It's funny; back in the day, when I was a kid and MeTV was TV Land, I thought it was just a channel for old people, but this is a goddamn power move. "Oh? Cartoon Network failed its mandate to provide both modern and classic cartoons? Well don't you worry, sonny, Grandad has ya covered!"
I no longer have cable, can't afford it. Is TV LAND still on? I remember they used to show old shows even had "THE TV LAND AWARDS SHOW. I just remember the actor who played Jack Tripper on 3 company was the first host. My cable comp. was slow in picking up TV LAND. As well as Cartoon Network, by time they did all the classic cartoons had Moved to Boomerang and C.N. was the place for cartoons THEY had created. Last time I saw BOOMERANG, it was a dumping ground for the old C.N. created cartoons. 😝
I hope MeTV Toons has a Action cartoon block and that they also get Swat Kats, Centurions, Space Ghost/ Dino Boy, Galaxy Trio, Birdman, Pirates of Dark Water and the Real Adventures of Johnny Quest.
I remember Cartoon Network used to have a cartoon show where they told a bit of history about the shorts before they play them. Would like for something like that to come back.
MeTV is basically like tubi they are just throwing all the old school stuff out there that don't even want it on their streaming services they want to push new content. Which is better for all of us we get our nostalgia for free 😊
Streaming has screwed up traditional television viewing so bad, we've looped back all the way around to antenna television getting all-encompassing networks 😅
My first exposure to Cartoon Network was when I visited my relatives in Atlanta, Georgia. These exact shows were what I remember seeing when I saw Cartoon Network back into the mid 90s. All it needs is Cartoon Planet, G-Force (another dub of Ninja Science Team Gatchaman) Robotech, the Real Adventures of Johnny Quest, and I’ll relive my mid 90s childhood!
Those shoes will probably come later. They're probably just going to wait and see how well this new channel does before they consider getting more classic cartoons like that and more to the block.
Sweet, this is really awesome. Growing up we never had cable so MeTV was my go to channel and shows like Mash, Gilligan's Island, Mama's Family, and all the old superhero shows were what I grew up on. Now that they're starting up a cartoon channel I might have to jump back to MeTV.
I love the idea of this being a free channel. I really hope it comes to people who don’t have access to just regular MeTV though because showing our new generation these classic gems (like Josie, Top Cat, etc) this makes me happy. I can’t wait to see any of the shows especially Baby Looney Tunes and The Mask but I can’t wait to sit down with my daughters and watch cartoons like Josie and Droopy.
I love METV. My favorite part of the channel is the SCIFI SATURDAY block with Svengoolie, Batman, Star Trek, Kojak the night stalker, Lost in Space, and The Time Tunnel. Toon With ME is cool.
Havent heard anyone talk about The nightstalker in decades. I remember the reboot in the early 2000s. It was mid but at least it reminded me of the original
@@JMsolidsnake The original series is absolutely great, fun fact chris carter called Kolchak The Night Stalker a massive influence on the creation of the x files.
So was the Ace Ventura Pet Detective series, but that crossed over with The Mask for a 2-Part Crossover Event: "The Aceman Cometh" and "Have Mask, Will Travel." In the latter, Ace's butt was wearing the Mask of Loki.
The Vice Chairman of the company that owns MeTV said in an interview that their goal is to emulate the first decade of Cartoon Network as best as they can. He also mentioned a few classic anime series.
There's about a dozen more shows in those squares with yellow backgrounds. They line the website and rotate to different ones. Some of the others not pictured here are Captain Planet, Krypto the Superdog, and Silverhawks. There's also a video interview with MeTV's Vice Chairman where the Ghostbusters news comes from and he lists even more there like Thunderbirds. He also mentions that the first original show will be about Bugs Bunny airing in July on the 70th anniversary during a marathon.
You aren’t alone Andre. I hit play on this video so fast! I can’t wait to see these classic cartoons 24 hrs. I hope they have ‘A Pup Named Scooby-Doo’.
Or… you could just watch it on streaming whenever you want. Watch whatever you want. But LOL at those the old losers here crying that they can’t watch racist cartoons anymore. 🤣🤣🤡🤡
I have been telling friends for YEARS I miss 1992 cartoon network back when these kind of cartoons were all they showed or at least were prominent! And this just makes me so happy!
1992 Cartoon network was EVERYTHING. Even 93-94 when they started to add original cartoons but still had all the classic stuff. It was still a nice mix.
This is a very cool idea! I would love to see He-Man and the Masters of the Universe, She-Ra: Princess of Power, Thunder Cats, Batman: The Animated Series, Superman: The Animated Series, Justice League, Static Shock, Batman: Beyond, Young Justice, and more!
