Cartoon Network (CN) is an American cable television channel and the flagship property of the Cartoon Network, Inc., a sub-division of the Warner Bros. Discovery Networks division of Warner Bros. Discovery. It launched on October 1, 1992.

Founded by Betty Cohen (who was also appointed by Ted Turner as the first president of the network), the channel primarily broadcasts animated television series, mostly children's programming, ranging from action to animated comedy. It currently runs from 6 a.m. to 5 p.m. ET/PT daily, though the sign-off time varies with holidays and special programming. Cartoon Network primarily targets children aged 6 to 12, while its early morning block Cartoonito is aimed at preschool-aged children, and evening block Adult Swim targets teenagers and young adults aged 13 to 34.

As of November 2023, Cartoon Network is available to approximately 66 million pay television households in the United States — down from its peak of 100 million households in 2011. (Full article...)

The fifth season of American animated television series Adventure Time, created by Pendleton Ward, originally aired on Cartoon Network in the United States. The series is based on a short produced for Frederator's Nicktoons Network animation incubator series Random! Cartoons. The season debuted on November 12, 2012. The season is scheduled to have around 52 episodes; this makes it twice the length of any of the previous seasons of the show. The season was storyboarded and written by Tom Herpich, Jesse Moynihan, Cole Sanchez, Rebecca Sugar, Steve Wolfhard, Skyler Page, Somvilay Xayaphone, Ako Castuera, Michael DeForge, Kent Osborne, David OReilly, Ward, Graham Falk, Thomas Wellmann, Luke Pearson, Seo Kim, and Ristaino. The season also featured OReilly and James Baxter as guest animators in the episodes "A Glitch is a Glitch" and "James Baxter the Horse", respectively. It was produced by Cartoon Network Studios and Frederator Studios. The series is rated TV-PG. The first episode of the fifth season was the two-parter episode "Finn the Human" and "Jake the Dog", both of which aired on November 12, 2012. The episode was viewed by 3.435 million viewers; this marked a dramatic increase from the previous season's premiere and finale. The season has been met with largely positive critical reception. In June 2013, the series was nominated for "Best Animated Series" at the 2013 Critics' Choice Television Awards, although it did not win.
