Due to the astronomical ratings success of MeTV’s Saturday Morning Cartoons and Toon in with Me blocks, MeTV is launching their cartoon spinoff channel MeTV Toons on June 25th! Many people including me have predicted for a few years now that some sort of channel like this was going to launch.
MeTV is the saving grace of television and I really appreciate their mission of providing quality classic programming to viewers over the air for free! Could this mean the grand comeback of Saturday morning blocks and antenna television? If you are worried that your favorite classic cartoon wasn't listed, don't worry! MeTV plans to rotate and add other cartoons as time goes on! This is merely the tip of the ice berg and what they are starting off with.

4:37 Fun Fact: TBS back in the 80s was supposed to air the original 1979 Doraemon Anime here in the US, as “The Adventures of Albert And Sidney”, but backed out at the last minute, meaning that if they did picked up the rights, then Doraemon would definitely show up on MeTV Toons.
Albert is Nobita?
@@m.k.b.3880 Doraemon is Albert, Noby is meant to be Sidney.
I would be ecstatic but would they show a subtitled show on American tv?
@@Ihartwalrusguy ?
Oh yeah, Turner bought the license for Doraemon back in 1985 but never ended up doing anything with it
Welcome back Saturday mornings! O how we have missed you so.
1965-1969
Saturday mornings
were the VERY finest. CB
Now boy i say boy, this is a huge win for over the air television!
Agreed
Leghorn will be back! All those barnyard antics!!!
I think over the air t v in addition to the free (and cheaper end of) streaming is the future.
It would be if it weren’t run by Weigel.
What's the problem with Weigel?
As a child of the late 60 s this is fantastic to see all the cool cartoons my generation grew up with and free
i wanna see all the Chuck Jones era Daffy Duck cartoons. Good lord, those are still funny to this day!
They will all be on MeTV Toons!
@@ArtieRaccoonReviewswhoo hoo!
They are on MEtv Toon in with me.
When I saw the commercial for this, with the line-up, I literally thought to myself, this channel is basically going to be what Boomerang USED to be.
It's all coming back to you...
@@ArtieRaccoonReviews
I see what ya did there.. 😅
@@ArtieRaccoonReviews😂
And at the time Boomerang was what the Cartoon Network used to be before they became whatever they are now, and the reboots of Scooby Doo, and the Looney Tunes cartoons are awful
@@The1baddman
Yeah, cartoon network is garbage now.
I’m 62 years old and i watched these cartoons when i was a kid i almost choked on water when i saw this i have cable and it’s free on digital tv and i have an antenna so I’m ready.
It's going to revolutionize antenna TV
There is a VERY LARGE population of Senior adults and Boomers with no access to cable, satellite and streaming, who remain underserved by digital television when it comes to the classic cartoons they grew up with and used to be on REGULAR television! This will help that demographic IMMENSELY! For did you know, that the few times in the day when ME TV air cartoons---their viewership spikes astronomically?
You summed it up perfectly! Not just that, lower income families have to suffer through that dreaded preschool slop on PBS that lacks any substance, so having an actual quality animation channel on antenna TV is a match made in heaven.
And yes, the cartoons on MeTV have been topping the charts! I'm glad society has finally realized cartoons are not just for kids and can be loved and enjoyed by all ages, demographics, and types of people!
Yeah I remember the one guy who works for me tv said that they had like a half a million people watching bugs Bunny one Saturday a couple of weeks ago when he was interviewed by another UA-camr
I did see someone on Twitter ask Plutotv if they would have added channel and they said that they're looking into it and their contacting the company they'll update them with more information I just hope they don't order it I just hope they don't water it down
@@jamesm47766 Not only that----but they are waking up EARLY to watch it---very desperate need out there!
@@ArtieRaccoonReviews I feel sorry for people who can't afford subscription television and the only Saturday morning network television available to them anymore is depressing! Unless your kid wants to grow up to be a vet, who wants to see an antelope giving birth at the zoo? With ME TV cartoons---its going to be like Saturday morning in 1975 all over again!
I really hope obscure CN shows like Time Squad and Sheep in the Big City get added to the channel. They haven't aired on TV in a very long time and are not available on streaming anywhere. So them getting a home on Me TV Toons would really be a big grab and win!
Neither was Evil Con Carne which became obscure until in 2018 when it finally became available on streaming
Not to mention Evil Con Carne aired on Checkered Past from December until February. It would be epic if MeTV decided to air the original Grim & Evil series for Halloween
I would love it if they would pick up Dexter's Laboratory and classic The Powerpuff Girls, but what they have planned right now is a great start!
