What I hate about cartoon network is that recently they had a horrible line up and added terrible cartoons.

1) Too many Scooby doo series, is one after another and never stop icon_12.gif
2) Not a unique network any more, brought in sorry cartoons from the basic channels
a)Mucha Lucha
b)Yugioh (it can be ok at times)
c)Pokemon got I hate this cartoon

Any one agree or have something else to had?

It annoys me that when they show Looney Tunes cartoons on Boomerang they're almost always by Chuck Jones.
Don't get me wrong, I love Chuck Jones but he's nowhere near as good as Bob Clampett or Tex Avery.

I don't. As crappy as its daytime shows are, it is responsible for adult swim, which has some of the best shows anywhere on TV.

That they canceled Cow and Chicken, I Am Weasel, Cartoon Cartoon Show (formerly World Primere Toons or What a Cartoon!), Dexter's Lab and Courage the Cowardly Dog.

That they barely show classic cartoons anymore.

Codename: Kids Next Door

That they no longer show Tiny Toons, Animaniacs, Pinky and the Brain, Freakazoid (I think) or Road Rovers

I really hate CN, actually. The only shows I watch anymore are Billy and Mandy and the PowerPuff Girls. Teen Titans and Justice League I just ain't into, and I have all of Family Guy (the old eps.) and Futurama on DVD.

The thing I hate most about CN is that they show "The Cramp Twins" way too much. By which I mean, they show "The Cramp Twins" at all.

Also, whoever created "Mucha Lucha" needs to be beaten to death with a Speedy Gonzales doll for creating the most offensive thing on TV this side of "The Proud Family".

Not because of stereotypes, mind you, but because it just plain SUCKS.

Gawd, how many times a day must we see Kids Next Door?? And all this Miguzi stuff now?? What the hell happened to Toonami and the overly-dramatic Gundamn Wing?? And I demand to know where they stuffed Freakazoid! Blah blah blah *insert more rants here*

And there's also the raping of Dexter's Lab. For shame!

My biggest complaint against CN is that they don't have enough programming.  To broadcast 13 episodes of a show and call it a "season" is a joke.  This leads to too many reruns.

My second complaint is how CN has shifted most of the old, classic animation to Boomerang or other channels.  There should be a place on CN for the classics.  After all, we'll all be laughing at Bugs Bunny when Mucha Lucha is forgotten.

Because they keep shows like The Cramp Twins adn Courage, but cancel Samurai jack

Because their kids shows are too kiddy. They need more shows like Teen Titans, Clone Wars, and Justice League

On the plus side:

They are responsible for Adult Swim

They are far better than Nickelodeon

And they'll play a show twice during the day, when there aren't a lot of episodes to replay.  Like KND or TT, where there's a small amount of episodes, but are on almost constantly.

you know, for all the complaints about Codename: Kids Next door, there is one segment in one of their eps that everyone who got 'The Animatrix' should watch. That's the "A.R.C.H.I.V.E" part of this ep. Tuned the tv to watch Adult swim, turned off the tv while it was still set to CN, woke up, turned on the TV, and saw that. Possibly the best parody of anything involving 'The Matrix.' I'm still stunned they were able to get away with it.

I loved Samurai Jack, I didn't even realized they cancelled it, that is a damned shame. I have no problem with most of the shows, not that they particularly interest me, but the fact that they kick the good shows off the air, and replace it with this shit. What the fuck is with the lines around the whole body, it makes them look like they're moving 24/7 like they're on crack, kinda like ed edd and eddy.

The thing though, that really pisses me off, is the new Dexter's lab, I loved the show, until they molested it.

ROAD ROVERS! That was it! I loved that show! Why the fu%k did they have to cancel that!? The little psycho dog in the straight jacket. God dammit CN. I hate everything on there except the old Scooby's, CKND (Not that bad), Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends (The only show that I really like on CN), and any old show. I also miss the shorties (I think it was called) Like the Jabajar song. WHY!!!???

Courage, Cramp Twins and KId's Next Door all suck, and the Network Executives who allowed them in should be anal raped by Pol-Pot, Hitler and Ronald Reagon. Give me back Freakazoid dammit!

I caught by little brother watching cramp twins once. I actually sat down and watched for a few seconds and it was about this guy and his retard brother(who sounds like Yancy Fry) dicking around in a junkyard with some kind of rat-like creature. I changed the channel and gave him a stupid slap just for wacthing that kind utter garbage.

If it weren't for them adopting Futurama and Family guy which I respect them for, I would have asked me cable provider to cut off CN.

John Pannozzi- Courage sucks and it isn't original. It's Scooby Doo only the monsters are real and the scared dog who saves the day doesnt have 4 teenagers with him.

No, those are some major differences you pointed out. Courage is very original. Scooby Doo isn't really a show about the paranormal, it's all mystery, and it has a completley different formula. Point out one show that Courage directly mirrors.

Courage is really a much darker show then most anything else out there. 'Cept maybe Invader Zim. Judging by the animation style alone, it doesn't look like it's really for kids.
