I don't see what being "positive" have to do with the situation. Regardless of CN's intent, the fact they put it in the one spot where it would be worse-off at is either a sign of them essentially forcing the show the flop or that somebody a bit too incompetent to be running a television company. That's really all there is to it.

Just for shits and giggles, what if Infinity Train was picked up by Nickelodeon?

What if?

Then it'd be uncensored?

Over censored?

Automatically worse?

I think they're referring to how it would be a reversal of what happened with Adventure Time, yes?

Oh God! Natural light!

If it was picked up by Nick? It'd be shown for about 6 or 7 episodes, maybe a season, then relegated to Nicktoons and made to die off.

Sorry to be like, so pessimistic, but that's what Nick does with cartoons it can't (or won't) market.

Please tell me that schedule is a parody. And I dont mean it for IT but rather, the loooong Teen Titans marathon after it. I dont hate that show but God people REALLY werent kidding when they said the show is aired to the point of insanity.

Never was there a show on CN aired as much as TTG...thas sad.

Their schedule is bunk.

[up]More importantly we KNOW their scheduling is bunk. We've heard it from various people in this board, several times. We get it. Now could you guys please shut up about scheduling every time Cartoon Network schedules a show in a way even remotely funky? And while we're at it, also stop bringing up Teen Titans Go as well? It's starting to get beyond annoying at this point.

If CN does pick Infinity Train up (which I still have high hopes for, regardless of the weird pilot airing thing), I still think it'll only be as a miniseries. Over the Garden Wall made them a lot of cash, but they haven't had a big success with another miniseries outside of Stakes, and that was a miniseries of an already existing property. I don't think anyone gave a shit about Long Live the Royals (which is apparently getting its own full series), and CN's continued bungling of Adventure Time resulted in lack of advertising for the Islands miniseries and the whole thing being released on DVD before it even aired on TV.

Unless they're just that stupid, I think they need this.

Have you any dreams you'd like to sell?

I think the series would work best on CN, considering Adventure time is ending, but then again, They may ditch this simply because of its female protagonist, and then it goes straight to Netflix.

I hear you.sad

And frankly the way Infinity Train was handled on TV doesn't give me much hope for how CN handles it either. Like seriously, who the HELL airs a pilot when most people are still asleep?!

But I have to admit, Nick picking up Infinity Train would be ironic.

All we can hope is that enough people who knew ahead of time actually woke up at 6 to watch it. But I that doubt approx. 1 million people would be solely enough to greenlight a show, though I'm no expert.

Well, thank God for Catchup TV. The pilot was AWESOME but average. Very stupid for CN to air it so early ON SATURDAY!

That would be wonderful. Miniseries are the best format for Cartoon Network shows. They always have the best pacing.

Loves feel-good animation a whole lot.
