an example of this is IFC(which used to be known as the independent film channel)now just airs crap like marathons of everybody loves raymond or VH1 airing reruns of fresh prince of bel-air and martin(starring martin lawrence) so many channels that have turned to crap and restored to airing bargain bin reruns that don't fit what the channel's theme was originally about

The Spiky Drone

what i wanna know is when did Everybody loves raymond become considered An Independent film? Answer me this IFC!

not even close which is why i think it sucks that so many companies are acting that way and doing everything they can to just kill television asap by making the linear channel nothing more than a repetitive marathon everyday so that people are forced to subscribe for even the smallest bit of variety.... the only reason tv sucks now is because they want it to suck so that people are compelled to subscribe for a streaming service look at any schedule for any network and It'll drive you nuts how repetitive it is

even today I Don't really give Hulu much of a thought.... it's cable but without being cable and has some originals tied to it however that's not the reason anyone uses it

he really does because the sentai catalogue alone isn't gonna be enough to perform in a way that would impress The Discovery bosses enough that they wouldn't interfere ps.had someone tell me "why do you care?...TV Stopped Being relevant 10 years ago! it's been dead since then"

10 years ago anime streaming was nowhere near the powerhouse it is today with everyone clamoring to get a piece of the pie Funimation had thought so little about streaming that they made a contract with toonami that they regret to this day(being unable to stream attack on titan episodes until toonami has aired it on television) and if you are gonna mention piracy(a lot of those websites are a bit too sketchy...some won't even let you view them if you are using an ad-blocker)

I'm saying this as a my hero academia fan I'd love to see season 6 on toonami but if it has to be as a bargain discount several years from now....I'm not sure if I'd want it to me it would just devalue these shows and make them look like something toonami got at the dollar store with sentai shows it's different....I Doubt many people watching toonami subscribe to hidive so whatever they pick up will be new to them Crunchyroll is far more popular and it's more likely that those fans subscribe to cr than hidive they are aware of those shows...and as they are aware they wouldn't limit themselves off the chance that toonami might be allowed to air them a couple years from now

and at that point toonami's better off getting something else no point spending money on A Hyped Season/Series whose hype has died down and interest has gotten low enough that CR basically says "Here...we've made all we can off this property you can have it for a discount"

It's asking the audience to be very patient and in the streaming landscape that's a very unrealistic request to make a little while is fine but if anyone thinks I'd wait 3-5 years to watch CR Shows on toonami instead of watching them asap they are nuts

it used to be a music channel and now it's mostly filled by reruns of martin and fresh prince of bel-air followed by whatever random reality shit show they wanna promote.... same goes for Fuse And IFC.... IFC Used to be the independent film channel and now it's the everybody loves raymond channel comedy central used to show more than just south park the office and maybe an episode of the daily show

if crunchyroll starts providing shows to toonami by 2025-2027 I'd say yeah that wasn't permanent but by that point My Interest in seeing those shows on the block would have been dead for so long MHA Season 6 for example..... would be airing six years after the season 5 finale aired on toonami

so when do you think Crunchyroll will stop playing keep away then? nothing seems to imply this is just related to titles being too fresh and popular to hand over to toonami anytime soon since even older titles seem to be off limits so i don't know why you'd think otherwise

really wondering why they thought 11:00 PM(central time zone for me)on a thursday would be a good time slot for it

😕 did i say something wrong?....

especially since it means My Hero academia dr.stone and fire force won't return.... No Season 6 MHA No Season 3 Dr Stone and No Season 3 Fire Force for toonami I'm not sure how many people will be kept around by a mostly sentai filmworks themed toonami though

Sony Certainly doesn't think....demarco did say anything sony has the rights to seems unlikely for the foreseeable future

even if [AS] had the money I'm not sure sony would be interested i believe this is less of a money thing and more just them seeing no value in working with a block on cable tv toonami needs sony more than sony needs toonami

this message makes me shake my head because with every buy-out/merger demarco and crew have had to explain what anime even is...over and over again

has anyone here been watching this?

i can't imagine doing luffy's voice for as many episodes as collen clinkenbeard has....much like clifford chapin voicing bakugo it seems like it'd be really annoying don't know why luffy's voice had to be scratchy and rough

this promo for durarara was simple but it sticks with me just because of how it plays out and the music chosen for it instills this vibe that something special is coming and you should pay attention this doesn't really happen that much anymore if at all on adultswim these days... i remember the [ASMB] and how important it was to adultswim's night owl persona once that died so did adultswim's night owl persona(which was already gone by that point thanks to the removal of the owls from most adultswim bumps) this board was formed as a replacement for the adultswim message boards....however few people here seem to give a shit about adultswim discussions and i do mean few the adultswim sub-forum is a ghost town most of the time

there's also the chance shenmue gets replaced by a new series when it's rerun concludes however that would require them to demote a series on the block...still though i don't see many options that would allow them to keep the backend rerun slots to continue with CR Titles off limits you are basically down to playing stuff that they can use at anytime and it wasn't that long ago bebop finished another rerun so can't go back to that so soon
