Cartoon Network adds live-action series

Featured Replies

Cartoon Network has picked up its first two original scripted live-action series: "Tower Prep" and "Unnatural History." The cable network has ordered 13 episodes of each hour-long show, with production slated to begin in January.

[/size] Cartoon Network's transition from all-animated fare to a new emphasis on live-action series and movies was front and center during its "upfront" presentation to advertisers in March, when "Tower Prep" (then called "Prepped") and "History" were announced as the network's first live-action scripted pilots.

NOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! Its the beginning of the end!

This is how Viacom ruined MTV... then VH1... then MTV2!

Please don't watch these programs! I need my daily dose of cartoons!

It's not Cartoon Network if there's live action. Idiots.

Action thriller "Tower Prep" centers on a rebellious teen (Drew Van Acker) who is trapped at a mysterious prep school for students with "unique potential." Action mystery "History" centers on a high school student (Kevin G. Schmidt) with exceptional skills acquired through years of globe-trotting with his anthropologist parents. He and his smooth-talking cousin (Jordan Gavaris) find themselves wrapped up in mysteries revolving around the national museum.

Wow, in addition to being live action, each show's premises sounds like total crap! Good job Cartoon Network!

I just hope Adult Swim gets its own designated channel soon.
