Did anyone get here get CN during the early years? ('92-96)

I remember it played the absolute fuck out of The Banana Splits in the early morning, and Speed Racer pretty much all the rest of the time. And before it had really any shows of its own, it would constantly re-run cartoon pilots that would eventually later become the Cartoon Cartoons.

>>80836638

Its hard to describe for me, it used to end everyday at 5 PM so you had to savour whatever was being aired and you had to like it cause what else were you gonna watch

>>80836638
It was pretty shitty. There's a reason the network only took off once they started getting original programming. I liked the classics, but I didn't love them. They were, even at the time, kind of old.

I watched Carrot Top's cartoon block before school every morning. He hosted sketches before showing classic cartoons.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NwHBK4wRH_U

Those fucking Hana Barbera cartoons all the time when the good shit was gone.
Even the network knew they sucked-
I remember they made fun of them in one bumper by having some kid turn away from it while it played (the other cartoons were in vacations or something).
And I remember the first night of adult swim. Ever. I was confused. And tired, so I went to bed.
Heh. I miss those first bumpers with the pool and all though.

>>80837175
>And I remember the first night of adult swim. Ever.
I remember that too. Got in trouble with my dad for staying up so late.

>All those somewhat uneasing CGI bumpers they did before CGI was better

God bless Boomerang for clearing up reruns from CN

I came across some old recordings of CN, but I don't think there's much to discuss. I only found 2007 stuff right now but I know for a fact I have some early 90's shit.

I don't think I grew up watching CN in it's launch era, I think I started watching around 1999-2000 and that was only during middle school study nights because I needed something to listen to, and the other channels at the time didn't have a good schedule.

Forgot to add- I had family members who recorded it for whatever reason, thats why I have earlier-than-I've-seen recordings.

Man, there's something I really like about this era, especially the logo.

There were days when they played fucking Flintstones all day long. I wanted to kill myself.

They did a lot of stuff like this:

>http://www.adventuresinpoortaste.com/2016/03/15/the-scooby-doo-project-the-almost-forgotten-scooby-special/

Granted that was 1999, but it was from a long tradition of marathons of old HB cartoons with bumpers that contained new content. It made the reruns seem new and most of those bumpers and interstitial segments are lost forever to the sands of time. If you didn't watch during the one weekend they were running the marathon, you missed that stuff forever.

>>80838210
That's a lot to read, and pretty shocked from what I did. So is it all found?

You mentioned missing bumpers and interstitial segments, maybe I recorded one. Currently looking through old recordings now of CN anyway, are there specific times a bumper that's lost was aired? some month or year atleast?

>>80838210
Why isn't there a version of bumpworthy for CN itself? Seems like there's a lot of good shit that should be easier to find and go over.

>>80838049
too bad the current logo is so shitty looking

Taped a bunch of random Tom & Jerry, but mostly it was garbage like Hong Kong Phooey and the Flintstones. But at least it was animated and kept me entertained.

>>80836921
The Banana Splits was late night here, the last show before the channel stopped sending. It always depressed me because I couldn't understand english and it wasn't a cartoon.

>>80838487

You take that back.

There's a channel on You Tube (can't direct link cuzza RULES)

>90sCartoonNetwork

He has a fucking TON of old school CN bumpers from the early 90s thru the early 00s.

Some stuff is so obscure and one-off that it may be gone forever. Like The Scooby Doo Project had a next day marathon of the Scrappy Doo episodes, which featured new Blair Witch bumpers with Scrappy.

Haven't ever seen those anywhere.

>>80838604
>There's a channel on You Tube (can't direct link cuzza RULES)>90sCartoonNetwork

One of his videos is linked in that Scooby Doo Project article at the bottom.

It's a good channel.

>>80838604
Are they separated? I kind of hated how the city era stuff was one big video, I'd sort of like to actually use them as bumpers.

Anyway, are there specific bumpers we know are missing and from time frames though? I'd love to post some "lost" stuff if I can.

Found a 1994 tape. It's mostly shows I have never seen before.

>>80838800
I know about Moxie, I heard a couple months ago the whole premiere was found, all of the first episode. I'll look into it.

Is there a time frame Moxy aired a lot? was 1994 one of the years?

