Cartoon Planet reruns on Adult Swim

Me happy.

Cartoon Planet, a personal favorite of mine, is being re-aired during Adult Swim. The series was a spin-off of Space Ghost: Coast to Coast and was geared towards a younger crowd but still maintained the surreality and goofiness of the original. Space Ghost hosted the show with his sidekicks/enemies Zorak and Brak. Of course, the show airs at 5:30 a.m., but hey, that's why God invented the DVR*, right? Cartoons from Bugs Bunny and Popeye and the like would be shown between segments featuring songs, poems, and other assorted nonsense from Space Ghost and his pals.

*Matthew 13:5: "And so it was in the town of Bethlehem the Angel Gabriel did descend from heaven with DVRs for all the people, for they had crops to tend to, but none could stand to miss the Lakers game, and were low of spirit."

This is very upsetting... as a huge Cartoon Planet fan, I'm glad to see the show return. But as you mentioned earlier, thanks to the miracle that is a DVR I discovered a little show called Mr. T that AS would air daily at 5:30.
In the beginning I watched the show to laugh at the terrible animation errors. But after about 15 episodes, I was wrapped up in the series! With the constant introduction of new characters (Skye, Garcia) and the intense action that only a gymnastics team could provide, I finally had something to look forward to after coming home from work.
Maybe, hopefully, they are moving its time slot. Because if I never see this show again I might not have the strength to continue...
