Shoutouts to Boomerang Italy for using the original Wacky Races intro EVERY TIME they air the new series.

Why don't they hire me?

They want to trick the viewer that the old Wacky Races series is about to start. Kind of like a clickbait only without the clicking.

Talking Tom & Friends make a return to Boom UK, showing only on Weekdays at 13:00.

Aww man, i missed the airing of The Man Called Flintstone on Friday. The only thing on Boomerang Cinema worth watching this month. I thought it would have a repeat airing but alas there was an 8-hour Mr Bean marathon yesterday and there is one today.
I am really interested will there be anything special for Christmas or will it be usual Alpha and Omega, TV specials of meh shows currently airing and that kind of stuff. I don't get my hopes up for a couple of years now but it is always nice to be pleasantly surprised.
Also what are the chances of the original Wacky Races airing before the start of the reboot? I should not even mention Dastardly and Muttley in Their Flying Machines and Perils of Penelope Pitsop because that would just be me being silly, wouldn't it?

Airing old films like those could repel the audience.

Maybe it's just me.

I mostly agree but I don't think that there is that big of an audience, and it most certainly cannot be repelled that easily by a single movie. Sure the movie is from '66 if i'm not mistaken and the animation is sub par at best by today's standards but that is the only thing that can repel the kids these days for me.

I don't really know about the other countries like Poland or Hungary that are served by Boom CEE but I can probably assume that it is not the most popular channel for younger kids at all. In a country like mine where Boom does not have a soundtrack in my language the viewership for the channel is literally in the hundreds. It may sound like a really small number and it may sound like i'm a bit exaggerating but it is most certainly the truth. Even the younger kids that know English enough to understand shows, and btw that number is growing as years go by with their early exposure to internet and such, they most certainly won't watch Boom, if they actually decide to watch TV at all these days .

I hope Wacky Races 2017 doesnt come to Boomerang CEE any soon... it would tottaly ruin the channel, even if it is already ruined.

Sorry, but the chances are impossible.

 

[ItsSunshine]

Yeah but still, at least lets hope people are going to like it. I personally dont, probably because of its horrible art style.

You know, you don't have to watch it, just like you don't have to watch everything on Boomerang

 

[ItsSunshine]

I already know, I still hope for some magic to release Tooncast here.

Also, Inspector Gadget will be gone. And My Knight and Me will do the same after Christmas. But, at least they finally premiere a new show after being postponed in August. And they decided to do a better treat than initially planed before postponing.

Also forgot to notice, but original T&J Theatricals and Scooby Doo, Where are you? will be also gone during the Christmas Term, so the only classic show which remains in the schedule will be The Flintstones.

BTW: Did I mention that 116 episodes from 140 of the Flintstones (S1-5) were dubbed in the Netherlands and Russia? Because I count the total number of all dubbed and airing eps from post-October 2013 batch.

But hopefully they will return in January!

 

[zajgrg]

Very bad news indeed.
I keep wondering why I come back to this channel and why I hope that it will turn out for the better when i'm fully aware of the fact that it is not anymore a classic cartoons channel.

But those little things like Flintstones at 11 frickin PM and T&J theatricals and Scooby Doo Where Are You at the time when i'm tired and sleeping or busy give me hope that it will become better in the future when it most certainly won't.

Hey but at least there are Be Cool Scooby Doo, Bunnicula and Wabbit (oooh excuse me, New Looney Tunes ).

 

[ItsSunshine]

I hope they are not removing Inspector Gadget or My Knight And Me in the favour of Wacky Races... lets hope its temporary.
Also, what happened to The Wizard Of Oz?

But, until Christmas, they only reduced My Knight and Me to ONE weekday slot due to Pat the Dog. Also, you should know that Dorothy and the Wizard of Oz will still air in December.

 

[ItsSunshine]

In December??? I am pretty sure my eyes dont lie to me. I can swear to God I saw a few episodes one or two weeks ago. Or were they shorts? They still looked like entire episodes to me.
