Considering the WB cartoons were almost completely absent from CN for so long, they're probably just trying to show the most "marketable" cartoons they can to get people familiar with the characters again. They show a lot of Bugs and Tweety because Bugs and Tweety are popular. I haven't watched...

Is it just me, or does Boomerang need to get with the times and spruce up their library a little bit? Same with Cartoon Network. Despite the incredible restoration and remastering of most of this stuff for DVD over the past ten years or so, it surprises me that nobody at CN/Boomerang has cared...

Well, the Primal Screen/Raymond Scott revamp was the best thing CN ever did, and when it went away, the channel started a downward spiral that hasn't stopped since, IMO. But before that, you have to understand that all they had to work with was older material that Turner owned, but didn't...

Interesting. The whole thing reminds me of when I first saw Cartoon Network back in the mid to late 90's. Whoever did this overhaul must've been familiar with this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i1axETzM-5U Here's another example, though from a foreign affiliate it's the same stuff they had...

Did the Total Drama guy just FART in that commercial? Boy, that realllly makes me want to watch the show NOW!

"Hello Mah baby, hello mah honey, hello mah rag-time gal..."

Not exactly. Yes, it was used as a theme for Popeye, but it's actually a tune that predates him. It's called "Sailor's Hornpipe".

They do on Boomerang...but I agree. They should at least mix them in with Tom and Jerry. The lack of Tex Avery on CN is just as depressing as the lack of Looney Tunes. Oh well...baby steps folks. Baaaby steps.

"Yaaaaaaa...never know where you're goin' till ya get therrreeee"

Yep. Butchered!
