Re: Bring Toonami Back (I wish :P)

Aww dude, I watched all of Tenchi Muyo, Blue Sub 6, and Outlaw Star on Toonami. And then it stopped and I just sorta fell out of the Cartoon Network fandom and turned to internets TV for my anime. =3

Seriously though, TV has just fallen so out of tune for me and some of my family. My mom wants to just get rid of our cable and just have our internet. I would probably be fine with that, alot of people I know do that. With Hulu, Youtube, and all the other sites on the internet, I can basically have my TV and more.

Re: Bring Toonami Back (I wish :P)

I havent turned on the TV in over a year (or 2) for something other than anime dvds or video games, I did watch toonami back in the day though for dragonball, cowboy bebop and trigun to name a few. I never leave my interwebs.

Re: Bring Toonami Back (I wish :P)

Hah, seems like I'm the only one with things still on TV to watch. I often find myself on Comedy (That's Comedy Central for you Americans), Fox8 or Fox Classics.

I rarely watch anime being broadcast on TV these days. To me that's purely DVDs.

Well, I have two roommates who are even less TV-inclined than I, so if I wanted TV I'd have to pay for it all by myself and considering I'm a cheap-skate, not gunna happen. X3

I have been watching Lost on Hulu, tho. Does that count as TV?

Re: Bring Toonami Back (I wish :P)

Well from what we have talked about in my Media Literacy class, the internet is just becoming this place where we can go for just about every type of media. Watching movies, TV shows, reading stories, even listening to the radio on the computer. Now companies want that money that they think they can get from the internet. Now you see way more ads on sites now and right before videos.

TV ratings are not where they use to be, NBC is totally dropping the ball on their primetime. I do catch shows on television sometimes but at the same time, I got my computer up and running.

I think that's a good thing. These companies still have a bottom line they have to look out for and using ads to create revenue and monetize the system gives them the ability to do that.

Right and Im alright with these companies thinking that Im watching their little ad before a video while Im actually doing something else. It's all about making these companies think their commercials are doing something. When you watch TV and commercials come up, I flip it around or Im just going to do something else while Im waiting for the show to start.

Some people think this is very wrong that now they are basically trying to add ads to every part of the internet and some people just don't want that. That is where some look at internet society as a very socialist thing. Everybody wants everything but they don't want to pay for it and even when these sites put up adds to help pay for things, people go crazy and say they don't want to be forced to look at or watch an ad.

It's something that needs some time to work out and hopefully in the future, they will come up with better ways to do it and people can accept it and move on with their lives.

Re: Bring Toonami Back (I wish :P)

well personally I don't mind ads. Espically on free content on the internet. I know that it takes some kind of money to make what Im watching and I'd at least like them to make that back! :3 With Anime in particular that is why we made this site and community is to help support the industry via watching Streams online.
