    That actually is a good idea.

    False. Cartoon Network is owned by Turner Broadcasting System (TBS), a Time Warner company. So Cartoon Network isn't owned by Warner Bros., they're both owned by the same conglomerate way up at the top. And considering that pretty much all film and television media in the US is owned by only six or so conglomerates (see the members of the MPAA), that's not terribly surprising.

    Well. With Disney acquiring LucasFilms, I think we can assume that Clone Wars will be hopping over to the Disney Channel in the coming months. Who here thinks this is going to really, REALLY screw over Cartoon Network since they nixed ThunderCats and delayed DC Nation?

    After you said this, i getting a feeling Xiaolin Chronicles won't last long. Which is bad for me since i think Xiaolin Showdown is a great show.

    Well, it's been confirmed that the rest of the season will continue on Cartoon Network, but it's looking like Season 6 will be heading over to Disney XD.

    I wish Dexter's Lab and Courage got another season, They are 2 of my favorite CN cartoons. At least Courage,Cow & Chicken, Johnny Bravo and Samarai Jack are on CN from 9pm to 11pm in the UK :)

    The jokes made me chuckle, but the animation is crap and the characters are butchered. The very first episode has Raven tricking the Titans to go looking for legendary sandwich ingredients so she can watch a MLP knock-off in peace.

    Yeah I seen Ep 1 & 2 on YouTube and I think it's good enough. We all know that it won't be as good as the first Teen Titans cartoon. I did like the one where Raven's dad gives the team powers like Starfire talking like a teenager (I don't know why but I find it funny when Starfire says to Raven ''Haters gonna hate'' :D

    Here's something on Xiaolin Chronicles, I'm not too sure about the changes.

    As for Teen Titans Go! Well I don't really like it.

    From looking at the link you posted about Xiaolin Chronicles.....Well....my thoughts are...

    First they've screwed up Dojo's colour scheme. I really don't like Clay,Raimundo, and Kimiko's designs. I don't know why but their faces just look weird. Raimundo's in particular. Omi looks OK. As for this new character. He looks exactly like Omi with a pair of glasses and a tiny change in the colour scheme and it feels sorta lazy. Dojo's design looks a little weird as well.

    Did I mention the new guy's name is Ping-pong?

    Also, here's some leaked footage (featuring Jack Spicer's temp voice actor, Tara Strong).

    Lastly, apparently they could keep all of the original voice actors due to most of them not having dual citizenship in Canada. All I remember is Tara Strong is one of the few that can stay.

    Everyone's already said all the old shows that I watched..So I'll discuss the new shows that I actually watch every now and then.. The most deserving of these shows, in my opinion, is Regular Show. That show is just downright funny, whether you're a kid or an adult. It appeals to both generations which I think is amazing. Then shows like Gumball and Adventure time are more "Kid" orientated so I could never get into them..but I would still watch Gumball over Adventure time. As far as Adult Swim..sigh..It's great that Toonami is back but I have a feeling it'll soon be gone again..And we'll never get to watch shows like One Piece or Case Closed..that's more on Funimation's part but I won't get into that..

    You wouldn't imagine how adult-themed Adventure Time actually is, despite its very kids-friendliness. There are some heavy underlying themes, especially in recent episodes, dealing with certain stuff about not just growing up, but also things like coping with loss or adult fears like children and stuff. It's really heavy.

    Yeah, I know what you mean.It has underlying stuff but it's projected at kids which is great and I totally support..but a lot of stuff on there can arguably be too much for a child to comprehend..dating and kids before marriage (Jake and the Unicorn), as opposed to teaching kids otherwise.but then again..almost every "Cartoon" is like that nowadays. I'm not opposed to it too much, it has the positive stuff so I don't mind..And to my knowledge there is a HUGE fan base for Adventure Time.. But I just tend to catch myself watching more Regular Show..just cuz it's more relatable..(couple of guys trying to have fun while on the job) lol And just the irony in the title as well is funny in itself..:D

    Well, in their defense, they're like, adults, technically. Jake's about 28 and Lady Rainicorn is, I dunno, ancient? Also, they've been dating since before the series, and I assume their relationship was already a few years old (at least one year, since the series started before Finn turned 13, who celebrated his birthday in the episode Mystery Train, season 2, episode 19) before they actually got kids.

    Also, Mortal Folly and Mortal Recoil most definitely will scar kids for life, heck, even adults find that shit creepy.

    Honestly I'm lost in the main story of Adventure Time mainly because while I like watching it (Adventure Time, Regular Show, and Gumball is probably the best things on CN since KND and Hi Hi PuffyAmiYumi though Chowder and Flapjack were pretty good as well) Anyway the problem is that I have no idea even where in the series CN in the UK is putting it on. I'm having the same problem with Regular Show and Gumball as well because when they don't have new episodes on, They seem to only repeat Season 1 and it begins getting repetitive. Looking on the bright side....Its honestly better than what cartoons Nick has on lately.

    One day I was watching something on Nick. I'm not sure what it was I was watching but the ads came on and then a promo for what quite possibly be the completely biggest load of bullshit I've ever seen as a cartoon. It was some promo about a new cartoon which looking from the promo was just about space monkeys making fart jokes or farting and it looked so stupid. How does Nick go from Danny Phantom,Invader Zim and My Life as a Teenage Robot to farting space monkeys?
