and serious moments and had a great
3:17
variety of action scenes that are very
3:19
fun to watch Well now it's just a
3:21
generic comedy show for toddlers that is
3:23
completely devoid of any dark and
3:25
serious moments And even when it does
3:26
have some dark and serious moments with
3:28
a great variety of action scenes they
3:30
are somewhat few and far between The
3:32
quote unquote Teen Titans now act like
3:34
actual toddlers instead of actual
3:36
teenagers Even the special Teen Titans
3:38
versus Teen Titans Go wasn't even a good
3:40
way to bring back the original Teen
3:42
Titans just because the original Teen
3:44
Titans were out of character in this Now
3:46
this show is getting a 10th season which
3:48
is absolutely insane Please just end
3:50
this garbage show already Sadly I don't
3:53
think it's ever going to happen because
3:54
it's the most popular show on Cartoon
3:56
Network and plenty of people are
3:58
watching it more than the original Teen
3:59
Titans Anyway speaking of Teen Titans we
4:02
desperately needed one more season or at
4:04
least a couple more episodes to resolve
4:06
the cliffhanger ending in season 5 Like
4:08
how did Terra come back from the dead
4:10
Who actually is Red X who was
4:12
responsible for the toxin in Slade's
4:14
mask etc I also think season 6 would
4:17
have been Starlight season because if
4:19
you don't know every season focuses on
4:21
one specific member and their character
4:22
development Season 1 focuses on Red
4:25
Robin and his obsession in defeating
4:27
Slade Season 2 focuses on temporary
4:29
Titan Terra who Beast Boy falls in love
4:31
with Season 3 focuses on Cyborg and his
4:34
grudge against the HIV leader Brother
4:36
Blood Season 4 focuses on Raven and her
4:39
evil father the demon lord Trigon Season
4:41
5 focuses on Beast Boy and his maturing
4:44
into a fine hero as foes from his past
4:46
resurfaced to destroy all young heroes
4:48
And Starfire never got an entire season
4:50
to herself And even if she did she only
4:53
an entire feature film to herself called
4:55
Trouble in Tokyo where we get to focus
4:57
on her and her relationship with Robin
4:59
But I do think season 6 would have been
5:01
a great opportunity to expand on her
5:03
character more And of course they missed
5:05
it in favor of baby toddler Titan slop I
5:08
also think we should end Blue after the
5:09
movie Now I know it sounds heartbreaking
5:12
having me say it but hear me out on this
5:14
one because I'm also one of the biggest
5:15
Bluey fans in the world and I absolutely
5:18
adored the first three seasons and think
5:20
they're some of my favorite and best
5:21
seasons of kids TV ever created But Joe
5:24
Brum the creator of the show literally
5:26
went out and said that he is taking a
5:28
break from the show Can't wrap his head
5:29
around to come back and do more seasons
5:31
to himself which would be season 4
5:33
onwards And it's honestly concerning
5:35
Look what happened to Spongebob after
5:37
the movie and the departure of Steven
5:39
Hillenberg This show turned into a
5:41
complete disaster And while seasons four
5:43
five and even nine onwards are the least
5:45
bad of the modern seasons so far they
5:47
just don't capture the same charm of the
5:49
first three seasons Same thing with
5:51
another show After the Thomas the Tank
5:53
Engine Magic Railroad movie flopped at
5:55
the box office Britt Alcraftoft sold her
5:57
company to Gullen during season 6 and 7
6:00
And while season 6 and seven are good
6:02
they do have some issues here and there
6:04
And then hit entertainment acquired
6:06
Gullan and everything became bad and
6:07
formulaic that if you skip some of the
6:09
episodes that follow the same message
6:11
over and over again you'll miss
6:12
absolutely nothing Then Mattel acquired
6:15
Hit Entertainment and brought in new
6:16
headwriters like Andrew Brener and Ian
6:18
McHugh to replace Sharon Miller and
6:20
redeemed the CGI series and the
6:22
franchise in general But then everything
6:25
went bad again with Big World Big Advant
6:27
and then the show ended with a terrible
6:28
whimper And while I do hope the 2026
6:31
project is actually good again the
6:33
reboot Allgin Engines Go is a different
6:35
story and is such a bad reboot you don't
6:37
have to watch it if you want to do a
6:38
challenge marathon and watch the whole
6:40
series Veggie Tales became bad after the
6:43
Jonah movie flopped and then became good
6:45
again in 2019 etc Now Blueie one of the
6:48
best modern kid shows out there today is
6:50
about to get the same treatment as the
6:52
three shows I mentioned Now is there
6:54
someone that can still make the future
6:56
seasons just as good as the first three
6:57
seasons without Joe Brum Yes I'm sure
7:00
there will but I'd rather just not
7:02
continue the franchise after the movie
7:04
than get bad seasons of Blueie But
7:06
anyways this is all I've got for you for
7:08
today These are all the shows I can
7:10
think of that I've watched so far I've
7:12
not watched Peppa Pig or Barney's World
7:14
neither did I have the time to do it
7:15
like I did with Blueie before this video
