Sonic Boom TV Ratings – Season 2 Weeks 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 & 15

19 Comments

1. Hey I know! Let’s shove the show into a channel that almost nobody has access to! That’ll be sure to get us even more ratings and money while we give Teen Titans go even MORE marathons for every day of the week! WE CARTOON NETWORK R SMART! XP

   1. Tell me about it

2. Man, you gotta be kidding me. These ratings are sad for a show of this caliber. I’m decently sure I’ve said before that season 2 is blowing season one out of the water, and it continues to do that, but with these CRAPPY RATINGS. THIS IS NO GUD. Geez.

3. Geez, these ratings continue to be a lowpoint in season 2. This isn’t good. Cartoon Network seem to have already stopped airing the cartoon on their main channel. :/

4. #WillSonicBoomSufferTheSameFateAsSonicSatAMWithAnAgonizingSecondSeasonCliffhanger

   1. Since it’s not a show with an overarching plot, what kind of cliffhanger would it possibly want to end a season on?

      1. Well considering they added in Shadow, and said they wanted to add in other characters, it’d more end with “Oh hey, here’s an appearence by this character for one episode doing things” like what we got with Shadow’s but then never get anything else for said character.
         Really, has Shadow even DONE anything in Season 2 yet? His inclusion feels so sudden and superfluous if you will. It just feels like it was done just because “HUR DUR SHADOW IS POPULAR” but without any real thought to adding him in and making him fit. But then again, that’s also how it happened in Rise of Lyric so….

         1. “Well considering they added in Shadow, and said they wanted to add in other characters”

            Exactly. They wanted to add them in. They never said they will. And to be fair, they have been adding in other characters anyway. Granted, it’s not the characters we know from the main series universe, but they are more characters being added.

            “Really, has Shadow even DONE anything in Season 2 yet? His inclusion feels so sudden and superfluous if you will. It just feels like it was done just because “HUR DUR SHADOW IS POPULAR” but without any real thought to adding him in and making him fit.” Why does he have to do something? This isn’t main series Shadow, where he has a significant character background and development. Sonic Boom’s not about giant epic plots. Shadow’s inclusion is sudden and superfluous because, well, there’s not much incentive for him to show up. In main series Sonic he has his own motives for his actions such as Maria, saving Omega, assisting with Rouge, and/or moving on from his past, so he shows up more often and with more build up, typically doing things on his own. In Sonic Boom, he’s merely a Sonic hater. Nothing more than that, so he only shows up when provoked. Main series Shadow shows up on his own, Boom Shadow shows up due to the heroes. The former has much more motivation in getting involved with the plot than the latter, so that’s why you don’t see the latter often. It may seem sudden, but that’s what Shadow is like in Boom.

            Shadow kind of fits, but only because of characters like Amy, who tend to be less goofy and more mature about things. Sonic Boom has that. If that weren’t the case, Shadow wouldn’t fit at all. While comedy is the main focus of the show, they do add a layer of depth to it too. It’s not entirely fun and games with this show. And that’s just enough for Shadow’s personality to squeeze in.

5. SEGA should just move the Sonic Boom TV show to Disney XD since Cartoon Network is practically killing that show by putting it on Boomerang…

   1. I don’t even know what the complaint is. The show is very bland and boring for a Sonic series that focuses on nothing relevant. It’s just another Teen Titans Go where they need to make fun of the original and make the characters look like complete fools. If it weren’t for Sonic characters I bet this concept wouldn’t appeal to you.

      1. That’s your opinion of the show
         A lot of people like the show, but almost no one is watching it because it’s getting heavily mistreated by Cartoon Network
         Even if you don’t like the Sonic Boom TV show, you have to admit that Cartoon Network treats it very poorly for no reason

      2. “I don’t even know what the complaint is.”

         You were just told what the complaint is. I even wrote an entire article explaining that complaint last month. How much clearer do people need to be?

         “It’s just another Teen Titans Go where they need to make fun of the original”

         What’s the “original”? Classic Sonic games? Modern Sonic titles? Sonic from Sonic X, or AoSTH? More context would be needed here. And even so, they don’t really make fun of the main series Sonic or other Sonic cartoons often, in fact very rarely.

         “and make the characters look like complete fools.”

