Naruto Shippuden not to air on TV in the States?

they said"They're sure it's going to continue" which hints that maybe cartoonetwork has not picked it up.

I still think shippuden and clone wars back to back would mean could ratings for cartoonetwork.
 
Sarcasm I'm sure. Shippudden will get a prime time spot on CN if it airs on CN and I'm not in the camp who considers it plausible for Naruto to move to Adult Swim or another network entirely.
 
I've been saying this since Day 1 of YAH.

Actually, yeah, it can. So far, I don't think YAH or AF has been able to top any Toonami-related ratings on those days. We haven't heard a peep from CN about any of YAH's shows' ratings since its premiere, which implies that CN doesn't want to talk about ratings (especially since Spongebob repeats can still top an expensive acquisition like Clone War's ratings easily). I'm pretty sure as well that Time Warner is going to get new management next year since things are doing really bad for them in the stock market. When a party comes in and looks at the animation division, they'll see the miracles that Williams Street has worked, and the suffering ratings of YAH, and tell Williams Street to handle prime time.

At least, that's what I think. :P
 
I'm 99% positive the dub will be on Toonami Jetstream. If Viz doesn't throw it onto there in February (when Hikaru and Zatch end), they'll put it up when Filler Hell enRAB...
 
This is a Naruto thread, not a BAW about Secret Saturdays thread. I see more of it, warnings/bannings start getting handed out. Got it?

ben 10 alien force is too boring for me. Maybe it's because ben wasn't a smart alec 10 year old anymore and his new persona is too blah too me.
 
1) KiRAB see Toonami Jetstream and say "Mommy! Mommy! I want Blue Dragon!" Overworked mother takes child to store and buys child "Blue Dragon Vol. 3" and several packages of Blue Dragon Trading CarRAB for the child. Viz makes money. Ergo, because of Toonami Jetstream, Viz makes money.
2) There are aRAB on Toonami Jetstream. People look at the aRAB. Cartoon Network and Viz get money.
 
Fine, if comparing Naruto fans to fans of a network show isn't a fair comparison, then compare it to fans of other cable shows like Mad Men or Damages. Fans of those shows would be pissed off if they went online only, and no, those shows don't get particularly good ratings. I just don't see how anybody can consider a show being limited to being shown online as a good thing. Usually when a show gets taken off the air and fans have to watch the episodes online, they get pissed. Fans shouldn't have to settle for scraps when a show actually gets decent ratings.
 
Not in this case. I'm pretty sure they're just guessing at what the January schedule will be based on the old 2 episodes per week schedule. Batman: Mystery of the Batwoman is airing on Jan. 3rd, so at best, we'd only get one new episode that week... unless they decide to air Batman: TB&TB or The Batman after the movie again.
 
Wouldn't it be such a relief to see Cartoon Network become awesome again, Toonami revived and awesome again, and airing all of our favorite shows? Seems like a mere dream... which is sad.