>>80838780
Adult Swims' bumps from like the first 4 or so years are pretty great, I'm still trying to find a way intersperse them between episodes while I binge watch shit like how it actually works on tv.

>>80838737

Ithink a lot of the missing bumper stuff from early 90s CN is the not so much sought after stuff.

Like segments of "The Cartoon Club", which featured a bunch of little kids sitting in a circle, having off the cuff discussions about cartoon topics (like one episodes they asked the little girl if she'd rather date Johnny Bravo or Pepe Le Pew and she was totally wet for Pepe but was too young to understand why).

The sad reality is that CN actually deletes videos of those old bumpers from You Tube. 90sCartoonNetwork has to mask them with weird gibberish in the video titles.

I used to try to do that to, to set up "the experience" and all that, then burn it to a DVD and watch it on TV as if it was that time again.

It proved too much of a hassle though

>>80838890
CN does that?
also kek
>and she was totally wet for Pepe but was too young to understand why

I thought CN Bumpers didn't even matter, most promos don't of new-age cartoons. Plus, I didn't think they checked the titles, I thought it was an image scanner or something they used for matches.

Someone should do with Adult Swim what fans did with Toonami in making that Aftermath stream, all the old shows and bumpers streamed episodically so you could watch the old lineups as they were intended.
An old-era AS channel playing Sealab/Brak/SGC2C chiefly would be great, plenty of people seem to miss stuff like Mission Hill and even Baby Blues too, all would be welcome.

The bumpers had their own internal continuity, which was really crazy. Some of that shit lasted for years.

Like there were about 4 or 5 bumpers spanning 6 or 7 years that dealt with Johnny Bravo's relationship with Velma from Scooby Doo.

I've found most of those on you tube, but scattered across a bunch of different channels.

>>80838969
I don't know if this is the right word to describe it, but I really want to do it because a lot of the older [as] bumps are oddly comfy.
I can't explain why.

>>80838980
Johnny Bravo should've ended with him getting together with Velma.

>>80838980
I miss the "Cartoon City" theme they had in I think 2000 or maybe '01. Friday nights were amazing, all the afternoon programming would come to a clear end and the Cartoon Cartoon Fridays event would begin, usually with some new episodes and maybe a movie. By the time it was over, it was night, and you had been glued to the screen all evening.

>>80839073
I think that was actually around 2003-2005 or something like that.
I mean unless you count all the bumps with them working in an office building as part of the cartoon city theme.

>>80838972
Got more details on that? Not sure what the Toonami thing was about. Did they use some old schedule online or..? Also I probably couldn't stream or set up videos for upload like that, my laptop takes forever saving videos, and half the time they end up glitching out (like the screen goes black for no reason sometimes in the output)

Also this popped up randomly while my VHS scanner was showing thumbnails of what was being processed on the tape. I'm immature so I keked.

>>80839047
I'm sure I know what you mean, nostalgic in a sense and gives off good vibes.

>>80838980
>The bumpers had their own internal continuity, which was really crazy. Some of that shit lasted for years.

This guy's written a bunch of stupidly long retrospective articles on classic CN. Since I can't link directly to youtube vids on 4chan, the links are in the article.

But I liked this one

>http://www.adventuresinpoortaste.com/2015/05/19/wacky-races-forever-the-2006-series-revival-pilot-review/

In 1995, CN had a marathon of Wacky Races reruns with a theme about Peter Perfect and Peneleope Pitstop getting married. Then 11 years later, when they tried to revive Wacky Races, they maintained that obscure as shit continuity and had Peter and Penelope still married.

There were some experiences that are kind of lost.

Like Cartoon Planet's original format of Space Ghost/Brak/Zorak segments in between reruns of old cartoon shorts.

It worked much better that way than when they later compiled all the Space Ghost stuff into full half hour shows.

Watching Cartoon Planet like that is like watching Beavis & Butthead without the music videos. It wasn't designed to be watched that way and the rhythm is way off and the characters get annoying when you have to suffer too much of them (mostly Brak).

>>80839097
>I mean unless you count all the bumps with them working in an office building as part of the cartoon city theme
I do, but yeah the "everyone sitting in the movie theater waiting for the movie to start" thing was later on like you said.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_UHBJDSwlBc
Link-related was '00-'01, right? That's where my brain has put it, whether or not that's accurate.

