IF you don't know this by know, then me be the first to tell you,
CN's Adult Swim showed a series called Ranger Smith and the cartoon featured on it was "Boo Boo Runs Wild" and too me it was distasteful.

The way it protrayed all 4 (yes I said 4) characters was asbused and just plain stuped.

Now if you haven't seen it, as a friendly juster, DON'T!

Believe it's not worth it.

But hey that's my opoion

God Bless.

So you agree with me on this, huh?

But what was reaction to it or did you ever see it.?

I haven't seen the episode you're speaking of, no. I have a dislike for shows that are dirty and offensive.

First of all, Adult Swim disgracing old Hanna-Barbera Characters is nothing new. The whole premise of Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law, Space Ghost Coast to Coast, the Brak Show, etc. is to disgrace old Hanna-Barberra characters. And what can I say? I like al of those shows!

Also, the cartoon "Boo Boo Runs Wild" isn't new either. It was originally created for Cartoon Network in 1999 by John Kricfalusi of "Ren & Stimpy" fame, and was aired for a very short time back then. I remembered it from back then but never really understood the whole premise of it, however I found it very refreshing to see it again on Adult Swim recently and I now understand all of the humor that was trying to be portrayed. After seeing it again recently I actually thought thiat this cartoon was very different and quite good, and I am actually glad to see on TV again after more than a half of a decade of it being off the air.

You can see a nice little write-up about "Boo Boo Runs Wild" on the IMDB website at: www.imdb.com/title/tt0259222/.
