He probably said 2008 because that’s when many shows were cancelled and ended. (KND, Camp Lazlo, Ben 10, Class of 3000, Gym Partners, Billy and Mandy, then Fosters and Ed Edd n Eddy)
Cartoon Network died when they started airing TTG nonstop on the channel. Some may say it died in 2007 when they started airing live action, but the network was still alive during that time because they still had cartoons (more cartoons than live action), and all live action shows went away in 2013. The year 2009 was when the network started dying, but it gained it views back once Adventure Time first came out. I started watching Cartoon Network in 2013, which was a great year because even tho TTG first aired, there was more variety, and many shows aired more than TTG. Once they favored TTG over many other series, and those series getting cancelled in favor of TTG, that's when the network became known for only airing TTG. It's slowly recovering now with more variety, which I'm happy with, but people still recognize Cartoon Network today as only airing TTG which is sad. Christina Miller killed the network, and it'll never be the same.
Not really because Adventure Time and Regular Show was still running after when Teen Titans Go aired. They also did focused on Adventure Time (they still do) as it became a franchise. Adventure Time and Regular Show only ended because they have a story going on which would be bound to end anyways not because they favored Teen Titans Go which is an atrocious show
@@arinhossain2100 Adventure Time and Regular Show got little to no reruns from 2015 onward, with Adventure Time not even getting new episodes advertised anymore after mid-2016 (aside from the Minecraft special and series finale).
Cartoon Network has truly fallen in 2014 when Christina Miller took over. 2008 was the beginning of the end to Cartoon Network when Stuart Snyder took over with Live Action content coming in and Toonami was out. Maxwell Atoms mostly has a good point mentioning about this that doesn't look close to being unfair.
For me as a teen watching TV on 08 it was the decline of CN, getting rid of CN city, changing it to Harharharsdays and Fred Dynamite, most of the 2000s cartoons were ending, they pushed for more live action. But they did recover and had good shows around 2010. But watching TV that time was so boring. The day it died? I'd say around now.
The way I see it, Cartoon Network got a potentially deadly illness in 2008 (during the CN Real era). Said illness went into remission in 2010 (thanks to the breakout hits that were "Adventure Time", and "Regular Show"). Then said potentially deadly illness came back with a vengeance around late 2013-early 2014 (when "Teen Titans Go" was becoming Cartoon Network's equivalent to Nickelodeon's "SpongeBob Squarepants", and Christina Miller took over the network and started axing every show that wasn't an elementary school level of childish comedy; (or at least had a significant amount of said childish comedy in it)). And finally the potentially deadly illness officially beacme terminal around late 2019-early 2020 (when Tom Ascheim took over the network, every cartoon that wasn't "Teen Titans Go" and "Craig of the Creek" was either being canceled outright (due to having a large or significant audience size that eschewed to ANYONE over age 11), or (in the case of >sigh< "Thundercats Roar") a stupidishly childish comedy that was already green-lit and too far into production under Miller's tenure, and Ascheim going all-in on the preschool demographic with the "Cartoonito" block. And if you wanted to go further (as of this posting's date), Cartoon Network is currently in hospice (between the Warner Bros-Discovery merger, David Zazlov all but outright eliminating animation from the merged company's budget, and the closure of Cartoon Network Studios in early 2024.
But what will happen with Cartoon Network's assets and Intellectual property? Who has the rights to all this shows? And if cartoon network studios is closed then how is gumball coming back?
Personally I think Cartoon Network Died in 2009 cause that’s when the live action shows took over as the focus of the channel then it gotten worse starting in 2014 of Christina miller getting rid of action shows especially and had teen titans go changing the landscape of the network by overtaking the schedule lineup.
Bro, I don't know if they've ever or will ever truly "die" for a long time despite how many problems there have been over the years, and especially now and within the past few years under the poor leadership of different executives like former President of the network Christina Miller, Vishnu, and any other executives that came in at that time! It's just really been a rough time for them and I hope that they get back to that era where they were truly great back in the '90s and '00s and in the beginning of the 2010s and stuff like that, man! We need that back, please, y'all! Let's go!
