Astro Dude Posted January 20, 2011 Report Share Posted January 20, 2011 Ok I am sick and tired of Adult Swim. Airing mature programming wasn't enough but to air it at 9 p.m., that's going too far. If you feel like Cartoon Network should go back to the way it used to be, please say so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taichi Masaki Posted January 20, 2011 Report Share Posted January 20, 2011 I'm pretty sure that all that they air at 9 p.m. on Adult Swim is King Of The Hill twice. King Of The Hill use to come on a bit earlier than that when it was on Fox. What's the big deal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacoby746 Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 What I don't get is why they play adult swim on the same network as cartoon network back to back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larxene Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 Uhh... Are you retarded? Adult Swim is the only thing on CN worth watching anymore. And even that isn't all that great either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yang Xiao-Long Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 Adult Swim was good only because it had Toonami. Now that Toonami's gone, it just plain sucks. Except on Saturdays, when it airs anime at midnight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That idiot at the top decided to put live-action shows on a CARTOON channel. And every classic cartoon is now on Boomerang, which I think most people don't have anyway. It's just re-runs anyway >.< Adult Swim is worse than it ever was in recorded history. They only show anime for one night, and it's usually just one or two episodes of certain anime.

Jake the Sage Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 I'll say this that it was a sad day indeed when Toonami was taken off the air, however we were slightly blessed with the time slot called Miguzi that showed a bit of anime still . . . until CN f*cking took THAT off the God D*mn Air!!! Now in order to get any kind of real good cartoons I have to go to Nickalodeon, Danny Phantom , Avatar: The Last Airbender, Invader Zim, Dragonball Kai, etc, and . . . *shudders* F*CKING DISNEY CHANNEL!!!!! *falls onto the floor seething in anger* And I hate Disney with a passion . . . I agree that if CN would return to their old policies and begin airing REAL cartoons, with actual stories instead of these abortions they are passing off . . . because that's all they are, cartoons that never went to full term and remain as a shrivled lump of [u]sh*t[/u] lying on the floor, okay where was I? Oh yeah! CN would quickly return to the top of the cartoon network charts like it once was. Seriously even Nick knows that what they are showing isn't as good as what they should have, except for the ones I've mentioned and a couple others [Hell Avatar: The Last Airbender was named best cartoon of 2010], since they're bringing back one of the three cartoon shows that made them what they are today for a short time. If none of you "younger people" don't know what I am refering to I speak of the "Rin & Stempy Show" . . . So what can Cartoon Network do to improve upon itself and rise back to the top? Well instead of them waiting the rest of our lives GUESSING over it or spending hundreds of millions of dollars doing research to figure it out . . . I've come up with a simple [i][b][u]Six Step Process[/i][/b][/u] that'lll bring them back to the top. You're Welcome Cartoon Network- ENJOY! Cartoon Network Goals to Success: 1.) Cancel ALL sh*tty cartoons you are currently airing. As it stands you wont have much filled up airspace . . . but that is why you move onto- 2.) Begin reairing the classic cartoons you once used too. Hell you guys already own Boomerang so just move'em back for a few months/years and begin working on new f*cking cartoons . . . REAL CARTOONS! 3.) This one is VERY important . . . PLACE NEW GOOD CARTOONS ON THE AIR!!!! with the new cartoons you'll finally be able to remove the classic cartoons back to Boomerang for retirement again. Now with a new line-up of actual watchable cartoons you can do the next step 4.) Remove all reality based, meaning anything with an actual f*cking face NOT drawn on a sketch board, off the air premanently and make a widespread rule to never make that mistake again. Seriously how can you be [b]Cartoon[/b] Network if you have real people on the air?! 5.) With the real people out of the way you'll have a bit of spare room. Worried you wont be able to fill that time up without having to either bring in sucky cartoons or the boomerang crew? No problem, just ask Japan for anime and you'll be happy to see how much f*cking sh*t you'll have. I mean . . . HELL! There is enough anime to fill an entire days worth of time up without ever having to trade the shows out, unless they end of course. Oh hey! Isn't THAT an idea! An entire day dedicated to anime, why not put it on SATURDAY when most children will be HOME so they can watch it- I'm sure that'll boost the ratings you dumb a$$es 6.) Sit back in your fancy leather chairs, probably stroking some spoiled pursian cat, you sip your imported expressio and enjoy the millions of dollars you'll be making from children's happiness you greedy b*stards! CARTOON NETWORK BACK TO THE WAY IT WAS OR I'LL KILL A KITTEN!!!!

