It started as a mighty wave, but the Cartoon Network's action-anime programming block Toonami dwindled to nothing and then splashed harmlessly into the gutter. The Network finally put the Toonami block, which had played host to such classics as Gundam and Cowboy Bebop, out of its misery as of last Saturday. This coming Saturday will see the live-action Spider-Man movie instead, and the following week will be the broadcast premiere of the direct-to-DVD animated anthology Batman: Gotham Knight.
