Cartoon Network Nostalgia Thread

[Daxdiv]

They covered a lot of shows here. I can spot reps from Camp Lazlo, IM Weasel, PPG, Johnny Bravo, Generator Rex, Regular Show, Secret Saturdays, Chowder, Ben 10, Flintstones, Looney Tunes, Scooby Doo, Megas XLR, and so many others.

[Avaitor]

Yeah. They even have Robot Jones and Mitch from PPG in there.

Craig Crumpton from tz has an animation media collectors group, and in it, he posted something about how Target is selling exclusive 20th anniversary CN DVDs. I saw Flintstones, Adventure Time, Regular Show and the Smurfs there. This place is that next to a Target so I might check it out later.

Edit: meh, these are just rereleases of older DVDs with new packaging, most of them single discs. The Flintstones one does have the first season though, so if you want that, I'd recommend it.

Oh, forgot to mention that I actually saw this on Friday... But I can't really remember all the shows. There was a good episode of EE&E, the Powerpuff Girls and... one more that I can't remember... and they were all very enjoyable.

Too bad they ended it with Gym Partner. The show is still awful.

[Eddy]

Gym Partner is probably the worst Cartoon Cartoon. Ever. And I can think of a few more Cartoon Cartoons I didn't care for.

But, really, Gym Partner was just trash with no redeeming qualities what-so-ever.

[Kiddington]

Worse than Squirrel Boy? Problem Solverz? ANNOYING ORANGE?!?!

I'll admit, Gym Partner is pretty bad, but it has some awfully steep competition here for flat-out worst.

[Nel_Annette]

Don't forget that shaved animal shit. heh

[Eddy]

Okay, I forgot about Squirrel Boy. And I guess I wasn't thinking of Problem Solverz and Annoying Orange as "Cartoon Cartoons" since, at the point, they dropped the label.

But, yeah, all of them are worthy contenders for "worst Cartoon Network orignal". Whoever wins, we lose.

I thought they dropped the actual "Cartoon Cartoon" label way back around 2003, 2004-ish. I never remember Gym Partner or Lazlo or any others of that ilk ever being referred to as such, but maybe I'm just mistaken.

...but now I'm just splitting hairs, so whatever. 

Don't forget that shaved animal shit. heh

That's actually not a CN original, though; another *cough* fine import from north of the border, as it stands.

In all fairness, I still think of Cartoon Cartoons as anything made with the CN Studios label now. (With obvious exceptions like EEnE and Courage) Can't shake that label to this day so things like Regular Show and Flapjack still count for me as CC. Gym Partner and Lazlo still were made there. Though despite coming from the bad era, I still like the ending animations they had near the credits for them. Seeing a fun little pencil test of the cartoon characters doing something silly made me smile.

[Eddy]

I admit that I too often think of all CN originals as Cartoon Cartoons (though for some reason I have a harder time thinking of Adventure Time and Regular Show in such a way). I wish they'd bring the name back.

[Avaitor]

I go by the belief that all CN originals made up to KND were Cartoon Cartoons, with the exception of Jack.

[Dr. Insomniac]

I don't give a fuck about the Cartoon Cartoons label. In the end, they're all CN originals.

[Foggle]

Wasn't Adventure Time originally going to be a Nicktoon?

This.

The pilot was made for their Oh Yeah! Cartoons revival, but I don't think Nick ever really considered buying it. CN picked it up as soon as they could.
