Dragon Ball, Naruto, Avatar: TLA, and Demon Slayer are pretty good action cartoons but One Piece and Fairy Tail are even better. One Piece and Fairy Tail have more fantastical themes and better more interesting worldbuilding and overall are great animated alternatives to Pirates of the Caribbean...

The weird designs of PearPhones in Dan Schneider’s shows. They are said to be shaped like pears but alternatively they could also be shaped like feet without the toes.

I miss Close Enough but Regular Show has been one of my favorite Cartoon Network shows. I get that it had the perfect ending but I’m interested as JG Quintel is returning. I would like it to take place during the 25 year timeskip shown during the ending that shows Mordecai and Rigby after their...

Sound like it’ll be an Indian lore themed movie. Really interesting, hopefully it doesn’t get written off like Driftwood was.

I used to be all about comedies movies and shows including crude/sadist comedies and pretty much any kind of short form comedy. Stuff like Family Guy, Catdog, Robot Chicken and Dan Schneider’s kidcoms. These types of shows have largely fallen out of my favor as now I crave action-adventure...

The WB/CW’s Saturday Lineup over the years. WB Saturday lineup in September 1995 (Kids WB launch): 8:00 AM Animaniacs 8:30 AM Sylvester and Tweety Mysteries 9:00 AM Animaniacs 9:30 AM Pinky and the Brain 10:00 AM Freakazoid! 10:30 AM Earthworm Jim WB Saturday lineup in September 2004 (Kids...

I’ve been looking into PBS Kids and its lineup in comparison to when I grew up with it over 20 years ago. Compared to channels and streaming services by big commercial studios, PBS Kids has been surprisingly liberal in terms of the cartoons they offer, and their decisions. PBS Kids has had...

My number one comfort cartoon became Moomin 1990 a few years ago when it was put on YouTube. Though some American cartoons like Summer Camp Island and Harvey Beaks are pretty comfortable, I found Moomin one of the most relaxing experiences. The characters, themes, and world are strange but...

I had this thought over the few years, new streaming services came up mainly dedicated ones from major studios. The thought was a major studio has it’s own service like Disney they can put all of their own content and didn’t need to pay licensing fees since they own the service. However then we...

This. A Pokémon series with a drastic demographic increase would be difficult. Pokémon at best can only be PG at most for it’s media. I don’t expect TPCI to make an uncut redub, or release the episode featuring guns.

Bluey is a decent little kids show but it’s not as good as Sagwa, Oswald, or Moomin. I like the atmospheres in these shows more overall. Sagwa has very positive cultural representation and though it gets a little cynical, it has heartwarming characters and messages. Oswald while it looks cutesy...

I miss Suncoast Video Stores. They had a wide selection of movies and shows. Some of the titles that other stores didn’t regularly carry. I’ve been there when I was a kid in the 2000’s, they had a good anime selection. My local Suncoasts closed by 2010.

MLP: Friendship is Magic has no Blu-Ray release only DVD and they only go up to Season 7 and the entire series can be bought on digital stores. Besides being Hasbro’s longest show FIM doesn’t appear to be in danger as a tax write off so it should be safe digitally.

No word on my area yet in Sacramento. Though regular MeTV is KCRA 3.2 with it’s main channel being the NBC station. It’s likely MeTV Toons will get carried by KCRA or it’s sister KQCA 58 which is the CW/MyNetworkTV affiliate. KQCA which used to be the WB then turned to MyNetworkTV got...

As some of this thread mentioned TeenNick has scrubbed a lot of Dan Schneider content. I didn’t notice until I checked the schedule, and yeah for a while the TeenNick channel was virtually all Dan Schneider shows like iCarly and Henry Danger I remember they played Henry Danger all week after...

I’m probably the biggest 4Kids fanboy, I enjoy most of their shows for what they are and I’m a big fan of the voice actors but I’ll admit they were mismanaged as an overall licensing company. I actually grew up on 4Kids and wasn’t aware of how infamous they were until after they went bankrupt...

I like how Dexter engulfs the cover, more interesting than the plain covers from Ed, Edd, n Eddy and Foster’s. Honestly though while I appreciate several cartoons recently getting their series on disc, they all seem very belated. Dexter’s Lab I think should’ve got it’s complete series released...

If it seems worrying that My Adventures with Superman, Unicorn, and Checkered Past air on Adult Swim and not Cartoon Network, Adult Swim is still the same channel as Cartoon Network just at a later time with a different lineup and branding. CN Studio produced shows Primal and Close Enough were...

