An important announcement

Hello to all my readers. Well met.

You know, a lot of you have been asking questions like "what about the rebrand"? The lack of Boing HQ information and me not having CN HQ for nearly a couple of years now are two of the factors that made the rebrand "long overdue".

But now, after months and months on end of televised unrest, we have signs of the times.

These signs were discovered by artnerfy this afternoon. Some of the games on the site are untranslated (OK, I already knew about that) but there are also untranslated forms:
"Remind your parents they should activate it through the link they have received in the registered mailbox. If you have not received the message, ask them to check the spam folder!"

This was found on the source code, the one from the CN PT website. Said source code has links to the CN HQ website (and features codes from it), which can only mean one thing: it's coming back.

Also, the CN HQ source code is in Spanish and Portuguese (because this design was adapted from a CN LA design):
Depending on the relevance, this appears to be debatable, but there's more:

An "auth.cartoonnetworkeurope.com" page, which only developers can access, and if you go to cartoonnetworkeurope.com, clicking on PORTUGAL still gives you the CN PT site, but the source still says CN HQ. For some time (and artnerfy is right), the source said "PT", but now there appears to be a change of mentality.

So what do these discoveries mean? CN HQ will probably come back at some stage! I can't wait!
In other words, given my analogies, the mermen are coming!

An analogy with the last episode of Flapjack


The mermen represent CN HQ.
Flapjack and K'nuckles both represent CN PT.
CN PT disturbs the lifestyle of the mermen, which all represent longtime CN HQ watchers, then CN PT is infected by technical mistakes every day, as if it was the Fish Flu.
So it's kind of nice to see an episode of Flapjack giving, in 2015, an analogy on the current state of CN PT.
And Flapjack was never dubbed over here, which means that there's an extra meaning: it also represents a show that will never air unless a loophole is found.
Kind of like they predicted something.

Whatever, the mermen will win if CN HQ returns.

A dream from artnerfy on CN HQ

It happened to him today, talked to him via Facebook and allowed to post it here.

Basically he was watching TV, then NOS channel 45 was reactivated. It was going to be the new home of CN HQ which was going to return. CN HQ was, according to the dream, going to be relaunched in three days.

The infocard was made by NOS, saying that "o inglês no Cartoon Network está a voltar", then on channel 47 (CN PT), they were having faults upon faults upon faults while airing the Ed, Edd n Eddy episode "The Ed-Touchables", and the show was subtitled into Portuguese.

Basically, that was it.

Sacking

I have already talked about sacking when Boomerang CEE had audio track issues, but now they're trying to be 4Kids or AB (who edited animes for the French market and made their earworm theme songs).
Now CN PT is full of technical problems and I have to command these mermen to sack the few Portuguese employees.

Current Boing HQ schedule

DISCLAIMER: Montage Cable TV has removed the Boing HQ schedules for weeks on end, which resulted in another long delay of this blog rebrand. I know that the Algerian bloke who runs NTSFR Fansub has already put the link to my blog featuring his self-made logo for my blog, but the delays have to do with the lack of fruitful information about the new channel on the internet. Without further ado, here's the schedule, which I put as "current" because I'm pretty sure that the schedule was different last month, yet there was no information.

WEEKDAYS:
05:00 - Camp Lazlo
05:45 - Dexter's Laboratory
06:30 - Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends
07:15 - Codename: Kids Next Door
08:00 - The Life and Times of Juniper Lee
08:45 - My Gym Partner's a Monkey
09:30 - Camp Lazlo
10:15 - Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends
11:00 - Codename: Kids Next Door
11:45 - The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy
12:30 - Johnny Bravo
13:15 - Batman: The Brave and the Bold
13:40 - Green Lantern: TAS
14:00 - Courage the Cowardly Dog
14:45 - Codename: Kids Next Door
15:30 - Dexter's Laboratory
16:15 - Angelo Rules
17:00 - Camp Lazlo
17:45 - Johnny Bravo
18:30 - Dexter's Laboratory
19:15 - Batman: The Brave and the Bold
19:40 - Green Lantern: TAS

02:00 - Johnny Bravo
02:45 - The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy
03:30 - Courage the Cowardly Dog
04:15 - Codename: Kids Next Door

Weekend schedule to follow.

Nice to see that they've added a couple of shows but it still suffers from the deadly "double" and "quadruple" slot syndrome.

The CN PT magazine has hit new lows

The owner of RegularCapital.com sent it privately to me this morning and I've decided to share it with the general public. This was found on 9GAG.

Apparently CN PT (which I hate, just look at the archived posts, please don't give me another one opf those rants) has had a magazine since last May.

Just like competing channel Canal Panda, the magazine offers toys.

And what a strange toy it is. It's not merchandise linked to any show, not even Johnny Test. See for yourself...
First of all, I'd like to say that the following image is NSFW, and, in order to watch NSFW images on 9GAG, you just have to log in. Nowadays I just don't give attention to 9GAG, it helped me shape in 2012 and back then, you simply had to click on the image to look at an NSFW image. Now it's all about logging in.

Ladies and gentlemen: this is a fail.

Proceed if you dare.









AAAAAAAHHHHHH!!! What is that? It's a phallic penile shark squirt gun!

What happened to the makers of this toy when they gave it the green light? CANNOT BE UNSEEN!

EDIT: It is infact the latest issue and it squirts, so we're probably seeing some metaphor.

Hint: read Cymuned's Cym Rag.

EDIT +1: I've seen it at my local Continente supermarket at Minho Center and it really is a shark, but it still looks phallic.

WHY, INDIA?!

You already know that India has the worst Cartoon Network in existence.

They gave them GAOBAM but gave it an intro to match the Indian lifestyle.

But there's a show which does that for the worst.

Regular Show, which has the worst Portuguese dub of all-time, now has the worst Hindi theme song of all-time.

Seriously, just play it. You won't believe until you hear it.

I'd like to thank szjdfgs for finding this at desitvforum.net - also there's no logo, there are no title cards and it's capable of making it a ringtone.

Stop. Seriously, stop. I am now feeling like the time I looked at that Mexican fancomic where they go to Atlantis from Mexico and now I feel sorry for all those cheap mockmakers in existence because they just feel like it.
