Is it Me, Or Does CN, Disney, and Nick SUCK These Days?

I'm almost 17 and I can remember being 10 and there was ALWAYS something to watch on all three channels. It seems that nowadays these channels have lost there spark.





Cartoon Network had the best cartoons, like, Ed, Edd, and Eddy, Courage the Cowardly Dog, Powerpuff Girls, Johnny Bravo, and a lot of others. Not to mention they brought Anime to America, including, DBZ, Sailor Moon, Outlaw Star, Rounin Kenshi (sp?), Tenchi Muyo, and Yu Yu Hawkusho. What do they have now. Retarded Live-Action shows with dumb kids and Ridiculously Horrible Canadian Cartoons. And Then they take off Toonami. The TV Block that made them a big shot network. Worst decision made in the history of horrible decisions. At least in my book.





Nick has also fell flat the past years. They rarely show cartoons and pretty much try to take whatever idea Disney has already thrown in the trash. All Nick shows is iCarly, Big Time Rush, SpongeBob, and Victorious. Nick had amazing game shows. There cartoons were actually pretty creative and though out too: Hey Arnold, Rugrats, The Wild ThornBerrys, CatDog, the Ren and Stimpy Show, Invader Zim, etc. How do you go from those cartoons to cartoons like Fan Boy and Chum Chum. I have no idea.





Disney is THE WORST OF THEM ALL. I think Walt Disney would be rolling in his grave right about now. When most people think Of Disney these days the first thing that comes to mind is Miley Cyrus and the Jonas Brothers, which honestly shouldn't happen. What ever happened to Mickey and Friends. I have no idea. Disney would rather endorse there "disney princesses" than put on decent shows anymore. All they show is Hannah Montana, Wizards of Waverly Place, and Phineas and Ferb. Thats It! Nothing Else. I enjoyed disney when Hilary Duff and Raven Symone were there at least they had some talent and weren't posting nude pics or bad-mouthing bands (I'm talking to you Miley). And the most annoying thing of all is that all these new "princesses" are all supposably triple threats. As if I'm supposed to beileve that everyone on Disney has the singing ability to sell millions of records and the acting expertise to star in Hollywood movies.





I now I'm getting older and 16 year olds shouldn't be watching cartoons anyways but to be honest I haven't really watched these channels religiously in the last 4-5 years, because there that bad.





I feel sorry for this generation and I'm greatful that I came from a generation when producers of Kids Channels and Shows actually cared about what they created instead of just being money hungry. Sorry For Ranting So Much. What do you guys think. What are Your Opinions and What did you used to love about CN, Disney, and Nick.|||oh my gosh, i agree completely! i miss the old nick,i loved all of their cartoons! especially rugrats and hey arnold.and i used to love watching thats so raven on disney,but now its just hannah montanna and the suit life on deck =/|||yeah, they have gone down the crapper lately...maybe it's because I'm getting older. I love Family Guy though.|||You are 17, of course children's shows are not going to appeal to you.|||I didn't bother to read your essay, but I agree with the question.|||woah, nice novel =\


i didnt read it but all those channels suck nowaday|||I liked Johnny Bravo...|||yeah i SO agree with you!!|||Yes kids TV sucks! No good cartoons! Except i have to disagree with you about Phineas and Ferb. That show is amazing! Closest thing we have to the 'good old days.' Rugrats were the best. The Wild ThornBerrys, Rocket Power, and As Told by Ginger were sick as well.


~17 years old|||I read it all. I feel that what you are saying is true actually, I remember watching Toonami and watching the midnight run. Now-a-days, on Cartoon Network, you have these new crappier shows that aren't worth watching. Mr.Turner made a bad decision by canceling Toonami, a very bad one...|||im the same age as you and i completely agree. and i don't think its just because we've outgrown these channels. there's something a lot less genuine about children's tv these days. when we were younger shows were better thought out and had some substance where as today the only focus is making as much money as possible with cheap jokes and mediocre actors and singers|||I agree I loved Sailor Moon.! I watched it everyday faithfully. My little cousins are always watching nick. I'm like wat r u watching. They're like big time rush. I'm like wat is that.? I was dissapointed because iCouldnt see naturally sadie,life with derek,as told by ginger.there were so many good shows on teen nick. Disney-iHaven't watched that channel in a loooong time.|||I agree on the cartoon network, there was a lot of good anime on there, I liked when toonami was on there, especially when sailor moon was on. I liked the other anime like tenchi muyo, YuYu_Hakusho


Rounin Kenshin. Those were some of the best shows on there, these days there live action shows on cartoon network, I wonder why they are doing that, they don't belong there.
