I think I'm the only one here who watches this, but they've got some cool shows on it now. For instance, they took the Midnight-Run hit, Yu Yu Hakasho, edited it, and are now airing it. The Naromi Kashusha, or something, is awesome, and is truly fun to watch. My only complaint is that they're showing DBZ and G Gundam still, and Tom (the host) looks ass-ugly.

G Gundam's last episodes weren't as bad as the other ones, although they still weren't really any good... Now thats its started over though, its all Street Fighter again. *puke*

As for Tom, I wish they brought back Moltar :p

We still get that over here in britain on the UK CNX.  CN also got the rights recently to show the recently produced Blue Gender anime series.  Though fans of DBZ should be aware that it was funimation who got the rights to the english version and convertion of it and many of the voice actors are the same ones used on DBZ (and GT).

But still, for those who haven't seen it I would highly recomment picking up Blue Gender on video or DVD (since CN are only going to edit out some of the best parts in the combat sequences).  It's deep, violent and explores the human condiction under extremes damn well.

Or gundam wing.  Yes, the third (and hopefully final) transformation of TOM is quite ugly, with no thought of any kind to style.  I liked the second form.  Toonami sucks now, they got rid of all the really good shows in favor of the quick buck and in favor of the younger audience, lets hove Naromi Kashusha will usher in a new era of toonami.  I still remember the original Midnight Run, from 11 PM to 4 AM of increasingly older and better shows.

PS: CN should really bring back robotech.

oh, yeah, blue gender is a hit, I love this series :) ( don't like the end tho ).
G gundam is amongst the worst of the gundam series it seems, the Z series is the most popular from what I've heard.

Yu YU Hakusho is nice, but the "edited" in UT's sentence... well... censorship, you know... :doubt:

Have you seen Robotech recently? I have, and it's not as good as you remember :D
I really like Yu Yu Hakasho and, I think it's Ruromi Kinshara or something.
The new Absolution looks cool, but the last one had a bit more original design (and hangars!:yes:)
DBZ...zzzz.....they've gone for about 20 episodes fighting that one guy (Boo), and it's really starting to get repetitve.
G Gundam is just...wierd. I think they should buy the rights from Harmony Gold, and get Macross imported :nod:

*sigh*
They'll get a good thing going ... then kill it off for some type of silly crap.

On a different note (channel) I'm really looking forward to Sci Fi's debute of the new Battlestar Galactica Mini-Series ;)

BTW Anyone notice the 80's reborn mess going on lately ? Transformers (Although they never completely died out) He-man, GI Joe, Ninja Turtles,......hell I've even seen freaking CareBears and Strawberry ShortCake toys back out (The sad effect of going to toys-r-us with Girlfriend,..you get drug through the dolls too lol)

But it's like they're bringing back all the old toys thinking parents will remember them and go running out buying them for the kids.

BTW, did anyone notice that back when they showed Gundam Wing on CN, the only difference between the ones during the day and teh ones during Midnight Run were only a few swear words?

I've noticed that recently. Since i started designing my Mecha RPG based off Gundam designs,...my GF wanted to see the shows so we've downloaded the Gundam Wing series and watched about 3-5 a night. We;ve seen replays from CN,Sci Fi, and some channel called Y! ? and it's really very little difference in all of them

(Amazing part is even at full screen it's still nearly full quality yet failr small file sizes. )

your GF likes anime, how lucky you are ;) ( that said, maybe not: " damn, where's my Berserk DVD box? -oh, I borrowed it, you wanted to watch it? - huh... noooooo... that's ok, honey" :p )
