Cartoon Network Temporarily Returns To Dish Network
The unfolding story of Dish Network and Cartoon Network continues. This time, however, it’s not so sour. Customers of Dish Network will be seeing the channel currently airing the Sonic Boom cartoon return very soon, if not already by this time. There’s just one catch. Consumerist reports that the return isn’t permanent:
It’s a temporary peace at best, as the end of the blackout doesn’t mean that the two parties have reached a deal. Instead, Dish and Turner have agreed to temporarily extend their previous agreement while they continue to hash out new terms.
This means that CNN, Cartoon Network, Adult Swim, truTV, TCM, HLN, CNN en Espanol and Boomerang are coming back to Dish subscribers’ screens, and that rumored potential blackouts of Turner-owned TBS and TNT are off the table.
Whether things will get permanent at some point remains to be seen. What is also questionable at this time: how this will impact tomorrow’s newest episodes of Sonic Boom.

I’m glad Cartoon Network is back on Dish, but Hopefully they can make a deal with Turner before it goes out again!
I can finally watch Sonic Boom on the TV instead of relying on the internet to watch the episodes.
They were uploaded to Youtube and I got to watch them there, but they were taken down a day later so there was no way of re-watching if I really wanted to.
*cough*BitTorrent*cough*
What? I didn’t say anything! All I did was cough, officer!
??? Ok whatever dude I won’t stop you.
The point is I got to watch the episodes on Youtube before they were taken down and that’s all that matters to me.
But the real question is How long will this temporary agreement last before Cartoon Network blacks out again?
And there I thought I was making a semi-serious suggestion in a humourous manner… I guess not.
Now, don’t you be looking at me, either. 🙂 I’m just an innocent bystander who happens to read the comments section here and can’t help if someone posts something I shouldn’t be seeing. *Stands in front of a sign (or comment) pointing (or linked) to “The Little House of Amy Rose” (written in Spanish)*
Right… OK… (with a large dose of skepticism)

Don’t take offense to it.
If it was a joke you were trying to make I’m afraid I’m the wrong person to tell a joke to because I don’t get your joke, I never used Torrents and don’t plan to.
I wasn’t actually referring to torrents. It is a direct download. Either way, I don’t and never will use torrents or direct downloads for purchasable content. I (or my family) own every last one of my thousands of movies and TV series on DVD and Blu-ray. When the first season of Boom is finally released as a box set, I certainly will buy it.
The comment I was referring to in is another article.
??? whatever dude I won’t stop you.
my reply comments won’t appear for some reason.
don’t know why
It was in the spam folder. You should be able to see it now. =)
Thank you, but I don’t know why it would be spam.
The spam filter’s a little over-zealous 😉
We get a LOT of spam comments so the spam filter works overtime very often. I guess that’s enough for it to mistakenly mark some comments as spam when they’re perfectly fine.
Well that’s good
Even WITH access to Cartoon Network, I’ve found myself watching Sonic Boom on the Internet instead. I feel the internet has less annoying advertisements.
There is no way I’m getting up at 7AM on a Saturday. Nuh-uh. Nope.
Well, it’s a start I guess… 😐

For once in my life I’m glad I have crapcast instead…
Oh yes we would be able to watch it if they would show it more than one goddamn day a week! I just went through the coming week to find the episodes to record and it’s not even on until Saturday. What, no reruns throughout the week? Cartoon Network wants the show to fail so they can keep airing their other crap (Lego crap, that ridiculous Uncle Grampa and Clarence, nearly all of the other shows they have) instead of giving Boom a fighting chance.
It’s so stupid. Sorry about my rant.
Yeah, agreed. It only reruns super early on Sunday. Maybe take out a slot for TTG or Adventure Time and put Sonic Boom in… At least give it a fighting chance. 😛
