    The Old Cartoon Network Thread

    I think another thing that makes MLO feel like a "refugee from Nick" is the fact that Nika Frost voiced Mike: I honestly can't remember ever hearing her voice coming from a CN character or show, but I know she was used from time to time in various Nicktoons, such as Lola from CATDOG, or Olga...

    Courage the Cowardly Dog returning?

    I just learned that a Season 1 writer passed away this summer: Irvin S. Bauer. I notice he never wrote for the show after Season 1, but was the show's "story consultant" all four seasons. Personally, I think what made Season 1 argueably the strongest season of the show was that Dilly was...

    The Old Cartoon Network Thread

    PPG wasn't necessarily my thing, but I loved how Mojo Jojo once lampshaded their incredible simplistic design during a promo or commercial or CCF bit or whatever where he remarks that they don't even have hands, "So what is that they are punching me with? Flippers?!" Then again, I also liked...

    Arthur - Where is the Show Going?

    The troll on dA and his fascination with hershey kiss nipples is creepy enough, but seeing this coming from the actual show is downright disturbing: What were the animators thinking when they gave Baby Kate swollen nurples?

    "Peanuts" movie in development for November 2015 release

    Isn't it a tad disrespectful to Schulz to credit this movie as being, "From the creators of ICE AGE and RIO"? Then again, Blue Sky doesn't seem to be as instantly recognizable as a studio as, say, Pixar or DreamWorks, but still, it almost seems like when THE MUPPETS (2011) and MMW were "Based on...

    The Chipmunks

    Nick's finally resuming new episodes starting next week . . . but they're still splitting the episodes in half each day to spread them out for the entire month.

    The Old Cartoon Network Thread

    Yep! Ironically though, the promos for it (as well as the King Crab cartoon) included footage from "A Night at the Katz Motel" for some reason. Come to think of it, I actually remember when the show premiered, "A Night at the Katz Motel" was actually paired with "Night of the Weremole." They...

    The Old Cartoon Network Thread

    IIRC, Klasky Csupo did work on MLO . . . I think, I don't remember exactly. I read somewhere online that there's a lot of controversy surrounding the show over who gets the glory for the show, because I think there were at least two creators - one of whom conceived the show in terms of...

    The Old Cartoon Network Thread

    Reminscing about Cartoon Cartoon Weekend, I remember how starting with the second annual CCW in 1998, they used that their "pilot" time as well, where they would have special broadcasts for two new What A Cartoon! pilots that would potentially lead to a series: in 1998, we got the MIKE, LU & OG...

    Now what's going on with YouTube?

    YeeEEeesh! YT's probably tried to get me to subscribe to like twenty different channels I have no interest in. On that note, when did the Amazing Atheist suddenly become relevant again? I thought that guy faded into the sunset years ago.

    The "I Saw Something REALLY Weird Today" Thread

    Got an email from Facebook with more friend suggestions, and somehow, for some reason, someone out there is using one of my ancient internet handles as a real name and pretending to be Courage the Cowardly Dog. O.O

    Sesame Street Introduces New Autistic Muppet, Julia

    Getting back ot the topic at hand, I talked to Alexandra today to see what she knows about the intended use for Julia, and it would seem that she was, indeed, created specifically for the online storybook and related material . . . so, I guess we won't actually be seeing her on the show any time...

    CPB's absence from Season 30

    Okay, I'm just going to come right out and ask the question: why are some people out there obsessed with this kind of thing?

    When you need to rant...

    Okay, I don't know what's going on, or what the deal is, but for like two weeks now, there's been random explosions in the neighborhood that pop at any given time of the time (sometimes as early as the crack of dawn) and nobody seems to know where they're coming from, what's causing them, or why...

    Sesame Street Introduces New Autistic Muppet, Julia

    I'd hate to think that after working with SST for over twenty years that Joey would be conceited enough to leave the show because they're doing away with the hosting bits: the only info we have is that he fought for over a year over what he thought was "the heart and soul of the show," you...

    Questions about anything

    Oh, and something else: why did Jimmy Kimmel get another new set when he just got a new set a few years ago? His current new set is terrible: looks like he's been downgraded to doing his show from some kind of bunker.

    Courage the Cowardly Dog returning?

    I must confess, I actually do wonder just why exactly CN's been showing Courage so much love lately? Again, Aside from EEE getting their first two seasons released (with special features, mind you) years ago, and their current shows like ADVENTURE TIME getting DVDs, no other CN Hall of Fame...
