This Show is ADHD as Humanly Possible
I've seen a couple of episodes of this cartoon, and I'm currently watching an episode as I'm typing this.
I never was a huge fan of it. It wasn't particularly great to me, but it wasn't horrible either.
Nevertheless, over the course of the episodes that I have watched, I've noticed something:
This show is scripted like it's on overdrive. Its story pacing is a 100 miles per hour energy drink sugar rush.
I've watched three episodes in a row, currently on the third. I literally have a headache right now; I had to take an aspirin powder while following this show's plot-lines for 3 episodes straight. That isn't an exaggeration.
I understand that this show is for children, however so are all other children's cartoons. I've not yet seen a show that has such an ADD pacing as Johnny Test.
This... this here as I was typing; in the course of 1 minute, AT the opening of an episode, there was: an opening involving Johnny's father, the explanation for the entire main plot of the episode, 2 hyper-jumpy-spaz-outs by two separate characters (followed 15 seconds afterward, by a third) and, there was a fade-out flashback. . . Johnny's father just blur finger-dialed a 7-digit number on his phone, in less than one second.
Well the aspirin is starting to work now and my head has stopped pounding at least.