The classic version of The Powerpuff Girls, which aired over 25 years ago, is a throwback to many classic animation styles used in American cartoons and Japanese anime, with tributes and homages to Hanna-Barbera thrown in.
The even got the original voices of Rocky and Bullwinkle to voice a pair of Powerpuff Girls supervillains in the later seasons.
If The Powerpuff Girls aired on MeTV Toons, it would mark the second time on over-the-air broadcasts that the cartoon aired after a brief period of time on Kids' WB in 2002.
@@Justin-Hill-1987if I’m correct the original cartoon cartoons would be more possible since they were made when Cartoon Network studios was still Hanna-Barbera studios in America cause to me I would classify them under Hanna-Barbera unlike the latter one cause of them being made after the rebranding to Cartoon Network studios in the early 2000’s
Transformers, He-Man, Voltron, Robotech, Superman (Fleischer), Batman: The Animated Series, TMNT, and Thundercats.
Same!
I think WB owns Thundercats, so that shouldn’t be an issue. As for the Fleischer Superman’s, the new station is going to have these blocks of miscellaneous shorts called Cartoon Allstars. I imagine that’s where things like that can be found. Let’s just hope they don’t use the horrendous prints from the WB official Blu Ray set. They really messed it up-in several ways.
Mind you, I’m in Canada and won’t have access to this channel 😭
No love for G.I. Joe?
@@davej.meister5421 Much love! I just forgot. Also, another oldie I'd like to see is Mighty Mouse
Wow 😲🤯😲!! I'm just mind blown with all of the amazing classic content that would be shown here.
Xiaolin Showdown especially and all of the cartoons that hasn't aired in like 10 years + really sparks my interest in this channel even more. Can't wait to be glued to the TV screen like how I was as a kid.
It would be nice to get the Pink Panther, the Inspector and Roland & Rattfink cartoons again... especially if they can throw in the original Ant & the Aardvark cartoons too.
🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
They have Pink Panther
Indeed my favorite after the road runner.
Last time I watched boomerang was 5 months ago when I was in the hospital due to an infection. i was very upset that the old cartoons like Flintstones and the Jetsons aired around 10pm. Me and dad are so excited for this
I thought they aired at 10 AM, but I'm glad you recovered from that infection
The Flintstones and the Jetsons air on MeTV every Sunday morning at 10am. eastern standard time. Three episodes of the Flintstones beginning at 10 and one episode of the Jetsons at 11:30.
Astro Boy?, Snorks?, Magic School Bus?, Bobby's World?, Garfield and Friends?, Felix The Cat?
Astro Boy and Snorks are definitely possibilities! PBS owns the rights to Magic School Bus and also Garfield is owned by Paramount now. Felix the Cat is a maybe
It was stated that metv did partner with paramount so maybe Garfield will be
@@ArtieRaccoonReviews we need The Twisted Tales of Felix The Cat and Bruno the Kid to be added to MeTV Toons
@@luisaquino8894 Artie....the mere fact that Beck is involved works VERY FAVORABLY for your wishes to come through. That guy will see to it that Felix gets added as well as many others.
@@ArtieRaccoonReviewsthe Archie cartoon lol. If it has Scooby Doo it should have every version up until maybe the last one in the 90s. Can't forget the Three Stooges Cartoon
It's still pretty early, I imagine that more MeTV Toons affiliates will be announced the closer we get to June 25, 2024.
That's what I'm thinking
I really hope so, I really hope my local CBS affiliate (who airs MeTV) picks up the channel.
I'm in the Albany NY market and we don't know if it's coming here yet. Currently our station for Catchy Comedy has the service on "2" sub-channels. One of those would be a prime spot for "toons".
Where I live only Me TV is available and not Me TV+ so I doubt Me TV toons will be either. Maybe the Frndly app will pick it up. @@DoswarePictures
I hope Dayton, Ohio gets it!
If I watched physical television, this would be my primary channel I'd watch.
SPACE GHOST , BIRDMAN/GALAXY TRIO, MIGHTY MIGHTOR/Moby Dick, Young Samson and Goliath, Shazzan The Herculoids. Should be on the MeTv list
Call it "Hanna Barbara's World of Super Adventure" like they did in the 60s
Imaging having this Halloween
and
Christmas
with those specials classic from
all this cartoons, can't wait to be in the season ! Thank l'll have it in every single tv in my house !
