Who you want to feel is your business. I don't wanna get involved in any of that stuff.

ROFL!!! Laughing
Seriously, though, Yaoi "Gurl", YYH and RK have been playing on that station for at least 2-3 years. Don't you think it's time for some new shows? Also, both of those are available on DVD, so you can watch them again and again on your schedule. And as any good RK fan will tell you, the Cartoon Network version isn't even worth watching.

Cartoon Network lost the TV rights to Rurouni Kenshin, and I'm fairly sure they also lost the rights to YYH. There is nothing that can be done about that shy of forking over more money to the companies with the licenses, and given they've played out both series over the last few years, it really wouldn't make sense to reobtain the TV rights to things that would be almost entirely reruns when they don't even have a weekday action block anymore. Additionally, they're both out on DVD, so if they're that important to you, you can get them that way.

No on both. We *thought* they lost the rights to Kenshin, but they surprised us by bringing it back to Toonami only a few months ago. However they weren't very well received by fans so they fulled it from the schedule again. It was probably a last ditch effort to see if it would be worth renewing, It's likely this time they'll actually let it expire.

YYH on the other hand they do still have the rights to, they're simply waiting for the right time to show the new episodes.

Seeing the fangirlish way you type and your flagrant disregard for the English language, if I was working at Time Warner and got your phonecall, I wouldn't even give you the time of day or even transfer you to the switchboard. Besides knowing that calling up someone and complaining about scheduling (which the person on the phone can't control), being a fan"gurl" about it certainly doesn't help.

So your favorite shows aren't on CN anymore. Get over it. Buy the DVDs, for chrissakes. Then you can watch it as much as you want.

Sure, I'll transfer you right over... *click*... oops, did I hit release instead? Well, at least she's not on my phone anymore. Next call... oh wait, I gotta tell my friend next to me about this twit I was just talking to...



***just as a disclaimer, I don't intentionally hang up on anybody at my job like that... the rest is fairly true about a call center environment though. If you are a decent intelligent caller/customer however, you are unlikely to be made fun of. Wink

Um, what? That was painful to read

Anyways, shows come and shows go, you should be happy that they lasted as long as they did as many shows don't even last half that time.

I'd say about now to write them a letter as your next step, but that'd be a cruel joke really so I won't.

I have no problem wiht your name. I thought I gave you a perfectly fine explanation. To tell you the truth, I actually thought this was a joke. It just seemed too perfect that you'd refer to yourself as a "gurl" and then have horrible english. Do you know who i feel?

It was a double post. If a mod could merge the two topics and remove the duplicate posts that would be great.
