Hmm, we've never been able to get a good antenna setup in our condo, hopefully it comes to something like Tubi or whatever.

If it's going to come to a streaming service- it would probably be Philo or FRNDLY- It's a month away, so we will see soon enough.

Re: METV'S SUPER COLOSSAL CARTOON CHRISTMAS, Monday December 13 @8:00pm EST

This seems like the right thread to bump, considering the news that MeTV is launching a new Toons Channel on June 25th, and TVline has a post that reveals the initial schedule. It looks like some cool cartoons are going to be easy to watch all on one channel, such as Jonny Quest.

Kind-of exciting news and I will definitely be programming my DVR to record some series.

ETA: If a Mod is able to change the thread title, that would be great, and thank you in advance!

Even though he has an iPad, youtube, cable, and a couple streaming services available to him, my coworker's 7 year old likes to watch "Toon In with Me" in the morning before he goes to school.

I wish this was available via streaming so I can watch Captain Planet.

Re: Weigel launching OTA channel METV TOONS June 25th

I don't watch a hell of a lot OTA television these days, but I'll check this out once in awhile, once I figure out what subchannel it will be on locally (across the border from me in Buffalo, NY).

Will this be on the Samsung and LG streaming TV channels?

Re: Weigel launching OTA channel METV TOONS June 25th

We're in a condo and can't get good OTA signals in our unit, so we've used streaming for years. I hope some streaming service will pick this up also.

Re: Weigel launching OTA channel METV TOONS June 25th

I hope this airs on a streaming service like Pluto TV as we have never had any luck using OTA signals. For the Summer, I signed up for the Boomerang channel. Good grief, what a headache. It's like trying to pass a bill through Congress in getting it to work. Since I already paid for June, i'm going to keep it, but after that, it's gone!

This will air on Frndly TV & Philo. I hope they can come to a deal with YouTube TV. https://cordcuttersnews.com/frndly-t...ons-at-launch/

I hope so too. I was going to subscribe to the Frndly $7.99 plan until I found out you have to pay it annually which is around 96 dollars. If you could pay by the month, I would subscribe to it. I'm not playing that much up front when they have a lot of the same channels YouTube TV already has in its lineup.

No reason to expect that happening when the other MeTV channels aren't there.

Re: Weigel launching OTA channel METV TOONS June 25th

I'm finally able to get this channel over the air this morning. I did two different channel scans on my Sony tv and it showed up as 39.7 here in Kansas City. So far I'm impressed and watching Looney Tunes right now.

Re: Weigel launching OTA channel METV TOONS June 25th

From what I understand they have a pretty deep catalog of shows they can run on the channel. Supposedly almost anything before 2003 is fair game.

Re: Weigel launching OTA channel METV TOONS June 25th

My Mom cut the cord and I signed her up for Frndly so she can watch INSP and History. I've been watching METV Toons and I really like the channel so far.

You can pay for Frndly by the month. It just costs $2 more a month than paying for a year.

The 80s-90s TMNT cartoons are coming to MeTv Toons in 2025.
