Remember Toonami?

What happened to teh Good Ol Days of Cartoon Network. When they had Toonami. Where if you were at home Mon-Friday 5Pm-7Pm, then again from 11PM-1AM, and again on Saturday Night from around 7Pm to 1AM you saw great Anime such as DragonBall Z, Ruroni Kenshin, Yu Yu Hakusho, Inuyasha, Cowboy Bebop, Gundam Wing, Gundam G, Big O, Outlaw Star, Ronnin Warriors, Full Metal Alchemist . The list can go on and on. Then they also had their own Shows such as Teen Titans, Justice League. Even a few good Animated Movies. I saw a lot of these shows for the first time on this block...(before i found where you can download the original subs). Toonami was in heavy rotation from around 2000-2007. Then it started to fall off and all you saw was Naruto and Bleach if you were lucky. Adult Swin still runs Anime....from 12PM-5AM, COME ON!

The Politics of it all is that Cartoon network makes more from showing you a marathon of Total Drama Island for the third week straight then by paying for the Licensing of an Anime. And you wonder you people Download?

No wonder TV is full of Reality Shows, about someone they hasn't been around for 20 years, in a Mansion with 12 crazy and drunk people all trying to win. Only to have the winner and/or the Runner-Up get their own show and do it all over again....Oh Damn that's 90% of VH1 isn't it? LOL. Holla!

  2. I can't get with english Dubs too much. I like the originals, but when these shows were running they had pretty decent voice overs
