Ok, its annoying enough that they rerun all 3 hours of their adult swim every night (for those of us who are night owls)... on election night I got tired of the pundits saying the same damn thing over and over, so I switched over to cartoon network... apparently they ran the same damn 15 minute episode of HarveyBirdman (attorney at law).. over, and over, and over, and over..I saw it at least 6 times in a 2 hour period, I think they must have ran it all night... it was a shitty episode too (he was defending a cartoon characters "right to bear arms"... which in this case was a guitar???)

My CN is broken. Everytime I go there it's just static. Same with all other channels 40+.

That's about the only thing I watch on CN in the daytime. I watch Adult Swim usually but as peasant said, it's nothing but reruns now.

Don't forget Super Chunk and the greatest show of them all, The Bugs and Daffy Show.

I saw the birdman thing. Except I went out to watch the election with my dad. When I came back in, it was the same thing.

Know what show REALLY sucks on Adult Swim? Home movies. It's such a sorry ass excuse for a show, it's not funny, the vioce acting sucks, and it looks like it was made with Flash version 1.

heh, i like Home movies. Who cares about the graphics, the show is funny. I get annoyed when they show baby blues tho. lol.

I like most all of the adult swim shows tho.. i guess im easily entertained.. even tolerate sealab, lol, which isnt one of my favorites...

heh, anyway, I enjoyed watching the Aqua teen marathon on Hollywood night 2-3 times over.. :o

Cartoon network is just trying to compete with Nickolodeon.

I remember a day when Nick was just plain funny. Now it's trying to appeal to teenagers by putting on crappy punk rock and some stupid shows about teens. Has anyone else noticed this?

"Pete and Pete," "Solute your Shorts," and "Are You Afraid of the Dark?" were the best shows on that channel, and they're all gone.

Meh, I probably wouldn't enjoy them any more now anyway.

But as for Cartoon Network, Adult swim is great- but not as good as it used to be. Frankly, I'd like to see Family Guy go away. It's a great show, but I prefer AS's originals, like Sealab 2021. (although, ATHF is starting to suck, and the Brak Show was never good. Plus, home movies was funny.)

I remember when they used to play pirates of dark water after school every day, but now it's on bommerang and that used to make me wake up early in the morining to watch, but now my card is shot :(

any cartoon channel that doesnt play Samurai Pizza Cats is unworthy.

you have to pay for cartoon network in oz. but you have to pay for all but the 5 or so free channels in oz. bloody yanks and your goddamn 200 channels or whatever you got. that must be sweet.

Home Movies rules. In a time when all sitcoms are using shock humour and obvious jokes, it's nice to see a show that just uses the way characters interact with each other to make people laugh.

I love that coach guy.

Here is what Cartoon Network needs to do.

1. Bring back Toonami instead of that stupid shit its airing now on weekdays

2. Stop airing DBGT as it is vomit worthy

3. Air Yu-yu-hakusho and Ruroni Kenshin during the Toonami block on weekdays

4. Air a lot of Aqua Teen whenever possible, the more the better

5. Air Mages XLR during weekday Toonami block

6. Get the rights to Evangelion or Escaflowne or something, two great animes can't hurt

7. Stop changing the timings of their shows on random, damn it, its annoying

8. On Saturday show movies or something, since most people are out then anyway.

9. On Sundays, well, have fun :D

And thats what CN needs to do.
7.

Here's what I want them to do..

Air

Slayers (the whole collection one after the other "I still own it all")
Ranms 1/2 (get rid of some of the reruns and start a long lasting finished series that's funnier than all of them combined..."I own all this too")
Record to Lodos Wars
Neo Genesis Evangelion (own)

This would give a good variety of new programs for adult swim. Slayers probably would do well as a Toonami title too.
