glad some one is bringing it back. I really enjoyed it

3

Ha! I love Jack! This was an awesome show, but I never got to finish it. Didn’t they make a movie for it as well?

4

Couldn’t really find much about a movie:

Frederator Blogs: It’s Been a Busy Day

I think they ran out of funds.

5

Yea, that’s two years old so I guess so. That’s a bummer, it would been a great one. I like all of that guy’s shows.

6

Good times. I always watch cartoon network just to see this show.

7

The last Toonami show :frowning:

I loved this show, watched it when it first began, watched it on the Jetstream, I just really liked the show.

His fight against the shinobi robot is one of if not the best fight ever done.

8

Cartoonetwork Died when they Canceled toonami. Toonami was the best thing to ever happen to anime in america Am right?

9

Yes, you are. I enjoyed Miguzi too.

And I do miss Jack. It was sad when Mako (voice of Aku) died. Even if they do more with it, it won’t be the same without him. :frowning:

10

You did read that Boomerang is showing Samurai Jack right now, didn’t you?

11

Yes, I found it on Boomerang and I am watching it again.

12

Or…you can just get them on dvd an watch it anytime you want. I think I’ll watch it right now.

13

Starting tomorrow night (Saturday, August 29), they are starting at the beginning again.

14

I never really watched it. It seemed to appeal too much for little kids.

15

If anyone’s interested, this is starting over on Boomerang.

First episode tomorrow night, Monday, August 2 @ 11:00pm ET/10:00pm CT

16

I don’t know if it’s just me or what but when I look at Boomerang Nighttime, it really makes me think Toonami is still with us. You got Pokemon, Samurai Jack, The Batman, Teen Titans, Jonny Quest, etc. It’s good to see a classic network get involved with what made CN so great in years past.

Samurai Jack is great TV. I’m glad Boomerang is sticking with it. :slight_smile:

17

What I want to know is why is Robin the leader of the Teen Titans? He doesn’t even have a power. But I like seeing those shows again too. With some of the stupid cartoons kids are watching nowadays Samurai Jack was really unique.

18

I will totally watch this, if I have the channel. Never finished that show, but I’d really like to.

19

Yeah and back in 2002 Toonami had some neat shows alongside it.
