Word... Yeah DiC has a pretty bad reputation, I don't think their slate will ever be wiped clean. They just seem to be digging themselves into a deeper and deeper hole. If I were an Artist out on the road looking for gigs or someone to pay for a studio for me to work in, and I got contracted with DiC. I would likely consider that the low point in my artistical career. As for shows like American Idol, how "Everyone watches them". That is because they have no idea what good music or lets just say any form of Art is, they just like to go with the flow. Really, no offense to anyone who really beleives that they like these kind of shows, but after you turn 50 and look back on all of these, you are going to be like "WTD?!" or "I thought that was good?" Seriously, I see it happen all the time, with my hippie uncles and aunts. I know that is going to be me, but hey, at least I can say I was thinking out-side of the box instead of in. And I am proud to say that I think that my thinking out-side of the box will actually get me somewhere.

Well, yeah, reruns I think, I just ish they still made the great shows that used to be on there.

Ed, Edd, n' Eddy is still in production. It just happens to take longer than the rest of the Cartoon Cartoons to air because it's still completely hand drawn in Canada. Well, the coloring is done on computers since Cells are dead.

Just about every show on Adult Swim. (Besides Family Guy and Futurama.) I used to watch Adult Swim, but it's just.......................meh.

You need to watch Korgoth of Barbaria, Shin-Chan, Trinity Blood and Robot Chicken. If anything, they've actually stopped pulling out stupid crap like Squidbillies and Saved by the Bell test runs.

I forgot Robot Chicken, although I've never seen the other shows. I guess I could try 'em out.

Any show like Trading Spouses should be locked away forever and its copies destroyed, and the creator should be drug out into the street and shot.

Quoted for immense truth

Seriously, if you actually think turning a skit from Chapelle's Show into an actual reality show is a good idea, you're responsible for a lot of the degeneration of today's society.

Speaking of Chapelle's Show, why'd they cancel it? The Lost Episodes are pretty funny, but a little too surreal for the normal episodes.

Actually, no. New eps of Ed, Edd, n' Eddy are being made. It's sixth season is being worked on, and it'll be set in the Winter, like how last season was set in Fall.
EDIT: Looks like Mr. Wiggles beat me, but at least I got to give some details about the new season.
And Glorb, Chapelle's Show was not cancelled. Dave Chappelle did'nt want to continue with the show, so Comedy Central aired the skits he did before he made the decision. Apparently they don't respect his opinion on the whole thing, and Dave said if they aired that, he'd never return.

Mr. Wiggles, I hate to be the one to tell you, but Squidbillies isn't a test run. It's getting a new season, so it'll be here for a while.

And DiC isn't all bad. I hated their dub of Sailor Moon, but I really liked Sonic the Hedgehog and Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog. Jaleel did an awesome job as Sonic.

One Piece. Plain and simple.

You've obviously never seen the original.

Yeah, I used watch AoStH every time it was aired on Toon Disney.

I should've made it clear that when I said test runs, I was refering only to Saved by the Bell. I used Squidbillies as an example of one of AS's many cartoons with poor animation and lazy writing. Sure I could've used Tom Goes to the Mayor and 12 oz. Mouse but everyone already knows they suck.

superstarMASIAH · « **Reply #39 on:** October 09, 2006, 12:02:10 PM »

DiC was good when I was around 4 or 5. But since then, the cartoons just got less moral, and more ( I don't know how to say it ) idealistic. They just make up stupid characters that dress cool, and say cool catch phrases. That is the only reason that the majority of little kids watch them, well, I think so.

Dave Chapelle didn't want to do the show anymore, obviously.

I hear a lot of hate for Degrassi. I've never seen that show, but I've seen commercials for it as well as other shows on the Noggin network.

By the look of it, it seems terrible. As if students have terrible lives in junior high.

(hahaha, after I typed that sentence, I chuckled to myself, as I found it ironic that I DID hate my life when I was in 7th grade, but only due to the fact that students acted like jerks to me.)

My school life is NOTHING compared to the lives of the characters in the series. I hardly ever worry about crap such as what others think of me, how I look, or some other crappy topic that show has covered.

Funny though, I know a few people who do enjoy the show...

TEM · « **Reply #42 on:** October 10, 2006, 12:08:06 AM »

You just talked a lot of smack about that show immediately after you admitted never seeing it. Come on, now.

Jman · « **Reply #43 on:** October 10, 2006, 02:08:11 PM »

It's all "teen drama." When those kids go to high school, it will be "high school drama."

I'm never one to sit and think "Gosh, that chick I met today is hot. But what if she doesn't like me?"

Frankly, I don't care. I used to, when I was that age, but now that I've actually grown up, I just don't care about stuff like that.

I'm currently in my second year of high school and man oh man is it nothing like the way it's portrayed on that Degrassi show (I know because my cousin forced me to watch it a few times).