I think what people need to realize is that every generation grows up. Whatever the kids in the 90s experience won't be the same as kids in 2024, people should appreciate that they had it good when they had the chance; the memories we had watching our favorite shows will live on in our hearts. In simple words, people should move on. Another thing, we should stop blaming CN and blame David Z. for the decisions he is making for the network. I thought Christina Miller was bad, but she's an angel compared to David Z. At least she didn't cancel a bunch of projects left and right for the dumbest reasons. If you want CN to thrive again, then the community should step up and have their voices be heard.
There were a few close encounters when the brand had fallen during some years but it might get back up and bring in something good if it's new or returning.
Even if they get Jim samples back.. In the long run its still not going to help revive the network as a whole considering its state with its parent company Warner Brothers. Its true Jim samples was the best president of Cartoon Network but if we're being honest here, he is overrated and we need to move on from the past and wish for a better appeal for the network.
@@mugen_master335 Yes. Whoever the president of Cartoon Network is, he/she still needs to follow the higher ups of CN's parent company (nowadays Warner Bros. and during Samples tenure from 2001 to 2007, Turner Broadcasting System owned by Time Warner/AOL Time Warner).
Though a good majority of people who watched CN in the 2000s could say that CN truly "died" in 2008, I think we can all unanimously agree that It has came to a downward spiral once Christina Miller entered the scene in 2014 and has officially died once the WB-Discovery merger was formed. If we truly think carefully about it, True under Stuart Snyder's administration a lot of the classic "cartoon cartoons" have came to an end during his early days and that a lot of the cartoons during the CN city era were being cancelled left, right and centered. But we can also come to agreement that during this time aswell there have been a lot of factors which made them cut corners (i.e. Writer's strike, etc.) But even so under Snyder came the rise of popularity of Canadian animation on the network, aswell as the continuation of Ben 10 and Generator Rex during the late 2000s. Many could argue aswell that live action was "predominant" during this time, but even so, there was still variety and lets not also forget re-runs of older cartoons on its schedule compared to today and that the live action side of things also started to die out by 2013 (To be honest even with live action on the network it wasn't so bad, Destroy Build Destroy & DWWH paved way for early RUclips myth busters and Incredible crew also played a part for the cast's future careers.) By the time 2010 hit under Snyder's administration, things were much better for CN. The big three: Regular Show, Adventure Time and Gumball helped revived the channel as a whole and lets not forget its iconic jingles and its 20th anniversary. Toonami was also back and better than ever and anime became a strong driving force for the network once again. Action was also highly demanded and predominant during this time aswell which changed a whole new perspective of CN as a network as a whole. Under Christina Miller however...... It were to take the early mistakes of Snyder and just made it 100x worse. TTG started to become the cash cow of CN, they loss the rights and acquisition to Pokemon aswell as alot of their classics such as Loony Toons and Tom and Jerry, and lets not forget her awful idea of rebranding Boomerang and making it a dumpster for modern cartoons. "Reboots" were worse and alot of the shows were pretty much "dumbed down" and "kid -friendly." The Dimensional era as a whole was a huge dumpster fire and CN as a whole under her adminitration was just overall garbage. She was also the one to change alot of show's format from 24mins to 11 to try to keep up with the pace of TTG. Did I also forget to mention that alot of the show creators/show runners under her administration were also filed for either SA or CP? Just recently the creator of Mighty Magiswords was filed for having over 400 pics of CP. Its true that Snyder's mistakes of the past has crippled Cartoon Network as a whole during the 2000s, but to say that it Killed CN would be an understatement. Though i doubt many would read this comment I just thought i could share this thought with you all. Squadala yall! -Mugen Master
Actually, The downfall of CN has started in 2007 where adult swim’s ATHF movie promotion have a tragic event which changed everything from time Warner. It was the actual end of an era
They only want fame and admiration at the expense of the company and its reputation, not only in America but in the entire world In any case, there is still hope for its strong return to produce dozens/hundreds of original shows annually, with both quality and quantity at the same time (provided that the number of shows produced annually exceeds the range between 50 and 300 shows), despite all the difficulties and crisis it is currently going through. The same thing applies to other animation companies, including Disney and Nickelodeon
I don’t think it’s fair to say Stuart Snyder was the “death” of CN. He has had some controversial decisions (CN Real, pre-mature cancellations), but he is also responsible for some of the biggest hits of the network as well. I’d say around 2015 with Christina Miller as president is when you see a focus pushed towards the mobile app, bad scheduling, an over reliance on TTG, and the general decline in cable that saw the “death” of the network.
