Cartoon Network Live-Action Block
 

Full details not yet revealed, though the rumoured line-up for CN's new Japanese action block consists of Ryukendo, Sazers, the all-new Kamen Rider Dragon Knight US series, and 1990s Fox Kids series Big Bad Beetleborgs.

While a part of me is interested in seeing some of these shows (particularly the new Kamen Rider and maybe some Beetleborgs reruns), I just don't want to see them on that network.

But oh well. Live action is nothing new on Cartoon Network...which is a shame.

Who decided we needed a revival of Big Bad Beetleborg?

NOOOO! All I recall from that piece of crap was Flabber who haunts my nightmares.

If Elvis was a child molester he would be Flabber.

I am going to cough up a lung now. It's that funny. Dammit. Disney okays Cartoon Network to rerun it, and Eek the cat is just on internet reruns? BBB was the worst one of their sentai type shows. The others at least had a charm to them. Blehhh!

But still, it doesn't matter if they run Ultraman, Kamen Rider, or whatever, live action on CN is WRONG!!!! And we can thank the tweenyboppers that make Hanna Montana and High School Musical to thank for it.

More like if Elvis and Jay Leno had a child molester of a love child, he would be Flabber.

God that picture disturbs me, he's starring into your soul. And it looks like he's grabbing Frankenstein's ass. Poor Frank looks like he doesn't know what to do.

The Flabber Pedo analogy is a scary one given he has...about fifty children dancing in this video. He even has an earlobe erection



Don't have nightmares people:)

Part of me has some odd want to watch that, to but the video doesn't work. Guess it got deleted.

It's still working when I click on it.

It's not really a priority anyway, it's the promotional video they did for the theme song. A longer version of it.

Big Bad Beetleborgs? If they're going to turn Cartoon Network into the next MTV (as in music in name only), why can't they do it with the American Masked Rider, which was still cheesy, but not nearly as bad as Beetleborgs? Or VR Troopers, which had Sarah Brown. :)

Masked Rider was abysmal. It had a great crossover with Power Rangers, but that was the only time it showed how "gritty" it could be.

Wow, I haven't seen Power Rangers in years. Jesus is it bad. Lord Zed has a pretty lame voice for how insanely cool he looks. I'm glad they cut that scene short, I don't want to imagine him and Rita Frenching.

Whilst it's far too easy to laugh at what there doing there, for what it was, and still is, this was pretty innovative stuff that they dont depend on much anymore (having Alpha's home planet resemble a warzone), it's all the Japanese footage now shot around any other footage.

Zedd DID become a complete pussy in season two. When he first arrived he had a darn snake crawling on his crotch that turned into his Z-Staff

Anyone else notice masked ride give the devil horns at 2:13?:lol:

Grrrr... especially that stupid little furry puppet thing that hung out around them. I could never really get into these shows, not really my thing, but that stupid furry guy ruined the show. Now, if they wanted to have a little furry puppet alien, they shoulda gave Paul Fusco a call and put ALF in that series.

I blame it all on Furbus. If they didn't have that thing, the show would have been more tolerable. I remember having a crush on that blonde girl that was on the show when I was a kid, the one that was the daughter of the fat guy Masked Rider lived with.

I remember Zedd being pretty badass when the Power Rangers came back for season 2. I mean he had his brain sticking out and it looked almost like the Power Rangers were going to be in deep crap. Didn't he end up becoming a wuss because Rita put a spell on him or something?

Yeah he did (and he was revealed as Jewish too), they started writing the series around them afterwards so it was like Married With Children with straight men beating them back every week
