Cartoon Network
A product of Ted Turner's vast empire, Cartoon Network was a showcase channel for Hanna-Barbera's vast archive of classic animation. It became an instant powerhouse for cable in the 1990s, airing both older and new cartoons. The newer projects led to pioneering shows in their own right, amongst them Dexters Lab Cow and Chicken, Johnny Bravo, The Powerpuff Girls, and Samurai Jack
CN eventually expanded itself, creating blocks such as Toonami and helping to bring in a new lease of life for the anime movement. In 1998, the Toonami block broadcast the final five episodes of season two of Beast Wars, a welcome development since otherwise American fans would not have seen them for many months and would have been vulnerable to spoilers from Canadians. In 2002, CN revived He-Man for all of ten minutes, and also turned their heads towards Transformers, airing all three seasons of the Unicron Trilogy. They will serve as the distributors of Transformers Animated
Scooby-Dooby-Doo!
