Bringing lesser-known characters like Blue Beetle for the first time in animation is also good news for those who doubt that this will be Justice League 2.
Godzilla: The Series: "What? A cartoon version of the American Godzilla movie? This is going to su- Is he fighting other monsters? Atomic breath?! Holy crap, this is gonna be awesome!"
Still images of the character designs showed up on the internet long before it premiered, which was met with near universal disdain. Then at Comic-Con they showed the opening sequence (later cut down in length) that showed those designs in motion along with a cool updating of the original theme. What was proven is that this show has people Running the Asylum, with more Mythology Gags than can barely be contained on one location.
In particular when fans spotted a glimpse of the dinobots!!
"Turtles Forever? Sounds like it's gonna be a bad movi- Wait a second, are those the 1987 Turtles? Awesome!" is probably what many a fan said when they found out it's a crossover.
And the fact movie favorites Tokka and Rahzar are also making an appearance as well.
Speaking of Cartoon Network, the news that Samurai Jack will finally see a proper ending in the form of a theatrical film after CN left it lying in the dust. The movie will be produced by J. J. Abrams.
And for Generator Rex in particular, there are four words that sum it up: "Great. Breach is back."
So the Nood era finally came to Latin America...Wait, they're Toonix now? Better music? Individual bumpers? Latin America gets all the fun indeed! Wow!
They still suck. Some cartoons are really stupid and are nothing compared to good old 90sCartoon Network. What's that? A new channel? What's its name? Tooncast? Oh, well, if we didn't already have enough with Boomerang and its sucky soap oper— WHAT?! They host all the 90s cartoons? EVEN THE ADS?! And they have Dexter's Laboratory?! *Squee**
Some fans were worried that the new expanded Justice League roster in Unlimited would make it impossible to spotlight some of the lesser characters. And then The Question showed up.
A Birds of Prey episode of Justice League featuring The Question with pieces taken from the excellent Batman/Huntress: Cry for Blood miniseries is already pretty cool. But add Glenn Shadix as the giant, albino mobster and Gail Simone writing the script, and you're almost perfect. And then it referenced Garth Ennis's Hitman.
And then there was the episode where they fight a nanotech space probe by using a BFG in an episode written by Warren Ellis with John C McGinley as The Atom.
On a similar note, after the apparent 'death' of the Teen Titans series, there was much outcry in the fandom for another season that might be more true to the team's origins, an- Young Justice is a series now?!?! With Greg Weisman at the helm too?! SWEET!!!
And from that show itself, we have Bruce Greenwood as Batman again, along with several producers from the same direct to DVD masterpiece. Then the designer of costumes from Crisis on Two Earths is attached to the series, to much approval.
As of now people are really going wild with the official announcement. An Avatar sequel featuring the next avatar as a female protagonist set in a Steampunk city being taught airbending by Aang's son; Most people were pleased.
Also, the number of episodes has been expanded from 12 to 26. Let the rejoicing begin!
More breaking news: A new Avatar comic book has been announced following the breakout success of the artbook. Apparently it will contain comics following the Gaang's postwar adventures! Mere hours after this was announced, fan communities all across the Internet exploded with excitement.
The changes in fashion were cautiously accepted as realistic progression considering how much fashion trends varied widely in real life. Then, someone showed up wearing a fedora.
A newMy Little Pony series? Well considering how lame the latest couple of adpations has been it probably isn't going to be anything specia — wait, Lauren Faust is in charge of it?!?
A second season is coming out? AND THEY ASKED WEIRD AL YANKOVIC TO VOICE ACT??? FUCK YES
A new My Little Pony promo? Meh, just some girly crap because Hasbro and The Hub just can't acknowledge the older fa- wait...is this a parody of "California Girls"? That's way out of the target demographics range. I wonder if they do know? Nah, probably no-WAIT!? Did he just say "bronies", and "DJ PON-3"!!!!?? Hasbro and the Hub also sent a letter to Equestria Daily!? Plus they also clarified about when the spot will premiere!!?? YES!!! WE, THE BRONIES, ARE KNOWN!! BROHOOFS TO HASBRO AND THE HUB!! MAJOR BROHOOFS!!!
