Nuno Markl and AT
CN PT's Facebook page has recognized Nuno Markl's fandom of AT but doesn't know about his rambling on how bad the songs are.
Addio, adieu, auf wiedersehen, goodbye, amore, amour, meine liebe, love of my life
The lengthy title is intentional, that's just part of José Cid's 1980 Portuguese ESC entry.
Today, an era ended in the United States. A long-standing tradition that lasted roughly five decades and - without standing in competition with cable TV - got it's own death by E/I.
E/I regulations meant that broadcast networks had to stop broadcasting conventional cartoons in favor of live-action shows, most of them belonging to Litton.
The block ended in an unceremonious way, probably because they just didn't care about it, not to mention the website which has been limited after the announcement.
NBC Kids and MiTelemundo still show cartoons, but they are all E/I.

The Jade Qilin's Stories
I can't make any heads or tails of the original title, but it's the new show on Cartoon City.

你也是！(You too!)
Is it me or is there a lot of people interested in Shanmao and Jimi (Bobcat and Kimmy) accessing my blog?
I have to watch it now.
I want to let you know that (快点告诉你 我用)
I drew a picture for you (你送的蜡笔)
Using the crayon you gave me. (画了幅画特快传递给你)
I just want to tell that you I miss you so much. (快点告诉你 我的十二分惦记)
It doesn't matter that (再远的路)
I'm far away from you. (没有什么关系)
My heart is with you. (我的心放在你那里)
My heart is with you. (我的心放在你那里)
Ah. It's Cartoon City. (诶。动画城。)

New Sabrina animated series coming to Disney Channel next month
Sabrina: Secrets of a Teenage Witch is coming to Disney Channel Portugal but, trust me, it's not what you're thinking. Have you read the title?
The show will premiere on September 15th at 08:45, repeated at 17:35. That's the second Hub Network show to air on DC PT: Littlest Pet Shop is the other one.

Zig Zag will suffer from some changes next week
Starting next week, Zig Zag's morning block will run for four hours, between 7 and 11, and the late afternoon block will run for three-and-a-half hours, between 17 and 20:30.
They will try and correct their summer schedule which is a result of the Tour de France. Last year's edition had such an impact which caused the channel's schedule to go awry.

No Cartoon City today
Unfortunately, there's no Cartoon City today due to a completely different schedule related to Thanksgiving: because when it's 15:15 (14:15 during DST) in Portugal, it's 22:15 in China.
Teen Titans on RTP 2? Again?
I feel devastated, now it seems that RTP 2 is the new Biggs (the new new Biggs will be CN PT). Wild Grinders for the 87th time is an example. But Teen Titans is a more extreme example: they're airing seasons 3 and 4, which are the seasons you can see on Biggs.
Seriously? Wasn't there an unbranded kids block on RTP 2 between 2006 and 2008 which aired shows like TT and HiHi Puffy AmiYumi? It eventually mutated into Kaboom then it was eventually forgotten.
Why not a CN block? It is viable.

More info on Bobcat and Kimmy
The show was produced by a company with a suspiciously-looking logo: a company called "SMJM". I did not understand it's meaning until a search last Monday which resulted in "Hunan Shanmao Cartoon".
If you said that it was suspiciously-looking, it's not a rip-off of Mickey Mouse's head. It's just Bobcat's head. Iris wipes have the hape of Bobcat's head appearing every few minutes. Bobcat's head can be seen on a TV screen.
And Bobcat and Kimmy is just the name given by CCTV 4's subtitle translator: the show's "official" (by Hunan Shanmao standards) name is still "Shanmao and Jimi".
The show commences with an announcer saying that this is a new season (made three years ago), "the stories just keep getting more and more exhilarating" and ends with "Bobcat and Kimmy. Fun for the whole family. Healthy and happy. We'll see you there.", which, after an intensive search, turns out to be a 108-episode series called "The Happy Family of Shanmao and Jimi" (《山猫和吉咪》之全家乐).
If anyone who works at CCTV 4's subtitling department and can read this, please confirm me that I put the names "Bobcat and Kimmy" on the net because of you.
Now let's go to the show itself. We do morning jog in the spring, we swim in the summer, we play ball games in the autumn and ski in the winter.
This show has 108 episodes, CCTV 4 airs it in groups of 4. Each episode is ca. 10 minutes long. This means that this can air for 27 days and never rerun. (You already know that Cartoon City is like that: they air one show, then they change it and old shows never rerun.)
There's something in the show that makes me laugh: not the characters but the subtitles and the sound effects. Especially the sound effects, you'll see why.
The show abusively uses HB sound effects and the like and most of those sound effects have nothing to do with the actions of the characters. What really shocked me is the fact that they were constantly using the Jetsons sound effect but I think that's over-abusive.
Has anyone else seen this show on CCTV 4 (Europe) in the past couple of weeks?

Bobcat and Kimmy
Forgot to put images of a Cartoon City show that I can't find it's Chinese name. I took them last Monday, later that day I found out that I was about to get CCTV 4, which has finally arrived to my provider.
Here they are:
Nickelodeon now available to NOS's Digital HD package
Starting today, more NOS subscribers will get Nickelodeon on the Digital HD package, to which I'm included. This will be a good change for me, and I can't upgrado to those cheap packages just to watch it.
Flash and Dash: correction
Turns out that there is no fourth season of Flash and Dash. The second season (from 2010) premiered instead.
They (at least) kept the Race Tin Flash and Dash S theme, the original version kept the theme from the first season.
The first episode of this season starts with footage from the last episode of the first season, which doesn't make any sense whatsoever.
Desabafo
Well met, it seems that my Facebook post which consisted of the Persian PnF intro was put on O Homem que Mordeu o Cão's Facebook page, but unfortunately it didn't go on the air this morning.
