I agree with this, however, like I mentioned earlier, they don't exactly have great distribution. You'd think that in the 6th-largest city in the USA, I'd be able to find Medabots DVDs at a major retailer somewhere other than bestbuy.com :shrug:

By the same token, The Best Buy in a relatively small city compared to some of the giants, Springfield MO, carries copies. So size doesn't really matter.

Why do they look like the Happy Tree Friends? No I mean it a few of them look like the offspring of a few HTF.

Yes I did vote, and I voted of OHBOH.

Yeah, that new show looks pretty weird. I'm surprised that 4Kids would have a show like this since it honestly does look like a preschool show, such as the Mr. Men Show. The choices for the show's name look even weirder. It could be a kind of comedy show, but I don't know. Maybe a trailer for it would make it look/sound more interesting than it is to me right now.

Uh. Did you just call Mr. Men a preschool show? Sorry, I don't agree.

That's okay. I was thinking of the new series for Mr. Men, not the original one, since I thought that I heard that it was aimed at preschoolers, but I could be completely wrong. That obviously wouldn't be the first time.

Yeah, if this is going to air on CW4Kids, it'll probably be the replacement for Will & Dewitt (I have a feeling they might keep Magi-Nation around since it kinda fits the action theme the rest of the block is having and it IS based off of an extremely obscure Game Boy Color game).

They prolly already picked the name and are just doing it to get kids hyped for it

Which is pretty much just like the TMNT theme song thing, since the name had already been decided as "Back to the Sewers", and the theme song that won had, you guessed it, Back to the Sewers repeating over and over again. :p

And I picked "OHBOHS", since it sounds the most catchy (then again, "ROTATOS" does too, but "OHBOHS" rolls off the tongue better). ^_^

I was referring to the new one, actually.

The books that it's based on are for preschoolers, but the new series is too smart for them, IMO.

4kids should gradually shift towards teens.

If there is anyone they should alienate as a sideffect, it should be overprotective parents that don't understand modern norms of animation appreciation.

Oh, okay. I wasn't sure if you were referring to the original or new cartoon. I remember seeing the books before in the children's book section, so I thought that it was aimed at preschoolers, not that's a bad thing. I haven't seen much of the new show so I wouldn't know if it would be too smart or not for them. Sorry for the confusion.

Looks like it's a popular Russian childrens show called "Smeshariki" (aka BalloonToons) odd that was not one of the names listed to pick from. It actually looks pretty interesting.

http://fungamemedia.com/ Also, TMNT and Chaotic join CW4Kids on June 21. Write a continuation where they also learn Smeshariki is hitting on that day, and what 3 shows are out the door
