# JBVO

JBVO: Your All Request Cartoon Show (or JBVO for short) is an American anthology talk show programming block that aired Sundays from February 9, 2000, to January 14, 2001, with reruns continuing until it was fully removed in August 26, 2001, on Cartoon Network as a supplement to Johnny Bravo. In the show hosted by Johnny Bravo, along with some infrequent guest stars such as Chicken (from Cow and Chicken), callers would write into the show via mail or through the Cartoon Network website.
Production continued after its pilot aired. In February 2000, Johnny "hosted" Cartoon Network live in the UK from February 21–25, two months before JBVO officially premiered in the US. This event was called The Big Bravo-Live!, as it was based on another successful block Johnny hosted in late 1999 by the same name. The block premiered on April 2, 2000, as JBVO.
A marathon titled JBVO Weekend aired in 2000. By late 2000, the block's popularity was waning. Series creator Van Partible was not interested in making JBVO to begin with. On January 14, 2001, the series ended after 1 season and 28 episodes produced. The show still continued to air reruns until August 26, 2001.

## Premise

Like The Moxy Show and Space Ghost Coast to Coast, Johnny Bravo is the host of the show, along with some infrequent guest stars such as Chicken (from Cow and Chicken). Callers would write into the show via mail or through the Cartoon Network website to call the show and request a cartoon from Cartoon Network's cartoon library, including shorts and shows from Warner Brothers, MGM, Hanna-Barbera, Cartoon Network, and other acquired shorts by Cartoon Network which would then be played, with an exception of half-hour-long shows.
One caller of the show named Jennifer requested an episode of Dragon Ball Z. Being that it was a half-hour long, Johnny regretfully had to fast-forward through the entire episode with Johnny providing only expositional commentary. Afterward, Johnny apologized to the caller for the inconvenience.

## Production

JBVO was animated using a beta version of Kaydara's FilmBox On-Air software. A selection of animation clips were sequenced together and triggered by an operator based on the conversations Johnny was having with live callers.

## Future broadcasts after January 2001

Although the show continued to air reruns until August 2001, new segments were no longer being produced by early 2001. Instead, Cartoon Network would edit previous episodes to remove any mentions of their original airdate.

## Spinoffs
### Toon:FM

Toon:FM (or ToonFM) was a morning programming block that aired on the Cartoon Network United Kingdom channel and throughout Europe. The show is hosted by Johnny Bravo with Space Ghost character Brak. It is unknown when the show aired and ended, however, a "he-mail" Johnny answered on The Big Bravo page of the CN UK website implies the show was already airing by June 2001, or perhaps on hiatus. It is also unknown if the show was connected to the radio station by the same name as the station was launched in October 1999. In October 2001, the sequel was greenlit to a second season to the show being hosted in Tokyo, Japan, called Toon FM: Live From Tokyo.

### Viva Las Bravo

Another sequel named Viva Las Bravo was aired from 2005 to 2006 on afternoon summers. Every day Johnny would announce three cartoons, and the one getting the highest votes via email or on CartoonNetworkHQ.net would be shown for two hours the next day. He would also constantly appear in commercial breaks, cracking jokes or answering humorous emails and phone calls.

## Rumored merchandise

There was also a version filed for clothing use. 'JBVO' was once used in the URL for the Johnny Bravo section of the online Cartoon Network Shop, however no merchandise made for the spin-off itself is known to exist. This trademark was also abandoned in June 2003.