Hmm. The internet is obsessed with My Little Pony. Too bad it's not i- Wait, it's showing on Boomerang in the UK? Maybe one episode...
Season 2 will be more appealing to specifically bronies? Sign me up.
ALRIGHT, JohndeLancie is going to be playing a VILLAIN. And he is playing a god-like trickster who takes joy in personally messing with people? Approval.
For fans of the regular My Little Pony the addition of colts and stallions was this, since G3 infamously lacked them. As was going back to action based plots and having antagonists. The colors are similar to G1 too. What probably made fans most happy was the inclusion of Unipegs in canon.
Princess Luna, a character who got one minute of screen time and one line of dialogue in the second episode, not only returning after a year-long absence, but also getting her own focus episode. This was especially important since her absence had created her own fanbase.
What's that? Rainbow Dash refers to the grey pegasus as "Derpy"? She has a voice?!?!? And the fanbase goes BATSHIT FUCKING INSANE.See for yourself.*
but people complained about the seemingly mentally impaired pony and demand that it be edited...there were no more brohooves
The cherry on top of the whole season is DJ PON-3 appearing again in the finale, and finally shows of her eyes!!!
Man, this show is awesome, but the toys are lame! I don't think they'll ever make anything worth— HOLY SHIT, TOYS OF NIGHTMARE MOON, TRIXIE, ZECORA, LYRA, AND DJ PON-3?!
Speaking of, I wonder what happened to those rumors of a revival series in the works. Ah, well, guess they were just tha- What's this? Emails from the creators? Confirmation of a remake in the works? OH PLEASE OH PLEASE OH PLEASE LET THIS NOT BE A HOAX!
Yeah, but what other cartoons are in that Warner archive collection? Josie and the Pussycats in Outer Space? Give me a break! You're wasting good plastic on the Dukes of Hazzard cartoon? Wait... the Dragon's Lair cartoon? Maybe... The Pirates of Dark Water?? THE SUPERSTARS 10 MOVIES THEY NEVER AIR ON BOOMERANG????!!!!! HERE'S MY CREDIT CARD!!!!!
Transformers Prime. Well, it looks kind of dumb. Huh? Steve Blum is Starscream? That's cool but no one can replace Chri- Jeffery Combs is Ratchet?! Still neat but......Dwayne Johnson is Cliffjumper! Cool! Maybe I'll give it a shot if it comes on, but.....OH MY LORD!!! FRANK WELKER AND PETER CULLEN ARE BACK!!! I AM SO WATCHING THIS!!!
The Dinobots are slated to appear at some point during Season 2.
It's been so long since Disney aired their oldcartoons...hey, IS THAT 101 DALMATIANS: THE SERIES ON THE DISNEY CHANNEL!? WE MIGHT BE SAVED!
Similarly, Nick has announced they're going to air their entire 90s lineup.
Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island. The trailers on Cartoon Network and in the Warner videos sparked interest. The dark, forboding opener of a castle in a thunderstorm - meh, seen it before. Then a monster rips open doors to reveal...Fred, Velma and Daphne - together for the first time in more than 15 years. Thirty seconds later, that oh so beautiful theme song plays - and there was no doubt the Dork Age was over and Scooby Doo was BACK.
Nearly 5 years after its cancellation Futurama was revived in the form of 4 DVD movies. When an entire new series was announced not long after (to air on Comedy Central, no less, and not on the dreaded Fox), the reaction was vastly enthusiastic. Until Fox announced that they were looking for replacements for the original voice cast. They soon changed their mind. Rumor has it the announcement was just a move in the salary negotiation.
Man, it sucks that the last season of The Boondocks was the end. I'll go ahead and turn on the Ricky Smiley radio show...oh, hey, that's Granddad! That's pretty nea— DID HE JUST SAY AARON MCGRUDER IS WORKING ON SEASON 4? HELL YES!!!
There's a new Pound Puppies cartoon on The Hub? Meh, I'm probably not going to watch it- wait - created by Paul and Joe? I'm going to have to check this out.