Not just Thundercats, but ALL the Rankin/Bass Cartoons from WB Discovery like Silverhawks & The Comic Strip that had Karate Kat, Street Frogs, & Tigersharks.
I was literally born at the same time as Cartoon Network, so it was how I was introduced to all the classics. Therefore, I am beyond happy that today’s kids will get to experience the same joy for themselves
I can’t wait for this! Since a lot of my favorite shows these days have been getting canceled and the shows that are airing or streaming now, minus anime shows, aren’t as good or just sucks. I’ve always loved watching old cartoons. Takes me back to the days where they actually put in effort in these shows. Hope I’m able to get it
I’m actually excited for this! I haven’t revisited a lot of these cartoons in a long time and some of them I’ve never actually seen before. It’s refreshing and reassuring to see modern audiences have an interest in classic cartoons. :)
Bummer about what happened after Showdown. Unfortunately unless they get some big backers again, Showdown was the peak, which is nothing to be ashamed of. Great series.
It'd be really cool if they could get some of the iconic Rankin-Bass specials to air during the holidays! Probably a pipe dream considering the complicated licensing of the specials but a man can dream lol
This makes me very happy, because Toon In with Me shaowed a lot of classic Looney Tunes shorts thay Ive never seen before. Way more than even old school Boomerang did. That is why I love them and to see them do this, well that makes me even happier!! I hope this succeeds and I can't wait to watch!
@@vincenttorres9477Real Ghostbusters is one of the Sony cartoons that will be on this channel, so there’s a good chance JCA will be on the network in the future. Though, I believe the reason for Real Ghostbusters to be in there is because DiC made the show.
Honestly This Is The Greatest Thing Since Boomerang that Hanna Barbera Library so many shows I Remember and Don't remember Early 2000's nostalgia kicking In good for MeTV so proud
I caught their cartoon block once and it was AMAZING. Whoever programs that block actually knows cartoons and cares about quality. The Popeye shorts were 100% Fletcher Popeye, none of that Famous Studios era crap. Looney Tunes was LOONEY TUNES, not six Daffy Duck vs. Speedy Gonzales shorts, two Bosko and Honey numbers and one great one. EVERYTHING was the good stuff.
Free channel of 24/7 cartoons?! What a blast from the past! It's like a time capsule of the premier Cartoon Network. I hope they make an action block for after school. Like Toonami. I've got to sit my nephew and niece in front of the TV to watch this channel. Raise them up right.
I'm just as excited as you are about MeTV Toons. Some of those shows took me by surprise. As for what I hope to see, I would love to see some love for the public domain cartoons out there. And since Steamboat Willie has gone public a few months ago... But for what it's worth, Coyote vs. Acme as a MeTV Toons exclusive? THAT would be worth the price of admission.
The thing thats funny to mee is that boomerang still exist. and it actually has been getting progressively better. For a long time it was just Tom and Jerry and Smurfs. Now theyve actually started adding more scooby doo cartoons, jetsons, flintstones/ flinstones kids, Wacky Races, Jellystone/ Yogi Bear. I really hope MeTV toons has some early 00's shows too. Basically anything that Genndy Tartakovsky made should be on that channel too
I've been following the development of MeTV Toons for months, and this station is going to be STACKED. All the right people are involved (it's from Weigel Broadcasting and Warner Bros Discovery is a partner on this channel), they're going deep in the archives and bringing in shows from everybody but Disney (Disney never shares anything with anybody), and they're unearthing a lot of shows that haven't been seen on broadcast TV in decades (some even half a century). This is NOT a children's channel, which shows that this team understands the assignment. Personally speaking, I hope we get a lot of action shows from the past, especially those old Hanna-Barbera Super Adventures shows, the Filmation DC shows, Superfriends, Centurions, Voltron, He-Man, She-Ra, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (hey, Paramount owns the '80s show, and they're providing Betty Boop and Terrytoons to the channel, so it could happen!), Batman: The Animated Series, Mighty Max, and Men in Black. I really hope it gets a local affiliate in my part of the world. We need a station like MeTV Toons now more than ever.
When I heard this, i was excited AF! CAPTAIN PLANET, THE MASK? 2 Shows that I always wished had DVD Complete series additions now back in circulation?! I was already sold! I wouldn't mind if they had a streaming app service so I could binge watch them all!!
If they do a type of history show, i hope it's kinda like the old Toon Heads show on Cartoon Network. they'd give a brief history of the cartoons while playing the cartoon in question. It was really cool hearing about the events behind the cartoons and some of the inspirations too.
