Proving that CN's bigwigs are all a bunch of idiots and instead of making toonami better they decide to give it the big ugly axe. Now adult swim will be handling all the good shows. Not that toonami has had a lot of good shows lately. seriously, Naruto's okay but that's really all toonami's been. They could've aired samurai jack and ben 10 any other day.

I agree. I just hope they don't mess up adult swim.

Well, AS is getting better since they got rid of saul of the molemen, tom goes to the mayor, and super milk chan. They still have that poopy 'tim and eric' show and squidbillies though...

I loved when Toonami was first hosted by Moltar, then we get tom who is super cool. Who else got into the whole alien-thing attacking and killing tom. I remember i was like "holy sh*t on a cracker!" Then he gets that slick new body and things were cool. Then CN decides to make him more kiddie and less badass....what a shame.

That wasn't it's only problem. "Prince of Tennis?" "Yu-Gi-Oh GX?" That freak with the blonde afro (Bobobobobo)? Give me a break.

personally i think if AS doesn't get rid of the live-action crap they are currently airing then they will be next on the cutting block.

Seriously...i would prefer the constant repeats of cowboy bebop/trigun/NGE (or any other anime, actually) over that crap any day

I missed the final airing thakns to Ike taking out the digital cable reciever at the local Time Warner place.

I miss it already. It was the only reason I watched the channel and it was the only thing good. When they dumped it to Saturday's I knew it was done for. It was like having DBZ on demand. lol.

Rot in hell CN, you only redeeming block is dead...

Now if only they could dump those brats on that dynamite action thingie.....

by **Grendel** » Tue Sep 23, 2008 2:21 pm

aside from AS, CN as a whole has been going downhill for years, I used to watch it all the time back when toonami was good, gundam and macross were part of it, and Tom was a badass, and CN also used to air reruns of thundercats, and old 80's TF.
now it's all crap shows like johnny test.
only shows i really watch anymore are ben 10, flapjack(it's just a really bizzare cartoon) and occasionally transformers animated (but those episodes are hit and miss for me, some are good, some suck)

AS is getting better now that most the live action crap is gone, hopefully tim and eric will be the next to go

by **OptimusN1701** » Tue Sep 23, 2008 4:16 pm

Unfortunately Tim and eric my be around for a while since stoners seem to love that show (no offense to anyone here)

CN has definitely gone downhill. When Billy and Mandy ended was when I stopped caring about CN. Especially since their last technical episode was a crossover with the kids next door

None taken as I f***ing hate that show, it's so retarded, I miss Harvey Birdman.

by **StryderPrime** » Wed Sep 24, 2008 1:02 am

I miss Johnny Quest that was on there even tho the Harvey Birdman ep of the Quest family was funny as hell.

Lately it seen that all the show on CN have been dumb down when it comes 2 action and now more on crude funny jokes(which I dont mind at times) and lame as kids show.

I miss Toonami when it came on on Saturaday for us action folks and AS on sundays for the comedy relief. I even miss it more when it came on 6 days of week but i guess the times are changing or sumthing

by **Doubledealer93** » Wed Sep 24, 2008 9:05 pm

i remember when dragon ball z was on there and gundam seed and wing gundam i loved those shows but now dbz is all talk no action they spend like 75% of the show talking to the guy they are suppose to be killing they might as well ask em to see movie then watch one. but bobobo was ok. it had its funny moments

Adult Swim will never die.

Because retarded fanboys eat up all the crap Adult Swim puts out like it was gold.

Thats why Squidbillies is still on the air. Along with all the Tim & Eric crap, Fat Guy Stuck In Internet, Saul of the Mole Men, and whatever else crap that still gets new episodes that isn't Robot Chicken and Venture Brothers.

That was Toonami? I had always watched Fox Kids for Beast Wars and Beast Machines. I'm not sure how that works out.

Prince of Tennis....ehh...it's apparently got some popularity, just not my thing. Now Megas XLR...We dig Giant Robots.

I was there for the start of toonami and what killed it for me was the stupid ninja in orange track suit naruto thank you for that one cartoon network. Also has anyone notice that adult swim on saturday nights is becoming pretty anima thin as well.

I liked Naruto the first time I saw it..... when it was called Dragonball Z

Am I one of the few that actually find Squidbillies funny? Yeah, the animation sucks, but I enjoy it.

I also support removing all live action shows from AS though. I find Tim and Eric annoying and poorly done. To me, they are just SNL rejects.

It would be nice if they re-ran a different anime during the week rather than Inuyasha at 4 am too.

before being syndicated on fox, beastwars was on wb kids from 96-99. except for the final 5 episodes of season 2, which aired on toonami.

and yes, we all dig giant robots......nice

I actually kind of like Squidbillies. I admit that.

As for Tim and Eric, they're not even SNL rejects, they're not even MadTV rejects. They're kind of like the show Kids in the Hall, (Also from Lorne Michaels) except Tim and Eric sucks.
