What are your biggest hopes and wants from the channel?

What insider rumblings and rumors have you heard about it.

For instance, TMNT 87 is allegedly coming in the Fall, and Quick Draw McGraw is in restoration and music clearance in order for it to air.

>>149494577 (OP)
They Should Add Steven Universe, The Owl House And The Amazing Digital Circus .

>>149494577 (OP)
It's practically perfect. My only hope is that it never succumbs to network decay and start creating original content or adding newer shows to appeal to dumb zoomers.

>>149494616
>My only hope is that it never succumbs to network decay and start creating original content
Has that ever happened before?

>>149494577 (OP)
I once made a thread saying they need to air the lost/unreleased episodes of obscure hated DIC shows, cuz no matter how bad they are, they should be preserved

>>149494628
No, of course not. Cable tv is still as amazing as ever.

im not sure how people will watch it considering that's it's only on free satellite tv but the equipment to watch that is impossible to get

>>149494705
It's on at least two streaming services and you can get it just by watching regular-ass television. It's easier to watch metv than it is Nickelodeon or Disney Channel.

>>149494577 (OP)
>What are your biggest hopes and wants from the channel?
Disney stuff, mainly Muppet stuff... Show, Tonight, Babies... stuff that can never get proper home media/complete streaming releases due to licensing.

>>149494736
at the moment it's only on free to air satellite tv you literally need one of these to get it, which are impossible to get in most parts of the world

>>149494861
Well I'm watching it even as I'm typing this with a basic set of 10 dollar rabbit ears.

>>149494897
whatever man but I have a pretty good rabbit ears set too and I don't get it, I can't find it on the internet either

>>149494918
Frndly and Philo are your only options, then. Luckily, Frndly is dirt cheap.

>>149494861
It's literally on DirectTV as we speak. Where do you live that you still think you need an antenna to watch it?

>>149494577 (OP)
I hope they tell Scooby Doo to fuck off. I don't want another fucking cancer to infect another channel

>>149494949
what's frndly and Philo?

>>149494980
Scooby-Doo only airs once a day. Even when Cartoon Network was at it's peak they aired that shit at least 5 times a day.

>>149494964
I don't have directv, just internet and traditional over the air tv and I haven't found this channel anywhere. I can't share my location for security.

>>149495024
Streaming services that offer tv channels. Frndly has fewer channels and focuses on G-rated content but is super cheap. Philo has a lot more but it's also super expensive. But both are way cheaper than cable or satellite.

>>149494980
Scooby doo wasn't that bad, just some of the sequels and reeboots.

>>149495050
well I haven't seen thouse two streaming services anywhere

if they had a 2nd channel of this but with 90s/2000s cartoons, that'd be awesome. I'm not really into 60's/70's/80's cartoons, but im glad there's a channel for it.

>>149494577 (OP)
I really wanna see Robotech, 79 Gundam and other retro anime dubs
Also, someone has the M3U?

>>149495132
recrocrush exists for that

Why is it called MeTV

>>149494596
SHOOT HIM! SHOOT HIM NOW!

>>149495174
It's memorable entertainment television.

>>149494861
I remember those, but rarely saw them in Mexicow.

>>149495086
google them. If you have a phone or a computer, you can get them.

>>149495192
wish I had one and a fta satellite tv reception box but they're very hard to find and most of the sellers only sell to big business, they used to be everywhere here but now the stores won't sell them and the few people who have them don't even use them, im afraid to ask them or one

>>149495272
thanks ill check it out

>>149494775
If they can get a remaster of Muppet Babies and get that broadcast in HD

People say Muppet Babies can't exist because of copyrights and such. But the truth is if any company other than Disney owned it it would still be airing/streaming to this very day.