3:27 To answer your question the name of this show is Marine Boy. It was dubbed I think by the same people who worked on Speed Racer, Gigantor and even the OG Astro Boy series!
This is my childhood being born in 84 and watching cartoons every Saturday morning and in the mornings before heading off to school. I can still remember making a bowl of cereal and sitting in front of the TV watching the best cartoons every Saturday. Me TV Toons reminds me of when Cartoon network and Boomerang launched and we got to see all these classic cartoons all the time until streaming ruined it and Warner bros decided they wanted people to pay a yearly subscription of $40 to watch all these classic cartoons. Hopefully there will be classic cartoon movies shown in primetime and on the weekends.
My dad watched network TV a lot, and he would put MeTV on during Saturday mornings, because they air re-runs of Loony Toons like the Saturday Morning Cartoons we all grew up with. This doesn't surprise me at all TBH
I loved The Real Ghostbusters. That was my favourite cartoon in the 1980's. I hope they don't show that Slimer portion of the Animated Series. In Canada, our network was called TeleToon. I also liked Tales From The Cryptkeeper, Addams' Family, Beetlejuice, Adventures of Tin-Tin, Alvin and the Chipmunks.
@@josephclegg3562 I would be incredibly disappointed if they did not air the vintage episodes of the Ninja Turtles and He-Man. Both cartoons started in the 80's with the TMNT show originally showing for the 1st time in Dec. of 1987 and the Masters of the Universe 1st episode starting on Sept. of 1983.
Well if CN/Boomerang aren't going to do their jobs, it only makes sense that someone's going to fill that void. Ok I was already sold on this by them having Gobots and Xiolin Showdown. But Speed Racer, The Mask and Freakazoid!! Now they're just showing off.
Here’s the thing though. When Cartoon Network came out I was living with my parents & we didn’t have cable. Same for Boomerang. Now that I’m an adult & I have cable (because where I live doesn’t get OTA reception) I ONCE AGAIN cannot watch the 24/7 cartoon channel 😭. But God bless. We need this!
That's a bummer. Are you sure you don't have the MeTV channels on your cable package? I don't watch them over the air, I watch them on cable. There's the main MeTV channel with Toon in with Me and Svengoolie and the MeTV+ that shows Mod squad.
My childhood years was lucky enough to have Saturday Morning cartoons and every generation up til about 2000 hasn't. At least this generation and going forward with TH-cam can find out what they're missing and talk about the classic animation with their parents and grandparents.
Them putting Xiolin Showdown on here fills me with so much hope. Crossing my fingers HARD for Duck Dodgers, Mucha Lucha, Megas XLR, Jackie Chan Adventures , Swat Kats and all the DCAU cartoons!
Cool! That trailer takesme back to the first ones for Cartoon Network 32 years ago, like the clip of Yogi saying "We're talking tooni here!" (yet it was two more years before I got a cable service that had it). As CN began adding more and more new stuff, and even Boomerang eventually followed, many of us wished for a new "classic CN" to come up somewhere.
I love this. Me and my dad used to watch the old Boomerang that featured a ton of Hanna Barbera cartoons. I'm glad I can watch them again sprinkled in with some cartoons when I was a kid
Im so glad we have this to air. Streaming Services really f'ed up animation lately with removal of most classic shows. This will be a breath of fresh air.
Or… you could just watch it on streaming whenever you want. Watch whatever you want. But LOL at those the old losers here crying that they can’t watch racist cartoons anymore. 🤣🤣🤡
I wish MeTV was properly carried in Canada. Occasionally, one of the American channels that my cable carries gives up a few hours to MeTV, and it's always a kick.
Xiaolin Showdown does stick out so much in the graphic with with classic cartoon characters from the 20th century. I haven't seen that show since it came out 20 years ago when I was a kid.
Andre, chill. You cool as hell homie. Hoping I can meet you at a convention sometime. There are plenty of us out here grown and miss the good old days of entertainment.
Cartoons that should be added to the list. 1. Animaniacs 2. Tiny Toon Adventures 3. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 4. Alvin and the Chipmunks 5. He-Man 6. Beetlejuice 7. Captain Planet and the Planeteers 8. Fantastic Max 9. Tasmania 10. Sylvester and Tweety Mysteries
Now that Inspector Gadget is in this new channel, I hope MeTV broadcasts one of The Super Mario Bros Super Shows, it was one of my favorite show on DVD but never seen them on broadcast TV which is my biggest let down as a kid. Mario is my favorite video game franchise so to see everyone else like Pokémon, Sonic, Kirby, Pac-Man & even FZero has its own show & got aired on America’s TV but not Mario was really sad. My guess is that DiC was wanted to get the Mario shows get a rerun but Nintendo is charging too much for their licensing.