The 2010’s for Nick was a downgrade from the previous decade. Though 2010 in particular I consider their worst year, some of the most infamous SpongeBob episodes, the live action Last Airbender, Planet Sheen, Fred: The Movie while Cartoon Network that year got Adventure Time, Regular Show...

Good to know a Wings of Fire series is back in production even if it’s not the same as the one that was canned. It better be good enough to live up to the books though.

I look forward to MeTV toons as the only other free to air cartoon channel is PBS Kids. Furthermore the CW’s Saturday lineup (One Magnificent Morning) is just Jack Hanna’s into the Wild. -_-

All this kid wants is Mac & Cheese.

2D Animation for me. I only like CGI if it’s done well enough like in Disney, Dreamworks movies.

I liked Dan Schneider’s shows when I was a kid and thought they were funny at the time, but after seeing the documentary I further regret supporting them, though I already lost interest after Victorious and moved on to Regular Show as my go-to comedy, and I completely passed on Henry Danger and...

TMNT 2003 is my favorite TMNT series and I’m glad it finally got a very belated complete DVD release. Honestly the DVD release was my favorite thing to come out of Nick/Paramount in recent times.

In retrospect I consider Sagwa the Chinese Siamese Cat one of the best preschool/PBS Kids shows I’ve seen. It follows a Siamese Cat named Sagwa that lives in a palace in old time China with her family consisting of her mother and father, older brother Dongwa and her younger sister Sheegwa. They...

I was hoping this whole time Cartoonito would acquire Moominvalley. It’s not blatantly educational, but it’s more similar to My Little Pony and Littlest Pet Shop. Though the CGI Moominvalley series is not as good as the anime, I’d want some network or service in the US to air something Moomin...

Those familiar with how animation is distributed in the US notice certain scenarios. Broadcast networks showed kids cartoons on Weekend mornings and Weekday afternoons up until the 2000’s and 2010’s. A few adult Primetime cartoons but only Fox still has some. Cartoons on cable and streaming can...

I just realized what the X stands for on the service that used to be called Twitter… Don’t use it! But seriously so the new head of Twitter decided to rename the service to X. I’m just as confused as just about everyone else. Twitter made sense and was unique and clever, You tweet messages...

For me it was Pokémon, Yu-Gi-Oh, Bakugan, Beyblade and Total Drama.

My overall opinions on the Sonic the Hedgehog series: The Sonic series peaked in quality with Adventure 1&2 and the Sonic X anime. I thought they had the best stories and best characterizations, Adventure 1&2 even with minor flaws, have some of the most solid gameplay of the 3D games. Sonic X...

Everything Wrong with A Grand Day Out: The Moon is made of cheese Wallace & Gromit can breathe in space, no spacesuits Gravity in space and on the moon is apparently the same as Earth. But the ball they kick, floats in outer space When the robot lights a match to the fuel supply, it blasts off...

I thought the video game industry was horrible about keeping content available and preserved but sadly it seems like the film/TV industry has caught up. Most video games are tied to a certain platform and stop being physically printed and digitally distributed when the system is no longer...

Warner Bros. needs some more fantasy movies, sci-fi movies, and probably more of whatever Barbie was. Not just Superhero films as their flagship movies.

It sucks. DVDs and Blu-Rays keep getting scaled down while streamers and digital stores can take down content as they choose. There is no way out. On the bright side, pre-owned video discs are plentiful at secondhand stores so it’s a good time to collect a bunch of them for cheap.

The Mine Song Lyrics but Everytime Stingy says Mine the Text Changes Color: This mailbox is mine. And this triagonal sign. That blue balloon, the month of June. They're mine, mine, mine, mine, mine. Ziggy's sweets are mine. That birdie's tweets are mine. The city street, both of your feet...

Wings of Fire: The Animated Series. The animation medium needs it. NOW.

It’s possible to be nostalgic for works you didn’t actively grow up with. Whether it’s old works you haven’t heard of or newer works. I consider being nostalgic meaning giving you sentimental feelings, not simply watching any cartoon you remember when you were a kid. I prefer the Moomins over...

A few examples that come to mind are Thomas & Friends and Bob the Builder. I used to like these shows when I was I kid. They have adult followings and their reboots got a lot of hate. But I don’t think their originals hold up well. I grew up with a ton of preschool shows but many haven’t aged...

More cartoons should get home video releases even if the physical media market has been shrinking. The recent announcement of the Ed, Edd, n Eddy and Foster’s set reminded me there is still a physical media market. There are many cartoons from Cartoon Network, Warner Bros, Nick, Disney, etc...