>>149494577 (OP)
All they need to do for me
>Bring back Rocky and Bullwinkle
>Add Animaniacs and Tiny Toons
>Late night vintage Fleischer
>Eventually air Quick Draw Mcgraw once the remaster is finished
After that it is perfect and has aired all I ever want to see it air that is reasonable to get
Would not also mind the black and white anime like Astro Boy/Gigantor during the anime hours

>>149494577 (OP)
I was disappointed Nicktoons started airing the old TMNT show like a year or so ago and then just pulled it. I stayed up late and was enjoying it, especially seeing classic April on TV again after years of shitty incarnations. But now I have to adjust my antenna to get this channel to show up again to ever see it on TV again (because a live broadcast is what's appealing about this whole thing.)

do a whole weeb take over and start airing ancient anime like astro boy, gigantor, speed racer

>>149495778
An 80s block and Anime block would be Kino.

>>149495778
I think they need more themed blocks. The Totally 80s block is great but I would like to see more theming. Like maybe a block for all 90s cartoons, or a block for all superhero themed cartoons like Space Ghost/Birdman and Batman TAS.

>>149496224
Late night Saturday into Sunday is a mini unannounced 90s block
If they ever are able to get the rights to any of the two major 90s WB shows they could have a true 90s block

>>149494577 (OP)
>What are your biggest hopes and wants from the channel?
Disney Afternoon and Fox Kids content

I hope it continues to do good, it's really cool
An action block would be cool, but I'm on the fence on whether the Timm shows belong there just yet. They are 30, 25 years old but I do worry they would overshadow more of the older action shows that don't get aired as much. I would prefer if it was just shows like Jonny Quest, Space Ghost, Herculoids, He-Man or the Filmation DC cartoons
More anime would be interesting too, but nothing from the anime boom onwards. Stick to shit like BOTP, Astro Boy, Gigantor, or weird stuff like Prince Planet. Don't make the mistake Toonami did with selling a "throwback anime block" but using crappy modern dubs, Gatchaman has a more modern dub from 2004 but that is not what their audience thinks of when they see those characters
Disney would be amazing but Neal Sabin has said that's probably a pipedream. Weigel... possibly has some connections at Disney, they’re able to show 20th Century Fox shows, but who knows whether those are legacy deals. Terrytoons are much more likely, they've been trying and Weigel has a good relationship with CBS, only problem is CBS doesn't give a shit about Terrytoons
The Cartoon Lost & Found show they've been talking about for a while sounds fascinating, right now the only show I've heard'll be there is Courageous Cat and Minute Mouse but there's a lot of weird shit that would fit in H-B's catalog alone, something like the "Look What We Found" block

>>149495174
because when you see it you turn me60 degrees and walk away

>>149496862
why is marvin so smol

>>149497098
Mars' gravity makes him look bigger
I think

>>149494577 (OP)
idk if they ever showed xaolin showdown like they promised but if they can do something like that and duck dodgers maybe they'd be willing to air the 03 titans show since CN refuses to at all. i mean hell they're apparently airing mystery incorporated for gods sake, let me have 03 titans broadcasted again.

>>149494577 (OP)
they need to get rid of Totally Tooned In, it's the single worst thing they air, and it's downright criminal that it clogs up a full 3 hours of their Sunday schedule(especially when it's immediately followed by 2 hours of The Wacky World of Tex Avery)

>>149494577 (OP)
I know these are unlikely to ever appear on MeTV Toons for various reasons (music clearance, too expensive to license, etc.), but it would be cool to see at least a few of the following on its lineup:
>He-Man and the Masters of the Universe
>She-Ra: Princess of Power
>Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids
>The Archie Show
>G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero
>The Transformers
>Thundercats
>Alvin and the Chipmunks (preferably the 80's version)
>COPS
>M.A.S.K.
>Kidd Video
>Galaxy High School
>The Pirates of Dark Water
>Mighty Max
>Exosquad
>Astro Boy
>G-Force (Cartoon Network's dub of Gatchaman)
>Star Blazers
>Goldie Gold and Action Jack
>The Mysterious Cities of Gold

>>149496862
Disney never ever and their rep is in the toilet anyways

>>149496862
This picture looks like it was poorly traced together from other elements

>>149496862

If it was me I would throw them subbed LOL.

