As Cartoon Network has recently pulled the plug on this wonderful title to make way for the inferior "Fried Dynamite", I think it's time that we take a look back at the wonderful block that was Cartoon Network Fridays (2005-06).
Fridays had some great sketches and charming characters, such as Long Haul (the big-rig-driving bear puppet) and Whiskers (the talking orange kitten who names all different kinds of fruits).
I must say that the biggest highlight of Fridays would have to be Tara Sands. She is an extremely talented, funny, charming and pretty girl, and I thought she made the block even better when she took over Nzinga Blake's position as co-host opposite Tommy Snider.
My only gripe about Fridays, and the one reason why I didn't give it a perfect 10/10 score, is that during 2006 their musical guests consisted mainly of talentless urban/R&B/rap/hip-hop acts such as Chris Brown, Sammie and Jibbs. There are far better pop/rock acts such as Andrew W.K., Meg & Dia or Aly & AJ who better deserved a guest spot.
Poor selection for featured musical guests notwithstanding, I thought Fridays was a great and underrated live-action feature on Cartoon Network. The people at CN have got to be ignorant to have given it the axe, and Tara Sands is far too talented a TV Personality/Actress to be thrown away the way CN did.
In a nutshell, Fridays was awesome, and I hope that "Fried Dynamite" bombs and that Tara Sands gets another good TV hosting gig soon.