>>80839138
Details on Toonami Aftermath? Google it, if the stream still exists (it pre-dates the return of Toonami) then it should be the first result. Average stream, but yeah they scheduled shows to run together with bumpers so you could tune in any time and see, say, DBZ followed by the space bumper, then Gundam Wing and another classic video, followed by something else from Toonami's run and so-on. 24/7 stream

This was one of those "pre-CN City" bumpers and it was the fucking best.

Scrappy totally losing his shit.

https://youtu.be/FBbw1--WEsU

>>80839239
I want to say that definitely was after Adult Swim had aired, so maybe sometime around '01-'02.

>>80839292

Weird. Sometimes /co/ will let me post you tube links, sometimes it tells me that you tube is blocked as spam.

>>80839292

Jeez, Scott Innes's Scrappy voice was just his Shaggy voice with no modification.

That guy had no range whatsoever. Worst Shaggy. Worse than Scott Menville.

depends if there's a dot in the middle of "youtube", sometimes the way a video will open in your browser it will open like that, like if you follow a link from another site sometimes because the URL had been shortened, shortened URLS are considered spam because of the dot placements
Also CN bumpers used to have so much variety, like how Nickelodeon's logo could be anything from a teacup to a Dog bone, now it's just fucking TEXT.

/co/. THis has been haunting me since 1995.

https://youtu.be/NJqm0uoxO30

How DID Cartoon Network play 25 hours of Scooby Doo in one day? There was a sweepstakes contest to guess how they'd do it and everything. But I missed the marathon and it was gone forever so I never found out what their explanation was.

Daylight savings time?

Well Boomerang exists with all the old HB toons, but I've never watched it to see what it's like. But yeah, I'd kill for an Aftermath-like stream of early Adult Swim years, or a full-on recreation of 90's CN if one wanted to be ambitious.
I'd like to see an early CN stream that mixed in commercial breaks using appropriate-era commercials and everything.
>tfw Crossfire commercial

>>80839494
That sounds like the only explanation.

>>80839504
Maybe for an Autumn/Fall kind of thing

>>80839522
Bumpworthy exists too, so it wouldn't be too hard to grab the bumpers and shit necessary to recreate old AS.
But what would really make it perfect would be actually having commercial/bump breads mid-show.

>>80839569
>But what would really make it perfect would be actually having commercial/bump breads mid-show.
I don't think anyone here is willing to put in that much effort.

>>80839569

>>80839522
>I'd like to see an early CN stream that mixed in commercial breaks using appropriate-era commercials and everything.

That was exactly what I was doing on my DVD Experience thing but I got very bored with it.

>>80839633
Bumpworthy is a site that pretty much has all the bumps Adult Swim and Toonami have ever ran.
It even has the ones that are just black background / white text.

>>80839662
Just looked at it, that's pretty cool. Anything like this for other channels? You'd think there'd be a website for all channels for this stuff, categories and everything.

>I know about Moxie, I heard a couple months ago the whole premiere was found, all of the first episode. I'll look into it. Is there a time frame Moxy aired a lot? was 1994 one of the years?

The Moxy Show aired from 1993 to 1998.

Nearly all of it is lost, though I don't know which era is more scattered, the Penn Jilette era (which is the one I remember) or the Chris Rock era.

I just want to hear Bobcat Goldthwait's velvety tones in my ear again.

>>80839292
Poor Scrappy.

>>80839756
>>80839292

What I loved about things like The Moxy Show (which was about a CN janitor with a pirate satellite dish) and all those City/Office bumps, was that they made Cartoon Network feel like it was a real place that you could go visit. Where the cartoon characters actually worked like it was a day job.

I was 7. C'mon.

Just found this, is there any info on it?

It was something about you can be the next great Toon star. Muffled audio keeps me from hearing the specifics but it seems like a thing if you win a sweepstakes you get animated in a few of their shows or something. This seems like a historical thing and I really want to know who won.

>>80839756
Yea
and thanks for those dates, I might be able to find something. Here's hoping.

>>80839832
I liked that too. I always had a fascination when I was younger too where cartoon stars did the series they're in as a job, and some bumpers would show them getting make up on or something like that.

