EDIT: Turns out the thing i saw was "Ivans Childhood" a black and white film about the war. Apparently signals switched between Cartoon Network and Turner Classic Movies.

I remember seeing the Tickle U block when I was living at my third house around 2007. Because I had school early in the morning (around 6 in the morning), I ended catching some of it now and again. On another note, I completely forgot Princess Natasha was a thing, but I always remembered that it looked strange when I watched it as a kid; always kinda figured it looked like I was watching cutscenes from a flash game. Also, I fondly remember the days of Grim & Evil, the wedgies, and Robot Jones.

[@miguelcardona8430]

[@defectiveuser470]

Looked into it. Turns out the two cartoons didn't have a connection outside of flash that I'm aware of, but what is neat is that Princess Natasha was made by the same people (Animation Collective) that made the Wulin Warriors (and Kappa Mikey if you'd believe it). Meanwhile the studio behind Word Girl (Soup2Nuts) had their hand in some cartoon network shorts in Fridays and Sunday Pants as well as being the ones that made Assy McGee and Home Movies. The same people that made a vocabulary show that I watched as a youngster were the same ones responsible for a cartoon about a talking ass. Unfortunately both studios are shut down now but interesting connections nonetheless

[@DxBlack]

I remember "Wedgies" so vividly because it was when I first started feeling like CN was going do the drain. I'm just amazed he didn't include _Gatchaman_ or _El Cabong_ .

[@HolyGoddessMotherAnne]

[@80s_graffiti]

LucarioTube Yes! I didn't know that it was called Hero 108, until one day I found out thanks to someone else's screenshot. I was a Boomerang kid, so it played early in the morning. I was only able to see a few episodes before it was permanently taken off the airing schedule, but that show is still engraved in my memory, especially that girl with pink hair that is her weapon.

[@imstillw8ing]

I remember watching Grim and Evil when it first premiered. The two heads attempting to do their most evil laugh. The crudeness of the animation (it looked terrible compared to grim adventures of b&m). And I loved both Grim and Evil. I wish they worked on both.

[@FlameOfUdun96]

It was so generic looking so I never watched it

[@bitchypooch]

Yeah, it was a euro show so it's not on this list

[@VulpesHilarianus]

I actually liked it. I always thought of it as Gigantor 2005. Because that's basically what it was. Kid gets combat robot, kid uses combat robot to fight other combat robots. Though the fact that they had the evil scientist... What was his name, Kamikazi? Never sat well with me. It's a real shame Cartoon Network sent the show to the dead hours of school o'clock. Otherwise I'm sure the show would've been moderately successful during their decline.

[@PowahSlapEntertainmint]

I didn't like it. I was on that American Dragon Jake Long Season 1 LIFE!

[@Allanbuzzy]

I do. I live in the UK and we have CN (UK), which always aired Robotboy during the "night hours", basically what this is, is CN's European shows (Skatoony, Robotboy, Chop Socky Chooks) aired during the 9pm-12am slot, where from 12am, we get Cartoon Cartoons, Don't get your hopes up, it's just CN's typical programming at night. But the thing is, they used to have Cow and Chicken, Courage and Samurai Jack during these hours. They replaced them around April 2014, I think. But anyway, I thought Robotboy was alright, not a bad show, but wouldn't mind if it aired during the daytime hours.

[@quailmint8015]

[@BlueScarabGuy]

Dear lord that "Scar" guy in Wulin Warriors is freaking Sean Schemmel. IT'S GOKU. WHY GOKU WHY

[@g.wilson536]

BlueScarabGuy Because he didn't exactly get good until around the mid 2000's, but his notoriety of famous roles such as Goku and that blonde guy from the English dub of Tokyo Mew Mew helped keep his career alive.

[@BlueScarabGuy]

Hunter Wilson To be fair, his performance in Wulin Warriors, from that tiny clip, doesn't sound AWFUL considering the material we're talking about. Moreso I was just shocked to hear his voice. I mean, let's not forget that Schemmel also voiced at least one of the Ninja Turtles in Turtles Forever. One of the ones based on the original comics, though I don't remember which, probably Raphael.