Oh geez, The Ren & Stimpy Show is back? Let me guess, it's more Bob Camp and Games Studio quality...WAIT JOHN K IS FINALLY RETURNING AND ALLOWED TO WORK ON HIS SHOW AGAIN FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 13 YEARS?! AND IT'S ACTUALLY A GROWN UP VERSION OF THE SHOW FOR ALL OF THE ORIGINAL FANS TO COMPLETE WITH EDGY CONTENT LIKE SOUTH PARK AND FAMILY GUY? YES YES YES!
Hey look, the title for the second season premiere leaked online..."The Private War of Dr. Doom"? Sounds awesome!
It looks like Carol Danvers has begun her transformation into Ms. Marvel, but I wonder how often we'll see her next seas-she'll actually join the Avengers? My wish came true!
Oh sweet, a trailer for season 2! Hey, is that Vision? And Super-Skrull? And Red Hulk?!? And Black Panther's classic Badass Cape? This is gonna be mind-numbingly awesome.
Let's check out the synopses for April's episodes. It's been 10 months since the first season finale, so they better not disappoint. On Easter, the Avengers will team up with...War Machine? Finally! Then at the end of the month, an adaptation of "To Steal an Ant-Man"? I wonder if this means we'll see Scott Lang. (They did.)
And then, this little screenshot appeared. The complete Fantastic Four, Spider-Man (after reportedly suffering from some sort of Spider-Ban for several years), Luke Cage, and Iron Fist! And that might not be all of them!
Yet anotherSpider-Man show? Like it's ever gonna top Spectacular Spider-Man—Wait,Paul Dini is working on it? Things might be looking up...
Also, Man of Action Studios (the guys who created Ben 10 and Generator Rex) will also be part of the creative team. These two announcements have helped to win more than a few fans that were on the fence.
Ahem. Let me rephrase that: TEEN TITANS is coming back? With the ORIGINAL VOICE ACTORS? Awesome, but they'll only be a couple minutes...Greg Cipes confirmed that there is a possibility for SEASON SIX? AHHH!!
After promoting the hell out of them, Dude, What Would Happen? and Destroy Build DestroyARE FINALLY GONE!!!*
hold your cries of yays and yepees because they came out with another live action show
Ugh, Cartoon Network's celebrating their 20th anniversary and those live-action-loving jackasses are going to do nothing about the old sho—wait did Andy Merill say they might rebootCartoon Planet?!?!? (Go to 5:54 for proof!)
Greater news, Cartoon Network will host a Friday night block ofclassicshosted by Brak and Zorak!OUR PRAYERS HAVE FINALLY BEEN ANSWERED!!! Starts March 30th at 8pm. And they're bringing back I Am Weasel and EVIL. CON. CARNE.
Adding to that, even though it was an April Fools joke, Adult Swim had a block of TOONAMI! MORE PRAYERS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED! EVEN IF ONLY FOR ONE NIGHT!
Daria was one of the few really good shows MTV released. Figures that they'll treat it like crap... Wait, a DVD release, after ten years? FINALLY!
Superman VS The Elite: "A solo Superman movie—and one that's not about Supermandying again?! It's based on "What's So Funny About Truth, Justice & the American Way?" George Newbern is back as Superman?! This should be good!"
The new Disney Junior channel has just launched and it contains classic shows like Jungle Cubs, Timon & Pumbaa, and The Little Mermaid, as well as old Playhouse Disney favorites like Rolie Polie Olie, Stanley and Jojo' s Circus.
No. No they're not. Though they are airing Stanley, a program by the same company and many of the same people, which went off around the time that Otter did.
When CBeebies changed their extremely popular preschool-targeted series Waybuloo by shortening the length, adding a narrator, and eliminating the yogo segments (yogo being a gentle form of yoga), the reaction was predictable and immediate. Parents took to the BBC's message boards in droves complaining that neither they nor their children liked the new format. The BBC restored the program the very next, resulting in happy shouts of "Buloo!" from children. (On the program, when the characters reach a state of great contentedness, they shout "Buloo!" and float in the air.)