But realistically they should put the G-Force version of the show, even with the goofy ass replacement music playing two thirds of the time, is that version even still exists?

>>149497743
https://youtu.be/G3FpR5hM7NE

>>149497513
Of those the following are not impossible
>He-Man
>She-Ra
>The Archie Show
>Thundercats
>COPS
>Pirates of Dark Water
>Astro Boy (maybe? Believe Sony had distribution rights last I heard)
>Goldie Gold
He-Man and She-Ra aired on MeTV itself I think in 2013? They had a cartoon block years before even Flintstones was added but it was shows like Gumby, Magoo, He-Man, nothing WB
Fat Albert is owned by Classic Media too but... y'know

>>149497801
>AniMETV
>It's all American toons and no ANIME!

Talk about a blunder.

>>149494577 (OP)
Isn't this the network that hid the fact that some horror movie host sexually assaulted his staff?

>>149497743
>But realistically they should put the G-Force version of the show, even with the goofy ass replacement music playing two thirds of the time, is that version even still exists?
G-Force is no longer owned by Turner Broadcasting/Warner Bros, the rights reverted to Tatsunoko in the mid 90s
Battle of the Planets is still somewhat available, Sentai Filmworks owns the international rights I guess? G-Force is in this odd situation where it's not appealing to weeaboos because "muh accuracy" but doesn't have the recognizability of BOTP. It's probably fucked

>>149497513
Just thought of a few other shows.
>Dungeons & Dragons
>Jem
>Garfield & Friends
>Dennis the Menace '86
>Heathcliff and the Catillac Cats
>Voltron
>Clutch Cargo
>Space Angel
>Captain Fathom
>Lazer Tag Academy
>Star Trek (Filmation's animated version)
>The Tick

And for shits and giggles, some other shows that would be nigh impossible to license for obvious reasons.
>Disney theater shorts
>Disney Afternoon (DuckTales, Gummi Bears, Darkwing Duck, TaleSpin, Goof Troop, etc.)
>Spider-Man '67
>Spider-Man '81
>Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends
>Fantastic Four '67
>Ewoks
>Star Wars: Droids: The Adventures of R2-D2 and C-3PO
>Fox's Peter Pan & the Pirates
>Eek! The Cat

>>149498256
More shits and giggles. Not expecting any of these to get licensed.
>Care Bears
>Rainbow Brite
>The Get Along Gang
>Mr. Bogus
>Denver, the Last Dinosaur
>Dinosaucers
>Widget
>Beany and Cecil
>Pound Puppies
>The Raccoons
>Pole Position
>Saturday Supercade
>The Super Mario Bros. Super Show
>Super Mario Bros. 3
>Super Mario World
>Captain N
>Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog
>Sonic the Hedgehog
>Sonic Underground
>The Hurricanes
>Cadillacs & Dinosaurs

what was the thought process behind this

>>149499399
Not sure, but I'll give it some bonus points for being a bit out there and craving its own niche in a way.

>>149497801
US Astro Boy is actually public domain. I'm an lawyer with a hyper fixation on the show.. apparently the original Astro Boy had it's English dub audio distorted after a studio fire at NBC. all are still available but in poor quality which is why you'll never see certain episodes on TV.

>>149494964
Found out it hit directv the other day and I've been watching the shit out of it

>>149494577 (OP)
Nothing

>>149495778
>Add Animaniacs and Tiny Toons
The head guy literally said don't expect any of the Spielberg/WB shows any time soon since they're super-expensive to license (especially now that they've been recently revived).

>>149494861

Its a digital on air station you can get a digital antenna for like 5 bucks at walmart.
Dont get the 5 buck antenna tho.

>>149495991

Speed racer and marine boy air every day on it.