These are the cartoons we grew up with on Saturday Mornings Can't wait!
Me too!
So excited!!! I m hoping hanaba barbera cartoons pound puppies and snorks get put in Metvtoons! So excited for this channel
*Hanna
Im very hyped for this channel.
If there was ONE show id like to come to the channel its quickdraw mcgraw. id find it a little weird if Kwicky Koala made it but QuickDraw got completely shafted.
I agree with you, but I have a feeling Quick Draw McGraw will come to MeTV Toons in the future
I'd like to see Battle of the Planets, Roger Ramjet and Snorks added. Speaking of the Snorks, that's not available anywhere online. I wonder why. But I would like for them to get some Filmation and Ruby Spears cartoons.
I’m just surprised that MeTV is able to get some of these cartoons, licensing fees are extremely expensive and very complicated
It's not out of the question
Also I'm surprised MeTV was able to get their hands on this many cartoons in the first place
@@ArtieRaccoonReviews right I'm guessing cartoon network and boomerang didn't want to pay for licensing fees for many of the non-Hanna Barbera and the non looney toons cartoon libraries that they don't own.
Fantastic Max, Midnight Patrol, Comic Strip, Dennis the Menace, Denver the last dinosaur, Widget, The Mario Brothers, Sonic the Hedgehog, Cowboys of Moo Mesa, Kissyfur, Bobby's World, Tales of The Cryptkeeper, The Addams Family, lts Punky Brewster, Tiny Toon Adventures, Animaniacs, Pac Man, He-Man and the Masters of the Universe, She-Ra: Princess of Power, The California Raisins, Hammerman, Pirates of Dark Water, Defenders of the Earth, Conan the Barbarian, etc. The list goes on. It's endless.
I got one" Spectre man..very old school"
I just saw this on The Antenna Man and the Interview with the spokesman of The MeTv Network of cartoons. Very pleasant to hear & good 📰 news .
I can't wait
I hope that MeTV Toons might be on the air beginning on June 25th on Dish Network until we find out sooner or later as well!!! - Krista Venise Jones
I hope so too
I hope so too I also have Dish
I know it will be on Spectrum because it already has the original MeTV channel on there.
Does it also have Me TV+ as well?@@josephclegg3562
I think they should add old anime like Astro Boy and Gigantor, as well as some other shows from the 2000's
I agree with you, Astro Boy would be perfect on MeTV
I'll take Star Blazers, loved that series as a kid
I’m absolutely excited for this channel. It’ll be cool to actually watch the Mask cartoon on tv
For once
This sounds like exciting news, I'll be sure to check my local listings! I'll tell my dad and friend about it's GREAT!
Tell everyone!
@@ArtieRaccoonReviews Done and done!
Awesome!
One show I want to see air again on MeTv Toons is the Snorks. That is my wishlist item for MeTv Toons.
They have the Smurfs. Might as well have the Snorks.
The Smurfs and The Snorks are basically the same show
Mine too, and a lot of others, including the video game based cartoons, like qbert, frogger, and donkey Kong, ect..
cool Ruby Spears cartoons! I wanna watch *Fang Face* ! And *MightyMan and Yukk* ! So I can prove to my nephews that Man Of Action made Yukk into a Ben 10 alien !
I hope it works!
I'm hopeful that once MeTV Toons gets itself established and have things going, that they will roll out a more Action-Adventure block of cartoons like SwatKats and the like, much like Toonami did for anime back in the day. They arent limited to that style of cartoon either, a eduction block gor the younger kids, the more 90's era cartoons that a lot of the adults will remember, etc etc.
Regardless of what they do this channel existing is a huge win for us animation enthusiasts. 😂
MeTV Toons needs an anime/action toons block kind of like Toonami Midnight Run or Boomeraction was back in the day.
Also confirmed are
Punkin' Puss & Mushmouse
Mr Magoo and the rest of the UPA library
The Real Ghostbusters
Mr Peabody and Sherman
Dudley Do Right
Thunderbirds
Supercar
(Source in reply)
As for my wishlist
Pink Panther and the Steven Speilberg cartoons are both picks I agree with (maybe with Pink Panther they can combine it with other DePatie Freiling cartoons (I think they do that with Tom and Jerry and MGM during the saturday morning block)
The Adventures of Sonic would be a fun addition
The Snorks is one I haven't seen in probably upwards of 13 or 14 years, but it's one I remember watching and being fond of)

ua-cam.com/video/6LtgqmeTx9s/v-deo.htmlsi=uUSGYZ5W-8EchH1m
Oh yeah, I didn't find out about that until this video was in post production. I watched Antenna Man's video where he interviewed a MeTV employee about what to expect. Also Mr Magoo and Gerald McBoing Boing is coming!
