    This is probably by far the best block to happen not just on Cartoon Network probably of all time. It really brought life to TV programming. You can really felt the passion that went into CCF right down to every last bumper. I still love the CCF jingle. Never a Friday when I looked forward to seeing my favorite Cartoon Cartoons like Ed Edd n Eddy, Powerpuff Girls, Courage, Johnny Bravo, and Dexter crossover in a late night block! It felt like the cartoons were more three dimensional and really felt like they were pals and us as an audience were in on the fun.
    It really would've been great if the current management at CN cared enough to bring this block back. I feel like it could really bring back a big spark. Can you imagine the potential of Adventure Time's Finn and Jake hosting or meeting The Powerpuff Girls or Regular Show's Mordecai and Rigby hanging with the Eds? There's so much material that can really make a Friday memorable.
    A CCF reunion is honestly what CN should've done to celebrate their 25th anniversary instead of the disappointment execs gave by doing nothing which honestly felt insulting. It was such a missed opportunity. I feel like if they were to revive this block and combine old & new shows to rotate hosting duties so they can promote the new stuff like Adventure Time or Steven Universe, CN would be a huge success to rival Nick and even stand on top them in ratings like back in their heyday in the 2000s
    Example we could have Double D talk about the new episodes of Apple and Onion and have an episode similar to how Johnny and Chicken interrupt him like with the Sheep in the Big City premiere(yes I remember it) but this time have Mordecai and Rigby mess around with Double D when he's trying to talk about the premiere of Craig of the Creek.

      Kitty Cat Sweetheart it is weird. I barely remember any of their live action shows. I only remember Dude What Eould Halpen, Destroy Build Destroy, Hole In The Wall, Hall of Game Awards, the no bullying propaganda, Inside Jimmy's Head (but I oddly don't remember the laughing soundtrack of that show) and that ghost hunting show that I don't understand how it got approved for kids.

  • @AJ-xc4qe
    @AJ-xc4qe Před 2 lety

    I think the reasons why they ended the Cartoon Cartoon brand is because
    1. Cartoon Network wanted to diversify its programming to action cartoons with Cartoon Network Studios making action cartoons like Samurai Jack and Megas XLR. And that the Cartoon Cartoon brand is normally associated to their less serious/more comedic shows
    And 2. They wanted Fridays to permanently include Duck Dodgers and What's New Scooby Doo in the schedule but couldn't because they're not Cartoon Cartoons, they're Warner Bros cartoons
    Edit: I loved the (just) Fridays era, too. Not as much, but still. I had the biggest crush on Tara and the other girl host, tho I barely even remember her name. And I loved the skits and celebrity appearances! And one good thing I'll say about Fried Dynamite is that I knew who Charlie from Lemonade Mouth was but everyone else did when he hosted that block!

  • @na5794
    @na5794 Před 6 lety +1

    I look forward to what was wrong with “Fridays” becuz i loved its friday night for CN, i mean i watched it regardless, but the human hosts made it better for me, i remember cartoon cartoon fridays too and enjoyed it thoroughly, but Fridays had an excellent balance of human and cartoons.
    The humans would host Fridays and the rest of the time, between episodes/bumpers were cartoons out about about in the world or dope ass music videos like secret formula and Courahge

  • @GatorRay
    @GatorRay Před 6 lety +3

    Now can you do: Fox Kids, Fox Box, CW4KIDS, CW4KIDS Toonzai & Vortexx? 10:39 Also I suppose you could say the variety in hosts that year wasn't to BAAAAAD (Yes I made that sheep pun on purpose) Also Kids WB is next. Ironic because Cartoon Network nowadays to me feels like Kids WB 2 because they show nothing but Teen Titans Go.

    Kids and adults can/should love cartoons TOGETHER. It is adults that make this content, it is adults who will have to suffer the reruns with the child(ren.)
    TTG insults and scolds the audience for demanding more than the lazy GARBAGE content.
    But if there is anything we demand, it's HEART in our cartoons. It's so sad SU is given a trunk spot to the sloth that is TTG. And Disney XD is on the rise with shows like StarButterflyvs......

    Cartoon Cartoon Fridays was such a success to the point where I feel like Cartoon Network is now trying to do something kinda like that. But not an a way that is interesting to any of the CN fans. Because one, they still air countless marathons of Teen Titans Go, two, the shows that they air on the network are all generic and feel the same, and three, the bumpers that they have for the new Friday block are just terrible and boring. Cause back when Cartoon Network was all about originality, they had bumpers that were really interesting to see. Now a days it's nothing but just neyon colored short cartoon slides and lame promos.

    • @robertjohnson7552
