*grumbles* Hate CN Programming

To be honest I haven't watched TV in months. I watch anime online but my tv beside the computer sits there unused. CN started going downhill when they destroyed Adult Swim.
I haven't watched CN since Flapjack ended.

Their Friday night block is pretty good. Starting at 7pm with Young Justice, Ben 10: Ultimate Alien, Star Wars: The Clone Wars (which has been very solid thus far this season) and Generator Rex. I'd recommend it. Was wondering when they'd moved Symbiotic Titan to...also a good show.

And hey, when did Symbionic Titan start up again? And on a Wednesday? Care to advertise guys, I thought the season was over after the run in on the GG floating base.

i watch CN all the time, but i really dislike symbionic titan, young justice, ben10, and extremely hateful towards star wars clone wars (its terribly CGI, and the storyline just does not match what i know of the star wars storyline around that time)
so i pretty much hate the entire friday lineup, overall though CN and AS dont have that bad of shows
Symbiotic Titan is on 7pm PST on Wednesdays.
digging the other shows so far when I can catch them... CN needs to get its own online / hulu component.

In fact I've gotten to the point where I don't even exactly know when most shows actually "air" because I just watch whatever's recorded whenever I have time to watch something. Like air conditioning and automatic transmissions I can't really imagine life without TiVo now.

Agreed. I used to miss my favorite shows all the time until I got the DVR version of my Directv receiver. So much better than any of the old style recorders since it does automatically adjust to schedule changes and knows if it's an old or new episode.

CN started going downhill for me when it started calling itself "CN".... Honestly, IMO cartoons and animation started going down when Spongebob got popular.|

I think "technically" it's still Cartoon Network, but from what I've seen lately all you ever see is "CN". Probably because they started running live-action shows. Kinda like how Sci-Fi became Sy.....Sy....S....y.....I can't even say it. Anyway, they changed their name so they could show non-science fiction stuff and not get a crapload of hate mail. |

We just coded it on a simple X-currentDate formula, so it nerfs itself automatically. -Babs on Accuracy Nerfs
Over 3 years, 1 - 50, whole lotta alt's, still having fun.
I have to say though, I like Young Justice and as far as Adult Swim goes I love the Venture Bros and Robot Chicken is still pretty good. But anything thats live action, Delocated, Tim and Eric, Childrens hosp, ect, ect, re just turrible. Incidentally, the new Transformers Prime on the Hub is not to shabby either.

Thanks to lack of scrubbing of Youtube I did get to see the two Symbionic Titan episodes I missed. Both were good as was this week's.

I think CN plays their full eps a full week after the live airing.

Agreed, especially with The Venture Bros...what more of a reason do you need to watch CN? Between The Venture Bros and FX's Archer, you have all your cartoony comedy cravings filled.

Archer is basically Frisky Dingo Season 3+. Only without Xander, the Xticles, Killface, Simon, etc. Shame that [as] didn't renew FD for a real third season and that 70/30 closed down.
So, has anyone caught the last two eps of Symbionic Titan and Generator Rex? Or, were most of you like me and missed them due to a)not seeing any notice that new eps had started back up and b)moving Titan to Wednesday nights?
*sighs* After just getting caught up on all the eps that aired last year, I was hoping I'd catch when the new ones were starting up, but now I've missed two eps of each, and CN has a habit of not replaying these shows, so I'm basically out of luck I think (unless I go find them "out there", but I haven't done that in ages and really don't feel like it). Anyone else miss these eps (or catch them)?
