State of Cartoon Network
-
@Ebomnitrix Also, I feel that the effects of the new President of Cartoon Network have really not come into affect yet. I feel that we will start to see what her leadership brings next year.
-
actually @ Cooljay7
She has done a few things.
Making the Powerpuff Girls and Ben 10 Reboots happen.
and Ben 10 switching from Bandai to Playmates. -
@Ebomnitrix Thats true my bad. Hopefully we will see her bring to new original shows to Cartoon Network soon.
-
One question I have about this is was the show canceled by Cartoon Network or J.G. Quintel?
I would think that it was canceled by J.G. Quintet because he wanted to end the show on a good note. -
@Ebomnitrix Well I didn't say that Mighty Magiswords is replacing Regular Show. I just said that there's a new show called Mighty Magiswords coming out. That's it.
From 4 shows to 1 show per year? Jeez.
Well before Nickelodeon was doing worse that CN but now Nickelodeon is turning things around and just doing all these great things for the channel. A while back there was that crossover of the current and 1980s TMNT that I heard a lot of people really enjoyed. There's also the upcoming Hey Arnold Jungle movie that's currently being worked on right now and recently Nickelodeon announced a 1-hour movie special of Rocko's Modern Life being made with the creator of the show returning as the Executive Producer and Director of it. I believe I mentioned a while back on here as well how Nickelodeon actually has better viewer numbers and ratings than Cartoon Network. Nickelodeon really is actually turning things around.
I very much agree with your last sentence as well. Cartoon Network really does need to turn things around. Make the channel intended for viewers from the ages of 9-14 again or even more importantly just make the channel intended for cartoon fans to enjoy watching again. Cartoon Network had so much success that way. If they don't turn things around, Cartoon Network will eventually, if not soon, collapse.
-
there is three things I would want if they make a third channel have it be named toonami and have it play all the stuff that made it great and have tom and sarah host it
-
Cartoon Network lost over 20 million viewers within 7 to 8 years.
http://www.statista.com/statistics/228934/cable-tv-networks-cn-cartoon-network-watched-within-the-last-7-days-usa/Like I said, even Nickelodeon is doing better than Cartoon Network.
http://www.ratingsintel.com/think-kids-report-youth-viewing-habits/Yes the growth of the internet does affect these stats as well but it still shows just how bad things are going for Cartoon Network and how the quality and treatment of their recent shows have put them in this very situation as well.

Cartoon Network needs to greenlight Back to Backspace & Twelve Forever as full animated shows. They shouldn't always keep relying on reboots. Cartoon Network needs more variety & original content.
Even though I am excited for Justice League Action, I am concerned that there aren't any other campy & lighthearted DC animated shows that are currently in production. There are times where I do want some brand new campy & lighthearted DC animated shows to air entirely on Hulu instead of Cartoon Network.
DC Comics & Cartoon Network do a very lousy job at announcing new information.
I will give the show a chance, but I'm not excited for the Ben 10 reboot. I do want to move on to new things, but I'm not really to move away from the Ben 10 franchise without a Lucky Girl spin-off show.
-
@NelsonYeung2 I don't think a Lucky Girl spin off is not going to happen honestly, Ben 10 is aimed toward young boys and CN is not interested in making a Gwen series. Kinda wish they make an anime like short but that will never happen.

Man of Action said there are plans for a Lucky Girl spin-off show, but Cartoon Network Southeast Asia has put her show on hold.
-
@NelsonYeung2 that sounds interesting, I honestly wish they do Ben 10 with a Japanese company as well, what the heck MOA!?
-
it would of been awesome but I hope they don't have gwen date kevin in it
-
@KorseBLI-ND Unfortunately they say that Kevin will be in it so they are possibly still dating.
-
@Rexfan1333 Also note that the recording took place back in 2013 meaning that ideas could change.
-
okay just I am not a fan of the gwevin pairing because to it is dump that gwevin falls in love with a guy trying to kill what's next vilgax
-
@KorseBLI-ND Me too, but I feel they might change it, I also hope they have Ben appear though.
-
ah yeah and with me I hope ben and gwen become a couple but because of the damn think of the children groups it would never happen and the other reason I hate gwenvin is because of the damn gwevins destroying the forum I used to be on
-
@KorseBLI-ND considering it is a Japanese company, it would be possible to have Ben and Gwen a couple because being with a sibling/cousin has been around in Japanese culture for decades.
-
I know I watched a bunch of animes that have that stuff in them like tenchi muyo and oreimo and some others

I would recommend this video on YouTube by FutureGohanSSJ2. He gives such a valid point about what and how Cartoon Network is nowadays.
