View Full Version : Who will win CN or XD
Seeing as though this is happening this week I thought I would make a thread about it this is the schedule and by the way both are the 3rd and 4th place network so this will be hardcore
CN 7-10 Pokemon Movie then hour star wars premiere
XD 7-10 Aaron Stone,Jimmy two shoes,and Kid vs Kat than Narnia
I think CN will win as these names are already known and I will be watching CN because I've seen Kid vs Kat, Aaron stone p1 and Jimmy two shoes on I tunes (Thought the latter has a different episode shownng)
What do you think?

Cartoon Network will certainly win. It's in more households.
CN wins by default, mainly because it's in more homes. I do think that the Aaron Stone simulcast on DC will trounce CN, though.
Personally, I'm going to watch XD's lineup first, switch over to CN, and then catch the beginning of the Pokemon movie on Sunday.

If Disney XD becomes part of the basic cable package like CN is, then they'll give CN some hardy competition.
Hopefully that won't happen.

Just look at the Disney XD promos. The boy-centric trying-too-hard image it's trying to create, along with the lineup, which is mostly lackluster boy-centric shows, ensures Cartoon Network a victory. Plus it's in more houses and has an established audience.

My 2 cents would be for everyone to stop worrying about the ratings and enjoy your programming with a care free mind. CN will win because they are better reguardless of the ratings.

Truer words were never spoken. Everyone around here obsesses too much over ratings and who is beating who. Makes me wonder how anyone is able to enjoy TV when they're so wrapped up in who is doing better than who.

Yeah, people worry too much over things like ratings, and some lose their cool over them. People should put more attention to a block's actual programing and not their ratings.

Honestly, I could not care less if CN was the top rated cable station or the lowest rated, as long as they are airing the shows that I love to watch then they remain #1 with me. Rating's are a headache to IMO.
Nexonius
02-08-2009, 01:27 PM
Besides, when being #1, you have to make bad sacrifices (Canceling shows that's not popular, putting the same shows (crappy or awesome) on everyday, etc.) all the time just to stay on top. Quality is better than quantity.
But really, CN vs. The Ha Ha Very Funny Network? XD's on digital cable. This thread should have been renamed "Nicktoons Network vs. XD?", now that's competition.

Since XD is newer, people will definitely watch it. CN probably deserves it more but let's not forget that Disney and Nick still beat CN despite it having better programing. On the other hand, not everyone has XD. I think it'll be close, but CN will win in the long run.

This isn't about which channel is "better" or "more popular". That's just opinion, which will vary according to one's personal taste. Obviously CN is more popular than Disney Closed-Eyed Grin is right now, since Disney Closed-Eyed Grin hasn't even officially launched yet.

Is there anyone here who honestly thinks that Disney XD could/will trounce Cartoon Network in it's 1st year when CN has been around for at least 10 years longer and is available in many more homes than Toon Disney/Disney XD?
I really wish that fans would stop with the pointless debates about which show/channel/network/studio is better and just learn to appreciate the merits of each. Who really cares which channel gets higher ratings than the other(s)? Has anyone ever said "I'm not going to watch so-and-so channel anymore because it's ratings aren't as high as such-and-such channel"?
But just to answer the question, Toon Disney is in so few homes right now that Cartoon Network wins this one easily.

So true. I completely agree with you. I don't quite understand why so many people here are focused on ratings. As long as a channel is showing a show or movie that I like, I couldn't care less how well it does with the ratings. What's more important to me is that I just simply enjoy what I'm waiting since I thought that is one of the reasons for having a television in the first place.

Personally I feel like the whole reason that people choose sides is because they can, and most people are at that age where they want what they liked to be #1.
Most people when I was in High School, people debated about which video game system was the best, Game Cube, PS2, and Xbox. While I supported the Game Cube and the PS2, while I didn't like some people dissing Nintendo for being "kiddie", I was okay with that because those people didn't know what they were missing, and if they were judging based on that, then they were the ignorant ones. In my last leg of HS it was between the PS3, Wii and 360, most people prefer the 360 and Wii due to variety of games compared to PS3 "NO GAMEZ!"

Once isn't exactly a good track record.Nick has a longer track record, is more widely available, and had already labeled itself in the eyes of the general public as the network for kids. Of course, Cartoon Network can't expect to beat them (though they were the second place kids network, a few years back).

Like I said, I didn't turn a blind eye to the Xbox because I didn't own one, There were some games that appealed to me that didn't justify me to purchase one, and by the time that I wanted one the 360 was coming out, and then i had to play the waiting game again. I liked listening to some of the stories my friends told about Xbox. After all the games I played I enjoyed most, and that all I cared about, I didn't care if a game sold well or poorly, as long as I had fun that what matter. I'm not BAWing over Psychonauts not getting a sequel.
But all I'm saying is that it is ignorant to ignore the whole choosing sides since it is human nature to choose sides. I knew people that are brand loyal to Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo that they think that One is superior while the other are lame. If the console wars have taught me anything that there will be blind fanboys that can't see. After all they aren't that different.

Besides some of the Marvel cartoons airing on XD, there really isn't a whole lot of meat on it's bones, it just seems like it's changing it's name for no reason and slapping a few new shows on it. I probably won't give it the time of day unless a superhero cartoon is airing an nothing else is on CN.

But one it settles into a regular schedule (which won't be until March), it looks like there will be just one rerun.
But I agree ... you can't equate "higher ratings" with "better show." Just not the same thing.

