Amazing World of Gumball's Future

Ben Bocquelet is tweeting that he is bringing Gumball to an end after it's sixth
season...or maybe it's just him departing after the sixth season...

Nah. Steven Universe is dope and so is Teen Titans Go. Clarence is alright. We Bare Bears is funny.

I can't stand Steven Universe. I used to like it, but it's way too preachy now.

I liked the first season but haven't really cared much for most of the rest. Besides 6 seasons is a respectable run for an animated series.

I never cared for Gumball. From the few clips I've seen, it's certainly creative and kinda funny...but it never really stuck with me.

I was afraid of that. I haven't seen Steven Universe, but I had a big impression that it was going to be too preachy or overly-dependent on lesbian-pandering. I'll watch it over Teen Titans GO any day of the freaking year.

TTG is very hit-or-miss for me. They'll regularly take an idea that's funny once and stretch it into an entire episode, and completely ruin the joke. But when they're funny, they're really funny (The Colors of Raven is hilarious!)

Steven's over dependence on pacifism is another issue I've seen people take issue with. I don't mind that bit actually, it's nice to have a character who's quite the optimist, seeing the good in a bad situation, and bad things still happen despite those good intentions.

TTG has gotten a lot better now IMO. There's a lot of good self-referential jokes in there, both poking at the show's reception and DC in general. (One episode has the Titans digging through junk in their attic, and in the background there is a box labeled YJ S3.)