Also The Snorks is waaay too similar to The Smurfs
Hopefully it’s thunder birds 2068 cause the other one is so creepy
@@dripchimp5947 you mean Thunderbirds 2086?
I wished they would add Count Duckula and Danger Mouse as well :)
They can't secure the rights to any Disney IPs
If MeTV Toons want more educational programming shows, then otherwise they should put shows like Timmy the Tooth (Live action kids show) and The Adventures of Blinky Bill every weekday mornings if it’s possible. I grew up in the early 90s and I used to watch these shows on my local fox station (WVAH 11). This brought us childhood memories back like a brick of gold. And Thanks to MeTV’s new sister channel.
Or even the OG Thomas season 1-7
@@dragonxblkangelx216 I also have a childhood on old school Thomas the tank engine. Better than the reboot, lol.
The original Inspector Gadget could work as well.
OG Thomas and Friends would be an awesome idea for E/I programming. Stop-motion IS animation afterall!
@@dragonxblkangelx216FAST TV channel Sensical Jr. Is already airing Seasons 1-5
Definitely something to look forward to as I miss the old cartoons I watched growing up on Saturday mornings. Although I can watch classic cartoons on Boomerang and MeTV, a lot of cartoons such as Josie And The Pussycats aren't included.
I'm Ready for MeTV Toons is on Xfinity from Comcast is Coming Soon in the Summer 2024!!!?
Me too
Can't wait for the new 24/7 cartoon network to premiere on June 25th.
Why are you typing in capital letters? Is it your keyboard or smth?
TBS 1980's: Doraemon
TBS 1990's: Cartoons
TBS 2000's: Seinfeld
TBS 2010's: The Big Bang Theory
TBS 2020's: Modern Family
Wait! The first entry is Tokyo Broadcasting System. Not the one from Turner.
As soon as I heard about this, I'm very excited! I just hope they add Garfield and Friends to the list since Inspector Gadget was added. Both were sendicated back to back on Nickelodeon in the 90s! I just hope they add Garfield too!
It's going to be difficult since Paws, Inc (owners of the Garfield brand) is owned by Paramount/Viacom now, and they have a rocky relationship with Warner Bros
I'm so excited, can't wait!
This is very awesome finally another channel besides pbs kids that has cartoons and they are actually good. My wish list is: Pink Pathet, Transformers G1, Heman, Thundercats, Felix the cat, and what I’m surprised no one has said the peanuts.
Laboratory Dexter too
Going to keep my fingers crossed for this one. The ones on there I’m most interested in are Freakazoid, Jonny Quest, Speed Racer, Gobots, and Rocky and Bullwinkle. As for stuff I would add, I’d suggest Fleshier Superman, SuperFriends and Astro Boy (1963). Definitely would like to see them get an action block like how Cartoon Network had with Toonami.
Imagine if they end up adding ThunderCats (the original 80's version, not the epic 2011 version or the disastrous 2020 version ThunderCats Roar) and also the short lived 90's toon Road Rovers!
Agreed! An action/superhero block is very likely
It will be great to see Rocky and Bullwinkle, and Boris and Natasha, along with Aesop and Son, Mr. Peabody and Sherman, and Dudley-Do-Right again.
MeTV was an absolute leegend! I saw the promo on a different video, but it's the revivial of Classic Cartoons! The Modern Era won't ruin our classic, childhood memories! I watched classic cartoons on Boomerang, when it was like that in the 2000s and some in the 2010s. Even though it does show SOME classic cartoons of today, like Looney Tunes... MeTV Toons is the NEW Boomerang! I'm still hapoy MeTV is the best! I pray this new channel stays forever!
MeTV Toons is the new Boomerang!
@@ArtieRaccoonReviews You can say that again! Nostalgia's coming back to me! 😊
Cool!!I'd love to see the great old cartoons from my childhood!!😮😅😊
Me too!
ALRIGHT!!! This new ME TV Toons channel might be like the good old days of Cartoon Network again!😃😁✊🏿
I also hope that Swat Kats, Tiny Toons Adventures and Animaniacs will be added to this too somehow. Furthermore this new channel better not fail.