         How? I can see Knuckles to a degree, but no one else is that “foolish”.

         “If it weren’t for Sonic characters I bet this concept wouldn’t appeal to you.”

         Do you pay any attention to anything people who like the show have said? Or are you this close-minded? Because if you had been paying attention, people have given clear explanations on why they like the show. Many times. They think it’s funny and well written. It has nothing to do with the fact there are Sonic characters. Obviously, you don’t, but that doesn’t mean that others will think the same way. This mentality that people who like this show are blind fanboys who love everything that Sonic shows up in needs to stop.

         1. SSF1991 – The only thing you need to be more clear of is to increase your expectations for the Sonic franchise. Yes, the original source from the main franchise, hell even Sonic X followed the proper formula and added it’s own plots and still gave fans the satisfaction that it came straight from a Sonic game for the most part. What does Boom have to offer in terms of action, dramatic oriented concept? Nothing! Plots such as getting awards, pets, boy bands, on top of bad jokes, annoying characters that don’t look like they even belong in the Sonic universe like the mayor, Dave The Intern, those frog creatures, seriously must I go on? Seriously this is the same writing people hate that are in other Cartoons that Sonic fans hate, but is in Boom that people love. Again, people are just impressed with those Sonic characters and since it’s them it automatically makes it good, HYPOCRITES! Making the characters look like fools, yes. Take Sonic for instance, cocky, fast, daring, serious, thrilling. What is he in Boom? Annoying and boring. As for Tails, his traits are upcoming hero, mechanical genius sweet natured and looks up to Sonic. What is he in Boom? A grumpy inventor who’s always irritated. Let’s list off the rest while I’m at it. Amy an over protective mother, Knuckles no comment and Sticks completely useless and annoying. Hmm, no wonder why Sonic Boom fails to sell games, gets low ratings and attract the general Sonic fanbase. I won’t say you’re wrong about it being moved to Boomerang that it might have killed some of it’s audience, but Boom is generally liked enough to keep it going! Especially since it basically trying to over shadow the main franchise and irritating people who expect the franchise to be as good as it was before.

            Hope this helps!

            1. “SSF1991 – The only thing you need to be more clear of is to increase your expectations for the Sonic franchise.”

               What “expectations”? That I think the same way you do? Because that’s the vibe I’m getting from you.

               “even Sonic X followed the proper formula and added it’s own plots and still gave fans the satisfaction that it came straight from a Sonic game for the most part.”

               Because Sonic X wasn’t a parallel universe separate from the main series.

               “What does Boom have to offer in terms of action, dramatic oriented concept?”

               A lot. Especially in season two.

               “Plots such as getting awards, pets, boy bands”

               Sitcoms tend to have those kind of plots.

               “annoying characters that don’t look like they even belong in the Sonic universe”

               Of course they don’t. Because this isn’t meant to be the usual Sonic lore.

               “Again, people are just impressed with those Sonic characters and since it’s them it automatically makes it good, HYPOCRITES1”

               Yet another indicator to me that you have not been paying attention to people’s cases for liking the show.

               “Hmm, no wonder why Sonic Boom fails to sell games, gets low ratings and attract the general Sonic fanbase.”

               And I’ve already made an article on the low ratings. But let’s continue with the “confirmation bias”. And it has attracted the general Sonic fanbase.

               “Boom is generally liked enough to keep it going”

               Yes, but when you move the show to a network that does not have a large audience reach, it doesn’t matter who watches or hates the show. It can’t get the audience it used to.

               “Especially since it basically trying to over shadow the main franchise”

               1. The branch hasn’t been mentioned in months. Outside of a weekly preview of an upcoming episode from the show.
               2. We’re not even getting any Boom games this year.
               3. The comics are gone.

               Yeah. It’s not taking over.

6. Where’d you pull those numbers from if you don’t mind me asking

7. Ah the dates are hyperlinks to an odd looking site. They legit?

   1. Yes, the site is legitimate. It’s official.

8. As much as I think this show is bland and boring even with the new season, CN still proves how poorly it manages anything that isn’t TTGo! and shoves everything else to the side, even reboot projects that they forced like Powerpuff Girls and Ben 10 have been shoved to Boomerang as far as I know.
