Line 22:
** Time Travel episode again? Yawn. Wait, Paradox ''and'' {{spoiler|'''Ben 10,000'''!? And he has an '''ULTIMATE''' ''HUMAN'' '''FORM'''!?}}
* ''[[Total Drama Island]]'' is making a season three? With two newcomers that are just [[Expy|Expies]] of older ones? Aw man, [[Seasonal Rot|as if season two didn't suck enou]]- Wait. [[Ensemble Darkhorse|Noah and Cody]] are back?! The writers ''do'' care!
** For some fans, Ezekiel gave the same reaction. Of course, for [[Broken Base|some fans]] this all turned out to be [[Yank the Dog's Chain]], given Cody's "[[Stalking Is Love|relationship]]" with Sierra, Noah getting voted off early and Ezekiel...[[Internet Backdraft|well, let's not even get into it]].
* [[Cartoon Network]]: "Wait! A ''[[Looney Tunes]]'' marathon! There's hope!" And to a lesser extent, [http://www.thexbridge.com/geph215.html this article].
** Speaking of Cartoon Network, [https://web.archive.org/web/20110813202501/http://www.kungfucinema.com/j-j-abrams-to-produce-samurai-jack-film-11829 the news] that ''[[Samurai Jack]]'' will finally see a proper ending in the form of a theatrical film after CN left it lying in the dust. The movie will be produced by '''[[J.J. Abrams]]'''.
** "More bad new shows? Oi, when will [[Cartoon Network]] learn...Wait a second, ''[[Adventure Time]]''? Sign. me. UP."
** [[Regular Show]] is good too.
Line 30:
*** And for Generator Rex in particular, there are four words that sum it up: {{spoiler|"Great. [[Ensemble Darkhorse|Breach]] is back."}}
** So the Nood era finally came to Latin America...Wait, they're [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wc1fB0pQTkI Toonix] now? Better music? [[Cue the Flying Pigs|Individual bumpers?]] Latin America gets all the fun indeed! Wow!
*** They still suck. Some cartoons are really stupid and are nothing compared to [[Network Decay|good old 90s]] [[Cartoon Network]]. What's that? A new channel? What's its name? Tooncast? Oh, well, if we didn't already have enough with Boomerang and its sucky soap oper— WHAT?! They host all the 90s cartoons? EVEN THE ADS?! And they have [[Dexter's Laboratory]]?! *[[Squee]]*<ref> oh but it's only in Latin America...oh hum</ref>
* Wait, a [[Thundercats 2011|NEW THUNDERCATS SHOW]] on Cartoon Network?! [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rWrh1axPj0M YEEEEEEEEES!!!]
* Some fans were worried that the new expanded ''[[Justice League]]'' roster in Unlimited would make it impossible to spotlight some of the lesser characters. And then [[The Question]] showed up.
Line 38:
*** And from that show itself, we have [[Batman: Under the Red Hood|Bruce Greenwood as Batman again]], along with several producers from the same direct to DVD masterpiece. Then the designer of costumes from Crisis on Two Earths is attached to the series, to much approval.
* [[Nickelodeon]] [http://twitter.com/TVTango/statuses/14509554829 applies for a trademark] for ''[[The Legend of Korra]]''? Let's celebrate and [[The Legend of Korra/WMG|wildly]] [[Epileptic Trees|speculate]] on what the series could be about!
** As of now people are really going wild with the [https://web.archive.org/web/20100725005355/http://uk.tv.ign.com/articles/110/1107556p1.html official announcement]. An Avatar sequel featuring the next avatar as a female protagonist set in a [[Steampunk]] city being taught airbending by Aang's son; Most people were pleased.
** Breaking news: [[Dante Basco]], the voice of Zuko from ''[[Avatar: The Last Airbender]]'', [http://dantebasco.wordpress.com/2010/11/03/the-new-avatar-series/ will voice a "surprise" character].
** Also, the number of episodes has been expanded from 12 to ''26''. Let the rejoicing begin!
Line 44:
** The changes in fashion were cautiously accepted as realistic progression considering how much fashion trends varied widely in real life. Then, [http://www.toplessrobot.com/2011/07/sdcc_the_legend_of_korras_legendary_trailer.php someone showed up wearing a fedora].
** [[Steve Blum]] is voicing the [[Big Bad]], Amon.
* Nicktoons [[Network Decay|has been so bad about airing its classics]]....wait, did ''[[
** Is that ''[[Rocko's Modern Life]]'' on [[Nicktoons]]? And ''[[
** ''[[Rocko's Modern Life]]'', ''[[Aaahh Real Monsters]]'', ''[[Hey Arnold!]]'' and ''[[Doug]]'' DVD sets, even if only on Amazon? Sweet!
