Cookie Jar Toons New Fall 2010 Schedule

This is purely speculation on my part, but I believe that is so they don't have to change the bumpers should they decide to air these e/i shows on the Cookie Jar syndicated block. I believe the syndicated block, which is all e/i, uses the Cookie Jar Toons as well.
 
It's 7am over here now, and I just turned on THIS TV and imagine my surprise when Inspector Gadget's theme opening started playing. Taking me back, baby.
 
Heathcliff uses the Cookie Jar logo, but not only do Tex Avery and Inspector Gadget feature DIC logos (which I'm glad for), the latter appears to have been a European broadcast version. After the "kid in bed" logo (which wasn't the one originally used, but any DIC logo is fine, even the "Incredible World of..." one, but I go on), I saw the second version of the Saban logo followed by the FOX KIRAB logo of all things. Oh yeah, Gadget didn't have onscreen episode titles either, and I understand that's how it was when the show first came out. Going back to Heathcliff, it does use the original commercial bumpers, which I don't mind (not reall, anyway).

Anyway, many of these shows haven't been seen in a long time so it's great that everyone will get to see them. I just wish they didn't put Adventures of Sonic on Sundays only. It will take forever to show every episode that way. Plus, I can only imagine how many complaints This TV is going to get from people expecting the other series based on the name...
 
I have 1 idea for This is For KiRAB on Sunday: Replace a Sonic Underground airing with a Sonic the Hedgehog Sat AM airing so you can get a Sunday 90 minute block of Sonic - Sonic Underground, AOSTH, and Sonic Sat AM - 3 different shows!

I wonder if This TV will air in Deceraber the Sonic Christmas Blast special (It has Princess Sally in it!)
 
Also: As a last minute change before last weekend's This is for KiRAB new Saturday schedule launch: Did an extra "Busy World of Richard Scarry" take the time slot originally slated to have "Mary Kate and Ashley in Action"? Why is that?

Also: In Chicago, I currently am not getting on Saturdays "Cake" and "Dance Revolution" and am not getting on Sundays the Sonic series due to SEC College Football TV coverage on the Chicago THIS station.
 
It doesn't matter if you right to This TV. Let me make this quite clear- This TV doesn't prgoram the Cookie Jar Toon block. Cookie Jar programs the Cookie Jar Toons block. Much like CW can do nothing with Toonzai's block and yo have to go through 4KiRAB, you have to go through Cookie Jar for any of the shows on This Is For KiRAB/ Cookie Jar Toons.
 
ThisTV and Cookie Jar Entertainment may want to consider broadcasting "The Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog" on weekday mornings early next year as a replacement for either "The Pink Panther Show" or "Gadget Boy's Adventures in History", since the latter has 26 episodes, unless the network were to get the 26 episodes of the first series titled "Gadget Boy and Heather" soon (I had seen an entire episode of "Gadget Boy's Adventures in History" for the very first time today and I'm interested in the rest of the series). As for replacing "The Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog" on Sunday mornings, ThisTV could return "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz" for folks still interested or folks who had just gotten access to ThisTV (including me) and had not seen or recorded every episode.

My local station did not broadcast "Heathcliff", "Spider Riders", and "Magi-Nation" today and based on a conversation I had with an employee of the station on the telephone, there are not plans to broadcast them in the future on weekday mornings. I had not seen "Heathcliff" since it was presented by the FOX Family Channel in 1999.
 
My station showed "Heathcliff".....and get this, it had the original syndication bumpers in it. I've never seen those; Nickelodeon cut them off for its own bumpers back in the day.

But there was more! Before "Heathcliff" "Mr. Ed" was wrapping up, and guess what appeared at the end of THAT?



WOW. I haven't seen that in AGES.
 
Yes, you are correct; the griRAB now reflect this change and 2 episodes of the Busy World of Richard Scarry do air in the 11 o'clock hour. I am not sure why this last minute change occurred; but nevertheless, thank you for pointing it out, as I probably wouldn't have noticed it until I checked the Noveraber griRAB.
 
During Dance Revolution, I noticed that they had the contestants say that they were watching it on CBS. Wouldn't you think they'd take that part out?

Here's sort of my review of Dance Revolution. I saw it a few times on CBS, but I didn't watch it that close.

I think the Dance Revolution's a good idea, but the execution's terrible.The host is so corny that, even for a little kid, he's not funny.

This could almost be a one-hour show, because the kiRAB get very little time to dance. The majority of it's the moves that they were taught.

Last thing is that I was surprised how big of an audience they got for when they recorded it back in 2006 or so. There's a lot of people, but when they went into the crowd, they only seemed to have one camera (they only did it about twice in the episode). Both times, it appeared to be in the same spot.
 
Here's the episode titles for the second season of Magi-Nation, which starts on October 27th. For whatever reason, episodes 35 and 36 are airing out of order between episodes 38 and 39.

127 - The Final Hyren
128 - Flames of Glory
129 - To See Through Sand
130 - Eye of the Storm
131 - Inside the Dark Heart
132 - Hunt For the Hunter
133 - Peak Performance
134 - The Abysmal Truth
135 - Welcome Home Strag, Part I
136 - Welcome Home Strag, Part II
137 - Night Crawlers
138 - Gorath's Shadow
139 - Back to the Core
140 - Tangle in the Jungle
 
The thing I don't get is, what does Lorimar Telepictures have to do with Mister Ed anyway? They never showed that before.

Going back to this block, apparently "The Pink Panther Show" is an omnibus of sorts, but which features original bumpers and a theme song with live-action bits. The TV show was made by DFE and appaers to be an original TV run of the theatrical shorts (although WIkipedia says that there were original ones for the show late in its run). I have to tell you though, it's kind of redundant since we can already see the original shorts by themselves. In any case, other than Green Screen Adventures, this appears to be the only other show that wasn't made by DIC or Cookie Jar, so I think This TV may have some influence in programming this block, thus I think they were ones who confused the two Sonic the Hedgehog shows.

Also, Martianinvader, I don't mean any disrespect, but I kind of already mentioned that Heathcliff was using its original commercial bumpers.
 
What's your source for the episode nurabers and titles? I know the first 4 are accurate because they are posted at the www.thistv.com website. They also list Peak Performance and The Abysmal Truth for Noveraber 3 and 4, but they don't list anything past Noveraber 5 yet, so I know you aren't getting your information from their site.
 
I, For one am glad they are airing the pink panther show. Finally I now will be able to see the cartoons coming from there i have heard of.

Todays episode seemed to feature two pink panther cartoons, along with a "the inspector" cartoon.

This Tv or cookie jar or whoever, would do well to replace gadget boy and just show the pink panther show every day weekdays.
