At least Adult Swim is OK

LosDaddie

What is wrong with you people? Are you sheep? AS is total crap now these days! It used to kick ass all over the place but now is is just sh*t shows like Super Jail, King of Hill, and that ultimate crap The Tim and Eric Awesome show. Tim and Eric? I want to shoot those asshats in the face. It is not even a cartoon.

I too mourn the death of Toonami. Remember when they used to have hard core anime on like Ghost in the Sheel and Outlaw Star? What utter asshats!

The only thing worth a damn now on AS is Robot Chicken. But 10 mintues of goodness can not counteract the river of putrid crap that CN is spewing these days. Non-cartoon shows that ar not even original! XOme Myth Busters rip off crap? WTF? Not only does it suck but it is all rip off garbage.

Death to CN. I will watch it no more. Even for Robot Chicken.

I will just download all the good stuff and skip the garbage.


I love cartoon network.

sukraj

BBBBAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! Be a sheep..... YOu will most likely be one of the sheep that watches and supports the new non-catoon shows. You will most likley like them.

Cartoon Network has died a long time ago, for me. I remember watching Ed Edd and Eddy, Powerpuff Girls, and other hand drawn cartoons. Now when I watch the cartoons that are airing on, it just doesn't feel the same.

its been declining for quite a while, since they got rid of cartoon cartoons(ed edd and eddy, dexters lab, courage the cowerdly dog) and when toonami went to only the midnight run on saturdays then disapered altogether. the "new" toonami that recently went off air was no compensation for removing the original

You're kidding me right? I hate new CN yet I think Flapjack is one of the best cartoons to come out in a while. It's got charm, AWESOME characters and always manages to be clever. You're probably one of the people who think Tom and Jerry was one of the best cartoons of all time :roll:

Can't say I'm surprised. Everytime i turn on the channel they're showing some real life movie or cartoons based on reality TV. All I have to say is that whoever is running this POS has clearly ignored what made CN so successful in the 90's and the early half of this decade. Seriously, just give us a Toonami channel and maybe another one that just runs Cartoon Cartoons. Oh wait wasn't this supposed to be Cartoon Network's job? :roll:

I believe CN died when we were 13 and no longer cared. As for Adult Swim, most of it is watchable... maybe like the first 3 hours or so. Once they air Tim & Eric, it all goes south IMO.

That is sad news but it is not like the quality of the cartoons they have been showing for the past year is great.

The fact that they do the same exact thing EVERY episode tells me that its not. If you've seen one episode of Tom and Jerry, you've pretty much seen them all.

Tom and Jerry? Hell no. I have tried to watch Flapjack. It seems to revolve around the same basic plot lines over and over again. To me it is really boring and it never makes me laugh at all. Ben 10 and Ben 10 Alien Force are the best things that CN has made in the last 10 years. They need to bring back Toonami again too. They need to kill AS as it is all sh*t **** Fox shows and crap like Tim and Eric. It makes me want to puke.

And who ever made Super Jail needs to be put in a deep as* hole and have cemet dumped on their heads Mobster style. That show is mental dookie.

I don't know how they killed Cartoon Network so badly.

And why did they cancel Toonami in the first place.

Actually now that I think about it Adult Swim kinda killed Toonami, because they stopped putting actual animes with good characters and plots on Toonami and moved them to adult swim because they thought children wouldn't understand it well.

I'll admit when I was 6 I didn't understand everything that was going on in Gundam Wing, but the show was still one of my favorites.

ahh those were the days, i always liked gundam wing and G gundam i still watch them on youtube occasionally to relive the experiance, to bad good animes like them are almost non existent nowadays

I don't watch much CN anymore outside of Adult Swim, so it doesn't bother me much.

It would make my year if they could maybe see fit to put out Dexter's Lab and Courage on DVD, though. The Powerpuff Girls have a box set, but Dexter and Courage don't even have season 1 releases? That's messed up.