And Boomerang!
@@ArtieRaccoonReviews Yeah that too
@@gibbs615If it fails it'll likely be due to mismanagement because if they have as much content on there that I think they'll have it'll be a success.
@@benstandard Well then they better have GOOD management for this new channel!
@@benstandardWell, it’s being managed by a network that has managed to broadcast timeless antiquated television seamlessly for 2 decades, and a few people who clearly knew their shit.
I'm Very Excited for this! i can finally feel at home again when this comes out, my only problem is that it's going to be SD instead of HD unless i wait for the FAST version or be on Streaming cable services.
I honestly can settle for SD since I grew up with that standard. Also I love your profile pic, it gives me toony and pooltoy vibes!
@@ArtieRaccoonReviews thanks it's been my staple, a friend drew it for me but i also have my own i drew i use elsewhere like in my channel banner and social media. Well i guess it wouldn't hurt because my expectations was that I was gonna get clear sharp picture to the source as possible.
I'm a sucker for toony transformation art XD
@@ArtieRaccoonReviews nice same here.
Transformation art is the best, but straightjackets are also cool
I have the date of June 25 written down.....can't wait!!!!!
Nearly a month away!
MeTV toons along with MeTV Plus and MeTV. A win across the board.
Sadly MeTV Plus isn't available in my area
*in Bender's voice* Yeah, we're back
im also surprised that Xiaolin Showdown is airing on here, and it's inclusion here is a highlight to me as i remember watching this specific show ALOT on Kids WB in the 2000s while waiting for Pokemon to come on, so the fact that MeTV is airing this at all is actually really cool to me
but yeah, the 2020s seems to have nostalgia as it's theme, with this, Checkered Past and the recent rise of UA-cam channels like Cereal Milk VHS uploading old TV airings onto UA-cam. mainly with animated shows and blocks like Kids WB and Toonami
Its a good thing!
@@ArtieRaccoonReviews i agree, it feels like i've been warped back into the past somehow, and that's not a bad thing!
im currently doing a bingewatch of Cereal Milk VHS's UA-cam uploads for the whole summer, mainly to rewatch shows i've seen as a kid and watch shows i missed out on
Hell yes
@@ArtieRaccoonReviews im going to be watching Cereal Milk VHS's content, MeTV Toons and play games on my emulators like it's the 2000s again!
I don't think cartoons like the Simpsons, Futurama, King of the Hill, Family Guy, American Dad, Beavis and Butthead, and Daria will be airing on MeTV.
I'm also hoping Garfield and friends, muppet baby original, animaniacs tiny toons and Pinky and the brain, and more well come. ❤
Muppet Babies original is a legal nightmare but yeah that'd be sweet.
Muppet babies is a Disney show. I think Warner Bros and related shows would be on there.
Muppet Babies has a lot of licensing issues since multiple companies were involved in the production and distribution, it's an absolute legal nightmare like that Mac Guy said
I hope the 1980s Alvin and the Chipmunks make it to the lineup.
@@ArtieRaccoonReviews they were out of there minds because Felix the cat and the Alice comedies were not really in the trailer, I hope all these show I Mention will come to METV toons some day when it's starts airing.
This is very promising for a few reasons. Weigel has done a pretty good job filling nostalgia niches. OTA broadcasting doesn't seem to be a growth industry, but it still has an audience. There were so many short-lived animated shows from roughly 1960-2000. Most of them didn't turn out to be billion $ franchises, but would be great fodder for a cartoon channel in a time when getting a few million viewers is a home run. When you factor in Saturday morning cartoons, golden age shorts, weekday syndicated advertainment, family-friendly anime, and Turner era original cartoons, it would take 12 years of round the clock programming to burn through the whole loop.
MeTV broadcasts 62 different shows per week, which is IMPRESSIVE!
But yeah, MeTV Toons should have the classic cartoons and anime, alongside early Cartoon Network shows and Turner programming. Maybe even some old school PBS cartoons to fulfill E/I requirements.
@@ArtieRaccoonReviews what are the current E/I requirements? From what I can tell PBS is the only nonsubscriber network that seems to produce any new animated daytime shows in the past 12 years.
@@ArtieRaccoonReviewsWeigel is awesome! And it looks like we will never run out of content esp if new shows get added?
