Ending Toonami and lacking a soul?I personally don't think that Toonami was the soul. Toonami wasn't always a part the network. It wasn't there in the beginning, and I don't think CN would need it in the end. And it has always been considered completely separate from the main network, despite the fact it wasn't. Most people didn't think movie on Toonami was a CN movie, they saw it as a Toonami movie. The executives wanted the network to be united, but it couldn't work with the block failing in the ratings: even with their popular series on there (Naruto, Ben 10: Alien Force, Samurai Jack), it continued to fail. :shrug:

Fridays was a block, not a show; a block is only as good as the shows which air on it. Unless you're just a fan of Tommy and Tara, bringing Fridays back wouldn't matter 2 squats if the shows they were announcing and doing bits between weren't any good.

Dexter's Lab, Johnny Bravo and The Powerpuff Girls are all on Boomerang now.

If you don't like Skunk Fu and Ben 10 Alien Force, then just don't watch them. Why do they have to be taken off? I've never understood that logic.

Chowder and Flapjack technically are Cartoon-Cartoons (i.e., CN originals), the network just doesn't use that name anymore. Anyway, it's not like calling them 'Cartoon-Cartoons' would actually make them better shows somehow; they're both pretty good as it is. The Cartoon-Cartoon name isn't some kind of televisual Miracle Whip that automatically makes things better.

And Toonami's gone. Truth is the block was on life support for well over a year before the plug was finally pulled. Sad, yes, but true. Deal.

Folks, I'm really not trying to be mean here, but I've got to say it: the 90's Cartoon Network was great, really great, but it's not the 90's anymore. The CN of today isn't all that bad really; in fact in some areas, it's actually quite good. Time moves forward, and we can't live in the past. Adapt, Adopt and Improve-motto of The Round Table.

I think TOM's final speech proved that Toonami still did have a soul, up 'till the end.

I've never gotten why the Cartoon Cartoon title makes everything better. If MGPAM was a Cartoon Cartoon, it would still be bad.
I guess because of both the fact that Cartoon Cartoons were generally superior cartoons, as the crews of all of the Cartoon Cartoons were astounding, and the nostalgia attached to the title.

Putting Skunk FU onHold it! How exactly did Cartoon Network make a mistake by putting “Skunk Fu!” on their schedule? For an animated program that was created with a relatively small budget, the series has had quite a lot of success across the world and it did well enough on Cartoon Network for them to keep it on their schedule. The only downside that I can see is that it airs ten times a week despite the fact that it only has twenty-six episodes; somebody really needs to order a second season…

Skunk Fu may get off. (which I doubt and hope not.) PPG, Dexter, and Johnny Bravo are all on Boomerang. The only one that has a chance to come back is PPG. MOVE ON.

Nah, it gets ratings.

I think Cartoon Network is doing well for itself. I guess they're trying to find something that will really work for them. I like the "Nood" theme they have now and alot of their recent shows have been pretty good(I'm loving Chowder, Ben 10 AF and Secret Saturdays).

Their blocks are pretty average,in my opinion, though I do really like Har Har Tharsday and hope they expand on that. The "Cartoon Network Fridays" block isn't really all the exciting. The shows are good, but I'm just not much of a fan of the bumps. The "King Nood" as he is called has been pretty lifeless so far.

The things I don't really like are non-consistent weekday schedules (specifically in the afternoons and early evening), the currently small amount of anime, and the cancellation of Toonami. Yeah, Yeah, ratings were down, blah blah, but I still believe they could have at least tried to fix it. Oh well though, that's how life goes.

Overall, I think Cartoon Network is pretty decent. I believe they'll have some cool surprises this years and hopefully they'll throw action fans a bone.

True, but the Cartoon Cartoon jingle was oh-so catchy, and CCF was by far the best Friday block (lineup and package wise). The shows themselves wouldn't have been better at all if they were still called Cartoon Cartoons, but at least they would've been shown on a nicely packaged block and would have a cool jingle before they aired. :sweat: Which doesn't really help, but I guess the fact that people want originals to be called Cartoon Cartoons again is simply rooted in nostalgia. I personally know the shows will be just as bad if they were called Cartoon Cartoons, but I am among those who want the name back, just for nostalgia's sake. Personally I don't see any reason as to why the name should've been retired in the first place.

