Cartoon Network's Missing Powerhouse Bumpers

Will be Monica's Gang Powerhouse bumpers?
 
I believe there weren't any. I believe the show wasn't on then on the channel.
 
Monica's Gang premiered on CN Brasil during the City era, no?

Yes. This was when some sort of law for local content was enacted, although CN BR had aired some local content like the forgotten Pixcodelics, also shown on CN LA.
 
^Ah, I see. Well, they probably thought it wasn't enough local content, and they wanted to add more :D
 
Hey, what about Superman Powerhouse bumper?
 
Wow, it's amazing to know that since the search for old CN powerhouse bumpers that took off ages ago is still ongoing! Guess there's just too many of them for many years. I find it amazing to know that there's still some not found powerhouse bumpers, and some found from other countries.

Probably because it was mainly for Toonami.
CN LA had Talizman before Toonami came in the picture. Before that it would air standalone, I believe. There are up next with DBZ or DB though, I am sure.

Speaking of CN LA, don't forget that CN BR also had smiilar content as CNLA and a bit more due to localized info. I'm sure there could be some lost powerhouse bumpers on some continuity for CN Brazil.
I'm actually kinda sad that many region-made bumpers don't have their English audio as almost everything had English continuity via SAP. :/

Also, I found this CN bumper that I think was used in the Powerhouse era via CN JP


EDIT: another CN JP that has some powerhouse bumpers, like the Garfield and Friends in Japanese. Seems CN JP just combined everything at that point.

In this CN Japan continuity, there is an incomplete never-before-seen EEnE BTTS Blue bumper. I just realised now that CN Japan used to make their own Next bumpers with edited scenes from the shows Powerhouse bumpers morphing into the "Next text" scene, which is very interesting. :O

Because of this, we have the chance to see this long-lost Ed Edd n Eddy Powerhouse bumper

Oh my god!! I never seen this Ed, Edd and Eddy bumper before. I can't believe there's so many Ed, Edd n Eddy bumpers out there that we've never seen before!
 
Hey, what about Superman Powerhouse bumper?

Superman never had Powerhouse bumpers in the US, but maybe there's a chance for Latin America but it's unlikely. Here's what I know about the US, Batman: TAS started showing reruns on CN in 1997 or 1998, so Powerhouse bumpers in purple and blue were made for those and aired regularly throughout 1998-2000, then Batman: TAS moved to Toonami later on, then when Batman: TAS went to CN's weekend time slot in 2002 they no longer showed Powerhouse bumpers for those and instead they made their own bumpers for the show. Superman: TAS only aired on Toonami as reruns then on its own in 2002 and CN made their own bumpers for that show as well. A lot of Hanna-Barbera action shows that played reruns on CN had Powerhouse bumpers in 1998 and 1999, but when those were shown on Boomeraction block in 2002 CN had their own bumpers for those.
 

My globe! Finally, we have Powerhouse shows bumpers in Brazillain Portuguese!!!!!!

It's the first time I see them, as before we only had generic WBRB/BTTS bumpers.

Powerhouse continuities for CN Brasil are actually rare, from what I saw, since there are so few online, more than Spanish CN LA ones. So this may be the reason why we had to wait so long for bumpers like these to show up online.

I am waiting for more at least in the near future. :D
 
 
Oh my god! This is awesome! I have never seen these bumpers before! What show were these bumpers from?
A Catalan Cartoon Called "Les tres bessones", English Dub name: "The Triplets"

Thanks! No wonder I never heard of this show. Latin America Cartoon Network sure showed a lot of obscure shows back in the day!

Here's a fun article I wrote on why Ruby and Jade from Sofia The First are good characters.
Okay hear me out, Isn't it kind of crazy how CN never thought about doing a Kids Next Door x Teen Titans OG crossover back in the 2000s? There's five members of Sector V, five titans, and they both have super cool HQs. I'm telling you guys, a TT and KND crossover would've been so epic!
