Cartoon Network to air in Arabic | |
2010-07-13 | |
Channel hopes to reach 35 million homes in Middle East and Africa. Some shows that will become available in Arabic include Ben 10, Powerpuff Girls, Dexter’s Laboratory, Samurai Jack and Foster’s Home for Imaginary Friends. Daoud Kuttab, director-general of the Community Media Network in Amman and Ramallah said that while there are difficulties with Arabic dubbing, the channel should still be a hit. “I think people will watch it,” said Kuttab. “The problem they will have is something all studios have with the classical Arabic, it sounds as if you were speaking [English] from the sixteenth century.”

#2 Tough call; is "TP for my Bunghole" enough of a positive? |

#1 There is no way Muslim Mullahs are going to tolerate this. Not just the Powerpuff Girls, but anthropomorphic animals, djinn-like monsters and ghosts, science and Deedee. It kind of boggles the mind about the animation they should see, like Moral Orel, the Real Ghostbusters, Invader Zim, Ren and Stimpy, Robot Chicken, South Park, The Simpsons, and the new Batman, Batman Beyond, and Superman series. That would totally change the Muslim world in a single generation. Nobody let them see Beavis and Butthead, however. |