>>80838838
>I heard a couple months ago the whole premiere was found, all of the first episode. I'll look into it.

Has it been posted anywhere?

I'd love to see more than minute-long clips.

>>80839891
It's on the Lost Media Wiki and it's a link to vimeo. I don't have the link on hand though.

I found out about it a couple hours ago but didn't watch the whole thing, it kept all the shows in tact and everything, so that's a plus side.

>>80839832
>they made Cartoon Network feel like it was a real place
This shouldn't be underestimated. Just seeing all the characters I recognized interacting for even the briefest of times kept up the feeling of CN being a real thing with identity, not just a collection of shows aired back to back.

>>80839866
All of it just gave the network a better atmosphere, I feel like the CN City stuff did that too.
I'm honestly surprised they trashed that sort of thing, having the cartoon characters all interacting with each other should've honestly been one of the channel's gimmicks.

>>80839955
One of my favorites
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zYY82nr_fkY

>>80839955
It was off and on in the early 2010 era.

They made a bunch of Regular Show and Adventure Time things where they would interact (with episode audio)

There's a recent promo for their new saturdays lineup for those 2 shows that end with Mordecai and Rigby excited then the camera pans over (and they look over) and Finn and Jake are there too. Maybe they're bringing it back as some sort of new rebrand. They hinted at it with their 20th Anniversary music video stuff.

Early Cartoon Network was made to be a 24 hour cartoon channel for adults where you could watch shit like Flintstones and Tom/Jerry at 3 AM.

They didn't get the idea to make original programming until the later part of the 90s.

As other anons have said it was mainly Speed Racer and Banana Splits spammed. I hate Speed Racer because of how much they played.

June Bugs was the perfect way to start summer break.

>>80839927

YES! Thanks!

Also, the Lost Media page reminded me of The Bog Bowl, another one of those Cartoon Network marathons that used bumpers to make reruns feel like big deal events.

I recall it bugging me that they used "classic" Morocco Mole as the co-host rather than the 90s Morocco Mole who was cooler.

I was pretty young but the thing I remember most were the commercial bumps. Hard to describe, but I think it was a lot of checkered patterns with the characters popping up. I specifically remember watching a lot of Godzilla, Herculoids, Scooby Doo, and Birdman. There was also a lot of Speed Racer, but I didn't really like it.

>>80840059
It wasn't summer without it!!

>>80840037
They should really be recording new audio for this shit.

>>80839835
Was finally able to make out what the promo said.

It was a preview for the 7 PM showing of a Scooby Doo episode that day and during one of it's commercial breaks "You can find out how to be a star"

maybe I have the commercial later in the tape or another tape, but does anyone already know about this?

>>80839955
>I'm honestly surprised they trashed that sort of thing, having the cartoon characters all interacting with each other should've honestly been one of the channel's gimmicks.

They brought it back as a "special occasion" for their Anniversary in 2014

https://youtu.be/H1XIeQ48c3Y

And then they never did it again. Those Anniversary bumpers were like a brief taste of what CN used to be in its prime.

>>80838844
>>80838969
The PseudoTV addon for Kodi can automatically insert bumpers. I haven't used that functionality of the addon myself, but it looks pretty simple to setup if you already have a Kodi installation.

>>80840182
Yeah, I'm working on getting that shit running at the moment.
I've just been collecting a bunch of bumps for variety though, just Adult Swim ones so far though and I'm only at 47.
May go through the CN City bump video and split it up.

I liked it. There was a lot of diversity to the animation in those weird bumper segments. It felt like experimental student film stuff.

Sort of like the stations IDs Mtv used to run in the 80s and early 90s; really weird and surreal shit that always looked different.

It was the shit when you were 8 years old and whacked out on soda and candy, trying to stay up past 3am during Summer vacation.

>>80841061
>For a little while, Boomerang was trying to act like circa 1995 CN.

They didn't try hard enough.

They reran those short film filler material from the 90s, like those Scooby Doo Behind the Scenes segments or music videos, but they only aired a handful of them and they got old really fast.

Extra points for getting Jeff Bergman to be the station's narrator, since he alternated with Carrot Top as the narrator for all CN promos in the early 90s, but Boomerang was always a half-hearted gesture at best.

