Boomerang International News and Discussion Thread 5.0

I see. Mainly because they barely made new promos for Cartoonito so I can see that being the reason.

@Daffyrocks Though I have to say this "2 promo rule" they kind of had from 2022-2024 doesn't really exist anymore

Cartoonito CEE currently has 5 different promos, which could be better, but there was one time where CN WE had 14 different promos

Obviously this isn't always the case, but the situation definitely improved

 

[Francisque]

Back then CN and Boomerang CEE weren't limited to the number of promos they aired, until now, they showed as many as possible in the same period. The Jelly Jamm and Bananas in Pyjamas 2011 promos (from the then Cartoonito block) kept airing for three years straight almost

They still aren't limited to promos, in terms of laws (advertising is where there are limits) : -) .

But I see you probably refer to what they decide to air, instead (self regulation)
I think Romanian ads have increased over time, making fillers and long promos unnecessary

There used to be a time period earlier this year when both aired just 2 promos on the playout.

Exactly like I said this isn't always the case, but especially on Cartoonito I feel like they're trying to make it feel more alive, which I appreciate

 

[Markus]

In recent weeks, yes Cartoonito has been more alive. Moreso because they got a new show which is rare so they don't ditch the channel too quickly.

I'm realizing that boomerang Africa had many acquired content over the years more than most other feeds stuff like Rabbids Invasion and Dino Ranch for example very unique feed for sure

Back then, Boomerang CEE made for Cartoonito promos of mainly the new premieres they were having. Mostly limited to those, with rarely generic promos (they did that for Lazytown actually)

Yeah, I was referring to the channel itself choosing the amount of promos they air in just one day or so

Looks like I found the exact date when Boomerang joined the first ever Romanian DTH provider, Max TV - it's 24.06.2005:

Max TV on Sirius 2 at 4.8°E - LyngSat

Then I don't understand why they aired some promos for years. Probably just for the sake of promo variety they preferred. Of course I knew about the premiere promos. Wouldn't make sense to not promote the most important things on TV.

Boomerang UK continuity from November 14, 2004.

This isn't a recent upload and was already posted here.

@Markus Oh, right. It originated on the first international thread, though Moleoman got the date wrong as in April 2005 when the video was from November 2004 but apologies for not realising it until you pointed me out on that.

Boomerang Mexico Spain continuities from ca. 2005 - featuring up next bumpers for "Scooby-Doo" and "The Flintstones" and "Duck Dodgers" promo (using clips from Latin American Spanish dub, as for some reason Warner Bros. never bothered to make European Spanish dub for certain shows at the time):

I remember very little of Boomerang Spain when I had bootleg satellite in 2006, Spanish uniqueness called and they thought that having only the B as the bug was OK.
