Like a dozen episodes of Rob and Big/Fantasy Factory are about the slow creation of that cartoon. It didn't sound very good from the get-go but I can't hate it due to how psyched he is every time it's mentioned.

I saw this show on New Years and I am so amazed this show was made in 2013, seriously a character called Emo Cries, and about Xtream skate boarding kids. It like an executive from the 2004 was frozen an just came out of his coma.

Yeah, the team weren't expecting major hiatuses that pushed spooky season to february. Though the 'season' is going to be eight episodes, afterwards there's an unrelated two-parter where Ben 10 teams up with every alternate version of himself, including the future one, as his biggest enemies try to wipe out all Ben from existence

I think the Celestials put him on trial a few episodes later for rebooting the universe.

I think people give Snyder way too much poo poo he doesn't deserve. While he greenlighted some live action stuff, he's also responsible for CN having worthwhile original programming again. I don't really blame DC Nation on him either because there's a whole convoluted mess of things responsible for that block imploding.

So they just announced that they're making a Dofus movie set to premiere sometime next year. It's no third season of Wakfu but at this point I get super pumped up for anything those guys make.

Also, if you haven't checked out Dofus TV series the movie is based on you're really missing out. The animation is gorgeous and the characters are charming as gently caress.


Edit for movie teaser image:



(Yes, that's what the show actually looks like.)

Even given the aforementioned departure of Stu Snyder, Cartoon Network seems like it's at least trying to innovate. They've announced a mobile network which will feature original 15-second programs, and today announced its upcoming slate. (It's upfront season, but of the major kid cable networks, only Nickelodeon is actually doing a real "upfront" - the rest are going directly to advertisers, a concept CN pioneered last year.) It's a mainly comedy-oriented lineup, but what's there - especially Wabbit and We Bare Bears (which was based on a webcomic) - looks like it could be fun.

Cartoon Network posted:

NEW ORIGINAL AND ACQUIRED PROGRAMMING

OVER THE GARDEN WALL: Headlined by an all-star voice-cast that includes Elijah Wood (Lord of the Rings Trilogy), Collin Dean (The War at Home) and Melanie Lynskey (Two and a Half Men), Over the Garden Wall is Cartoon Network’s first event mini-series, an animated comedy/fantasy story about two brothers, Wirt and Greg, who are trapped in a mysterious world. In this ten-part mini-series, Wirt and Greg must travel across this strange land until they find their way home, aided by a wise old Woodsman who gives them directions and a bluebird named Beatrice. Music plays an important role in the series with a soundtrack full of Americana-influenced original songs. Over The Garden Wall is created by Pat McHale and produced by Cartoon Network Studios.



CLARENCE: From creator Skyler Page and premiering Monday, April 14 at 7 p.m., Clarence is a new, original animated series about an optimistic boy who wants to do everything. Because everything is amazing! Clarence was conceived as part of the prolific shorts development program at Cartoon Network Studios, which has resulted in six original series for the network: Regular Show, Uncle Grandpa, Steven Universe, Clarence, Over the Garden Wall and We Bare Bears.

WE BARE BEARS: We Bare Bears is a comedy about three bear siblings, named Grizzly, Panda and Ice Bear. Each episode follows their awkward attempts at assimilating into human society, whether they’re looking for food, trying to make human friends, or scheming to become internet famous. Whatever the situation, it’s obvious that being a bear in the civilized, modern world is tough—but at least they have each other. Created by Annie Award-winner Daniel Chong (Toy Story of Terror!), We Bare Bears is produced by Cartoon Network Studios.



THE TOM AND JERRY SHOW: The iconic cat and mouse rivals are back in The Tom and Jerry Show, a new, fresh take on the classic series. Preserving the look, characters and sensibility of the original, the all-new series shines a brightly colored, high-definition lens on the madcap slapstick and never-ending battle that has made Tom and Jerry two of the most beloved characters of all time. The Tom and Jerry Show is produced by Warner Bros. Animation and will premiere Wednesday, April 9 at 5:30 p.m.

BE COOL SCOOBY-DOO!: Be Cool Scooby-Doo! is an all-new 22-minute animated comedy series from Warner Bros. Animation. The Scooby gang is back with a modern comedic twist on the beloved classic. With high school over and one last summer to live it up, the gang hits the road in the Mystery Machine, chasing fun and adventure. But monsters and mayhem keep getting in the way.



WABBIT: A LOONEY TUNES PRODUCTION: The hilarious, heroic and mischievous Bugs Bunny you love is back! From Warner Bros. Animation, Bugs stars in an all-new series consisting of comedic shorts that find the iconic carrot-loving rabbit matching wits against (and getting the best of) classic characters like Yosemite Sam and Wile E. Coyote. Along the way, Bugs will encounter brand-new foes…and he’ll have some help from new friends like Bigfoot and Squeaks the squirrel.



LEGOŽ NINJAGO: Masters of Spinjitzu: Continuing its robust partnership with The LEGO Group, Cartoon Network will re-introduce viewers to the awesome world of NINJAGO: Masters of Spinjitzu with six new half-hour animated specials in 2014, followed by all-new episodes of the highly popular series slated for 2015.

