OwlChemist81 Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 (edited) Starting over at...Episode 27!? Well, I guess this is logical since apparently they have indeed lost the rights to the first 26 episodes. Still too early to say for sure that it's permanently taking over the 3:30 AM timeslot, as at some point it could be taking 5:30 AM weeknights from Samurai Jack. It's certainly tame enough for that. The only caveat is that it wouldn't be followed directly by Gumball on CN; it will be followed directly by Baby Looney Tunes on CARTOONITO. Guess that makes sense. For now, it ends Toonami. But really hoping that slot eventurally goes to a newer rerun like MHA Season 5 or Yashahime.

Sketch Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 They clearly have no faith in the other handful of series they can rerun. It’s whatever at this point. I’m just mad that the TV grids might not be fixed by Saturday. They should have finalized this schedule weeks ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PokeNirvash Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 When my recordings look just the same as they always are Saturday night, I'm going to laugh at you so fucking hard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I sure hope they do. Right now Sling lists a single Rick & Morty airing from 11:30PM-4AM. There's not many days left for the grids to get updated.

OwlChemist81 Posted September 16, 2021 Author Share Posted September 16, 2021 I think DirecTV finally fixed it. I did happen to notice that now Naruto Shippuden's 5 AM airing is 5 days a week, Tuesdays-Saturdays, if you're following that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sketch Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 (edited) Yep, as of today Sling has the right schedule for Saturday. So minor crisis averted... this time. They really should not cut it so close though, especially if its just to decide which episode to restart DBS on. But since it was just DBS, they didn't post an update on Facebook at all. It's technically not a change and therefore they don't need to post the schedule on Facebook. I would like to another line-up promo before mid-October though. They updated Dr. Stones bumps last week so they might update all the other bumps soon. While I was looking forward to a Toonami without Dragon Ball Super, it's probably for the best that they keep it around for the 3:30am slot. They don't have many good options for recent shows to rerun and probably won't have many good options for that early in 2022 either. Keeping one rotating rerun slot open for Fena, Black Lotus and whatever else is sufficient. While I am all for cycling in FLCL sequels, IGPX and maybe GITS and some Adult Swim originals (namely Primal) they might as well keep using DBS for as long as its still under contract. DBS would be better used for 8pm (if they get that back in 2022) or to give Samurai Jack a break on weeknights but it's pretty ignorable at 3:30am on a Sunday morning.

ben0119 Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 But at least it's just a rerun at 3AM and not in a more prominent position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have DirecTV, and I wasn't completely unscathed. No episode number or title for MHA or Black Clover! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