This further proves that with every new generation of children, breeds a new onset of immaturity.

We all enjoyed the ironic/sarcastic humor of the boomerang days.

Now our children will "enjoy" the crude/schrewn humor of the "human-cartoon" days.

Yes, yes, yes. Include Outlaw Star, Death Note(at a resonable hour), GHost in The Sheel SAC, and so much more.

Are you serious? That show has an over arching story that progressed as time went on more and more. It unfolded and then became Alien Force which is even more awesome. It's writing is better than any original cartoon these days. The chaacaters became more than what they were in the past. They actually develpoed. The plots went on to a more epic story line. I think you have not even really watched the shows if you think they were as simple as you say.

EDIT: You see, the characters on Flapjack will never change and will never become something diffrent. I am sick of dumbas*ed shows like the Simpsons that stay the same forever. It is lame.

I'm sorry to butt in, but I have to say that the fact that you two are arguing about shows like Ben 10 and Flapjack really goes to show just how much CN has gone down the drain.lol.

I thought they stopped showing actual cartoons 24/7 long ago. I don't watch it much anymore but late last night, while very tired, I'm pretty sure I ended up (sorta) watching a vegetable orchestra and a bunch of British people. On CN. I have no clue what that was supposed to be about. I still watch it for Family Guy here and there. I used to watch it more when Inuyasha was on.

Are you serious? That show has an over arching story that progressed as time went on more and more. It unfolded and then became Alien Force which is even more awesome. It's writing is better than any original cartoon these days. The chaacaters became more than what they were in the past. They actually develpoed. The plots went on to a more epic story line. I think you have not even really watched the shows if you think they were as simple as you say.

Yeah, shows about reluctant heroes with annoying siblings and grandpas with mysterious pasts are SOOOOOO original :|

And shows about a cat and mouse throwing crap at each other giving is soooo original too? How many cat and mouse cartoons are there now?

[QUOTE="Renegade_Fury"][QUOTE="Juggernaut140"] No I'm pretty sure its just a constant string of recycled ideas and lame gags that never goes anywhereJuggernaut140

Well it's been working for almost 70 years (props to Cornhollio157), so I'm going to go and say you're flat out wrong.

Showing reruns in the early morning doesn't count as "working" :|

lol what are you talking about? Even the fact (boy I'm using this term a lot) you know about its existence just goes to show you how freaking popular it is. Think about it, it's 70 years old so it's not hard to grasp it's popularity... Also I remember they used to show it every afternoon as well as around 10:00pm in 2002 or so.

They are probably going to try going for a Nickelodeon approach, with how they show both cartoons and live-action shows.

[QUOTE="Juggernaut140"] Ben 10? Dude, seriously? Ben 10 is without a doubt one of the worst shows Cartoon Network has ever put on. Talk about revolving around the same basic plot lines eh? Juggernaut140

What other cartoon show is even close to what Ben 10 and Ben 10 Alien Force in it's plot?

I also forgot about the Secret Saturdays. That show is pretty cool too. I guess we will see if it becomes better or just gets cancelled.

Adult Swim is the only thing going on for Cartoon Network in my opinion.

Gotta love "branching out" and "growing the network." Bunch of BS if you ask me. Oh well, I only watch Flashpoint, Entourage and the CBS Monday night comedies anyway.

Moral Orel, Home Movies, Aqua Teen, The Boondocks, and Venture Brothers are all quality programs, I think.

And AS originals (yes, I'm counting Home Movies as an AS production), to boot.

Gee, I wonder how many cartoons there are about characters who have to save the day with powers that they wish they didn't have... :roll:

Like I said, not liking it is one thing, but denying its popularity is ignorance at its finest.

CN has been showing non-animation shows for quite awhile now. Aside from the live action shows that are commonly run on Adult Swim (Tim and Eric, Darkplace, and Pee Wee's Playhouse during that obscenely long joke that AS pulled a few years back) they also regularly show live action movies on CN. This is nothing new.
