No knock on his "good friend" Jeff Bewkes -- or on Superman -- but Ted Turner wishes that he were running Time Warner so that he could make some changes at Cartoon Network and CNN, the cable news channel he founded 29 years ago.
.....
As for Cartoon Network, Turner tells anchor Betty Liu, "If I had control of it, I'd put 'Captain Planet' on at a top time period so that kids would see the environmental superhero instead of just Superman."
 
Ted Turner.... what an old fart.
 
Cap Planet is out of date...

But, outside of that, I love to see Ted Turner at least run CartoonNetwork again. It's gone to **** now. Keep Adult Swim in it's timeslot, but revamp the other stuff.
 
"If I had control of it, I'd put 'Captain Planet' on at a top time period so that kids would see the environmental superhero instead of just Superman."

I wish CN was still showing Superman and/or JLU.
 
He wants to remake Captian Planet or rerun the old shows? The old shows are classic but they are sort of dated.

Other than Adult Swim and maybe 2-3 shows, Cartoon Network is ****. That old stuff would be a lot better.
 
I wish I could order boomerang on it's own but I have to order like a dozen different stupid channels. :(
 
Both of them really need a change. CNN does not do enough real reporting, way too much fluff without focusing on any important issues or doing enough research and Cartoon Network hasn't been good in years since cartoon cartoons. It should focus much more on smarter cartoons with better quality writing and ideas which will still appeal to all ages, ie Dexter's lab as opposed to just a marketing network.
