Boomerang (US) News & Discussion II: Rebrand

[Micahel Cataldo]

Is Boomerang making schedule changes for the summer?

 

[Markus Nelis]

Tom & Jerry marathon starts tomorrow now that the promo said that. I'm just saying because sometimes Friday is considered a weekend day as well.

 

[RDG]

Here's (most) of the marathon's schedule; be warned: some of today's (and the next few days') schedule has yet to be updated

Good, I will record a next bumper for the premiere. I'm positive there will be one. Maybe even other bumpers for Tom and Jerry marathon similar what happened to Bugs-ter weekend.

Looks like a mix of classic Tom and Jerry, Tom and Jerry Kids, Tom and Jerry Tales, The Tom and Jerry Show and Tom and Jerry movies.

 

[Dan's Revenge]

First a question. I believe it so, is this the first time Tom & Jerry Kids has aired since the 2015 rebranding?

Memorial Day edit: Fixed Saturday morning movie showings.

 

[RDG]

First a question. I believe it so, is this the first time Tom & Jerry Kids has aired since the 2015 rebranding?

No; last time was 2018

 

[Markus Nelis]

I'm just glad we get some kind of event which we don't get often. Airing movies all day Memorial Day is a good idea, too.

 

[Dan's Revenge]

DISH who I'm still using as a provider doesn't have the correct info that I'd seen on zap2it, so it makes it harder to pre-record anything to the DVR, I can of course have pre-set whatever show is at the time I'd seen something from the zap2it guide and hope it's the show I'd hoped.

Although, I think zap2it probably was misinformed on one movie as Robin Hood and His Merry Mouse shows at 11 (54m from now) vs Nutcracker Tale which shows same time tomorrow.

Additionally, DISH guide shows Shiver Me Whiskers instead of Willy Wonka for this evening's theater. I'll get an idea later on the mix-ups, especially when plenty of non-T&J are still showing on it.

Boomerang is using the pop up banner again it advertises the premiere of Tom and Jerry: Spy Quest.

Here's an image of that.

 

[ToonDude03]

I don’t think Boomerang is changing their schedule this week. According to Zap2it, everything will stay the same. However, do not worry, Zap2it also says that there IS a change coming on June 1. So keep an eye out for that.

 

[superkeegan9100]

I wouldn't expect much from them, considering they dumped literally all of the CN Classics last year...

 

[JakobTV]

My cable provider still has the CN classics on Boomerang on Demand. Billy and Mandy and Dexter are still there. Not sure if any other cable providers have those shows.

 

[superkeegan9100]

I know for a fact U-verse doesn't have them...

 

[JakobTV]

I know for a fact U-verse doesn't have them...

Yeah, probably just my cable provider.

 

[D-nice is the man.]

Tom and Jerry: Spy Quest is currently airing although TV Listings have it for Tom and Jerry: A Nutcracker Tale.

 

[Toons Fan]

After the 3AM Smurfs airing Boomerang played the wrong up next bumper they played the The Powerpuff Girls one.

So? they dumped them in 2017. That didn’t stop them from bringing them back in 2018.
