Toonami on right now!? Is this an April Fool's troll?

They aired Goosebumps on CN for a couple of years at Halloween. I think they lost the rights though, I haven't seen it on the last couple of years.

And you're the first person on the internet to use this stance to side step the issue of quality. Super original. Really.
Really? Was it a Nick thing before that, because I remember it being on there. (Could be wrong though.)

No, Nick had Are You Afraid of the Dark (and the two shows shared the exact same plots for many episodes)

It was a fox kids show originally.
you are thinking of are you afraid of the dark... Awesome show as well.
Goosebumps was on Fox Kids.

What the hell is wrong with that?
Ah, okay that makes sense! I'm trying to remember if I've actually seen that show then. I know I read some of the books, as they were big back when I was in school. Everybody read Goosebumps!

So if this is legit, is this a weekly thing?

It's a one off for April Fools as far as we know.
What's the originality of his argument got to do with its factual basis in reality?
Maybe Kai has just spoiled me, but the DBZ episode just had nothing happening for so long, lol. I'm telling you guys, though, I'm a huge DBZ fan, so maybe it just caught me on a bad day. Good to know that others think the Tenchi episode was bad, and that it wasn't part of its initial run on Toonami.

Yes, but it was nothing special. Just the normal ending for Tom 3.0.
I'm not an expert but that Tenchi we saw was basically analogous to like Jaws 3 or something, where you had something really good at the start, then it got weird, then it got weirder, and then it got weird and shitty.
I'll just act like it doesn't exist, then.

The absurdity of it all. It was like DBZ except instead of power levels and new "techniques" it was levels of absurdity. It's like "Airplane!."

Attacks were flashbacks to realities that never existed.
Always works for me!

You have no idea...
Like someone else said, the whole thing is up on the live stream link.
It's not the same, man.
That was on last night. They're showing it again?
I was never a fan of Toonami.
I'm a mexican fellow, and for the most part, the shows that aired on the Latin American Toonami didn't attract me. I have no nostalgia whatsoever for any of the animes, nor TOM, nor the block in general.
Yet...From an outsider's perspective, from someone who comes completely fresh to the US Toonami, and most importantly, to the affection and memories it invokes on the GAFfers that were up all night...It was a beautiful feeling.
I stayed up all night with you guys. Even if I'm not longing for the days of Toonami, seeing your reactions, the emotions this unexpected programming awakened in you, it made me stay during the duration of the whole block, just to read about your collective tears of happiness (along with Tenchi's mind screw, heh).
I didn't even watch the shows; the stream wasn't available to my country at the moment. Now that I saw you embracing them with open arms, I'm sure to watch many of them now, when I didn't do it back then. But your comments, your feelings, that's what truly infused me with so much happiness...So much GAFfers reunited by a common memory of their childhoods/youth, thankful that they're given a chance to revisit good old times they hold so dear...
...It's a hell of a feeling to witness THAT, you know?
One of the best times I've ever had on GAF. Thank you, guys. =)

Outlaw Star's ending theme was the hardest I'm nostalgia'd in a long ass time

There are very few things GAF can (for the most part) collectivly agree on.
Toonami seems to always be one of them.
I didn't even have CN for a lot of the time Toonami was on, but I still got hooked on Lockdown when it was on the CW and when I was finally able to watch it on CN, I was amazed by it.

If they could get a hold of newer content. Anything. Something like the Tetsujin 28 remakes would be good. Maybe some Madbull.
You're basically being a crotchety old man right now, you realize that. "Back in my day we had REAL entertainment" etc.
Quality cartoons didn't begin and end with Toonami. Though it was certainly the best place to find them for a while.

Did that earlier.
And please, don't just put stuff like "OMG! BRING IT BACK!" please explain why you would like it back and give them some suggestions.

Oh, I wouldn't say that.
A long time ago, my father said this exact same thing to me when we were watching an episode of Batman, almost word for word.
Of course, he grew up on Hong Kong Phooey, Scooby-Doo, and Josie and the Pussycats in the early 70's.
