Speaking of AT . distant islands . Obsidian and Wizard city were never aired on CN MENA
Only one episode Distant islands was aired

Wasn't Together Again aired either?

Not only that, but the Gumball "Up Next" bumper on the CEE feed is still using the WE languages.

*Gumball 2025. The 2011 version has the correct languages.

Not only that, but the Gumball "Up Next" bumper on the CEE feed is still using the WE languages. It looks like no one from either the CEE or WE team is actually watching the channel.

you should be lucky actually they actually put a bit more care on the CEE/WE feed than the uk team for CN Africa which cannot be bothered to update some graphics

I’ve been noticing that CN WE actively refuses to air Adventure Time after season 5. On Tuesday, they aired the final four episodes of season 5, then went back to season 1 yesterday. And in a future schedule, they air Billy’s Bucket List, then back to Slumber Party Panic within the same night. I understand why they do this, being that season 6 onwards isn’t as hyper or kiddish compared to the earlier seasons, but I still like most of it. Bit of a shame I can’t lie

Same for CN CEE. In the night slot (21:50 CET) they still only go as far as season 5 in terms of Adventure Time reruns, while in the afternoons (17:15 CET) they are going to a more ridiculous route by only rotating the first two seasons. The latter was also the case for the night airings in the first month since the show officially returned back last Summer, only to give up because of the EMEA management still being sissies about the banned season 6 segments.

And it's even more ridiculous when you think that they are restricting S3-5 to primetime airings because of their more edgy tone, while they could very well treat the rest of the series beyond the same way if they want only older people to see them. Also on the afternoons, I understand that only the the early episodes are aired to go in tone with the upcoming new series as that is basically what the first two seasons were, but they also skip episodes in those daytime showings that they "normally" air at night. They don't even air the S2 finale on the 17:15 CET slot, while other episodes that they initially skipped as well in that daytime slot are now shown since this month or so.

I guess we will NEVER see a proper airing of the full original Adventure Time on the EMEA CN channels. Simple as that.

I have feeling that they don't know they're not airing all of the seasons.

 

[flaboyblast]

I think they do. But they air them to hype up "Side Quests". And for that you don't need later Adventure Time.

 

[[Tails swim]]

Wasn't Together Again aired either?

This also never aired as well . Even after it was dubbed . It was never released to this day

Another CN UK/Europe continuity has spawned up - this time from April 2, 1994 with "Buford Files"/"Galloping Ghost" We'll Return bumper at the beginning:

Reminds me that when the series was still in production, they started censoring references to The Lich when it appeared fine in early showings.

Brick Flick Week launches on CN Africa next week Cartoon Network And Cartoonito Africa Unveils Their Movie Lineup For The School Holidays, Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous S2 Launches On Play Room

well...CN africa dose air all 8 seasons (excluding the finale because Kenya)

 

[Daffyrocks]

They didn't outright censor the character's appearances on CN CEE, but they toned him down considerably and even banned certain episodes that had to do with him (and not only...)

I think they do. But they air them to hype up "Side Quests". And for that you don't need later Adventure Time.

Well, they are specifically using the 17:15 CET afternoon slot to promote the new Side Quests. The late primetime airing is basically a "normal" showing of AT, which they only started for its 15th anniversary last year (most probably, at least). Surprised if they won't ditch the 21:50 CET slot at some point and only air the S1-2 episodes overall in the future (aside Side Quests, which hopefully will get at least a decent treatment as RS Lost Tapes still has and not take it off the line-up).

Speaking of the primetime slot on CN CEE, they basically air the entire seasons 1-5 of the original AT, with NO episode skipped (even the ones banned in 2014 and even "BMO Lost" and "James Baxter The Horse" that never premiered here until now!), for some reason except "Princess Cookie" from season 4. Idk what they see "wrong" in that episode honestly, but they never aired it since the show's return last year

Nearly a full month into the launch of the Spanish track

CN is becoming more childish with all this censorship. They probably want to turn CN to Cartoonito 2.

I wouldn’t be more surprised if CN EMEA’s demo is now kids 2-9, like Cartoonito. Except Cartoonito also includes families, like Boomerang did

 

[Zzman]

dont know if this is a hot take or not but i still dont think CN WE is as "100% perfect" as some people make it out to be same with CN Africa as much as i like that feed I will (and did) admit it does have some problems

 

[zakawer2]

Speaking of Adventure Time, HBO Max in Denmark for some weird reason doesn't have "Daddy's Little Monster", "Princess Potluck" or the final four episodes of season 6, despite the fact that the Danish, Swedish and Norwegian dubs do in fact exist for these episodes (based off of me accessing the Israel and UK versions of HBO Max with a VPN). "Daddy's Little Monster" and "Princess Potluck" also have Finnish dubs too, but not the final four episodes of season 6. Do these exact episodes air on Cartoon Network Western Europe or not?

That said, the Adventure Time episode "Rainy Day Daydream" is currently in a broken state for some bizarre reason on HBO Max in the Nordic countries, constantly alternating between being "available" but unwatchable/undownloadable and being unavailable altogether.

All European markets seem to omit "Princess Cookie", "Card Wars", "Lemonhope Part 1" and "Lemonhope Part 2", and almost all of them fully omit all of the four forbidden season 6 episodes ("Wake Up", "Escape from the Citadel", "The Tower" and "Breezy"). Do the "Card Wars" and "Lemonhope" episodes air on Cartoon Network's linear channel or not?

 

[zQwmy]

@zakawer2 "Card Wars" still actively airs on CN WE and "Lemonhope" used to air until around a year ago.

No one claimed that CN WE is completely perfect. Let's respect different opinions. Just because you don't like it as much, they deserve their flowers because they are in a better state schedulling-wise than 5 years ago. They have AT, RS, SU, the classics, ended shows getting some respect again during the daytime. Clarence, Uncle Grandpa and Bunnicula literally air today as we speak.

But I also admit it's problems. I'm not glazing the feed all the time. The Gumball airtime should be reduced. TTG for example isn't airing too much so I'm fine how they are airing their second biggest show right now.

CEE having at least AT,RS and Clarence
Wouldn't be a harm for TGG or Gumball to be replaced during the weekend with We Bare Bears at least

 

[Markus]

Wouldn't harm them indeed but they are also trying to be too safe just in case because it's a network where also commercials air.