Mickialla
01-05-2009, 03:44 PM
The name was really retired in 2003, but it continued on in the "Cartoon Cartoon" block, where originals aired. But originals (both produced after '03 and under the Cartoon Cartoon name) no longer aired with the Cartoon Cartoon jingle before it. Besides, by now the name is officially retired, since the Cartoon Cartoon block is also gone.

Out of Jimmy's Head was a terrible show, yes, doesn't mean that Dominic James was a terrible person. So being happy that he lost his job, or that ANYONE lost their job, is a little disturbing. Which is really the problem with Live Action shows. It's relatively easy to be a voice actor on an animated show, many voice actors work on various cartoons at a time. Live Action actors on the other hand, have a harder time getting a job and are usually stuck on one role at a time. So when a cartoon is cancelled, it's not as big of a deal for voice actors because they're probably still being paid for voicing a variety of other characters, but it's more difficult for live action actors when their live action show gets cancelled.

Out of Jimmy's Head the series isn't on DVD as of yet, however, Re-Animated, the TV movie that led to the series, is. Also, watching a DVD won't give a canceled show ratings. Ratings no longer matter for OOJH because it's over and done with.

Please don't capitalize the first letter of every word. It's almost as hard to read as all-caps.

Seriously, though, I don't watch CN much so I wouldn't be able to say much. Cheers to Chowder, Flapjack and the Noods, and for putting Skunk Fu! on the lineup. Jeers for rerunning everything shinty-six times a day.

Also, two questions:

1. What was so bad about Out of Jimmy's Head?

2. What was the "City" era? Was this the era that had little bumpers with various H-B characters interacting? I remember one with Johnny Bravo and Morocco Moo, and another with JB and… someone else… at a diner late at night.

:^: Like Jave said above, just ignore the "live action should be on CN" comments; they seem to largely be just flamebait and should be treated as such. A post only becomes flamebait when someone takes the bait.

So, to get back on-point:

CHEERS:

The introduction of a new action block, You Are Here. No, it's not Toonami, but it does have some savory actions cartoons which are garnishing high ratings for CN.

Decent new comedy cartoons. Chowder, Flapjack, Total Drama Island and 6Teen may not be for everyone, but they're putting butts in seats.

The Looney Tunes marathon. No, it's not a guarantee that the LTs will return to the network full time, but it's a glimmer of hope. Better than nothing.

JEERS:

Repetition of movies on Action Flicks. Come on, guys: mix it up a little.

Movies that have squadoosh to do with animation airing on The Flicks. Remember your name, CN, remember your name.

That "Are You CN This?" video. It's not terrible, but really....

Where is he going to see it? Out Of Jimmy's Head is canceled. Cartoon Network Network doesn't even show the reruns anymore, and there are currently no plans for a DVD release of the series.


Yea, but he thought there was a DVD.

Cheers:
Canceling Out of Jimmy's Head because it was one step closer to making CN a Disney or Nick clone.
Creating Flapjack and Chowder because creative shows like those are fun to watch from an animation viewpoint and a regular viewer's point of view.
Airing and (possibly) reestablishing Looney Tunes' place on the network because it should be CN's duty to expose this generation to the peak of animation.
The Cartoonstitute because director driven cartoons usually have more soul, more creativity, and, because of that, are a lot more fun to watch. Look at What a Cartoon! and Oh Yeah! Cartoons to see what I mean.
The Noods bumps because anything is better than the Fall bumpers, plus the fact that they're actually funny and/or entertaining.Jeers:
Total Drama Island, 6Teen, Johnny Test, and George of the Jungle because the design and animation is so poor it hurts my eyes to watch them. The sharp, angular style is so unnapealingly handled that I don't understand how people can stand it. Dexter was able to use that style with, well, style, but TDI and 6Teen fall completely flat.
Airing live action movies because, well, it's a cartoon channel.
As much as I love that they air Tom and Jerry, I wish they would air (the shorts that apply) in widescreen like TCM does with it's movies. I hate it when the title is in widescreen but then the actual cartoon is not. I'd like to see all the beautiful work the animators did on the cartoon please!
I want more original programming like Chowder and Flapjack but maybe the Cartoonstitute will help with this.

