    Just as I thought. :)

    Also, since I'm assuming you were going to say the "differences between Father of the Pride and The Penguins of Madagascar". I should make a note here that Dreamworks doesn't really seem decide much on the Penguins show in terms of quality. It's done entirely at Nick Animation (all the characters and stuff have been rebuilt for the show), and the animation is outsourced to the same studio for all of Nick's CG shows.

    That isn't what I was going to say (my post was cut off... fixed now), but it does fit with my point: Dreamworks has learned from their past outsourcing experiences and has moved to better outsourcing partners. Nickelodeon knows how to make a quality TV series, so they're doing the show. Yes, they outsource a lot of the production as well, but it is done within the confines of a system they have had in place for several years (maybe not the same production partners, but they have done it in the past).

    Pixar has not had this same level of outsourcing, and will most likely have some growing pains as a result.

    Once you actually think through all the hype like this blog is doing, you actually do realize that it's not that interesting. Any truely skilled and ambitious talent located in Vancouver would not be interested in a place that's designed as a color-by-numbers, non-creative shop even if the name on the door begins with a large capital 'P'.
