Now why would you suppose Directv would add The Cartoon Network West?.. When so many of us have DVR's and there are so many other channels that we would like to have that we don't.... Like......

Cartoon west in sd won't take up hardly any space, and none from and any of the sats broadcasting in HD... so its really not a big deal...

*SHRUG* How many households do NOT have a DVR, or have additional receivers which are nor DVR enabled? I suspect that it is a contractual issue. I would have probably cared more too had Adult Swim not KO-ed all of the anime series.

Although, personally, I would have liked to see ImaginAsianTV. How about adding all of the mossing premium channels that I don't subscribe to anyways?

Just ignore Paulie, he thinks he's the only one on the planet, if he doesn't like something, it must suck. His opinion is all that matters, he has no reguard for anyone elses opinions or likes.

Why did they create Cartoon West when cartoons suck?
I was thinking the same thing, except substitute "any sports channel" for Cartoon Network West... Or "Any Premium Movie Channel because all movies these days suck" for Cartoon Network West.

Different strokes for different folks, or somesuch.

Warning! Warning! Those are fighting words among the animation community. That goes double with the Anime community.

Yes, there are some surprising well-written animations out there. There are also a lot of insipid 'toons out there also. Some of it is because of the Network standards who make some VERY unusual requests that totally change the concept. (Like insisting that the characters wear seatbelts.... even when riding a motorcycle).

I hereby challenge you to watch The Iron Giant. It was made in the last 10 years. It's a good movie that didn't do well in the box office. The guy who did Iron Giant, Brad Bird, also went on and wrote The Incredibles.

(Oh yeah, and Shopping Channels suck too, but they remain. Sigh)
