Ah, thanks for the clarification. And while I too enjoy Adventure Time (along with a few others)... they way the channel's being run is a bit of a sore spot for me...uneek said:No problem, man.

I have no problem with CN's content. I've enjoyed Adventure Time and Regular Show. It's just the way they run the channel that rubs me the wrong way. The idea that a channel made exclusively for cartoons wants to add live-action shows plus not being completely honest when they cancel perfectly successful series(Are we really supposed to believe they couldn't make toys out of Sym-Bionic Titan?) is just plain stupid.
None of them are on CN anymore, but they have another channel (I forget what it's called off the top of my head though) that basically only runs old cartoons, including a few of those.Mattlore said:I've been out of the loop for a LONG time with CN so can someone tell me if any of these shows still exist (Even in re-run format)?
Cow and Chicken
Two Stupid Dogs
Powerpuff Girls
Johnny Bravo
Dexter's Lab
Ren and Stimpy
Samurai Jack
Fosters Home for Imaginary Friends
They're re-running episodes of those shows every now and then since it's Cartoon Network's 20'th birthday. Not very much though, sadly.Mattlore said:I've been out of the loop for a LONG time with CN so can someone tell me if any of these shows still exist (Even in re-run format)?

Is that why there haven't been new episodes in a while? Because they couldn't make toys out of the show?uneek said:No problem, man. But to respond anyway...CrazyGirl17 said:Oh... okay then.

I don't know to break this to you, but I don't think they just haven't stopped making new episodes. It got cancelled.Irridium said:Is that why there haven't been new episodes in a while?

Oh come on. It's a show about kids who transorm into big suits of armor who then morph into a giant goddamn robot. And don't tell me giant robots don't sell. They're giant robots! Everyone digs giant robots.
... Thats, the same guy, Jay Baruchel [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jay_Baruchel]. He does both the Movie and the TV show, so... If you hate his voice in the TV show, then you probably shouldn't like his Movie voice either...Kopikatsu said:It's a little anvilicious at times, but I enjoy it.Ed130 said:Ehh it's going the Nickelodeon route (few good shows, mostly Live Acton and BS).uneek said:-snip-
A little off-topic, but is the Dragon show worth watching?
Except for every time Hiccup opens his fat mouth, because they replaced his movie voice actor with someone awful.
After you said that, I went and played a clip from the movie and then one from the show.Mr.Mattress said:... Thats, the same guy, Jay Baruchel [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jay_Baruchel].

In fact, "Dragons" has almost every voice actor returning from the Movie to the TV show! The only 4 I can think of are Jonah Hill not being Snotlout, Craig Ferguson not being Gobber, Gerard Butler as Stoic, And Kristin Wiig not reprising her role as Ruffnut. Everyone else was from the movie (Unless they're a new character).
Do you have a source for this? It'd be interesting to know if this has anything to do with Static Shock's comic getting canceled as well.FirebirdXR said:Maybe because no one has mentioned it, but it was DC's fault that they pulled the episode for not renewing licensing agreements for people like Rocket, Icon and Static Shock (Static, who made an appearance in that exact episode, but powerless) since they're not DC properties.
Yeah... I suspected as much...uneek said:I don't know to break this to you, but I don't think they just haven't stopped making new episodes.

Funny thing about that, Toonami is back (Obviously) and their new line-up includes Symbionic Titan, funny thing that eh?Prime_Hunter_H01 said:Cancelling Toonami
Cancelling Sym-bionic Titan(NO TOY REVENUE, WHAT THE FUCK)
Yep I know. Again a horribly late time slot for both Toonami and Sym-bionic Titan means it is hard to watch. I'm sure even the night owls are ko at 3 in the morning, ant if not there is probably a more pressing reason to be up that late. Most likely it involves college and that paper you procrastinated. And there goes the personal anecdote.Nannernade said:Funny thing about that, Toonami is back (Obviously) and their new line-up includes Symbionic Titan, funny thing that eh?Prime_Hunter_H01 said:Cancelling Toonami

Well there's still Regular Show and Adventure Time.spartan231490 said:The only worthwile thing that CN has done since toonami is adult swim. Seriously, nothing else on that channel is worth watching anymore.
