Reply to Currently on the last season of 'Head of the Class' (random thoughts, no spoilers!) by mikeymiggz

Brian Robbins (Eric, the leather-jacketed rebel) became a producer later on. I remember him scouting my old high school for a TV project he was working on that was supposed to be “Bruce Wayne’s life as a high school student before he became Batman.” That didn’t work out (rights issues, I suppose), but he did wind up doing a similar show: one about Clark Kent’s high school years before he became Superman (they of course couldn’t use my old school anymore). You may know it from when it ran for a while on the WB/CW Network.

"Fun but not good" tells me something, but "like a live action cartoon" does not - especially not in the context of Star Wars media.

The explication posted by the other commenter doesn't particularly sound "cartoonlike", it just sounds like an action/adventure serial.

I mean Looney Tunes, Batman Beyond, and Bojack Horseman are all cartoons. Aside from all being cartoons, I can't think of much else they have in common, where you could say "oh yeah this just feels like a live action version of all of those".

Disney loves people with takes like this. “It doesn’t matter how bad it is, we still make money!”

And what’s your point? Kids aren’t worthy of having good television shows? If anything we should be making sure shows for kids are really good with life lessons and positive lessons.

Based on your logic Sesame Street shouldn’t exist at all. “Who cares? It’s useless drivel made for kids anyways”
