Cartoon Network Cancelled This Show For Being Too Mature lol (Infinity Train Book 4)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 сен 2024
- The reason Cartoon Network cancelled HBO Max's Infinity Train has been clarified after the release of Book 4 - and it's because higher ups felt Book 5 lacked an entry for younger viewers, despite the show appealing to all ages. Infinity Train was cancelled for being too mature. With the final season available and time to digest everything, let's talk about why this is a horrible decision, and why Infinity Train deserves an ending.

Kids nowadays watch anime like Demon Slayer and Attack On Titian which have more blood and gore than your average R-rated American movie.
Not to mention themes of death and humanity explored in the shows
Demon Slayer is a hell of a lot deeper than this show. This is what people in California THINK is deep. But it's just typical wankery.
And don't forget the anime that delves into psychological horror and shows a ton and I mean a ton of Trauma for the characters both physical and mental.
@@Alondro77 fun fact: demon slayer has a movie called infinity train
I mean you didnt lie I have a brother whgo is like ten and he watched AOT which is really dark
It's stupid how Infinity Train got cancelled because it's too mature, there were LOTS of classic CN shows that had dark/serious tones Teen Titans, Sym Bionic Titan, Courage The Cowardly Dog, Adventure Time, Regular Show, The Grim Adventures Of Billy and Mandy, KND, ect.
I mean..... I can agree with them on one point and one point only. Simon's Demise. Was it cool? Yes, but imagine you're a five year old who accidentally sees that
@@dragonheart1236 I would've been perfectly okay watching that at 5 years old.
@@tiffanyandrade2705 well good for you. But not every five year old is the same.
@@dragonheart1236 my parents didn’t let me watch cartoon network at 5. I had to wait until i was about 8. If a show is too mature for a small child, the parent should change the channel. The channel shouldn’t cancel the show.
@@elokin300 I never said they should cancel the show. I just said, in that one particular instance of 5 seconds, I agree that the show was a bit too mature of it's intended audience.
As if Cartoon Network wasn’t the studio that also had Batman: The Animated Series that won multiple awards because of its maturity...
Yes! Love that show.
it was fox kids network that owned batman the animated series
Fox kids and WB kids owned that show dude
@@kingdavidl3183 yeah I know it wasn't made straight out of CN but they did have it air and is still considered one of their cartoons
Different times man. Different times
If Cartoon Network is too stupid to understand how big infinity train is then I feel bad for them because they barely got a leg to stand on as it is.
Preach.
Man. What happened to TV networks?
Mature cartoons are what shaped us to who we are today. It helped us grow. If anything it got us ready for the real world. The fun silly and goofy cartoons of today are just going to turn kids brains into mush.
It’s the definition of mind numbing cartoons
Exactly!!! They want to BRAINWASH THEM!!!
Preach it brother
Bruh right
So fun isn’t allowed in cartoons anymore?
Yeah
I can't express the amount of pain I feel when I hear someone say "animation is made for kids."
I mean, look at family guy, American dad etc. Those are animations. Are they for kids? At this point ppl can't even say that animation is just for kids anymore
Animation is for kids as i have a cartoon character as my profile and name
@@watterson.darwin that does
Not prove your point
@@scamperpamper6372 it was a joke and how exactly did you not understand if i was serious itd be a contradiction as my account basically is darwin watterson from gumball A CARTOON ANIMATED SERIES do you understand now child
@@watterson.darwin you can never tell if ppl are being serious..
. Ive seen some who are this way legit
Animations is not only for children. It's not a genre meant for kids, it's a medium meant for storytelling.
This show is amazingly filled with potential. As long as it has stories to tell, they can stretch this concept and franchise as long as they want. With said stories, they are also able to branch out it's audience to a much older demographic.
It's heartbreaking that they don't see that potential.
So tru, all of the good shows nowadays r mostly from Netflix
@@nerizepansit1032 Which begs the question, why didn't Netflix come in and swipe up/save Infinity Train, I'll never subscribe to HBO Max now, Disney+/Netflix are still the top 2.
oh cartoon network does see the potential they just don't care because they only care about making shows that will make them the most money
@@jdawson7877 goddamnit, that's worse! I can't blame them though, yeah yeah it's a business, but it still sucks.
@@zacharyyamashita8554 prolly becuz it is already a cartoon network property. If u see the pilot, it already has CN logo on it; which means it is already claimed by cartoon network.
Even though Owen Denis created the show, it still is a CN property. It'll take a lot of effort if they want to transfer it to Netflix(if that is possible) , so yeah that's about it.
Book 3 had me in tears with Hazel saying goodbye to Tuba (the rock) and her saying things like "I'll protect you, I'll be strong like Tuba" it really showed more emotion than anything else I've seen, even Steven Universe didn't hit as hard as book 3
I don't think steven universe is a good example of a cartoon that hits hard, that show was only good for like only 2 seasons.
