Toonami Rewind: Adult Swim's Second Nostalgia Block
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 21 ส.ค. 2024
- Adult Swim has yet another nostalgia block on the way, this time under the name Toonami Rewind which fill feature anime titles that aired on Cartoon Network in the mid 2000's with that style of branding. Daytime Toonami is back, but in a limited format every Friday starting May 31! The anime that will be showcased are Sailor Moon, Naruto, and Dragon Ball Z Kai!
Hopefully this won't mark the true downfall of Checkered Past, as it will now only air on Monday through Thursday with the current Friday schedule being moved to Thursdays. It's only a matter of time honestly... I doubt the block will be discontinued anytime soon, but if it does end up being removed, they'll move the shows either to Boomerang or more likely MeTV Toons!
Speaking of, there's a few quick updates regarding MeTV Toons such as even more shows being planned to air on the channel later down the line such as Wait Til Your Father Gets Home along with a few rumored shows such as Pink Panther, Terry Toons, and Dexter's Laboratory.

it's funny that Adult Swim announces Toonami Rewind RIGHT as i was watching Cereal Milk VHS's channel on TH-cam, which has old Toonami airings that you can watch on TH-cam from his channel, but hey i get to watch Toonami at a reasonably earlier time rather then midnight for 1 hour before bed again
What a coincidence!
@@ArtieRaccoonReviewssoon as METV toons comes out boomerang checkered past and Nicktoons are done for, even though they killed Nicktoons and it's because a SpongeBob channel
@@ArtieRaccoonReviews it is indeed a coincidence, and because i found channels like Cereal Milk VHS, Toonami Rewind is optional for me
@@ryanwilkins2233now we need a teen nick rewind and a nicktoons rewind
@@ryanwilkins2233And now Teennick is NickToons: The Sequel.
As someone who who wasn't born in the 90s I can see this as a great opportunity for people that haven't watched anime for the first time
I couldn't agree more, and it will help younger audiences who weren't around when Toonami first came out get into these shows.
At least it’s a start for these 90s animated cartoons show 👍👍👍 hope there’s more in the future
Sailor Moon being back on CN (indirectly) is amazing imo.
Also I think Pink Panther definitely could air on MeTV Toons as Saturday mornings MeTV airs some Pink Panther shorts
When's the last time it even aired?
Sailor Moon S and Super S BOTH first aired in 2000 on Toonami September onwards for Super S and I believe June to end of August for S.
Let's hope it's the VIZ and not the original DIC dub since that can no longer be done today and we're not in the early Toonami era then again that part is also troubling aside from rip offs there's also Anti-LGBTQ groups to worry about and groups saying things like THINK OF THE CHILDREN or acting really nuts among the Karens, PTC now PTMC (Parents Television Council) and 1 Million Moms and also hope they get every number of those correct on those shows like Sailor Moon and Naruto since some other parts can screw with fans missing episodes or not getting it full with the higher ups.
@@kellychuang8373 It's already confirmed that it's the VIZ dub and I doubt they'd do a switch up on the viewers. Plus I don't think Wildbrain (the current owners of the DIC dub) even has the dub anymore.
@@kellychuang8373don't worry they already have viz dub cuzz I can hear her voice from the start toonami promo lol
Toonami Rewind is a great idea but they should air on Saturdays starting at 5pm since they’re only airing Fox shows at the moment.
Mon-Fri: Checkered Past
Sat: Toonami Rewind
Sun: ACME Night
I was confused to why they just didn't air Toonami Rewind on Saturdays since it's just King of the Hill reruns that day and let Checkered Past have Friday
@@ArtieRaccoonReviews Or better yet move the regular Toonami block to 8:00pm instead of having us waiting until Midnight. They air King of the Hill Reruns every other day so [adult swim] can give those FOX reruns a break for saturdays. Plus they have the 5:00pm hour anyways so use that time for their regular programming then start Toonami from like 8:00pm to 11:00pm there problem solved.
Wow, now AS has three blocks 😲
@@foxboxarchives2059Yeah, Toonami should start around then, or start it's broadcasts at around 9pm or 10, because midnight is basically early Sunday morning.
It's really cool to see Sailor Moon on this block, and I personally loved the Viz dub so I'm glad to see that's the version that they went with :D
I hope there's more to come!