>>149497513

> G-Force (Cartoon Network's dub of Gatchaman)

This dub was on way before cartoon network existed.

>>149497801

I am all but certain that thundercats and cops already aired on metoons before.

>>149501234
TMS also wants royalties for their footage, thats the main reason why Animaniacs, Pinky and The Brain and Tiny Toons are not on MeTV Toons, Freakazoid was by Animal Ya who was a contract studio and WB and Amblin get the same about of money on Freakazoid as they do on the other 3 hence why MeTV Toons was able to afford Freakazoid, but with Animaniacs, Pinky and The Brain and Tiny Toons they also have to pay TMS royalties for their footage (as part of their 2020 lawsuit with Warner Bros about getting back stabbed on Animaniacs'2020, TMS won the court case) which adds in another party which makes it that MeTV Toons can no longer afford it.

But since MeTV Toons is a massive success they can now afford the extra costs.

It’s always MeTV
What about UsTV?

Why don't over-air TV stations also have their own livestreams? If you're meant to get it for free anyway, accessing it on the internet would make it a lot easier.

>>149495029
>>149501378
Cartoon Boomers should just air DBZ, 0079 Gundam then to show how they can get ratings.

>>149501924
MeTV Toons is getting over 20 million views per show, they don't need DBZ and Gundam.

>>149501311
Neither Thundercats nor COPS were on MeTV Toons' lineup yet. I've been watching that channel since late July 2024 last year and never saw either of those shows on its lineup.

The closest MeTV Toons has had to Thundercats and COPS were Silverhawks (which was added to the lineup earlier this year) and Police Academy (which was on the lineup ever since the channel launched last year).

>>149501988
Personally, it would be cool if Dragonball and Gundam made the lineup, but a couple issues could complicate things aside from licensing either anime.

In 0079 Gundam's case, despite it being a 70's anime, it got dubbed MUCH later compared to other 'boomer' anime like Astro Boy, Gigantor, Speed Racer, Marine Boy, Star Blazers, and Gatchaman as well as 'Gen X' anime like Voltron, Robotech, and Dragonball. Those running MeTV Toons might hold that against 0079 Gundam, especially it didn't benefit from the same 80's and 90's nostalgia factor in America as the boomer shows, theater shorts, and other 80's and 90's shows.

In Dragonball's case, even though 80's and 90's shows are on the lineup, how would MeTV Toons handle Dragonball itself? Would it skip over the Pilaf/Tournament 1/Red Ribbon ArmyTournament 2/King Piccolo/Tournament 3 sagas just to get to the Saiyan saga similar to what Funimation pretty much did in the 90's? Would MeTV Toons just license the censored dub for nostalgia and call it a day? Personally, I'd rather watch DB with its original music and without the censorship, but MeTV Toons probably couldn't get away with an uncensored DBZ the way Telemundo did.

>>149501847
That would be convenient, especially for viewers outside of a given channel's market. Maybe some other issues prevent this from being the norm.

>>149501267
You're talking about a tv antenna, I mean it's only on free satellite tv, which is very hard to get becuse the equipment is not sold to the general public in most parts of the world.

>>149502338

I like silverhawks, makin me feel like a kid again watching it.

>>149502772

If metoons started airing anime it would be most practical for them to air the old dubs of them.
Stuff like robotech and harlock harmony gold series.
Im fine if they dont but if they do it should be stuff that aint seen the light of day in years.

>>149504196
MeTV Toons is primarily distributed through over-the-air television that you can get with a normal antenna. Maybe the channel isn't in your market or you're too far from the tower.

Popeye and speed racer need to fucking go

>>149501847
licensing content to broadcast usually doesnt come with a license to stream. if i called up WB and asked to license road runner cartoons for broadcast, they would charge me based on how many people my tv station theoretically reaches. an internet streaming license for the same content would cost a shit ton more unless i could prove the stream was adequately geofenced
