Yes I submitted this...and made some crap up, but who cares...I really iek CN about as much as Mattel...
Just wanted to comment on the fact that you guys have Transformers, one of the hottest boys properties out right now, in the crappiest time slot. I do love that you play blocks of new episodes, but as usual they are few and far between. Because you choose not to give it a regular time slot, you lose lots of viewers, except for the fanbase...which desperately tries to keep up with your sporadic scheduling...of not just this show but others as well Justice League and Masters of the Universe to name a couple. You need to pick a time slot (a decent one) and stick with it. Jacking around with the schedule only leads down the path Masters went. IT is very sad that you do not understand that. I sincerely hope you pass this along to whoever is in charge of programming. Just because a show does not immediately command the viewer numbers you are wanting, doesn't mean it can't. You leave a show in the same time slot for so few weeks, just when people get used to it, you either pull it for a few weeks then start it at another time slot from the beginning of the series (usually a poor time slot at that) or you pull it mid season and then play the last half the last part of the year. Not a good way to capture viewers. If you paid attention to the message boards like www.toynewsi.com, www.tfans.com, and www.tformers.com, you would realize there is discension among your viewers. Not only that but people already have grudges against you for your treatment of the MAsters series. You did the same thing and now we no longer have it...poor programming doesn't help. You can't take all the blame for Masters, most of it was actually Mattel's Marketing (very poor), but the way you all switch time slots is just as bad in my eyes and many others also. I realize message boards only represent a small sampling, but with a Live action TF movie in the works, you would think Cartoon Network would respect the franchise a lot more than they do. There are already petitions to Hasbro going around to get it pulled from your station beginning with the new Cybertron series. If you truly respect the franchise and the fan base, youw ill take this into consideration. Thank you for your time.
