Hmmm...Gundam might come back to CN.

Just got this from one of the IGN board mods.

Apparentally from a source at www.gundam.com

Mobile Suit Gundam has been pulled from the air from Cartoon Network's Toonami block for the forseeable future as a result of the tragedy that occurred on September the eleventh. AOL/Time Warner has purportedly decided that due to the nature of this show and the atrocities of war that it depicts, now is not the right time to be airing the program. [It's removal is not a result of ratings, as it still recieves an acceptable share. It was not expected to be fully embraced immidiately, it was felt that the animation quality would distract many viewers, the hope was that as more recent shows of the Zeon era were aired, interest would increase.] As for the future of 0080:War in a Pocket, 0083:Stardust Memory, 08th MS team, and the ongoing Zedd Gundam preproduction, they're futures are still unclear at this time. Cartoon Network would still like to continue as planned at some point, but as of now, that may be some weeks off. The preceding was a paraphrasing of memo that has recently gone out in the Cartoon Network offices. the big suprise, in one opinion at least, was that Zeta Gundam is in the works! It seems to make sense, though, as First Gundam was shown on Monday, but not since. Hopefully it will return after a recovery period from the WTC/Pentagon tragedies.

Yes....Zeta Gundam at last. Hopefully there will be a BILINGUAL DVD release of Zeta Gundam this time...

They will probably finish MSG...one day. It makes no sense to air up to the point where only 4 episodes or so are left to go. I guess the show gets a bit too heated for them near the end (as described in my MSG thread below).

This must be the same idea with Cowboy Bebop, as the Bebop crew does have to handle terrorists quite often in the series, and there is a lot of action in or around skyscrapers and buildings.

[Leaping Larry Jojo]

Oh...there goes 08th MS Team as well. At least that got to rerun three or four times, though.

[Flying Grayson]

Well I'm satisfied

[I.R Joey]

And I hear that they're going to air the 12th episode, which deals with NT's.

[Jowy Blight]

Really!? It's about time then, I've been waiting a while to see that.

[Leaping Larry Jojo]

Yeah, but now that all the Gundam shows have been cancelled for the time being, the 12th episode will probably be out on DVD before it even airs on CN.
