GRRRRRR Cartoon Network

[The Green Hornet]

hey guys thanks for not airing Superman this week

lord knows the timeslot is just SUCH prime tv real estate

i dont care if its daylights saving

just cut johnny quest or whatever this week and show us superman

[langden alger]

what? and miss out on airing some scooby doo and dragon ball z?? lord knows when you'll get to see those shows again.... :rolleyes:

[The Green Hornet]

god forbid they delay airing yet another pissing match fight on DBZ for a day

we get STAS/BTAS ONCE A WEEK

but hey

we all know DBZ and scooby should come first

[langden alger]

hey, there's always hope for a new "BATARANG" network...24 hr's of nothing but stas, btas, tnba, batman beyond and justice leauge..i could probably live with that. :D

[William C. Maune]

[indent]Er, DBZ has nothing to do with this. None of its timeslots are anywhere near Batman's or Superman's.

[langden alger]

thanx for the memo...

[The Mad Hatter]

Okay, calm down everyone. I think Batman and Superman got dropped for this weekend simply because their timeslot fell on the hour we're skipping this Sunday (in the Eastern time zone, of course). Yes, it sucks, but they'll be back next weekend. Life goes on, the Earth continues to turn.

[Killtacular]

That's exactly it, actually.

[The Green Hornet]

no my problem is that they show TONS of DBZ/Scooby but ONE hour a week for STAS/BTAS and its at bloody 1 AM

and then they have the nerve to drop it for daylights savings

they should have dumped johnny quest (not that i dislike johnny)

[Livewire]

I agree, Green Hornet, that it is a disappointment that S:TAS and B:TAS won't be shown, but it couldn't be helped. They air at 2:00 AM, which just happens to be when some people have to put their clocks one hour ahead. I live on the East Coast, which means that the whole 2:00 AM hour will be skipped for me, so there won't be any way for Supes or Bats to air in their original timeslot. At least we're only missing S:TAS and B:TAS this week, thank goodness. Next week everything will be back to regular. (Well, everything will be back to regular as soon as I get used to the changed times. ;) )

If I have to surf by Cartoon Network and see Ed, Edd, and Eddy one more time I will jump from the tallest building in town because this show is on EVERYDAY! I'm sorry, but the owners of Cartoon Network better get to work on an action oriented network so we don't have to put up with this crap anymore. In the meantime, I'm going to watch my DVD's.

[BatChick]

I have to agree with everyone here. It's not fair that we lose out on seeing Bats and Supes they could have shown it at 10pm instead. And please don't think I don't enjoy seeing JL and BB but they show BB everyday and JL is repeated earlier in the day on saturdays.

Hey GlK2K can I join ya on that building? I too can't stand ed edd and eddy.

You know, I actually remember complaining back in the day about CN showing nothing but old shows. Granted they hadn't been recast in years, some decades, and we all complained about it. We wanted new material. If only we knew we would be bombarded with endless hours of these new shows on a daily basis.

I believe the real problem is you can't please everyone, but let's be fair. I know this is a twenty four hour network and they will push forward their best shows to get viewership. However, the Cartoon Network has a library of millions of shows and thousands of televisions series half of which they own. They need to start thinking about a more structured schedule.

Library of "millions" of shows?

No they don't.

I know Batman and Superman was not on because of Boomeraction but don't worry they will be back :D