Roku has channels dedicated to the Mario and Sonic cartoons from the DiC library on their Roku Guide, a feature found on Roku players and Roku smart TVs...
I'm 38 and holy crap this is definitely Cartoon Network and Boomerang on steroids. As someone that watched Saturday morning cartoons throughout my childhood and loves the classic cartoons from back then, this is awesome. Cartoon Network and Boomerang has not been the same in a while, But Here Comes me TV toons to the rescue. I will most definitely be checking this out with my young ones.
The young guy on the dolphin was Marine boy Japanese anime that aired in the early seventies along with speed racer end the original Lion King Kimba the White Lion.
Not to start an argument... The Lion King was _inspired_ by Kimba (and Hamlet), but it's not the same story AT ALL. So many people will claim Disney just copied Kimba, but if they had actually watched Kimba they would know that's not true.
@@WxIxLxLxIxAxMxS I grew up on Kimba and I watch the movie that they tried to block called the jungle emperor about kemba and his wife and their two little kids I wonder why that sounds familiar. Maybe you need to watch the jungle emperor because it was started before The Lion King. It had to go on hiatus because the Creator passed.. Disney been the large conglomerate tried to ban it from even being shown at Can festivals you know the independence. Disney has a history of taking things that don't belong to them and branding it as their own.
Hell yeah this is a dream come true! I eagerly await this event. I already love MeTV so this is even more of a treat. Thanks for the update and the info.
I did pick up an antenna for OTA stuff mostly so we could watch the holiday parades and whatnot, and I think we get MeTV with our setup? so I'm hoping that means when MeTV Toons launches we might be able to pick it up as well! definitely excited there's a good chunk of shows in the announcement that I'm looking forward to revisiting, and then the stuff that they haven't mentioned yet, definitely a lot of possibilities there! so definitely keeping an eye on this for whenever they launch!
I'm so excited about this channel! I really missed the days of Boomerang. I would watch that channel like non-stop. I see that Boomerang is trying to go back to classic cartoons, but it's not the same. They only have like a certain amount of shows that they choose to air. I hope they have cool bumpers between shows like Boomerang did. It's great that we are getting something like that again, plus more! I really do hope as well that they put it on Tubi or Pluto. Heck, even it's own app. That would be great. I can't wait for the launch!
With Xaolin Showdown being there, I hope they add more classics from KidsWB like Jackie Chan Adventures, Mucha Lucha, Static Shock, Ozzy and Drix, etc.
Funny part if ME TV on Saturday mornings did thus but for them to make it an entire channel is even better. I would like some MEtv dedicated to just cartoons.
Exactly, I don't know why more stations aren't doing this! They complain about ratings and how broadcast tv is dying but there is literally nothing to watch! There is no reason why they can't have an afternoon cartoon block or Saturday/Sunday morning block of cartoons! They don't even have to spend money on new shows being made just air old ones that they already own. They do this with sitcoms and drama shows. Why not cartoons?
Can we please get Taz Mania on here? You know, that solo Taz Manian Devil show from the 90s? Let’s get even more obscure, uncommon releases in here too. 🤞
@@shimyra18 Currently? For the US? I never discovered that unless it was actually a thing not all too long ago. Boomerang be all over the place. I thought they air all whatever they have all week? But to be fair, I haven’t kept up since they started airing way more early 2000s, even very recent shows.
@@shimyra18 Well thanks for clarifying it’s available to watch somewhere. I know for a long time that show was oddly hard to come by. And I have no idea why Max (HBO) never had it.
I do enjoy having channels like this and a lot of the stuff on Tubi that you can just have on in the background while doing other things. I'm never going to sit down and watch an episode from start to finish since they're so second nature at this point, but they're the perfect ambiance when you're working at home.
This is awesome!! I hope they get this in the UK though and this it becomes available on the Firestick like Pluto TV, Freevee etc.. no one has old school digital antennas now, I don't know anyone who has one anymore however hopefully they'll evolve this and release it intentionally this way .... oh and add some Atom Ant and Fly Tales, two very good and very underrated cartoons!! 🙏🏼😊
The thing is, Cartoon Network at first probably sounded like a crazy idea by Ted Turner back in the early 90s. Rerunning shows that by then were 10+ years old? No audience... or so they thought. I really feel like this could find a new generation of kids who are just naturally curious or maybe even bored of modernity. Just like when the 90's kids were busy looking backwards.
I think it'll be broadcast in SD 480i. I hope they transition to HD soon, because even for old content, the HD will allow the channel to broadcast with higher video bitrate, looking better in our tvs than the compression they use for 480i SD.

