>Lauren Faust, the creator of hit shows such as My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic and DC Superhero Girls recently spoke in an interview with Collider, where she felt the current era of animation is the worst it's ever been
>''The truth of it is that it's been hard for anything that isn't based on an existing IP to get greenlit. From a business standpoint it makes sense since from the point of view of the execs it guarantees more return on their investment due to having brand recognition. Sadly it seems like every year fewer and fewer original ideas have even gotten past the pitching stage and instead the execs decide to look at a past show or popular IP to reboot especially at Netflix. It doesn't help that more than half of these shows from my experience don't seem to have the heart and soul put into them compared to a show that came from scratch.
>The entire reason why the revivals of The Powerpuff Girls and Foster's happened is due to the current state the industry is in. If you want to work in this industry, you have to adapt and sadly this is where the industry is at currently. It's honestly very sad if you look at it, the industry has not seen this level of creative lows since the 80s and in my opinion it might even be worse than that period.''
