GOD DAMN IT CARTOON NETWORK!

[MajorTomServo]

I'm mad at cartoon network for a different reason. Specifically, the whole "Let's not release complete seasons of Adventure Time or Regular Show, just 8 episode samplers."

DAMN IT CARTOON NETWORK YOU HAVE ADULT FANS TOO, WHO HAPPEN TO BE COMPLETIONISTS. NO EPISODE GAPS OR OVERLAPS! GIMMIE SEASONS!

if you like those two shows, you might be interested in(assuming you haven't already seen) this:

was watching through them just now
((sorry OP for the offtopic))

That'd be the same as torrenting them, which would be stealing. I want Cartoon Network to take my money, they just won't make it easy for me.

I guess what I'm saying is I was really surprisd I genuinly liked regular show and world of gumball..I'm not saying its preferable to the current situation (having barley any cartoons on cartoon network)

I was never familiar with alot of those shows as I didnt have "cable" when I was a kid, my memory of cartoon network is having to watch it because my cousin would hog the remote...I didnt like it much as a kid and I liked it less as I got older

 

[waj9876]

...Meh. Didn't really get into either shows.

On the plus side, I was a huge fan of Teen Titans, and I don't really care that this Teen Titans Go! thing is going to be comedy based. So yeah, kind of excited for that. (Thought it wasn't successful enough, this is a pleasant surprise.)

 

[Irridium]

Hopefully another network (Adult Swim for one) can pickup Young Justice and Green Lantern (thrown in to be fair) and run new episodes.

I wouldn't be surprised if they appear on Toonami at some point like Thundercats and Sym-Bionic Titan. Two decent animated shows Cartoon Network cancelled as well.

Dammit, Cartoon Network...

 

[ramboondiea]

you know, few things make me feel as old as when i stumble into a thread that talks about cartoon network, and i literally have no idea what the shows they are talking about are, i mean your sad they cancelled a show, i am still waiting to see if jack can make it back to his own time! RAWWR! (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻

The only reason to really pop over to cartoon network anymore is for Toonami (here's hoping for another season of deadman wonderland)

I think Deadman wonderland ran outa funding several years ago so they had to cut the series very abruptly. So sadly there isn't going to be a second season.

OT: Yeah I started losing hope in Cartoon network when they stopped showing Courage the cowardly dog. I miss my nostalgia

Actually you'll be pleased to know there is still a chance that a 2nd season to come to fruition, given that the manga will soon start up again, once Jinsei Kataoka finishes her maternity leave. If the new manga gains interest, a second anime season could well be green-lit.

Hell I love DW so much I painted Shiro's face on my Fender Stratocaster, I'm sure there are more fans who would pay good money on new material.

I have no idea what any of this means.

 

[MrHide-Patten]

Death, Taxes and Cartoon Network.

I at least hope they're allowed to finish off this season of Young Justice with some closure, but that would be too good to be true.

 

[Mau95]

How many cartoons do they have running now? Cause this image comes to mind.

Spoiler

Blargh I'm really gunna miss Young Justice...

I never watched cartoon network as you had to have cable (foxtel) however I find regular show and world of gumball to be waaaaaaaay better than the stuff in that first image...thats just me as an adult though

How can you find World of Gumball to be better than Samurai Jack or Batman or PPG or The Flinstones or Scooby-Doo? Though I don't think the image is about the quality, but the quantity.

 

[Quadocky]

Five steps forward, a hundred steps back as usual with this Station.

I'd actually still watch cartoon network habitually IF they actually had something good on it like the days of yore.

Actually now that I think about it, I STOPPED watching cartoon network because they removed Toonami and the other really great cartoons and started shoveling the most pandering BS I've ever seen. (by which I mean the real life stuff, I watched Cartoon Network to get away from that crap)

Thankfully, the current cartoons are pretty much just fine, like Regular Show and Adventure Time. Overall I find Regular Show to be much more interesting as it appears to be less formulaic than Adventure Time which for some reason bothers me enough to like Adventure Time less than Regular Show.

