THANK YOU! It's about time it gets a solid time slot at a network that cares! And do you know when they will be airing Unmasked? This is the best Batman Beyond news since the uncut DVD was announced! GREAT!

This is really great...I was really afraid that we were gonna have to wait forever before Batman Beyond was picked up by another network. I can't wait to see Unmasked...I hope it airs soon! :D

This is GREAT news! Finally, BB will be shown by a network that actually CARES about it! And you know what would make this even more perfect? For CN to show it right after or before Justice League! Ahhhhhhhh.................... this is a dream come true! Goodbye KidsWB! I shall never watch you and your crappy programing again!
See ya!

Told'ja we'd see it one way or the other!
CN is pretty good about airing episodes in order, so it may be a while before we get to see it. Or, if CN is smart, they'll hype the premiere up with the "lost episode" first. I'm sure when the schedule's made, someone will tell us.

Just a thought... it wasn't long after CN got "Batman: TAS" that they aired Mask of the Phantasm on their "Cartoon Theater." One can only guess that ROTJ will eventually make it's way to being shown on there as well, now that they are picking up BB. Think CN will have the guys to show it the way we want to see it... uncut? :p

Well we'll be seeing "Unmasked" a lot sooner than if the show stayed on kidsWB. Let's see, the series has 52 ep's, CN likes to play things by production number, so I'd say we can look forward to "Unmasked right around late Dec. - early Jan.
The best part is CN will have the option to order new episodes (but will most likely only do so if ratings are very good) and they'll probably show RotJ as one of the in-flight movies which will be returning right around that time. Which version of the movie is anybody’s guess. While I wouldn't be suprised if they showed the cut version, I also wouldn't be suprised if they showed the uncut version (I can see the tag-line now: BB RotJ - Uncut -- the version some people didn't want you to see).
And if, and I'm saying a big IF here, all this does come to pass (very good ratings, new ep's, RotJ uncut) maybe the live action BB movie might still have a chance.

I hate to be the devil's advocate here, but I certainly think that they would show the edited version of ROTJ if it showed up on Cartoon Theater. Now, if they showed it as a feature movie as part of Adult Swim, we might see the uncut version on TV, but considering the edited version is the one that is widely available commercially, and the uncut version is being sold only thru comic book stores and such via DC Current (is that the right name for them??) I doubt we will see the uncut version on TV.

It's great to see BB will be on a network with some competence behind it. KWB's treatment of the show has been more embarrassing than anything I've seen. The fact this BB is considered one of the ebst cartons ever made just shows how horrible KWB did with it. CN will make everything right.

if there will be new episodes on CN, who would be involved? everyone has gone on to other projects such as JLA, zeta, and static shock.

The only crew who can do this show is the crew who did the original 52 episodes. I wouldn't accept anyone else. I just don't think it'll be back becuase the team is just to spread apart now with different jobs. To get them all togethor at one time would be nothing short of a miracle.

NOTE TO SELF: Do something for Bird Boy one of these days, cuz you'll get a year's supply of Twinkies....
Wonderfull news. After what felt like a friggin eternity we can FINALY say GOODBYE to KidsWB!!! Don't think it hasn't been a little slice, of Heaven KidsWB! Cuz it hasn't!!! Hoo hoo!
I don't think we'll get UNMASKED for a while though, because CN has a habbit of not only showing episodes in production order, but they like to save unaired episodes so they appear to be new ones. Well I don't care, cuz it's an insignificant price to pay to be on a network that actually cares about me. Isn't that sweet? :D
