Won't deny that Cartoon Network has had ups and downs, but unless they start showing reality tv, I won't say they suck.

Response to cartoon network sucks 2014-12-17 21:30:24


The shows on Cartoon Network don't suck. The problem with CN is that they have a shit motto and a fraction of the shows that they used to.
On top of that, shows are now 11 minutes vs. the old half hours so everything takes half as long to complete.

Thank god they stopped airing Johnny Test though.

Cartoon Network used to be a lot better, their quality has decreased in the last couple of years, but its ok. Its not Nickelodeon bad, but it could be a lot better.
The best place for Cartoon shows was definitely Kids WB, though. They had the best stuff ever, I mean, Batman The Animated Series, Justice League Unlimited, Jackie Chan Adventures, Pinky and the Brain, Animaniacs, and all that good stuff.

And I like Adventure Time.

I thought Kids WB was cancelled though. Or am I confusing that with Vortexx? Damnit, gonna have to go look it up now.

It seems like too often I turn it on and see Gumball or Teen Titans Go. While Gumball is good and I don't hate TTG, I would rather see more variety at those times. Adventure Time is the best but I have trouble finding it.

Also, [adult swim] takes up a lot of time late. One of these days, they will need to break off and become a separate channel.

Adventure Time's pretty good, but I get sick of the "AWESOME ALL CAPS" tone of the show. Not a big fan of The Regular Show. Can't rightly say I know what else is on.

Yeah, sadly it was cancelled. It really was the best place to go for quality cartoons, though. I wish it were still here today...

Nah, Adventure Time is good. So is Gumball. Steven Universe and Clarence seem alright. I caught a Midnight Cowboy reference on Clarence. That sure was something. lol

flicks does suck, and that we can agree on

Response to cartoon network sucks 2014-12-18 02:04:20


Really, why do you think that? What shows do you like to watch?

Frankly, CN is the best network for...well, Cartoons right now. They have the majority of the best shows including Adventure Time, Regular Show, Steven Universe (a new one but different, beautifully animated, pretty funny and can be very heart warming), TAWoG and Clarence (it has a certain nostalgia to it for kid days of ole).

I will never like TTG (Its like watching somebody kill your Dog, gut it and wear its skin as they act like an obnoxious asshole who thinks they're funny) as well as Uncle Grandpa (it swings and misses so bad I change it before the first act is out) but those are about the only shows on that network I say I hate that they show frequently now.

Other networks have some Ok to very Awesome shows like Disney has Gravity Falls and Phineas & Ferb, while Nick has Legends of Korra and... (well Nick sucks balls but you get it) But CN is the only network that has a handful of great shows all in one place.

On top of their current line up, Boomerang still airs Samurai Jack, Dexter, PPG and Johnny Bravo (though someone should petition EEn'E to be on there, its one of CN's very best) so I watch that sometimes. They also have Rick & Morty, by far the best new animated series on AS in the longest time and Toonami gets your regular dosage of Anime. (maybe not enough for hardcore Anime fans but I enjoy it) So in short, I think CN is in a great spot and will continue improving as they shake off 2009 for good and move into the future. That's not to say they don't have flaws, some of their stuff is lurid and they make odd programming choices but I think overall, they're in a better spot than most and I only hope they don't rest on their laurels.

Nah, not really. That's just nostalgia impairing your judgment. The shows they have aren't actually bad.

Adventure Time is of course great, Regular Show is also very good and has humor for both kids, teens and adults, Gumball is more kid oriented but still great, Teen Titans Go! is a funny spin on the Teen Titans series (even though it plays WAY too much on the channel), and I've heard Steven Universe is a great show even though I just haven't been able to fully watch it. I don't care for Clarence but I can see why people like it, I just don't.

In fact, I think the only thing really bad on the channel is Uncle Grandpa (but then again I haven't fully watched it, the trailers just make me severely annoyed).

So yeah, I think the only problem in the channel now is less variety, but luckily, Adult Swim has been saving their ass by splitting air time with them. I still like Cartoon Network and I feel that older people really aren't giving the new shows a chance. Like people have said before, it's certainly doing a much better job than the other channels in keeping high quality content around.

Cartoon Network would be alright, but they have a bunch of sketchy crook animators that always sneak in sexual innuendo and drug references, poisoning our youths minds.

It's been getting worse over the recent years.

I do what I want and it's been made apparently clear that no one cares.
Also it's technically safe because there's nothing explicit in the sig window.

I know Adventure Time is the big hitter on CN but Gumball and Clarence are actually pretty good. These shows deserve a fair chance if you haven't given them one before.

I'm biased to my generation of Cartoon Network...I will say, I enjoy what I watch from Adventure Time....its weird as fuck, from what I've seen, but I'm entertained.

I think I remember cat-sitting for my Aunt and Uncle at one point and I flipped it on out of boredom.

What the hell happened to Teen Titans?

What the fuck is Uncle Grandpa?

There was another one, but I think I was really distracted by the mindrot of Uncle Grandpa...and those commercials.....it really reminds me that I'm not the right age-group for this network anymore.

I've moved on...and you should too.
