When you think of CN, you think of cartoons and anime right? For many of us, CN first gave us a taste of the world of Western and Japanese animation. A love that stays with many of us to this very day.

But recently, CN has began changing, getting rid of toonami, and getting "Hipper" more intune with the kids. With animated teen dramas like TDI and Sixteen.

That and Rap.

And to attract teens even more, CN is getting ready for "Cartoon Network real" A live action show block.

CN is moving away from animation and more towards reality tv.

But its not all bad news, Cn has just announced, Sym-bionic Titan, a giant robot show by Samurai Jack Creator Genndy Tartakovsky.

So folks, how do you feel about the changes coming to CN, like it or not, it looks like we'll be seeing less animation and anime.

Discuss:
-The direction in which Cartoon Network is heading.
-How do you feel about CN's current programming? I like the move towards action oriented shows like Batman: The Brave and the Bold and The Secret Saturdays.

Things will only be good when they stop airing shitty Canadian animation.

I used to be a CN addict, but I don't find myself watching it anymore...at all.
I'm not too fond of its current programing, really-- and I never know about the new shows since I don't really watch the channel. I think I'd like to see more action, like Batman, because their comedies I don't find funny.

I think they should stop trying to catch up with Nickelodeon and Disney and just exploit the niche they've already created for themselves to it's fullest extent. You'd think the morons in charge would realize that they have virtually uncontested control over the cartoon market here in the US, and that their opportunity to be like the other two networks passed ten years ago. No matter what they do they don't have a snowball's chance in hell of ever catching up to them in those regards, so why bother?
Really, I'm just waiting for this to fail. CN has never been known for having any good live-action series, and I doubt these new ones will be any different unless they are willing to make some changes. *Shrug*

I don't like where CN is heading, I liked rushing home to watch Toonami and getting up on Saturday mornings to watch cartoons but lets face it that is dieing. CN is just trying to become more profitable. Look at Disney, they're making millions off of teen dramas, Hannah Montana, Jonas Brothers, and High School Musical ring any bells. CN is trying to tap into this money and who can blame them? They're a business and need to make a profit like any other business needs to. Everything comes full circle in the end, in a few years live action teen dramas will have run their courses and we'll probably be back to cartoons, heck it's like clothing, things that are in style today were in style when my mother was my age.

[The Unholy Shadow]

They're called CARTOON Network for a reason.
Does Hannah Montannah really have that many fans?! gonk

[Darthadam54]

It kind of sucks, really. But as long as Adult Swim isn't affected (and I heard somewhere that it won't be), then I can live with it.

That's what you get by sending over s**t like Total Drama Island.

There is a monster, and it says "eh".

In Australia, all we get on CN is Naruto and sometimes One Piece.
Adult Swim hasn't been around for a long time...
I think it's an extinct species crying

Those damn kids and their music!

Seriously, it's stupid to show reality tv on a station called "Cartoon Network." Or anywhere.

But I suppose they can do what they want. o_O

They are, Cn has seen the success of TDI, which is an animated reality tv show. So they've decided to take it one step further, actual reality tv shows.