I hope the filmation cartoon library will be added to this list of cartoons. a lot of them haven't been seen in years
1:44 Jerry Beck said that it’s going to air all the shows in 4:3
and all the shows will be not edited so the all the cartoons on the channel is not censored
and all the shows will air in original format too
like yogi bear it’s will have Snagglepuss cartoons
Jerry Beck is doing an amazing job and I appreciate he wants to air all the cartoons in their originally intended formats, uncut, unedited, and the best way!
Unless of course they air a show that was produced in 16:9 in 4:3. PBS Retro has the same issue with their airings of Thomas.
@@ArtieRaccoonReviewsaspect ratio is so important! MeTV loves to stretch their programs and in some cases it's not bad but in others it's noticeable and unnatural. The idea that some people seem to think that just because their screen is wide that everything they watch, including older programs, needs to go from edge to edge is ridiculous. Antenna TV doesn't artificially stretch ANY of their product 😊
We gonna have a great futute of most Hanana Barbera cartoons being back on "Me Tv Toons" and the other cartoons.
Hell yes!
Damn! That is an awesome lineup!! I hope they get this in Houston. I would love this!!
Also, I would really love to see Sheep in the Big City, Time Squad, and Swat Cats come back. Maybe they could get Megas XLR and Batman the animated series too. Oh, and Godzilla, Super Friends, Transformers, GI Joe, He-Man, and Thundercats!
Oh, and Jackie Chan Adventures!
All of those are amazing choices!
This is gonna be great
I hope we get stuff like Galtar and the Golden Lance.
I’m excited for it to release on June 25
Me too
It would be something having shows like G.I.Joe, Transformers, He-man, She-Ra, Bravestarr, M.A.S.K., Voltron, Centurions, Super Mario Bros super show, The Real Ghostbusters, 1980s Muppet Babies, 1980s Alvin & The Chipmunks
Muppet Babies is a licensing nightmare, part of the reason why there are no home media releases of it
So excited! I hope my area in west tx will get it
I hope you are able to receive the channel!
This is a win i say
Definitely
So this confirms that they’ll be going with the DIC Heathcliff instead of my preferred Ruby Spears
That’s the best one, mainly because of the Cadillac cats, hopefully we also get their version of Dennis the Menace
@@yell0wberry All things subjective - the difference I see between Ruby-Spears and DIC is the same difference between the the Fleischer Popeye and the Famous Studios Popeye. The right pace with no wasted space.
I've never even watched Heathcliff before, so it'll definitely be an experience watching and comparing both versions for the first time
@@ArtieRaccoonReviews I probably don’t care for the southMoorish Hijinx of heathcliff, I enjoy watching Riff Raff and the Cadillac cat
I seriously want Garfield and Friends on this channel.
I've seen a lot of people mention it, also Peanuts
On their night schedule they'll be showing all the classic Supermarionation series, Supercar, Fireball XL5, Stingray, Thunderbirds, and Captain Scarlet.
Since they're showing UK shows, I wonder if they'll air Canadian cartoons such as The Raccoons at some point
@@ArtieRaccoonReviews That would be the best!
Underdog was not HB, but Total Television. Beetlejuice wasn’t either, it was Nelvana from Canada. Gobots was Hanna Barbera. Just an old cartoon fan wanting to keep the details in check👍🏻
Thank you, took me a minute to realize Underdog was from Jay Ward. Also I cringed when I realized I pronounced Touche Turtle as "Touchy Turtle" XD
Yes I caught too lol. Who is Touchy? Lol
@@ArtieRaccoonReviewsUnderdog wasn’t Jay Ward, but actually Total TV (Gamma) who also did King Leonardo and Tennessee Tuxedo, although some of the same artists may have been involved.
if this streaming service give us EVERYTHING that hannah barbera has EVER MADE, that means we may not need to search for The Moxy Show anymore. Although that means that they would have to actually acknowledge the show exists which Cartoon Network is basically allergic to doing. Except that one time during that Ok Ko special even tho he appeared for like 2 seconds and that's about it. I'm still really hopeful for this network to succeed!!
We'll have to wait and see
Pretty sure it’s not a streaming service and I hope it isn’t because real TV is actively dying and I sorta hate streaming now. I like having my content fed to me
EVERYONE IS HERE!
1:12 as a Pluto tv user, I 100% agree with you.
I hate repetition
Initially I really liked PlutoTV, but it got to the point that I cannot stand it.
I can understand why the smaller areas are getting MeTV Toons first, as they're prioritizing streaming services such as FrndlyTV and Philo. So if you want MeTV Toons on day 1, there's your ticket.