Great idea! Those were all shows that helped defined our childhoods back then and still resonate with us today.
I will like them get Original Dragon Ball Z not Kai and Dragon Ball Original Series
Tarzan Lord of the Jungle
Maybe they can get the different Mario Cartoons as well
I remember Cartoon Network used to have a cartoon show where they told a bit of history about the shorts before they play them. Would like for something like that to come back.

This makes me very happy, because Toon In with Me shaowed a lot of classic Looney Tunes shorts thay Ive never seen before. Way more than even old school Boomerang did. That is why I love them and to see them do this, well that makes me even happier!! I hope this succeeds and I can't wait to watch!
THEY'RE BRINGING XIAOLIN SHOWDOWN TO THIS SERVICE!!!! WHAT THE YES!!!
A few more shows like xiaolin showdown and they can have their own version of Boomeraction
I agree I hope they can get Jackie Chan Adventures in the future
@@vincenttorres9477Real Ghostbusters is one of the Sony cartoons that will be on this channel, so there’s a good chance JCA will be on the network in the future.
Though, I believe the reason for Real Ghostbusters to be in there is because DiC made the show.
No joke i saw omi in the thumbnail and had to double take before screaming
You know, I kinda want Xiaolin Chronicles on this channel as well.
Oh, and Pokémon.
Honestly This Is The Greatest Thing Since Boomerang that Hanna Barbera Library so many shows I Remember and Don't remember Early 2000's nostalgia kicking In good for MeTV so proud
I've reached the age that Xiaolin Showdown is considered a "classic" cartoon now.
Same
I would totally love to see Batman TAS and a lotta other good old 60's and 90's cartoons whoever made MeTV a antenna standing ovation. ❤️👏
So, boomerang 2.0?
Yes
Boomerang done right
I caught their cartoon block once and it was AMAZING. Whoever programs that block actually knows cartoons and cares about quality. The Popeye shorts were 100% Fletcher Popeye, none of that Famous Studios era crap. Looney Tunes was LOONEY TUNES, not six Daffy Duck vs. Speedy Gonzales shorts, two Bosko and Honey numbers and one great one. EVERYTHING was the good stuff.
Same although the commercials are a bit too long
@@gregory7320 Yeah. I don't watch over-air TV for just that reason. Somebody happened to have it on and I couldn't help being impressed.
Ive been watching me tv lately for classic cartoons
same
@@tbone8612same here. It’s going to be so nice to see the old school cartoons
Free channel of 24/7 cartoons?! What a blast from the past!
It's like a time capsule of the premier Cartoon Network. I hope they make an action block for after school. Like Toonami.
I've got to sit my nephew and niece in front of the TV to watch this channel. Raise them up right.
By all means, please do. These are the kinds of shows that our kids and grandkids deserve to really be watching.
I'm just as excited as you are about MeTV Toons. Some of those shows took me by surprise.
As for what I hope to see, I would love to see some love for the public domain cartoons out there. And since Steamboat Willie has gone public a few months ago...
But for what it's worth, Coyote vs. Acme as a MeTV Toons exclusive? THAT would be worth the price of admission.
I would love to see Steamboat Willie and other public domain cartoons get shown on METV Toons too. Maybe one day.
Hope they eventually get Bionic 6, Galaxy Rangers, Inhumanoids, Visionaries, Mighty Mouse, C.O.P.S, Thundercats, Silver Hawks and Transformers!
A place where I can watch Secret Squirrel, oh happy day. I hope they decide to put this as a live channel on Pluto Tv
The thing thats funny to mee is that boomerang still exist. and it actually has been getting progressively better. For a long time it was just Tom and Jerry and Smurfs. Now theyve actually started adding more scooby doo cartoons, jetsons, flintstones/ flinstones kids, Wacky Races, Jellystone/ Yogi Bear. I really hope MeTV toons has some early 00's shows too. Basically anything that Genndy Tartakovsky made should be on that channel too
I've been following the development of MeTV Toons for months, and this station is going to be STACKED. All the right people are involved (it's from Weigel Broadcasting and Warner Bros Discovery is a partner on this channel), they're going deep in the archives and bringing in shows from everybody but Disney (Disney never shares anything with anybody), and they're unearthing a lot of shows that haven't been seen on broadcast TV in decades (some even half a century). This is NOT a children's channel, which shows that this team understands the assignment. Personally speaking, I hope we get a lot of action shows from the past, especially those old Hanna-Barbera Super Adventures shows, the Filmation DC shows, Superfriends, Centurions, Voltron, He-Man, She-Ra, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (hey, Paramount owns the '80s show, and they're providing Betty Boop and Terrytoons to the channel, so it could happen!), Batman: The Animated Series, Mighty Max, and Men in Black. I really hope it gets a local affiliate in my part of the world. We need a station like MeTV Toons now more than ever.
