My feelings exactly. While the art style doesn't exactly inspire confidence, if I even have CN in 2019 I'll have to approach it with an open mind!

http://programminginsider.com/saturday-final-ratings-celtics-cavaliers-game-3-on-espn-draws-most-viewed-non-elimination-nba-conference-final-telecast-on-a-saturday-in-nine-years/ Yeah, DBS won the night EASILY. 108% retention in total viewers over Family Guy, and record retention in adults 18-49! Too bad the valley between it and everything else is just so huge...

They got the times wrong. Wonder if that's right, then? If so, then the ratings might actually be for the half-hour and not necessarily the show, but I guess we'll never really know for sure. 5/19/18 - Adults 18-49 Show Total Viewers Adults 18-49 Family Guy 448,000 DBS 575,000 128.35% DBZKFC 442,000 76.87% MHA 336,000 76.02% FLCL 309,000 91.96% JoJo 312,000 100.97% BClover 313,000 100.32% HxH 287,000 91.69% Shippuden 273,000 95.12% Dandy 242,000 88.64% Bebop 216,000 89.26% GITS 206,000 95.37% AVERAGE 318,739 12th Assuming they're right, and with the same formula used to calculate total viewer average, that average is still better than last week's in 18-49, and 12th so far for the year, still just barely below average. But if Dragon Ball Super continues to be a Superstar and with new World Premiere FLCL coming in at Midnight in 2 weeks, we might have a big shakeup here!

Wow, despite the weak start, the rest of the block actually showed pretty good resilience! At least it stayed out of the 300Ks and over 0.15 18-49! http://www.showbuzzdaily.com/articles/showbuzzdailys-top-150-saturday-cable-originals-network-finals-5-19-2018.html The Adult Swim line-up performed as follows: DRAGON BALL at the same 0.45/0.34 as last week, MY HERO ACADEMIA down 0.01 to 0.26/554K, FOOLY COOLY steady at 0.24/485K, JOJO’S BIZARRE ADVENTURE steady at 0.24, HUNTER X HUNTER up 0.03 to 0.24/480K, BLACK CLOVER up 0.03 to 0.22/440K, NARUTO up 0.03 to 0.21/415K, SPACE DANDY up 0.05 to 0.19/361K, COWBOY BEBOP up 0.04 to 0.17/333K, and GHOST IN THE SHELL up 0.03 to 0.16/327K. Keep in mind the average below is calculated differently. Most shows are multiplied by "2", and FLCL is divided by "3", and then the sum is divided by the number of 15 minute timeslots in the block (23). The results are thus: 5/19/18 - Total Viewers Show Viewers Retention Family Guy DBS 876,000 #DIV/0! DBZKFC 686,000 78.31% MHA 554,000 80.76% FLCL 485,000 87.55% JoJo 482,000 99.38% HxH 480,000 99.59% B.

It doesn't look like the Royal Wedding affected Toonami much at all, since the ratings for the evening CNN slots dropped off quickly, but the NBA Playoff game definitely did. Even so, it seems the Toonami shows on the chart stood up to it admirably in adults 18-34.

What was it this week with characters going Super Saiyan other than Saiyans? First Shalnark in HxH, and then this Crimson Lion King guy!

Dragon Ball Super re-enters the Top 25 in Live+3 18-49 for May 7-13: http://tvbythenumbers.zap2it.com/dvr-ratings/cable-live-3-ratings-for-may-7-13-2018/ That would be Episode 63, the one that aired on May 12th. It is currently unknown how well the episode that aired on May 5th did in Live+3. But as for May 19th, in Live+SD... DBS dropped BIG time in total viewers and adults 18-34, but somehow held steady in 18-49, as did all 3 shows that are currently considered cable originals. JoJo's time is wrong; it aired at 12:45 AM. And Kai did rise 0.03 in adults 18-34. But the big story just has to be NBA playoffs effectively skewing the color scheme on everything. Even so, looks like Super came in 4th, Kai 6th, and JoJo tied for 7th in 18-34 among cable originals, meaning that they all take on a green tinge.

Live+3 and Live+7 seem to be the way to go, but then again, that's STILL only counting TVs. Oh, hey look, it's Tuesday. You know what THAT means...

The stream advanced Friday night to Episodes 16-20, a.k.a. the "Crazy Juzo Chronicles." I would have let y'all know sooner, but I didn't even get to check it out until now because it was a crazy weekend.

I'm thinking an expansion to 10 PM-5 AM on June 30th wouldn't be out of the question. There will be 7 episodes of My Hero Academia out by June 23rd, and theoretically, Toonami could play them twice like they're doing with FLCL Season 1 this weekend (which will also temporarily expand the block to 5 AM). But consider what could happen the next week: an expansion to 5 AM permanently with 2 more reruns in the back! Of course, reruns suck, but second chances are great, so where I want this to go eventually is a 10 PM-2 AM block that repeats from 2-6 AM, perhaps in 2019!

I wonder how many ladies have "inherited" his power? That's a plot hole if I ever saw one! Maybe it only works on the same sex? Maybe he has to have sex in his non-buff form just to keep them from losing their arms and legs?

I did it with the other shows; had planned to spruce this one up during Toonami but passed out.

Which means we're sadly almost never going to hear it!

Simple: Buu didn't kill every living thing other than Mr. Satan and Bee; he only killed the humans. Frog Ginyu lives in Super simply because Buu ignored him.

This was me last night from JoJo on. I actually saw ALMOST NONE of Toonami (maybe a JoJo bumper) because I had a D.D. last night and passed out as soon as I got home. But I DID catch up on DBS, DBZKai, MHA, and JoJo earlier today.

Of all the shows that have come and gone that failed to get a rerun, the one that did is LUPIN! Kinda harkens back to the old days of ACTN when Lupin reruns came on at 5 in the morning, just a couple of hours earlier. Maybe Gundam Unicorn DOES have a chance before its rights run out after all!

In my mind, the 2011 series was the franchise's shining moment, even if it was commercially a pretty big failure. And yet, this ALMOST happened--on Adult Swim's Toonami, no less! http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/WhatCouldHaveBeen/Thundercats2011

Disney X.D. still has Marvel action cartoons though, and lots of them! However, they sure aren't popular enough to get on regular Disney.

Maybe, just maybe, if Roar is successful, WB will FINALLY give us the closure we need in Thundercats 2011?? Probably TEN years later, but it COULD still happen, I guess!

I just realized what a stupid name that is. Should be called "Thundercats HO!!"