I would never imagine Sailor Moon coming back on TV this is amazing! This is the first time that Sailor Moon has been on TV for over 21 years since 2003.
It hasn't aired on Cartoon Network since 2003?!
Since 2002 for Toonami back then, and then in 2004, they've aired Sailor Moon on syndication in the United States for the very last time before Sailor Moon license got expired.
@@SSJ491 Expired and put on lockdown.
Yeah I know, I researched it last decade.
Let's hope they either keep the episodes and the exact order and stick to the VIZ uncut since when that first aired it was accepted at the time not now then again when that was happening there was no Internet nor Smartphones as we have today either.
It's nice to see Sailor Moon on modern Toonami in a way. It'd be nice to see Yu Yu Hakusho on the block at some time as well.
Why can’t Canadian television be like this??? This is genuinely Amazing!!
You can blame Canadian content quotas and Corus for that...
Cancom
It's part of the reason why Adult Swim Canada had all those cringe LifeTime movies a few years ago on the schedule
Took long enough!! Toonami decides to air on a decent timeslot by doing this new Toonami Rewind! :) Though some people are not too impressed because they're airing DBZ Kai and not the original DBZ Dub.
I predicted this on my ideal schedule for Adult Swim a few months ago, I'm surprised it actually came true!
1:43 maybe for the cartoon cartoons but Fosters did air on Kids WB around 2005.
Foster's Home and Codename: Kids Next Door briefly aired on Kids WB in 2004-2005 as a cross-promotion for when they were still new shows
Nice you are the only source i trust to keep me updated on metv toons. Hopefully they add the transformers. Kind of sucks how they will eventually take out cartoons only for them to return in who knows how long.
I really appreciate that
@@ArtieRaccoonReviews no thank you, me and my dad are looking forward to this.
I hope MeTv Toons shows classic holiday specials such as the Halloween Tree, The Thanksgiving that Almost Wasn’t and the Garfield specials in the future.
Maybe even the Peanuts specials!
In appropriate timign?
Plus courage , Ed’s are all currently on DVD complete sets , Along with fosters home , and soon ppg dexters lab and probably Billy and Mandy later on if they haven’t already written them off yet
Fun fact
Dexter’s Lab used to air on TBS a day before CN
So it’s not the first time that CN show aired on broadcast tv
And TNT!
Astro Boy?, Hamtaro?, Bleach?, Gundam?
I remember back when Hamtaro was universally hated in the early to mid 2000's for no apparent reason
I want all 4 of those.
Astro Boy, Bleach, and Gundam will probably be on Toonami Rewind. Hamtaro I don't see being put on. It was only on the old Toonami because back then, the creators had no say on what could air on the block, and Hamtaro was one of the two shows CN higher ups in that era forced them to air.
What about tenchi, outlaw star, robotech, ronin warriors, gundam wing and g gundam.
I'd love to see Dexter's Laboratory on MeTV Toons! If it comes, it might get its TV-G rating back!
I agree with you
I am doubting mid-kids television cartoons such as early Nicktoons will come back on metv toons but I hope they will someday. It would be so cool
Hopefully this isn't a sign of Toonami disappearing from Saturday nights. It's bad enough the block has been getting shortened over the last few years, I'd hate to see it completely replaced with a 2-hour block on Fridays.
Nope, Toonami Rewind was launched because of how well Saturday nights have been doing!
Cyborg 009, G Gundam, and Yu Yu hakusho would all be cool to see.
i hope the toonami rewind block gets pokemon
It's too kid-friendly for Adult Swim, but it could end up on MeTV Toons!
it’ll end up on MeTV Toons.
@@Eradog2012 I agree since we already have some old anime show coming to that channel already.
@@courage1363 true
Does Disney have the rights to Pokémon still?
I guess TV networks have decided its the season of throwback animation this summer lmao
Better than new crap, especially since networks pretended that old shows didn't exist from 2016-2022
About the Rewind: I know they didn’t show any of the STAR BLAZERS series (both original and reboot), but if they can add that on the line-up…that would be great. (Course, I’m still waiting for UZUMAKI. Been jonsing for that show for a long time!)
