There's suppose to be another action block taking Toonami's place, although don't quote me on that, I can't actually find proof of it. Don't know what shows will be airing during it either. But hopefully it will be a nice addition to CN.

Yeah, but if there's any chance of any of these BAD new shows (Johny Test, Skunk Fu, so on)...

Heads will roll. >=(

If it were up to me they wouldn't fill the time with action or any CN cartoons at all. Give the time to Bugs, Daffy, the Coyote, and the rest of the Warner Bros. classics. Now that would be worth tuning in for!

Which is why there's Boomerang

I wasn't a big Toonami fan, but 11 years isn't bad of a run for a block

I don't get Boomerang. Probably just as well; I'd spend all day watching Yosemite Sam and wondering what the writers really wanted him to say.

This really does suck if you ask me. I kind of had long given up on Toonami since none of my favorite anime shows were on it anymore, though I still caught their airings of Naruto and Bobobobobo from time to time. But being someone who was bred as a child and as an adult to feed off of cartoons, this is truly a terrible program block to lose.

I remember when Toonami first came on WAY back before when Moltar was Space Ghost was airing the likes of Reboot, Sailor Moon, Dragon Ball Z, and Johnny Quest. When the kick ass 3 DBZ movie special was airing with the first 3 DBZ movies airing back to back, and had trailers for each film narrated by the late great Don LaFontaine. I watched DBZ religiously on CN's Toonami.

I remember all the artwork submitted, the multiple changes Tom the robot went through, and how even Justice League and Batman Beyond became a part of it. It was an excellent, exciting, and beautifully designed programming block that made superb advertisement ads for its shows with excellent presentation and featured a wide variety of shows over the years.

Toonami, thanks for all you've done, later.

I've never been a big Toonami watcher... Anime is usually hit or miss with me. I've only ever watched CN for PPGs, Fosters, and now Ben 10 Alien Force.

But I watched the ending on YouTube, and I think it was sad. But I couldn't help but giggle at "Stay Gold."

PONYBOY!!!

I'm hoping that was a total Outsiders reference, but I doubt it.

thats exactly what i was thinking. man i loved that book.

i might have said this before, i dont know. but i never really cared all that much for toonami. i only watched it for a few shows (mainly Dragonball Z and zatch bell.) still kinda sad to see it go.

The only time I watched it was when they aired comic book movies, which is what they're replacing it with.
