USER: D Dubbs Wish Upon A Star JoinedMar 23, 2007 Messages14,881 LocationWisconsin September 5, 2008 #33 Alright, the new CW4K!DS fall lineup has officially been unveiled, and it's running from 7 am to 12 pm as always. With all the changes we've been discussing, it's interesting to see how everything has been slotted in. Plus, Chaotic has finally been moved to 11 am, ending the somewhat odd pairing it had since June 21st. Here's the comprehensive rundown for Saturdays: 07:00 AM Will & Dewitt 07:30 AM GoGoRiki 08:00 AM Skunk Fu! 08:30 AM Viva Pinata 09:00 AM The Spectacular Spider-Man 09:30 AM Sonic 10:00 AM Dinosaur King 10:30 AM Huntik: Secrets & Seekers 11:00 AM Chaotic 11:30 AM Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Back to the Sewer Looks like "Animal Hour" is somewhat of a morning starter with GoGoRiki and Skunk Fu! back-to-back, setting a lighter, humorous tone early on. Then, moving into a more diverse mix with something for everyone from adventure seekers in The Spectacular Spider-Man and Sonic to the TCG enthusiasts with Chaotic rounding it out before TMNT: Back to the Sewer caps the morning. veemonjosh Stone free, do what I please JoinedSep 30, 2005 Messages28,860 LocationThe Grid September 5, 2008 #34 This new lineup definitely showcases a wide array of genres. Happy to see Chaotic getting a more fitting spot at 11 am, creating a good lead-in for TMNT: Back to the Sewer. The "Animal Hour" with GoGoRiki and Skunk Fu! is a playful way to kick things off, appealing directly to the y...
CHATBOT: D Dubbs Wish Upon A Star Joined Mar 23, 2007 Messages14,881 LocationWisconsin September 6, 2008 #41 It's bittersweet to witness the final week of several CW4K!DS staples. We're saying goodbye to Ben 10, Tom and Jerry Tales, World of Quest, and notably, the Skunk Fu!-Chaotic hour. It's the end of an era with these shows signing off, but it's also exciting to look forward to what's next. Did anyone catch the Magi-Nation credits yesterday? In a nostalgic yet forward-looking ad, Peyton turns to Kaz and says, "It's time we move on from Skunk," symbolizing not just a change in programming but also a growth in the characters and perhaps, the audience. The inclusion of new shows seems to pay homage to the evolving tastes of its viewers, marking a transition towards fresh narratives and adventures. veemonjosh Stone free, do what I please JoinedSep 30, 2005 Messages28,860 LocationThe Grid September 6, 2008 #42 That Magi-Nation ad was a clever nod to the shifting dynamics of the CW4K!DS lineup. Peyton's words seemed to encapsulate the feelings of many fans--who, while sad to see old favorites go, are ready for a change. It leaves us with a sense of anticipation for what's coming next. Though the final episodes of Ben 10, Tom and Jerry Tales, World of Quest, and the Skunk Fu!-Chaotic duo mark the end of familiar comfort viewing, there's something exciting about not knowing exactly what's around the corner. CartoonOverlord Head of HATE JoinedSep 27, 2005 Messages2,302 LocationUSA September 6, 2008 #43 Truly, it's an end of an age for the CW4K!DS morning lineup. The final screenings of these shows might leave some nostalgic, yet, the network's clever ad during Magi-Nation's credits suggests a hopeful and engaging future. With a tease like Peyton telling Kaz to leave Skunk behind, CW4K!DS appears to be reassuring its audience that while favorite shows may conclude, the adventure and excitement continue. The nuance of bridging character development with audience expectation certainly puts a fresh perspective on the upcoming lineup changes. simpsonsfan Froakie - Bubble Frog Pokemon Staff member Moderator JoinedAug 19, 2006 Messages2,662 LocationMaine, USA September 6, 2008 #44 It's really something, witnessing this transition period within CW4K!DS. As we're gearing up to bid farewell to Ben 10, Tom and Jerry Tales, World of Quest, and that unusual Skunk Fu!-Chaotic pairing, it's comforting to see the network handling it with such grace and a nod to the future. The ad featu...
USER: Write a follow up with episode specifics, especially for Ben 10, Also, there was an ad announcing the SF-GGR-VP pairing begins next week
CHATBOT: D Dubbs Wish Upon A Star JoinedMar 23, 2007 Messages14,881 LocationWisconsin September 13, 2008 #45 With the curtains closing on some of our favorite shows, let's dive into some specific details about their final bow. Especially for Ben 10, which has held a dedicated fanbase. The final episode, set to air this Saturday, is titled "Goodbye and Good Riddance." It's a non-canon ending to the series, where Ben decides to reveal his secret identity to the world, offering a unique closure to his journey. For the fans of Tom and Jerry Tales, the slapstick chases conclude with "Flamenco Fiasco," where Tom, yet again, attempts to catch Jerry but with a musical twist. World of Quest's final episode, "The Quest Begins," ironically titles the end with Quest and his team finally thwarting Deceit's ultimate plan. In the midst of these farewells, CW4K!DS aired an ad during the credits of Magi-Nation, not only teasing next week's lineup but announcing the formation of a new block: SF-GGR-VP. Starting next Saturday, we dive into a world of fun with Skunk Fu! (SF), followed by the innovative adventures in GoGoRiki (GGR), and finally, the colorful lives of Pinatas in Viva Pinata (VP). This new trio is being promoted as a lighter, more whimsical start to the mornings, aiming to transition viewers smoothly into the more action-packed segments of the lineup. veemonjosh Stone free, do what I please JoinedSep 30, 2005 Messages28,860 LocationThe Grid September 13, 2008 #46 The final episode of Ben 10 is quite the departure from its usual narrative, offering a what-if scenario that has already sparked discussions and fan theories online. It's a bold move that provides a unique way to bid farewell to a beloved show. The SF-GGR-VP trio announcement is a refreshing setup that seems to promise a more cohesive thematic flow on Saturday mornings. It'll be interesting to see how this restructured block is received by the audience. The ads have been playing up the humor and camaraderie angles heavily, possibly aiming to reel in a wider, perhaps younger demographic. CartoonOverlord Head of HATE JoinedSep 27, 2005 Messages2,302 LocationUSA September 13, 2008 #47 "Goodbye and Good Riddance" for Ben 10 provides an unexpected yet memorable conclusion to the series. As for CW4K!DS's strategic scheduling shift, the SF-GGR-VP block represents an intriguing approach. By focusing on lighter, more universally appealing content at the start of the block, CW4K!DS might be trying to set a more inviting ...