About MeToons TV add-on: Would be wild if the network did something similar like the original METV Saturday Night Block where they air SVENGOOLIE with his collection of cult classic movies and then go into a binge bloc of classic Sci-Fi & Horror shows straight into morning. Basically, do Sventoonie (Toonie’s alter ego from TOON IN WITH ME) hosting a selection of animated features with something of the same shtick you expect from the man himself and then proceed with a mix of Hanna Barbera’s action fare like SPACE GHOST, JONNY QUEST, etc. as well as Gerry Anderson’s Supermarionation series like THUNDERBIRDS, STINGRAY, SUPERCAR, etc. and classic Anime such as GIGANTOR, STAR BLAZERS and the like. Such a block would bring in a lot of fans young and old. (And if they include COURAGE THE COWARDLY DOG in that line-up for the Horror flavor the way KOLCHAK: THE NIGHT STALKER does for METV’s Saturday, so much the better.)
As for the revelation that WAIT TIL YOUR FATHER GETS HOME might be airing make me wonder if METOONS TV could be venturing into mature programming. If so, then I wouldn’t be surprised if they try FIST OF THE NORTH STAR and other edgier work to test the waters.
Wait Til Your Father Gets Home is a very important series in my opinion and never got the attention it deserves
Man maybe well get shows that aird on toonami from early 2000s like zach bell boo bo bo rave master yu yu hakusho
It is sad that Checkered Past will be loosing a day starting next week for the time being, but it is great that there will be more shows coming even though I am not an anime person. Maybe eventually Checkered Past can expand it's time in other ways, such as coming on another day of the week, like Sunday since many people have work the next day. I am sure that Checkered Past will not be going anywhere any time soon.
I would love to see Checkered Past expand. One example is that they could restore the adult swim timing to how it was before by ending at like 9, or something. Also they need to cancel cartoonito it’s useless
@@0xm I agree with you! Cartoonito only has one hour on Cartoon Network on the weekdays.
Better yet, relocate Checkered Past to MeTV Toons
Take notes nick rewind ❤️
That's Why They Removed nickrewind
I don’t understand why Nick rewind was quietly shut down? That was golden. Nickelodeon now is a poor broken shell if what it once was. If I ever start actively watching Nick again that’s the only way.
@@0xm NickRewind shut down because of Nick trying to entice viewers to watch their classics on damn Paramount+.
@@annamorearchives You're right, that's the exact reason why NickRewind was discontinued!
Well for my picks would be:
Yu Yu Hakusho
Ranma 1/2
Demon Slayer
Dragon Ball
One Piece
Yu-Gi-Oh!
Transformers Cybertron
Kill La Kill
Demon Slayer and Kill La Kill might be too new yet. Rewind seems to be anime 20-30 years old.
As much I love ranma 1/2 I doubt they add it due to how irrelevant it is
That and its the only series that really never got a official English dub on Cable TV Inuyasha/Yashahime Princess Half Demon did and are made by the same creator.
What no four hour teen titans go block?
A gift from god
Underdog was actually produced by a company called Total TeleVision Productions. Though it does make me wonder what they'll do with the "Go Go Gophers" segments as they are considered wildly racist by today's P.C. standards
You are correct. Jay Ward gave us “Rocky and Bullwinkle,” “Dudley Do-Right,” “Tom Slick,” “Super Chicken,” and “George of the Jungle.”
Yup
@@GrouchMan21 -A couple of honorable mentions from the Ward canon: “Fractured Fairy Tales,” and “The Adventures of Peabody and Sherman.”
Yes. I'm well aware of those Jay Ward creations as well.
On a side note: Tennessee Tuxedo and Inspector Gadget shared the same voice actor originally. Both were voiced by the late great Don Adams
They could just put a disclaimer saying that they are only airing it for historical purposes
My version of Cartoonito USA schedule this will include 6 shows 730am - 830am monday 730am Bugs Bunny builders 745am Thomas and friends all engines go 8am Numberblocks 815am batwheels Tuesday 730am batwheels 745am Jessica‘s little big world8am jessica’s little big world 815am Lucas the spider Wednesday 730am Numberblocks 745am batwheels 8am Lucas the spider 815am bugs Bunny builders Thursday 730am 8am Thomas and friends all engines go 815am jessica’s little big world Friday 730am batwheels 745am Lucas the spider 8am Numberblocks 815am Thomas and friends all engines go and remember Numberblocks Lucas the spider and Thomas and friends all engines go they are not on Cartoonito USA anymore and this isn’t the real schedule of Cartoonito usa this is just my version
Can’t wait
It's out now!