It seems like everyone has Differnt yet somewhat simmilar cheers & Jeers. Frankly I think The things that we can all agree on though is that Its good Out of jimm'ys head is gone...Its bad that Toonami's gone...CN could stand to show less johhny test & show more classic cartoon Cartoons, as well as more loony tunes. 2008 was somewhat of a revival for the network...CN DOES mistreat anime, and that hopefully 2009 will Be an even better Year for CN then 2008!:D

Grudge no of course not! Im mearly stating that they Don't really Treat it very well..I mean on again off again Naruto..The AS animes all coming on late late at night. I mean it seems that If its Not Pokemon, Byakugan or some other Game based anime it gets the B or C list treatment...I mean I know I really Should'nt complain...But with all Those Years of Toonami I got Used to Having Action Cartoons and anime at Decent hours! Givin we still have Action at decent times Thanks to YAH. But would it be that hard for CN to Air Naruto Regularly, Bring back One piece and Show their AS animes like Bleach & Code Geass earlier? ( I mean everythings about the ratings now...Man thats why i miss the 90's!):sweat: :p :evil:

Cheers for Cartoon Network would include the shows that CN has aired this year such as Chowder, Alien Force, Clone Wars, Batman, Saturdays, TDI, Flapjack and Transformers Animated. It looks like there is a nice balance of action and comedy and CN seems as if they are willing to cater to the young and the old with it's programming thanks to Adult Swim showing edgier comedy and anime and You are Here with it's action lineup and Har Har with it's fun comedy and mass appeal to both adults and children. I also applaud the Nood's, oh yes a fun and exciting concept of televsion bumpers brought to us by the smart people at CN.

Jeers for Cartoon Network would include the creation of The Flicks, in my opinion live action shows and movies have NO place on CN unless its a movie based on a show like Ben 10 or something. I was not shocked at the loss of Toonami but I was not in complete agreement of it either, it was a big loss for the network that maybe could have been avoided. Another jeer would be the scheduling during the day, it could use some tweaking but I guess thats up for CN to decide.

Cheers:
Chowder
Flapjack
Cancellation of OOJH
PPG Marathon
Finally releasing DVDs of their shows
CN Video
Underfist
Adventure Time

Jeers:
Anything live action is just in the way of the cartoons
OOJH should never have existed
Not putting out enough DVDs
New season episode configurations lead to large hiatuses and second halves of seasons that seem like whole second seasons
The comedy shows demand more merchandise
Flapjack shirts are limited release (idk if its their fault)
Cracking down on creator blog posts
Not airing widescreen shows in widescreen on standard TVs
Too much Johnny Test

CHEERS
Har Har Tharsdays in general
YAH and all the shows therein yes even Clone Wars
The mere fact that they actually have action flicks instead of just airing TDI or 6Teen or something else in that time slot
Loony Toons Marathon and the slight glimmer of hope that it might return to Cartoon Network's lineup or Boomerang's for that matter
Mucha Lucha reruns
The fact that they are doing a 14 hour marathon of a show that ended several years back
The fact that they cancelled Out of Jimmy's head before they decided to give it more episodes
Having all the episodes of Samurasi Jack up on Jetstream until 2010
The Noods!

JEERS
The decrease in anime anywhere other than early mornings on Adult Swim.
Following that the inability to keep Naruto in a time slot for more than one month at a time. We'll never fiinish the series and get to Shippuden before fall this way if they even decide to actually air the thing.
The cancellation of Toonami without making the effort to dig up even more cool things out of the mothballs like Dragonball and Tenchi Muyo or make a comeback with new cool shows. See to me they had started to make the block better with Samurai Jack then shortly after Jack and the Spartans WHAM!
Airing Batman and Robin and continueing too although I don't know if even the most bored f people would watch it.
Cancelling One Piece. I had gotten so pumped up because I knew that the CP9 arc done with Funimation instead of 4kids would have been awesome
The endless loop of Action Flicks. I mean come on would it kill you to get some variety like maybe a Dragonball movie like The Dead Zone or Batman Mask of the Phantasm. I'd even watch My Neighbor Totoro if they decided to air it despite it not being remotely actiony. Or perhaps Justice League Starcroossed

Cartoon Network couldn't re-air Tenchi Muyo! even if they wanted to. CN lost the broadcasting rights to Tenchi Muyo! years ago, and Pioneer has since gone under.

They coulsd air it if they bought the Rights to one of the Funimation Tenchi Shows...But Like many have said CN isn't interested in new animes Right now unless their Video Game, Toy or card game based..So I'd Say besides the Possibility of PPGZ in 09 the only animes that CN would probably consider Getting Would be Kirby, Right back at ya or F-zeroGX reruns...I GUess they could Get sonicX as well, But THat would be silly since CW still shows reruns on Saturday mornings.:sweat:
