Also, holy crap, some of those Ranger designs would've translated terribly to American audiences. Because I don't think every one of those incarnations has made it's way to the States, right?

There were fifteen seasons of Super Sentai before Zyuranger/Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers, yes. Apparently, Saban wanted to bring over Jetman first (pretty much a live-action riff on G-Force/Battle of the Planets, and widely regarded as one of the best seasons ever), but it took too long to work out the rights.

Edit: if I have it right Teen titans was cancled and replaced by Ben 10, which just keeps going and going

It's already been rebooted three times, actually. Alien Force, Ultimate Alien, Omniverse. It's the same trick Justice League used to get three more seasons as JLU.

Alfred in the field is kind of weird, but for what it's worth, I'm pretty sure he was an ex-secret agent in BTAS too.

He has been for a long time in the comics too, but for obvious reasons it was mainly used for disguises and espionage and what not.

Nick Jr. did a massive format overhaul last March and everything new they've had since then has been dogshit. The worst offender probably being NickMom, their very own retarded version of Adult Swim.

The best part is that their target audience hates it and have posted saying as much, that they'd much rather have something to help put a colicky kid to sleep, but Nick's response has pretty much been "gently caress you, you're gonna watch us anyway."

The "best" part of that was keeping it at only three arms because otherwise then-EIC Quesada would have to admit he made a mistake when he first drew the design.

I'm still upset that GI Joe Renegades died after one season while that piece of poo poo Transformers show lives on, though.

To be fair, having your character designer die on you does kind of complicate matters.

I honestly have no idea what the target demographic for She-zow even is.

People who set their DVRs early for The Aquabats.

I want this to be canon in the Star Wars universe so that I can hear a million Star Wars fans' heads explode at the same time.

It already exists (and isn't canon). Look up Tag & Bink Are Dead.

What really bothers me about USM is that I thought Marvel would be able to handle their own character in a cartoon better than Sony could. Sadly, this is not the case at all.

This is what happens when you celebrate having your IP under one roof again by putting Jeph loving Loeb in charge of all your TV/Animation properties. Thankfully Whedon will likely be able to shout him down when it comes to SHIELD, but the quality of all the new IPs after his promotion (Ultimate Spider-Man, Avengers Assemble, Agents of SMASH) speaks to his, er, "talent".

I'd like the Looney Tunes show if only for it's effort to make Lola an actual character.

Well, DC has been keeping the franchise alive in the comic books (I read a couple of issues but it wasn't very good.) I'm just not sure what you'd do with the series though. Follow grown up Terry? Go back to him being in High School? Reboot it completely?

Well, they'd have to reboot it after what happened in Epilogue, because DC Heroes Do Not Get Married.

Why the hell does that thing come back from the dead so frequently? Its like the vengeful spirit of CN Live that just can't be fully exorcised. Is it somehow stupidly popular in Canada or do they have like five billion seasons to use at this point?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CanCon

Basically, it's made for practically nothing thanks to Canadian Grants and after that, any export revenue is pure profit.