THEY DID NOT JUST CANCEL THE SHOW AND LEFT AMELIA’S STORYLINE UNFINISHED
They Unfortunately did what a joke....
The 5th season would be about her 😭
@@Louis-kw6yk Did Owen Dennis confirm that?? I didn't know and now I'm even more salty
Book 5 was going to be planned as an origin movie but CN made a super dumb decision all because it didn’t have a “child entry”
@@Mimikyuzzz well, I saw some tweets that Owen said that
CN:
'Make us more mature shows!'
CN:
'We misspoke, we make preschool shows now.'
Why are you saying their making preschool shows?
@@barrettbirks1058 Have you seen some of the recent shows on cartoon network? A bunch of them look like they were made for pre-teens.
@@karma1507 aren't all children shows made for preteens?
@@barrettbirks1058 literally total drama Rama it’s feels like a preschool show
@@barrettbirks1058 A new pre-school block for Cartoon Network called “Cartoonito” got announced a while ago, so I guess that’s why.
Cartoon network is too used to stupid comedy shows that just waste time rather than narrative stories that actually make you feel something like infinity train, Steve universe etc.
What’s wrong with comedy? Look at Gumball!
@@mushroomfusion245 its different
@@mushroomfusion245 That show can slide because it’s actually funny not blind funny and stupid.
@@mushroomfusion245 That's a different type of comedy, Gumball is way better than TTG when talking abt comedy. It's irony, critic and sarcasm is what makes Gumball so special to me. Also as a guy said it's not "blind funny".
@@mushroomfusion245 Gumball is a mix of surreal comedy and satire to make it more hilarious and witty, Adventure Time used surreal comedy for the laughs and disturbance, and TTG is basically just juvenile humor, Kafka comedy, and occasionally dark comedy that gives us a sense of confusion.
There are different types of comedy out there. There's nothing wrong with comedy as a genre (which for some reasons, it's nothing new) but I think you're right that juvenile humor is the most offensive thing in the cartoon community.
The fan base has been stronger than ever since the show has announced its cancellation.
This show (and the fan base) has fought tooth and nail to be where it is now, to have it cancelled now would just be a punch in the face.
Infinity Train deserves its 8 seasons!
ABSOLUTELY!!!
The only thing “too dark” will be my screen whenever a CN show comes on.
LOL good one
@@happymolecule8894 Thanks.
Underrated comment
Goddamn. I just imagined this joke kicking the balls of a CEO from Cartoon Network.
My screen wouldn't be dark. It would just be on another channel. Or Netflix.
Cartoon Network: Infinity Train is too dark and mature for kids
Also Cartoon Network: We have Samurai Jack, Sym-Biotic Titans, Regular Show, Adventure Time, Steven Universe, Courage the Cowardly Dog, the Ben 10 franchise(except the 2017 reboot), PowerPuff Girls, The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy, Codename Kids Next Door, Total Drama, and Over the Garden Wall
Yes!!!! One thing that made me really angry is that Infinity Train talks about subjects that were talked about a LOT in Steven Universe (even to the point where, if they used this on every show, SUF would have been cancelled like that), it's basically just hypocritical
CN again: Powerpuff girls 2016 is great
Courage the cowardly dog made me have nightmares
Don't forget Teen Titans which did the Terra storyline in Season 2 and then the flipping Terror of Trigon arc in Season 4. That show went VERY dark at times. Remember that time when Raven almost killed Doctor Light, or at least would have rendered him permanently insane, by giving into her demonic side and dragging him into a dimension of darkness that drives people mad like something out of Lovecraft?
@@goodyfresh741 True, but Teen Titans is a DC property series, not a Cartoon Network original. I was only mentioning the shows that were made by the actual Cartoon Network studio like Dexter’s Lab, My Gym Partner’s a Monkey, Ben 10, or Gumball, and not the ones that were made by other animated studios like WB animation studios or Teletoons with shows like Johnny Test, Total Drama, and Teen Titans Go!