@@jeffharrisTXB nickelodeon owns ninja turtles they cant
I’m 37 still watch the classic cartoons & not ashamed to admit it either 😊
This is so cool. MeTv's selection of live action shows (Bonanza, MASH, Batman) is great.
When I heard this, i was excited AF! CAPTAIN PLANET, THE MASK? 2 Shows that I always wished had DVD Complete series additions now back in circulation?! I was already sold! I wouldn't mind if they had a streaming app service so I could binge watch them all!!
I want them to air the Laugh-A-lympics. I rarely see it on anymore during the actual Olympics.
If they do a type of history show, i hope it's kinda like the old Toon Heads show on Cartoon Network. they'd give a brief history of the cartoons while playing the cartoon in question. It was really cool hearing about the events behind the cartoons and some of the inspirations too.
Considering it's being headed by a historian, it's safe to say it's in production.
3:27 To answer your question the name of this show is Marine Boy. It was dubbed I think by the same people who worked on Speed Racer, Gigantor and even the OG Astro Boy series!
Thank you!!!
@@BlackNerdComedy 😁
This is my childhood being born in 84 and watching cartoons every Saturday morning and in the mornings before heading off to school. I can still remember making a bowl of cereal and sitting in front of the TV watching the best cartoons every Saturday. Me TV Toons reminds me of when Cartoon network and Boomerang launched and we got to see all these classic cartoons all the time until streaming ruined it and Warner bros decided they wanted people to pay a yearly subscription of $40 to watch all these classic cartoons. Hopefully there will be classic cartoon movies shown in primetime and on the weekends.
My dad watched network TV a lot, and he would put MeTV on during Saturday mornings, because they air re-runs of Loony Toons like the Saturday Morning Cartoons we all grew up with. This doesn't surprise me at all TBH
My inner 80s 10yr old self is screaming with joy!!
"The Real Ghostbusters" have also been licensed to air on MeTV Toons.
I loved The Real Ghostbusters. That was my favourite cartoon in the 1980's. I hope they don't show that Slimer portion of the Animated Series. In Canada, our network was called TeleToon. I also liked Tales From The Cryptkeeper, Addams' Family, Beetlejuice, Adventures of Tin-Tin, Alvin and the Chipmunks.
I hope He-Man and the Masters of the Universe and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles air on the MeTV Toons Network.
@@josephclegg3562 I would be incredibly disappointed if they did not air the vintage episodes of the Ninja Turtles and He-Man. Both cartoons started in the 80's with the TMNT show originally showing for the 1st time in Dec. of 1987 and the Masters of the Universe 1st episode starting on Sept. of 1983.
Oh, this is truly fantastic. Truly, truly fantastic. My childhood on one wonderful channel. Cannot wait 😃😃
Well if CN/Boomerang aren't going to do their jobs, it only makes sense that someone's going to fill that void.
Ok I was already sold on this by them having Gobots and Xiolin Showdown. But Speed Racer, The Mask and Freakazoid!! Now they're just showing off.
Here’s the thing though. When Cartoon Network came out I was living with my parents & we didn’t have cable. Same for Boomerang. Now that I’m an adult & I have cable (because where I live doesn’t get OTA reception) I ONCE AGAIN cannot watch the 24/7 cartoon channel 😭.
But God bless. We need this!
That's a bummer. Are you sure you don't have the MeTV channels on your cable package? I don't watch them over the air, I watch them on cable. There's the main MeTV channel with Toon in with Me and Svengoolie and the MeTV+ that shows Mod squad.
it's insane we're back to this
so true
My childhood years was lucky enough to have Saturday Morning cartoons and every generation up til about 2000 hasn't. At least this generation and going forward with TH-cam can find out what they're missing and talk about the classic animation with their parents and grandparents.
Black Nerd talking about MeTV let's go
Them putting Xiolin Showdown on here fills me with so much hope. Crossing my fingers HARD for Duck Dodgers, Mucha Lucha, Megas XLR, Jackie Chan Adventures , Swat Kats and all the DCAU cartoons!
And the og Teen Titians
Cool! That trailer takesme back to the first ones for Cartoon Network 32 years ago, like the clip of Yogi saying "We're talking tooni here!" (yet it was two more years before I got a cable service that had it). As CN began adding more and more new stuff, and even Boomerang eventually followed, many of us wished for a new "classic CN" to come up somewhere.
