For those of you that have toon disney, on saturday and sunday they use to have Dragon Booster on at 11:30 am. Now for the past couple of weekends I check to see if its on and its not! This is very bad. At least Dragon Booster still airs repeats three days a week on toon disney, jetix. On Tue., Wed. and Thur Dragon Booster is still on at 9:00 pm.
Also this week they are showing "The Defiant" and the rest of the episodes in order. That means if you missed the last couple of episodes or the season finale you can catch them. Just remember, Tuesday January 30 they will show "The Defiant" then the other episodes will appear in order on the other days.

That's because they moved it earlier in the morning. DB still airs weekends, just earlier. Check your TV guide for the new time.

4:30!!!! That's insane, ah well, I shall just have to throw a sleep over so I can watch it.

Forget the weekends. I just watch it EVERY tue. wed. and thur. at 9:00pm. Also you know what episode will be on. For example tomarrow night is going to be "Slithercorps" because it runs in order. And after "Damaged Goods" it will start up from the beginng again.

It's probably due to time zones and whether you receive Toon Disney on cable or satellite. Makes it really confusing. For example, if you're on satellite like me and live on the west coast, then everything is three hours earlier relative to the east coast due to the time difference. But if I had cable service, then it wouldn't be three hours earlier.
I'm on vacation right now, but I'll check the times in the satellite guide when I get home and update dragon-city.org as need be.

Look forward to your updates Furox. The show is on at 7:30am for me cause I live on the east coast of the united states.

Well, it was bound to happen sooner or later: Toon Disney has cut back on the schedule for Dragon Booster. Starting this week, they're no longer airing episodes during weekdays. It's now weekends only. Episodes air Saturday and Sunday at 7:30am Eastern time with a re-run of the same episode at 2:00am. The time will vary depending on whether you're on cable or satellite, and which time zone you're in, so check your local listing.
While this is less than ideal news, I still think there's a chance that DB Academy could be made, possibly showing on another network. Toon Disney has been re-running the season 1 episodes for over two years now (and still are on weekends), so you'd expect them to scale back the re-runs eventually. Season 1 has probably been aired like 50 times or more by now, so it definitely got a lot of mileage. The fact that they've been re-running them for this long means the show does have a worthwhile audience for them or they would have dropped the show long ago.
Still, it wouldn't hurt to write Toon Disney and let them know you want more.

Major bummer. Good to hear that they'll be broadcasting the defiant though. I've only seen that one on youtube.

At laest it's still on. CBC hasn't shown DB at all for two weeks. And it's not coming up on their scheduals... :( I think they might've simply stopped showing it.

I was very frustreated that they show it at 4:30 in the morning but then I came up with an answer. Set the television to record it. Every eppisode that I really like I record. If I dont really like it I record it and after I erase it. Well......It works.