Every show on Cartoon Network gets cancelled for being too good which is so unfair no other show gets the spotlight on mostly of Teen titan go it’s Kinda getting least, the original one was better the lore,plot,storyline,theme, and backstory. Cartoon Network needs to stop canceling good shows and start accepting new ones
While I don't agree about Teen Titans Go being a bad show I think the show is okay I do agree it has taken over Cartoon Network schedule now I'm not saying Cartoon Network is not allowed to have any animated shows that are strictly comedies I'm just saying that Cartoon Network should have a different variety of shows it can be either a comedy or mature me personally one of the things that make me sad about Infinity train being cancelled is I'll never get to find out what happened to Hazel
@@animezilla4486 I agree
Omg Cartoon network is slowly becoming nickelodeon
Hey you don't gotta drag Teen Titans Go to get the point across lol. Still need dumb comfort shows lmao
i agree
I hate the fact that Cartoon Network now wants episodic fillers rather than something that’s really gonna shine. because I wish that cartoon network could change their minds and can’t always get what they want but sometimes just get something from other people and appreciate it rather than just cancelling it all together
Action cartoons were hella episodic too
@@ChangedMyNameFinally69 But they still had a serialise story but they just had a lot of filler like Naruto
Cartoon Network has always done episodic shows such as PowerPuff Girls, The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy, Batman: The Brave and the Bold, The Amazing World of Gumball, and Ed, Edd, and Eddy. They all shine through
@@JLacay Not always but they have told some story arcs and add some anime’s is in the past
@@akiraevangelionultimateali5199 Not always
Children like this type of maturity in their shows as it questions their views and makes them think about things. That was the case for me and I can see others having the same view.
That's why anime is getting so popular amoungst kids. Show's like One Punch Man, Demon Slayer and Attack On Titian have more blood and gore than your average R-rated American film.
Except this show IS NOT mature. It bored the hell out of me. The issues are what the plebs of today perceive as 'mature', because they're simply SO MUCH WEAKER than my generation. Shit, we had family die all the time. AND WE SHRUGGED IT OFF. People today are so frail and fragile, they can't handle ANYTHING without mental breakdowns.
@@Alondro77 ok boomer.
@@Alondro77 i see you r one of those ' participation trophy' people
@@Alondro77 this man out here actin like people don't die no more
“They canceled Infinity Train for too mature”
Me looking my traumatized child self who watched Courage the Cowardly dog:
You think that's bad what about hey arnold the jungle movie cancelled for more than a decade?
>Most popular shows are a mature show that handles deep topics, a deeper story and big mysteries
CN: Ok, but whattabout Ed Edd and Eddy Babies? It's not like Ed Edd and Eddy *AND* it has babies!
Well, Ed, Edd, n Eddy ended on a good note and I think it's safe to say that the creator had a right to own the show instead of CN.
There's a channel called "Peach Creek". Maybe you should check it out.
@@poweroffriendship2.0 Ed, Edd and Eddy Babies is what you would call ending on a good note?
@@dantemiles689 Haven't you even watched Ed, Edd, n Eddy: The Big Picture Show? If you don't, then check it out. That's how the show ended.
They’ve had shows like Adventure Time and Regular Show though, both dark shows
@@unofficialbeautyqueen6624 Yeah, which were very episodic shows, iirc.
CN favors episodic shows over story-driven ones because they can air them as re-runs without caring about the viewers not understanding them.
Regular Show and Adventure Time needed to build up to their plot for a long time and still had to do it in things like the 'Elements special' (Since CN is kind of fine with plot-stuff if they can promote it as a special.) to do multi-part plot.
CN just REALLY hates anything with an ongoing story that doesn't very cleverly sprinkle it in the subtext of episodic episodes.
Adventure Time had some very, very dark moments, and it was one of CN’s most popular shows. Steven Universe was emotionally mature, and it was popular too. Hell, Gumball and Regular Show were pretty mature! Mature animation doesn’t have a harder time finding success unless it’s interfered with by the higher-ups, and the notion that kids can’t enjoy it is pure idiocy. I’ve met kids that like Infinity Train, and of course I’ve met adults that like Infinity Train, and any age in between, so cancelling it is the biggest mistake they could make.
Too much hiatus makes us impatient waiting to see what happens next
The amazing thing is that gravity falls is not cancled and it's on frickin Disney channel a frickin Disney channel 😂😂😂
Because I guess disney can handle that stuff might cartoon network can't because it was to much for children
@@DjSoSmooveMINTY124 I find that weird since it was always attended to be an HBO Max original so it doesn't make sense for the maturity of it to matter considering the fact is much worse stuff than infinity train on HBO Max so it doesn't make sense to cancel Infinity train for being too mature
Disney Channel Treats their animated show with respect than CN's IT. SAD that the Mouse was the good guy.
@@teddyfurstman1997 Seriously;
Disney Does REBOOTS Right; I.E. Ducktales 2017[R.I.P.]
Disney EVEN Did the plot of a BAD Spongebob Episode(A Pal For Gary) and MADE IT WORK Better than Nickolodeon'S Failure!!
P.S. The Episode is Domino 2 from Amphibia
@@davidalicea6705 exactly
This was such a foolish mistake, we need more shows like infinity train to teach our kids all these important and complex lessons it teaches.
And canceling mature cartoons like this and letting all these comedy cartoons take its place only ruins their ability to understand such topics when growing up.
