This is not a joke

According to Discord users, today CN PT cut an entire segment from Doraemon (The Day Dorami Was Born)

You're right, WBD EMEA now outright BANS depictions of birth

Imagine if they air The Cramp Twins again and cut the part of the intro with the twins fighting while in their mother's womb

I don’t get why CN Germany has a decent night schedule and the other Munich-based feeds air Gumball spam. Does the team only care about developing their country’s feed or what?

Same thing applies to some shows aired at daytime.

It's not about selfishness, but the fact CN Germany has to struggle because of pay TV not being particularly popular and the channel being "forced" to show very little advertising: actually none now, they have dropped it completely

Believe it or not, when channels struggle have more variety than when they don't; they have to still find an "audience", somehow
Plus, having no ads leave more space to programming

In CEE the channel has more of a fanbase, and is more ad-heavy; same as the UK version of CN and even the likes of Boing Italy

In telly terms national selfishness doesn't exist: they would show a testcard 24/7, if this made to them money

I barely even watch CN now (and due to Disney caring about it's own channel again). When a channel like Disney Channel has had HD quality for almost a year, CN still has this SD quality. Even most of Europe already have CN in good quality. Honestly, at this point they don't bother spending money due to Max.

When I watch their content, I demand for HD quality. Just updating you. I will post some news here and there but otherwise I won't be as active on this thread as before.

so you will watch less and less CN only because of the SD quality?

No. Schedule is unchangeable and the on air presentation is just boring. Having the same look for 7 years doesn't help either.

that sounds more logical.

Still, I would prefer having the variety of your feed over here on CN CEE any time.

CN Portugal energy, worse even is the amount of cuts in the non-Warner programming.

In 2022, I started archiving old CN CEE continuities, mainly from between 2008-2011, and, starting from November 2023, I compiled them into a folder. I don't want my nostalgia to be lost.

This is the current state of my folder. It will grow as more interesting continuities get uploaded. (The RYW promo was also saved, because that's the only post-2010 ident era I love.)

Kinda shocks me that CN wasn’t dubbed into Czech until 2017…what

 

[Francisque]

Sadly Czechia and Slovakia have been for a very long time an afterthought for many intl. companies
But even Greece and Finland (especially) are not far off

CZ+SK the wealthiest markets in CEE, but the lower population of the combined countries sometimes matter more than many people think

You get more profit by targeting Polish viewers (38 million viewers against around 15 for CZ+SK), also because Poland is by far not a poor country (not anymore) and still has a high pay TV penetration rate; anyway, most of the Balkans is often even worse

Should I say why?...less people watch CN CEE in the last years,why again? Only 10 or shows are on the schedule,there is nothing good to lure people into watching it and the Gumball nights are often avoided to watch for a WHOLE night)
Only kids watch under 14 or 16 (they having most of the time doing other things than watching TV) This is something about lifestyle,what they do when kids are growing up or the parents who wants for thier kids in thier daily routine and that being to stay less on the TV and being productive or being social outside (at least in Romania and Moldova as I've seen or heard)
That being said,even me..I don't even have CN anymore due Digi changes (it won't be hard to add it back but...it dosen't worth it)
Maybe is the same with Greece,they picked Disney (maybe is more watched that CN or something,who knows)

CN Nordic has around 15 shows but it has gone autopilot. They recycle the same promos all the time for new episodes. No timeslot mention. No schedule changes in 7 months outside of two very small changes. Even with variety, I'm feeling bored. It's embarrasing that Cartoonito does schedule changes every month and CN doesn't makes me think they care about CN's sister channel more. CN is just there to promote Max. CN CEE can't be that bad. More Gumball but the schedule changes often which brings in more diversity.

Same here,same schedule for a long time..
The shows are boring and excluding new episodes from the shows they got on the schedule,is way bad than CN Nordic believe me

 

[Markus Nelis]

I like the shows, it's just how the linear channels are treated like poop.

actually, we still get occasional schedule changes on CN CEE, even last-minute ones (aaagh!!). More besides the times new episodes are airing for shows not in the usual schedule

It's not a big change tho,still the same shows with a "mask" or a "hat"

 

[Markus Nelis]

Apparently schedules didn't update in time so this is a last minute change. Tiny Toons Looniversity starts today at 5:30p on CN Nordic.
