You're right! People need to let the dead rest and respect creator's wishes. Look what happened to spongebob. If they wanted to reboot the show, they should've done more episodes with the same original look and get rid of the ai generated cocomelon look if the network cared so much about older shows. They could have added a new character too. I would have loved to see an autistic character. If I was in charge, I'd add new songs with different genres that weren't in the show before, we'd get to see the inside of the houses or even have an episode where it's raining, and the kids play inside. It still has a lot of potential. Why not go for it in that direction?

EXACTLY. I'd rather they rebooted the show with the original art style instead of turning them into the shit we see in kids shows today and completely erasing Tasha and Austin. I'm angry over this direction, especially when all the songs they've remade sound like absolute ass.

What got you into motley crue?

oh that's a fun and long and convoluted story, actually!

back in 2017, I got really into glam metal by buying a Twisted Sister album (Best of the Atlantic Years) on sale. Then, when Fall Out Boy released their album Mania in 2018, one of the verses in the song "Young and Menace" mentioning Nikki Sixx intrigued me and kinda stuck with me for a while. This one:

"And I've lived so much life, lived so much life

I think that God is gonna have to kill me twice

Kill me twice like my name was Nikki Sixx"

That didn't quite lead me to Mötley Crüe just yet tho!

First, I got more into retro synthwave songs (imo a natural progression from my appreciation of vaporwave and futurefunk and my slowly developing obsession with everything 80s that had been brewing for a couple years at that point), a classmate got me more into hardrock and metal, which reignited my love for Iron Maiden on the side, I then discovered darker/heavier synthwave, which led me to the DANCE WITH THE DEAD remix of Master of Puppets

which then led me to their remix of Kickstart My Heart (my very first brush with a Mötley Crüe song <3)

But that wasn't it either, not there yet by a long shot!

Then it took another 2-ish years and my budding Metalocalypse obsession inbetween for me to stumble upon a Mötley Crüe x Male Reader comfort fanfic (yes, sometimes I just look for nice x reader comfort stories for my mental health, don't question it) that really got me into the band! It was "No Chicken or Soup" by NewBikeWithThePlateReadThe666 on AO3!

At first I couldn't really visualise all 4 of them, had a hard time telling Nikki, Tommy and Mick apart. Then I told myself I need to gather more knowledge about them, clued into the fact I already kinda knew one of their songs through the remix I mentioned above, started my insane photo collection, listened to more of their songs, bought the only available album at my local electronics store, and the rest is history 😂👌
