Clifford the Big Red Dog (2019)
What gives with the look? The show is now ablest.
I do not like the new style at all. Clifford looks like he was drawn in the dark by a drunk first year art student. Every time I see the uncolored white bits on his nose I make a disgruntled noise and my lips involuntarily curl in disgust. At first I thought they were trying to be retro but the original books at least colored in his nose all the way. Also Emily Elizabeth looks nothing like she did in the original books. However it still looks very raw unrefined and more like characters in development. The point of a reboot is to improve on what's there NOT draw back the quality to the old original books. I do not see why they couldn't just keep the old drawing style while introducing the new lesbian characters. I miss T bone and his chubby dumb sheriff. I miss Cleo being over the top with her cuteness. I miss Mac being as stuck up and snoody as Jetta. But most of all Ii miss the three legged dog, KC. KC was out there repping the disabled community and making it normal to be disabled way before other shows caught on. Now he's gone along with the two little kids that were Emily's friends in wheelchairs. I'm angered and disappointed that these trailblazers are no longer around to help teach children that being disabled makes you no different than anyone else. Also I can't help but notice that the colored kids are gone now. I'm sorry I don't think slapping in a gay couple and calling it good is an excuse for this. If there is room in the world for disabled people, colored people and gay people, there is room for them both in your age old reboot, PBS.