In all honesty, Cartoon Network started dying since 2014 and 2015. Besides Teen Titans GO!, 2013 was the last good year for CN, because we still had variety, we had MAD, Johnny Test, Grojband, Pokemon, etc. We even had Cartoon Planet. I don't get why people still are saying TTG killed the network when a death of a network doesn't rely on one terrible cartoon. For example: A death of a network is like turning it's back on everything that made it great in the first place. Christina Miller removed everything that was great about the network. She got rid of Cartoon Planet, she got rid of the 22-min format, she got rid of some shows, she got rid of the original Ben 10-type of properties, and she greenlit a lot of reboots that were disliked by the cartoon community. She was also trying to make Teen Titans GO! their SpongeBob SquarePants, when Teen Titans GO! was a Warner Bros. Animation cartoon, not a Cartoon Network original. Teen Titans GO! is not a reboot, it's actually a spin-off from a comic series. Teen Titans and Teen Titans GO! are both completely different shows. The haters are the reason why Teen Titans GO! is still running, because instead of ignoring the show, they often hate watch it. I used to love Teen Titans GO! from 2013-2017, however, once I got older, I started to realize how bad it was. Season 1 was the most tolerant season, while season 2-onwards became more braindead and brainrot. If it wasn't for Christina Miller, everything would've been fine and dandy. Teen Titans GO! is actually a show greenlit by Stuart Snyder, not Christina Miller.
On the contrary of that aswell, there were speculations that snyder greenlit TTG mostly because he saw it as a one hit thing/spin-off rather than a reboot but then came Shitstaina Killer (Christina Miller) favoring the show and made it its cash cow just to make CN more "hip" and "kid-friendly"
Regular Show, Steven Universe, Ben 10, Gumball, Adventure Time, We Bare Bears THAT WAS THE BEST AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH SINCE IM ON MAGENTA TV I CANT WATCH THAT WHEN I WAS ON VODAPHONE IVE WATCHED THAT 🙁😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹😭😭😭 and TTG was good too
I'd have to agree with Maxwell in that 2008 really was the end. It's not that the new cartoons weren't good (even by matter of taste), its that the network was flip-flopping new ideas to spice up the channel but ended up losing sight of what made CN special. CN REAL was a mistake. It wouldn't be wrong to have occasional live-action content, but for the network's namesake... it's about CARTOONS. And instead of funding new shows from their older veteran creators while supplying new talent, they essentially threw the baby out with the bathwater. The mistreatment of even their more underrated shows (including acquired Warner Bros. Animations) also didn't help. Then, 2014 happened... and all those mergers happened too.
Ok but there were also speculations that Jim samples was also going to aim CN to be a kids network rather than animation which is why he greenlit Out of Jimmy's head. Stuart just decided to take what Jim planned and cranked it up to 11 and cut corners due to the writers strike. Its a terrible mistake to say the least but its understandable why they would want to do so as during this time Live action was also starting to become popular on both Disney and Nickelodeon. But to say it killed the network... I think not. It like having a kid who became the angsty wannabe cool kids but got over it later on in life.
@@aertnadle2466 Yeah It did... until Christina Miller came and ruined it all for us. If I had a dollar for all the bad things and controversy CN has done under her administration, I'd be rich.