An Alztheimers season, ironically the most popular show Adventure Time Ice King/Simon Petrikov was a character with alzheimers he basically gave fans basically gave kid fans and older a look at the struggles of a person with Alzheimer's and the affects it had on their family.
not to mention brain damage, father abandonment, genocide, nuclear war
and the simon and betty of sacrificing your life for your love of your life to stay safe.
and i mean the Simon and Marceline episodes were depressing of a man losing his mind to keep those who he loves safe. not just alzheimers and dementia, but insanity, post-partum, schizophrenia, etc.
Ah yes adventure time, the show that was also cancelled by CN's merger like ok ko
@@mtj8870 If you think about it, Ok K.O also had its darker aspects, though more thouroughly hidden than most people have the time to look for.
I believe that there's this one villain who constantly committed planetary genocide by eating planets, not sure.....
@@gard3boi311 yeah and princess bubblegum committed genocide multiple times and noody cared
when I hear the name *Simon* I get ptsd
I’m just saying, a guilt themed season and someone who doesn’t wanna leave the train sounds like both could be referring to Kez’s friend Jeremy
That makes so much sense!
Or Amelia bc she’s still crazy trying to make her old life with her dead husband
Life is never going to be all kiddie wholesome and sugar
Live is a long journey we all walk together with and experience
Thanks iroh
That's some Iroh wisdom right there.
UNCLE IROH WATCHES INFINITY TRAIN?!? HELL YES
Thanks iroh
Bro my cousin LOVES this show, and he's 12. The "too mature for kids" thing is absolute bullshit, and everybody knows it.
Ah yes, because anything that can’t be understood by anyone of the age of 2 is “too mature”
Nah, that's pushing it. Infinity Train would've had a much better chance if they didn't kill characters on screen. If you claim 3 year-olds should be exposed to death and murder you have problems. I don't think the show should've been cancelled but Cartoon Network's target audience is literally toddlers.
@@azearaazymoto461 Yeah but you’re both missing the joke and the point. Infinity train was revolutionary and good BECAUSE it wasn’t afraid to kill characters on screen, and it wasn’t like there was blood either. It was just metallic goo. Monsters blow up in children’s shows and spray their guts everywhere all the time and no one bats an eye! No, 3 years olds shouldn’t be exposed fo death. BUT 3 YEAR OLDS ARENT WATCHING INFINITY TRAIN.
@@localizedtea I sail the seven seas so I don't know when infinity train actually airs but if it airs at a decent hour then children will be exposed to it since Cartoon Network has ensured that their primary audience is small children. Blood isn't what makes death disturbing. Big difference between machine parts flying everywhere when a nameless robot is destroyed and metallic goo oozing out as a person is brutally murdered before our very eyes, a person with thoughts and feelings, who to a child especially, would seem almost real.
@@azearaazymoto461 Ok imma just r/wooooooosh you real quick because you’re already making an actual argument out of a joke. It’s the 21st century, just change the channel. CN could of done several things to make this not seen for younger kids eyes (even though it can be watched by anyone). 1. Put a warning before it airs so parents can turn it off. 2. Move it to adult swim. 3. Air it when older children are still awake at night but younger ones are in bed. There are so many things that can be done or avoid this problem is heartbreaking that the show got cancelled.
@@localizedtea I could make an eloquent reply or I could tell you to cut the crap. You made a silly pun, I'm aware. In your first comment you also said you made a point, and I quote, "Yeah but you’re both missing the joke and the point. Infinity train was revolutionary and good BECAUSE it wasn’t afraid to kill characters on screen". Woooosh doesn't magically negate an argument. I don't work at CN, so save it for someone else.
" It helps to say goodbye" Oh wow I think I just heard my heart shatter into a million pieces for the second time while hearing that line from Hazel.
My cousin, an actual 6-12 year old, LOVES this show! I am sad that neither of us will see the full complete saga of this show.
Kids nowadays watch anime like Demon Slayer and Attack On Titian which have more blood and gore than Deadpool.
@@timtam3730 wait not every kid watches anime I think you getting the wrong idea Most teenagers love anime not little kids.
@@Blue-Apple-fc9eo No.... No. Anime grew in viewership thanks to the availability streaming content over the past decade and a half and my impoverished under 10 year old nephew who couldn’t afford cable was able to watch Soul Eater and subtitled and dubbed Digimon and Pokémon XYZ episodes because of the availability of borrowed Netflix and Hulu accounts and piracy websites, so anime was even more available to him BECAUSE his family was impoverished, so if you think poorer demographics don’t watch anime, thus making the risk of CN losing their younger audiences to violent, more intellectually challenging anime’s, then you clearly don’t know what you’re talking about.
@@Popcultureguy3000 that’s not what I meant dude.
