For now. People will stop inserting as the victim sooner or later.

The reason I say "creator-based" is that the shows are entirely brought up from the ground with no relation to a long running existing franchise, such as Looney Tunes or Tom and Jerry.

Slapstick only works if the animation is solid and frequent
That’s not happening, that’s why talking is more preferred as they can stand there

and more something like Ed Edd n Eddy and Ren and Stimpy.

Yes, in the United States

it's still has its fans but it's hard to push with those disgusting anime loving lore demanding manchildren obsessing over cartoons

there's only so many times you bash and slap characters around and make wacky faces before it becomes tiresome. A mix of slapstick and dialogue is more desirable right now if anything. Characters need to be more than one note punching bags now.

Yeah, pretty much like this.

It's just that so many slapstick gags have become stock. At this point it's difficult to come up with something truly unpredictable and novel. However if you want your cartoon to be more than a dull pastiche this is what you need to do.

I see slapstick as a synonym for visual humor

This, Uncle Grandpa was an arguably well-made cartoon, but because it doesn't have muh lore it was shunned an written off.

>le-french-tom-and-jerry
>It's about cockroaches

I like both.

Uncle Grandpa was pretty good, really weird and random comedy, like What the cartoon in the 90's. Saddly it fell in the shadow of AT and Steven Universe.

Have you seen this one, Op?

It's pretty good.

>script-hating creators like John K. killed scripts
>but slapstick died anyways
>now all we get are unfunny generic comedy skits without even the writing talent

based

Only oldfags and latinos like slapstick.

For creator-based cartoons, the last one I can think of was Gumball. Most modern cartoon pitches are more interested in adventure, setting-based, or character-based cartoons than pure slapstick.

Most modern slapstick cartoons are produced by the studio and based on existing properties. I think there's still a market for that kind of stuff, but no one's going to make their pitch stand out by basing it on slapstick.

Also, sad to say, no generation of animators has been as good at slapstick as the one from the 1940s. Must be that vaudeville influence.

Teen Titans GO has slapstick

But it's not "Creator Based" as OP said. It's a spin-off of an adaptation of a comic book.

What about gumball

>Western cartoons are low effort garbage that put zero effort into their art and creators these days use the animation is for kids excuse to not try.
>Anime looks like a work of art, has beautiful women with tits because you're allowed to draw tits in anime, and made for adults with great stories that you love
Gee user, which do you think the public will love?

Cartoons are more popular than anime. What is even your point?

One is considered for adults and the other is considered for children.

that wasn't my point you fucking retard

>One is considered for adults
By weebs. The general public consider all kind of animation a thing of kids. Do you think people think Dragon Ball and Pokemon are for adults? They love them but still think they are for kids.

t. angry incel who thinks cartoons should be his porn

I already mentioned Gumball. It's the last one I can think of.

Yep. That's why there's no slapstick anime.

You sure like flattening, don't you?

Slapstick is a tool, not a genre.

Many types of visual humor count as slapstick; people will keep using it whether they realize it or not.

This, unfortunately.
