Seriously, one of the last bastions of pure cartoon entertainment, the network finally succumb to stupid live action shows and less great cartoons, like what happened to Nick and Disney. How about you, Cartoon Network, try to be a unique channel rather than copying those two instead? It's changing for the worse. I even heard of rumors that they even want to change their name just to disassociate themselves from the word cartoon.

Change is happening. It's starting in the United States, and pretty soon it will spread to their sister networks across the globe. CN Asia already sucks because they won't bring Adult Swim here and airing reruns more than they should of old cartoons like Pink Panther and the lame versions of Tom And Jerry, and with the change of new format it's going to make the network suck even more.

I dunno, to me the decision of changing the format is a telling sign of the animation industry for television is dying. It's upsetting for someone like me since I'm an animation student, and I will join the industry someday to hear this kind of news. Maybe I'm exaggerating things, but the news is certainly something I don't want to hear right now.
