So, if you see a billboard with "I pooted" or "Look at me I have a meat beard"...those are from Cartoon Network shows.

The fact that a network that once devoted itself visual, image-based medium is now advertising with enigmatic bits of text says a lot, doesn't it?

It is really sad what they are doing to get kids to laugh these days.

I was perfectly happy with Dragonball Z, when I was their age.

I think that CN should be a bit more reluctant before showing live action films like Dumb and Dumber.

Watching CN is akin to purposefully turning your brain into a potato. My kids will not be watching that channel. Of course, I have to meet and marry a woman first, but I've got it all planned out... [Wink]

Meh, I still love Cartoon Network - it's responsible for airing some of the best animated programming to date for the first time (either in the U.S. or ever) like Foster's, Cowboy Bebop, Samurai Champloo, Trigun, The Oblongs, etc.