Bommerang it’s all coming back to you now
I love this. Me and my dad used to watch the old Boomerang that featured a ton of Hanna Barbera cartoons. I'm glad I can watch them again sprinkled in with some cartoons when I was a kid
Im so glad we have this to air. Streaming Services really f'ed up animation lately with removal of most classic shows. This will be a breath of fresh air.
Okay boomer.
so true
Or… you could just watch it on streaming whenever you want. Watch whatever you want. But LOL at those the old losers here crying that they can’t watch racist cartoons anymore. 🤣🤣🤡
@@AnimeBronx Wow so are you going to pay for all the steaming channels they are on? You sound like such a jerk.
@@AnimeBronx Guys this guy is a rage baiter dont give him attention
Give me some Action Cartoons and I'm in. Give me back them Thunder Cats, SilverHawks, Comic Strip, He-Man....Let's Gooooo.!!!!!
Now they just need to add Tezuka shows like _Astro Boy_ , _Kimba the White Lion_ and _Princess Knight_ . That would be awesome.
It would be funny if they advertised Astro Boy but instead showed Jetter Mars~
I wish MeTV was properly carried in Canada. Occasionally, one of the American channels that my cable carries gives up a few hours to MeTV, and it's always a kick.
Xiaolin Showdown does stick out so much in the graphic with with classic cartoon characters from the 20th century. I haven't seen that show since it came out 20 years ago when I was a kid.
Andre, chill. You cool as hell homie. Hoping I can meet you at a convention sometime. There are plenty of us out here grown and miss the good old days of entertainment.
Cartoons that should be added to the list.
1. Animaniacs
2. Tiny Toon Adventures
3. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
4. Alvin and the Chipmunks
5. He-Man
6. Beetlejuice
7. Captain Planet and the Planeteers
8. Fantastic Max
9. Tasmania
10. Sylvester and Tweety Mysteries
Now that Inspector Gadget is in this new channel, I hope MeTV broadcasts one of The Super Mario Bros Super Shows, it was one of my favorite show on DVD but never seen them on broadcast TV which is my biggest let down as a kid. Mario is my favorite video game franchise so to see everyone else like Pokémon, Sonic, Kirby, Pac-Man & even FZero has its own show & got aired on America’s TV but not Mario was really sad. My guess is that DiC was wanted to get the Mario shows get a rerun but Nintendo is charging too much for their licensing.
Roku has channels dedicated to the Mario and Sonic cartoons from the DiC library on their Roku Guide, a feature found on Roku players and Roku smart TVs...
I hope He-Man gets broadcast on this channel
@@Justin-Hill-1987 Roku is kinda mid.
If they got Johnny Bravo or Swat Kats on there its over. Sign me up.
Don't think they'll be able to air jb cuz its probably 2 controversial 4 the pan z generation
Personally i hope shows like Herculoids, Thundar the Barbarian, and maybe even the original Birdman find their way to this new channel.
I'm 38 and holy crap this is definitely Cartoon Network and Boomerang on steroids. As someone that watched Saturday morning cartoons throughout my childhood and loves the classic cartoons from back then, this is awesome. Cartoon Network and Boomerang has not been the same in a while, But Here Comes me TV toons to the rescue. I will most definitely be checking this out with my young ones.
The young guy on the dolphin was Marine boy Japanese anime that aired in the early seventies along with speed racer end the original Lion King Kimba the White Lion.
Not to start an argument... The Lion King was _inspired_ by Kimba (and Hamlet), but it's not the same story AT ALL. So many people will claim Disney just copied Kimba, but if they had actually watched Kimba they would know that's not true.
@@WxIxLxLxIxAxMxS I grew up on Kimba and I watch the movie that they tried to block called the jungle emperor about kemba and his wife and their two little kids I wonder why that sounds familiar. Maybe you need to watch the jungle emperor because it was started before The Lion King. It had to go on hiatus because the Creator passed.. Disney been the large conglomerate tried to ban it from even being shown at Can festivals you know the independence. Disney has a history of taking things that don't belong to them and branding it as their own.
Hell yeah this is a dream come true! I eagerly await this event. I already love MeTV so this is even more of a treat. Thanks for the update and the info.
Beetlejuice and The Real Ghostbusters are also gonna be on Me TV Toons
I hope so. Love both cartoons.
I did pick up an antenna for OTA stuff mostly so we could watch the holiday parades and whatnot, and I think we get MeTV with our setup? so I'm hoping that means when MeTV Toons launches we might be able to pick it up as well! definitely excited there's a good chunk of shows in the announcement that I'm looking forward to revisiting, and then the stuff that they haven't mentioned yet, definitely a lot of possibilities there! so definitely keeping an eye on this for whenever they launch!
