== TOM time travels back to the 40s, crashes, and is taken in by the US Government. ==
TOM is Roswell.
Line 9:
If the final bumper is properly understood, the female computer suggests that they will search for TOM sooner or later.
* "Until we meet again...". Tom may come back, if his las words are any indication.
== Toonami ended because [[Hamtaro (Anime)|Hamtaro]] wanted revenge. ==
Never mock a hamster.
* Hamtaro may have had his grievances, but in the end was merely another patsy by the true culprits: the cast of [[Code Lyoko|a series denied their World Without Danger]] and quarantined on Miguzi for being neither Japanese nor American.
Line 55:
So, in closing, [[TOM 4]] is his replacement when he went to join the war effort. Since we don't know when or where the show takes place, it may as well be true.
 
== [[Toonami]] was canceled because they showed ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion (Anime)|Neon Genesis Evangelion]]'' after school. ==
Think about it: Panty shots, shotacon, and a homosexual relationship that results in one of the people involved killing the other, all in a setting of [[Freud Was Right|Freudian]] [[Psychological Horror|Horror]]? Yeah, like any [[Moral Guardian|Moral Guardians]]s are going to let them get away with ''that''. Toonami wanted to see how far they could go, and they pushed too far. Subsequently, they were shot, and [[Big LippedNon AlligatorSequitur MomentScene|nobody on CN will mention Toonami or NGE ever again]].
* The only time Toonami showed Evangelion was during a giant robot-themed event. Even then, it was heavily censored.
 
== ''[[Naruto (Manga)|Naruto]]'''s venturing into the fillers was the main reason Toonami failed. ==
 
* Naruto was probably one of the, if not THE MOST, successful show Toonami ever had. It had a weekend-long marathon to celebrate a new arc or the end of one (can't remember). It had surprising merch sales for an anime. It could possibly even have been the most popular show on CN at that time. Then the fillers happened and viewership dropped like a rock. This could have been Cartoon Network stupidity. You have an anime that's fanbase could have possibly been compared to DBZ and you keep showing fillers that nobody wants to see. The exact same thing happened in Japan. The Naruto fillers happened and viewership sunk, and when Shippuden aired, it rose again. Cartoon Network kept showing the fillers, despite them lasting for SO LONG and viewership continued to drop. Finally, nearing the end of Toonami, they cancelled Naruto and shortly afterwards, Toonami was cancelled. If CN had any sort of smarts whatsoever they would have urged the dubbers to dub the final Regular Arc episode, then skip to dubbing Shippuden. If that would have happened, Toonami might still be around today with an anime compared to DBZ, though that might be going too far.

== The death of Toonami was caused by the same [[The Conspiracy|mysterious group]] who brought about the sharp economic downturn around the same time ==
Because let's face it, when two things ''that'' bad happen at the same time, [[There Are No Coincidences|they've gotta be connected]]. The most likely theory right now is that [[Executive Meddling|Stuart Snyder]] is acting as one of [[Those Two Bad Guys]] (the other being [[Activision|Bobby]] [[Four Kids4Kids! Entertainment|Kotick]]) for an [[Ancient Conspiracy]], and killed off Toonami in order to try to eliminate the last strand of hope. Why? To get [[Barack Obama|a politician running on hope and change]] a certain victory in his campaign for President of the United States, all so said President could push an agenda of increased weakness and moral degeneracy and hasten the coming destruction of the United States of America.
** [[King of the Hill (Animation)|Dale Gribble]], is that you?!?
*** Compare me to Dale Gribble all you want, but remember, Toonami was born in the Clinton years, died before Obama was elected in 2008, and came back during the lead-up to the Obama reelection campaign in 2012. He wants us to associate Toonami with Democratic Presidents so we'll never vote Republican again.
 
== The only way to get Toonami back is to cram CN with so much mail their heads explode! ==
Listen to this video [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iPFQqqeDivA\] of Steve Blum on Toonami. It sounds like a longshot, but if enough people caught on
and kept doing it for ''months'', somebody would have to listen.
 
== Internet upheaval is set to begin soon... but I need YOUR help! ==
* Give me some time, and I will post a link to the revenge scheme I have cooked up. [http://www.youtube.com/user/CommanderThunderush?feature=mhee\] Ask for permission to watch this video:
[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lldn9Ypolk0\]
And, NO! This is not bait-and-switch! However, only fifty people may see it, so reply back while you still can!
Part 1 will be finished in the near future (45%)... And since this is MY OWN PROJECT, just ''try'' saying it's [[Jossed]]!

== Toonami will end up on Boomerang. ==
It'll be kinda like [[Teen Nick|The 90s are All-That]]; Toonami will start airing on Boomerang, complete with a new, cooler model for TOM, the possible return of the ship and SARA, and show almost all of it's old programming. It'll also oust that useless "BoomerAction" block.
** This Troper likes that idea, but it makes him sad- not because he misses Toonami- basic cable doesn't include Boomerang.
 
Line 108:
== They already lined up to have Toonami comeback before the April Fool's joke ==
It takes months to schedule things on television. They new the surprise and the "we may get it back if you show enough interest" was just a plan [[Batman Gambit|get us to give them loads of free advertising]].
** Well, they had almost certainly had [[Casshern Sins]] and [[Deadman Wonderland]] ready to air on [as], replacing the shows that have [[Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood|already]] [[Kekkaishi|finished]] [[Durarara!!|airing.]] But they may have found that people much preferred the Toonami-based bumpers to the weird crap they had on there before, so they set some up and called it Toonami.
 
== Once Toonami's rating get it more money we'll start getting multi-night events again ==
Line 114:
* The first one would be the return of SARA.
** Jossed. DeMarco said there's no chance of that happening.
*** Not exactly jossed. There's still a chance but it's incredibly, incredibly slim at this point in time due to the cost to re-hire SARA's voice actor and animate SARA. Maybe a few years down the line, but not right now. [[De Marco]]DeMarco said that if Toonami gets more ratings, CN would be willing to invest more money in the block. They are still interested in doing multi-night promos but that's dependent, again, on money.
 
== TOM 3.5 exists because the goofy looking TOM 4.0 [[Retcon|never]] [[Canon Dis ContinuityDiscontinuity|existed.]] ==
* who?
 
Line 138:
== Toonami was revived... ==
 
To serve as a thank you for all of TOM's work behind the scenes of [[Cartoon Network]]. After Toonami was cancelled, the head of CN promoted TOM to oversee development of new original CN television (NOT live-action of course). He spent the last four years traveling through distant places, eyeing for fresh blood to help out the (at the time) struggling network [[Adventure Time (Animation)|with]] [[Regular Show|some]] [[Generator Rex|success]]. As thanks for all of his hard work finding quality programming (and having a re-engergized feel from scouring new cartoons while in retirement), the head honcho, for Toonami's and TOM's 15th birthday, offered [[Adult Swim|[as]'s]] [[April Fools' Day]] slot to air, which he happily accepted. When the prank found success from the audience, the head of CN and TOM worked out a new schedule, and the rest is history.
 
== T.O.M. downgraded his body because he preferred 3.0 to 4.0. ==
Line 147:
Now, he's back, having obtained means to rebuild himself, his ship, and reinitialize contact with Earth. What trials brought him back, [[The Greatest Story Never Told|we may never know]]... But make no mistake. [[Undying Loyalty|He came back for us.]]
