Hey guys, I happened across a Kickstarter campaign that has really caught my interest, and it only has a couple of days left so I thought I would bring it to your attention here (mods, if this goes against the rules in any way, I'm sorry and you can delete). Chances are if you are on this forum...

The way I've heard it, it is the partnership between Amblin/Spielberg and WB that no longer exists that has kept any new Animaniacs stuff from happening... well, that has made it legally tricky. WB can't just decide "Hey, let's make a new Animaniacs!" the same way they can say "Hey, let's make...

Although it's not as big a deal now in this age of digital cable as it once was, I have to wonder if we're going to end up seeing one of Corus's existing channels get rebranded with the Disney name for the sake of getting preferencial treatment on the old cable dial. It certainly wouldn't be...

That is the huge question. DHX is a huge content producer so they have options, but they are still going to be scrambling for new content to fill those channels up.

That's my point - it will not with VRAK under its current ownership by Bell. They could have called it that before the merger when it was all owned by Astral.

Quite the opposite, actually. They're essentially removing all programs from three channels (Family Channel, Disney XD and Disney Junior, owned by DHX, now without the Disney Channel contract) to create 1 different channel (Disney Channel Canada, owned by Corus, under their new contract). But...

What's extra weird about that is their plans to re-brand the French-language Disney Junior the same way as "Famille Junior" - except that there is no "Famille" brand in French Canada. They had a "Canal Famille", but it was rebranded as VRAK TV years and years ago, and Bell Media never sold it...

Actually, Kid vs. Kat does run on Nickelodeon in Canada. :D

Nothing to back this up, but I was under the impression he liked it for what it was but that it was... quite different from his original vision. Been waiting a while for this one. I actually gave up waiting last year and bought the Australian release. :D But will happily double-dip.

I remember when .hack//Roots aired on Cartoon Network at 5AM quite a while back now, the pop-up banners would say "You are watching My Gym Partner's A Monkey". And this happened on every single airing. Literally as it was airing. Comparatively speaking, having no custom graphics/bumpers is...

If they suddenly retooled the show and it became focused on Bob and his two daughters, I'd be a more regular viewer. I just find Linda especially so annoying.

For clarification's sake, Astrolupine is talking about G4 Canada, which is the primary broadcaster for Adult Swim shows in Canada these days. And MAD just started airing alongside them earlier this month.

I guess the criteria for this list is simply that it was reviewed in the 2000s, but it does seem strange for the '70s Star Trek series to be included in a Toons of the 2000s list. Also, sounds like Netflix is just about as bad with anime as Zip.ca is up here.

I don't think we really have to worry about this. After all, this happened a long time ago. The only reason we're just hearing about it now is because it's from a galaxy far far away.

What Neo Ultra Mike said. Reading through this thread, I'm genuinely surprised that so many other people seemingly didn't get the unique concept of this episode. After hearing all the hype about an "Aqua Teen live-action episode", it certainly was not what I expected, but I enjoyed it.
