movies/tv Do cartoons have enough range and variation in genres?

[TheMisterManGuy 344]

Whenever I see people discussing the fate of action cartoons, everything is either sold as a comedy or an action show. We rarely see cartoons categorized in genre's outside those 2 on their own. What about a Mystery? Slice-of-life? What about more adventure or, Godforbid drama. Don't get me wrong, I like comedy, and I like action. But using only those 2 genres really hurts the medium. I get that using a basic genre is easier to sell to advertisers, but can't these basic terms grow beyond just 2 words?

@TheMisterManGuy, I really like this topic ... I make a tweak to what you had as the title to assist SEO ... but also to make it a little more clear. 

 

I actually wonder this myself. I'll follow this topic and circle back in a little bit and give my thoughts.
