Whatever Happened to... Robot Jones?

This was & is probably one of my favorite cartoons ever to air on CN. Robot Jones is an incredibly visually exciting show to watch. The animation is interesting and quite well done, obviously paying homage to 'Schoolhouse Rock.' When reviewers here complain of "awful animation," they are obviously speaking of the art style employed. It's an intentionally shoddy look - things are supposed to look sketchy and scratchy. It's a shame that some potential viewers could be thrown off by these inaccurate reviews. I found it to be a very fun, amusing, & engaging program. Certainly a lot better than the Americanized-anime action programs they've got running now.

As you can see by my username, i AM IN LOVE WITH THIS SHOW. It is funny, imaginative, and intresting. I mostly like the 80's feel, which is what it takes place in. Also some the character development is CRISP as bacon. Tbh, i have never really liked shows about school except maybe Doug and a few others but it's just kinda boring to me. But this one takes it! I actually don't really know why i love this show so much besides the 3 reasons i first said. I also really like Robot Jones's computer generated voice, and i actually didn't mind the Bobby Block human voice as other people easily get irritated with it. Overall it is a nice and fun show and i am practically ADDICTED to this. And if they reboot this show. ATLEAST MAKE IT GOOD! Because there have been some OTHER cartoon reboots and... yeah they were terrible, anyways overall i love this show and yeah. Plot: A, Jokes: A-. Character Development: A+, Storylines: B+, Overall: A.

This is a really cool show. The best aspect of it is the macintosh computer voice. I wish they had it on more often (I'm pretty sure Cartoon Network took it off their schedule). I guess some people might not understand everything, but I think it is a fun show nonetheless.

Once again Cartoon Network blew it with a hilarious show. Yes, jokes were aimed at adults, but so is Spongebob. This could have been the next Spongebob, but Cartoon Network dropped the ball and a big $ opportunity. They are such morons. The episode where Robot refuses to shower is the funniest 15 min of animation outside of the Simpsons. Robot Jones had much potential but wasn't really given a chance for some reason and in a classic moment of TV exec idiocy, they kept running the same 4 episodes for so long, people lose interest - I even gave up on it after telling many people how funny this little show I discovered was. really a major disappointment that soured me to Cartoon Network ever since. Man, are they that stupid?

The style was fantastic.

Usually when something is a "throwback" or "retro" it misses the point of the aesthetic of the era it is throwing back to.

It was a beautifully dirty looking cartoon (By dirty I mean dirty, not sexual or anything) but to look so intentionally is a brilliant choice... brilliantly executed.

Sometimes surreal, sometimes expressionistic, it's a cartoon that uses it's medium to its potential. The animation itself becomes part of the overall look of the show.

Obviously intended to recall the style of Shool House Rock Animation, Robot Jones is still sorely missed.

Not being a kid anymore, I wasn't an avid watcher of Saturday morning Cartoons, but I found this one irresistible. Sorry to see that it has gone.
