Monthly List of Short Cartoons on Boomerang
I have a request for our moderator and my fellow forum members. Can we create a new sticky every month (like the one that lists the monthly changes to the Boomerang schedule) where we can post the days and times that Hanna Barbera short cartoons are likely to air on Boomerang? I am referring to those brief cartoons (typically 6 or 7 minutes long) that often air between the end of one program and the start of another.
The old Boomerang web site had a detailed schedule I used to decide what shows to record on my DVR so I could see the short cartoons I somehow missed when I was a kid (like The Robonic Stooges, Astro and the Space Mutts, etc). But now the only way to find out what short cartoons are currently airing is to record a whole day's worth of Boomerang shows and fast forward through all of them. I just don't have the time to do that.
Here's my suggestion: when one of us comes across a short cartoon on Boomerang, we post to the sticky the name of the main program, the day it aired and the name of the corresponding short cartoon. Posting the exact air times is unnecessary because of time zone issues and because some cartoons run twice per day on Boomerang.
So basically you would post: "DAY, MAIN PROGRAM, SHORT CARTOON." For example: "Monday, Jabberjaw, Robonic Stooges."
I realize that some days are different than others, and cartoons like The Robonic Stooges don't necessarily air every weekday during the same program or same time slot. But more often than not, these short cartoons are fairly consistent.
Any thoughts?
