I think most of all I would really love to see Sym-Bionic Titan back on air. The show deserves another run and Adult Swim had such praise for it before it premiered on CN last September. It has a good amount of action and has a much more mature feel than a lot of the other CN shows. It would seriously make a ton of people happy if Toonami could take in SBT.
I'm so glad it's returning nevertheless.
Viva la Titan~

I say Sym-Bionic Titan
It's perfect for Toonami
Awesome storyline, badass fight scenes, amazing animation...
Plus it's by the same creator of Samurai Jack!

When Toonami Returns, bring back Sym-Bionic Titan! At least air reruns, but whatever you do, please DO NOT AIR NARUTO!!! It was so ridiculously popular, it was the only getting ratings at the time, and it led us to TOM 4 the tank engine era and ultimately the end of Toonami back in 2008. Toonami should have some classic CN shows too!!

Sym-Bionic Titan would be kind of cool, actually.
The uncut 99-03 dub of DBZ (The one released on the out of print DVDs) would be cool to see.
I'm very, very resistant to the idea of seeing Panty and Stocking on Toonami for some reason. Something about seeing that on Toonami just feels...wrong. Also, for the love of God, NOT HAMTARO.

As much as I love sym-bionic titan and as much as I think it deserves a second run...
I just don't feel like it belongs on the new toonami. I think CN is perfectly capable of restoring the show on its own time, and it could be at an actually decent time. But I mean I gotta be honest, I'm not going to stay up until 12 every Saturday night for Symbionic titan. It's an excellent show, but I don't think it will suit toonami, especially considering if it does live up to the mature name fans want to impose on it.
Sym Bionic titan can even be on DC nation, I don't know. It's certainly capable of being restored on CartoonNetwork at a tolerable time.

No it can't. It needs to be based on a DC Comics title.

I’m sorry to say I’m against Sym-Biotic Titan. I just don’t believe its mature enough or silly enough to capture the teen and adult demographic.

I'm also against Sym-Biotic titan for toonami. Not a bad show... but not really toonami material. Definitely not AS material. (then again neither was peewee's playhouse, and they played that, maybye as some kind of stupid joke or something) (on [AS] not on toonami)

Cartoon Network is never going to give Sym-Bionic Titan the time of day. It probably wont even air on Boomerang. I don't see a problem with airing it at 5:30AM on Toonami but not in any important slots.

Within just the first three episodes, you have their neighbour Barb hitting on their Dad, General Modula snapping someone's neck, and Xeexi crawling inside people through their mouths to mentally overtake them. Plus later on there's the whole seduction/dancing scene with Kimmy & Octus that got a lot of talk for being too risque for Cartoon Network. And that on top of that's there's a TON of general joking and ridiculousness, especially with Lance, Ilana, and Octus attempting to adapt to their lives on Earth, and even the military and their idea of what high school kids are like, with the whole "Whazaaaaaap" bit. I can't see how this wouldn't fulfil both the maturity and humor levels that would hit it off brilliantly with that demographic, on top of having a really well-built storyline, and being beautifully visually directed (it's Genndy Tartakovsky after all).
While you're welcome to your opinion HyperionXIC, I have to say that there's a whole lot in the show that seems to directly contradict why you think it wouldn't work for Toonami.

Sym-bionic Titan is a great show...but ratings wise I don't know how well it would do. As for Naruto, I definately don't think it would do well late nights, especially since the brand is more synonomous as a kid's property in the U.S.
Some older Cartoon Network shows would be good, but I'd rather they give new anime and american action cartoons a chance over the older stuff. I think Black Dynamite would be a good fit for Toonami, maybe even The Boondocks season 4, The Venture Bros., and King Star King. But only if they expand the block to weekdays and/or all of saturday. Otherwise I'd rather have new and classic anime.

Do a commercial set to the booty quake and I'm sure SBT's ratings would be high enough to get another season or at least a few wrap-up specials.

As a sort of response to a post made by TheSketchor on another thread, here are some great action shows from Japan that I think would do relatively well-to great on Toonami.
Fate/Zero: Perhaps the anime in recent years I most want to see on TV. If promoted correctly, this series can do a lot to win the audience. The basic premise is interesting enough to hook in casual viewers with its concept. It's over-the-top fight scene's would win the teenager/young adult/action loving audience/, and the cast full of adults, interesting story, and character-driven plot would hook the adult and plot loving-crowd.
Jormungand: Probably has a better chance at being a success than Fate/Zero does. It's very much a mindless action anime, but it's a fun ride. It's the kind of show where you can just tune in and relax to all the gunslinging action and quirky characters (especially the lead).