SONIC BOOM™: Sonic the Hedgehog has been one of the world’s biggest gaming icons for over 20 years and this year a new branch of the Sonic universe debuts, entitled Sonic Boom™. With a new look for Sonic and friends, the franchise’s first-ever CG animated television series, an action-packed comedy adventure, will premiere on Cartoon Network with support from an extensive video game release of the same name. The Sonic Boom television series, coproduced by SEGAŽ of America, Inc. and OuiDO! Productions, will debut on Cartoon Network in the 2014/2015 season.

TOTAL DRAMA: PAHKITEW ISLAND: All-new island! All-new cast! Same old disregard for human safety! The Total Drama series returns as Chris and Chef put the newest generation of contestants through the craziest challenges yet—all for a chance to win one million dollars! Total Drama Island is produced by Fresh TV Inc.

NUMB CHUCKS: Woodchuck brothers Dilweed and Fungus didn’t always see themselves as mystical Kung Fu saviors until they stumbled upon an infomercial featuring mega legend Woodchuck Morris’ mullet-fueled motivational kung-fu video “The Way of the Chuck!” With an endless supply of confidence but a limited supply of brain cells, and countless hours of watching the video, this dimwitted duo transmorph-ified into THE NUMB CHUCKS!

BEYRAIDERZ: Sho, Jin and Leon find themselves trapped on a strange world once defended by the Six Mythic Beasts who upheld justice and brought prosperity for all through the battling BeyRaiderz tournaments. When the Beasts mysteriously disappeared, the world fell into ruin, and now it’s up to Sho and his friends to uncover the hidden BeyRaiderz stadiums, to battle to bring the Beasts back and restore prosperity to the world!

Later this year, Cartoon Network will introduce a unique user experience to the mobile marketplace when it launches a new digital initiative called Cartoon Network Anything. A fast-paced micro-network, Cartoon Network Anything will serve an ever-growing stream of fun and funny content to mobile phones and other small-screen mobile devices. Users will enjoy games, activities, trivia and clips, each lasting an average of 10 to 15 seconds. These diverse pieces of content will be randomized, and fans can move to the next piece by simply swiping their screens, resulting in entertainment that feels both immediate and infinite.
In addition to bringing a first-of-its-kind mobile offering to fans, Cartoon Network Anything will also provide unique sponsorship opportunities for Cartoon Network’s business partners. A perfect platform for native advertising, Cartoon Network Anything invites innovative advertising and sponsored content that suits the medium and that will feel organic to the overall micro-network.

Original "Always On" Programming for Cartoon Network Multiple Digital Platforms:
Angelo Rules (Season 2): For a kid, life can be a daily battle. There are adults, siblings, teachers and rivals telling them what to do, what not to do, what to say… Well, it’s time for kids to take control and Angelo’s here to show the way! He observes and then comes up with elaborate strategies to wheedle, sweet-talk, con, and work around any adversary. Season two of this new series comes from TeamTo and Cake Entertainment.

Detentionaire: Framed for a major prank and punished with a full year of detention, high schooler Lee Ping sneaks out of detention to try to expose who was really behind the prank and avoid being caught by the school’s principal Barrage. After clearing his name, Lee again attempts to sneak out of Barrage’s upgraded detention room, discovering that a strange pyramid under the school has something to do with Lee’s key, the parents council and the blue tazwurms. There is more to the school than meets the eye! Created by animators Daniel Bryan Franklin & Charles Johnston, Detentionaire is distributed by Nelvana.

Rocket Jo: Rocket Jo is an inventor-adventurer: his unique goal is to get his jet-pack to function and send him flying in the air for good…without effect. But his valiant attempts are always a false dawn to viewers’ great delight, as there always are failures, gags, explosions, falls, etc. Produced by Millimages and 2D3D, Rocket Jo works hard, drawing upon all his imagination, to make viewers laugh, both children and parents.

On a serious note, I am very curious about Be Cool Scooby Doo. I'm a massive fan of Mystery Incorperated and I have my doubts regarding a worthy successor. That promo shot doesn't seem very promising, but if I learnt anything from Teen Titans Go it's to always stay open. The other stuff:

Over the Garden Wall looks fantastic, reminds me of the old european cartoons I had to watch because we had like 3 channels as a kid. I hope Bare Bears will have more to it outside of "cute bumbling bears", otherwise I'll pass. Very excited about Wabbit, I utterly love the Mickey Mouse shorts and since The Looney Tunes show I really like Bugs and the rest.

It's kind of funny that traditionally animated cartoons seem to be coming back now. Which is kind of a shame, since we've finally figured out how to make it look good on TV; just look at Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, these guys work on a tiny budget and it looks amazing.

Let's be honest here, as much as I and likely a lot of people here enjoyed Mystery Inc., there were idiots that attacked it for not being the same old formula that even old Willie H and Joe B hated as they milked it like a 70s Sponge Bob. There's a strong possibility BE COOL is just going to be a return to the same old grind, but with some Inc characteristics - but please god, let me be wrong. :(

However, as much as I'd love to derail into how CN has turned their Saturday Mornings into an animation Ghetto until Steven Universe or Teen Titans Go! comes on; of all the failed Pokemon era fad shows to revive, is loving Beyblade seriously the new Yuigioh? Are anime battle tops actually popular now or is this just another case of Johnny Test where CN will keep and over-air the cheapest poo poo they can find?
