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.

the original cartoons on cartoon network were the best like ed, edd n eddy, dexters lab, cow & chicken. now the newer cartoons are just ruining it like chowder and the amazing world of gumball, most of the newer cartoons are just completely random with no sense of comedy about them, the only newer cartoon that is any good IMHO is adventure time

When Robot Wars stopped I was stuck with nothing to watch after school so I spent all my time alone and doing hardly anything except talking to myself. And when I eventually found something interesting I had to go and have tea. So basically I'm blaming the lack of Robot Wars for my loneliness. Then I found the re-runs on Jetix but it was only 30 minutes long! So I watched it but I was asking myself why wont they show interviews with the teams befor matches and the battle stats? Where are the Featherweight matches and World Championship Qualifires too? So that made me annoyed.

Another thing that bugged me was QUEST taking off the old episodes of MythBusters. I was enjoying the early series and I liked Scotty too. I was looking for a particular Myth that they ware testing but it always skipped the episode I wanted to see.

Challenge doesn't like me either cos it stopped playing Pointless and it never shows Catchphrase or Takeshi's Castle or Ninja Warrior when I'm not at school and when I watch on the weekend it's usually doubles of Bullseye or Golden Balls. That really annoys me.

I had a rant about BBC4 once but I can't remember any of it. The most recent thing is that they've started showing Suits on Dave at 9pm which is when I watch Mock The Week or Qi or something else that's good comedy. But cos thats there instead I cant watch Mock The Week or Qi or something else that's good comedy! I don't like cop dramas! Why did you do it, Dave?

Ranting over.

Oh the Cartoon Cartoons. Didn't mind Chowder though it was incredible annoying. Gumball takes stupidity to the extreme and has no funny jokes. It's like that kid in middle school who always thought he was funny but was really just annoying. Cartoon Network were probably going to get some redemption with Cartoonstitute, but they were too lazy to produce it. All that came of it was Regular Show, which I kind of like, and Secret Mountain of Fort Awesome which came from Uncle Grandpa. Can't judge that show too much because it's never frieking on. Also, what happened to Toonami. Now, I'll side with 027, I don't like anime at all. Toonami though made anime enjoyable, and I was sort of pissed when they cancelled it.

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

I miss Monster Garage...

Now I have no idea what is on it.

What? This thread is for TV shows and Friendship is Magic is a TV show, not to mention it's one of the only cartoons these days that actually has charm and humor.

Yeah, I liked Toonami for the most part. Basically because they used to play Yugioh, the only anime that I like.

also yay for people hating anime because it gives me an excuse to lure 027 back on here

I barely watch TV anymore- when I do its in the morning when I have breakfast, and my brother has Garfield, one of the newer scooby doo's and tom and jerry on boomerang.

TV myself? I only ever watch doctor who (which isn't so great anymore tbh) and primeval when they're on. Otherwise I sporadically watch QI, mock the week, the big bang theory, futurama, man vs food and a couple others whenever I get the TV to myself.

Only thing I'm looking forward to TV wise is Red Dwarf series X in september. What a wait that's going to be.

this post lacks grammar

Stereotype. I prefer coffee anyway.
Generally I stick to watching repeats of old Red Dwarf episodes and occasionally QI or Futurama.

MassimoV · « **Reply #35 on:** January 24, 2012, 07:48:37 PM »

Yeah, tell 027 that I downloaded Game Shark 3 from the bot exchange (gosh I love the exchange).

Anyways, I lure away from cartoons for just one moment. MTV has really been a HQ of missing the point. MTV stands for music television not annoying reality television. I mean Fantasy Factory is entertaining, but Jersey Shore is a miserable pile of putrid programming. That show truly is the skid mark on the clean underwear of television. Who wants to whatch jerks act like idiots while drunk. I know I don't. What happened to the days when they would play music. Now, Jimmy the Cab Driver commercial would be completely irrelevant for the channel. What a load of crap.

I hated when Boomerang merged with Cartoon Network.
