Here's a thread where you can rant on different channels, shows, etc.

It's easy for me to say I'm pissed off at Nickelodeon. It's being filled up with unfunny situation comedies which are not only unfunny, they trick you into thinking they're funny. Those stupid laugh tracks just fool people into thinking piss poor writing is funny. Shows like iCarly, Victorious, Bucket and Skinner, and so on need to stop being produced. I'm not saying. Nick should only do cartoons, I liked the Amanda Show, All That, and Pete and Pete, but the stuff they're making now is a slap in the face to programming. It's a large crap stain on the face of television. They had so many good shows previosly with Ren and Stimpy, Rugrats, and Rocko's Modern Life. But then Viacom took over and made it one of the biggest HQ of worthless celeberty vomit. Viacom turned the channel into a transitional station into MTV (but I'll talk about that later).

^this. Spongebob is the only thing left that is good on that channel.

Cartoon Network is going downhill as well. Really, who watches "Hole in the wall"?

Screw the BBC

One simple reason. Mongrels got cancelled
The one show I start really really liking and THEY GO AND CANCEL IT
They could have gone at least one more series without it getting stale

Cartoon Network cancelled Hole in the Wall, Destroy Build Destroy, and Dude What Would Happen. And thank goodness. Those shows were so bad it was painful being in the same room. Out of Jimmy's Head was the most appauling sack cancer pus that has ever been brought into this mortal coil, but I'll talk about that later. Too bad they're bring in this retarted bull crap called Level Up. It's called Cartoon Network for a reason... TO PLAY FRIEKING CARTOONS! I honestly think there should be a seperate channel to play all the crappy sit coms so normal functioning human beings don't have to deal with this garbage!

It's just a rip off of a Japanese game show. Unfortunately, only Japan can make something that stupid actually work.

I stopped watching cartoons after 2004. When I watched tv, I always watched history channel. (because back then it was actually about history)

I have officially given up on Disney Channel. They are the lowest form of television. This is the company who brought Mickey Mouse, Snow White, and many others. But now... but now it's awful the ONLY good show is Phineas and Ferb which can sometimes be cheesey. Everything else is a sit com. Not one of them has no laugh track. It's a sad fate of the greatest animation studio. There are other toons like Kick Buttowski or Fish Hooks, but they blow. Disney is now such a let down I'm thrown into an rageful cyclone or misery and despair every time I hear the name. Maybe one day, it will return to its normal Disney self.

Even Stevens was awesome. The plots of Disney Channel's shows have gone from out of the ordinary to "some boy likes me!"

MassimoV · « **Reply #12 on:** January 23, 2012, 09:51:05 PM »

Exactly. I could deal with some of their non-animated shows back in the day. Even Steven, Mickey Mouse Club, even (Though I hate to admit it) Phill of the Future. Now it's mindless garbage being slowly squeezed out the unholy turdhole of Disney writers.

Why is it that we're only ranting about cartoon channels? XD

MassimoV · « **Reply #14 on:** January 23, 2012, 09:59:25 PM »

Cause I'm in love with cartoons. You can talk about whatever you want, but I'm sticking with the cartoons.

Meganerdbomb · « **Reply #15 on:** January 23, 2012, 11:20:16 PM »

And there really are so few good cartoons these days. That's probably one of the reasons My Little Pony is so popular. It's actually one of the few good new cartoons. Adventure Time is pretty awesome too, and Nickelodeon plays classic cartoons from the 90's late at night.

get your ponies out of this board or i will punish you

Back then when I was watching cartoon network (something like 15 years ago), t'was Dexter's Laboratory, Inspector Gadget and other old cartoons. Was good.

Now I have no idea what is on it.

Discovery Channel became full of shows about people doing their jobs rather than cool innovative stuff that provokes deep thought.