@@mart5610 Not nearly as prevalent as 2009 and we also got a lot of animated shows to compensate like Adventure Time, Regular Show, Ben 10 franchise, Generator Rex, Gumball, Uncle Grandpa, and Steven Universe.
clone wars, ben alien force, adventure time, regular show, and some others carried after that lowkey that was peak for me at that time LOL even when I watched before then i'd say realistically like 2016/2017 and after when CN went downhill
I agree that CN died with the introduction of teen titans go. They basically ruined any new shows or shoved away other shows by completely filling up their timeline with teen titans go
I'd say once CN real came about. It's when "cartoon" network wasn't that anymore since live action was now being broadcast. They had a Renaissance though afterwards but I would say that is when it "died"
In my opinion, I don't think Cartoon Network is dead. It's still going on. I still have no idea where the 6th Ben 10 series is. However, I'm glad that Christina has been gone since 2019. Teen Titans Go needs to go away because it has been here for 11 years! Although, I think I still have a plan to convince Max to bring back Ben 10 Alien Force, Ultimate Alien, and Omniverse and bring in Sym-Bionic Titan, Generator Rex, and The Secret Saturdays to the streaming service.
@@mandy.oppermann4479 Sorry, Teen Titans Go isn't one of my favorites, I just like the original Teen Titans better. No hard feelings, man. I also don't like the Ben 10 reboot, bro. If you want to know why, because I don't care about the Ben 10 reboot. That's my opinion and the truth
I don’t know why people thinks CN is dead in 2008 although they bring good shows in years until somewhere in the late 2010s because of the reboots and those live action shows shouldn’t be on this channel, it should be on Nick or Disney instead cause they make live actions while CN only makes animations but it doesn’t mean that the network is going to shutdown because of the “dead” situation especially as now during the WBD/Zaslav era.
I would think that cartoon Network died when they got rid of their action shows because after 2015 after getting rid of some many action shows, a lot of people walked away from it like nobody and basically after so many reboot series or based from original cartoon series who returned from action to comedy like I never liked Teen Titans go, and I really have issues with the Bakugan reboots by far and even the Ben 10 reboot really out of place. It just made me really hate reboot all the way the only good reboot that was ever good in cartoon Network was the ThunderCats 2011 series but they canceled that series. It was one of the first action series to be canceled after 2012 along with young Justice end eventually Ben 10 as well and eventually they would lose the right to air Star Wars after Disney bought the rights for them the shows I I barely watch Cartoon Network after 2013 and I barely watched the only good shows that were there were with Ninjago. All of the shows. I used to watch back before 2013 getting canceled and basically made me turned away and after 2015 I stopped watching Cartoon Network, the only thing I could ever watch on on the same channel as Cartoon Network was toonami cause I watch all the shows on every Saturday night. They brought back samurai Jack back in 2017. The only thing that was ever making me watch the channel was again was toonami Ceneric just gets worse and worse for me because it’s no longer the cartoon I used to watch with all the action shows gone and character development swift I’m saying Cartoon Network made its own demise
The channel "died" once the live-action era ended, and adventure time came around. Flapjack and Secret Saturdays were good, but its peak was shows like Billy and Mandy and Kids Next Door. Cartoon networks around the 90s seemed good, too. Idk what will happen now, but hopefully, someone will get rid of the woke and get back to how it was before 2009.
Unpopular opinion but I think Adult Swim was partly responsible for Cartoon Network's downfall in the long run. Almost every year, Adult Swim kept slowly taking over Cartoon Network's schedule coming on earlier and earlier. To the point it started airing 7pm while kids are still up. Adult Swim really had no business being on the network in the first place.
Cartoon Network ended with Omniverse. A network is not over if they have something to show. Granted Ben 10 and Teen Titans were...all they had to show...
