Who watches Cartoon Network Cartoons?

**Dryr** · 2011-08-13 21:34

I don't have cable. I have been interested enough to watch a couple of series anyways.

Batman: the Brave and the Bold: Season one was pretty good. Lots of secondary heroes given the spotlight. Season two has felt like repeats with the same heroes over and over, but Bats is voiced by this guy (from Drew Carey):

While sitting through season two, I saw ads for a show called Sym-Bionic Titan. It isn't always great, but features the voice of this guy:

(from sarah silverman program and that magazine sitcom starring a red-head and the dad from veronica mars) and sometimes this guy:

and I think this guy: http://t0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:A...p6CyNZTZb2prlA

I haven't finished the first season yet, but so far they have included bits from Die Hard and one-liners such as "Jock, referring to the male apparatus support."

Again, never having had cable I have been finding alternate means to see adult swim programs, but the regular Y7 stuff seems to be veering toward Pixar-quality humor as well.

Has anyone else found some CN shows that "adults" might also find entertaining? BTW, I'm going completely off of voice recognition, not credits, possibly wrong on voice actors.

The Last Airbender. Though I'm not sure if it airs anymore. and wait. i think thats nickelodeon
If you're including Adult Swim, I can name a few good/decent shows.

And how dare you not know who Brian Posehn's name!

Check out Adventure Time on CN.

It isn't insulting to older crowds and you usually get a fair share of laughs from it.

**Haiko** · 2011-08-13 21:56

Regular Show and for people who don't like it fu!

I HAVE seen all of the airbender cartoons and, after waiting to see it on BLU, I was in compete agreement with the Razzie nominations worst film of the year. Even the actors I like, I often forget names, sorry!

I'm still salty over Titan being canceled.

**Ragnell** · 2011-08-13 22:03

CN isnt much of what it once was

They gave a lame 'it didn't sell toys' excuse. The show was good enough in it's own right to not NEED toy sales to promote it. Everything now days seems to be only made to push toy sales. Sad to see a good cartoon like that get shit on because of that.

As for cartoons are you talking about daily stuff that comes on normal CN and not Adult Swim? I can name a few I watch regularly.

Adventure Time
Regular Show
The Amazing World of Gumball
The Looney Tunes Show

Besides the shit that comes on AS, those are the ones I keep up with now. Oh and Young Justice too, but it's on hiatus for a couple months now.

They don't make shows on Cartoon Network for children anymore. Adult Swim starts at like 7 now.

Nowadays?
TV shows were only made to push toys back in the day. Literally every t.v. show.

**Dmitry** · 2011-08-14 06:11

I quit keeping up with CN shows after Flapjack got cancelled. Been wanting to check out Adventure Time for a while now but haven't had the time.

I'm too old. I watch Teletoon Retro. G.I.Joe, Reboot, Thundercats, and Transformers.

Someone needs to watch that Freakazoid episode where he explains how cartoons can be Toyetic.

**Lebzile** · 2011-08-14 18:30

Freakazoid was the best cartoon back in the day. Used to watch that and Animaniacs religiously.

I agree with this. I used to love watching CN, back when Johnny Bravo, Dexter and the others were considered its own "unique" content, but its been years since I took the network seriously. I am a fan of the Venture Bros, though.

For real. That was pretty much CN's golden age. What little of Sym-Biotic Titan I have seen so far is crazy though. (excluding that Booty Quake clip, srsly)

They just need to shut down CN and give Genndy Tartakovsky and Craig McCracken their own network.

Also, Toonami.
