You're the second or third person to fail to explain how I'm doing that, unless you'd like to apply your own definition.

Should PM mods instead of posting here, then you may have a chance..

Edit: forgot, not supposed to talk.. meh.

Ben 10 was ok. Ben 10 Alien Force is awesome. Reminiscent of awesome 80s-90s action cartoons, but with better character development.

Ben is cocky at times, but he deserves to be. He's a charismatic character.


Alien Force was a step in the right direction, but still par for contemporary media.

Ben was a bratty kid, and he's a stuck up douche of a teenager. I'm waiting for him to have a major Heroic BSOD so he can get serious. Charisma's and arrogance might coincide, but there's a point where the latter just doesn't compliment at all.

Ben 10 is a good show. The later series are better. Alien Force and this new one that I guess they are going to call Ultimate Alien.

Can't wait for Ultimate Alien to start next Friday.

I wonder if Ben has his own comics too, some of his forms would be able to wreck shit up in a comic format. Alien X is like a Silver Surfer esque character when its not handicapped by split opinions.

Ultimate Alien, or the only preview I saw from it, looks like it's not going to go much farther with the formula, imo. "Going Ultimate"? Really? 😬 That's...just no.

Some of the alien designs I admit are pretty neat, but he's just so...haphazard with his skill.

Sucks that he'll never be able to use it right.

This relates to what I was just saying above. Ben feels too much like an Ash Ketchum, and that's probably what turns me off the most.

Dude has saved the universe at least once already, after that his head got big. That's GOOD writing. He's a 15 year old with the most powerful weapon in the universe and his name is known by everyone because of his feats. Random alien species often come to Earth groveling for him to take on their problems. And he accepts them promptly with no promise of a tangible reward ever. He brags about it a little at times to his friend Kevin and his cousin Gwen, so the hell what? You want a boring speech giving stoic or someone whose written logically for his age and subsequent feats?

Ben is a refreshing change as a main character for a cartoon network series.

Made to be how a realistic human teen would act. Portrayed quite well. Made even better when you look at what it has to compete against on cartoon netwrok.

Screw Ben, Generator Rex is where its at.

The only things I like to watch regularly on Cartoon Network now are Chowder...actually that's all I can think of. This new Adventure Time with Finn & Jake show looked interesting at first, but it irritates me. Not completely sure why.

The show about the fat purple chef thing? Odd..

I used to watch Ben 10, but not anymoar cause we don't have cable. 😐

Meh, I don't get Cartoon Network with my provider.

YTV only runs shitty Nickelodeon Cartoons. When Nickelodeon isn't showing those shitty cartoons, their schedule is full of these teen sitcoms that are even shittier, well, maybe except for ICarly which I find nice for some reason. Then there are Avatar re-run episodes & Storm Hawks episodes, which are the only things I watch on Nickelodeon. Awesome shows are awesome BTW.

I also watch Teletoon Retro, for teh Retroez, liek Supa Friendz...no, not really...just Looney Tunes, The Flinstones & The Jetsons (XD).

Also, do any of you know if they show any Tom and Jerry (Hanna-Barbera era) cartoons on any of those Canadian channels? I loved those T&J eps >__>.

I'm not sure why adult swim bothers showing bleach. I mean it hasn't been updated for months nor is it popular on the channel no more. Added to the fact that its a mediocre manga.

Dunno, but I'm appreciating her wierdness atm.

I think I just got ScreamPaste into Emily Dickinson poetry. And I don't even like poetry.

Lawl. This one in particular is exceptionally win.

Speakin' of CN, I wanna watch Adventure Time. I love Chowder and Flapjack. That Flapjack episode where there's a goat in the train was awesome.