I'm surprised nobody's mentioned the proto toonami afternoon block hosted by Space Ghost's Moltar. I used to watch pull that lever to start the show. Just like on coast to coast and cartoon planet.

It's sad to see CN's old era be what they meant to be, as the pic suggests, but now it's nothing like this at all.

Rebrand of Boomerang aside, they should have done this, become the old CN, like >>80841061
they used to be, but it'd fit better now. The fucking title of the channel doesn't even work anymore, "It's all coming back to you"?

Boomerang could've been the new home of all the classic Time Warner / Barberra stars.

>>80841160

Well, that technically WAS Toonami, just it's earliest incarnation.

The prototype Toonami was the generically titled Power Block that had shit like James Bond Junior and Swat Kats and a rotation of Hanna Barbera shorts like Space Ghost or Frankenstein Jr.

Also I got a re-airing of that Scooby Doo guest star thing, does anyone want me to upload these or have requests of things I should be looking for?

>>80841222
I really wish I had some CN City sets to go with the lego mystery machine.

>Still no new Jonny Quest revival

>>80838890
>The sad reality is that CN actually deletes videos of those old bumpers from You Tube

yeah, no shit.

I was using KeepVid to harvest a ton of Scooby bumper material and TV specials from You Tube so I could burn them to a disc.

I'd mark everything as "Watch Later" to keep track of them before saving. Then I noticed several of my Watch Later videos getting deleted within a day, so I had to hurry to save everything off of Keep Vid before CN took more down.

I don't know what their problem is with 20 year-old bumpers. Probably some sort of algorithm that sees the Cartoon Network logo and automatically requests that the video be deleted.

>>80841355
Or CN's just greedy as fuck, for some reason [as] seems much better about this sort of thing.

Did you forget about the straight to DVD movie they made last year?

It was a crossover with Tom & Jerry. "Spy Quest" or some shit.

You're better off not looking into it.

When was that announced again? Like 8 years ago?

They've been trying to do that since the 80s.

It was supposed to be Shane Black's followup to The Monster Squad.

You know, a CN City movie would be pretty neat.

>>80841757

I remember when CN would be getting reruns of a show, they would do these teasers by having animation play over the bottom of the screen during a show with a "COMING SOON" label to get you hyped.

When they got Taz-Mania reruns, they had a spinning whirlwind move across the screen during other shows with "COMING SOON" and even though Taz-Mania was old and the show was over and everyone had already seen everything there was ever going to be OH HOLY SHIT DID YOU SEE THAT TAZ-MANIA IS COMING I CAN"T FUCKING WAIT!!

Did he always walk like this?

Are all the segments of Staylongers online?

I've found like 2 or 3 of them, but it was a really long event and there were, like, 30 segments.

THAT'S one of those great pieces of CN history that seems lost forever in its entirely. Then entire Cartoon Cartoon Fridays line-up reenacting Survivor for a whole month.

>Staying up super late to watch Late Night Black and White and ToonHeads

CN saved the old timey racism for the wee hours. It was great.

Acme Hour and Toon Heads were my favorite thing to look forward to.

Also Cartoon Fridays.

https://youtu.be/ZVYB-iORDS4

Weird shit, but they always showed great movies like The Hobbit, The Phantom Tollbooth or Twice Upon a Time.

When it turned over to the generic "Cartoon Theater" in the late 90s, they started showing less obscure stuff and switched almost entirely to Scooby Doo direct to DVD movies.

Boomerang was my favorite part about old Cartoon Network. I used to wake up at like 5am on Saturdays and watch the whole block until the Fox/WB blocks. Birdman, Space Ghost, Wacky Races, Herculoids, Mighty Mightor, Blue Falcon and Dynomutt, Moby Dick, Shazann, fucking everything.

"fuckin' a" now and so often? I live around people who say it every day. Is it from some vine thing?

Is there even any good classic cn merchandising?

>>80844553
Of course. Most of it is hard to find now though. Name one of your favorite classics you'd want merch of.

>>80844610
Space Ghost Coast to Coast, maybe Dexter, EEnE or Scooby-Doo if you'd consider those CN classics.
I'd be fine with just CN branded stuff in general.

>>80844698
I do.