Personally Cartoon Network died for me in 2022 why because they stopped making news shows the merger destroyed Cartoon Network I had hope back in 2021 when they were making new cartoons but they got cancelled I mean I’m aware the hate the network was getting back then but atleast the network wasn’t dead but sadly in 2008 Cartoon Network got sick but recovered I’m 2010 all was fine but 3 years later cn got affected again but sadly lost to the sickness in 2022 he had a good battle but died
CN died in 2019 when Gumball and We Bare Bears both ended. Teen Titans Go also did damage to the brand. At least CN still does put out bangers like Adventure Time Distant Lands and Fionna and Cake spin off series. I guess at this point Adventure Time is the only show that's carrying CN
L opinion honestly, We bare bears has to be one of the best slice of life Cartoon Network had to offer within the mess of the Dimensional era. Might not be your thing but it was a good show to tune your mind off from the ass that was Teen Titans Go.

Old CN shows was the real deal and regular show too now those new show and reboot have killed it officially
Cartoon Network died in my opinion in the early 2010’s when Cartoon Network was taking a break of animation that’s when it truly died.

She was also trying to make Teen Titans GO! their SpongeBob SquarePants, when Teen Titans GO! was a Warner Bros. Animation cartoon, not a Cartoon Network original. Teen Titans GO! is not a reboot, it's actually a spin-off from a comic series. Teen Titans and Teen Titans GO! are both completely different shows. The haters are the reason why Teen Titans GO! is still running, because instead of ignoring the show, they often hate watch it. I used to love Teen Titans GO! from 2013-2017, however, once I got older, I started to realize how bad it was. Season 1 was the most tolerant season, while season 2-onwards became more braindead and brainrot. If it wasn't for Christina Miller, everything would've been fine and dandy. Teen Titans GO! is actually a show greenlit by Stuart Snyder, not Christina Miller.
On the contrary of that aswell, there were speculations that snyder greenlit TTG mostly because he saw it as a one hit thing/spin-off rather than a reboot but then came Shitstaina Killer (Christina Miller) favoring the show and made it its cash cow just to make CN more "hip" and "kid-friendly"
@@mugen_master335 She drove a lot of fans to quitting the network.
Regular Show, Steven Universe, Ben 10, Gumball, Adventure Time, We Bare Bears THAT WAS THE BEST AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH SINCE IM ON MAGENTA TV I CANT WATCH THAT WHEN I WAS ON VODAPHONE IVE WATCHED THAT 🙁😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹😭😭😭 and TTG was good too
0:38 How Dare you Jellystone is Honestly the best thing to come out of Cartoon network in many years. It's really ending I need more
Life is often wild to handle
Adult Swim is taking everything away and that's probably the reason Cartoon Network died
I'd have to agree with Maxwell in that 2008 really was the end. It's not that the new cartoons weren't good (even by matter of taste), its that the network was flip-flopping new ideas to spice up the channel but ended up losing sight of what made CN special. CN REAL was a mistake. It wouldn't be wrong to have occasional live-action content, but for the network's namesake... it's about CARTOONS. And instead of funding new shows from their older veteran creators while supplying new talent, they essentially threw the baby out with the bathwater. The mistreatment of even their more underrated shows (including acquired Warner Bros. Animations) also didn't help. Then, 2014 happened... and all those mergers happened too.
Ok but there were also speculations that Jim samples was also going to aim CN to be a kids network rather than animation which is why he greenlit Out of Jimmy's head. Stuart just decided to take what Jim planned and cranked it up to 11 and cut corners due to the writers strike. Its a terrible mistake to say the least but its understandable why they would want to do so as during this time Live action was also starting to become popular on both Disney and Nickelodeon.
But to say it killed the network... I think not. It like having a kid who became the angsty wannabe cool kids but got over it later on in life.
Didn't things get better in 2010-14 with more original cartoons again and live action being downplayed?
@@aertnadle2466 Yeah It did... until Christina Miller came and ruined it all for us. If I had a dollar for all the bad things and controversy CN has done under her administration, I'd be rich.
@@aertnadle2466live action shows were still there in the early 2010s.
@@mart5610 Not nearly as prevalent as 2009 and we also got a lot of animated shows to compensate like Adventure Time, Regular Show, Ben 10 franchise, Generator Rex, Gumball, Uncle Grandpa, and Steven Universe.
