    Cartoon Network needs better scheduling

    You can anticipate that Christina Miller will order an overhaul of Cartoon Network's scheduling, before too long. Yet with new shows arriving, like the new Inspector Gadget and Transformers series, she'll also look for ways to diversify CN's lineup. Let's also remember, the new Powerpuff Girls...

    Can Cartoon Network market a female protagonist to boys?

    Well, Christina Miller is running Cartoon Network, so expect a programming change into a more gender neutral direction, just as Cartoon Network began with in 1992. I believe animated programs with a female protagonist, can work, here- it's just a matter of how well the idea is pitched.

    Is it possible to take off in the animation industry without moving to Los Angeles or New York?

    We've got animation studios that have set up shop in San Francisco- lately, the Bay Area has become a hot bed for animation studios. Of course, there are other animation studios, located throughout the United States, but they specialize in commercial animation, but that might change, should it...

    Could Disney talk with Shout Factory about releasing Muppet Babies complete series on DVD?

    I've been thinking about this for a several weeks- before Muppet Babies ever sees a digitally-remastered DVD release, since Disney would be responsible, it would have to get clearances for clips it doesn't own and subsequently wind up "butchering" the master tapes of each show. Shout Factory...

    Vault Disney Programming is Back.....On TCM?

    Don't be alarmed- this isn't the first time Disney property is showcased on the Turner networks and it certainly won't be the last. Before too long, there'll be calls for a Disney Classics cable network, to showcase anything out of Disney's vaults, only time will tell.

    Is Disney Channel better off now than it was in 2006?

    If Disney Channel keeps going down this path, it could be in a lot of trouble, later. Keep in mind, action cartoons will eventually be on the rebound and both Cartoon Network and Nick are set with them. Disney Channel is going to have to get on board with this, when it happens. At the same...

    Is Disney Channel better off now than it was in 2006?

    It's quite clear Disney Channel isn't going to be what you want, but it can be, still being the home of Mickey Mouse and Kermit the Frog, why not also include Spider-Man in that discussion, too. On one Saturday morning, I did happen to see a rebroadcast of Star Wars: Rebels, albeit airing at...

    Article Explains Why Action Cartoons Aren't What They Used To Be

    Forget about nostalgia- demographical stereotyping has caused more harm than good. My comment still stands- come up with something original, not anything toyetic(that will come, later). There are still some unused concepts that haven't seen the production light- look at those and give some...

    Article Explains Why Action Cartoons Aren't What They Used To Be

    Animators need to stop focusing so much on toyetic cartoons and go back to the basics- an original program, based on original ideas. Let the cartoon attract some viewers. If successful, a toyline might be a possibility. Basically, start slowly, then let the product grow its audience- give the...

    Cartoon villains of the 1970's

    I don't think we've ever had this discussion on 1970's cartoon villains, but we might as well get started. Who are your favorite cartoon villains of the 1970's: - Legion of Doom - Ming the Merciless - Queen Nemone - Klingons - Other I'll start a poll, but think about this topic...

    What shows would you like to see on Disney Junior?

    Yes, Disney outright owns Muppet Babies, and as far as the licensed music in the show, Disney owns that, too. It's just a matter of getting clearances for some clips on the show that are owned by other studios, but no worries about Star Wars and Indiana Jones, since they've been cleared. I...

    What makes Scooby Doo so popular?

    Don knew exactly what he was talking about as he was referring to Scooby. Nowadays with Frank Welker voicing Scooby-Doo, his popularity is only continuing. Still, it would be good for him to shy away from supernatural mysteries, at least for a little while and perhaps, be part of a...

    So what animated shows DOES Disney own?

    I know Disney owns the long-running Jim Henson's Muppet Babies as well as Lazer Tag Academy, Piggsburg Pigs and Wild Wesst C.O.W.- Boys of Moo Mesa, produced by Ruby-Spears Productions. I believe Disney practically owns most of the animated programs that were broadcast on ABC's Weekend...
