Saturday Mornings-10:30: What Are YOU Watching?: Static or TMNT?

[Anarky]

Feb 8th, FOX is debuting the highly-anticipated TMNT at 10:30, which just happens to parallel Static Shock.

Who are you gonna watch?

[JohnStewart-GL]

NO!!!!!!!! They did it! they put em against each other. I guess ill probly watch static but i'll try and jugle both. i like both shows but statics season should be great.

[Anarky]

i'm watching and recording all the turtle eps (if it's good)
i'll only record the static xover eps (4)

i thought fox was going to schedule them at 10 or somewhere in the 11-hr spot but surpise, 10:30

[Patrick Bateman]

TMNT of course. Man, I grew up on that stuff, and the new gritty look is awesome.

[keds1017]

:mad: :mad: :mad: Damn!!! i thought it was at 10! Now I will have to chose Ummm.... I'll just watch Static and then catch the reruns of the Turtles :( I hope the new turtles are good as the old series. Damn!!!

[LazyReaper]

Static Shock. I have to say that I'm not too excited about TMNT. Besides... I got satellite, so I'll get to watch both of them anyway... :p

[Batman49]

Both.................somehow. :D

[czyznyck99]

Some of us lucked out. TMNT is at 10:30, but us West Coast people get Static at 9:30. :cool:

Later.

[Batman49]

Thanks czyznyck99! :D I guess I know how I'll be watching both shows now. :p

[Manhunter]

Aw man, I'm screwed!

[Metallo]

Watching Static of course. Not a big fan of TMNT...

[Joe Wagner]

Both. Seeing as how all of my WB stuff gets taped at my gf's (I don't have WB :( ) I will be able to tape off the new TMNT episodes at my house and enjoy them both.

EDIT: I went ahead and added a third option to the poll for all of us that voted both.

-Joe!

[The Detective]

Static Shock. I'm going to try to catch this season and I'm not really looking forward to TMNT. I'll probaly watch the first one.

[BLACKHEART]

IF I'm up and that's a big IF I'll be watching Spider-Man and his Amazing friends

[Cyber E.]

This isn't even a contest, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is the one, the only, the best, DA FLIPPIN' BOMB!! I would brutally hurt myself if I choose otherwise.

[Clayface]

10:30 am? On a Saturday?

I'll be watching the inside of my eyelids, since I'll still be asleep.

I'm not a fan of Static, so in the off chance I was actually up at that time, I'd watch TMNT.

[Terminatah]

According to the Fox Box Schedule (http://forums.toonzone.net/showthread.php?s=&threadid=65052) posted by Colin in the News board, TMNT's first episode airs at 10:30 AM this Saturday (2/8), and then re-airs at 8:30 AM next Saturday (2/15), followed by another new episode at 10:30 AM. If this is common practice at the Fox Box, then you Static fans won't have to worry about watching the two things at once. You'll just have to worry about waking up two hours earlier for those next-week reruns. Or you could just forget that and tape one while watching the other.

Fortunately, I don't have this problem, because I don't watch Static. :cool:

[Sparvid]

Well, none since I live in Sweden, but my vote goes to TMNT anyway ;)

[Samhaine]

I don't get WB, so that makes my decision easy: TMNT. Plus, I have a loyalty to the green guys. I've already got almost all the new toys - I don't think I'd ever buy a Static figure.

[BeastBoyWonder]

Static is a fascinating and innovative concept... I really like the idea of the hero and the direction in which he's heading, and I think that he's a great role model (especially for younger children). Despite criticisms that Static isn't "dark" or "realistic" enough, I feel that Static is much more down-to-earth and realistic than many other cartoons that currently exist. It raises many issues that deserve contemplation, and offers insight to the regular stresses of adolescense as well as all of the other cool fantasy elements like the electricity stuff.

Having said that, I'm still going to have to go with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, at least at first. I watched a lot of the show as a child, and I enjoyed it greatly. Static is really cool, but I am attracted to the humorous charm of the Turtles, and hopefully this new series will live up to the appeal of the original movie, cartoon, and comic. Only time will tell... I'll certainly be trying my best to catch both, but TMNT gets my attention mainly because of the personal connection that I have with it.

[JusticeLeagueLegion]

Static Shock, I don't know if I'll ever watch TMNT or not...I used to watch the original series when I was a little kid back in the '80s but it's not really something I'm into much...maybe the new show will be better though.

[stwasm]

I'm catching the end of "Mystery Science Theatre 3000" on Sci-Fi network unless Batman or Superman is making a special appearance.

[Cere]

I'll be watching both of them. This is the first season I've watched Static Shock, so I'll give it a chance, but I have to watch TMNT! I've been a HUGE fan of the Turtles since I was...seven, I think.

I envy all of you who get to sleep in. I have to be out of town at 6:30 tomorrow morning (but I can sleep on the way), so I have to record everything tomorrow (thank goodness for two VCRs). I'll have about four hours of Sat. morn. cartoons waiting for me when I get home.

[The Penguin]

This season I was planning on giving Static a shot, but I sleep at 9:30 (my time) on Saturdays so I can only tape one. And this week (and in the coming weeks) it was the Turtles. I don't have anything against Static, but I gotta go with Leo, Don, Mike and Raph.

[Corran Horn]

TMNT. I like what they've done with it.

[wonderfly]

I'll give TMNT the chance, and if it doesn't shine, I'll go back to Static Shock, (not that I really like Static Shock)...
