The Batman, Legion of Superheroes, others renewed

http://news.toonzone.net/article.php?ID=14832

According to a post at the Animation Guild weblog, several Warner Brothers animated shows have been greenlit for new seasons. On Cartoon Network, Ben 10, Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends, and Camp Lazlo have all been renewed, although the TAG blog states that Camp Lazlo may be facing its final season with this renewal.

On the Kids WB, Legion of Superheroes, The Batman, Shaggy and Scooby-Doo Get a Clue, and Tom and Jerry Tales are also getting new episodes.

Ugh, Fosters is a steaming pile of s*ite. The only amusing things lately were introducing Mac's hyperactive best friend and the "Good Wilt Hunting" movie that finally DEVELOPED a freaking main character, but that does'nt really make up for the various seasons that were'nt worth remotley anything. There's actually a VAST contrast in what the series began with, and later seasons where everybody just became moraless assholes except Mac and Haireman, no doubt due to the superior following that Billy and Mandy were getting with their darker humour and vindictive or depraved characters

Legion has done nothing to warrant a renewal, hell it's been pulled from transmission so many times, I think it's the story arcs that are demanding a second season more than viewers

The Batman on the other hand has earned the fifth season, it's fourth was the best and actually gave the show it's own identity, with tons of dark subject matter poured into it, things that were rarley even touched on by The New Batman Adventures made their way into it.

Tom and Jerry Tales getting renewed is great, especially since it also honours the memory of Joe Barbera, who spearheaded the revival of the characters with that series.

The Batman Renewed

http://jeffmatsuda.com/index.html#117181980754225450

Jeff's bowing out sadly, but Alan Burnette and a JL heavy new season sounds good enough for me.

I'm not a big enough fan of the show to search for every little detail on it.

So, wait, does this mean a total style change? And yay, the JLA guest star thing isn't a wiki rumour anymore!

There may be some liberties, but I doubt they'll abandon the style, kind of like how "Mystery of the Batwoman" had little input from Bruce Timm (even if it showed in story quality)

Newbern is back as Superman, and Brown's voicing someone other than Mr. Freeze next season.

That's great news. He brings this nice threatining edge to Freeze's voice, which is how they want to play it, but he can do a lot better.


And according to Lang, he really will.

How these got renewed is beyond me. Everything Kids WB! has is pure $hit except for Loonatics--although I can understand why some people wouldn't like it. But I for one, do!

Well, the fact you like Loonatics is proof enough you should'nt be posting in threads about shows you hate, you're only asking sensible people to do the same with any you make

Eh, the only thing I like about Loonitics is the bad guys. Great designs and power...sort of a shame that they are on Loonitics...

And YES! The Batman strikes again! I can't wait to see where they go with the fifth season. Season four has been great from what I have seen, and I just loved Robin's introduction episode. They even looked at the subject of death, which is very rare in a cartoon now-days. Now, if only they get an episode where Harley cuts Joker's hair, and Joker starts becoming a bit more classy...I would REALLY be happy then *sits down and waits to see if "The Batman" writers see her coment*

... ...

It's not going to happen, isn't it?

What?! It's true!

Tom and Jerry Tales?! We're too old for that and it's either just the same stuff or not as good as the old (more the second). I just can't stand it anymore now that I'm older.
Shaggy and Scooby-Doo?! BULL****!!!!! Nothing original or exciting happens!
The Batman gets a fifth season?! This has no right to last longer than Batman TAS!!!!
Legion of Superheroes?! Another attempt at the Teen Titans with not as good storylines, action, and they just used Superman to attract people! No thanks! Bad series for him!
Johnny Test? Been there done that! It's much more kiddish anyway!
Monster Allergy? No thanks!

Kids WB! had good stuff like Jackie Chan Adventures, old-school Pokemon, all that good stuff that tuned me in all morning. Now they're just a bunch of god damn losers!

I watched a couple episodes of the batman on CW11 or the new WB and they had an episode wheere this cloak guy kidnapped the criminals and tehre was another where Mr. freeze took over gotham.

Both were excellent episodes.

you agree?

How come? Just curious, but why doesn't a new show have no right to last longer than the old one? It's like saying the new TMNT show can not have more episodes than the old TMNT cartoon. It's just stupid.

The Batman is making leaps in terms of improvement. Watch the entire series from start to it's latest episode, and you can tell that the show is improving. Batman is shown to be getting older, and I love how some things such as death and the state of the human mind are looked upon. Just look at "Strange Minds" and "Strange New World". They look very closely at the state of the human mind and psychology. Would things such as "Camp Lazlo" look at that? Hell no! This show is going places, and I for one am happy for it.

Too bad I haven't been watching the Batman...

It is slowly forging it's own really cool continuity and I hope that something really cool becomes of that.
