Merry...After-Christmas! For those of you that have been reading my posts, I have sent another one as an Xmas gift. This time, I am talking about adult cartoons. Aside from kids' cartoons, there are also ones made for adults. Adult cartoons are basically cartoons, but with more "mature" stuff in them. These shows are possibly for any kids from ages 12 and up, if not younger, and these are some I decided to bring up.
The Simpsons is not only the longest-running American sitcom but it helped FOX become an addition to the main networks on television. The Simpsons was an early hit for FOX, which at the time was starting to have a weekly primetime schedule. The show had a cast full of characters with plenty of humorous jokes they had to share. The show is so popular across America that The Simpsons were awarded a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on January 14, 2000, and Homer's catchphrase "Doh!" was included in the English Dictionary. The Simpsons made it well past the 90s, but the show's existence on television is nearly hitting the end. Critics said the show's 10th season was the point where the show declined in quality. Needless to say, The Simpsons is (and will probably stay) FOX's official mascot.
The most talked about show of the 1997 - 1998 TV season wasn't on any of the major networks at all. It was a show called "South Park", and it aired on Comedy Central. South Park was rated TV-MA for its mature content. The show centered on four foul-mouthed elementary school kids: Stan, Kyle, Eric Cartman, and Kenny, the kid who wore his hood so tight his mouth wasn't shown. South Park's adult humor and racism led to the show's success for adults, but it did lead to a few episodes being pulled, like one episode that tried to do something no show in America ever does. A common running gag (until Season 6) was Kenny always getting into brutal accidents, and Stan and Kyle saying "Oh my gosh, he/she/they killed Kenny!" The show also went from cut-out animation to computer animation.
Family Guy was FOX's hit for the new century. This show, claimed to be "a Simpsons rip-off", was possibly the first FOX show to have more adult humor and profanity than The Simpsons did. Family Guy was ended twice until it remained on FOX since its fourth season in 2005. Family Guy was the vehicle to making Seth MacFarlane the king of adult animation. Family Guy, according to some critics, said that basically each episode does whatever it wants, and sometimes, it could get kind of boring. An example was how "sadly" they killed of Brian for a small period on the show's 12th season. The show also carries "cutaway" gags, where a character says something and it shows what the character is talking about.
I think adult cartoons are great in their own kind, and the more produced, the more there will be. I also want to bring up another one, but I'll save that next time.

YouTube Plans
I have a YouTube channel. It is in the making, and is on YouTube right now. I started YouTube Video Editor on my first try today, and just did a bit of practice.
I joined on October 25, 2014, and will not post an actual video probably until January 2015. Until then, I have watched a lot of videos on YouTube to get my ideas.
One idea I made was to make fake VHS openings and closings on my channel. The idea was inspired by the recently retired TheMrJohnnyBoy1998, who is well-known for his fake VHS openings via GoAnimate. He briefly had a second channel until he left YouTube, and I will gladly take over his fake VHS openings. The videos are only VHS openings and closings separately, as I don't want to upload full movie content and it will also lead to copyright issues. If he still is answering YouTube comments, I want to ask him how he gets his videos from YouTube and puts them on YouTube Video Editor. That is my question.
My second idea was to do a Minecraft PE Survival Series. I like Minecraft (as seen from my name and my first blogpost) and have recently heard the new Amazon Kindle Fire Tablet has a camera and recording system. I hopefully will get something like that for Christmas. I have had a large history with the game since February 2014, and if you see my first post, you'll hear more about it.
My third idea was to become an animation critic like YouTubers Pieguyrulz and TheMysteriousMrEnter. I will do a new series soon called "Animation Abomination", which talks about me criticizing animated cartoon episodes, similar to MrEnter's "Animated Atrocities" series. One idea I had in that same category was to review the Ren & Stimpy episode "Man's Best Friend", which was a banned episode of the show due to its violent content. It may not be a bad episode, but violence will do the trick.
These are all my ideas for my future YouTube channel, coming in January (hopefully).
