Terrible Animation

Can someone tell me why all of CN's cartoons now have this "Adventure Time" animation style? I know Adventure Time was a huge hit, but do they really have to copy its style on every single one of their cartoons? I can't take this show seriously. What was wrong with the animation style from the original Justice League, Justice League: Unlimited, Young Justice, or Teen Titans? Is this animation style cheaper or quicker to churn out episodes? I know Avatar/Korra had a problem with this, but that animation was outstanding.

The show doesn´t take itself seriously in the first place. It was never meant to. It´s fun, great fun, and it´s all that matters.

I´m Commander Shepard and Liara is the hottest girl in the galaxy.

"Is this animation style cheaper or quicker to churn out episodes?"

YES! This IS the reason for the animation style - and it plays well with younger kids. For us adults - we've got the great writing of Paul Dini, Alan Burnett, Stan Berkowitz, etc to help entertain us. Also - you get used to the style - least I have. This style is going to allow them to make 52 episodes a year - which is awesome. I'll sacrifice a bit of art to get great stories any day - and most of these eps have been great - especially considering the 11 min runtime. But if you're looking for stellar animation AND stellar writing - you're in luck cause Young Justice finally returns for Season 3 this year - can't wait! But until then - I'm really enjoying JLA - much more than I thought I would.

I guess it's a cost cutting measure. It doesn't look as bad as Teen Titans Go, at least from what I saw from commercials.

Whatever you are, be a good one.
