MeTV Toons - Network TALKBACK & Discussion Thread

[LooneyTunesFan3]

MGM/DePatie-Freleng? Shout Studios? Nelvana? Wildbrain? International shorts from International companies? .....Disney?

I can see Mario & Sonic shows along Pink Panther, 6Teen, Rocky & Bullwinkle makes return, Felix the Cat, and others airing on MeTV Toons next year.

I'm expecting AoSTH.

I'm expecting AoSTH.

As 6TEEN too.

 

[RandomMe]

As 6TEEN too.

Though I'm inclining more towarsd AoSTH. Sonic Christmas Blast aired for two years in a row.

As 6TEEN too.

If they air it, it's highly likely that they could air the previously unaired-in-US episodes (there's 19 of theme being skipped due to content although those episodes can be found in various streaming services such as Tubi)

i think 6Teen will be perfect fit for MeTV Toons next year.

Toon In With Me and MeTV's Saturday morning lineup used to have the DePatie-Freleng shorts, but the rights expired before MeTV Toons launched, which kinda surprised me. I don't know how likely it is that they'd be able to get the rights back. Granted, I don't know how hard it is to get them, but you'd think MeTV would still have them if it wasn't an issue.

The DePatie-Freleng shorts were in the MGM library and Amazon bought them when they bought MGM.

Weigel would have to go through Amazon to get them back, which looks unlikely.

Amazon MGM is still in the linear television distribution business, so it's nothing at all really.

No, I think the only legal way to watch it outside the U.S. is if you’re close enough to the border to pick up the signal.

The 1940's Noveltoon Sheep Shape has been restored.



This is for an upcoming Blu-Ray collection of Famous Studios cartoons, but it's almost certainly going to show up on MeTV Toons at some point.

There is none outside of legal means, cry with me

With the CBS/Paramount connections, I'm sure they could add The Brady Kids somewhere down the line.

I wish more channels would use the rotation strategy, that way you can have as many shows as you want (though unfortunately that hasn't stopped shows from being removed).

The sort of thing that's missing a lot nowadays

Not surprised, it is basically cat and mouse chase game.

Weigel would have to expand to outside of the US and they would need new investment to expand the operation.

If you are in Mexico or Canada near the US, you would able to get it with antenna.

I wish that Paramount needs to fix their cable channels by add more older rerun shows, but sadly, Ellison didn't care.

Universal (through Dreamworks) owns most of the Filmation shows that weren't work-for-hire for other studios.

I don't know if Mattel would have to get involved for them to air He-Man and She-Ra, and Fat Albert is very likely untouchable because of Cosby. But there's other shows that could be aired.

Warner Bros. owns the DC Comics shows and the Gilligan's Island-based shows, so those are probable candidates as well.

And even if Portugal obtained the licenses for at least the minor shows, it would be expensive considering dubbing or subtitling costs.
