MeTV Toons - Network TALKBACK & Discussion Thread

[LinusFan303]

So how is everyone liking the channel so far? What would you improve?

I've been enjoying it mostly, I probably should watch it more, but I do have other things and other channels that I do watch so... I do a lot of watching on recording. I've enjoyed the Flintstones and Scooby stuff they've been doing on Sundays. Saturday evening Duck Dodgers, 2 Stupid Dogs, Freakozoid is comfy line up to me. I've also been watching "Wait 'Til Your Father Gets Home" on Sunday nights. I've been watching Histeria! too. And "The Greatest Adventure: Stories from the Bible".

I can't think of anything I'd change in the line up, I'd feel kind of mean, because there's someone out there who is really really happy that they get to see Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons again or something. It's also only been about 4 months, it's fine if a line up beds in for a bit. I guess Totally Tooned In is on a little too much there on Sunday night.

I guess for improving things, I kind of wish they'd be more creative with the promos.

Not me, I don't have it on my Fios yet.

Meanwhile, I'm still waiting for my Xfinity provider to finally put up the local channel on my cable line-up (as the other local MeTV channels are available).

He didn’t. He said he’s still waiting for that to happen.

Im not watching it (obviously from CZ lol), BUT... I like it very much and would improve probably nothing, because it has most shows Id expect (and some I wouldnt) and will improve (aka rotate) over time. Only thing I could wish for is probably having the new prints released on Bluray and throw some action block into the mix. Id love to see 60-90s action shows in HD on such a channel for more people to watch them. Something akin to Boomeraction/Super Adventures.

He clearly said that he is still waiting for Xfinity provider in his area to receive retransmission version of MeTV Toons like they did with MeTV.

It requires TV station to approve if Xfinity is all for get it and right now, one of them may approve or both don't bother to talk. The ETA depends on how fast is response with TV station or provider.

Also, there is a clear - that is NOT national version of MeTV Toons that is already carried on Frndly and Philo, so if one available on Xfinity, it is obviously retransmission version of local channel.

He didn’t. He said he’s still waiting for that to happen.

Yeah, it take weeks, months and worst scenario, years (or never) for cable providers finally receive retransmission version of digital subchannels.

Sadly, Must Carry under 1992 Cable Act don't apply to digital subchannels and if MeTV Toons is main channel on TV station, so it will be on cable quickly.

They're already doing it lol.

The 80s Scooby movies recently got HD remasters released on the Superstar 10 blu-ray. It is good to see them getting some play here. Boomerang Theater has also added those 80s HB films back to rotation in the last year.

Unless if I were to get an antenna or subscribe to Frndly TV or Philo, I'm hoping MeTV Toons shows up on Xfinity (my current provider) soon. I'm missing out so much great content.

Fantastic network, finally a cartoon channel ran by actual toon-heads. Last time I got that sort of vibe was Nicktoons Network in the late aughts. I think it was the only thing I’d watch back in July.

One thing I’d improve is adding more action shows to the weekends. But hey, if they’re prettying up each show piece by piece, I don’t mind waiting.

Actually MeTV Toons has 73 and not 74 out of 75 episodes of The Jetsons.

Considering the channel started on a Tuesday and The Jetsons started its second cycle on a Friday.

 

[iluvdoves1228]

Do you think MeTV Toons should bring over some older Canadian cartoons like The Raccoons?

 

[Micahel Cataldo]

I guess we'll have to wait till January about the schedule change for MeTV Toons.
