IIRC, Cartoon Network was also the first ever channel of it's kind to focus entirely on airing cartoons.

This probably isn't truly the end for CN yet, but it's definitely a sort of end of an era.

 

[Z25]

What is going on with Cartoon Network is a bummer but for the longest time I can't push myself to watch the channel anymore because all they pretty much play now is The Amazing World of Gumball and Teens Titans Go and I can't stand either of those shows.

Damn, TAWOG has brilliant commentary though:

 

[Shroob]

Wait, what happened to Cartoon Network? Out of the loop.

Wait, what happened to Cartoon Network? Out of the loop.

Cartoon Network Studios is being merged with Warner Bros. Studios, in other words, all but done for.

 

[TheMightyP]

Cartoon Network isn't gone but Cartoon Network Studios however is actually done for with the merger. A bunch of employees got laid off.

Adult Swim is probably in danger too.

CNN Studios may still be fine:

So wait, what were the lay offs for then?

Capitalism.

Previously unshared versions of an old Ryu drawing. Made the BG the SSF2 Palette instead of the normal Sunset one.

Sounds like CN Studios will be merged into the WB Animation, I know other stuff is also going on at WB too, but that one guy is the biggest bag fumbler I've heard of this year.

 

[TheMightyP]

How could they do this?

 

[CannonStreak]

Check this out, guys.

Don't worry, because on January 24th, Apple Computer will introduce Macintosh, and you will see why 1984 won't be like 1984.

Ok but seriously, the last one was a decade ago

Smash Community Character Corral Part 2

For this section of the forum, please answer the questions based on your opinion on the depicted character's likelihood. A ranking of 1 would be like "this has almost no chance of actually happening", while a ranking of 10 would be "this is almost guaranteed to show up in the next game". If you...

Still taking poll responses for the current poll. Figured I would bump it here just in case anyone missed it.

 

[Hadokeyblade]

Until proven otherwise i'm going to assume Smiling friends was cancelled because of all the layoffs.

I miss villians just being evil as **** just because they can.

Not sure, could be two things.

1) these rumors were wrong and put out as a a scare tactic by people who want to make the situation worse or actually thought they were true.

2) might be they laid off certain employees across multiple studios, but not with the intent of shutting down those studios. As much as I hate to say it, could totally be them removing more racial diversity from the sounds of things, but I hope not.

It’s already confirmed for season 2 and the Brazil special aired right around when Discovery stepped in. I’m guessing it’s still being worked on because of how big of a success it was.

 

[KingofPhantoms]

You know, in hindsight, I'm surprised that Luigi's letters for help aren't more of a meme.

I can tell you it's not 1 because some former workers at CN confirmed it

 

[Wario Bros.]

I think Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle doesn't like my Split Pad Pro Joy-Cons.

Game keeps pausing to reassure a connection with them almost all the time.

What were everyone's favorite CN shows?

Mine were Courage the Cowardly Dog and The Regular Show. No others IMO stood out to those two.

Discounting the FreshTV imports, probably Ed, Edd n' Eddy.

Counting them...c'mon. You all know.

Ed, Edd n Eddy and The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy for me.

Regular show, Gumball, PPG, Fosters, Chowder, Ben 10, Adventure Time when it was good, Steven Universe when it was good, and Total Drama were all standouts.

Chowder and Regular Show my GOATs.

I also enjoyed Courage, Flapjack, Adventure Time when it was actually good, Steven Universe before it on a year-long hiatus, Dexter's Lab, and Tom and Jerry.

Well, Bowser is rumored to sing, so there's that.

Leave.

Only if we can also admit that Sonic Lost World is actually really good.

ZAVOK is the best Sonic character.

The Pokemon cycle is working

The Sonic Cycle just needs to get to it's next phase and then the natural order will be preserved

cough cough

Forces was pretty okay.

Sonic Lost World is a below average New Super Mario Bros game.

 

[Knight Dude]

I skipped out on every Pokemon game after Sun and Moon, so I've no real strong opinions one way or the other. But since it's been like 4 or 5 years, I might jump back for this next one.

I do appreciate you being Lost World"s strongest warrior but unfortunately the Sonic Cycle is still stuck on Unleashed so nobody will agree with you sadly