Taichi Masaki Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 Great...now this has turned into yet ANOTHER let's hate CN thread. I'm guessing you guys REALLY hate King Of The Hill, Boondocks, Robot Chicken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake the Sage Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 I've watched them, don't really understand what is so great about them though . . . Also I am "hating" on the crappy shows Cartoon Network has put on in the past couple of years. I want real good shows that doesn't sound like something meant for the mentally retarded. Serioulsy?! 'The Marvelious Misadventures of Flapjack' . . . 'Adventure Time' . . . 'Dude What Would Happen?" all of them should never have been taken off the idea line and given the time to be made. Remember how 'Adventure Time' was previewed? No? Let me refresh your memory a bit, they had a REAL kid running through the streets, wearing the cartoon guy's outfit, f*cking YELLING at people passing by asking 'what time is it?!?!?!?!?' I'll gladly let you know if I had been in ANY of those shoes I'd've gladly knocked the little hyperactive sh*t's lights out for 1.) Yelling at me, 2.) spazing out in front of me and 3.) invading my personal space I don't hate EVERYTHING on Cartoon Network JUST because it's there, but I do hate how LITTLE there is. I like Ben 10, Generator Rex, and any other number of shows that I think pass the grade. But the truth is that ammount doesn't make up for the countless HOURS they've waisted producing shows I can't even get through the opening credits for.

Taichi Masaki Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 I said this in a few of the other countless "CN sucks now" threads that are made every month. Stop watching CN plain and simple. Watch Disney XD or Nicktoons. CN will realize they are losing viewers and do something about it. I think they're currently on there way of doing something now. In June they revealed that a new Thundercats was in production. If you didn't like Thundercats,, something's wrong with you guys. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack of All Spades Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 HAVE YOU ALL LOST YOUR MINDS?!? Adult Swim is home to some of the BEST Anime on the air (granted as late as 11:30) and funniest shows available (watch 'Delocated' and tell me you were too jaded to laugh...). If you want more anime, petiton to bring back Toonami. Fans of the popular block of anime (Dragonball Z, Naruto, etc.) were left yearning for more. A fanbase of 5,000,000+ viewers can't be wrong, and Toonami needs to bring it back over to CN's schedule. I don't care if it replaces CN Real, I'd be more than happy to live with that. _AND DON'T FORGET, some people like American cartoons more than anime. At least 21,439,264 watch and like Family Guy (and counting), and 20% of the fans are on Adult Swim. So, your tearing into their views and replacing them with your own. Now don't me wrong anime is cool and all, but I'm putting the public first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tentacruel Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 I find it hilarious that Adult Swim isn't really meant for adults at all. None of the humor in any of that crap is "mature," it's just a bunch of crap that is deemed "inappropriate for kids," and is passed off as "mature humor." Hey look! We're making an obvious sex joke!

Sweetie Belle Posted January 22, 2011 Report Share Posted January 22, 2011 I watch Robot Chicken and Boondocks from time to time. But if this is a CN hate network, the fact that it's so stupid is 1) The FCC is really cracking down on what people are allowed to air. 2) Shows are continually being aimed at younger and younger children, who don't know better.

Catterjune Posted January 22, 2011 Report Share Posted January 22, 2011 Adult Swim is the only decent thing still giving on CN (until Mystery Incorporated comes back), and even then that's not saying much considering how bad it's gotten. Nickelodeon's only got two halfway decent shows still on the air, Spongebob and iCarly, and they play them [b]ALL[/b].[i]THE[/i].[s]TIME[/s]. Nicktoons is significantly better becuase they still show The Last Airbender. "Lol, let's show cartoon cartoons again!" Meh... >_> I'd perfer Looney Tunes TBQH. They've got enough to run 72 hours of Bugs Bunny in June, and that's just one cartoon. I miss stuff like Tex Avery, Toon Heads, and the Looney Tunes show.

Phantom Roxas Posted January 22, 2011 Report Share Posted January 22, 2011 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gCAX4cgszCU Yes, TOM didn't look as good in his final incarnation, but apparently Steven Blum admitted it was one of the hardest things he ever had to record. All I really watch on Adult Swim is Fullmetal Alchemist and Bleach, and even then all I do is record them. All that's on Cartoon Network for me is Sym-Bionic Titan, though I watch Ben 10: Ultimate Alien with my friends when they want to. As much as I hate the "They changed it now it sucks" perspective, I have to actually agree that it's very fitting given Cartoon Network and Nickelodeon's network decay. Cartoon Network needs to get rid of their live shows and people need to start realizing that shows like Chowder, Flapjack, and Adventure Time are just way too bizarre for their own good. Gendy was the brilliant mind behind a lot of the stuff during Cartoon Network's Golden Age, and yet all we have is Sym-Bionic Titan to stand out among them. Megas, Gendy, and Toonami. [i]That[/i] is what made Cartoon Network for me, and I miss it oh so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
