Frederator Films launched...

Ahem... a correction...'

Fred Seibert's partnered with Kevin Kolde and Eric Gardner, with all three acting as producers on the projects. Seibert's the former president of Hanna-Barbera and longtime producer via Frederator Studios, which debuted a decade ago with "Oh Yeah! Cartoons" for Cartoon Network; that show spun off "Cow & Chicken," "Powerpuff Girls" and "Dexter's Laboratory," and Frederator followed with "The Fairly OddParents," "ChalkZone" and "My Life as a Teenage Robot" for Nickelodeon.

oh Yeah Cartoons was on NICKELODEON, not Cartoon Network. Cn's show was called "World Premire Toons" then renamed "What A Cartoon!"

Fairly Oddparents and Chalkzone came out of Oh Yeah Cartoons. FOP I love, I don't really like Chalkzone at all.

Crap. Well, it wasn't my fault, it was the article's, so whatever.

I loved Chalkzone! I love Fairly Odd Parents, too, but it gets old really fast.

Funny... I wouldn't have minded if you made the mistake... but this was an atricle. Dude screwed up his reasearch!

I feel the same way. The adult stupidity and continuitity get annoying.

 

[Ilikemuppets]

Yeah, For me it's been the lack of new episodes because there's only so many times and so much I can take hatching them over again. It's good on the first couple of times but mot much redeeming value there.

Meanwhile, Danny Phantom has risen in quality immensely. What was once a fairly corny show is now something else entirely. It's fun to watch, the dialogue is much snappier, and the voice actors have grown into their parts really well. Not to mention the more fluid animation.

Plus, unlike most Nick shows, they follow the continuity they create to a T.

Yeah, I really like Danny Phantom, but it drives me crazy that it's the same style as Fairly Odd Parents. Danny Phantom is actually pretty complex, there is a continuity - which is different than most cartoons - and the characters evolve. The overly-simplistic style just doesn't seem to fit the tone of the show for me.

It's similar to the show 6teen, which is done on Toonboom I think, instead of traditional animation. Those characters get hired, get fired, date people, get dumped, etc. and the story can continue from episode to episode, and you really get a sitcom feel. And the style is cartoony, but slightly more realistic (especially the way they colour the characters). There's just something about the Danny Phantom style, that I can't buy into it as a sitcom. It would be like Winnie-the-Pooh doing Shakespeare or something. Just a bizarre fit.