Adult Swim was always one of my go to networks and im so glad they did this though it would be better if they would do it more like a Checkered past version of CC Fridays but Cartoon Network is imploding right before our eyes. As for MeTV Toons their definitely Targeting the Old Turner TBS/TNT/Cartoon Network Era when it was Atlanta Based.
The problem is that Checkered Past isn't taking enough risk and sticking with the same bunch of shows rather than expanding to the mid 2000's. But I'm glad that MeTV Toons cares about the people who grew up with the Turner days of Cartoon Network.
In the future they will probably air Tom rugger's show Dexter's Lab Ed Edd n Eddy and courage the cowardly Dog, Rocko's modern life and the spunko episode of Ren and stimpy, Sabrina the animated series, oggy and the cockroaches, and this is a weird pick but HihipuffyAmiyumi
No Nickelodeon shows will air on MeTV Toons as it is a partnership with Warner Bros, not Viacom or Paramount.
@@ArtieRaccoonReviewsThe Ripping Friends isn't own by viacom so it can air on MeTV Toons
@@ArtieRaccoonReviewsand isn't underdog owned by Disney now, it had a movie license by Disney but I think Disney's going to know so it would have short lived run I think or METV toons asked for under Dog From Disney Disney said, y can use him but he's still are's 2:45
@@ArtieRaccoonReviewsmy sex life, get the reference 😂😂
@@ArtieRaccoonReviewsdo you think they can air space ghosts
5:19 HOLD UP... *WEDW* is having MeTV Toons??!!?? *That's a PBS station, what a real shocker!!!*
Also... I think I might have TWO MeTV Toons affiliates in my area, as I have both WJLP and WZME in my area.
I hope MeTV toons comes to WPAN as a subchannel here.
MeTV Toons airing on a PBS station is surprising, I guess they are on MeTV's side!
It is surprising someone must of pay the station to air because public stations count on membership I guess some really rich person in that area wants metv toons and maybe we get 2 or 3 metv toons in big cities the more then one metv in some cities on weigal broadcasting and other some other stations like Fox CBS or even Nextstar
@@ArtieRaccoonReviews well would be better than the boring crap PBS network airs
I think it's less of checkered past losing a day and more of an extension of checkered past
I see it more closely intertwined with Toonami rather than Checkered Past since the shows airing on Toonami Rewind are from 2004-2007, meanwhile Checkered Past is strictly pre-2004 (unless you count the Ed Edd n Eddy and Billy and Mandy episodes that originally premiered during 2004-2009)
Ed Edd n Eddy premiered on Cartoon Network in 1999.
That’s what I’m thinkin’! Rewind is Checkered Past’s anime companion. Same concept for different blocks, and they air on the same block,
Also checkered past airs on the same timeslot
Yeah I love TOONAMI Rewind i am going to watch it!
Did you end up watching it?
@@ArtieRaccoonReviews Sí
I like cel animation I remember watch season 1 of SpongeBob SquarePants use cel animation before switch to digital animation start at season 2 of SpongeBob SquarePants
Around 1999/2000, they began phasing out cel animation. King of the Hill and Ed Edd n Eddy were the two last cartoons in the US to be cel animated. The anime Sazae-San was cel animated up until 2013!
do you think Me TV toons could ever air Anime. I think it be cool if they did that for Saturday Nights and air anime from the mid 70's to the late 90's, but that's just a pipe dream.
Alright new idea, we need an anime channel on antenna TV!
I think genre blocks would actually be pretty neat.
Awesome video man 😎!
Thank you, I appreciate it!
It does disturb me that one of the most exciting things that Cartoon Network has done is bring back shows from 15-25 years ago. It's worrying indeed that they're looking to the past rather than keeping a focus on new creativity. I vaguely recall that the new policy post merger with Warner Bros. Discovery is to only develop content for pre-existing IPs meaning no risk, no innovation, just nostalgia for an era that's not coming back. How long can the network stay afloat and stay culturally relevant if this is what they're doing?
