Cartoon Network is t3h s uck

(Paradigm City is down, so I get to Rant here)

Tonight was to be the final episode of Big O, but instead what do we get? ACT 20 AGAIN. All week of waiting and anticipating the final Act, and we get screwed out of it.

So to you Cartoon Network, I say Bite Me.

I've been telling them to bite me ever since I saw the japanese Gundam Wing, and heard of the editing jobs the shows go through to make air. If they can't be shown the way they were ment, they shoulden't be playing them at all.

If I remember right, they did the same with DBZ a few times, where they'd leave a saga unfinished, and then 4 months later they'd play the episode..... then restart the entire show again... and again.

Yeah I think I'm over CN.

And for some Reason, they can't even air the Final Season of Sailor Moon either, yet Canada and Australia will be getting it.

are the outer senshi in it? if theres too much 'inapropriet content' they won't show it.

hell, they changed Bras name for DBZ GT. CN just sucks. 'sides there are other ways to get the anime, and you don't have to wait for them to air it then.

I disagree with that very, very strongly. Movies need to be edited for time and content to be put on TV. You still have access to buying the video if you want to see them uncut.

By your logic we'd only get the sugeriest family movies on TV. And THAT would be "t3h s uck"

I really can't feel any sympathy for anyone who doesn't like Cartoon Network. All of us animation fans here in Canada are in constant pain without it. Be happy for what you got.

Sayonara.

Eh, I don't mind Cut Series so much but considering the shows they choose to air generally suck with few exceptions, Cartoon Network DOES suck now days.

As For Sailor Stars, the Outer Senshi are at the beginging, And End of the series. But then there's the Male Pop Stars that become female Senshi, and Sailor Moon is "Nude" During the last battle. (A little computer editing could fix that right up)

Oh Ninjatron seeing as how you don't have CN, "t3h s uck" Is something they say on Adult Swim during their bumpers to make fun of their message board users.

*shrug* there are other anime out there that don't have to be edited to be put on air, or can be shown on their Adult Swim block. I'll be the first to admit that I am being selfish in saying that I don't care what stations do to what other people watch, but I'd rather they don't mess with something that already has a very large fan base to the extent of creating two diffrent versions (see Gundam Wing. the fan base is about 80% diffrent from the fanbase that got added from CN).

You have the internet in Canada too, and while we can't say any specifics, you can get your animation fix that way.

I stand by my ideal that if CN has to slaughter certain shows to get them to meet standards, they shoulden't play them. yes, a little editing is needed to make some jokes make sense to the averge viewer, but CN has changed charcters genders, rewrote complete scenes, or removed complete episodes from a series. anyway, i won't say anymore on the subject.

I'll admit, I can't stand watching the English adaption of Sailor Moon at all.
The editing that happened to that series was just lame, and unnecessary alot of the time.

And Uransu and Neptune became cousins.

Cousins.

I agree. Im especially disapointed how they acted with the He-man and Justice League. We are lucky the TMNT isn't airing on CN, we might have to wait almost 2 years for new season to start...

what about saint seiya (knights of the zodiac) in japan and latin america were so bloody they could make a punk cry, no talk about the first season when they go back with the phoenix torture, i heard the edition in US was so bad they made it shorter and for pree-schoolers (well thats a lil' exagerated )

They play that Knights show here in Canada on YTV. Complete with a "I Ran" cover for the theme by some band I don't know. Just so you know the worst show on YTV (material wise, swearing etc.) is the new Spider-Man cartoon. That tells you how badly edited that Zodiac show must be.

Knights has been edited to hell then, because there's NO blood what so ever (maybe a cut here or there, but nothing major). I might have to find that series and watch it. It looks pretty good.

Ok if your refering to the fact that JL season 2 was held back so long there is logic to there desision. They wanted to wait till all the eps were done. Since they choose to waitt ill all teh eps were completed we get the back to back eps that kick shell as apposed to waiting a week between shows

And while I am mad they didn't show Big O ending I am glad about the fact they are showing th family guy ep that was banned

I've been waiting a long time to see this ep

Optimus Prime the Jew has finally arrived!

They also did those several month long breaks in He-man. Their policies make a lot of people angry.

well considering every few months they announce that the MOTU toy line has been cancelled it makes sence to hold back on the eps if they don't have anything to tie in to it and make money with

It was a glitch, they were going to show the last epp but something happened. They issued and apology over at the toonzone message board.
We don't have any room to diss CN, they are the ones who ordered a second season of Big O in the first place. If they never got the show we would have been left at that cliffhanger in eppisode 13 forever.

PS-Adult Swim is one of the only good things on TV, so many of my favorite TV shows are from this block of programing. When the makers of Space Ghost Coast to Coats gained controll of a block of programming I knew it was going to be special.

BTW Toonami is teh s uck

You know it's funny, I don't like CN But when I say it, I'm told I"m not allowed to Dislike CN. Hrm, funny I thought I was allowed to not like the channel.

And actually, The Big O's second season aired in japan already, so yeah we would have had a second season, even if it meant Fan Subs.

Ah forget Cartoon Network. *hugs Japanese Sailor Stars DVD's*
I'll just wait for it to get released on US DVD.....someday.....
Cartoon Network would have ruined TMNT had it been on that network. The fans would have all been grandparents by the time it started the second half of season 1. It's a good thing the series is on Network TV. I wouldn't mind reruns on Cartoon Network, but that's doubtful.
