Brining Back Classic Cartoon Network & Nickelodeon Shows?
Recently The Washington Post supposedly posted an online article stating that Cartoon Network Inc. and Nickelodeon Studios had posted an online community poll requesting feedback on improving their broadcasting techniques and the content that they now support, which would eventually improve ratings and there for profits. Also during this study voters and or fans of the companies ask the following question "What about bringing back some of your previous content and the old shows we all know, love and grew up watch - CaterJP567" which supposedly lead to the two boards thinking and speculating if they should indeed bring certain shows and or content back. Now for those who don't know these two companies or needs some background and light on the situation:
Cartoon Network (abbreviated CN, corporately known as The Cartoon Network, Inc.) is an American cable television network created by Turner Broadcasting which primarily shows animated programming.
The original series and the Time Warner acquisition
The network's first original show was The Moxy Show and was first aired in 1993. In 1994, Hanna-Barbera's new subsidiary Cartoon Network Studios was founded and started production on The What-A-Cartoon! Show (also known as World-Premiere Toons and "What-A-Cartoon"), a series of creator-driven short cartoons that premiered on Cartoon Network in 1995.[4] It was the network's third original series (the second wasSpace Ghost Coast to Coast). The project was spearheaded by several Cartoon Network executives, plus The Ren & Stimpy Show creator John Kricfalusi (who was an advisor to the network at the time) and Fred Seibert (who was formerly one of the driving forces behind the Nicktoons, and would go on to produce the similar animation anthology series Oh, Yeah! Cartoons and Random Cartoons).[5]
The chief purpose of The What A Cartoon Show was to help Cartoon Network expand its library of exclusive programming and it introduced a number of new cartoon ideas. Six of them were spun off into their own series runs. These six series, Dexter's Laboratory (1996), Johnny Bravo, Cow and Chicken (1997), The Powerpuff Girls (1998), Mike, Lu & Og, and Courage the Cowardly Dog (1999) became the origins of the network's original cartoons, collectively known as Cartoon Cartoons.[4]I Am Weasel (1997) and Ed, Edd n Eddy (1999) were the first two Cartoon Cartoons not to be introduced in a What A Cartoon short.[4]
In 1996, Turner merged with Time Warner.[6] This consolidated ownership of all the WB cartoons, so now post-July 1948 and the former Sunset-owned black-and-white cartoons (which Warner Brothers had reacquired in the 1960s) releases were being shown on the network. Newer animated productions by WB also started appearing on the network—mostly reruns of shows that had aired on Kids' WB, plus certain new programs such as Justice League.
Cartoon Network's programming would not be available in Canada until 1997, when a Canadian specialty network Teletoon (and its French language counterpart) was launched.[citation needed]
Cartoon Network underwent its makeover in 1997, launching the Power House era until June 13, 2004. The channel used bumpers involving characters from most of the cartoons it aired with the Powerhouse music, or just objects and places with the Cartoon Network's logo at that time. The Powerhouse music was no longer used starting in 2003.
--------------------------
Nickelodeon (usually abbreviated as "Nick", and originally named Pinwheel from December 1, 1977 to March 31, 1979), is an American cable television networkowned by MTV Networks, a subsidiary of Viacom International. The channel is primarily aimed at children ages 6–14, with the exception of their weekday morning program block aimed at preschoolers ages 2–5. Since 2006, Nickelodeon has been run by MTVN Kids & Family Group president Cyma Zarghami.
As of 2010, Nickelodeon is ranked as the #1 cable channel among the kids 2-11 and 6-11 demographics, outranking competitors Disney Channel and Cartoon Network.[1] For most of its history, the channel had been promoted as "The First Kids' Network," as Nickelodeon was the first American television network aimed at children, dating back to its days under the Pinwheel name.