It remains to be seen if Frndly is going to add it. The only streaming service I pay for is Sling.
But I want it for free! XD
Hey I wanted to say in an article I read they do have plans for original cartoons too. This is actually a good thing if they do this IMO
MeTV Toons?
@@ArtieRaccoonReviews yes. I need to find the article again but the network vice president I believe mentioned that they have plans for some original content too. Now they didn't say like full on cartoons or anything this could be just shorts or something I don't know but I did see that in an article and I got excited
@user-up1if6ob4xInteresting tidbit
Also metv has original toons might be cool. Just hope they won’t overdo it though if it happens
I recently purchased one of those antenna amplifiers so that hopefully, I will get good reception in my bedroom (for once) for when this channel finally launches.
*Update:* I just turned on my bedroom TV just this morning to test out the reception quality, and I found that the channel is already up to watch, however there is no real programming on it yet, just previews.
Oh, by the way, Underdog is by Total Television, not Hanna Barbera.
Kinda shocked Astroboy, the one anime OG isn't included in the lineup. Oh well. I have a feeling that at some point METV might squeeze in a Toonami style late night anime block.
It was said that they have access to lots more. These toons are just what they're starting off with.
I've seen many people requesting Astro Boy in the comments, so I wouldn't be surprised if they add it as time goes on
They should go all out and add adult and anime blocks like CN.
I hope they have the spine to air every episode of Speed Racer, uncensored.
All these are good ideas such as the original Thundercats, He-Man, She-Ra, and Gumby (both the 50's and 80's versions), but I would rule out Fat Albert due to the controversy surrounding Bill Cosby.
Awesome
I think this is mostly a preservation thing, so most likely will be uncensored
Duck Dodgers, Xialoin Showdown, Freakazoid and Krypto the super dof are good 200ps cartoons.....hope the classic Animaniacs will join too as Tiny Toons and maybe Histeria! !
Maybe they'll even throw in Road Rovers!
@@ArtieRaccoonReviews Oh yeah, btw i grew up watching 4kids and DIC toons
I also watched CW Vortexx
Kimba the White Lion, Astro Boy, Felix The Cat, Gumby and Pokey, The Alice Comedies, Samurai Pizza Cats, and David The Gnome.
3:22 I swear, I got freaking excited when I saw this! I’ve always wanted to see at least 1 or 2 of them Jim Carrey animated adaptations that were aired back in the day, and thank god for buying the Ace Ventura DVD, as well as purchasing Dumb and Dumber onto Apple TV+…so I might as well have to record ALL the episodes they air and just rewatch them on repeat time and time again…😂 yes, I’m a sucker for Jim Carrey and his mostly three big hits.
The Dumb and Dumber cartoon? That one guy kind of looks like Mandark
8:18 and my TV station when it arrives, if i get it done in time.
I hope so too
@@ArtieRaccoonReviewsdo you think something missing, Garfield and friends, muppet baby, code name kids nextdoor, Ren and stimpy if comedy Central can allow, and the Tom rugger shows like animaniacs Pinky and the brain Histeria and tiny toons?
@@ArtieRaccoonReviewswhat's also missing, Batman and Superman
Hopefully, Pluto TV will pick up MeTV Toons!!!
The CENTURIONS! Man and machine! Power X Tream!
The Biscuits
Pound Puppies
Mega Man the fighting robot!
Thundarr the Barbarian
SWAT Kats ? Maybe......but not sure. They should be included.
Maybe Ruby-Spears' Skysurfer Strikeforce(1995-97)!!!
I hope Pac Man is in the line up.
Sounds amazing
Is there anywhere where I can check what channel it will be on in my area (if it will be in my area at all)?
Right here: www.rabbitears.info/search.php?request=network_search&network=Me-TV+Toons
i cann't wait till this channel launches so i can see it im hoping it will be on streaming services cause thats all i have frndlytv and metv
I hope so
@@ArtieRaccoonReviews me too
Hopefully animaniacs the TMNT original classic show everything from the emblem entertainment library and especially Garfield and friends, yeah Garfield and friends wasn't on the list sadly I hope it will soon.
I already have MeTV as part of my digital cable package so hopefully Comcast will add this one too. 🤞
They have already started. I have watched a few Saturday mornings.
If only Quick Draw McGraw was only airing reruns again. That show, including the title character, deserves more attention. Not sure why Quick Draw McGraw isn’t as recognized as the other Hanna-Barbera characters.
According to Neil Sabin (guy who runs metv) they got licenses to all of Hanna barbera so who knows
It's a possibility!
