good bye Cartoon Network

[QUOTE="Renegade_Fury"][QUOTE="Juggernaut140"] The fact that it's well known doesn't change that Tom and Jerry had no originality and was completely void of humorJuggernaut140

[QUOTE="Renegade_Fury"] Like I said, not liking it is one thing, but denying its popularity is ignorance at its finest. Renegade_Fury

[QUOTE="Hungry_Jello"]

[QUOTE="Juggernaut140"] Yeah, shows about reluctant heroes with annoying siblings and grandpas with mysterious pasts are SOOOOOO original :| 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.

That is just one aspect of the shows plot line.

[QUOTE="Renegade_Fury"][QUOTE="Juggernaut140"] I didn't say that it wasn't popular :?

[QUOTE="travisstaggs"]Adult Swim is the only thing going on for Cartoon Network in my opinion.UnrighteousFury

I am curious. What shows of the current Adult Swim line up do you watch?

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.

To each their own I guess....*sigh*

[QUOTE="Juggernaut140"][QUOTE="Renegade_Fury"] If you're not, then doesn't Tom and Jerry have to be one of the greatest cartoons ever by default? You don't reach this level of fame by sucking for decades. I don't recall Looney Tune characters doing story driven things either, and they're regarded at the same level. Renegade_Fury

[QUOTE="Juggernaut140"] Looney Tunes wasn't the same thing every episode though :|Juggernaut140

Cable sucks. I can't wait for it to die.Jandurin

No kidding. Instead of a few channels with nothing on, you have dozens of channels of nothing on.

I actually cancelled my cable about 6 months ago. I realized that between a digital HD tuner, Hulu, and Netflix, I can get everything that was worth watching on cable. And now I'm not spending $65 a month (or $800 a year) on something that wasn't that great to begin with.

A heated argument over Tom & Jerry...Now I've seen everything...

Anywho, I don't really care too much about CN's current actions; I just watch it now-a-days for Adult Swim, though even then, I don't watch it anywhere near as much as I used to...

*sigh* TV just isn;t that good these days :(...

Well Batman Brave and the Bold and Star Wars are still there, so I wouldn't say it's completely dead to me. It's hanging by a thread.

I miss the old days too. Now it's pretty much ESPN 24/7 for me. :(

[QUOTE="Juggernaut140"][QUOTE="Renegade_Fury"] What are you talking about? Every episode is Elmer still chasing Bugs, Wile E. Coyote still chasing Road Runner, Silvester still chasing Speedy and Tweetey, and I could go on and on. Tom and Jerry does the exact same thing, and just like Looney Tunes switches up the time and setting.

I am getting there with you really, really fast.

Oh yes, Bat Man Brave and The Bold. Another cartoon that is worth my time.

Only extremely, EXTREMELY rarely Juggernaut140

No, they did it quite a bit actually, or at least around the same amount as Looney Tunes. The musketeer episodes come to mind, with that gray mouse with the accent. Another good one is the episode where Tom goes to hell, but comes back and tries to repent for his sins. Both shows are aiming for the same audience, so praising one and not the other makes no sense,

I prefer the Disney channel:Poptiow

*vomits on keyboard* You joking right?

Ha, indeed. Though I will say that Tom & Jerry is a pretty cool cartoon. I loved watching it as a kid, I'd probably still like it if I watched it now.

All I ever watch on TV are Simpsons, gameshows, Late Night comedians such as Jay Leno (can't wait for Conan O' Brien's return 8)), and watch Adullt Swim every now and then, mostly to watch a couple animes.

Yeah, CN is pretty bad now. Its a lot different than what it was five years ago or more. All I watch on it is Family Guy on AS, they play the older shows sometimes just like TBS.

I'm pretty sure they've been showing live action movies for a while. Anyway, Adult Swim has been the only good thing on CN for a while. I wish they would just get their own seperate channel.deathwish124

That would be awesome, if AS used all the extra time slots to air some of their older better shows, and some more good anime.

I think I have found their new logo: [spoiler] [/spoiler] zakkro

That was awesome....

*vomits on keyboard* You joking right?

Well, I don't think anybody is going to care about CN ditching cartoons for live-action programs.

Well, i kind of can't wait for a few of these things coming to cartoon network, i think we should wait and see how they do before we start coming to conclusions.

But i do miss the old days which had more cartoons and toonami.

[QUOTE="Juggernaut140"][QUOTE="axia_777"]

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.

Cartoon Network has been dead for a long time anyway.

My basic cable provider doesn't give me Cartoon Network anymore. Its been like this for over a year now. So the fact its becoming crappier is no loss to me.

Cartoon Network sucked for about 10 yrs now anyway.. The CN I remeber showed classic cartoons (and Boomerang sucks too btw)

Thundercats, Centurions, Looney Toons the list goes on and on...

Meh CN already died in the last couple of years.

When i was a kid i used to watch only CN,all the programs in those days are good also i agree tat they show the same program too many times..

It pretty much wasn't worth watching once they stopped showing looney toons on the weekends. I liked some of their original programming way back in the day but the recent stuff they are putting out is just awful.

I think I have found their new logo: [spoiler] [/spoiler] zakkro

I miss the old Cartoon network logo.

^this new logo sucks

Will never be as good as it used to be, now its even worse.

I haven't watched Cartoon Network in must be nearly 10 years :shock:, Johnny Bravo was always one of my favourites :P

One of the earlier posts reminded me of Two Stupid Dogs..That show was amazing :(

if only those idiots actually showed classic cartoons instead of this modern crap.The_New_Homer

I agree. Although, they do occasionally show Courage & Ed, Edd, & Eddy
