Exactly, the map is unrecognisable & they can forget showing Tom & Jerry ....

Buhuhuhu, why did you bring that up. The loss still hurts. I miss the screenings of Tom&Jerry I always liked watching them.
I think when they stopped screening that a part of Swiss short haul experience died (as did a small part of me).

it’s a forum

Completely agree LX ought to continue showing Tom & Jerry but it’s not going to be doable on the CS aircraft

Well, I guess they could, because they also show the map and do not seem to care if it's worthwhile.

I think their idea was that since there are no more headphone jacks in the seats and therefore no more headphone are distributed, it wouldn't make sense to show a movie without sound

You don’t need sound to understand a Tom & Jerry cartoon, unless maybe it’s being shown on an LX configured CS

Isn't Tom & Jerry gone since 2012? Only to be replaced by something stupid: Stunt Comedy[playing on A32S overhead IFE]...what is LX thinking?

I think I defintely saw it once or twice after 2012...I'm pretty sure as I can remember them quite clearly. The other times there was this really unfunny hidden camera stuff. ugh! I guess it depends on the AC and destination.
But I never saw any entertainment show on the screens again after they changed the cabin and removed the headphone jacks. Only Roadrunner on Edelweiss. I only just realized that a few weeks ago. Shame.

I flew ZRH - CPH last Wednesday, and they definitely showed Tom and Jerry. Was an A320 though.
But I haven't seen the 2 for quite some time...

Yes, was fairly sure that I saw them on an A320 recently
