Spring ahead--Fall back

[Joe Tully]

Daylight savings time ends this weekend, so we will be getting one extra hour of sleep between Sun. night and Mon. morning. Does anyone here know what will happen with the Toon schedule that night? CN will have an extra hour to fill when the clocks are set back at 2 AM. Personally, I'm hoping for an extra long LNB&W. And if no one knows for sure what's going to happen, does anyone remember what they did last year?

I thought the time change happened between Satuday night and Sunday. :confused:

Yer right PorkyandDaffy. Stupid me. Well anyways, still keeping this idea active, does anyone know what will go on with Sat night/Sun. morning's Tom and Jerry at 1:30 or Acme Hour at 2:00 which will be around the time of the change? Will we see extra of these? Maybe a 3 hour Acme Hour?

Now excuse me while I go kick myself...

Usually what happens is that every year Cartoon network shows a movie. The first year it was an extra Acme Hour and got goodies that night.


The last two years they showed Dragonball Z: Dead Zone since its the only movie they have that only lasts exactly one hour. HOWEVER Dead Zone JUST aired on Toonami in flight movies week before last, and any DBZ fan that isnt an outright fanatic will tell you that Dead Zone is just a dull dull movie, especially after the Saban edits. And I doubt they'll re-air it again that soon anyway since it just aired after the Reboot premiere last week. So I guess its really up in the air this time.


Maybe an extended Acme Hour again? I'd like to say that but I dont know.

I dont know know if Worlds Strongest (The Best of the 4 DBZ Movies currently owned by CN)is one hour (I think its an hour and a half which would not make it work in the Daylight Saving Timeslot. But Toonami usually SAVES that one considering its popularity. So I doubt they'll show it either.

So who knows.


Hopefully we will get an Acme Hour this year
