Toon Zone Talkback - Russian Channel Drops "Happy Tree Friends," "Big Jeff"

[Malou]

This is the talkback thread for Russian Channel Drops "Happy Tree Friends," "Big Jeff".

I've never seen and so have no love for "Happy Tree Friends" or "Big Jeff," but I love the Russian TV manager's threat to replace them with "the most stupid and childish cartoons" he can find.

How can they think HTF is violent? [/sarcasm]

 

[Bradsox]

So he's going to replace HTF with Assy McGee and Super Milk-Chan?

 

[Elisha B]

Super Milk-Chan is childish?

Wow, watch dog groups all over the world can stick it. It's an ADULT channel. This is almost as rediculous as that lawsuit some idiot filed because his kid started talking back after watching Family Guy and Simpsons. Really. I guess cartoonists are pursecuted wherever they go, am I right?

I have seen some of HTF actually, It's okay, but the whole gag is just doing violent acts to cute animals. Which is funny and all, but I like things to be a little more clever than that.

Take it from us, Russia. Media watchdogs ruin everything.

I wonder if that threat to replace the cartoons with childish ones was just a form of sarcasm to the watchdog groups? If not, oh boy...:sweat:

I guess this means they're going to air Popeye, Astro Boy, and Chuck Norris?

Oh wait a sec...:sweat:
