I REALLY hate nickelodeon...
 
Okay, so imagine you're favorite indie comic book was going to be made in to an animated series by nickelodeon.. okay, now imagine you have to wait several years for any news on it... alright, now let's say they finally tell you that it will debut in october of 2003... alright, now let's say they CANCELL the series, WITH OUT AIRING A SINGLE EPISODE!!!!

I really hate Nickelodeon for doing that to skeleton key... I am going to add several anti-nick banners to my skeleton key site...

That Matt Guy 03-27-2003 02:32 AM

Yeah; Nickelodeon blows. My beef with them is that they don't show any Ren & Stimpy or Rocko's Modern Life episodes anymore.

Preach it, they don't show anything good anymore it seems... I know Rocko is on the Nicktoons TV channel, and so is Ren and Stimpy, but like no one has that channel. very few people get to see them... atleast TNN will be airing NEW Ren and Stimpy episodes.. thank god for them...

Duke 03-27-2003 02:35 AM

Yeah, Nickelodeon used to be cool but in the last couple of years they have really fallen apart. I mean what ever happened to their classic shows like you can't do that on television.

One Radical Dude 03-27-2003 04:33 AM

Nickelodeon isn't the same anymore. I remember the good ol days. Things do change, though.

Actually, Rocko's Modern Life was seen a few times recently from Nickelodeon's U-Pick.

GK Punk 03-27-2003 04:48 AM

I could use some advice.. check out my webpage here, http://kittie.onlinecomics.biz/skdb and then check out my "redesign" at http://kittie.onlinecomics.biz/skdb/...y_database.htm

And help me decide which I should go with... I am leaning towards the non frames version

The Defibrillator 03-27-2003 10:40 AM

what show are you talking about, Grunger?

and yeah I'd hafta agree with all of ya about Nickelodeon. It really sucks now. that is, it sucks 'cept fer good ol spongebob. spongebob is the only good Nick show now.

*shakes his fists at the dudes at Nickelodeon*

Nturtle 03-27-2003 10:50 AM

I never really liked Nick, and I'm starting to hate Cartoon Network!!!
1.CN is part of Aol Time Warner, the most evil buisness monopoly in the universe
2.CN practically canceled Dragonball, in my opinion the best show they had
3.CN is about to and will cancel Dragonball Z, another one of their best shows
4.The are replacing DBZ with Zoids of all things :dead:

These guys who run the cartoon channels need a good kick in the toot!!!! :evil:

No, they just put it on weekly so that the episodes would last longer.

No they're not. DBZ is almost over and after they finish showing the new episodes they'll rerun them for a couple of months and then start airing DBGT.

Again, they're not going to replace they're most popular show.

You have a Skeleton Key site? That is sooo cool. I've only read the first trade and didn't reallly like it but it seemed to have potential, besides I love Andi Watson.

In my humble opinion I think that CN should play all the "comedy" and "cartoony" shows like johnny bravo, Ed, Edd, and Eddy, etc etc. I also think they should make a new Cartoon Network2 channel, to play all of the toonami shows. Toonami and cartoon cartoon don't mix very well...

Bah! Cartoons is cartoons.

The Defibrillator 03-27-2003 12:08 PM

are you kidding me? Dragonball and Johnny Bravo are like oil and water!! the only thing they have in common is big hair!

Nturtle 03-27-2003 12:20 PM

No they are going to cancel DBZ beleve it or not, you can look at the schedule on cartoonnetwork.com, they cancel it by somethime in May apparently.
I like some of CN's funny cartoons, but its annoying what they're doing now.
Yeah the didn't cancel DB, mistake on my part :goofygri:

Isn't the story of DBZ ending? The series is almost 20 years old, and it only had so many episodes.

TekCop: Yeah, I have an SK website... I started building it awhile back but held off on finishing it untill I heard some news on the Animation, which unfortunetly I got. The series really does get better after the first GN, you just gotta stick with it!

Doesn't mean they're canceling it. The series ends after the Buu saga and it should be complete finished by May. I guess they're going to show Zoids instead or DBZ reruns. DBGT'll probably start airing Fall 2003.

Nturtle 03-27-2003 12:33 PM

Yeah and since the story is ending they won't be showing it, or any reruns so it has been preety much canceled.
Yeah and I guess they will have GT, bu I can't say I like GT at all :dead:

i'm not a huge dbz fan, but i love cartoon network. i think they do an amazing job with their programs. my biggeast arguement is they don't show batman the animated series anymore. i love that show.


but they sindicated two of my all time favorite shows home movies and samurai jack. i also love futurama

Shellfox 03-27-2003 01:37 PM

Ok I'm a bit lite, but HOW THE HELL DID THEY GET BRUCE WILLIS IN THE RUGRATS MOVIE? Come on it's Bruce Willis and they make him the voice of the damn dog. I'll grany you merging Rugrats and Wild Thorberrys into one movie is a interesting idea but to do that to Mr Willis is just wrong.
That and the 5 new shows they are adding from the basic over view http://forums.toonzone.net/showthrea...threadid=71122 appears to suck more than anything else (do we really need a second Rat toon)
And where is ZIM I loved Zim that was one of the best shows they had
Well at least they still have Fairly Odd Parents one of they few good shos, and I have caught a few eps of Real monsters and Rocko at odd times on Nick over the last few months.

