Cartoon Network Sucks Now: What Needs To Be Done In Order To Fix It

Anonus · 2012-08-19 21:07:02

First:

BRING BACK Johnny Bravo. The show's brand of humor may be just a tad stale but it can be freshened up. Namely, the celebrity guest stars need to actually be actively involved in the show's plotlines instead of "lol we exist and we're doing funny things". Also make additions, such as an episode about the dangers of eating too much soup and potentially giving birth to a horde of slug-men. The show needs to be educational in order to survive today.

Also, Suzy should be a shapeshifting demon queen who prefers to take the form of a little girl so that she can lure in humans and EAT THEM.

Also, BRING BACK Cartoon Cartoon Fridays. When I was a kid there was nothing better than Cartoon Cartoon Fridays after a long week of school. The children of today need that extra bit of happiness that the block gave my generation, so BRING IT BACK!

You watch cartoons, ha ha ha

Anonus · 2012-08-19 21:10:18

Yeah, well keep watching your generic procedurals, the shows in my day were way better and gooder so HA.

NEXT WEEK ON CSI: HH

"the cartoon murder"

Princess Alice · 2012-08-19 21:11:39

Why stop at Cartoon Cartoon Fridays? Cartoon Cartoons Wednesdays could make a great addition to the lineup!

ProfessorGator · 2012-08-19 21:12:30

I don't know. Remember how poorly-received Live Action Live Action Tuesdays was?

DESTROY TELEVISION

EAT CHOCOLATE PUDDING

Anonus · 2012-08-19 21:14:03

For some reason I imagined a version of the One Saturday Morning theme song mentioning a "middle of the week pick-me-up".

Spacey · 2012-08-19 21:15:33

DESTROY TELEVISION

EAT CHOCOLATE PUDDING

can't air police procedurals on pudding

Princess Alice · 2012-08-19 21:16:42

^^ Well you know, even though Friday has an exit sign, getting there still takes some time...

Imipolex G · 2012-08-19 21:16:44

MAKE IT HAPPEN

This should be a legit thing.

The classic version or the newer one with Tommy and Tara, really. (Although now they might be kinda old...)

One-Winged Eagle · 2012-08-19 21:29:11

It's always sucked.

It's just a brand of suck you found entertaining and now you don't find this particular brand of suck entertaining.

Things change.

Anonus · 2012-08-19 21:30:59

^^I prefer the classic version, honestly, even though in my mind it doesn't hold up because it's so hyperactive.

^OH MY GOD WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY DO YOU DARE CRITICIZE THE OLD DAYS???

Dude that's true but also a bit harsh don't you think

One-Winged Eagle · 2012-08-19 21:35:48

When I was younger I loved watching Cartoon Network.

Now I still love watching what Cartoon Network produces, albeit not as much as I used to.

I grew older and I found different things to love.

Imipolex G · 2012-08-19 21:37:33

THIS IS NOT A SERIOUS THREAD

You guys have forgotten how to nonsense

Anonus · 2012-08-19 21:37:35

If it means anything, I wasn't being serious; see the "nonsense" tag.

Corporal Forsythe · 2012-08-19 21:38:39

Oh. Well in that case all your favorite cartoons suck

One-Winged Eagle · 2012-08-19 21:40:20

I have to say that I still don't know how to read tags.

That said, I'll be damned if all nonsense doesn't have some lining of truth to it.

Imipolex G · 2012-08-19 21:41:22

Cartoon Network should do an adaptation of Foucault's Pendulum

Corporal Forsythe · 2012-08-19 21:42:59

Cartoon Network should do an adaptation of Pink Flamingos

Imipolex G · 2012-08-19 21:44:12

Cartoon Network should do an adaptation of The 120 Days of Sodom

One-Winged Eagle · 2012-08-19 21:45:34

Cartoon Network should burn to the ground and dance in its bones over the ashes before consuming everything and becoming a far, far worse terror to us all.

Tell me, am I doing this right?

Hexartes · 2012-08-19 21:46:26

^^^Nah, it doesn't have enough poop jokes.

Princess Alice · 2012-08-19 21:52:38

Clearly what they NEED to do is commission a 10th season of Rugrats called Rug Rats Yes!!.

This will air on their Saturday morning "Cartoons Are What I Like, Sometimes" programming block, alongside Checkrboard, a series based on Cartoon Network's 1992 logo

Anonus · 2012-08-19 22:01:51

"Cartoons Are What I Like, Sometimes"?

It should be called "Cartoons Are MOTHERFUCKING AWESOME And I Might Die Without Them!".

Imipolex G · 2012-08-19 22:02:34

Cartoon Network should do an adaptation of Naked Lunch

Princess Alice · 2012-08-19 22:10:02

^^ Maybe we should just call it "CARTOONS = GoOd."

AH'M A MEMBER OF A COUNTRY CLUB

COUNTRY MUSIC IS WHAT I LOVE

PlutoniumFist · 2012-08-19 23:12:49

Bring back SWAT Kats, but do an arc where the Turbokat goes down over a political hotspot and T-Bone dies, that'll shake things up, plus in the grander scheme of things, he's like a B- SWAT Kat.

I would watch this! :D

Sicko.

Cartoon Network needs Saturday Morning Watchmen

Hexartes · 2012-08-20 15:30:44

Rorschach, man. He's nutty.

Anonus · 2012-08-20 15:35:46

Heh, the animation on that's a lot better than the sorts of shows it's making fun of.

And Watchmen's a Time Warner property too, after all... :P

Odradek · 2012-08-21 12:53:28

Harry Partridge is funny, but he's made the "saturday morning cartoon of something that shouldn't be a saturday morning cartoon" joke too many times.

One-Winged Eagle · 2012-08-21 21:55:57

We must hold a Black Mass, sacrifice our firstborn, and commit all manner of obscenity to their remains before Cartoon Network can rise in its shining glory once again.

Justice4243 · 2012-09-29 00:08:56

I haven't had extended cable in years.

There's an X-men joke in there somewhere...

I have no idea what's good or bad in CN...

Also, I disliked Suzy and generally thought the second season of Johnny Bravo was worlds below the first.

I submit the fact that the first season was not afraid to all but scream that Johnny wasn't a virgin despite his impulsive, forceful ways as exhibit "A".

KJI · 2012-09-29 11:38:44

I agree, OP.

Viani · 2012-09-29 13:05:41

Hulu will undo the crappiness of CN, and it has. For I am happy, and not supporting the shows I do not like.

Gelzo · 2012-09-29 23:57:09

If you guys don't like Adventure Time, then I'm not sure how I'd be able to relate to your tastes in cartoons.

Viani · 2012-09-30 01:12:20

adventure item is good

Tachyon · 2012-09-30 01:18:38

I like it, although I haven't seen as much of it as I would like.