Along with Baby Looney Tunes & Krypto the Superdog, I think Captain Planet will also be another E/I fulfillment for the new channel
Honestly for E/I content, it could be a lot worse and I'll gladly take those shows over Saved by the Bell XD
Hoping saved by will now be off METV, if these 2 cartoons qualified as e/i
The Herculoids, Space Ghost, Young Samson and others would be a definite plus.
Will Space Ghost, Herculoids, Fantastic Four (1960s version) be included?
Not yet
What does could’ve been was just a rebrand of boomerang back to its glory days if it wasn’t a separate channel boomerang could’ve just changed their name to MeTV tunes just like tune. Disney became Disney XD.
I wish Toon Disney came back as a separate channel, by the way.
Or Jetix
I have no idea who has the rights to the Dungeons and Dragons cartoon, but I'd like to see it on there regardless.
Me neither
@@ArtieRaccoonReviews those characters made a cameo in the recent D&D movie, so that sounds like a good place to check. I might do that.
I hope He-Man and the Master of Universe and She-Ra: Princess of Power airs on there.
@@josephclegg3562 those are good! Let's toss in Thundercats while we're at it too.
I hope this does not replaced Cartoon Network and Boomerang all together.
Oh it won't
@@ArtieRaccoonReviews. Are you sure?
@@jakemiketta3868 Absolutely
Wish we could have this in the UK, it's so unfair we don't have channels like that
I know it sucks for you people across the pond. There's Boomerang UK, but its terrible and just modern versions of Looney Tunes and Tom and Jerry along with random shows thrown into the mix because of European content quotas.
@@ArtieRaccoonReviews Best we can do so far is either find them on DVD or find them on UA-cam. Be nice if someone would upload some classic shows for people who havn't watched shows before they were born like me for example, i love older shows then shows nowaday.
cartoons on regular tv thats old school for me being i had to wait at 3 oclock to run home to watch cartoons. saterday morning was soo much fun no V.C.R. either you watch it or you miss is for ever.
Not just that, it's crazy how nobody uses VCR or Laserdisc to record shows anymore
Such a cool but terrifying feeling 😅
Here's a list of show I want to see coming to METV toons,
Teenage mutant Ninja turtles original show and the 4kids show
HihipuffyAmiyumi, all the the emblem entertainment shows at least from the 90s and 2000s
And if METV can allow the checkered past rights, courage the cowardly Dog ❤
No CKP shows though. AS is keeping them
Extremely unlikely that Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi will air on either Cartoon Network, Boomerang, Checkered Past, or MeTV Toons since that series has complicated rights issues with SONY.
I highly doubt anything purchased by Nickelodeon in recent years would be available on a competing network or service, whether it would be Garfield or any version of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoons, as it would probably conflict with their airing on Pluto TV...
They need to bring back: Johnny Bravo, Cow and Chicken, Dexter's laboratory, samurai jack, grim the adventures of billie and manie, Courage the cowardly dog, He-man master of the universe, Sherlock holmes in the 23rd century, she-ra Princess of power, filmation studio like Ghostbusters
They should definitely air the Cartoon Cartoons!
I'll have to see if the Hartford market will have it. I don't use my tuner much, but I would tune in.
Funny enough a lot of this is what I would watch 45 years ago.
Rocky and Bullwinkle is my favorite. But I do love Speed Racer and The Jetsons.
If only they could get the Jim Terry Force 5, or Star Blazers...
This channel like basically like the old Boomerang channel, it was going to very good channel.
It's all coming back to you!
@@ArtieRaccoonReviewsI love the double meaning of the name Boomerang. It’s perfect. Not the channel though

If Silver Hawks will be there, Thunder Cats should be as well!
From the promo loop that's currently running, it does appear they'll be doing the 14:9 (compromise between 4:3 and 16:9) crop like they do on MeTV.
Also it will vary depending on the affiliate, since some stations broadcast in native 4:3 and others broadcast stretched to widescreen
@@ArtieRaccoonReviews
Well, I was wrong! They’re not going any cropping / reformatting whatsoever!! :)
No Funky Phantom?
What a crime!
Too niche I suppose
@@ArtieRaccoonReviews They’re including Dynomutt, but not Goober and the Ghost Chasers?
The channel’s doomed.
The latter is too niche
@@AndrewHalliwellWhat even are those? Attempt piracy and calm down
@@0xm ever heard of humour
Get some
