The YouTube mention has some updated replies, including people believing that Mr. Enter shouldn't be labeled a lolcow despite taking his toons seriously to the point of comical exaggeration and some jabs at OPL.

Writing Tips Episode #1 Never Assume It's Funny - YouTube (1).png
 
That one guy says lolcows are horrible people. I don't find Jace or Eli to be horrible people, I just find them to be extremely stupid and entertaining.

it's not so bad colours wide when you've been playing Earthbound for the past 5 years (the PSI effects and the battle backgrounds are more than enough to cause seizures). I was more terrified by the character designs, particularly the robot character. He looks like he keep staring into my soul every time he looks towards the viewer... :(

They all do. And those lips make them all look like bee sting victims.

Unfortunately, the Treehouse of Horror ripoff isn't the only episode he did. I took the time to read multiple episodes, and god were they awful and generic. Here's my "favorite" one, and Enter's attempt at an "emotional" story.

Here we have gems such as asshole kids (who are guardians for that matter), a shitty musical number, tons of unfunny jokes (he literally steals a gag from the SpongeBob movie, guising it as a "reference"), melodrama, and the main characters hijacking a car (again demonstrating Enter's unadulterated hypocrisy). What a FUN one indeed.

Just add some dingy skyscrapers into that musical number and we'd be flying dangerously close to Redesigning Eva territory.

MrEnter claims this is a family show. Having flicked through three scripts I'm really struggling to see the appeal, if anything it seems to be aimed more at his own fanbase who probably understand the humour in some of those confusing, unfunny jokes.

The script reeks of blandness and lack of passion. It's like Enter didn't even ENJOY writing it.

I feel like Enter has gone above and beyond in making his crappy cartoon. There's nothing to make it stand out at all, and it's really just "Here's kids going through kid problems." It's not interesting, hell he doesn't even give an explanation on how his cartoon's universe works.

I feel the problem with his "scripts" isn't the use of cliches (though while it is bad, I've seen this with all writers. Even the good ones tend to fall onto these every now and again).

No, the main problem I have with him is how he writes and his lack of humor. You can tell from both the scripts and his videos that he's trying, yet failing, to tell jokes. Even when he's ranting about something you can kinda see him trying to be humorous with the screechy tone he uses ala Doug Walker. Also while I said the cliches aren't the main problem, he seems to use both the lamest and stupidest ones both as jokes and plots. And this is before the heavy amount of spelling and punctuation errors and the unlikeable and bland cast he's cooked up for this series. I know little to nothing about the characters aside from their looks, genders and the (extremely) bare basics, if that.

Also, there's the little fact of how he's writing scripts about something he hates. Doesn't that seem a bit hypocritical to anyone?

Well, now I'm even more tempted to list shows with writing better than his - one of those includes Teen Titans Go! (and unlike some examples I'd actually be proud to list - I rather don't care for or about TTG!, BTW (and am well aware of why most people hate that show, too... Without going into detail...).

And those shows I was aiming to list are either unpopular or easily bashed for good reasons whenever fit. All of them are still better than whatever the fuck Enter thinks he is doing, IMHO.

Eh - it's not like this cartoon will ever get picked up by any major studio - it'll be lucky to make it onto YouTube if he even gets the money to go that route (which knowing all of his fantards, that is something I can't help but dread royally!).

You know, I don't even understand how he even expects any major work on this show to get finished. Animation takes a ton of work and he only has a few random people on Deviantart helping him out. Does he just expect Cartoon Network or something to hand him an entire studio to produce this?

Word of mouth, man.

When those Cartoon Network execs hear about his cartoon, they'll be coming to him.

Just a brief update: I've coddled together a small "sample" script test and I'm currently rehearsing. I'll put a link to it when it's done - I want to hear what you guys have to say about it and how I can improve it.

If you have any particular points you'd like me to cover - please let me know so that I can put them in the proper script. The more input I get from all of you, the better the finished product will be! :)
 
I've noticed that Mr.Enter mentions specific tropes from TVTropes constantly. He also doesn't really do anything to cue his viewers into the animations he's talking about.
 
Yeah, TV Tropes is one of the #1 websites autistic people frequently visit, contribute to, and reference for whatever reason....