Yeah in 2014 was the teen titans go network. Saying 2008 is wild
After Regular Show ended. Cartoon Network just hasn't been the same anymore.
CN n WB IPs as a whole died since David n execs took over
That makes no sense 2008 is the time Ben 10 f**ked out the shit about the other series it was the best franchise
Yea probably because of omniverse and that is my favorite show but I was just a 1 year old I didn't know anything
clone wars, ben alien force, adventure time, regular show, and some others carried after that lowkey that was peak for me at that time LOL even when I watched before then i'd say realistically like 2016/2017 and after when CN went downhill
I agree that CN died with the introduction of teen titans go. They basically ruined any new shows or shoved away other shows by completely filling up their timeline with teen titans go
The Rise, Fall, Rise Again and Fall Again of Cartoon Network.
And Rise Again (potentially) if you take in account for the Annecy Festival 2024
I'd say once CN real came about. It's when "cartoon" network wasn't that anymore since live action was now being broadcast. They had a Renaissance though afterwards but I would say that is when it "died"
Late 2014 to Early 2015.
Cartoon Network as a brand or network isn’t dead, it’s the studios building that ended last year.
Nah, it's been dead for almost 2 decades now.
@@lexruptor20 years?!
That's cap, it has a rise in 2010 until around 2015.
@@lexruptornah it's been dead since 2019
For me personally it would be in 2014.
On November 14 when ben 10 omniverse two more seasons were canceled
Nah it was 2019 when Gumball and We Bare Bears ended
In my opinion, I don't think Cartoon Network is dead. It's still going on. I still have no idea where the 6th Ben 10 series is. However, I'm glad that Christina has been gone since 2019. Teen Titans Go needs to go away because it has been here for 11 years! Although, I think I still have a plan to convince Max to bring back Ben 10 Alien Force, Ultimate Alien, and Omniverse and bring in Sym-Bionic Titan, Generator Rex, and The Secret Saturdays to the streaming service.
YESSSS BABY but i love TTG :(
@@mandy.oppermann4479 Sorry, Teen Titans Go isn't one of my favorites, I just like the original Teen Titans better. No hard feelings, man. I also don't like the Ben 10 reboot, bro. If you want to know why, because I don't care about the Ben 10 reboot. That's my opinion and the truth
@@nicktheben10guy ik me too but i wasnt born yet when the original TT came out
We need Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs the series to air on Cartoon Network all day long everyday 24/7.
Wasn’t Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs the series one of the best that came out after 2008?
CN died since Teen Titans Go.
Facts
And since Gumball and We Bare Bears ended. Teen Titans Go is what did alot of damage to the brand
Jellystone is a Max original series that has been run on Cartoon Network for only 10 weeks (so far).
Basically we have nothing until Gumball, the network's dead, has been since 2008.
Adventure Time and Regular Show are masterpieces too
Cartoon Network would go downhill after the 2007 Boston Mooninite Panic and never really recovered.
2010s is the best decade of CN
I don’t know why people thinks CN is dead in 2008 although they bring good shows in years until somewhere in the late 2010s because of the reboots and those live action shows shouldn’t be on this channel, it should be on Nick or Disney instead cause they make live actions while CN only makes animations but it doesn’t mean that the network is going to shutdown because of the “dead” situation especially as now during the WBD/Zaslav era.
Adventure Time, Regular Show and Gumball had carried CN
For me it's because it lost what made the network in the first place "cartoon". Live action had no business being on the channel.