@@Blue-Apple-fc9eo Dude, if it’s available and looks interesting to them, they’ll watch it. There is plenty of anime aimed at younger audiences, like Pokémon, Digimon, really any anime franchise that isn’t Gundam that wants to sell models and toys, and when they see these kid friendly ones, chances are they’ll begin to wonder what other kinds of anime shows are out there that they’ll be interested in watching and they might stumble onto something more challenging, maybe even something they might not be ready for, partially because of this misconception that anime itself is some sort of genre (it’s not).
Hazel : It helps to say goodbye
Me : But I’m not ready to say goodbye😢
Never I’m always coming back for hazel
It was the slightly more mature shows on Cartoon Network that kept me engaged with the channel for as long as I did. (Note: this is coming from a former kid whose parents said I couldn’t watch CN until I was 12/13). The age demographic exists, Cartoon Network is missing out on a major money making opportunity.
But those shows usually got canceled because of lack of viewership
I really wish there were more cartoons aimed towards teenagers, I mean there really are only two worlds and that's kid's animation and adult animation. I'm sure there's exceptions but I haven't seen many :C
I swear, CN seems to be stuck in the baby phase lately; especially with the preschool block they plan on bringing in this Fall.
If they didn't bring back Hanna-Barbera Studios and the Cartoon Cartoon Show, I'd be willing to ride along the "Cartoon Network is Dying" bandwagon everyone else is on
Yes not even kids just literal babies who know how to ask for toys bruh
Well, they're also bringing back live-action CN so...
@@sarahsims6164 I really hope they don't fuck that up or ill actually lose hope in cn bruh
Don't even get me started with the disappointment that was TickleU, CNs reaction to Nick Jr. and Playhouse Disney. All though I enjoyed Gerald McBoingboing.
Oh welp, they're going the long rough haul from here. I predict they'll be like nickelodeon
It feels like every five years or so all studio execs need to be educated that ALMOST EVERY AGE GROUP WATCHES CARTOONS. Not that "kid entry point" shows don't have a place, they just shouldn't be the considered the only diet of the animation viewer.
To CN: Maybe if you just let everyone be who they are, you can be who you are too.

YES WE CAN’T GIVE UP. This show isn’t just the best animated show I’ve ever seen, it’s one of the best shows I’ve ever watched PERIOD. We can do this!
Agreed.
Yes!! Infinity Train should be able to tell the story it wants to tell without being chopped down like this, it would be an utter disappointment.
As i said in the twitter post, story driven animated shows deserve better respect. What CN did was really crossing the line at least in my taste just by cancelling it and not giving it a fair chance.
On the bright side, I don't have to keep paying for HBOMax anymore.
Dude it’s Cartoon Network not HBO Max cartoon Network was the one who canceled the show not HBO.
@@Blue-Apple-fc9eo I never said it was HBOMax that cancelled Infinity Train
@@Blue-Apple-fc9eo he's talking about paying for the streaming service dude...
Yarr
It really sucks that Cartoon Network took away this show, especially since they have a really good list of shows going right now in my opinion. I’m 21 and Craig of the Creek is like my comfort show these days. Infinity Train definitely adds something special to their roster that I hope they regret taking away
Then have Adults swim pick it up like they did with Samurai Jack.
It'll take over a decade.
You spelled Adult Swim wrong when you spelled "Adults swim".
For the ends that it has, it was better cancelled. It almost literally plagiarize the end of Gurren Lagann lol
@@hypesion2223
Gurren Lagann was cancelled?
@@Rusticabcd No, Samurai Jack was cancelled. I was just saying that end of the season of Samurai Jack on Adult Swim is a lot similar to the end of Gurren Lagann.
I hate that when people say “it needs to be more kid friendly”. Like kid is a umbrella term for people under eighteen. People use “kid” in tv to imply 4-9 year olds. The majority of animation is directed for those audiences. Teens have barely any animation directed for them. Preteens have next to nothing with animation. Teenagers, like myself, have latched onto anime, in my opinion, because of the lack animation for them. I need more teen animated tv shows that are not comedy’s
Stuff like this honestly makes me angry, and Network's wonder why stories from Japan are booming in popularity with anime, and Manga and interest in america pop culture is dwindling.
Fr. Though I don't watch anime, I can certainly see it's appeal with fascinating stories and bright, shiny, colorful, and detailed visuals unlike the copy and paste bean-face, flat color, dumbed-down for 4 year olds when its meant for 10 year olds that all American animation is now.
@@pyraffin Exactly that's one of the reasons why I started watching Anime anime can get very unique in it's Art style something to wish the United States has long since forgotten sadly everything in the US just looks samey to me now which is sad I would've never thought that not even 5ish year's ago.
@@pyraffin Anime characters are barely detailed and they share the exact same art styles too
@@ItsKagiVids So does anime. Stop being a Boomer
@@ChangedMyNameFinally69 only if you fucking watch Shonen LMFAO.
