Video - How CoComeon HIJACKED YouTube

I must be good at avoiding YouTube Kids Cartoons like the plague, because I didn't even know that Cocomelon was a thing until I saw some merchandise for it at Target one time. Even if I did know about it, I likely wouldn't have watched it because, at 37 years old, I have long since passed the target demographic for the cartoons. Still, knowing that it has conquered YouTube in just a few short years, how it keeps kids mesmerized, keeps them calm, keeps them occupied for hours on end...it just goes to show how a franchise had gone from being obscure in the mid-2000s to the giant phenomenon it is today. And yeah...it will be interesting to see just how much Cocomelon continues to grow, and how (or if) kids cartoons on YT might be regulated in the future. Cocomelon seems harmless enough, but we have seen far worse, from the godawful YT Kids Cartoons from years past to shameless ripoffs of other properties (*cough*Wolfoo*cough*). These kids cartoons have resurged with a vengeance...when will it end? At this rate, possibly never! Also, I should give a ginormous trophy to Henri for his usual top-notch editing, from the brilliant intro to the numerous other jokes and references scattered throughout. It seems to me that his editing-awesome as it was to begin with-just keeps getting better with every video that he helps you with, which makes him a super valuable member to your team. It just pleases me to see how your videos have improved in quality over time...I just can't wait to see what you have planned next (likely your Turning Red review will be coming our way in a few days' time...I'll likely share my thoughts on it when you share yours!), as your videos continue to bring me joy as I close in on being a part of the Saber fandom for two years! I'll see you real soon, Saber! =)