(Pity it also happens to be internet speak for a person laughing hard.)
You know, I've been hearing about this channel for months on this site and yet I never actually knew this. Now, if I saw this channel on the TV and I didn't know anything about this (and I know relatively little now...), I'd think it was a comedy channel designed to make me "XD", or something like that. I know it's not, because I'm well outside of their demographic (I turned sixteen today, when I first joined nearly three years ago I could say that I was in their demographic because I was still in the 9-14 range but I can no longer say that because I am now exclusively in no one's favorite range, 12-17) and I've read about it online, but the average kid doesn't research shows online. I know you're thinking "if they don't spend a lot of time online, then how would they know about XD?" Well, a lot of kids (and I mean young kids... I know one who got a facebook when he was seven) DO have myspaces and facebooks (but don't spend a lot of time talking about tv channels on forums like this)...
Plus, I've actually heard people say ROFL, LMAO, and LOL out loud. It's really stupid as you could demonstrate "laughing out loud" by, y'know, laughing, and it's a lot more disingenuous when you can actually see the person in real life and know they didn't really laugh, they're just saying LOL...
Anyway, my point here was that, even though they shouldn't because they're ridiculous, a lot of people use internet abbreviations in real life and I wouldn't be surprised if there were even some people out there who say XD in real life, even though it's a smilie. It's amazing that whatever advertising executive hadn't seen XD. I know some CN execs lurk here, or at least I've heard they do. Maybe Disney execs should. Because I seriously think their name is going to get them the wrong reputation. I'm not even quite sure what they're supposed to be airing.
Even the full name is pretty stupid. Xtreme Digital? Why would you say your format in your channel's title? You aren't going to see, like, Nicktoons Cable Standard or something. I think this name might even confuse some cable companies. They might be like, "hey, we've already got a Disney Channel, and it's digital and in HD, why the hell do we need an XTREME version of that? It's the same damn thing."
That's why Disney XD is going to lose to CN. Because no one will carry them because they have a stupid name. No one carried Toon Disney because I dunno... too many channels already, and too many like it. Restarting now won't help, especially when a lot of people are probably going to be confused by your channel's very existence.

The old descriptions were the ones that mentioned hell; they also mentioned that Heloise was a serial killer, which in and of itself would be a hurdle. After all, the hell angle was thought up back in 2005 (http://lambey.blogspot.com/2005/10/what-does-hell-look-like.html) when the pitch was being put together, though back then, things looked a lot different. A lot can change in several years. It’s obvious that Miseryville is based on hell. They’ve just chosen to steer clear of the obvious connotations.
Regardless, “Jimmy Two Shoes” should do rather well on Disney XD; it was the highest rated program at MIPCOM, beating out “Batman: The Brave & The Bold” and numerous other shows. Quite an impressive feat. It probably won’t beat out whatever Cartoon Network airs against it, as Disney XD is severely handicapped, but I think it will do fine.

Miseryville = no longer Hell but would feel like it if you had to work there.
Heloise = Misery Inc. inventor with a sadistic side. She can be cute and angry.
Jimmy = Still a nice guy just a little less Flanders and more Johnny Test.
Beezy - Funny slacker voiced by TDI's Brian Froud. Funny
Lucius - Same as before great voice acting by Sean Cullen.
Oh yeah, beware the pickles. (watch the show and eventually you'll get this)

The last summary that I’ve read that mentioned hell was posted back in 2006, which leads me to believe that they decided early on to take a different approach. Back then, “Jimmy Two Shoes” wasn’t even in production, as that began in 2007 (http://www.animationinsider.net/article.php?articleID=1565). Even then, it wasn’t scheduled to air in the United States, as that deal was made in 2008 (http://www.animationinsider.net/article.php?articleID=1778). Regardless, the series as it is was the rated animated program at MIPCOM JUNIOR (http://www.animationmagazine.net/article/9060), even without the original concepts, so I don’t think any of this debate really matters. I say we should enjoy the series for what it is, rather than what it was back when it was pitched.

Aside from Zach & Cody, I find the majority of the DXD to be watchable, but it goes without saying that a channel accessible to the majority will beat out the channel that only a percentage gets.
Case in point, Wolverine And The X-Men had more viewers tuning in during that airing on Nickelodeon than the premiere on Nicktoons.
Now I'd like to think that Disney take that into consideration when CN doe beat XD, but as history shows us, networks only look at the quality or content of their channel when determining success/failure.

XD can not beat CN because it's not in as many homes.

Exactly. It's physically impossible for XD to break out of fourth place the way they are now.

As was mentioned with Wolverine and the X-men, the premere on Nicktoons got the channels greatest ratings ever by over 200% but when Nick aired the first two episodes on the main channel (without the advertisement Nicktoons gave it) It got like four times the ratings.

Given that Disney Closed-Eyed Grin was only just launched yesterday, and that it's still only a digital tier upgrade channel which people have to pay an additional fee on top of their standard cable/satellite fee in order to receive it, coupled with the fact that Closed-Eyed Grin is presently just recycled Jetix lightly sprinkled with a few new shows, most of which are only starting out (Jimmy Two-Shoes, Kid VS Kat, Aaron Stone), are just burning through their remaining episodes (Yin Yang Yo!) or are just re-aired canceled show reruns (Static Shock) its' not placing a dent into CN is a no-brainer.
XD may become a contender someday, after it grows a little and finds its' legs, but it'll still have a long way to go before it reaches CN's place in the running, let alone surpasses it.

Wow, thats a bit of a butt kicking, but Disney XD is new and needs time to grow, plus I think CN is a part of a standard cable package while XD is a part of a digital package or something to that effect.

Aaron Stone: some kid who is mentored by the gay-acting guy from Phil Of The Future inside his video game and a few other flash cartoons with re-runs of Even Stevens and a few other shows.
Vs.
Cartoon Network.
CN for sure!