*** DVD sets in ''actual stores''? Thank you, [[Shout Factory]]!
** That's not all, there's also The 90's Are All That on [[Teen Nick]], which is basically the [[Trope Codifier]] of this trope. Nostalgica ahoy!
*** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OKheP3burzI&feature=related Oh, dude, did FACE just show up??]
*** [[Nightmare Fuel|OH GOD NO NOT FACE.]]
* [[MTV]] has [[Network Decay|been terrible for a while now, with all its reality shows and lack of music]]. There are no redeeming qualities for that netwo- ''[[Beavis and Butthead]]'' [http://www.nypost.com/p/entertainment/tv/they_re_back_PZVN8lcKHQYVIYx3xAJRtM?CMP=OTC-rss&FEEDNAME= are returning with new episodes?!] ''And'' they're bringing back the music video segments? [[Bowel-Breaking Bricks|Cue Hell freezing over now.]]
** For those of you who [[Fainting|fainted]] or [[Bowel-Breaking Bricks|ran to the bathroom]] before getting to the second sentence, let me recap. '''[[Holy Shit Quotient|There will be music videos on MTV again.]]''' That right there is a whole ATFR moment in and of itself. And [[Irony|the best part]]? The show that will bring [[MTV]] its first music videos (outside of early morning and their [[Michael Jackson]] tribute) in...''God knows how long'' is one of the shows that led [[MTV]] down the road to [[Network Decay]] in the first place!
Line 57:
** "''[[Superman/Batman: Apocalypse]]''? What kind of title is t--Wait, it ''is'' based on the "Supergirl from Krypton" arc?! [[Wonder Woman]] ''is'' gonna appear, like in the comic?! Not only are Kevin Conroy and Tim Daly coming back, but [[Justice League (animation)|Susan Eisenberg]] is back as Wonder Woman?! [[Edward Asner]] is [[Superman: The Animated Series|once]] [[Justice League Unlimited|again]] [[New Gods|Granny Goodness]]?! [[Summer Glau]] is Supergirl?! Yes!"
* A [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic|new]] ''[[My Little Pony]]'' series? Well considering how lame the latest couple of adpations has been it probably isn't going to be anything specia -- wait, [[Lauren Faust]] is in charge of it?!?
** A second season is coming out? AND THEY ASKED [["Weird Al" Yankovic|Weird Al Yankovic]] TO VOICE ACT??? FUCK YES. Note: He did not
*** A new My Little Pony promo? Is this a parody of "California Girls"? That's way out of the target demographics range. I wonder if they do know? Nah, probably no-WAIT!? Did he just say "bronies", and "DJ PON-3"!!!!?? Hasbro and the Hub also sent a letter to [http://www.equestriadaily.com/2011/05/extended-equestria-girls.html Equestria Daily!?] Plus they also clarified about [http://www.equestriadaily.com/2011/05/some-clarification-from-guys-over-at.html when the spot will premiere!!??] YES!!! WE, THE BRONIES, ARE KNOWN!! BROHOOFS TO HASBRO AND THE HUB!! MAJOR BROHOOFS!!!
** Hmm. The internet is obsessed with My Little Pony. Too bad it's not i- Wait, it's showing on Boomerang in the UK? Maybe one episode...
** Season 2 will be more appealing to specifically bronies? Sign me up.
*** ALRIGHT, [[Star Trek: The Next Generation|John]] [[Star Trek: Deep Space Nine|de]] [[Star Trek: Voyager|Lancie]] is going to be playing a '''VILLAIN'''. And he is playing a god-like trickster who takes joy in personally messing with people? Approval.
** For fans of the regular ''[[My Little Pony]]'' the addition of colts and stallions was this, since G3 infamously lacked them. As was going back to action based plots and having antagonists. The colors are similar to G1 too. What probably made fans most happy was the inclusion of Unipegs in canon.
** Princess Luna, a character who got one minute of screen time and one line of dialogue in the second episode, not only returning after a year-long absence, but also getting her own focus episode. This was especially important since her absence had created her own fanbase.
** What's that? Rainbow Dash refers to the grey pegasus as "Derpy"? She has a voice?!?!? And the fanbase goes '''''BATSHIT FUCKING INSANE.''''' [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=geTCP666Yf4 See for yourself.]<ref> but since it was determined by a lot of people, including mentally disabled people that it was insulting to mentally disabled people, the scene was changed. That portion of the fandom rejoiced when it was changed, the other...well...just don't bring it up to anyone in the fandom ever. </ref>
** The cherry on top of the whole season is DJ PON-3 appearing again in the finale, and finally shows of her eyes!!!
** Man, this show is awesome, but the toys are lame! I don't think they'll ever make anything worth-- [http://www.equestriadaily.com/2012/02/new-merchandise-recap-post.html HOLY SHIT], TOYS OF NIGHTMARE MOON, TRIXIE, ZECORA, LYRA, AND '''DJ PON-3'''?!
