In my personal belief, anything on a channel that is aimed at kids should focus on kids. If adults like it, all the better. For instance, My Little Ponies. They didn't change things because there are now a few hundred adult Bronies on forums.

I love DC's universe for one thing... the "adult" stories are separated and they make adults pay for them. kids stuff is on tv stations and streaming. I wish Marvel and Hasbro did the same thing. If I WANT a depressed, moody, angsty Spider-Man, I can by a DVD or streaming code. If I want a kids show, I turn on Disney+ or Disney XD. I really wish Hasbro would make a Transformers disc series so that I can finally be rid of the adults who whine about how Hasbro has destroyed their childhood by making kids cartoons. This way, they can have an animated "Wreckers" story and other IDW stuff and I can enjoy content with my younger family members.

Yeah, we don't agree. Kids benefit from material that's thought provoking. Having worked with kids in a variety of capacities for a long time, I respect providing children with protection from adult subject matter, but I'd never advocate infantilizing them or dumbing down content. Shows like Rebels and Avatar are great examples of a happy medium. However, you and I seem to be talking about two different things.