Those are good choices. Are you aware of the Wayback Machine? Go to that site and put in cartoon network, then go back to the early 2000s and look around on their shop website, they have some original stuff there you'd never knew existed if you tried to search for it now.

>>80844455
Fuckin' a has been around at least since the 80s if not further back.

>>80844779

>>80845111
For a while there I think CN only played Teen Titans Go all day everyday. They've broken it up lately though and actually show their other cartoons.

I think me and my family discovered we had CN in 1996 or 1997. I remember it being mostly Hanna-Barbera, Looney Toons, and some other old cartoon shorts.

>>80836638
I remember when they played the Flintstones all summer vacation long in the UK one summer. It was awful.

It pissed me off how at the time I couldn't stop wanting a more creative aspect for the logos. CN's logo was at the bottom of the barrel, most of the time it was either a box or a sticker on some object. Then there was Disney, where it had somewhat more variety, it had characters in the icon, people drawing the icon before a show, stuff like that. Nickelodeon used to be on fucking top. They had a logo that could be anything. They traded that in for pure text in all lowercase letters.

From a marketing perspective it helped with branding, but from the viewer's perspectives those were almost more interesting than the show themselves.

One anon here mentioned the private tracker MySpleen. Does anyone happen to know if they have full early Adult Swim broadcasts as well as the '92-'96 broadcasts of CN? Would be interesting to see their anime and cartoon lineups in perspective to where they were at the time.

>>80855047
I have an account there and they don't have as much as you'd think, for them being well known. They have a good amount of "full broadcasts" (with commercials) but nothing really notable. There's like, 4 Toonami ones but it's hardly anything to get wet about.

>>80855117
I really wish CN would just sell blu-rays or DVDs of old broadcasts.
Like as a nostalgia bait thing.

>>80855117
Ah, that's a shame. Guess it makes sense, though - as a kid, recording an upcoming special to watch later is probably the last thing on your mind. Anything else besides the 4 Toonami broadcasts?

>>80855185

I did. I watched the shit out of Tom & Jerry, Scooby Doo, and Looney Tunes. They played a lot of the Flintstones, Jetsons, and I think Yogi Bear though. I hated those. I also remember some Speed Racer, Space Ghost, and that one action show that was stone age heroes (had that white blob guy in it). Later at night I vaguely remember a more '''''mature''''' block with stuff like Two Stupid Dogs.

It was mostly that sort of stuff (Looney Tunes and various Hananna Barbara sitcom-y garbage) until What A Cartoon!/Cartoon Cartoon came around and really changed the way their scheduled looked. God, I fucking loved that shit so much when it started. Felt so different from everything else they showed. I caught of bunch of them on their premiere airings. Johnny Bravo, Power Puff Girls, Dexter's motherfucking Lab, Cow & Chicken...

What A Cartoon! seriously was the best thing to happen to Cartoon Network. It was basically a testbed for new shows that would go on to be awesome. Looking it up, apparently Courage even came from there, though I don't remember that. A lot of the shorts were duds, but some of that shit was amazing.

Haven't thought about that shit in a long time, serious blast of nostalgia.

You don't remember the alien chicken thing? It even came back in a later episode when Courage became a show.

>>80856781
I definitely remember that episode, I guess I just forgot it was part of Cartoon Cartoon. Clearly memory got lost in the immense nostalgia rush.

I remember when SGC2C was on Thursday nights in the 90s.

I tried to sneak staying up late enough to watch it and got caught out of bed on a school night.

Space Ghost got me grounded.

>I remember a Toon hall of fame thing or something on Boomerang maybe around 2010? It would choose a character, then have shows around it (or episodes) for a block or so. Anyone know what it was called?

"Boomeroyalty".

The problem with it was that they only had, like, 4 or 5 spotlights, which they'd cycle through over and over again. So you could get the same damn Smurfs marathon 10 times a year.

At least Super Chunk in the 90s never did the same character twice in one year.

Anyone remember Wacky Races? I think that was the name.

But of Hannah Barbara ass guys racing around with antics along the way.

I think you forget how hard CN promoted Speed Racer as being "cool". Here's the actual preview promo they used.

https://youtu.be/GTteJTKX-6w

Speed straight up murders Scooby and the gang.

