Yay. Hopefully it'll be on long enough to air the later episodes, some of which I never got to see.

This is good news-for those who actually have Boomerang.
I wish it CN would air reruns of the show. Hopefully, it'll get the Teen Titans treatement.

I got a feeling that they'll be airing the series long enough for you to see those episodes 3x over (maybe more). I'm excited too since I don't remember much of the show. Hurray for Boomerang!

Oh...snap. This is sweet. I'm so glad I have Boomerang now.

But wait, what's going to happen to Justice League Unlimited? :confused:

Excellent, Boomerang is Slowly becoming what CN once was, I would'nt be suprised it they updated there look in a couple of years as well, Now all we need is for them to air Tom & Jerry, Loony Tunes,Batman Beyond, Megas XLR & the Dragonball series & they will be the best cartoon channel around!:anime::D:p

Yes...Its only a matter of time!:evil:

It's been airing on that slot nonstop for over two years. I think it's time to say goodbye.

Not bashing Samuri Jack or anything, but I think this show too new for Boomerang. It's not even ten years old.

Well, it seems as though Cartoon Network has no further interest in airing it, so where else can it go? It's better for Samurai Jack to air on Boomerang than for it to air nowhere at all.

Boomerang is little more than CN's recycle bin now.

The same can be said about Justice League/JLU, Duck Dodgers and What's New Scooby-Doo? but they air them anyway. I'm cool with them airing modern cartoons. A chance to relive some old memories.

Since this is more about Boomerang than Cartoon Network, I'm going to move this over to the Retro forums.

Hopefully, Jack will be treated better on Boomerang than he was on CN. CN would only show a handful of reruns before pulling it from the schedule, put it back on, then pull it again.

And CN is putting it on at a later hour, so the "Soccer Moms" need not fear their little'uns seeing any gratuitous motor-oil spilling, chest-baring, or fundoshi-flashing. In fact, they might even get hooked on him...;)

My Boomerang feed is 3 hours early... It's at 8PM for me. :D

I'll have to check this out again.

It's been especially tiresome since they've only been showing the JLU episodes, with none of Justice League to help space things out. I think it's getting a much deserved rest.

What time is Jack going to be on (Eastern)? Will they start from episode 1? Will a "new" episode air daily or weekly?

Man, now that Boomerang's getting great shows like this, I'm starting to really get convinced to get it.

I'm Waiting for Ed, Edd & Eddy; but they're still making marathons of that on CN.