[@g.wilson536]

BlueScarabGuy Yeah, true, not to mention he probably didn't really try with Wulin Warriors given the show we are talking about. And Turtles Forever was great.

[@BlueScarabGuy]

Hunter Wilson To be totally honest, I haven't actually SEEN Turtles Forever. But I know he's in there, I've looked up his voice credits. Not to mention that in one of the mobile games (I think Dark Knight Rises), he was BATMAN once. Lemme run that by you again. GOKU. WAS. BATMAN. Voice acting's a crazy industry.

[@g.wilson536]

BlueScarabGuy Probably used the same voice he used in Turtles Forever. They painted the comic as "dark and gritty" in the anniversary special. Raph (the 90's-2000's one) even made a joke on it.

The topic of glitches on Cartoon Network wound up bringing up this one things I swear I experienced when I was watching the channel a number of years back. There was a time that I think CN was airing either an episode during the nighttime hours, or that there was a marathon episode going on, but there was a time they were airing an episode of Pokemon Diamond and Pearl at what had to have been sometime between 5 to 8PM (EST)--I don't remember the specific time, but I recall there was one scene that occurred with Team Rocket where Meowth was nonchalantly shrugging while he was saying one of his lines. It was probably one of CN's technical difficulty bumps that kicked in, but after the scene where Meowth was speaking the broadcast was quickly cut to this short 3 second red screen that just quickly featured a variety of characters erratically displaying on the screen, standing in what I'd assume was just generic poses or their promotional character art. (I know that FHfIF's Cheese and Dexter were some of the characters that the bump quickly switched through) tied with some cartoonish melody that used either some type of synth or a funky sound close to bubble popping or burping. It ended up doing that two times or so consecutively after the previous scene with Meowth replayed a couple times. It still kind of sets me off as a mystery that I at least want to see again to know I wasn't going crazy.

[@imaginekudryavka9485]

@@mareeeedensos6348 I only now noticed your comment. No, it wasn't an anime, I'm like 99% sure of that. The charm of it was that they were puppets and the look was very similar to Wulin Warriors but it was probably more of a modern (as in, early 2000s), satirical take on the medium. As I said, they played it off as a very straightforward, dramatic soap opera, I can at least remember them laying in bed at one point and just.. being in a house. That's as much I can recall, it was a long time ago. I doubt my brother would remember any more, since he was always showing us weird, fringe clips. And again, we're talking turn of the millennium here, internet was so different back then so all this foreign stuff wasn't nearly as prevelent or easy to find, he just torrented them from God knows where. I wouldn't love David Lynch, Salad Fingers (well, that I most likely found on my own), Aphex Twin, Chrono Trigger or anything Japanese the way I do now, if it wasn't for my older brother!

I actually experienced a different glitch/air-time error when watching CN. 2005, I was 12. I would stay up past my bed time to watch Adult Swim. And I remember being awake when Adult Swim ended and it went back to CN. Camp Lazlo was on and I was about to go to bed, but I hadn't seen the episode when it aired, so I stayed up to watch it. Half way through the show the TV gets interrupted by one of those tests that local stations do for weather alerts and shit. But when the test ended, the show that came back wasn't Camp Lazlo. It was an old 80's show from France about a girl in a wheelchair. It was on for like, 15 seconds before it went back to Camp Lazlo. I thought I was dreaming. So glad to know I'm not the only person who's experienced this.

I just looked that up, and yeah! That's it! But why would that even accidentally air on CN? Do you think it was an error with the cable provider and not CN themselves? Or did CN have that show available? And if so, why in French? Why wouldn't they dub it? Why did it only play for 15 seconds in the middle of an episode when Camp Lazlo should have been on? So many questions...

[@grimgracious]

I think some cable channels share the same station that another channel might be using, if it's also owned by the same company. Perhaps whoever was manning the controls at the time accidentally sent the incorrect signal to the channel. Not sure what channel would air that, though. Public access?
