Do not look into this terrible hole...for you may see horrible sights like murder, war and people eating KitKat bars sideways.

This thread has been a long time coming. If you haven't been living underneath a Sharptooth's arse, I guarantee you that you've seen this show brought up at least once.

This show is an absolute SENSATION, on the level I haven't seen since Friendship is Magic first got big over a decade ago (GODDAMN I'M OLD ). And not gonna lie...for good reason, this show is great!

In case you don't know, Bluey is a preschool show about a family of technicolor Australian dogs. Along with the titular character, we have her younger sister Bingo, her mom Chili ("Whackadoo!"), and her dad Bandit, whom many would argue is the true star of the show but we don't have time to talk about that lol.

Episodes generally focus on the two imaginative daughters playing fun games together, often with their parents joining in. Sounds simple, and it is, but these games often lead to them or even their parents learning a life-lesson in some form, all with some great animation and AMAZING music. Seriously, one episode managed to make me cheer for a girl PUTTNG HER BACKPACK ON, partially thanks to playing Ode to Joy throughout.

Some episodes really go the extra mile, in fact. "Sleepytime" is a particularly famous episode, with some of the best animation and music in the show, and an incredibly powerful emotional climax that had me blubbering like a baby by the end. In fact, this show is renowned for its ability to elict tears out of even adult viewers. It's just downright impressive.

In general I've seen this show described as a show for both kids AND their parents, with lots of important lessons to share, hilarious adult jokes, and genuinely being able to move people of all ages. And after watching "Sleepytime", yeah I see why. In fact, on IMDB, Bluey was ranked higher than BREAKING BAD for a while. Yeah. Bluey is that good.

If you're curious, it should be available on Disney+...though not every episode is available oops. There's also plenty of content on YouTube about it, if you wanna learn more for yourself. There's NO WAY I can fully go into detail. But, this is a show I'd definitely recommend. Check it out!

(also GOD is that theme tune catchy...)

I'm a girl who enjoys strategy and planning out when it comes to the games I play. So it's only natural tower defense games will appeal to me! This is a thread I've created for discussion of the tower defense genre - share our experiences, make jokes, recommend certain games, and just talk. Stuff like that really.

Playing Plants vs Zombies' Survival Endless can be pretty tricky. A lot of my usual strats, even for the pool levels, don't really work out and I end up looking like a darned fool when a zombie waltzes through my defenses and chows on my grey matter. Lots of strategies I've seen usually involve abusing the hell out of Gloom-Shrooms and Cob Cannons, but ugh getting all that sun is HARD I JUST WANT MORE PLANTS FOR MY ZEN GARDEN, CONFOUND IT!

Meanwhile I've also gotten into Bloons TD6. My main goal is to fully level up all the monkeys I have and grind up Monkey Money to buy other heroes. Which is taking forever, lol. But no-one said it would be easy. And no, I ain't paying money to win this thing! As much of a sucker as I can be at times.

But I'll shush for now, and let others take it from here. Feel free to share your tower defense experiences!

So, it wasn't long ago that a new Disney show called Hamster and Gretel came out. This show is the latest creation of Dan Povenmire and Jeff "Swampy" Marsh - a famous duo of Disney workers who have been well-regarded by Disney fans for...over a decade now!

So let's take you all through the three major Dan-Swampy Disney cartoons, cuz I'd love to discuss them with you guys.

Phineas and Ferb
Okay so this is the one you're probably most familiar with. In this show we follow the lives of two stepsiblings who are on summer vacation who spend their days doing the craziest, wildest stuff to make the most of their time off school. In the process, their older sister Candace tries her best to catch the two in the act and show off what they're doing to their parents. Meanwhile, the family's pet platypus Perry lives a secret life as an agent for a company based on thwarting the evil plans of a great many villains, with Perry's heroics usually against Dr. Doofenshmirtz of 🎵Doofenshmirtz Evil Incorporated!🎵

The show usually follows close to a certain formula. Phineas and Ferb decide to do a thing, Candace tries to catch them, their friend Isabella drools over Phineas, Perry runs off to fight Dr. Doofenshmirtz and stop his evil plans, Perry succeeds, "Curse you, Perry the Platypus!", Candace fails to catch her brothers doing a thing... rinse and repeat ad infinitum. I realize it doesn't sound TOO exciting, but the show has a LOT of fun with its formula, throwing in all sorts of twists and witty jokes. But I'll shut up about this one for now cuz...let's face it, you all know about it by now

Milo Murphy's Law
This is probably my favorite of the three. Taking place in the same town as the above, we follow the life of the titular Milo Murphy, an ancestor of the man who defined Murphy's Law - "if it can go wrong, it will". Due to his heritage, Milo deals with extreme and uncontrollable bad luck - but he's very optimistic and is usually prepared for anything. He's accompanied by his two best friends - Melissa, a fun and snarky tomboy with a heart of gold, and Zack, a neurotic but good-hearted nerd who is new to town.

