Lets face it: there aren't that many ideas left out there for good new cartoons, and all the old good ones can't go on forever. Cartoon network is now producing crap (save for adventure time, thats some goooood cartoon) and reruns.

However, while they got boring, I don't hate them, because they had the decency to actually end there better shows before they ruined them (ended Ed, Edd, and Eddy perfectly, may it live in infamy) unlike nickelodeon, which is producing crap and ALSO WHORING THERE SHIT INTO A SHALLOW GRAVE. They ruined spongebob, god dammit...

But yeah, I'll miss you toonami

While it will never get back to the Golden Age of Cartoonetwork, (Samurai Jack, Megas XLR, Toonami) Adventure Time is actually pretty good. A few days ago I fell upon MAD and was pleasantly surprised that it wasn't completely horrible.
Well sure, as that saying goes, even a blind squirrel finds a nut eventually. However, just wait, it won't be too long before Cartoon Network has their own line of teen "popstars".

It just seems like cartoons are "going out of style" for some reason. All the channels that used to show some pretty good cartoons that not only kids, but adults as well could enjoy, like Disney and Nickelodeon, are just aiming for these stupid reality shows now. Geez, Toon Disney didn't even last long and I'm surprised Nicktoons Network is still going. A lot of animators today must be out of a job.

The reality shows wouldn't be too bad if they were actually GOOD. I mean, Hannah Montana and her ilk have nothing on shows like Boy Meets World.

Holy crap...Foster's was AMAZING.

I stopped watching AS when Tim and Eric was aired. I watched 10 minutes into it and thought the world was ending because only during the End of Days would something that horrible...that stupid...and that gross be allowed to see the light of day.
I'll always have a soft spot for AS though because it introduced me to Anime. Back when they had actual adult swim intros and exits it was GOOD.

Ever since the death of Toonami, the only time I even glance at Cartoon Network is when Adult Swim comes on.
What this fellah said. When Toonami was gone, I shut off the TV and whenever my brother is on the channel, I immediately change it.

Okay so I looked up on youtube for a show called mengas XLR, and found that a guy had put the entire series up about 1 month ago. I was so happy. I saw every episode but the last 4. today I was going to finish seeing it but it turns out Cartoon network called copy right. I know they have the right to do that but the show lasted a little more than a year, and there was never a dvd released. To add to the pain, I found out that this show has an ending unlike most cartoon network shows that just get cancelled. Has cartoon network done anything to make you hate them.
Megas XLR is dead set on of the best cartoons I've ever seen in my entire life. But seriously, have you ever heard of torrents? I've had the entire show for years.

As for CN, Australia's CN is fucking garbage. The only redeeming feature was Adult Swim in the after hours of the night, where you could watch decent anime, and other shit like Venture Bros.

2 years ago, Aus CN SOLD Adult Swim to the Comedy Channel so fox subscribers would have to pay an extra 30 dollars just for the package to watch it. This included all my favourite shows including one Venture Bros.

It took 6 months for even Comedy to start showing adult swim, and by the time they did, all they showed of the 30 program roster was about 5 shows- they bought out all the animes and comedy programs from Adult Swim and only showed about 5 which were worthwhile to them. Meanwhile, CN has become a big fucking pussball of childrens shit.

Good move guys!

It sorta died in 2006, really. It's clearly TRYING to get better...but it isn't really succeeding.

One word: "Bang."

Those who know their Cowboy Bebop will know what I mean.

The actor who voiced TOM also voiced Spike Spiegel in the English dub of Cowboy Bebop. "Bang" is the last word of both TOM and Spike. In short: CN sucks now because they cancelled Toonami.
Dude, that guy has a voice in just about everything,

Adventure Time, Regular Show, and Chowder are the only reason I watch Cartoon Network. Adult Swim... Eh. Wish Aqua Teen ran earlier.

lol seriously. I think Steve Blum has had SOME kind of role, whether big or small, in 90% of the cartoons I've ever watched, when I first heard he did the voice of Guilmon in one of the Digimon animes I seriously couldn't believe it, never would have guessed. Love his voice and the main reason I loved TOM from Toonami.

For one of the primary forces that popularized it in the west, they don't seem to be doing a terribly good job with anime now; Bakugan will leave you longing for the days of 4kids-dubbed Yugioh, and their best is reruns shown very late on Saturday nights.

edit: Also: Why do they play Tom and Jerry but not the Looney Tunes!? Everything Tom and Jerry have done was also done by the Looney Tunes only better. Cartoon Network is also showing live action shows. You are Cartoon Network, a network for cartoons! It's really hard to screw that up and yet there you go!
Wait, they don't show Looney Tunes anymore? That was my Saturday morning diet!

Also agreed on the live-action part. Seriously, even disregarding the whole Cartoon Network thing, Nick does a far better job with live-action kids shows; at least iCarly works as a guilty pleasure, far more than can be said about Unnatural History.

To list some positive things, however, Regular Show and Adventure Time are pretty awesome from what I've seen, and the new Scooby-Doo is far better than I ever expected the series to get.

Cartoon Network sucked when they stopped showing Looney Toons and the original Scooby Doo, then taunted us with it for a month or two before getting rid of it after the holiday season last year. And even more so now that they apparently replaced King of the Hill which is supposed to be on now and isn't. :mad:

I saw Slam Ball on there one day (basket ball with trampolines for anyone that doesn't know what Slam Ball is). I mean I love Slam Ball, but on CN, seriously!?

Cartoon network was amazing back in the day, so oh...... 5, 8 years ago maybe?

man, all thats left is shit now. They killed all the good shows. Edd ed and eddy, courage the cowardly dog, Dexters laboratory, all the gpood stuff...

there are plenty of reasons, but a big on is that back in the 90ies when those shows were made, people didn't try to be politically correct. the thought came up in thee 20th century, and its ruined TV.

I used to hate cartoonnetwork.

Rebranding themselves CN and producing a bunch of shitty reality shows at a time when all I wanted was to laugh at a couple of good cartoons like the olden days. However they are recovering, and after releasing courage the cowardly dog on DVD I'm prepared to call it even.
HOLY FUCK ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
