Look for tons of live action shows.

Update--It's looks like it's just a block name not the new network but i can't figure out how to change the name of the post.

It still means more live action on CARTOON network.

Here's more info.

Well, that's some pretty stupid shit. No Lucy Daughter of the Devil, no Frisky Dingo and now reality programming on the cartoon channel.

I'm amazed and saddened by the stupidity.

What beats me about such a move is that I would've thought that DVD collections of most popular cartoons shows-- even the awful GEORGE OF THE JUNGLE-- would be more profitable on the back end than any live-action kidvid movies or, worse, reality shows.

Is this another channel Cartoon Network is making, like Boomerang, or does this effect CN in general?

Sigh. It sounds like further Network Decay (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/NetworkDecay) of the Cartoon Network to me.

I guess they felt cartoons just weren't good enough for ratings anymore. And maybe it's run by people who just don't get it.

It happens to a lot of niche channels. We've discussed the Network Decay of the Sci-Fi Channel in another thread.

I wouldn't even call it The Cartoon Network then.

Speaking of decay I do notice that we are seeing a certain lack in anime shows. We still have some but not as frequent as it once was.

yeah,i have.my opinion,is that if you want to attract 10 year olds,which i assume are they're primary audience,the put dragonball z and funi OP back on,don't put any of that live action