As for CN, I'm getting really tired of them showing Ziods and never finishing it, play the whole saga through for once with out removing it for reason I can only guess at. And put the Swat Kats back on the air that was one of the veiw really good action shows HB ever did

Swat Kats was pretty good

That Matt Guy 03-27-2003 08:24 PM

I don't think Cartoon Network has ever been that good; when I first got that channel it seems the only shows that ever aired were Johnny Quest and Josie and Pussycats :dead: Then they replaced most of that with anime and junk like Courage The Cowardly Dog :dead:

Mr. Snackpants 03-27-2003 08:25 PM

Have you guys ever heard of TCM(Turner Classic Movies). I think they should have a channel like that but with cartoons. They dont have to be old old, but old cartoons that never are on anymore. Good 'ol classic toons, not like the *hit they have on nowadays.

That Matt Guy 03-27-2003 08:30 PM

Another thing I hate is when PC channels like Cartoon Network cut clips out of classic toons from the 30s and 40s. And they only do that in the US, most other countries don't give a crap.

Greed 03-27-2003 08:42 PM

1. I think Toonami deserves there own channel
2. Nick does suck but Nick Toon is the place for the older better shows Ren & Stimpy, Rocko adn others
3. DBZ needs to be taken off air it is so friggin' boring

Thats it for know

Shellfox 03-27-2003 08:49 PM

I still can't believe they outlawed Speedy Gonzalis last year, so he was a stereo type it was a toon, at least they finally put him back on.

And as bad as CN may be Toon Disney is worse, they censor their shows to death, altering or removing eps altogether. Off the top of my head I know TD has removed a Gargoyals (can't spell) and Darkwing Duck for reasons that are crap. You could show the eps like 10 years ago but can't today what the blazing slag? I'd understand if it was a show they got from some place else, but their the ones who made it and they can't show it! Whats happend in the last 5-8 years? How has the world changed, so that what I watched is inapproprete for kids now?

TMNT is cooler than MOTU 03-27-2003 10:38 PM

Oldschool nick (back when they had Double Dare, Are You Afriad of the Dark?, Roundhouse, Hey Dude, the Tomorrow People, Welcome Freshman and all of those great shows) owned CN's ass!!!

Shellfox 03-28-2003 06:54 AM

Whats the Tomorrow People? I kinda-sorta rember it but nothing specific.
And the first seaon of Freashmen was good, the second kinda sucked for me

J Legault 03-28-2003 09:17 AM

I'd agree with most of you. Nick has got rad of so many shows
Ren & Stimpy, Real Monsters, Rocko, WiennerVille, KABLAM, Angry Beavers, etc. Cartoon Network: I only watch ED,EDD,EDDY since there are few shows I like to see like Space Ghost Coast to Coast, man i wish I'm able to see that show again :cry:

Wow! Somebody who cares! I hate how I always here people complain about how seconds of the latest anime were cut out becuase of things like cursing nudity, but you never hear anybody say anything about how much CN edits much more stuff out of shows like Toon Heads and Acme Hour.

Tokka-B 03-28-2003 02:05 PM

I liked oldschool nick, but I don't know why you all are complaining about Nick when you can get the shows you wanted like double dare and ren and stimpy when you want, you just need to know the right channels, duh.I hate new nick but that doesn't stop me from watching the old shows, it is pointless to argue to bring them back when you can get them on their own channels... :roll: :roll: :roll:

Anyway, no surprise they are cancelling dbz, it has such bad sentiment I am surprised it ever got herein the U.S, I say just keep those crappy shows like pokemon, digimon, and dbz back in Japan instead of making American compaines go bankrupt over this load of crap. :roll:

cqb101 03-28-2003 02:19 PM

I'm glad they're cancelling DBZ it sux. It gives a bad name to anime......Because most people see DBZ and because it has almost no storyline and the same thing happens in every episode they think all anime is like that and it isn't.


Anyway Rocko's modern life used to be my favorite show and when I saw an episode around Xmas I loved it just as much......I want them to bring it back!

Yeah the one with the Vaccum Cleaner is classic.

cqb101 03-28-2003 04:21 PM

I love that one!

Shellfox 03-28-2003 04:26 PM

It's me Really Really Big Man, stare into my cheast hair of the future! (or were those my nipples of the future? I know they sttached to Rockos eyes I just can't rember why)

ChibiKasai 03-28-2003 04:30 PM

Alot of channels were better "back in the day"

Nickelodeon was great in the early/mid 90's: Welcome Freshmen, Salute Your Shorts, Space Cases, Rocko... those were great. Luckily, NOGGIN still plays Pete & Pete on a daily basis.

Cartoon Network: I actually liked CN back when they showed all those shows from the seventies. But the only shows I really miss from back then are 2 Stupid Dogs, and Swat Kats. Man, I miss Swat Kats. :(

Don't get me started on MTV...

Mr. Shellfox should I clear your brain as I've seen all the episodes.
1.Chest Hairs of present
2.Abs of the past
3.Nipples of the Future.

So the next time your in O-Town. Burn BigHead's Salmon Bushes. :evilgrin:

People would be surprised if they knew how much was cut out of classic cartoons.
