As Dreamers Do Part Deux

I was about to ask why IGPX was dubbed by United Artists instead of Turner, considering IGPX was a Toonami original, but then I remember Turner bought UA and MGM ITTL.
Correct.
Paramount will take over the dubbing if the merger clears the last few legal hurdles.
So basically, it's all anime, and its 3/8th reruns?
And you forgot to list One Piece as a major property for Lionsgate.
Cool!
So.......
After this merger, can CN FINALLY get a relaunch and can Toonami get some new shows and some that are AMERICAN?
Why is Avatar and Danny Phantom not on Toonami?
@UNIVERSAL.EXE
Also, keep in mind that 20th Century-Fox (Disney) and New Line (Saban Metromedia) each pass out the cable rights to their anime dubs to the highest bidders. That means you see a little bit from both on Toonami (Cartoon Network), Animax and Bullet Train (USACX).

Ah ok.
So Paramount could finally start dubbing anime now!
I suggested Baka & Test, but I dunno... that show's pretty ecchi sometimes. Maybe have that one air on Adult Swim? Does Adult Swim have an anime block like IOTL?

Danny Phantom at the moment is on hiatus due to the legal issues that surrounded its creator, who shall not be named any further.

1: Yes! This is wonderful news!
2: If it does, who should they partner with next?
3: I do not have high hopes for John Cena as Popeye, but maybe he can just be a team player in the ensemble movies, like The Hulk in OTL's MCU?
4: Thank goodness, although I would not really blame them for trying that.
5: Speaking of modern anime, Internet fandoms, and Mountain Dew, will Taco Bell still have their Locos Tacos ITTL?
6: Oh, that'll be delicious. Ironic, coming right off the heels of a fast food deal to promote a ramen junkie.
7: As a Disney lover on the Autism spectrum, I absolutely approve of this.
8: Not a wrestling fan, but I won't mind either outcome for WCW.
1: The fact that UA has more than one show on Toonami now is great, and you can't go wrong with Duel Masters.
2: I'm surprised that Blue Dragon is a Disney dub. Is it because you can trace a connection between it and Square Enix's Dragon Quest?
3: While I do love that One Piece is on Toonami, and the overall variety of studios is very commendable, I'm amazed at Sailor Moon's longevity on television. One would think that show would be booted off at some point.
Midori Days (United Artists).
Here's the first episode for those unfamiliar.
But mainly I have it there as an excuse for Adult Swim to have a promo with this line...
Butt-Head (Mike Judge): "Uhhh...how does she, like, take a dump? Huh-huh?"
DDBut seriously, this does feel like a good AS show. I can see the promos for it now.
Any others? Can you maybe give a LIST instead of one show at a time?
If the DOJ stipulates a breakup of the BBC's ties with Paramount, the BBC could look for Peacock, CBS Discovery or Henson to pick them up on the rebound. Remember, that's IF, not necessarily when.
Yes, Hironobu Sakaguchi did create Blue Dragon after having made Final Fantasy.
Sailor Moon has more staying power than OTL. The live action movie trilogy made at the turn of millennium helped a bit despite mixed reviews.
Also, Peacock has had to gear USACX's Bullet Train block more for adults to avoid conflicts of interest with Animax which they also own.
If that's the case, my vote would go to Henson.
I see. In that case, has Fullmetal Alchemist been dubbed at any point ITTL? If so, then by whom?
That explains it.
Smart choice.
Ok, so I figured out what Toonami's lineup should be come 2010:
- Generator Rex
- Sym-Bionic Titan
- Savage Dragon(a NEW animated series)
- Cyberforce
- Youngblood
- Danny Phantom
- Phantasy Star
- One Piece
- D-Gray Man
- Soul Eater
- Gunslinger Girl
- Hell Girl
- Witchblade(the anime)
- Spawn(including NEW episodes)
- The Venture Brothers.
- Shinobi(original anime)
- Bakugan
- TUFF Puppy
- Plastic Man
- Tamagotchi(the anime)
- Mermaid Melody
- Save Me Lollipop!
- Twelve Forever
- The Mighty B!
@QTXAdsy Here's what I'm picturing for the continuity before a BBC 2 transmission of Urusei Yatsura...
Voiceover:
"On BBC 2, we present the Japanese cartoon Urusei Yatsura, translated into the English language by Twentieth Century-Fox. The BBC would like to remind parents that the programme is intended for ages 13 and over and discretion is advised for viewing by younger children."

Unofficially, the BBC's dealings with Paramount ITTL go back much further. Here's an example of a voiceover British viewers heard before BBC 1 transmissions of The Godfather: A Novel For Television.
"On BBC 1, we present The Godfather: A Novel For Television. The BBC would like to remind viewers that the series is intended for mature audiences. Although it is a fictional story of the criminal underworld, it would be erroneous and unfair to suggest the violence contained in this programme is representative of the entire Italian diaspora or that of any other nationality."
We'll that's excellent work! But as the DOJ and Congress are preparing to approve the TBS-Paramount merger, we will see a spin-off of the sports leagues to new owners:
Atlanta Flames (NHL): Mark Cuban
Atlanta Hammers (MLB): Jerry Bruckheimer
Jacksonville Tomcats (WLAF; 50%): The Jim Henson Company
WCW: TimeWarner
Goodwill Games: Lionsgate
But the BBC is eyeing a new deal with CBS Discovery to pick them up.
