Btw, Disney XD replaced Jetix in the US?

Because in Latin America that channel recieves a lot (of well deserved) hate for killing Jetix
Yes. Disney XD replaced Toon Disney / Jetix in the US back in 2009. Honestly, I never cared for the rebranding, but I for one would bring back the one that people wanted the most just for the sake of pleasing them.

Never pranked anyone. I don't know where did you get that assumption.
As a piece of advice though, to prank someone, you have to go to the Premium-only Disco Room forum and then go to the Pranking Party sub forum and follow their guidelines. I was once Premium and pranked a friend soooo

Mario Party 10's out?
Cool beans.
Still not that high on my priority list (Mario Kart 8 and KI:U are at the top, MP10 is near the bottom), but still.
Cool beans.

People would be more happy with Good'Ol Fox Kids; that channel along with the first years of Jetix was very beloved and had shows like Beyblade, Shaman King, Ultimate Muscle, Totally Spies, etc. That channel kicked the butt of both Nick and Cartoon Network during its prime.

Ah, I see. You can blame Fox for selling that to Disney in the first place. Or maybe it's just big corporations being too lazy to maintain the same level of quality channels have when being localized for other regions.

The shows you had mentioned were the only good things that Fox Box had done along with the Kirby Right Back at Ya! and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Sorry, but the 2003 show captured the comic's spirit better than the 80's cartoon). Gee, I wish the same thing could be said for One Piece, which was dumbed down with childish dialogue and plenty of ridiculous censorship like this:



And then there was the cringeworthy voice acting (Sanji, why do you sound like a Brooklyn stoner?) that did live up to how good Yugioh and Shaman King's dubbing was. Good thing I've started watching most of the Japanese dub ever since and I had never regret that decision.

I read that CN and Nick were beating FK in ratings in other countries (Im sure it was the opossite in Latin America) so they sold out to Disney who proceeded to **** in that channel

I'm sorry, but that style of censorship is just ridiculous. What were they thinking?

They don't call them 4Kids TV for nothing. Maybe because things like a grown man sucking a lollipop and a guy threatening someone with that "gun" would be considered funny to kids. If you though that was bad, then you should see the poison suction cups that Don Kreig shoots at Luffy. :troll:

Damn straight and their voice acting is godly when it comes to most anime. It's still a coincidence that most of Shonen Jump adaptions had been dubbed by them (One Piece, Dragon Ball, Assassination Classroom, Yu Yu Hakusho, Toriko, ect.) while Viz Media had a select few like Bleach and Naruto .

Really? Fox probably thought Disney would take better ownership of that channel. They also sold one of Saban's companies to them at that time.

I don't want to imagine that, man. I wonder if 4Kids (4Licensing now) STILL licenses TV shows at this point..

2003 TMNT was my show. It was awesome. The newest show is pretty solid too.

I would argue the 4Kids dub of Kirby Right Back at Ya! skirted on so bad it's good territory though.

Congrats! I wish I could find a full-time job...
It's gonna be part time actually, but it's related to my field of study and I gotta start somewhere.

I could probably buy me another Premium down the line...but not with that money, I have a thing that lets me earn cash and deposit it to my PayPal...

Welp, I'd best go to bed. Night~

The opposite happened :p Disney decided that the best for that channel was while removing all of the old programming and replacing it with reruns of Pucca and FOP
Good thing that Nickelodeon became again decent when Jetix died

I have not seen it. Is it really good?
Well, S2's hit a few rough edges, so I fear it might not get renewed again. Only time will tell, though.

If you're into supernatural horror, monsters, Colonial-American history and lore, this show is probably something you'd like. Check out the first few episodes of the first season if you can, see if they really interest you. It's probably better if you try to get into the general premise yourself than have me tell you about it.

That would be the best way to put it since it actually made the show even funnier than it was. Meta Knight's Spanish accent wasn't too far off and sounded pretty close to the original JP voice actor, which made him a bit more quirkier like the rest of the cast. Let's not forget how Dedede's sexy Southern voice stole the show within every scene he speaks (Same goes for making me wish that was his English voice in Smash). Tiff actually sound bit less annoying and more like a bossy Angelica to suit how much of a control freak she was. The only downside is that we didn't get to hear any "Pokemon Speak" from the monsters like in the Japanese version. :laugh:

I'm surprised that channel didn't pull a Nickelodeon Arabia (if you know what I mean) at this rate. And I see.

This brings me to the idea I talked about before. I can make a good drawing in exchange of a user giving me a spare 1 year Premium membership, @ Soul. Soul. -style. Who approves??? :troll:
