      Maybe they can keep and reuse the old CN City bumpers while make new bumpers for new show instead of making a new one completely.
      CN City bumper still looks great and has aged greatly even it from 2004, so they could've kept the CN City era for a bit longer till in late 2008 when the Noods era debuted.

    I guess it’s relatively short time on air (as well as what followed it) is why I have almost no memory of CN City.
    Seriously, upon seeing your poll, I had no idea what CN city was (and still have no idea what that “check it” thing is. But upon watching this I’m now recalling very vague memories of it.
    I have very strong memories of the powerhouse era and have always believed it was CN at its peak. Maybe I’d have appreciated CN City a bit more if I remembered more of it, but in my mind it’s like, we had the powerhouse era, and after that CN just kinda fell off the wagon.

      @Childishju  Місяць тому +1

      No I completely understand where you’re coming from. The powerhouse era was incredible and it brought us so many things, so I can understand powerhouse standing out over the other eras.

    2:33 Thats not an accurate description of the era. There were MANY variations of the "coming up next" bumpers. The buff man was just one out of like 15. On top of that, the character bumpers were mainly original animations created specifically for the bumper. There were a few recycled scenes, but they were all original for the most part.

      Yeah I’m aware that there were many different bumpers, and I appreciate y’all for calling that out but I really just mentioned what was most nostalgic to me personally. If this video was about the powerhouse era I would have went into far more detail about everything that came of it. But this video wasn’t about that (I’m sure I’ll make a powerhouse video eventually) it was about CN city. So of course the other eras aren’t gonna get as much detail when I’m talking about them in a video that wasn’t made for them. Hope that clears things up a little. No need to argue we’re all animation fans at the end of the day:)

    As much as I love and admired the powerhouse era, CN city just like multiverse and avengers infinity war had took many fans to a place where it’s like a dream to which you wish you can be a part in to what the channel was made for, until the yes era made a person feel like they were about to have a seizure every time cheese and Fredburger pop up like they overstayed their welcome. If Jim samples had never stepped down due to the Boston bombscare of hype for aqua teen hunger force, CN city could’ve gone much longer.

    Another reason why Cartoon Network Abandon CN City is because the Cartoon Network Studio Headquarters was shut down by Warner Bros Discovery back in August 2023.

    • @kentarom2de945
      @kentarom2de945 Місяць тому +5

      That makes no sense because the CN City era was discontinued in April 2, 2006 in it's primary branding and in May 31, 2007 in it's secondary branding. Which is 16-17 years before Cartoon Network Studio moved to a new building.
      And the CN City bumpers were made by Animal Logic, not Cartoon Network Studio. So it was unrelated to that.

    • @Sean-132
      @Sean-132 Місяць тому +4

      First off, the studio didn’t shut down, they moved to a new building.
      Second, WBD has nothing to do with CN building situation.
      This was a decision made by the previous management of WB back when they were known as “WarnerMedia” and the person who made this decision is named Jason Kilar. And the new building did took 3 years to construct
      Plus, Brian A. Miller said on twitter that they were paying rent for the Burbank building for 20 years which is probably one of the reasons why they want to move.