Nickelodeon's broadcast day runs on Sunday through Thursdays from 7 a.m.-8 p.m., Fridays from 7 a.m.-9 p.m. and Saturdays from 7 a.m.-10 p.m. (Eastern andPacific Time). It shares its channel space with Nick at Nite, a nighttime channel/programming block airing mainly sitcom reruns, created in 1985, that airs during the interim hours and is treated as a separate channel from Nickelodeon by A.C. Nielsen Co. for ratings purposes.[2][3] The two services are sometimes referred to under the collective name "Nickelodeon/Nick at Nite", due to their association as two individual channels sharing the same channel space.
By October 1990, Nickelodeon was seen in 52 million homes across the United States[citation needed] . In 1990, Nickelodeon opened Nickelodeon Studios, a television studio/attraction at Universal Studios Florida inOrlando which many of its sitcoms and game shows were filmed and entered into a multimillion-dollar joint marketing agreement with international restaurant chain Pizza Hut, which involved launching Nickelodeon Magazine,[citation needed] available for free at participating Pizza Hut restaurants.[9] In 1991, for the first time, Nickelodeon developed its first animated series, Doug, Rugrats, and The Ren and Stimpy Show. These series, known as Nicktoons, premiered on August 11, 1991.[10] The network had previously refused to produce weekly animated series due to high cost.[10] The three Nicktoons found success by 1993, while in mid-1993, Nickelodeon developed its fourth Nicktoon, Rocko's Modern Life, which was also a success along with the three other Nicktoons. Later, Nickelodeon partnered with Sony Wonder and released top selling video cassettes of the show's programming.[11] By 1994, Doug ended production and on May 22, 1994, Rugrats was in a production hiatus, but Rocko's Modern Life and The Ren and Stimpy Show were still in production and airing. In mid-1996, Nickelodeon developed two new Nicktoons, KaBlam! and Hey Arnold! which would take the place of Rocko's Modern Life and The Ren and Stimpy Show since they would both end production about that time, but still would air reruns up until about 2001. Rugrats, on the other hand, returned from hiatus on May 9, 1997 (reruns continued to air up until that point). In 1998, The Rugrats Moviecame out. The movie grossed more than $100 million in the United States and became the first non-Disney animated movie to ever earn that much. Then in 1999, the channel debuted the animated seriesSpongeBob SquarePants, which quickly became one of the most popular Nicktoons in the network's history, and has remained very popular to this day, consistently ranking as the channel's highest-rated series since the early 2000s.[12]
In August 1992, the channel extended its Saturday schedule to 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. ET with the launch of a primetime block called SNICK, which was home to shows such as Are You Afraid of the Dark?, Clarissa Explains It All, All That, The Amanda Show and Kenan & Kel; in 2004, the block was reformatted as the Saturday edition of TEENick (which originally debuted on Sunday evenings in 2000), and the Saturday night block continues today without a name (the TEENick branding, with its spelling altered to TeenNick, has since been used on the Nicklelodeon sister channel previously known as The N). In June 1993, Nickelodeon resumed its magazine brand, Nickelodeon Magazine.[13] In 1994, Nickelodeon removed You Can't Do That on Television from its schedule after thirteen years and by the same year the network had launched a new sketch comedy show, All That. For many years, until its cancellation in 2005, All That would launch the careers of many actors and actresses including Kenan Thompson, Amanda Bynes, and Jamie Lynn Spears. The show's executive producer, Dan Schneider, would go on to create and produce several hit series for Nickelodeon including The Amanda Show, Drake & Josh,Zoey 101, iCarly and Victorious, among others.

So the situation in the end has indeed started a lot of speculation and I'm sure the two companies will indeed give the fans, and families what they want and bring back that classic feel a lot of us know and loved.
In closing there have been rumors and supposed interview with some of the staff from both companies stating "You guys asked for it and since we love the fans we are giving you guys what you want, new seasons of most of you alls favorite classic shows have already underway, no promises due the the fact a lot of the original supports have gone under but keep your eyes open in late 2011"
