Just four words will be enough: They. Removed. SDMI's. Page!!!!!!! Search for any Scooby you want in the search engine, it only gives you the SDMI page which connects you to a CN homepage of some kind, games which link you to the same page, and the only Scooby thing around are 58 clips from the episodes!!!!!!!  CN is getting worse and worse. I really feel like Be Cool shouldn't be handed over to those guys, it will take long and endless hiatuses again, like in SDMI. |

I totally agree! CN treated SDMI very poorly and is the reason the show wasn't popular enough. By season 2 after the hiatus, it seemed like they just wanted to get rid of the show by airing the episodes so quickly without any promotion. It really is a pity as SDMI is one of my favorite scooby doo shows and not enough people know about it. If only someday it made some sort of comeback. I'm personally trying to make SDMI live on as long as I can for me at least, that's why I've been making the mini movie sets of it. By the way, I just uploaded the sets up through the beginning of season 2, links are in that thread. Anyway, I hope CN treats scooby better in the future or else scooby just finds a different channel.

One of the 'problems' with SDMI is that it has an arc story with episode leading into episode which makes it difficult to show just the 'best' or 'most popular' as the episodes depend on the ones previous. All the other Scooby shows can be shown pretty much in whatever order they want or some not at all and it doesn't matter, with SDMI it does as many episodes only make sense when you have the context of earlier episodes. It's too much trouble and they can't be bothered would be my guess.
IMO Disney XD would be a better home for SDMI.

Say what now?!? OK, these guys are total idiots!!! Be Cool should definitely be given to a channel that trully values shows, even if they like them or not. But if CN didn't like SDMI, why did they get it from Warner Bros Animation in the first place?! |

Plus, the show was getting more violent during that time. Maybe some viewers began to complain about it? (like that Simpsons spoof story I did...)
They also tended to mistreat "The Looney Tunes Show" in the same way.
Plus, the funny thing is, I remember when CN used to show a LOT of Scooby-Doo stuff, but beginning around the mid-2000s, they slowly began to start becoming a "Scooby-FREE channel." Current there is nothing Scooby-related on CN, except for the occasional movie.

CN is just terrible.
Another show that I love on CN is also treated pretty badly. It's Total Drama. Ever since Total Drama Action ended, the show has pretty much been nonexistent on the channel. Yet, they still continue to order more seasons and air them, sometimes even before Canada. The show has since rarely ever been shown on the channel. Even for new episodes, they are shown maybe once more after the original air-date, and then never again. It's pretty disappointing. This last season, they went through it entirely in two weeks, and I'm not sure if they even show it anymore. They didn't even bother to update the show's web page (it's still on last season), and have removed the other seasons' web pages (which were awesome and pretty well designed).
Hopefully they treat "Be Cool" better, it's pretty disappointing that it's now a Scooby-free channel They always show the same things over and over that I don't care for the channel anymore. I only watch for the Scooby-Doo movies and Total Drama (whenever it is on).

Arghh!! Just rechecked what's remaining of the CN Scooby page, every single thing that has to do with Scooby has disappeared. All of the Scooby games (including Crystal Cove Online, which in my opinion was one of the best Scooby games ever made) have been erased, and they are no longer available to play anywhere. CN also has a talk section for each of their shows, and they have erased every comment about Scooby. All the video clips, and character profiles have been deleted. All the Scooby pages that have been deleted now redirect to the CN homepage. Why, CN, why?  |

It was quite good, and they didn't even air the finale!! |

And now it's REMOVED?!? OK, Be Cool should be directly given to another channel!! |

Though "The Looney Tunes Show" sometimes had better animation (they did storyboards and layouts for it themselves too, instead of just sending scripts off to Korea like they did with SD:MI). But in most cases, SD:MI had the better writers, while the Looney Tunes Show just got inexperienced improv writers from the Groundlings. Another weird thing: the show was rated TV-PG, yet it was very tame, had almost no violence and was totally family-friendly (almost like an ABC TGIF sitcom without the preachiness), compared to SD:MI being very violent, dark and edgy, and having quite a bit of gore, realistic explosions and destruction, innuendos, and even death. Maybe they switched the parental ratings for both shows? (though a TV-G would've fit better for "The Looney Tunes Show.") In fact, CN began to start phasing out pre-1994 Scooby-Doo in 2004; they moved the classics to a small Saturday morning block from 4:30 AM to 6 AM ("Where Are You," "13 Ghosts" and "Pup.") I remember in the days before I had the DVDs, I would tape some of the episodes with our VCR (provided my parents weren't using it to tape and watch Celebrity Poker the night before!) I also remember for a long time, Scooby-Doo was CN's Halloween spokes-toon, but in 2005, "The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy" took over that position. Today, CN doesn't care. After CN canceled classic Looney Tunes in early July in favor of "Legends of Chima" (blech!) I have not watched the channel since then. Even their Saturday mornings have become pretty dull, often just showing boring action cartoons based on toy lines (except maybe "Teen Titans GO!" but that one also seems more comedy-oriented than its predecessor.) |
