Cartoon Network Upfront

...ANNOYING ORANGE? Why would you want to turn that into a television show?!?? You'd might as well make an actual Hypnotoad show!!!

Oh wait. Never mind.

It's a one-hour block, but it's something.

So no new comedy that's original this year, huh?

The only gripe I would have is Level Up.

I THOUGHT CN LEARNED THEIR LESSON FROM LAST TIME!

Okay we DO HAVE A FEW new properties, but none that interests me at all!

This upfront was very Disappointing in my view, all the new shows don't interest me.

Happy F****** 20th ANNIVERSARY. >:(

What bugs me is that Cartoon Network is not doing Prime Time, again. If you don't remember..

Wait. WAIT. I didn't see anything about Mystery Incorporated returning. Or did I miss it? Please tell me I missed it. Why would they just end it on a cliffhanger like that?! I must know how the gang gets back together! What about Fred's parents? NOOOOO!

The only interesting thing that was announced in this years upfronts was Wonder Over Yonder

That's Disney, isn't it?

That's why you shouldn't end your seasons with depressing cliffhangers. If the network screws you up, you're just left with a crappy series finale.

Relax, Mystery Inc is coming back in May. In fact, the season premiere is floating around on the Cartoon Network servers, though the video itself has yet to be ripped from it.

Ah. I have Cartoon Network Latin America, so I wasn't aware of that yet.

Shota yes, but I was referring to all kids channel upfronts

<new seasons of Adventure Time and The Amazing World Of Gumball>

Well, I'm good.

Seriously though, is it sad that that one 30-second commercial was the most fun I've had with Cartoon Network in a while? Gotta remember to tune in tomorrow night, I haven't seen Cartoon Planet since I was little!

Uncle Grandpa looks good

Steven Universe looks feh and Clarence looks blah

Teen Titans Go! looks alright

Beware the Batman and Chima look feh

I've been keeping tabs on Grojband through its production blog and looks not bad (but I have a tolerence for modern day Canadian flash animation)

As long as The Tom and Jerry Show is traditionally drawn I'll be okay with it

Total Drama All Stars looks okay

I've had it hearing about Incredible Douches. Enough with that. Next.

Steven Universe LOOKS LIKE THE BEST THING EVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEROHMYGOD.

What's with the live-action tiger?

..... Skylar who?? Where now?

<insert obligatory Batman show here>

Oh yeah I saw the TV spot for this Lion LEGO show. I KNEW it had to be turned into a series as well as a movie!!! God dammit, LEGO! Stop growing!

Groband? What?

So they take all the contestants from previous shows and give them a crossover. Might be fun. I hope they don't recycle everything for budget reasons, like they do all the time.

......... Powerpuff Girls... Spe— WOAH! WHAT HAPPENED TO THEM!!? THOSE AREN'T THE P— WHAT LOGIC MADE THEM DECIDE TO REDESIGN THE CHARACTERS!?!? Passion Pictures is behind it though, so I guess I'll need to see it for the animation.

ANOTHER STAR W— I'm done reading.

Steven Universe seems like it has potential, but i'll have to see more...

watch at 5:44 and watch at 4:23

I thought my excitement for Steven Universe had already reached max. And then promotional poster happened.

I'm looking forward to the PPG special, if only because I love Kevin Darts artwork and I'm interested to see it in CG.

And that's all I really feel like commenting on.

Really looking forward to Steven Universe and Uncle Grandpa.

Clarence seems...blah. I think I'll need more than that small synopsis to judge it though.

All I know about Incredible Crew is that they decided to spam the airwaves last December with their irritating "Incredible Crew Year's Eve" promo.

Looking forward to the new Total Drama and Grojband. Canadian Flash Animation shows aimed towards tweens seems to be my Guilty Pleasure.

Chima... Isn't one LEGO show enough?

I'm pretty indifferent to the new DC Nation shows, and that's coming from a fan of Teen Titans. I really think the two shows they're replacing were cancelled prematurely, and I don't see why the four can't coexist with one another. Why are we keeping the ikes of Johnny Test and Annoying Orange over two well written action shows?

So the new genderbent Adventure Time episodeis a special now?

Feelings are mixed on the Powerpuff Girls special. I don't see why it needs to be CG, and redesigning them so differently from their original iconic looks seems a bit silly to me. However, PPG was a huge part of my childhood and I'm just really glad they'll be getting new material. Judging by its description, CN seems to really be hyping it up.

(in reference to flash tween shows being a guilty pleasure) Thank Grod I'm not the only one.