>They used to promote The New Scooby Movies with a parody of Scream

https://youtu.be/tGestuJv5Kw

>They got Casey Kasem to reprise Shaggy

I think this was the only time Kasem played Shaggy between 1997 and 2002 when he was having a spat with Warner Bros. Wonder why he agreed to do that one promo of all things.

I remember O Canada coming on late at night and hating every minute of it

>>80838980
>The bumpers had their own internal continuity, which was really crazy. Some of that shit lasted for years. Like there were about 4 or 5 bumpers spanning 6 or 7 years that dealt with Johnny Bravo's relationship with Velma from Scooby Doo.

It was a fuckin SAGA.

First they met in the Bravo Dooby Doo special

https://youtu.be/jMT_-4724PI

Then Johnny was shown pining for her in one promo

https://youtu.be/3la82bYtcPg

Then Johnny could be heard getting aroused by the sound of her name in the Boo Boo Ba Ba Dee Dee music video

https://youtu.be/nEc4gDFHEBw

Then they were finally shown dating in a pre-CN City promo

Watched the UK feed almost religiously from '93 to '99 which was when we stopped receiving the channel for like a year or two. I do remember that the very first thing I ever caught was an episode of Centurions, but don't recall much from before the time of Cartoon Cartoons. I had The Banana Splits near-totally wiped from my brain until this thread made me remember it. Other stuff like Speed Racer I never ever saw. When was that on?

I do have memories of tons of Hanna-Barbera stuff. Don't think I outright hated any of it, but the HB nostalgiafags I at times come across are fucking unbearable. I did have a fondness for their action-adventure stuff like Johnny Quest, Herculoids, Godzilla and what have you. Liked their old-timey feel. They also aired GoBots for a while, not that I remember anything about that show.

CN did some really cool shit in the early 90s, when they would save late night programming for adults (but almost a decade before Adult Swim).

I remember they aired this thing, Saturday Morning Cartoons Greatest Hits:

https://youtu.be/LTLqmqfdPzI

It came out really late on a school night, so my mom had to tape it for me. It's not really THAT "adult", though there are some jokes about Judy Jetson and Rosie being lesbians and casual smoking in some of the music videos.

Thanks! I really appreciate it. Yea they did like, Tom and Jerry, Smurfs, and I think Top Cat more than I can remember. They usually picked Jerry instead of Tom. That triggered me.

>>80862470

>>80862524
Might have been a side thing he did and it just took awhile for the promo to air. Might have been on the backlogs for a bit.

I remember they wouldn't air live action at all. Not even commercials. The first time they aired a live action commercial I was like "wtf is this bullshit."

They also had one ad where they said other networks would cut two minutes of every Flintstones episodes. "Two minutes? You know how much time is that?"

Does anyone remember an early 2000s channel (don't know when it actually started, could've been before the 2000s) that had no commercials and played cartoons? Played Tiny Toons and stuff like that, maybe Digimon.

I can't remember it for the life of me but remember being a kid watching it.

>>80867009
Forgot to add, maybe it was early Nicktoons or the actual Nickelodeon channel, but.. I think Nickelodeon had commercials already, so maybe Toons?

>>80865913
>backlogs for a bit.

Yeah, Scream was 1996, so maybe he recorded it around then or something. A Scream parody in 2000 is pretty late, now that I think about it.

I actually found this in a goodwill last year, or maybe the year before, I don't know, time flies. I might post some scans of the tape when I get home, currently visiting family.


I actually have a bunch of nostalgic tapes. Some Sony Wonders VHS editions of nick cartoons, stuff like that.

Speed Racer kinda fucked me up with the shitload of onscreen deaths that happened in it

>>80868760

it was no more violent than Jonny Quest.

Which was crazy violent.

But not as violent as Real Adventures of Jonny Quest, which was insane for a 90s cartoon.

>>80868790
how bad was the real adventures one?

>>80868790
Shit the Real Adventures one was crazy

I actually remember watching Real Adventures with my dad cause he liked old time Hannah Barbera cartoons

He didn't actually ban me from watching it but he was clearly uncomfortable with the violence so I just didn't watch it after that

>>80854774
That seems especially crazy because back then, what was the advantage of that? Nowadays you can go viral with a gag like that, but back then it really couldn't.

