Just got back from the movies and one of the thing I saw during the preshow was a trailer for the new CN Real. It is a new block on Cartoon Network featuring LIVE ACTION SHOWS similar to Discovery Kids Channel. I mean come on! If Cartoon Network had to choose between that or subcumming to the teeny-bopper craze like Nick and Disney and that, I would have picked the former. Luckly though, I think these will wind up falling through like Cartoon Networks 2 last crappy attempts at live-action:Out of Jimmy's Head, and Goosebumps. They most likely won't last to season 2 but I can't say for sure.

There are several threads regarding this development. Take it to one of them.

Time to lock this...Oh, and one more note: "The Banana Splits", which contained live-action, regularly aired on CN in the 90s.
