Cartoon Network Technical Glitches

[Pac-Attack]

The New Tom and Jerry Show episode that aired yesterday didn't have the "NEW EPISODE" bug.

I also remember, once, I think before the DreamWorks Dragons sneak peak in 2012, a Gumball episode (I think "The Robot") aired pan and scanned.

Any more pan-and-scan airings of CN shows? Post-2010?

The weird thing that happened to CN was when I was watching CN when all of a sudden, it stopped on a advert. I was really laughing, until then it showed the City idents, and i was like "Are they bringing back the City, after a while?" They didn't. I switched over to CN Too and there was some cartoon commercials. After that channel, I switched over to Boomerang, and they were showing the old bumpers...The last stop to check was CNN International (of course it was fine) and they were still airing! I was just like "HOLY S***!" So yea, sorry if this has already been posted...

[MENTION=59121]CNCN2014[/MENTION]: Are ypu talking about the September 2010 technical fault?

If there's a thread already out there, I'm sorry.

In this thread, you can talk about anything weird, or odd happening on CN that you saw. Technical errors included.

Let me start. This isn't a error though, but it's weird. I saw the Regular Show episode ''T.G.I. Tuesday'' in November 2013. For some reason, I saw a commercial break during the episode. No, it didn't just cut to commercial abruptly: The screen faded out in the middle, then bumpers appeared. Then after commercials, the show came back, and after the show was the credits. I thought that was a new method for screening reruns during new episodes' timeslots; but three weeks later I saw ''Laundry Woes''... And there was no break until after the episode. I never saw commercial breaks during the actual episodes again.... Except for the double-length ones.

This is actually a problem not uncommon in cable. That it happened on CN shouldn't be a real issue. It's just that human error does get in the way sometimes.

True story, and this is to illustrate my point. When Smackdown was on UPN, the local cable system had some timing errors in placing local commercial breaks, and on a few occasions in the summer of '02, they would break into the middle of a match or skit and run a block of localized ads. Once enough people contacted the cable company, the problem was solved.

Since it's CN we're talking about here, should we be actually surprised that this is happening with their "hot" shows? There are two solutions.

1. A polite message to CN to ask about the errors you describe. If you get a response either way, and CN confirms that they had 0 to do with the problem, then......
2. Call your cable company. Aside from the CN logo bug vanishing for a few seconds, this may not entirely be CN's problem.

Actually, I don't think it was all-local commercials. It was, I guess a network thing....

I'll probably do 1 if I can.

P.S.: When I meant ''credits'' in my post, I meant CN credits, with the promo on the side.

@CNCN2014: Are ypu talking about the September 2010 technical fault?

From what I know, it happened one Saturday at the start of September 2010.

Too bad I did not check Turner Italian channels to watch that fault happening

What's happening to CN UK at this very moment?

CN UK is okay now, didn't find out about the technical fault until now because I was watching the World Cup final. What exactly happened?

Well, the episode froze, then glitched out and the DOG dissapeared. After that, the CN DOG came back.

I was also guessing that it was Adventure Time...
CN UK is now having episode problems from time to time.

One time in December/January 2009/10, I was watching "Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer" (Don't ask.), and possibly after the intro, I saw a CN Nood color bar. Does anyone even have a picture of the Nood color bar?

Do you have the actual clip of it happening?

I've found a recording of a Nood testcard on CN USA:
