Cartoon Network UK - Continuity and Adverts - Christmas 2000 (3)

  • 8 years ago
Pinky and the Brain surprise all by claiming they’re going to take over the world tomorrow as the show comes to an end. After the credits, we’re told… oh, no… please… no… it can’t be true… Angela Anaconda is up next. (I swear, I didn’t mean to record this. Please spare my life.)

A promo for Cartoon Theatre ensues, and Rover Dangerfield is the movie. This promo in particular is the one that got me excited to see the movie. I guess I liked the sound of a dog being dropped into a watery grave, and didn’t expect to be greeted with a musical involving songs about not taking a piss on Christmas trees.

Then it’s an advert for the Galaxy Silk Collection, which looks as delicious as it sounds. The advert revolves around an extremely bored woman pretending that her chocolates are racing horses, rather than just eating them like she should. I doubt they even sell this product any more. You pretty much just get a Cadbury’s Milk Tray at Christmas and that’s it.

Cruella gets pissed and KFC push some Thunderbirds toys on us, right before a Tom and Jerry promo. It’s another one where they make a lovely beat out of their agonizing moments of pain, creating a peaceful melody that’s sure to put you to sleep.

After that is a promo for The Powerpuff Girls, where Blossom, Bubbles and Buttercup never seem to grasp the meaning of the term “exit”, and instead just end up smashing the ceiling into pieces. Pokey Oak’s repair budget must be through the roof. (Ha-ha-ha.)

The Cartoon Network logo shits itself with laughter before another Christmas bumper, followed by the utterly repulsive intro to Angela Anaconda. God, I hate this show. I mean, I really, really hate it, and I’m only including the intro just so you can share my pain.
