We have announced many of the shows that will make up the bulk of this programming, including Chaotic, a new Yu-Gi-Oh! animated series entitled “Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D’s,” Dinosaur King, GOGORiKi, and Viva Piñata, with new shows “Kamen Rider - Dragon Knight”, “Huntik” and “RollBots” scheduled to join the lineup in the first quarter of 2009."

What about Biker Mice From Mars? Are they done with it already?

Wouldn't think so, since it just started. But... maybe it's a 'place holder' (as the second Biker Mice series is rather short), and another show will be taking the spot after it's run.

Biker Mice is just timeslot filler, it was a quickie acquisition to begin with.

Also, apparently there's still going to be a slot or two of TMNT reruns on 4Kids TV in the fall, and by the sounds of it (this wasn't made clear though) there may be one slot for the original and one for Fast Forward.

My senitments exactly. i like the new Biker Mice, we got 2 years of wating to finally get it on TV, and they treat it as a time filler? There's no where else to put it, due to the lack of Saturday AM and Syndicated afternoon slots.

The only good is we got confirmation on BTTS and where it will air. I know it's hard running 2 networks and all, but they could have at least tried harder with the 4Kids line up, instead of smacking old reruns. At least finish of the Biker Mice.

^ Yeah, another aspect that isn't too bright is the 'hour' showings (like 4Kids has of TMNT, and had of Viva Pinata; as well as CW4Kids has of Tom & Jerry Tales and now Chaotic, and had of Spectacular Spider-Man).

Could use the other half-hour for another show, etc.

All i'm saying... someone HAS to get the Biker Mice series on DVD in the US... I'm really liking what I've seen so far.

I'm hugely disappointed they gave it the "afterthought" 8:30 slot. Boy, kids sure are lazy these days. I woke up at 7 to see cartoons when I was younger. Sometimes even 6, so I could catch Little Rascals.

Ex-SCUSE me, but just where THE SHELL did you get THIS idea?! I happen to have it on VERY good authority that this is NOT the case!

What "good authority", you might ask? THIS good authority!:

You heard it here first - the new series will air on 4KidsTV (FOX) in The USA at 10.30 on Saturday mornings this fall.

The series will also launch in many more Territories including Italy where RAI will air the series.

We hope to make announcements about several more territories very soon.


Also:

4Kids on FOX will launch a 4 Ep preview beginning August 9 at 8.30a.

The official series launch is September 13.

Be prepared to Rock N' Ride


(AS you can see, the BMFM ep that YOU'RE talking about are a PREVIEW of the new series, NOT "timeslot filler", as you called them.)

This is from Criterion, who is OFFICIALLY connected to the series, and it was posted both over at Red Planet, the OFFICIAL forums of the OFFICIAL BMFM 2008 website (http://www.bikermice.tv/), AND at Kishikat "The Station" (http://www.kishikat.com/thestation/index.php). Here are the thread links for BOTH forums:

First, Red Planet's:
http://www.bmfm-redplanet.net/?q=node/2312

Now, The Station's:
http://www.kishikat.com/thestation/v....php?f=8&t=826

You can scroll down to find them.

And this is OFFICIAL news fro both the OFFICIAL forum, AND one connected to it, so I don't want anyone to say that THIS Mouse doesn't know what the shell she's TALKING about!

Oyh, and you doubting Thomases (the ones that there are around here) can check this out as well:

http://www.bikermice.tv/

It's the MAIN page for the OFFICIAL Biker Mice From Mars 2008 website, and has a a screencap of the the different series' schedules ON it. Just scroll down past the trailer for Episode 2.

Okay, I'm done now. Didn't mean to come off as hostile (IF I did, I most sincerely apologize), but I've been following this over in the BMFM forums (ESPECIALLY on Red Planet AND The Station) for awhile now, so I'd like to think that I have a bit of a better angle on it.

Oh, btw, I found THIS over at The Station, posted by Criterion on Thu Jul 31, 2008:

Compliance is down to the broadcaster, in this case FOX. FOX has to adhere to the requirements of the US (FCC) regulator .

Some edited changes will occur that make the show slightly softer than the European version - which is the opposite of what happened with Series 1.

4Kids on FOX and http://www.4kids.tv is a fantastic US home for the series. This series is a great modern take on a Saturday morning classic

As for alternative channels in The USA, it was never going to be a Nick show, and CN is going through changes, & in any case with CN it would be problematic stripping the show with only 28 completed Eps.

We are very happy where we are, & the series looks great versus the limited animation of the other new series for 2008.


Now if THIS ISN'T official, I don't know what is!

I have cable TV now. I used to be able to just play DVDs in my previous place. So I can now watch BTTS- especially if it is at 10:30, which gives me time to come back home from Body Combat. SWEET!!!

Okay, I understand.

I was going by the lack of prior promotion on 4Kids TV (mind you they've done that for basically any series except Chaotic), historically poor 8:30 timeslot and complete lack of mention of the property during the 4Kids conference call, so you can see why I, an outsider, would think that way. It seemed like it just came out of nowhere. But I see your point.

Fair enough?

Besides, mumbo230 understands what I was trying to say, and that's what I was aiming for, anyway, NOT to get chewed out for explaining things.

Okay? Okay.

CN sucks. Buncha idiots ruining the ntwork. Not only is 4Kids the best choice, it's the ONLY choice. I just hope it isn't on opposite TMNT... I don't wanna have to start buying videotapes again, like with Spider-man.

Well, first will just note I still like some shows on CN.

And, I still get blank tapes. To record shows, incase they don't get put out on DVD (which has been the case for some I taped years back).

I repeat, I AM chilled! I don't know WHAT your problem IS with me on this, but as far as I'M concerned, it's over. I apologized to mumbo, and that's enough.

Seriously, I've been Warned ONCE here, and I REALLY DON'T want a repeat of that. So can we just call this done, and let it go? I wish that we could, because I have absolutely NO quarrel with you, or anyone ELSE around here. What happened the other day when I posted that was the culmination of a VERY bad day on my part, and I took it out on the wrong person. Mumbo is cool with my apology, and that's good enough for me.

That said, I'M dropping this and moving on with the the discussion of this thread. Cool? Okay.

Thank you, mumbo. That's all that I needed to hear. *hugz appreciatively*

Starting September 13th you will be seeing TMNT: Back to the Sewer.

The CW:
7a Will & Dewitt
730a Magi Nation
8a Skunk Fu!
830a Viva Pinata
9a The Spectacular Spider-Man
930a TMNT Back to the Sewers (New Series)
10a Dinosaur King
1030a YGO 5D’s (New Series)
11a Chaotic
1130a Chaotic

4Kids (Fox in most cases)
8a Di-gata Defenders
830a Biker Mice

930a Sonic X
10a Chaotic (New episodes and new look: preview)

We will have property pages and content for everything above including Spider-man on 4Kids.tv sometime in the near future.

The Biker Mice is a new series (kind of like 88 TMNT versus 2k3 TMNT).

The new season of Chaotic sports a new look courtesy of Dong Woo animation (who also does TMNT for us). Click the preview above for a peak.

Remember things can change at any time for a number of reason but this is the most up-to-date info.

The Biker Mice series is a direct continuation of the original series, with most of the original voice actors reprising their roles, it's also set a few years later with new enemies, though that doesnt mean we won't see Limburger and the remaining Plutarkians later in the season
