Will the old toon/NM ever air again?

~~Jarrah White~~ · 01-10-2004, 12:50 PM

Well, will they?

*Stone Ill* · 01-10-2004, 01:08 PM

I'm not sure.. In my dream, I was watching Teletoon and it said that I should stay tuned for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles coming up next, and it was the old one.. It seemed so real, dammit!

~~Jarrah White~~ · 01-10-2004, 01:12 PM

I dreamed of the turtles too last night...

I really hope they show the cartoon on tv. So many people would watch it too.

Raphaella · 01-10-2004, 01:18 PM

They started showing the 1st movie over here in cinemas a few weeks back, uncut. I think it's gonna be likely that they might bring back the NM on here, but I'm not sure about the old cartoons.

**Karpo_007** · 01-10-2004, 02:08 PM

I heard that Hallmark owns the TV rights to the old show. Either no one is interested to buy them, or the price is so high they don't think it's worth it. Give it time, most old cartoons return to TV after a while.

*XERO* · 01-10-2004, 02:25 PM

I just hope it's not after I die.

Fox Kids in the UK started showing The Real Ghostbusters back in December, and given the fact they have shown TNM and are currently showing the new TMNT, I wouldn't be at all surprised if they started showing the old one.

Ohhh yeah. Did it seel well???

*PizzaPower* · 01-10-2004, 05:13 PM

Man I hope the old toon comes to the FoxBox

*ZariusTwo* · 01-10-2004, 05:17 PM

I suspect that Fox Kids U.K will air "Next Mutation" in their current midnight schedules sooner or later

MW8979 · 01-10-2004, 05:48 PM

Yeah, you just gotta give it some time, for those series to age significantly enough so that their price tag comes down. I mean, they're still original series that started it all. Just look at the G1 TFs. Same story - you'd think that a 20 year old series can be reaired now, but I'm pretty certain that it would cost too much even today to reair all of it. But I'm also pretty sure that if it did air, people would watch it again and TMNT too.

Not too sure on that one. It was only released in a select few cinemas but I expect anyone who went to see the movie was either:

- Huge TMNT fan
- Child who's been watching the new series and wasn't aware of the older incarnations

No doubt it was rereleased to cash in on the new series, but finally we got the uncut version

Michaelangelo|DAH · 01-10-2004, 06:34 PM

Well it's still cool that they've shown it in the cinemas again

spikealike · 01-10-2004, 06:41 PM

It is indeed, even if there were only 6 (including me and my brother) in the cinema when we went to see it

I'm hoping for a proper R2 dvd release now, with plenty of extras (there has to be some behind the scenes stuff lying about for them to use).

*Cascadia* · 01-10-2004, 07:45 PM

other than what was mentioned, I have not heard anything about bringing the old series or the live series back.

If Hallmark owns it, chances are they want too much

Savanti Romero · 01-10-2004, 10:56 PM

What else does Hallmark own? And is this Hallmark the same company with the cards and little trinket mall stores?

**GK Punk** · 01-10-2004, 11:03 PM

Yes it is, they also own The Filmation library. Stuff like Ghostbusters (Not the one based on the movie) masters of the universe (Classic) Fat Albert etc.

Savanti Romero · 01-10-2004, 11:12 PM

Oh, is the Ghostbusters that one cartoon with the new people? Like Ghostbuster Extreme or something. I was to young, and don't know much about the original Ghostbusters, but I like that cartoon with the students.
