Jesus, this network sure went to hell. Last I checked, cartoon network only aired Cartoons.

They've been doing this movie shit for awhile now. It's really annoying that they show real movies on a cartoon network. Buy the rights to Balto and the Looney Tunes movies if you need shit to play.

Or All Dogs Go to Heaven. Or the Man called Flintstone. ANYTHING would be better. Hell, even go with Rock'a'Doodle. At least it has animated characters wrapped around real people.

The problem with Cartoon Network is that they're doing almost entirely all in house shows now. They rarely even show the good Dexters, Samuari Jack or the Powerpuff Girls. It's all new stuff. Some of it's ok like Camp Lazlo and Foster's but it's most crap like the Eds show.
Even Adult Swim has fallen apart. The new Birdman's were awful and all the new shows are trying to push some liberal political point in all of them. Minus Stroker and Hoop all of the new comedy shows have sucked.

All the new comedy shows have sucked? Cool... then, technically, that would mean you agree that "American Dad" sucks! Then you're okay with me, Doggie!
In their defense, they've played "Balto", the old "Buggs Bunny Movies" and other stuff over the years. They simply must have run out of cartoon movies.
Rumor is that new "Justice League Unlimited" episodes will be airing this weekend. But yeah....as soon as they air their remaining cache of those, I'll probably never tune into the channel again. The focus is on their in-house stuff and anime. I don't get their "Boomerang" sister channel, but that has alot of the old cartoons that they were known for.

I hate American Dad. It's just Family Guy lite and all it's done has watered down Family Guy to the point where I don't like it as much. Also political shows are awful. It's outdated after a month.
The Boondocks is equally as awful. I used to like the comic strip until the creator just decided to turn it into his own little political soapbox. The shows just too topical and the art style is too loud for the type of show it is.

Oh yeah, I was fucking pissed that they went entirely inhouse on Christmas specials this year. Boomerang had most but not all.
I WANT THE TROLL PRINCE ON TV DAMN IT!!!!
EDIT: Toon Disney equally pisses me off. They have room for the Power Rangers and Digimon but no room for Goof Troop, Darkwing Duck or Ducktales?
