Current Events > Do you believe CN (Cartoon Network) should close down?

(+) Yeah! (+)

The question is do you believe CN should close down? You can give your reasons why it should close down.

In my opinion I believe yes it should close down. It is just a shell of it former self, everything about CN is bad. The only DC cartoon they have is TTG, they don't have other DC cartoons.

No anime, only cartoons that are 10 minutes per episode, no super heroes cartoon, cheap low quality cartoon, awful schedule, CN sabotage to make certain cartoons fail, etc.

Many cartoons gets cancelled thanks to CN.

CN give certain cartoons extremely bad schedule like only air on Saturday at 06:30. Basically limited time slot.

Then there is also not airing certain cartoons and no rerun for a long time, basically CN trying to sabotage.

Then maybe return without notice.

I have no real opinion, since I'm not a part of the target demographic.

but if kids like how it's set up, then I don't think it should close down.

I don't really care. The only good things they've produced in a very long time now were Adventure Time and Infinity Train, but it doesn't cause any problem for me that they exist.

um.. well I stopped watching cartoon network like 15 years ago because I grew up. How old are you, and why do you still watch it?

CN+ to become a new streaming service

One doesn't have to be the target demographic to say if it is good or bad. I know many kids in the target demographic that finds CN bad, they just watch anime online and read manga.

CN gives cartoons a bad name.

Haven't watched CN in many years or decade. I quit around Ben 10 Reboot happened or PPG Reboot.

Do kids still enjoy it? Not sure if we are really the target audience.

Kids like Pokmon, kids buy those merchandise and games. Yet CN removed it.

CN doesn't care about target demographic or quality.

As for why I care that CN has become garbage? I guess I don't like the idea that one of the best channel has become garbage.

Edit there are cartoons that animator wanted to make, which CN didn't allow like the sequel of Kids Next Door.

Then I guess if they fail, they fail. Pretty sure target demo is what influences most of their decisions though, selling action figures etc.

I'm not going to pretend I'm above watching cartoons as an adult, I watch anime and a close friend of mine is having me watch The Owl House with her and it's pretty funny; but let's face it, fro every Avatar there was another show that didn't age as well or isn't as good as it was when we were kids.

If CN isn't going for an adult audience, just get your cartoons elsewhere. Personally, I don't mind if they just keep doing their own thing, if they make another cartoon with adult appeal some day great, not like I was watching anything else on Nick by the time Avatar was out and I heard it was worth watching. If they don't make anything else with broad appeal, that's life.

Yes. Its glory days are long passed.

ITT: People acting like they understand Tv executives and still think toy sales matter

Wishing they'd just close down is kinda weird, bro

Whys it even matter lol

If enough people are watching it, keep it on

If it's losing them money, shut it down

No reason to wish to shut things down because you don't like what changed, just change the channel and all your problems are solved

i haven't seen tv in so long i honestly forgot it was still a thing

CN has no respect for their animators and they have no respect for their viewers at all.
CN just sabotage anything they don't like, especially DC high quality cartoon so they make excuse that no one watches it. The only DC cartoon they don't sabotage or spam so much is TTG, which is low quality garbage.

The only reason CN is surviving nowaday is due to their name only, nowadays they are just a shell of their former self. They surviving due to nostalgia, for how good they were before, not because of how good they are now.

CN used to be the best, while now CN is just pathetic.

Some wanted to make their cartoon 20 minutes for special episode, which CN denied. The fact that 20 minutes is special is dumb.
The animator of Kids Next Door wanted to make a sequel, which CN denied.
Many cartoon got cancelled due to CN decisions in sabotage.

Just look at the cartoon board and see how CN continue to have terrible time schedule and CN cancelling cartoons just because. Then CN giving some cartoons trouble and doing whatever they want to sabotage.

All I can say is CN is a terrible network.

Anything that is CN exclusive cartoons, no way I will watch. CN will just screw around too much. Last CN cartoon I watched was Steven Universe and the insane amount of hiatus was crazy. That channel stopped watching it many years ago.

Iirc CN only has like 3 or 4 active cartoons right now. They definitely need to pick their shit up

That's the case with most cable channels

Sorry but CN doesn't get a free pass, assuming other networks are doing it also. They should be trying to make their network good.

CN in the past had variety of cartoon and anime. They allowed any time length for any cartoon and anime, it could be 5 minutes, 10 minutes and 20 minutes per episode.

Dragon Ball Super is huge, but since it is anime and 20 minutes then no it won't be on CN. Other anime that really popular still nothing.
DC cartoons are still popular, but they get cancelled on CN or don't make it on CN at all.

Right now CN only allows 10 minutes cartoons and no cartoon can exceed 10 minutes per episode.

There is a reason to shut down CN, when they give cartoons a bad name. They give a bad impression what the majority of cartoons are like.

CN has no respect for their animator and viewers, so even more reason to shut down.
