    I urge every body to checkout Samuari Jack on TG4 (dont worry, its in English) 5:10 on Saterday. The fight sceens are unbeliveable (5 - 10 mins long). The plots are simple and solid,There's long sections with no dialog. the backgrounds look like old Japanese paintings. And Jack him self is the coolest dude on TV. Super Duper!

    I like it too..... great artwork and music. Stories are strong and varied, and its laugh-out-loud funny at times. And its different.

    Its on every day on CNX (Sky Digital)

    Quite possibly. It's excellent. The style is very different, and I've seen some really great eps of it so far (on CNX).

    On a side-note. Anyone seen Aqua Teen Hunger Force on CNX aswell (Sundays)? Absolutely trippy.

    Ooooh, around half 6 or 7 I think. I get the feeling it's just after I get home from work, so that'd be about right :)

    It is damn good. That and Invader Zim would probably be my favourite two american cartoons. But they're not nearly as good as the best anime ats. Ph33r FLCL, Fruits Basket and Escaflowne.

    Ah what an excellent cartoon. I love the way there are whole sections with no dialogue, makes the cartoon different :)