I would think that cartoon Network died when they got rid of their action shows because after 2015 after getting rid of some many action shows, a lot of people walked away from it like nobody and basically after so many reboot series or based from original cartoon series who returned from action to comedy like I never liked Teen Titans go, and I really have issues with the Bakugan reboots by far and even the Ben 10 reboot really out of place. It just made me really hate reboot all the way the only good reboot that was ever good in cartoon Network was the ThunderCats 2011 series but they canceled that series. It was one of the first action series to be canceled after 2012 along with young Justice end eventually Ben 10 as well and eventually they would lose the right to air Star Wars after Disney bought the rights for them the shows I I barely watch Cartoon Network after 2013 and I barely watched the only good shows that were there were with Ninjago. All of the shows. I used to watch back before 2013 getting canceled and basically made me turned away and after 2015 I stopped watching Cartoon Network, the only thing I could ever watch on on the same channel as Cartoon Network was toonami cause I watch all the shows on every Saturday night. They brought back samurai Jack back in 2017. The only thing that was ever making me watch the channel was again was toonami Ceneric just gets worse and worse for me because it’s no longer the cartoon I used to watch with all the action shows gone and character development swift I’m saying Cartoon Network made its own demise
It COMPLETELY died after Steven Universe in 2020
what if Cartoon Network being shut down was just a lie?
CN Died in 2016.
2013/2014
Not really because that was around the time when Regular Show and Adventure Time was still running and gey had been carrying Cartoon Network
MaxWell Was Good 2008 Was The Last Great Year For Cartoon Network
Right
The channel "died" once the live-action era ended, and adventure time came around.
Flapjack and Secret Saturdays were good, but its peak was shows like Billy and Mandy and Kids Next Door.
Cartoon networks around the 90s seemed good, too.
Idk what will happen now, but hopefully, someone will get rid of the woke and get back to how it was before 2009.
Unpopular opinion but I think Adult Swim was partly responsible for Cartoon Network's downfall in the long run.
Almost every year, Adult Swim kept slowly taking over Cartoon Network's schedule coming on earlier and earlier. To the point it started airing 7pm while kids are still up.
Adult Swim really had no business being on the network in the first place.
Cartoon Network ended with Omniverse. A network is not over if they have something to show. Granted Ben 10 and Teen Titans were...all they had to show...
Nah it ended with Gumball and We Bare Bears
I don't think Cartoon Network has died.
I Think That It Died In The Summer Of 2009.
Nah it died when Teen Titans Go aired and since 2019
It's been dead for me since 2001
Nah 2010s better cartoons then the 2000s and 90s
@@arinhossain2100 EXCUSE ME??!! no just no
@@TheFelixGaribay yes they do. Adventure Time and Regular Show are the top 2 best CN shows and clears every CN shows from the 90s and 2000s
Personally Cartoon Network died for me in 2022 why because they stopped making news shows the merger destroyed Cartoon Network I had hope back in 2021 when they were making new cartoons but they got cancelled I mean I’m aware the hate the network was getting back then but atleast the network wasn’t dead but sadly in 2008 Cartoon Network got sick but recovered I’m 2010 all was fine but 3 years later cn got affected again but sadly lost to the sickness in 2022 he had a good battle but died
Adam Burton also created Evil Con Carne.
I see a lot of people saying CN died in the 2010s and saying regular show, adventure time and gumball sucked. At this point it’s nostalgia bias.
CN died in 2019 when Gumball and We Bare Bears both ended. Teen Titans Go also did damage to the brand. At least CN still does put out bangers like Adventure Time Distant Lands and Fionna and Cake spin off series. I guess at this point Adventure Time is the only show that's carrying CN
Neither Adventure Time spin offs aired on CN, those were on Max.
@@aertnadle2466 but CN were still involved with them.
It’s Teen Titans Go
Honestly I'd say CN died in early 2012 , pretty much that's when the last shows that were good appeared
I don't like the modern cartoons on Cartoon Network apart from Tiny Toons Looniversity.
2015/16 is when I thought it died. Nothing good was on
Adventure Time and Regular Show were still running around that time
Grim and zs'skayr
I think Cartoon Network REALLY DIED in 2022.
CN died when gumball and the ben 10 reboot ended
Well, Maxwell Atoms is a ugly disgrace to John R Dilwroth.
He deserved to get fired for being such a disgrace to John R Dilwroth.
Right
We bare bears is ass bro
L opinion honestly, We bare bears has to be one of the best slice of life Cartoon Network had to offer within the mess of the Dimensional era. Might not be your thing but it was a good show to tune your mind off from the ass that was Teen Titans Go.