Although to be fair, at least they care about rerunning classics again compared to the 2017-2021 dark ages. Would you rather have those days come back rather than have shows that haven't been seen in forever finally return?
@@ArtieRaccoonReviews No, in the end, I'd rather they be airing quality programming, and these old shows *undeniably* meet that criteria. However, I would like them to find that happy medium between paying homage to great cartoons of the past and encouraging the next generation of animators and storytellers.
@@ArtieRaccoonReviews Who doesn't want seven hours of Teen Titans Go?
Yeah, as nice as it is to see all of the old shows back, it’s definitely a mask on the darker future expectations of CN, seeing as most of the network runs on the same cancelled shows now.
They Can Bring Back Fullmetal Alchemist Back On The Toonami Friday Block If They Want.
Maybe...?
Maybe.
And Maybe The Uncut And The Uncensored Episodes Of The Original 1986 DragonBall With Goku As A Little Boy Also.
2:50 I think you still said it wrong, I think it's pronounced too shay turtle
This is gonna become a running gag
It would probably be a smart idea to link anteanne man’s vid in the description
I completely overlooked that, thank you
Why can’t they air the DIC version
They don't have the rights, and it is also not available to them.
Can we just get Ben 10 on ME TV Toons? or Checkered Past
It would be a smart idea to relocate Checkered Past to MeTV Toons and have it air overnight on weekends or something along those lines. Meanwhile Toonami Rewind can take Checkered Past's old spot
Instead of Naruto, they should show Pokemon, and I don't know why they can't bring back the Sailor Moon DiC dub?!
Pokémon wouldn't feel right on Adult Swim since it's too kid-friendly, although it would fit well on MeTV Toons
You know what would be cool, Ren and stimpy and Rocko's modern life on METV toons
And there's no way they can air fairy odd parents original because it aired on teen nick today and it has a reboot
I dunno about Ren and Stimpy. It's a bit "mature" and it definitely would not work in today's climate. It might however, work in an Adult Swin style late night block
@@rockoorbe2002Ren and Stimpy is owned by Paramount and Viacom
@@rockoorbe2002it's owned by Viacom and comedy Central, even having a reboot so it can't air at all except for Viacom networks
MeTV Toons won't air any Nickelodeon/Viacom shows since it's a partnership with Warner Bros, NOT Paramount.
@@ArtieRaccoonReviewsWB and Viacom has partnered before, South Park abused the hell out of that fact
OK. I think I know the reason Boomerang is on the cable package above the premium channels. Likely because back then the channel had no commercials at all and instead aired Cartoon Network promos until 2017 or something.
True, but cable costs money and shouldn't have ads in the first place. Even then, Boomerang has been ad-based since 2014 and should be a basic cable network
@@ArtieRaccoonReviews I agree
You have the wrong Naruto in the video. Toonami Rewind is going to show the original Naruto, Shuppuden is Naruto when he is older in the future.
Oh right
2:46 wrong again, Total Television made the show, it’s a common mistake
No I was right
Naruto from Cartoon Network was good Sailor Moon is good 🥲🌙
Agreed
Ok so maybe I'm wrong for saying this but it sounds like MeTv Toons got cartoon network & boomerang scared 😂
MeTV Toons is gonna be a game changer...
It’s funny because it’s literally just a rerun of ancient cartoons. Shows you the current state of tv lol. But I’m excited too
Also Artie. Do you know that Noggin is now shutting down this summer?
Yes, the streaming platform is shutting down since all the shows there are already on Paramount Plus
Glad cartoon network is doing blocks again. Blocks are what made children's entertainment channels great, and "it's just teen titans go or spongebob depending on which channel you're watching" is what ruined the channel.
Yeah, channels need to stop airing the same 1-3 shows all day every day
CN still don't have blocks, but AS does.
@@ArtieRaccoonReviews sometimes more than 3
Digimon for Toonami Rewind?
Maybe
I wish but dui to the CRAPPY Doki Doki and Smile Precure dubs Saban NO LONGER EXISTS and their the ones that actually made Digimon in addition to the various Power Rangers seasons over the years.
Oh man this is gonna be a BIG fad with a lotta of the 80s and 90s classical channels or lineups like the new MeTV Toons and Checkered Past. 👏
MeTV Toons is gonna be a huge hit!
