Happy Valentine's Day!

I remember watching a Valentine's day special on Cartoon Network twice as a kid in 2004, although it was produced in 1979 with late Daws Butler as Wimpy in the special. Popeye fans think this special would air on MeTV Toons in the United States soon.

It's way past my bedtime!

From 1995 to 2001, Cartoon Network was once a 15 hour cable channel in my country. At 9 p.m. till 6 a.m., the channel was switched over to TNT (later Turner Classic Movies in 2000) & lasted until June 30, 2001 Saturday when Cartoon Network became its own 24 hour channel the following day. For me in my childhood, I would turn off the TV at 9 in the evening.

Winter time for Popeye

Here's an episode of The All New Popeye Show that doesn't have to do with Christmas when I watched it on Cartoon Network as a kid.

I remember that episode of The All New Popeye Show on Cartoon Network as a kid

I always watched that episode of The All New Popeye Show on Cartoon Network so I didn't miss a single scene. These cartoons were produced by Hanna-Barbera in the late 1970s & the early 1980s because Daws Butler is still alive.

I found something!

In late 1998, Cartoon Network (Australian and New Zealand TV channel) started the Powerhouse era which were acquired from the United States. The Powerhouse bumpers would later debut in Southeast Asia the following year, August 22 to be exact.

Dexter had no connection with Velma whatsoever

I watched that interstitial on Cartoon Network as a kid in the early 2000s.

That's rich, Richie Rich!

I remember watching that show on Cartoon Network as a kid in the late 1990s & the 2000s, although the character is currently owned by Classic Media (now DreamWorks Classics).

TCM & Cartoon Network (2000–01)

On April 2, 2000, TNT was rebranded as Turner Classic Movies. Cartoon Network was still time-shared with TCM, operating from 6:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m., with Turner Classic Movies, formerly TNT, taking the remainder of the daily schedule. On July 1, 2001, Cartoon Network Asia became a separate 24-hour channel, with exclusive local feeds for the English-speaking areas in the Philippines, India & Australia.

TNT & Cartoon Network (1995–2000)

On September 1, 1995, Cartoon Network launched in the Philippines as a dual channel with TNT, operating from 6:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m., with TNT, taking the remainder of the daily schedule. On August 22, 1999, Cartoon Network Asia began adopting Cartoon Network USA's "Powerhouse" theme. On April 2, 2000, TNT was rebranded as Turner Classic Movies.

I remember those PSAs of The All New Popeye Show on Cartoon Network as a kid

I always watched those PSAs of The All New Popeye Show on Cartoon Network so I didn't miss a single scene. Those PSAs where produced by Hanna-Barbera in the late 1970s & the early 1980s after every episode, the PSAs end with Popeye sings a safety message to kids in the tune of his theme song.

Modern Looney Tunes shorts on Cartoon Network

I watched some of the Looney Tunes shorts in the 1990s on Cartoon Network after Mel Blanc died.

 

The shorts are:

Box-Office Bunny

Chariots of Fur

Carrotblanca

 & Superior Duck.

 

Here's Box-Office Bunny.

Before The Powerpuff Girls, There was Sailor Moon

Back in 1998, I watched Sailor Moon S on ABC 5 (now TV5) when the show was dubbed in Tagalog. I do know that the Tagalog dub version of Sailor Moon premiered on ABC 5 in 1994, one year before the English dub premiered both in Canada & the United States. One of a lot of things that annoys me in the Tagalog dub is Sailor Moon's speech before the battle begins, "Ako ang magandang tagapagtanggol ng pag-ibig at katarungan! Ako si Sailor Moon! Parurusahan kita sa ngalan ng buwan!" ("I am the good champion of love and justice! I am Sailor Moon! Punish in the name of the month!"). During the airing of Sailor Moon S on ABC 5 in the Philippines, Sailor Moon aired on Cartoon Network's Toonami block every Weekday afternoon at 4 PM in the United States as of June 12, 1998 Friday. In Canada however, Sailor Moon still airs on YTV until 2004. The only season of Sailor Moon that was not English dubbed as of today is Sailor Stars, although the last season of Sailor Moon aired on ABC 5 in the Philippines in the early 2000s & it was Tagalog dubbed. Usagi Tsukino was named Bunny in the Tagalog dubs of Sailor Moon & Sailor Moon R while she was named Serena in English dubs of the four seasons of Sailor Moon. The English dub of Sailor Moon also airs in the UK, Australia & New Zealand. With the exceptions of a few anime shows such as Yaiba, all the anime shows on ABC 5 were dubbed in Tagalog, same goes to ABS-CBN, GMA 7 & IBC 13 prior to 1999, August 22, Sunday at 8 AM to be exact. The Tagalized Sailor Moon theme song was sung by Angelika Dela Cruz & I shouldn't dare to listen to that. The first English dub of Sailor Moon was done by DIC Entertainment for the first 2 seasons & edited down to 82 episodes, The next one was done by Cloverway Inc. for the next 2 seasons & the episodes were edited by Cartoon Network in the United States. It makes 166 episodes in total. In the Tagalog dub however, it had 200 episodes & 5 seasons so far on ABC 5. I hope I should be watching the English dub of Sailor Moon which was done by DIC & Cloverway & I should soon looking forward for the English dub of Sailor Stars by Viz Media for another year. Amen to the Sailor Scouts.
UPDATE 2/23/2019: Viz Media will release the English dub of Sailor Moon Sailor Stars this May.

