I'm sad courage is over, but if John Dilworth is working on another cartoon, that makes up for it a bit. As long as we have reruns, love live Courage.

Wow, great news! 2 new series and another season of E,E,nE. I wonder who decided to do more Eds? Well it was time for Courage to go and I'd really like to see Dilworths other ideas.

Does this mean Powerpuff Girls is cancelled after this years' season?

There's only a CHANCE of their being a fifth season. Just because their is no "offical" cancellation dosen't mean that they are making any new episodes. I hope their are more episodes, but I'm kinda of doubtful there will be any.

While there is no offical word of a new season, I find it doubtful that they would stop making new episodes of one of Cartoon Network's most popular and sucessive shows. Then again, Craig is working on a new show (The Imaginary Friends Foster Home thing. That reminds me; do you think that their will be at least a mention of Koosy (From Dexter's Lab) or Peaches (Powerpuff Girls) will be in that show?). Perhaps it may be cancelled, but I still doubt it.

Otherwise, this news is pretty cool. I wonder what Dilworth's new project will be about.

At first I was really upset about this news on Courage's cancellation, but then I thought of something. If Dilworth was to keep on with Courage, CN probably wouldn't have let it go for more than one or two years, since they don't like to hang on to shows that long. But now that Dilworth has a new show, he'll pobably get another 4 years to show his talent, just like he did with everyone's pink pooch. I hope they let Courage make some cameos in it.

As Much as I would love that, I'm not sure that's quite true, that is unless Danny has had a drastic change of heart in the last few weeks and CN really wants them.
I'm sure any deal about eps 53-66 will be announced by him or someone there at AKA.

Still a bit shocked and suprised that CN would consider waiting an enitre year between episode premires. Maybe UK will be getting those first. Like the begining eps of S3. In any case....

Just hurry!

Still no mention of Z Gundam...

[Obi]

Wonder who will take over Lazzo's spot..

[Animation Otaku]

I'd love for there to be a fifth season of the Eds, but somehow I doubt Danny would just change his mind so quickly. Plus, I thought they had already planned out the final episode and it was supposed to wrap up the show.

[sockhead]

Woo! more EE&E! Or atleast a small chance of it.

[Yuss]

Like the others said about EEnE, it doesn't seem to be CN's decision to make. The crew's decided to end the show, so it doesn't matter whether CN's calling it cancelled.
