Boomerang has been overseas for some time now--the differences in the relaunch seem to be that the channel won't be commercial-free in the U.S. anymore and that contemporary series (originals or overseas acquisitions) will be added to the mix, which will probably piss off the hardcores who want to watch "The Roman Holidays" or "Goober and the Ghost Chasers" or the other more obscure H-B titles. However, one has to realize that "Dexter's Lab" and "PowerPuff Girls" are now 20 years old and that "classic TV" channels are going to have to add post-1980 programs to the mix. In the case of an animation channel, since the 90s were the decade of the revitalization of television animation, showing 90s titles is almost a given, especially for the target demo who watched them when they were first run.
