Toonami Return Confirmed.

[Fijiman]

The kids of this generation should get an awesome programme slot like we did when it was aired.

To be honest, what needs to happen is for the some of the big networks to stop showing the same episodes from the same five damn shows (which are different for each network) all day and run some more of the old shows that were great more than once a week. They also need to stop listening to or being idiots who are afraid of their wallets shrinking down to anything that doesn't require it's own parking space.

I do plan on at least checking out the new Toonami, but I'm not getting my hopes up.

I'd be much more excited if I didn't know deep down that CN is going to fuck it up somehow.

They already are trying. Adult Swim is writing and making "original anime series" to put on the new Toonami.

Considering how shit almost all of Adult Swim's "original" programming is, this won't end well.

 

[Alssadar]

Kickass! Finally giving me a reason to turn the Tv back on, eh, Adult Swim?
*Spazes out momentarily* Ahem, yes. Though, I hope nostalgia hasn't clouded our judgement and the shows do continue to be awesome.
And freaking Megas XLR needs to be back on the air. Watching it on a laptop does not do it justice.

 

[theswordsmn]

Yeah, I believe their last original attempt at "anime" was Perfect Hair Forever. And while all I wanted was for them to bring back Toonami, now that they are, I'm actually pretty nervous on how it will go...

 

[Gir1yG4m3r]

I don't have a television that I can enjoy this amazing even on....feels bad man.

Is that the legit case?

...If it is then, I'm honestly shocked... not for the obvious reasons but if he was so gun-ho about doing live action tv why didn't they spring for a larger budget? Seriously every sitcom they made looked incredibly low-rent.

 

[Smeggs]

I...I just can't even...

This is too much for me to handle right now...


Okay, I'm over the initial emotional shockwave.

YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!!!!

Hopefully we'll be seeing a return of the old school anime from the 90's and early 2000's too. I could use me some Big O!, Blue Submarine, and Outlaw Star reruns. Also Megas XLR, one of the few good things from Jersey that actually chose to stay there.

Nooooo! Adult Swim, you keep your stuff out of there! Show the classics, damn it!

Your shows are bad unless you watch them stoned, so please, don't subject us to a reboot of Toonami with bad shows. That's cruel.

Big O!

Big O! is already showing on Saturday night (Sunday morning?)

More Big O? Big O has been airing repeatedly for the past two years now, where have you been? I've had to have seen the ending to the series on AS at least five times by now. They play it every Saturday night, twice.

They're not making new shows, they're making an original programming lineup, as in a lineup of new shows as well as the old.

 

[DoctorSun]

While I no longer watch kid TV these days I can only hope that if it is real, the Uk will follow suit. The kids of this generation should get an awesome programme slot like we did when it was aired.

Not trying to offend, but isn't MLP technically "kid TV"?

Oh God please no, I don't think I've ever gone from excited to scared this fast before. Do they even have any experience with anime at all?


Captcha: total shamble <-- I hope not!

ORIGINAL PROGRAMMING LINEUP.

NOT ORIGINAL PROGRAMMING.

TWO DIFFERENT THINGS ENTIRELY.

There, can you see it?

Sorry, I just had to.

That show had one of the sillest but best opening themes ever.

Too bad. I demand you converse with me about this topic, regardless.

What I meant to say was more reruns at a more convenient time slot for me. Something before midnight, maybe afternoon or early evening. When Toonami was still running, it filled my afternoon time slot before things like King of the Hill and Family Guy started playing.

And wait, are you NOT advocating for more Big O! when the chance arises?

I'd love some reruns like what you described. The only channels I know of that do it with something other than cartoons or reality shows are SyFy and its sister network Chiller, both of which just do a marathon of a show apparently chosen by lobbing something at a dart board the night before. A regularly scheduled re-run block that isn't a marathon would be awesome. I'd really love to see a block on SyFy of things like Star Trek, Andromeda, Xena, and Stargate -- you know, the shows that made that channel awesome in the first place?

As for Big O, it really has been played to death on Adult Swim. They don't acquire new shows often, nor do they really dig back into older shows that haven't been constantly on the air in recent years.

Edit: Misread that, I thought you were talking about a Toonami-style block of themed reruns, not specifically re-runs of Big O.
