Starting monday "Robotboy" will leave Miguzi, only remaining in the Saturday 10:30AM EST slot. "Ben 10" will take it's place and will begin running 2x a day monday (Once at 4:00PM EST and once again at 10:00PM EST.)

Ugh...

Wow.

Now we can catch old episodes of Ben 10 twice a day.

Woot.

Was Robotboy doing poorly in that spot, or does CN figure it can get more viewers by doing that change?

I guess RB couldn't stick. Ben 10 is a great show for Miguzi so I'm glad its back on the block. I would like them to air something else Pre-AS now though but they probably wont change that until after the holidays.

Both good, and bad. I liked the weekday chance to see RobotBoy. The more I watch this show the better I like it, though I'm sure that won't last long after I've seen all the episodes. I also seem to have trouble seeing the 4:00 to 5:00 Miguzi. As much as I like Ben 10, missing shows I've seen won't be as much of a problem. If they could swap it with the Pokemon hour at 5:00, I wouldn't be left with the choice of dvd's while Sharon makes noise or news. :p

I don't think RobotBoy is being well received. I'm surprised CN moved it to Miguzi, though they did the same for JuniperLee once, and I don't think they like it any better. They've not squashed either as badly as DragonHunters, thankfully.

I agree(I hate when a show is overrun thousands upon thousands of times) And i like Ben 10 and Robot Boy equally(they're alright, nothing i need to watch all the time)

I would like them to air something else Pre-AS now though but they probably wont change that until after the holidays. I concur Sketch. If they truly want to have a strong block for Miguzi, sticking it out with Lyoko, Team Galaxy and Ben 10 for starters would be a significant step.

My other gripe with CN management is with Toonami. I mean is it really that hard to find good quality entertainment from 7 to 10 pm on a Saturday? Honestly what else is on?

It's better than Robotboy.It still doesn't make it good.

Doesn't make it bad either. Just means that things aren't always black or white. Or at least there are degrees of evil.

Well it'd be nice if it got rid of a Pokemon series instead of Lyoko (if it's doing that) but Juniper is also a good choice for Miguzi and really deserved a shot at weekdays. But all this show rotation on Miguzi is a bit surprising. Usually they don't change up the line-up that often. They really should put GX back on the block or perhaps give Zatch Bell a weekday slot again but all and all that schedule isn't too shabby.

I wish Miguzi drops both Pokemon shows or atleast one. They have more than enough timeslots. And put back Totally Spies, which both fits the block and is in need of a good timeslot. Then the schedule will be like this:

4:00/3:00-Ben 10
4:30/3:30-Code Lyoko
5:00/4:00-Totally Spies
5:30/4:30-Either Pokemon Series

Looks good.

Totally Spies should return to Miguzi. I mean jeez... it's about the only thing that makes it seem like Miguzi isn't just Toonami Jr. though Juniper helps as well.

Hooray, i actually like Junniper Lee(tho i haven't been catchign the new eps)

But not hooray for taking over Code Lyoko(Eh.., it's reruns, so i don't really mind)

Here's a quick Sched..

Miguzi has to expand to 3-6, it makes a lot of sense to expand since it got pokeman..

Monday-Thursday..

3:00 Teen Titans
3:30 Totally Spies!

Perfect Lead in for block, a mix of Early Guz..

4:00 Code Lyoko
4:30 Yu-Gi-Oh GX

I like this combo as well, since these shows often premrie together, why not keep em together

5:00 Zatch Bell!
5:30 Pokeman

Chronicles gets run at least twce a year in 5:30 spot(So like May and December..). I think Zatch Bell! would be nice to air on Miguzi again, though it's not that great of a fit as some other stuff, i think Miguzi should be 50 percent anime(3:00-4:30 is non-anime/Early Guz, 4:30-6:00 is anime and newer guz with no show airing earlier than summer 2005 i believe)

Friday should be different from m-th

Since i consdier the satam block miguzi, and most of the shows on it
have aired/ aired related shows on Miguzi, why not just make it miguzi?

The Following are encores unless noted..

3:00 Yam-Roll Kingdom/Robot Boy
3:30 Team Galaxy

Team Galaxy should air 3:30, making 3.5 the Marathon Spot, While Robot Boy or Yam Roll(Which i think should and will end up on satam block) will get the 3:00 encore slot(probally yam-roll or whichever one is airing new eps)

4:00 Code Lyoko(New)
4:30 Yu-Gi-Oh GX(New)

Move the 7:30 Gx premrie om Toonami to Miguzi to make it a Guz exclusive, and i think Code Lyoko could, but probally won't, start airing new eps..

5:00 Ben 10
5:30 Pokeman Battle Frontier

Nothin much to say..

^Toon Overlord, is that really the schedule, or what you think it should be?

I'd heard Juniper Lee was coming back but couldn't confirm it. Great I love that show. I hope they run The World According to LARP

Oddly enough they've chosen to show Juniper Lee in reverse order. So Monday's was the most recent episode, Tuesday is the one before that, Wednesday is the one before that... Fridays is a much earlier one, but Friday night's is a new one.

Anyways, I'm glad to see June getting some weekday love. The third season feels like it's been building up to something big, and I'm afraid if people come back to see it they'll be quite confused to find all of the development that took place scattered across the season.

Anyways, hope to see more June and I hope you all enjoy it enough for CN to justify it's continued existance.

Agreed. Winick has a possible winner here if the ratings hold up and CN doesn't screw him over. Also I have to admit, I love hearing Lara Jay Miller's voice. Don't ask me why that is. I'm getting softer than usual I guess.

I am so happy that Juniper Lee is on at a reasonable time now. Showing new episodes only once at a bad Friday timeslot is inexcusable, especially for how good this show is.

Kyuss
12-13-2006, 11:15 PM
RS,

Agreed. This show has much better potential than the executives at this network believe it to be. Especially consider Winick helming it. (I'm not 100% sold on him as a comic book person, but his style and designs are pretty interesting. It also helps to have a stellar voice cast.)

What happend to Lyoko? Did it change spots to Saturday in the morning again?

Kyuss
12-18-2006, 11:58 PM
I believe they removed it for the time being. I doubt though it will stay gone forever. It's a proven draw (at least when there's a new season of it.)

Eh.. Moonscoop claim's that there is going to be a new season out for Code Lyoko. But I'm not sure when this stuff is going to air.

I'll have to check twice..

Phantom,

I'm aware of that but they still have to air it in France first before it becomes available here.

I've known that they have to air in France first, But i'm just wondering If there putting the new season on yet. I bet it wont be out for a while though, depends.

Kyuss
12-19-2006, 12:24 AM
My understanding is the new season in France isn't over yet. When that is done, then I believe there is the usual "dub waiting period" before it airs here.

Kagetsu

Over at lyoko.net, they have screen caps through episode #65. So France 3 should be finished showing all of season three. I've not seen any mention of season 4 short of the early character art, but it will likely start about the same time here as in France. i believe season three started about equal but we saw the ending first and I don't think they've seen the prequel at all yet. But I'm not certain.

Agreed. This show has much better potential than the executives at this network believe it to be. Especially consider Winick helming it. (I'm not 100% sold on him as a comic book person, but his style and designs are pretty interesting. It also helps to have a stellar voice cast.) TLaToJuniperLee has a very unique humour that I've not seen in any other show. and they do have wonderful VA's. I'm amazed at the amount of hate it seems to get. I've never seen JakeLong, but it's compared constantly as the same. I can't imagine it's anything like JuniperLee, beyond "magical kids".
