      I came across this podcast by the Nerdist Podcast thanks to shadows59 from FanFiction.net. This is a recent podcast that was posted back in August 2016. It features voice actor Billy West from Futurama on it. What really caught my attention and got me interested was that Billy West actually rants about the way that cartoons are nowadays especially on Cartoon Network (I don't remember if he mentions Cartoon Network but considering what he's describing and ranting about, I'd say that he's referring to CN). If anyone wants to check this podcast out, here's the link to it. I don't remember exactly when in the podcast he makes this rant but it is in the podcast.

                @Ben-10-Fan Good for them. Now if only Cartoon Network can stop BSing their fans and viewers and actually display a lot more care and effort into making good cartoon shows. Also, nowadays, I don't find getting 1 million subscribers on YouTube to be as rewarding anymore considering just how often getting that achievement is. Cartoon Network got 1 million subscribers and so did many many many many many many many many many many other channels on YouTube. So yeah, that's not as big of an achievement anymore.

                        See this is why if I'm going to make a cartoon show, especially if its comedy, I'm just going to making fun of the trenders rather than following them, but even then its something I would barely do because I would like to be fresh and original and actually be the one to create the "meme" rather than follow it. And if I'm going to make fun of a modern trend, a good example would be the Pidgeot hair style, questioning why almost every person has that now with a beard shadow or I'll just make fun of something else. I mean in kids cartoons you need something that's not the same show repeated over and over again, especially with the art style we see on CN nowadays, now we actually need something different so it can separate one show from another, and the only ones I'm seeing doing that right now are Steven Universe (while other shows are trying to copy it), and Mighty Magiswords, even the terrible Teen Titans Go... (in terms of animation and how it first started anyway, ignoring Season 2 and after that)

                        It's Action Time!

                                  RegularCapital's response on why DC animated shows air on Cartoon Network:

                                  http://www.toonzone.net/forums/threads/justice-league-action-news-discussion-thread-part-2-spoilers.5554842/page-21

                                  Time Warner is a complex company, Turner (Cartoon Network) is semi-autonomous with its own management and is financially independent to Warner Bros, however CN gets a slightly better deal compared to everyone else outside the Time Warner group and naturally get first dibs on anything they produce animation-wise. It's not much of a bad deal, Warner Bros. gets money for animation production and Turner keeps the ad revenue. If the CW wants to air Adventure Time, Warner Bros (and CBS) would have to pay Turner, it works both ways.

                                  I've recorded a short promo of Justice League Action (directly from my cable box) which is due to premiere on Cartoon Network UK this Saturday, I aim to record the longer one this week.

                                  Makes me think, could this replace Pokemon on Saturday Mornings?

                                          If you watch the Cartoon Network pilot Back to Backspace, the boardroom scene was basically a parody of Cartoon Network's Shady Business Practices.
