Cartoon Network expands programming Sked; Thanksgiving Specials also on the Way
If you live anywhere North of the Mason-Dixon Line in the United States, then you know that it’s only going to get colder over the next few months although I did read some recently on CNN, I believe, where there was a US map showing that Florida was going to be completely underwater and that the North Eastern US was going to turn into one big beach, all at the fault of global warming. I actually think this all sounds like a great idea, but until then we have TV to help keep us warm indoors and Cartoon Network wants to help with that.
For starters, Cartoon Network has a whole bunch of Thanksgiving specials on the way for Regular Show and the Annoying Orange plus they’ve got the final chapter of Star Wars: The Yoda Chronicles airing in a few weeks as well. Here’s a bunch of synopses for all of the specials:
Wednesday, November 20 at 8:00 p.m. (ET, PT)
- Annoying Orange: “Thanksfornothing Day” – The fruits feel they have nothing to be thankful for after the calamity that happened years ago at Plymouth Wok!
Monday, November 25 at 7:30 p.m. (ET, PT) *Half Hour*
- Regular Show: “The Thanksgiving Special” – The park guys need to get Thanksgiving dinner for their families to save Thanksgiving.* Guest Starring: Terry Crews as Stettman and Chord Overstreet as Dust B*
LEGO® Star Wars™ THE YODA CHRONICLES: “ATTACK OF THE JEDI”
Wednesday, November 27 beginning at 7:00 p.m. (ET, PT) and Premiere of “Attack of the Jedi” at 8:00 p.m. (ET, PT)
Tune in to LEGO® Star Wars™ The Yoda Chronicles specials 1 and 2 all leading up to the premiere of the third special, “Attack of the Jedi.” Set in the prequel Star Wars era, The Yoda Chronicles features the one and only Yoda, the Jedi Master who has seen it all, done it all and taught generations of Jedi Knights. With help from a fresh class of Padawans, Yoda leads the Jedi in a desperate fight to stop Darth Sidious and his minions from creating a new super-weapon that could crush the Republic and win the war for the forces of evil.
- LEGO® Star Wars™ The Yoda Chronicles: “Attack of the Jedi” – Obi-Wan discovers that several major Sith lords and their apprentices are gathered at the planet of Mustafar. The Jedi must hurry to Mustafar to destroy the Sith but it’s a trap and the Republic fleet is destroyed. Yoda, Anakin and the Padawans travel to Endor to find JEK. All hope now rests on JEK to come to the rescue.
If that wasn’t enough…there’s MORE! Starting tonight on Cartoon Network and continuing through the end of the year, CN programming will continue until 10pm EST which is when Adult Swim takes over. Normally, Cartoon Network cuts off at 9pm EST, leading to Adult Swim programming. That means one more hour of your favorite Cartoon Network programming like Regular Show, Steven Universe, and Uncle Grandpa! Cartoon Network has a trailer detailing all of the happenings here.
Check back in later today for a bunch of Cartoon Network previews for new episodes airing tonight starting @ 7:30pm EST with an all-new Regular Show.
"There are also other characters that come and go (also owned by the Warner Bros. Discovery conglomerate media company)."
Huh. Is that just referring to other characters from the show itself, or is this implying that the new season is going to have cameos from other WBD IPs
