you herd it this morning at 6am i tuned into tom and jerry kids. and at 6am boomerang uk chainged its packaging to sqidaly wrighting.
probably beacause toonami changed their look and cartoon network is in around october time they want all their kids channel different.

i think boomerang is going to do alote of chaingers in the near future.
mostly showing shows that cartoon network has dumped thats just what i think.

i also think if animainiacs does well they might show tiny toons again.

beacause boomerang seems to be getting its high raitings other its wacky toons.

im not sure if the chaingers are for the good or the bad but i think they are doing pritty well with animainiacs.:)

Do you have any screengrabs on you, that we here in the US can see?
(We're wondering if Boomerang USA is planning any sort of visual facelifts for itself?)

Well, I guess that merits an American change, also, since the old CN logo they use is partially out of date, but still used (for DVD releases and once on the website).

Boomerang to get a makeover



http://images.digitalspy.co.uk/library/200x150_boomerang_newlook.jpgTurner Broadcasting's Boomerang channel will get a new look on September 13, it was confirmed today.

"Boomerang needed a cosmetic boost to give its content a more contemporary look and feel," said Richard Kilgariff, the channel's senior VP and general manager. "The in-house team headed by Art Director, Henry Bell and Creative Director Peter Drake have done a great job of working with the characters to make this happen."

The new look has been in production at Turner Broadcasting for the past year and will include a new channel logo, on-air bug, signature tune, idents and promos - along with new off-air components including a new channel website and a print magazine, Toonerang.

"Working with cartoon veterans such as Scooby-Doo and Bugs Bunny ensures that there is always something seriously funny on Boomerang," said Boomerang UK channel manager Dan Balaam. "We feel it is really important to make our toons attractive to new generations by giving their home a makeover and taking Boomerang into the 21st century."
