People like different things though. I absolutely love some of your preference and don’t like others. Only way to know whether you’ll like the show is to check it out. There’s a chance you will like it but only you would know for sure.

Reply to comment by reddit455 in Serious question, does anyone think AI could replace voice actors that have either passed away or otherwise left a series? by [deleted]
Also, Disney got into trouble in the past because when they made TailSpin, Baloo's voice actor was so close to the original Jungle Book actor that the family sued for royalties. It's why the show never lasted more than a season.

They walked away because of “creative differences” I mean I think Netflix already announced that Katara is now older than Sokka which changes a lot about their characters so there’s something right there. They probably just made too many changes and the OG creators were just done

First off, no you haven't. At least not from people who actually care about good television.
Secondly, you could just as easily have searched this on google and found other reddit posts where people have asked the exact same thing about this show and gotten your answers from there. Which it seems like you've already done if you've kept hearing it's one of the best. Because people around the water cooler are definitely not talking about it anymore considering it ended like 4 years ago. So I'm not sure why you felt you needed to ask the same damn question yourself on your own post where it sounds like you already had your answer from the masses.

No, they're terrific in their absurdity.
There was a VOLCANO at a mini-golf course. A shark on the highway. So many people stuck on Ferris wheels.

If you were an adult in the late 80s through mid 90s, you could have been a part of the writer's room. They had an open submissions policy; they would take scripts from anyone. Ronald D. Moore, who ended up as a TNG and DS9 producer, was some random guy working a dead end job when he submitted a script to Paramount.

Maybe I'm misremembering here, but I'm pretty sure it only seriously retcons one thing and that one thing is possibly the greatest twist in the history of television. Mainly because it's something we all should have seen coming and was right in front of our noses the entire time, but nobody actually figured it out. That's the mark of an excellent twist.

Was Everybody Hates Chris dubbed or did it have subtitles?

I'll check it out. When it comes to 90's sitcoms, there is no denying "Roseanne" was hysterical.

It's on Fox Nation... the Fox streaming service for Fox News ultrafans who are also technically proficient enough to figure out how to do streaming... yup.

Max and Liz on Roswell. Their love is everything.
And I will never not see the actress that played That Bitch Tess as anything but That Bitch Tess.
Booth and Bones. They compliment eachother.

So that's why they left the live action show? Doubtful. They seemed pretty salty about it.

Apparently , Baywatch's demographics were 65% women.
>The audience was 65 percent female,[11] with its number one audience being women aged 18 to 34. Speaking in 2001, Schwartz explained that, after doing focus groups on Baywatch for about five years, they learned that the show appealed to this demographic because "most of [its] lead characters were strong, independent women who were heroic, who were saving lives, who were equal to men".[12]
I was a kid when Baywatch was on, but I do remember the jokes on Friends about Chandler and Joey watching it for Pam Anderson and Yasmine Bleeth running in slow motion.