I'm so excited about this channel! I really missed the days of Boomerang. I would watch that channel like non-stop.
I see that Boomerang is trying to go back to classic cartoons, but it's not the same. They only have like a certain amount of shows that they choose to air.
I hope they have cool bumpers between shows like Boomerang did. It's great that we are getting something like that again, plus more! I really do hope as well that they put it on Tubi or Pluto. Heck, even it's own app. That would be great. I can't wait for the launch!
With Xaolin Showdown being there, I hope they add more classics from KidsWB like Jackie Chan Adventures, Mucha Lucha, Static Shock, Ozzy and Drix, etc.
Sweet! Now if only MeTV would work out a deal to be on TH-camTV, I'd be set.
Antenna is free and better. No one uses TH-cam TV
Funny part if ME TV on Saturday mornings did thus but for them to make it an entire channel is even better. I would like some MEtv dedicated to just cartoons.
I hope to see gargoyles ,mummies alive, silver hawks, lone star, dragon flyand symbiotic titans
Hope to see the classic Animaniacs and tiny toons back on thier channel too!
Season 1 of The Mask Animated series was released on DVD back in 2018 by Warner Home Archive. They never released S2 or S3 though.
I have it on Blu-ray.
I love it! It would definitely get kids back into the old "Saturday Morning" excited mood!
Exactly, I don't know why more stations aren't doing this! They complain about ratings and how broadcast tv is dying but there is literally nothing to watch! There is no reason why they can't have an afternoon cartoon block or Saturday/Sunday morning block of cartoons! They don't even have to spend money on new shows being made just air old ones that they already own. They do this with sitcoms and drama shows. Why not cartoons?
Can we please get Taz Mania on here? You know, that solo Taz Manian Devil show from the 90s? Let’s get even more obscure, uncommon releases in here too. 🤞
They show Taz mania on Saturday nights on boomerang
@@shimyra18 Currently? For the US? I never discovered that unless it was actually a thing not all too long ago. Boomerang be all over the place. I thought they air all whatever they have all week? But to be fair, I haven’t kept up since they started airing way more early 2000s, even very recent shows.
@@MrGamer07100 yep, I watched it last Saturday night.
@@shimyra18 Well thanks for clarifying it’s available to watch somewhere. I know for a long time that show was oddly hard to come by. And I have no idea why Max (HBO) never had it.
This sounds like the perfect solution to the streaming era. Reminds me of early 90a Cartoon Network
I'm hoping we see the Beetlejuice cartoon on their sometime in the future!
Beetlejuice is on the list.
@@bigglou Is it really?
@@NardDawg101 Yep. You go to the website; it is constantly updating with new announcements and Beetlejuice is one of them.
The one with the boy in the red suit and the mermaid is Marine Boy. I use to watch that show when it came on back in the day.
I do enjoy having channels like this and a lot of the stuff on Tubi that you can just have on in the background while doing other things. I'm never going to sit down and watch an episode from start to finish since they're so second nature at this point, but they're the perfect ambiance when you're working at home.
This is awesome!! I hope they get this in the UK though and this it becomes available on the Firestick like Pluto TV, Freevee etc.. no one has old school digital antennas now, I don't know anyone who has one anymore however hopefully they'll evolve this and release it intentionally this way .... oh and add some Atom Ant and Fly Tales, two very good and very underrated cartoons!! 🙏🏼😊
"Denver, The Last Dinosaur" please! Also maybe "Flint, The Time Detective"?
I watch MeTV all the time. A all cartoon Me TV channel? Im in toon paradise ✨️🥰
The thing is, Cartoon Network at first probably sounded like a crazy idea by Ted Turner back in the early 90s. Rerunning shows that by then were 10+ years old? No audience... or so they thought.
I really feel like this could find a new generation of kids who are just naturally curious or maybe even bored of modernity. Just like when the 90's kids were busy looking backwards.
Turner made a dumb mistake by selling his company to Warner Bros
Tubi app has most of these shows on there.
I think it'll be broadcast in SD 480i. I hope they transition to HD soon, because even for old content, the HD will allow the channel to broadcast with higher video bitrate, looking better in our tvs than the compression they use for 480i SD.
Here's to hoping Bionic Six, Centurions and C.O.P.S get added later on
MeTv is bringing back the Saturday morning cartoon tradition. Get the bowl of sugary cereal of your choice ready.
Give me the Pebbles and Bam Bam Show and Yo Yogi 😂
