Cartoon Network recently turned Twitter nostalgic after reports of the channel being bought out by Warner Bros. While users believed this will be an end to the channel of the shows that previously aired, CN has clarified that they are not going anywhere. On Friday, many netizens took to social media to remember their childhood shows from The Flintstones, The Jetsons, The Powerpuff Girls, Dexter’s Laboratory, to Scooby-Doo.
Cartoon Network founded on October 1, 1992, has curated many fan-favourite shows over the decades including Popeye the Sailor, Bugs Bunny and the Looney Toons, Courage the Cowardly Dog, and Johnny Bravo.
Reminiscing one Twitter user said, “It’s an end of an era. End of our old childhood days. Don’t know why but this makes me little emotional. Thank you Cartoon Network for bringing smiles and joy back in the days." Meanwhile, another added, “It was always Cartoon Network over Disney and Nickelodeon for me."