*** AND, AND, AND CELESTIA IS FINALLY WHITE?
** Recently, John De Lancie has confirmed that he's done more voice work for MLP. Let the [[Star Trek: The Next Generation|"Au Contraire, Mon Capitan! Heee's back!"]] [[Memetic Mutation|memes commence!]]
** '''[[Ascended Meme|DERPY]]. [[Ensemble Darkhorse|HOOVES]]. [http://content.usatoday.com/communities/popcandy/post/2012/05/exclusive-preview-the-2012-special-edition-my-little-pony/1#.T8aj98WwV7f TOY].'''
* Oh, Nick's never gonna bring '' [[
** Man, Nick never acknowledges the existance of ''[[
* ''[[G.I. Joe: Renegades]]''? Looks like-'''HOLY @#!?''' [[Clancy Brown]] as Destro!!!!!!
* [http://io9.com/5660276/green-lantern-takes-flight-with-buddy-cop-space-opera-from-the-makers-of-batman-and-last-airbender The new] ''[[Green Lantern:
* ''[[Swat Kats]]'' is being released on DVD? '''''[[Swat Kats]]?!''''' After all the effort they put in [[Executive Meddling|burying it in the Hanna Barbera vault to be forgotten]]? I don't care that it isn't being remastered, and is only available on-demand, '''''THE RADICAL SQUADRON IS BACK!'''''
** Speaking of, I wonder what happened to those rumors of a revival series in the works. Ah, well, guess they were just tha- What's this? Emails from the creators? Confirmation of a remake in the works? OH PLEASE OH PLEASE OH PLEASE LET THIS NOT BE A HOAX!
Line 81:
** The ''Dinobots'' are slated to appear at some point during Season 2.
* It's been so long since Disney aired their [[The Disney Afternoon|old]] [[One Saturday Morning|cartoons]]...hey, IS THAT ''[[101 Dalmatians]]: THE SERIES'' ON THE DISNEY CHANNEL!? WE MIGHT BE SAVED!
** Similarly, Nick has announced they're going to air their entire 90s lineup.
* ''[[Scooby
* Nearly 5 years after its cancellation ''[[Futurama]]'' was [[Uncancelled|revived]] in the form of 4 DVD movies. When an entire new series was announced not long after (to air on Comedy Central, no less, and not on the dreaded Fox), the reaction was vastly enthusiastic. Until Fox announced that they were looking for [[The Other Darrin|replacements]] for the original voice cast. They soon [[And the Fandom Rejoiced|changed their mind]]. Rumor has it the announcement was just a move in the salary negotiation.
* Man, it sucks that the last season of ''[[The Boondocks]]'' was the end. I'll go ahead and turn on the Ricky Smiley radio show...oh, hey, that's Granddad! That's pretty nea-- ''DID HE JUST SAY AARON MCGRUDER IS WORKING ON SEASON 4? '''HELL YES!!!'''''
* There's a new ''[[Pound Puppies]]'' cartoon on [[The Hub]]? Meh, I'm probably not going to watch it- wait - created by [[Recess|Paul and Joe]]? I'm going to have to check this out.
* Oh geez, ''[[The Ren and Stimpy Show]]'' is back? Let me guess, it's more Bob Camp and Games Studio quality...WAIT JOHN K IS FINALLY RETURNING AND ALLOWED TO WORK ON HIS SHOW AGAIN FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 13 YEARS?! AND IT'S ACTUALLY A GROWN UP VERSION OF THE SHOW FOR ALL OF THE ORIGINAL FANS TO COMPLETE WITH EDGY CONTENT LIKE SOUTH PARK AND FAMILY GUY? YES YES YES!
* Man, ''[[Generator Rex]]'' and ''[[Ben 10]]'' are both such awesome shows. It'd be awesome if they had a [[Crossover]]...[[Ben 10
* News that ''[[The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes]]'' would contain 12 self-contained episodes at the end of its second season made fans who enjoyed the first season's serial format believe a decline in quality would become inevitable. Then, [http://www.toplessrobot.com/2012/03/i_am_overdosing_on_avengers_cartoon_awesomeness.php this little screenshot] appeared. The complete Fantastic Four, Spider-Man (after reportedly suffering from some sort of Spider-Ban for several years), Luke Cage, and Iron Fist! And that might not be all of them!
** While fans enjoyed the first several episodes of the second season, including the ones that officially brought most of the heroes in that picture into the ''EMH'' universe, many of them ''still'' dreaded the self-contained episodes. However, synopses soon promised a revenge story for Loki, and later, the return of Red Skull.
