The unholy bastardization of my childhood. · 2:45pm Mar 10th, 2016
Damnit Cartoon Network, you fucked up again. That's not unexpected now a days, but why? Why? Of all things you had to take a shit on, why? Why did you have to do Bunnicula? Why?
Well, now that I got that out, let's look at this rationally. I was sitting around and decided to get on the on demand function of the TV, you know to go see if 50 shades of gray was on it yet. But I accidentally clicked on the kids shows. Being to lazy to just go back, I decided to look and see what was on in the kids stuff. Then I found a little folder in Cartoon Network's stuff, called Bunnicula. First I was like, "hell yes!". So I clicked on a random episode. Then in the first minute of the show, I was like "please Cartoon Network, just kill me like you did my childhood.". The show, was just, shit. There's no other way to put it. I was hoping for maybe something that was going to tell a story, maybe even visualize the books that Bunnicula came from. Instead it was another unholy spawn of Satan himself that is a sketch comedy. Damnit Cartoon Network, you can ruin teen titans, I can just watch the originals. You can make shitty, retarded completely original sketch comedies. You can even buttfuck scooby doo. But this is where I draw the line. I can't do Cartoon Network anymore. Bunnicula isn't ruined, at least not for me, I remember the books, but I feel bad for the kids who are going to be introduced to the steaming pile of shit mixed with rotten garbage that is the Cartoon Network show, Bunnicula. It's actually nothing like the books, or even remotely funny. It makes me feel bad. So I'm done. I'm never watching anything made by Cartoon Network, ever, again. I'll watch their old shows, and Over the Garden Wall. That's it. I'm done. The rant is over.
I leave you with this meme.
They're gonna do the same thing to PowerPuff Girls...
Yeah, CN used to be a pretty good network, but whoever's running now is running it, alright.
Right into the ground, with all the utter garbage that they have on now.
To be fair, the last Scooby Doo series, Scooby Doo: Mystery Incorporated, was pretty darned good.
Pity it only ran for two seasons, though.
And then there was the more recent Thundercats reboot (Thundercats 2011), that only lasted one season (I honestly don't know who's worse for only running a series on TV for a season, then shunting it off to Hulu or whatever the most popular streaming site is, CN or Nickelodeon), which was actually pretty good, as well.
Again, pity it only lasted One. Danged. Season. before it disappeared off the network.
Of course, Nick isn't proving to be much better with its shows these days.
Unless, of course, you're talking about Spongebob, or the Fairly Oddparents; both of which Nick seems to be content to milk for everything they're worth, thereby running them both into the ground.
3801197 they made another scooby doo, after mystery incorporated. It sucks. I remember that one. It was good.
3801146 pls no.
3801249 yeah. That sums it up.
3801252 I'm afraid so....coming in mid to late April.
3801266 *sheds single tear* Well shit. If they remake KND I'm not sure what I'm gonna do.
3801250 Yeah, I know the one you mean. It's called Be Cool, Scooby Doo.
I tried watching a couple of eps, but I couldn't get past the intro bit, or the opening theme.
It's that bad to me.
Honestly, where the artwork for that thing is concerned, I think either my 3 year old grand-niece, or my 11 year old Chihuahua could do a better job!
In all seriousness, though, you're talking to a gal who grew up watching the original Scooby Doo, Where Are You?! cartoon series from the glory days of the late 60s-early 70s from when Hanna-Barbera was still an animation studio, and Bill and Joe were still in charge of things.
Then Warner Bros. bought the studio after their deaths, H-B Studios ceased to exist, and their formerly great Toons basically went to hell in a handbasket.
3801299 I was raised on the reruns. Also, I was around for What's new Scooby Doo.
3801326 Yeah, me, too.
Plus The Scooby Doo Movies", and all the really good Scooby stuff.
3801278 don't worry...I know for a FACT that the PPG reboot...is gonna suck...judging by the commercials.
They're gonna do a reboot of fucking Dexter next, I just fucking know it.