That, and Regular Show is hilarious in the way it takes overall simple things and turns it into a fantastic scenario. The abstractions being quite clever along with the cultural allusions. My favorite one being the sorta subtle reference to that Macintosh ad '1984'.

 

[Faewerd]

I wish they've kept the more kid-like oldschool cartoons like ed edd n eddy and powerpuff girls, most new shows kinda suck some are good but not as good as the older ones, maybe it's just me that grew up watching those cartons, i still watch it even though i'm 21 now, adventure time is awesome too

 

[Beautiful End]

CN has disappointed me for a while now. I sort of watch it only because of adventure Time, Regular Show and Gumball, maybe. Oh, and Adult Swim, if I feel like watching FMA:B reruns. And...*sigh* Sym-biotic Titan. God, that show is good.
AND IT WAS ALSO AXED!

But fuck, how did Annoying Orange get another season?! As a Youtube thing, it was...fine, I guess, because it was just a small dosage of annoying. But seriously, watching it for more than 2 minutes is just torture. Same jokes, bad content, predictable, just plain, boring and dumb. True, something like, let's say, Spongebob is not meant to be Shakesperian but at least its better than Orange!

And they wonder why more and more people are abandoning cable TV.

Yeah, I'm also looking at you, Nickelodeon. But that's for another day...

Hopefully another network (Adult Swim for one) can pickup Young Justice and Green Lantern (thrown in to be fair) and run new episodes.

I wouldn't be surprised if they appear on Toonami at some point like Thundercats and Sym-Bionic Titan. Two decent animated shows Cartoon Network cancelled as well.

Dammit, Cartoon Network...

Whoa, whoa, whoa! They cancelled Thundercats?! Why?! I admit I was skeptical about that reboot at first but it's really good, maybe better than the original! And I love the original! What the flying fuck, CN?!
I'm not even gonna start on Sym-Biotic Titan. That poor, beautiful show...

Okay, the lesson here is: If you like a show in CN, don't get attached to it. Except for maybe Adventure Time, which seems to be the only thing CN cares about anyway.

What's truly sickening, to me at least, is that in addition to axing Young Justice (never watched Green Lantern: TAS ) but they are bringing back these shows-

? Almost Naked Animals

? Scaredy Squirrel

? Scooby-Doo! Mystery Inc.

? Johnny Test

? Annoying Orange

This move just goes to show that Cartoon Network is the Fox of cartoons. Shows with thought out, intelligent overarching story-lines and well-rounded multidimensional characters get cut and shows with three or four different plots and flat or one-dimensional characters continue to get renewed.

Hopefully another network (Adult Swim for one) can pickup Young Justice and Green Lantern (thrown in to be fair) and run new episodes.

OK THAT FUCKING DOES IT johnny test i can stand but the other shows I WILL NOT STAND FOR THIS!!!!!!! JOHNSON!!, THROW EVERYTHING WE HAVE AT THEM!!
Johnson: gladly sir fire everything
soldier: everything sir?
Johnson: EVERYTHING!!!!!!!

 

[Judgment90]

I swear, CN has been on the decline since 2004.

List of good cartoons they have removed since 2000:

Samurai Jack
Johnny Bravo
Courage
Megas XLR
innumerable amounts of Toonami anime

Seeing as the first pic has Scooby-Doo, Flintstones, and Looney Toons in that picture I definitely disagree with you on that. (Not to mention Dexter's Lab, Powerpuff girls, and Johnny Bravo. But come on, Looney Toons man...)

I fucking HATE scooby doo

For most of 7 years now CN has been a joke they couldn't even finish Samurai Jack and when they get a good show like Foster's they cancel it and stick Johnny Test in as filler (a show that wasn't even good enough for Saturday television).
I don't even have cable now mostly because there's nothing to watch. When I go over to my friends' apartment they basically channel surf till they see something like 1000 ways to die then they force themselves to watch it to justify paying for the drivel.

Show's like Regular Show are pretty original but I just wait till Netflix has them and watch them all at once.