Line 96:
* [[Ultimate Spider-Man (animation)|Yet another]] ''Spider-Man'' show? Like it's ever gonna top ''Spectacular Spider-Man''--[http://splashpage.mtv.com/2010/08/04/paul-dini-ultimate-spider-man-animated-series/ Wait,] [[Paul Dini]] is working on it? Things might be looking up...
** Also, [[Man of Action Studios]] (the guys who created ''[[Ben 10]]'' and ''[[Generator Rex]]'') will also be part of the creative team. These two announcements have helped to win more than a few fans that were on the fence.
** Fans also got excited when J.K. Simmons [https://web.archive.org/web/20160303231252/http://spinoff.comicbookresources.com/2011/03/18/j-k-simmons-confirms-hell-voice-jjj-in-ultimate-spider-man/ confirmed he'd vocally reprise his role from the] [[Spider-Man (film)|movies]] as J. Jonah Jameson.
* [[Cartoon Network]]'s new ''DC Nation'' block caught a few eyes with announcements that [[Lauren Faust]] is working on a series of shorts (''[[Super Best Friends Forever]]''), brand new ''[[Teen Titans (animation)|Teen Titans]]'' shorts, and the [[Plastic Man]] TV Show ''finally'' being made ([[Rule of Three|though likely in short format]]). The trailer can be found [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yCKT_Lwdcck&feature=player_embedded here].
** Ahem. Let me rephrase that: TEEN TITANS is coming back? With the ORIGINAL VOICE ACTORS? Awesome, but they'll only be a couple minutes...GregCipes confirmed that there [[Uncanceled|is a possibility for SEASON SIX]]? AHHH!!
** [[Tara Strong]] is Batgirl again!!
* After promoting the hell out of them, ''[[Dude, What Would Happen?]]'' and ''Destroy Build Destroy'' '''ARE FINALLY GONE!!!'''
** Uh oh. HOLD YOUR YAYS AND YIPPEES! They came out with another [[Level Up (TV series)|crappy live action show]] on a channel called '''CARTOON''' Network.
* Ugh, Cartoon Network's celebrating their 20th anniversary and those live-action-loving jackasses are going to do nothing about the old sho--wait did Andy Merill say they might ''reboot'' '''''[[Cartoon Planet]]?!?!?''''' (Go to [https://web.archive.org/web/20121106011110/http://www.stickam.com/viewMedia.do?mId=192508361 5:54] for proof!)
** Greater news, Cartoon Network will host a ''Friday night block of'' '''''classics''''' ''hosted by Brak and Zorak!'' '''''OUR PRAYERS HAVE FINALLY BEEN ANSWERED!!!''''' Starts March 30th at 8pm. And they're bringing back ''I Am Weasel'' and [[Punctuated!
** Adding to that, even though it was an April Fools joke, Adult Swim had a block of TOONAMI! MORE PRAYERS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED! EVEN IF ONLY FOR ONE NIGHT!
*** [https://twitter.com/#!/adultswim/status/187004036824834049 Probably not a joke.]

* The new ''Disney Junior'' channel has just launched and it contains classic shows like ''Jungle Cubs'', ''[[Timon and Pumbaa]]'', and ''[[The Little Mermaid]]'', as well as old ''Playhouse Disney'' favorites like ''[[Rolie Polie Olie]]'' and ''Jojo' s Circus''.
** HOLY CRAP! THEY'RE ALSO AIRING ''PB&J OTTER'', WHICH HAS BEEN TREATED LIKE DIRT SINCE 2004?! [[Punctuated!
*** Wait, do my ears decieve me? THEY'RE NOT AIRING IT?!?!?! [[Big No|NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!]] Though they're going to re-air ''[[Stanley]]'', a program by the same company and many of the same people, which went off around the time that ''Otter'' did.

Wait Donatello and Michelangelo have bladed weapons now, thats...kinda cool, [[Mae Whitman]] as April, nice. Wait [[Rob Paulsen]] is in it, sweet. And [[Greg Cipes]] as Michelangelo AWESOME.

* They're '''''finally''''' releasing ''[[Tiny Toon Adventures: How I Spent My Vacation|Tiny Toon Adventures How I Spent My Vacation]]'' on DVD!
Line 121:
* "They're doing an [[The Dark Knight Returns (film)|animated movie]] based on ''[[The Dark Knight Returns]]''?! And it's gonna be in [[Movie Multipace|two parts]]?! Sweet! But it looks like [[Kevin Conroy]] or [[Michael Ironside]]<ref>(Ironside voiced the ''Dark Knight Returns'' version of Batman during the ''[[Batman: The Animated Series]]'' episode, "Legends of the Dark Knight")</ref> won't be back as Batman. Well, who could voice Bat--[[Peter Weller]]?! ''Freakin' [[RoboCop]] himself is Batman?!'' Oh, hell, yeah, this is gonna be awesome!"