This show is a mite more complex than its predecessor, with exciting running plots that move at a nice pace along with the generally slice-of-life episodes. The Murphy family curse of bad luck may be what the show focuses on, but it has a very idealistic tone and the main three friends clearly love each other a lot, and I think this is one of the most likable main casts of any show I've seen. Melissa in particular might be Sprig Plantar's competition for my favorite Disney TV character period. She's just so adorable, likable and funny, she's a major comfort character for me right now. I'd go into more detail on why I'm such a fan of this show, but I do NOT want to spoil it for you. Just watch it for yourself, it's amazing!

Hamster and Gretel
This is the latest of the three. In this one, a young girl and her pet hamster are given super-powers by an alien race, and thus, the two get up to numerous superheroics while trying to hide their identity. They're helped along the way by the girl's long-suffering older brother ("There's also Kevin in the mini-van!"), who tries to deal with his daily teenager life while also helping his younger sister lead her double life.

It's kinda early to tell how much I'll end up liking this show right now, because WOO does it have a lot to live up to...and I often feel really bad for Kevin, the poor guy's been dealt a really cruddy hand by life and I don't always find his treatment that funny. But the show DOES have a lot of funny moments in its own right...I mean come on, it's a superhero parody made by the Phineas and Ferb guys! Of COURSE it's got some great comedy

Anyway, those are the three major Dan and Swampy cartoons that exist right now. I'm curious to know your thoughts!

Sprig decided to take an all-nighter to play Spore all night and drunk coffee to help keep him awake. The hotel room was a mess that morning

Well, the 6teen RP thread I did went almost nowhere. Oh well. Shows me for trying to create an RP for a show as obscure as 6teen.

But after more thinking and chatting with friends, I came up with a perhaps BETTER idea: a massive crossover (in the style of Insane Cafe) that essentially brings together...almost every Canadian cartoon ever in a clash for the ages. Everyone is here! Essentially, it's a mega-crossover war fic, but as an RP.

The main cartoon in this, AKA the one focus will initially be on before introducing the other Canadian cartoons will be the famous My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. Other major cartoons will include FreshTV's works, Detentionaire and probably Ed, Edd n' Eddy too. In fact there will be a LOT of major cartoons - I just need help deciding which ones will be more major than others.

The plot is this...

Taking place after "The Last Problem", a ruthless sociopath Pegasus named Shadowmoth is tired of the way Equestria is, and wants to turn things around to the way she wants things to be...AKA, committing crimes, manipulating others to work under her, and eventually amassing a huge army of Equestrian creatures to take over Equestria...and beyond. After finding an old artifact that can reverse petrification, she uses it to free Cozy Glow from her stone prison. Shadowmoth takes her in as her protege, and by working together, the two Pegasi become the most feared criminals in Equestria.

The Dragon Lands, however, sense something is afoot...or ahoof, as it might be. Dragon Lord Ember calls Spike in for aid, and the dragons all work together to find some way to deal with Shadowmoth's growing power. However as waves of crime continue to engulf Equestria, Shadowmoth seeks a way to break the mysterious "Blackened Barrier" - a mysterious wall that shields the edges of the Equestrian countries from other kingdoms far away. And if Shadowmoth finds a way to break through the Barrier, total war will descend...

Is there anyone out in the universe that can stop Shadowmoth?

That is what Ember sets out to find out...

LEGIONS OF SHADOWMOTH - An RP by HotelValleyfornia

I'm currently trying to figure out what some of the main cartoons would be...
MLP is obvious
FreshTV's works and Detentionaire would obviously be heavily involved, knowing me Been thinking of having Caitlin (6teen) and Tina (Detentionaire) play big roles
Ed, Edd n' Eddy is a must (bring on Sarah and the howitzers!)
Totally Spies and Grossology would fit into a war story perfectly
Paw Patrol would also fit in well if the pups add some military bells and whistles to their equipment. Skye for MVP!
Clone High should probably be added in as well

Here's a full list of Canadian cartoons. I wanna use as many of these as I can

I'll need help deciding what'd be the best plan of attack for writing this RP. Who would be fighting Shadowmoth, and who would aid her army in the hopes of her sparing them? Who from each side will turn traitor and go to the other side? What kinds of military weaponry will each side use? (have fun, Serris ) Questions like this. Your input is valued!

Here's some extra bits:
- My OCs will almost definitely get involved. So aside from Shadowmoth, expect to see Elsie, Paige, Caleb, Sabrina, and probably numerous other OCs too.
- This website will probably help a lot with some of the planning. Have fun with it!
- I might create a music playlist for it too.
- I might include the Windigos as someone for Shadowmoth to work alongside, since all the sheer hate she exudes would draw them in like a magnet. Of course, she'd probably betray them knowing her

Anyway, that's all I'm thinking of for now. Your advice and suggestions wanted! This'll take a LOT of planning, but I'd be fascinated to see it play out
