Subject: The Boomerang channel.. gone sour..
Written By: Dave79 on 07/28/06 at 4:09 pm
The Boomerang channel, came on the air in April of 2001, and its owned by Cartoon Network, it shows some awesome cartoons from the 70s and 80s, but if you have noticed its been airing newer kid shows in the last year or so, and losing its roots. WHY must they do this to a good thing? Its not really to surprising but..o well.. I thought it targeted the 25-40 age group cause we are the ones that watched the shows back then, but nope. I recently seen an ad for Pokemon of all shows to start airing on this channel. GIVE me a break here.. enough said.. thoughts?

Yeah, It's defidently going south. It used to show alot of good, classic shows, but now its starting to show alot of newer ones. It wont be much longer and it'll be just as bad as Cartoon Network :-\\

I don't have a problem with it. It's been a good five or six years since Pokemon was really hot, so enough time has probably passed for people to be nostalgic for it. There's probably a fair share of teenagers out there who are nostalgic for when they were still in the first or second grade.
