Have you seen any of SEED? I saw 3 episodes, and I think it was up there with Wing, as a person who didn't like anything very much but Wing.

I hadn't considered you not knowing that. I guess I'm just too simple.

From the last episode of Gundam Seed they showed, I think they legitamately showed how screwed up war is.

You know, CN did a Boomerang spin off station already. I want to see a Toonami spin off station! Nothing but Anime! :D

Well, there is the new Anime Network now available in some areas of the country on certain cable providers. Also, if you have digital cable with the "On Demand" feature, the Anime Network has some shows to sample within that feature (of course, since most anime feature continuing story lines, it isn't really all that helpful that they only have a couple of episodes available from the middle of a series in some cases).

I'd also like to see that done. Course, once all the DB and DBZ manga books are released, I can just read it in order.

Micuzi is moving to sundays 2-4 or some hours like that. Let's hope this means the regular block is moving but the cartoon network site says nothing.

You guys honestly didn't notice DB was off the air?
It`s not like I ever watched it in the first place ^_^; That`s just a shock though. I thought they`d milk it until it was sick and dying and gasping for breath but then step on its throat and crush its windpipe.

They have one of those in the UK. It's not just anime though (I never thought that the US version was "just anime" either - more "action cartoons").

Teen Titans is on at the moment. Then He-Man, Ultimate Muscle, DargonBall, DragonBall Z, DragonBall GT, Samurai Jack, Outlaw Star, Batman of the Future (Batman Beyond), etc etc...

No he's just saying he's got a channel where he lives which offers pretty much what you want.

The most common way of getting "extra channels" in the UK is via Sky Digital, which is a digital satellite service. So you get an absurd number of channels. In the "kids" section, you have CN, CN+ (hour delay), Boomerang, Nick, Nick Replay (hour delay), Nicktoons, Trouble, Trouble Reload, Fox Kids, Fox Kids+ (hour delay), Disney Channel, DC +1 (hour delay), Ton Disney, Playhouse Disney, Discovery Kids, CBBC, CBeebeies, Nick Jr, and Toonami.

There are several different packages, but all the kids channels come together, so if you get one, you get them all.

There are other services out there, such as Cable, but they aren't as popular. They will usually carry CN, but I don't know if they carry Toonami.

(And, as an extra note, Toonami have just started showing Pokemon. Previously it was always on Sky One, the flagship Sky channel.)

Er, that detailed and boring enough for you?
