I think the Cartoon Network started to suck when I started to grow out of it. I am only talking about Cartoon Network. Think about it, CN is made to cater to the 1-10 age group mainly. It got boring for me when Dexter's Labratory became too goofy. Tom and Jerry is still very classic.
I think that Adult Swim is not 100% either. I mean mind offending shows like The Boondocks and Tim and Eric Awesome Show try to make believers laugh (and I am guilty of laughing at at least Tim and Eric) through ridiculous stupidity. I just dont like the Boondocks because its all in jive, and I dont want to be racist about it. Its like black anime - blackime. Tim and Eric is just like it but its live action and for white people, and makes stupid songs or ridiculous pointless skits that just make you keep waiting to laugh. Thats what I feel. Give me a hour and a half of Family Guy, Futurama and some decent original like ATHF or even Tom Goes to The Mayor until I watch Conan. Then all you Anime people can have your stuff. Hell they could even air the Boondocks, I just dont want to watch a show I have to translate.

Hey, at least it has Transformers: Animated. That show is fucking amazing.
As for everything else besides that and the Death Note dub, the network itself sucks.

Man, I saw an episode of Samurai Jack last night and almost cried. We should write a letter and get them to play all the old cartoons!

I don't understand live-action shows on a channel called CARTOON Network.

That's because most American cartoonist are going to Japan to draw Hentai.

Maybe I never gave it a proper chance but the only shows I enjoyed on their were Futurama or Family Guy.
I kept hearing ATHF was this badass show but I guess its really didnt appeal to me for some reason

I like adult swim sometimes. Also when I was growing up I loved Ed, Edd, and Eddy.
But i agree it sucks 90% of the time

Haven't seen it, but the art style reminds me of Clone High.

Oh man, I love Chowder; it ranks up there with The Grimm Adventures of Billy and Mandy as one of the funniest shows out. The Mis Adv. of Flapjack is also very good.

When they butchered the hell out of Gundam: SEED and then canceled it outright, canceled Samurai Jack, brought in all of these stupid shows like that one with the samurai puppets, then promoted the hell out of shit like Naruto. These days, the only time I catch Cartoon Network (aside from watching Venture Bros., Metalocalypse, and Code Geass online) is when my little brother and sister are watching TV. I do enjoy Chowder and The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack, though.

When network shows were better than premium. That's when. Woot!

Cartoon Network sucked as soon as most of their original series like Dexter's Lab, I Am Weasel, Cow & Chicken, Johnny Bravo, Ed Edd n Eddy, Courage the Cowardly Dog, The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy, Samurai Jack, Megas XLR etc. were either dropped or turned lame. Then anime like Dragon Ball, DBZ, and Yu Yu Hakusho were dropped in favor of bullshit like Naruto, One Piece, Hikaru no Go etc. that's only interesting for five minutes or if you're new to the whole animey thing.
Flapjack kicks ass though.
Edit: Also, I'm pretty sure I heard that Cartoon Network would air Zeta Gundam and they never did. Fucking lamers.
