CountFrylock Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 in this day and age marathons are just outdated when streaming exists....you don't wanna drive the viewers away to just stream the shows so they don't have to deal with these awkward pauses in the block sure next week is the DBS Marathon but it's better than being bombarded by marathons 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean the break really starts at 11:30 PM, because the block kicks off with a lone premiere episode Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sketch Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 Well I can't say I'm surprised YOU made this topic CountFryLock. It's been nice not having marathons and the amount of premieres Toonami has had this year is nothing short of astounding. I don't mind a marathon every now and then but not having one since December is a welcome change of pace. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SwimModSponges Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 I must be out of the loop; are they no longer 26 miles? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, but looking at the ratings, you must agree we probably SHOULD have had one on the 4th of July. However, I understand WHY we didn't. CN was going to gobble up the 8 PM hour (starting this Monday) and lose Dragon Ball Super's encore, which probably would have thrown it in Breach-Of-Contract. Then again, I guess they could have just encored it at 4 AM instead... Looking forward to seeing what the October 12th schedule will be (with dub premieres of OPM S2 and Demon Slayer), but if I'm right, DBS 131 will be somewhere on there... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katt_goddess Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 Personally, I tend to like the occasional marathon. That way I don't feel too bad if I pass out early. And, I do kind of rely on some marathons - like Labor Day weekend - to ensure that I don't miss any new episodes if I happen to be doing something else that evening. This year I made it back to the hotel in time but other years have been long nights. I don't want to go online to play catch-up. I'm selfish like that.

CountFrylock Posted September 28, 2019 Author Share Posted September 28, 2019 marathons make saturday nights feel empty to me....there's nothing else and usually there's not much else to do when toonami comes on 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OwlChemist81 Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 Perhaps they'll try something similar to this with Dr. Stone around Thanksgiving. (OPMS2 and DS won't quite have enough episodes out yet.) Dr. Stone is on 6-7 next Saturday, and assuming no Halloween marathon, we'd be on 15 on November 30th. That episode followed by the last 10 would be interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll bet [as] and Toonami are tempted now to start shoving marathons down our throats again! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
