It is our most common request from fans: Please bring back Saturday morning cartoons. You asked for it. We are thrilled to announce it!
MeTV proudly presents the weekend debut of Saturday Morning Cartoons on January 2, 2021. Starting every Saturday at 7AM | 6C, this three-hour "all cartoons, all the time" block is reminiscent of the Saturday morning broadcasts of yesteryear.
Get ready to start your weekend with your favorite characters, from Bugs to Taz. Each hour will present a collection of cartoons featuring Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies, Popeye and Friends, and Tom & Jerry.
These theatrical cartoon shorts came from the brilliant minds and pens of animation legends like Chuck Jones, Tex Avery, Max Fleischer, and William Hanna and Joseph Barbera. They remain as beautiful and hilarious as you remember.
Th-th-th-th-that's not all, folks! Stay tuned for more exciting news involving your favorite cartoon characters — as well as some new friends. Subscribe to our newsletter and watch for teasers on MeTV to learn more in the coming weeks!

And the poor effort continues, even on Saturday. Daffy Duck and the Dinosaur was schedule for today, instead a re-run of Ducking the Devil was shown. Not surprised @ the reaction Bill & Tooney are receiving. Just another part of what happens when bad decisions are made. AND, 30 Bugs cartoons out of 160+??? That's absolutely not a list of "The Best of Bugs". List all 166 and let the people vote. Don't claim to be airing the best Bugs cartoon unless ALL are considered by the voters. Shameless.

Cut out the bad comedy and squeeze in more cartoons. My 7 yo just said watching the hosts is what he has to pay to see the cartoon.

Send Bill and Tooney to the showers. Not entertaining.

How about showing what you have on the schedule? That would be a good start. 4 times so far, scheduled cartoons have been replaced with re-runs. Saturday is so much better than the M-F show.
Toons are sized better and no credit interruptions...beginning or end. Switch the Saturday show to M-F and send Bill & Tooney to Saturday.

Make that 5 now. The Heckling Hare was skipped today to air a repeat of The Dixie Fryer. Saturday continues to be way better than M-F, but at least make an effort to get your own schedule correct.

Weaklings. The woke mob would be all over metv for showing old non-edited cartoons. Gone With the Wind, Pepe, Speedy. Crazy how far these idiots have gone over the edge. Let's just go back to the old Egyptian times where we can scratch the previous generation right off the wall. Now that history doesn't exist, right? Sorry, not the way it works. Learn from the past, don't try to ignore it.

We are getting sick and tired of those Bill and Toony idiots that are taking up important cartoon time, We want MeTv to remove those jerks and their stupid skits and add MORE CARTOONS, If not, I will no longer TOON IN !!

Good idea, with the crummy TV programing on today it's a great plan.

Just show the cartoons, not the host, Toony or that annoying bimbo.

All folks who say that Toony and Bill are bad for the show are RIGHT!, their blabbering uses up very valuable cartoon time. METV should be embarrassed to keep those "hosts" on. Viewers don't need them.

metv can't seem to get it's own schedule correct. Where did Bingo Crosbyana go? Now they have 7 cartoons listed for Feb. 13. I'm sure the advertisers will be joyous about losing 7 minutes. They also switched Hot Cross Bunny for Case of the Missing Hare. Why? If you are going to list the cartoons to be shown, it should at least be accurate. Just have to wait and see what happens two weeks from now. Saturday is still way better than the M-F show.

I was having a really hard morning when I flipped the channel and there I just caught the Saturday morning cartoons and I loved them so much. It brought back some fond memories....I don’t get to watch the weekdays ones and from these other comments I’m glad I don’t. It would be nice to see the cartoons from the 90s and 80s as well like duck tales and chip n Dale’s rescue rangers. And other classics like the Archies. Also would love to see the Golden Girls again on your channel. I love your channel ahhh...simple times.

I think most of us enjoy the cartoons but know your audience, we’re older adults, we don’t need toony

I have been extremely curious as to why the cartoons need a host and who thought this was a good idea? I love the addition of the toons to the channel. I've been saying this since this classic station came on the scene. I said, I would give this format a chance and I have and I honestly do not see the value of any of the host. I was hoping that it would be a factual type host similar to Svengoolie, but all of the characters are just doing bad jokes, why? Can't the cartoons be curated without hosts, especially if there is not going to be any factual knowledge given about the making of shown toons? Not having host works very well with The Flintstones. Despite the unnecessary hosts, I'm still watching because, I'm really here for the eclectic mix of toons especially given what all we have endured.

Looks like more people agree.Lose the puppet and host. Is he some big wig in the company ? The guy not the puppet. I'd rather see My Three Sons and something else every morning and catch the weekend shows. Those are good.Just cartoons.
