Reading through this thread, I see that in actuality, majority of the people have no idea what they're talking about when it comes to CN executive decisions or MOA or TTG or SU or whatever.

CN has much more control than people would think. At some points you guys seem to understand that, and at others you guys seem braindead on this. Though they aren't the ones writing or making animations, designs, episodes, etc., they greenlight anything before it airs. CN greenlights what they believe will appeal to their target audience.

One example of this is the hated TTG, atleast by you guys. I personally also hate TTG. But I can deal with it being on air. And it is for sure their #1 show on CN, both in liking and views. More 6-12 year olds watch CN than 13+ people like you guys. Their target audience, the 6-12 year olds, eat up TTG because it has action, though minimal, as well as what people consider 'humor' at that age.

So yes, TTG makes CN tons of money. Yes, it is a dissappointment to old fans. News flash though, guys. You're 13+. Get over it. If it's really a big problem, stop watching a kids channel or just plain ignore it.

Also, SU, the show you guys seem to praise, is also hated by almost more if not the same amount of people as SU for a lack of story and personality most of the time.

My main point here is that you guys are saying it's CN's fault that MOA didn't control Ben 10 sequels or that the art for the reboot is bad. Well, no. MOA chose their art styles, though it took a few times, all CN did was approve one. And you can look through MOA's concept art. No art styles were even close to other Ben 10 series styles.

Also, MOA didn't leave Ultimate Alien or Alien Force. Hate to break it to you, but they were a big part of those too. They still controlled majority of the franchise, even if they didn't have as big of an influence on it. MOA could've made whatever they wanted to with the sequels. Atleast, until Omniverse. And guess what. Omniverse did it's job. It apealed to the target audience... until it was put into a 6:30 AM time slot. Bad choice by CN led to the show being cancelled and speedily airing the remaining episodes, and CN almost immediately allowed a reboot or sequel.

I guess that concludes my rant.