Otherwise, I don't remember much about old CN. Even once they started original programming, I watched Nick more. But I do remember being fond of Jabberjaw.

>>80838210
That would have scared the crap out of me if I saw it back then.

>>80836638
Honestly never really got into the channel until around the time Toonami started. Before that it was all 70's era Hanna Barbara stuff.

Only thing I really watched was the occasional Superfriends episode.

>>80839370
CN Reboot, it's another stream like Toonami Aftermath. And is a sideproject of Nick Reboot.

I've been wondering things like this for a lot of channels.

Nickelodeon had many, so that's not really important, but Disney Channel over here in America had a very good actor, never could find who he was. He disappeared for awhile, and they got some other guy doing it. Here recently I found a channel called Laff TV, it has him voicing the "up next" and promos for the channel. Still can't find out who he is. Since I lost the Disney Channel, back in October, he might've came back or something, but I don't know.

Is there ways to find out the announcer who worked on these channels?

>>80872613
What time did this usually come on?

>>80872710
7PM on Fridays

Friday nights were a big deal.

>Droopy started Cartoon Network during its launch

Also it's 7:10 here. I was going to post

In 1994 when he was working for Cartoon Network? Maybe.

Now? Jesus Christ, he fucked himself up with steroids like holy shit.

>>80873831
Wait what? I heard Carrot Top growing up but always thought it was a little girl actor.

What the fuck.
Can someone go into detail for me? Who's this freak? Who is Bergman?

>>80873897
>Wait what? I heard Carrot Top growing up but always thought it was a little girl actor.

Carrot Top is a famous American stand up comic whose routine involved prop comedy. He used to be really scrawny in the 80s and 90s, but somewhere around 2000 he got into bodybuilding and turned into that monster pictured.

Jeff Bergman is a voice actor. He was Bugs and Daffy on The Looney Tunes Show and is the current voice of Fred Flintstone.

When Boomerang first started, they got him as the announcer because he was the original CN announcer and Boomerang was supposed to mimic classic CN (at least at first).

>>80873969
Perfect, I'm all caught up.
Thanks anon, that's helpful even though I could have looked it up myself. I didn't because my laptop fucks up any time I make a new tab. (lags like fuck and program doesn't respond)

Anyway, do you know anything about the old announcer for Disney Channel? I know he was around for 2006 but he was before and after too, I just don't know his official time range.

>>80874091

Was it the same guy who did the Disney Home Video promos?

Because that was Brian Cummings.

>>80874397
Maybe. I got a link now.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1q4OvccwRhs
This guy at the beginning, I only listened to a couple seconds so I don't know if the voicer changes.

>>80874578

Oh, that's Cam Brainard.

He was also the announcer for Maximum Exposure and played Rotor in the second season of Sonic the Hedgehog.

>>80874803
Thanks man! Seems Wikipedia has him labelled still as the head announcer for Disney, but I don't think he still does it unless his voice has changed.

>>80873897
>Wait what? I heard Carrot Top growing up but always thought it was a little girl actor.

You may be mistaking that for Shirley Temple, who had the nickname "Curly Top"

What was the worst show on CN before the genuinely hated shows started popping up?

I hated the shit out of Jabberjaw but a more acceptable answer would probably be Scooby kids

I remember being sick a lot as a little kid, staying home from school and being up in the middle of the night and seeing a lot of fucked up shows I can't remember now. I think Gumby or shit like it came on a lot really late at night when I was like delusionally tired and had a fever.

>>80881560
I remember being in High School, for the first time in my life I got an invitation from a friend to go do something aside from a sleep over. Go fishing. I was hyped as fuck but also a little nervous, due to what I guess is Social Anxiety. Turned out that morning I was going to school I had gotten sick as fuck and had to stay home. On the 40% plus side, my anxiety calmed down, 60% down side was I didn't get to do it.

I stayed home and watched My Gym Partner's a Monkey and what I think was Fosters that day. CN had a good selection. Monkey show wasn't the best but I always tried to have the tv on when Foster's showed up, towards it's end, it was hard as fuck to find it.

>>80881672
Yeah, I'm talking about when I was like 8 or 9 years old in 98/99 and seeing weird shit at like 3 or 4 AM on Cartoon Network.
