Head of Cartoon Network resigning because of Boston incident. - VGF

Beam Yosho the Drunkard · 02-10-2007, 05:27 AM

Jim Sample, head of Cartoon Network, resigned today because of the Boston bullsh*t.

A real damn shame, because he greenlighted JLA and Samurai Jack, as well created Toonami and Adult Swim.

I sure hope you can see this because I'm doing it as hard as I can.

Woah, crap, he's resigning? And also, what Boston incident?

LinkManDX... FACE · 02-10-2007, 10:00 AM

^The one with the Lite Brites.

Wow... overblown much.

PF believes in H. Dent · 02-10-2007, 11:11 AM

It still amazes me how people can mistake Lite Brites for bombs.

Galefore · 02-10-2007, 02:30 PM

Damn. That's sad. Hopefully, all the progress he made during his reign shan't be altered by his replacement.

Smarmy Vent · 02-10-2007, 02:34 PM

People from Boston must be dumbasses.

"lol hay guyz lets cancel all good shows on this network like ed edd n eddy, bleach, robot chicken, etc."

**L007 is Undecided** · 02-10-2007, 04:45 PM

Is this the guy who also let crap like 12 Oz. Mouse, Squidbillies, Camp Lazlo, My Gym Partner's a Monkey, Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends, Squirrel Boy, Life and Times of Juniper Lee, Atomic Betty, Krypto the Superdog, ALL THOSE DAMN SCOOBY DOO SERIES, Wulin Warriors, and anything else designed to test my blood pressure air?

MasaFACE · 02-10-2007, 05:47 PM

^ Yes.

Guildmaster · 02-10-2007, 07:08 PM

You know all I have to say for this is that it sucks,and that yes, quite a few of those shows that you mentioned do also make my blood boil,but he still had many great acclomplishments with the network,and for that i solute him.

Smarmy Vent · 02-10-2007, 07:10 PM

Who knows what turn Cartoon Network will take now.

Mikhail Gorbachev · 02-10-2007, 07:13 PM

This is as ridiculous as the entire incident.

I really don't care if he's leaving. Beam's list and L007's list show that he basically said yes to anything. It's not like he actually did any of the work on those shows. Now, if, say, Antonucci resigned... well, that would suck.

**Wyborn** · 02-11-2007, 07:30 PM

Does this mean we get more Megas XLR?

No?

Then I don't care!

Chunky Kong12345 · 02-11-2007, 07:49 PM

Was that the head's decision or was it the creator's decision, to cancel it?

MC Luigi · 02-20-2007, 11:05 AM

I hope this doesn't affect those few cool things on CN like Samurai Jack, Ben 10,(YES I WATCH THAT SHOW DONT BOTHER ME) Toonami, Bleach, Adult Swim, and stuff like that. But I hate Cartoon Network, which I used to like as a little kid. But all these stupid shows nowadays piss me off, so I don't watch CN. Sometimes I watch Toonami and Ben 10, and I love Adult Swim. My point is, this event hopefully won't effect the cool shows and bring more stupid shows in.

wariovswario · 03-03-2007, 08:43 AM

the mayor of boston has been planning to boycott the aqua teen hunger force movie as well. He's a true idiot.

MasaFACE · 03-03-2007, 09:29 AM

That guy is a fool.
