Another lame marathon - give us a break, Marc!

[JCorey3rd]

Next Saturday is a 24 marathon of What's New Scooby-Doo. Why? Why do they need to rerun the same episodes 3 times in a day? If someone see Marc this week, spit on his shoes for me. Can he program the channel instead of put it on autopilot?

Are there any other marathons after? Maybe some good ones this time?

That is just sad. Do we really need an entire day of Help! It's The Hair Bear Bunch? There's only 16 episodes. And Three days worth of What's New Scooby-Doo marathons? How about at least giving us the cheesy Scooby Doo movies with the episodes that couldn't get on the DVD set. What about a day of vintage SuperFriends? Or Wait Till Your Father Gets Home? Or the Flintstones?

Have they just given up on the channel?

Hey, I'd rather watch "Hair Bear Bunch" all day than "Baby Looney Tunes" or "Mike, Lu, and Og."

Remember the good old days of Boomerang? I do. I remember that every day they would show a different classic cartoon character block. Monday would be Yogi Bear; Tuesday would be Quick Draw; Wednesday would be Huckleberry Hound; Thursday would be Snagglepuss; and Friday would be Augie Doggie. Well, I'm not sure about the exact days but it was something like that.

But he is showing 24 hours of Mike, Lu and Og and he did do the baby looney tunes. Maybe it'd be interesting if they'd run the complete series of various H-B cartoons so that they could have 3 different shows during a day? Why not run all the Space Ghosts, Birdmans and whatevers in a day? Instead of beating us with more What's New Scooby Doo marathons.

I remember when they had fridays be a character of the month deal. The channel was actually better when it was only an 8 hour loop. Friday had the character of the month. Saturday had the cartoons from a certain year and Sunday was Boomeraction. There was a better rotation of titles.

Pepperidge Farm remembers.





(Sorry, I just felt the urge to do that. I, nor anyone I know, has Boomerang.)

The channel has become a graveyard for all old shows that we forgot.

The channel has become a graveyard for all old shows that we forgot. I don't get this channel, but that's just sad. It sounds like it's become a dump for shows they have but have no idea what to do with.

I can't believe Duck Dodgers is here already. I didn't watch it much but it was better than the overrun crap they are running prime time CN.

I hate marathons, even of shows I like. I can't sit for three hours watching shows. Just keep a schedule without loading up on the same thing all the time. Quit trying to put one good show on three premium channels no one can get and fill ing everything else with crap. [/rant]

UGH!!!!!
Do they realy think airing marathons of the same shows over and over and over is going to do any good? Marc has access to one of the largest libraries available to any network and all he can come up with is this? Richie Rich is about as well-known and popular as Yogi, Huck or Quick Draw at this point, not to mention a rather lousy and uneventful series in H-B history. Mike, Lu, and Og has been on the network for month and a half and they've already ran through the series numerous times. If you're going to throw together random marathons maybe give us something different. I don't know if they're aware, but they're other Scooby series, many of them a matter of fact.

Despite Hair Bunhc actually being a H-B Cartoon, it only has 17 eps, meaning the entire series run 3 times in one day

the only pluses to this are 2SD and STAS marathons, which i beleive were kicked out of their former slots for pokemon, and havent aired since

WNSD should not be getting 2 days of marathons

[Jon Cooke]

If they insist on continuing these marathons, how about a Flintstones marathon? Jetsons? Top Cat? Yogi? Popeye?

Three 24-hour What's New Scooby-Doo? marathons in one month is insane.