UPDATE 7/7/2025: Here's a promo for Sailor Moon SuperS that aired on ABC 5 (now TV5) back in 1999 which was uploaded by UndustFixation on YouTube last year.

It's The Bearys!

I watched The Woody Woodpecker Show on Cartoon Network back in 2005 when I was 10 years old. The show had a series of cartoons such as Andy Panda & The Beary Family. Speaking of The Beary Family, The series was about Charlie Beary, the incompetent family man, his nagging wife Bessie, their well-meaning but half-witted teenage son Junior and their younger daughter Suzy, who later got a pet goose who never gets along with Charlie. All 28 cartoons feature the voice talents of Paul Frees & Daws Butler which both of them are dead as of July 10, 1989 Monday. I don't think those cartoons are funny.

I still watched them

When Cartoon Network started 24 hours a day in my country on July 1, 2001 Sunday, I watched reruns of original shows such as Dexter's Laboratory, Cow and Chicken & I Am Weasel. However, Dexter's Lab got new episodes on Cartoon Network between 2002 & 2004. In the mid 2000's, I can still watch Cow and Chicken & I Am Weasel on Cartoon Network when they're still in reruns. As of today, Dexter's Laboratory is the only Cartoon Network original that I could always remember.

Cartoon Showtime!

I can always remember the A Moment with Walter Lantz segments in The Woody Woodpecker Show when I watched it on Cartoon Network back in 2005.

I watched them on The All New Popeye Show

I can always remember the Private Olive Oyl segments in The All New Popeye Show when I watched it on Cartoon Network back in 2003. I don't think those segments are funny.

The Cartoon Network shows that I truely miss

When I was 8 years old, Cartoon Network started to air new episodes of every original show like Dexter's Laboratory, The Powerpuff Girls & Samurai Jack but three Cartoon Network original shows never continue with new episodes nor renew for another season as of November 3, 2003 Monday at 6 pm PHT.

1. Courage the Cowardly Dog

I first watched him on The What a Cartoon! Show before August 22, 1999 Sunday at 8 am PHT. Later, he would get his own show after 1999. The plot evolves a dog named Courage who is rescued by Muriel who lives in the middle of Nowhere with is husband, Eustace Bagge. But when creepy stuff happens in Nowhere, it's up to Courage to save his new home. Whenever Courage sees something scary, he screams a lot which it irritates me in my opinion. Many people said that this is the scariest Cartoon Network original show to date. I refuse watch that show in the mid 2000's on TV after school.

2. Sheep in the Big City

I sadly didn't watch the pilot episode from 2000, but I watched the entire show on TV. The show was the last original show to premiere on Cartoon Network in my country months before it becomes a 24 hour channel in 2001. The shows evolves a sheep named well, Sheep, who leaves the farm & moves to a new life in the big city. Unfortunately, the Secret Military Organization, commanded by General Specific, wants to use Sheep in its new sheep-powered ray gun (with a sheep-shaped hole in it). So now Sheep is on the lam(b) from General Specific, who is assisted by sidekick Private Public, the Angry Scientist (who in the show, the characters sometimes wrongly refer to as the Mad Scientist), a bunch of other military types, and, last but not least, by the Plot Device. I remember that show as a kid because the animation reminds me of Sesame Street which one of the animated segments were done by the show's creator, Mo Willems. Unlike Courage the Cowardly Dog, I still watched that show in the mid 2000's on TV after school.

3. Grim & Evil

First of all, I watched both pilots. The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy "Meet The Reaper" & Evil Con Carne. Second, I watched Grim & Evil & it watch great, I think. Billy & Mandy is a segment about two neighborhood kids who force the Grim Reaper to be their best friend forever after defeating the Messenger of Death in a game of Limbo, while Evil Con Carne is segment about the disembodied brain of an evil genius who wants to take over the world that was transplanted into a moronic circus bear. One episode that I like about the show is Trouble With Skarrina & I recommend it. Later, The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy becomes a show of its' own which I remember watching it & Evil Con Carne becomes a show of its' own which I didn't watching on Cartoon Network in my country because 1. The show is short-lived & 2. I watched The All New Popeye Show & other American cartoons before November 12, 1989 Sunday on Cartoon Network. Well, I watched reruns of Grim & Evil after November 3, 2003 Monday at 6 pm PHT after school on TV.

Cartoon Network fans wish that they want bring the shows back with new episodes but it's too late now except for Courage the Cowardly Dog. I'll never forget these shows on Cartoon Network. Next year however, Warner Home Video would release those three shows on DVD in a NTSC format with the exceptions of the first 2 seasons of Courage the Cowardly Dog. I just want to relive my childhood memories back I should avoid watching current preschool shows again from 2002 to today.
