User blog comment:Thedramamaster/The worst episode of every TD season/@comment-2212492-20160816184856/@comment-26910203-20160816231059

I'm sorry I really hate the "aimed at kids" argument. Yes, maybe we all are being a little too negative but there is nothing wrong with criticism...I don't think the BC should have said these episodes are what the 'fandom' considers the worst either because at the end of the day it comes down to opinions. Obviously, there are ups and downs to every season but this person's blog simply focuses on the negative, there is nothing really wrong with that or the discussions that ensued. There is nothing stopping anyone else from making a "positive" blog either.

More on the "aimed at kids". As Dip said, something being "aimed at kids" does not excuse it for having bad or terrible writing, additionally I see no reason why they shouldn't try to appeal more to the older audience either. A large amount of cartoons are capable of doing both consistently and successfully. Look at Spongebob seasons 1-3 and then the latest seasons, both are "aimed at kids" and I'm sure you can pinpoint which one is objectively better. Adventure Time, Steven Universe and Gumball are all also "aimed at kids". Critically acclaimed movies such as Sprited Away, The Iron Giant, Wall-E and Inside Out are also "aimed at kids" and simultaneously have impeccable writing. Something being "aimed at kids" does not make it okay to be mediocre, while animation can entertain it can also be an art form.