Kids: *capable of processing very complex concepts*
CN: “NOT SCIENTIFICALLY POSSIBLE”
Isn’t Regular Show kind of in a similar vein in terms of mature audiences??? If so, why wasn’t IT canceled? Heck, one could argue most of Adventure Time and Steven Universe’s episodes/lessons were too mature, and a lot of people think that the ending of Steven Universe Future was a bit rushed.
we even saw worse graphics than in infinity train. like the lich from AT and white diamond from SU
I think it wasn't cancelled because it was a different time. Regular Show, Adventure Time, SU, and Gumball: They were all part of an era and Infinity Train just missed the boat. We saw CN change and even cancel shows while they were building their new block. Now its just cutesy kids shows of *rebooted* properties (like, damn, i thought we dropped this a long time ago) and they don't want anything else. Summer Camp Island managed to sneak through, though. Binge that. Its good.
Just commenting out of anger and so the algorithms will show this to people
That made me sad. Cartoon Network is really becoming evil.
It's a corporation, it's already evil.
@@KalinTheZola I don’t think Cartoon Network is evil I think they are being too optimistic.
@@KalinTheZola They had no choice, Cartoon Network was overthinking it with the whole "too mature" when it should be a little bit mature instead of being too mature. So don't you dare call CN evil.
Literally all corporations are evil. Im going to assume you're young if you don't realize that yet. In order to amass the wealth corporations do, they have to do evil things.
That's Capitalism.
@@nas0518 yea I guess your right but I still hate them about making reboot remakes almost every single time.
Infinity Train is giving me Stranger Thing's vibes rn-
Not to mention my friend was watching book four with her 6 year old family member and HE LOVED IT! I swear to god, kids wanna see it, everyone wants to!
I'd also just like to say to those people yelling "Adventure Time/Steven Universe/Regular Show/[Insert Semi-Recent Cartoon here] existed, why would Infinity Train get cancelled??!!", please take note that these shows were often treated very poorly by CN. Steven Universe was actually cancelled due to their push for LGBT representation (the movie and Future were unexpected) and CN's insistence on Steven Bombs really killed the original show. Adventure Time had their later episodes and seasons scrambled, sliced, and mutilated before it could finally end. Regular Show was similarly mistreated in Season 8 and their finale was barely advertised. And these are examples of the *long running* teen shows. We've all seen shows like Trick Moon and OK KO get unfairly sacked before they got anywhere. What CN is doing is not new, they've been treating these shows like crap for years. Once Summer Camp Island ends, they'll finally have the preschool block they've been working towards.
I don't like this new obsession they have for making preschool cartoons 😕. Really wish we could have another animation renaissance
"Once Summer Camp Island ends, they'll finally have the preschool block they've been working towards."
Are you referring to that strange announcement from them about how they're gonna start showing shows that were originally on PBS kids? If there was one thing that never crossed my mind about them, its them doing THAT.
@@stephanni98 yeah i wrote that a couple months ago. I went through the wiki when i made that comment and the new shows they were going to air were things like Baby Ellen, We Baby Bares, Justice League Cars, Jessica's Little Big World and other shows aimed towards younger audiences. I was angry but i guess it doesn't matter to me anymore. I was just upset that Infinity Train got cancelled for no reason.
Let it get picked up by someone else. Tuca & Bertie got cancelled on Netflix and transferred to Adult Swim. I feel like a reverse situation could happen, where Netflix picks it up a few years down the line. Only God knows
How about adult swim? If they allowed for Tuca and Bertie and samurai Jack season 5
Or anyone

Watching shows get cut down before they can finish is heartbreaking. Infinity train deserved better
Hopefully it will get the seasons it deserves
It’s sad when an amazing show ends to early.There are so many examples like Infinity Train that ended to early
Infinity Train: a complex show that handles themes of divorce, identity, redemption, and restraint friendships. Things that many kids can relate to and learn life lessons from.
Cartoon Network: Nah, give the kids fart jokes instead!
Okay I hate to say this but Cartoon Network have shown to be irredeemable
1. Choosing something very immature rather than something that would be cool like that other show
2. Stared calling themselves cat-toon network
3. Constantly add teen Titans go
4. Making the Ben 10 reboot movies into specials which totally rushed everything
I'm used to this treatment from Cartoon Network. I'm still not over Sym-Bionic Titan unless yall too young to remember this one.
Cartoon Network are basically a big fat bag of hypnotics because they had and green lighted shows that show mature theme like adventure time, Regular Show and Steven Universe. Hell they even got away with some of the deaths of some characters and slipped in some adult humor in their previous shows. I am honestly glad I’m not the only one who thinks that and CN just pretty much did what Nickelodeon did with their shows like Harvey Beaks, welcome to the Waynes and the rise of tmnt.
both nick and cartoon network are shells of their former selves
@@jdawson7877 that’s very true.
