Comments
The Teletoon Retro post was the most popular post for 2015 by far. It received over three times the number of page views as the second most popular post, about the then-announced news on sequels to “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” and “Frozen.”
In third place is a post about a “Jonny Quest”/”Tom and Jerry” DVD movie. Fourth place is a list of my 10 favorite Roku channels; fifth place focuses on where Supergirl lives. Not a surprise that “Frozen” would show an influence (hanging on from 2014), while the Teletoon Retro post has been a bit of a pleasant surprise.
Apparently people enjoy reading about:
- Upcoming cartoons
- List posts (not a surprise, being the Internet)
- Cable TV animation channels (Teletoon and Cartoon Network related posts have been popular in previous years too)
- Tech tips and guides
- Comic characters that appear in movies, mainstream animation (Fire on “Batman: The Brave and the Bold”), or primetime TV (Supergirl), aka forms of entertainment the general public actually like, as opposed to superhero comics’ more niche appeal.