I think the biggest travesty of this is that book 4 will always been seen as the bittersweet inconclusive ending to this amazing show instead of being looked at as its own seperate thing. It won't be for a while until people can fully appreciate this season without being reminded that the show is cancelled and I really do think that's a shame. Because this was a good book, with amazing characters, and a beautiful continuity between episodes.
Not suprised cartoon network gets rid of great shows like this but keeps garbage, no wonder their failing as a network.
This is the time where yall need to use your voice. We have the power to bring this show back.
Imagine if invincible was on Cartoon Network lol that show wound even last a second canceled instantly
Or would've been moved to Adult Swim, that channel exists
@@barrettbirks1058 haha yes and join up with Rick and morty now that’s a show I want to watch
Im so mad why would they cancel something that's 10 min long a episode
I’m gonna guess they’ll be a decent drop in HBOMAX subscribers in the coming weeks. Since it was one of their highest streamed shows last time I checked.
why don't they listen when we say we want animation for everyone and not just kids, like, when people hear anime they know its a variety but the fact cartoons are forced to be for kids is an insult to artistry and animators everywhere =_=
One thing I caught is that season 4 is set before the other seasons because Amelia is younger and you can see (if I remember correctly) in episode 9 when Amelia took over and I forgot which but one of the earlier episodes they stopped having to wear uniforms and they could be more themselves there
So yeah this season was definitely set before the other 3
This could have been one of the most revolutionary animated series ever. If HBO doesnt take opportunities like this to make more top tier TV then i aint gonna be surprised when Netflix just eats up all the competition
Imagine making a great tv show with effort and lots of hard work for in order to be cancelled.
Time and money wasted
Yeah
And that is what Cartoon Network big mistake. If they keep cancel cartoon to much, it will keep killing the channel. Can you imagine if they cancel Mao Mao or Craig of the Creek, you know that this channel is going to die
I feel like with 8 books we would've gotten Amelia's full story from the entrance to exit. I guess if that happens then she becomes the true protagonist of the show. Also, maybe Amelia is the character who doesn't want to leave the train because it's all she has left or that it's become home to her. Man, I hope that in a few months we'll get that Book 5 teaser outta nowhere.
I feel like the perfect middle ground is stuff like Adv Time, Kid Cosmic and Amphibia. Kids can easily enjoy it, but the show's not afraid to make dark jokes and scare the shit out of their viewers
Edit: (14:15) HBO Max came to my region yayy
Kid cosmic is underrated as hell
adventure time was extremely kiddy it put me off hardcore.
i couldn’t watch past s2 e3 it was just the same stupid shit with with no story behind it or deeper meaning to drag you in.
@@sirstan4897 The show gets darker around the middle of season 3, I think.
The early episodes are a lot sillier
@@robo-roger7815 i may come back to it one day. especially since it’s nostalgic to me for some strange reason
@@Im_bor3d0 hon yes
Yo CN, the 90’s wants a word with you. (no seriously when I was growing up in the 90’s there was a lot of shows that tackled mature themes and most were on Nick)
Im praying for hope of Infinity Train Book 5 not being gone forever🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏, this gem of a show can't go out like this😖
many later this decade, maybe......
Somebody needs to start a Kickstarter to buy a billboard. Mystery Science Theatre style. Idk who’s brave enough among us to start said Kickstarter, but somebody’s gotta do it 😭
Book 4 should’ve been book 2 it would have definitely be kept by CN because of how it was bearly any deaths that we seen 😅
The fucking butterfly is immortal lel
@@joeyno137 Making denizens were just built differently back then. It is possible that Amelia messed up an essential part of denizens that made it possible for them to die.
@@caseyp5861 makes sense since theres a theory that when denizens die they get turned into ghoms (I hope the gohm who killed simon was tuba) and we didnt see a SINGLE gohm in book 4!
As soon as They released Book 4 , they finally realized they're lagging, they've brought Back Hanna Barbera EMEA (UK, Europe, Middle East, Africa and Australia) and "Cartoon Cartoons: A Cartoon Network Studios Shorts Program" and they said the studio will now be creating Cartoon Cartoons for Pre Schoolers, Kids, Teens, Young Adults and Classics. Yes they officially said "Teens."
Well, the show was fun while it lasted
and it will remain one of the best shows to ever air on CN
Yes INDEED
Possible stretch when things like Adventure Time exists and gave us the best songs 😂
It’s not over yet, we can still get this show renewed
I decided to watch this show because I was curious 2 days ago, and now it's one of my favorite shows. I really wish this was more popular...
Remember Ben 10 ultimate alien or Over The Garden Wall? They got pretty dark too
Also Ben 10 Omniverse had the universe being destroyed and being remade so....That's super dark
@@sonictennyson2201 People always hate on Ben 10 omniverse despite it being mostly respectful to what came before.
But not like, murdering children dark
@@barrettbirks1058 ...you seen over the garden wall? It definitely isn't afraid to go there
@@irecordwithaphone1856 but that's like a spooky fairytale for kids like Scary Storys to tell in the Dark. But this is too emotionally raw. The show starts with Tulip and her mom screaming at each other over her mom's divorce. At the end of book 3, there's that scene where the main character is mentally tortured to her breaking point. I'm not saying kids shouldn't watch it, but I feel like it'll mess them up a little
Wait Infinity train is too dark? My younger siblings absolutely love this show, the really wanted a season 5
Remember when Adventure Time existed
Still does, adventure time distant lands
And it’s not like it was canceled
What time is it
It's cool.its gonna go to HBo
@SuperstarGalaxy 127 yeah miss that show alot
I feel very bad for the Infinity Train fans who lost a great show and even more sorry for the show itself which never got to tell it's complete story.
But in the face of all these difficulties, it's even more marvelous when a show does survive. So shout out to my show Ninjago for keeping it real and still going strong on CN even after 10 years. Ninjago has survived long enough that it can reap the rewards of nostalgia even without being cancelled. I'm so proud of it for not just predating but also outlasting so many other shows on the network.
This is BS Cartoon Network birthed both Courage The Cowardly Dog & Over The Garden Wall! Dark cartoons aren't something new to them
For that matter, look at their current Adult Swim content... Final Space, Rick and Morty, Primal?
"Too mature". That really is a stupid reason no matter how you slice it! As if CN didn't have other shows that appealed to mature viewers. Are they ever gonna get their heads out of their ***** and realize that it's better to be chock full of shows that appeal to ALL AGES instead of just shows that appeal to little kids?
5) Grief?
THIS IS AMELIA AND HAZEL BOOK! IT HAS TO BE!
Also, I WANT to see the book where the main character actually stayed on the train!
Same! And IKR I was thinking it was Amelia and Hazel's book too
..Uhh, I don’t think you realize, but the creator confirmed that book 5 was gonna be the movie they had written, and it was gonna be about Amelia’s takeover of the train.
I believe on the AMA on reddit, they said the events of book 5 would have been parallel to book 4 I thinkk
@@garbagegremlin That means book 6 would have Amelia and Hazel's book: Amelia would feel guilty after everything she has done 🤔... Or book 5 would have jump between past and present
Cartoon Network became the thing they swear to defeat
I think the reason Cartoon Network canceled this show because Cartoon Network is turning to baby content.
This is a huge problem with Animation industries like Nick, Cartoon network, and Disney infinity train sounds like a great show with a good story but the "industries" want shows that pretty dumb down, to kiddish, and fart or gross out jokes i have a friend who warned me and others not to pitch shows or work in the industry they will pretty much mess up and destroy what you envisioned your cartoon.
To dark?? This has the right amount of darkness and maturity
it really hasn't quite hit me yet that book 4 was the last.
but every time i rewatch it or see a video on it, i get sad. i've been fortunate enough to have all the shows i've enjoyed finish properly, so this is new to me. this show has easily become one of my favorites and it would be SUCH a shame to have it end early. fan engagement helped it come to life to begin with; perhaps it can bring it back.
Welcome back, we missed you guys 😁, you’ve been quite that it’s a little nerve wreck 😅
I think Owen Dennis should go the samurai jack route and move to adult swim. He can appeal to his mature audience and won’t be cancelled. Most importantly *more murder.*
Yay, more dead children
@@barrettbirks1058 blood and gore
Typical Cartoon Network. Them and Nickelodeon will never change nor understand what still makes a good show and what's "expensive" In there eyes and all they see are dollar sign In there faces any nothing more! Still acting like manchildren too scare to handle little bit of drama nowadays while us "Real adult" can still mature through this jsut fine!
“We’re all on our own now.”
*oh great thanks, it’s not like I needed another mystery cliffhanger in a TV show that will never be resolved.*
A bunch of us are gonna get on the train for Not letting go of this series me included 😂🤣🤣🤣
I urge you guys to not give up hope. Total Drama still has a very active, tight knit community that waited SEVEN YEARS for a new full length season with the main competition and we got TWO. Not sure how good they're gonna be based on the description of them, but i can tell you that the wait is worth it. Stay active in the community because there is always a chance that we can get more.
Cartoon Network:
NOOOO, SHOWS CANT BE MATURE
Show: ha ha we go brr
I can almost gaurentee you that if infinity train was owned by disney, they would let him have as many seasons as he wanted. Even netflix would've. I see tons of netflix originals that look complete garbage and no one probably watches them get rebooted for a second season.
