Man… back when all our favorite CN characters used to live all together in a amazing crossover paradise 🥺 I loved seeing these bumpers because it was nice seeing all these characters have slice of life moments when they don’t go into shenanigans or adventures 😊
I miss this city era of cartoon network. They truly need to go back to this era. I'm looking at this and I'm like: some of these I haven't seen before. I miss this animation style.
As far as I can tell from the list on the lost media wiki a couple of these haven't been uploaded yet or were lost, but I'm not lost media expert I'm just an idiot who knows how to use an iso with vlc.
The amount of care and creativity that went into these bumpers just shows how much the people running the network cared about its shows and audience. You don't see this kind of passion in entertainment nowadays.
Man, this takes me back to when we had channels like Cartoon Network, Nick Toons, Nickelodeon, toon Disney/JetX, and Disney Channel, and all of them were at their peak. Each channel had a show you had to watch now their either gone or a shell of their former selves.
I miss the days of making tough choices cause Cartoon Network had a new episode of Teen Titans but at the same time Nickelodeon also so had a new episode of Avatar the Last Airbender. but also JetX had Oban Star Racers coming on too. Ahh those were the days.
They lost it around the late 2010s. I was their target audience around 9-12 but I grew up watching 90s/early 2000s cartoons and games. I could tell the difference in quality and just stopped watching unless TAWOG was on.
@@Misty_kittyyy I remember when Cartoon Network was in their live action era with shows like dude what would happen and people hated it but I’d take that era over when they just started spamming Teen titans go.
Touches like this are what makes a good network GREAT. Obviously, having awesome shows is the main thing, but details like these are what makes networks stand out more and feel more homey. You don't get bumpers on Streaming.
Thank you youtube algorythm for reminding me of my childhood; still the best experience I ever had as a kid. I remember staying up late to watch the powerpuff girls during a marathon and the CN City slowly changed the time of day, so I got to see the girls wake up, go to school, play, save the day, get together for a film and then get read for bed and then sleep. All in 1 day of watching. It felt more real than CNReel (which was the time I decided to stop getting digital tv since Cartoon Network was the ONLY reason I had it at that point.) so I have no idea why they went that route. But going back to CNCity, after that; I wanted to see what other shows did the same; I managed to get the same experience for dexters lab, ed edd n eddy and fosters. I was working on TeenTitans and Grim Adventures before they pulled the plug, still good times.
I just love how the characters interact with the background it was extremely made well also these were the times when kids were actually kids and not on tablets or anything
Can you imagine what an AS City would've been like? I'd mainly imagine that'd it'd be the bad part of town. I can also picture these scenarios as bumpers: Brak playing hopscotch with Meatwad. Warden welcoming Rick into Superjail. Orel handing out religious flyers to bypassers, one of them being Nathan, who crumples up the flyer and tosses it. Early and Fitz drinking and trash-talking at a bar.
Dreams of an endless summer. Biggest worries were pop quizzes, lousy group projects, and getting home before the latest cartoon came on. I hope one day we can see that city again...even if it gets attacked by giant monsters.
wow cartoon network city sure takes me back when i was 13 years old this was my teenhood right here to bad cartoon network isn't the same anymore wish I could go back to 2004

I became reconnected with my younger self back in the summer of 2022, having logged off Facebook a month or so, after 10 years of not watching any cartoon because I felt silly about thrm because in 2011 my cousin who now looks and talks just like a gangster said cartoons are just for kids and something like mature people don't watch cartoons.
For those unaware, the chibi rockstar girls are from “Hi Hi Puffy Ami Yumi”, a cartoon series about a real Japanese band…which band? Why the girls sing the TeenTitans theme song!
Ah those were the days. I remember when I was either in my early elementary years or my kindergarten years? It was a looooong time ago. It's a cool concept though to see these Cartoon Network characters from different shows interact with one another. These bumpers are THE closest things you'll get to a Cartoon Network crossover
How many of you are either in their 30s or late 20s that wishes that this is the Cartoon Network that our kids and everyone else’s kids were watching today?
This helped me a lot, when i was a kid i was a scaredy lil shit and anytime my mind started to remember anything i was terrified of i was able to overwrite it with these comercials because the music was so engraved in my brain the images just came naturally with it

I always loved these bumpers so much, it actually inspired me to make a setting similar to this one but for anime called "Codename; Anime City". Admittedly it was a HUGE project of mine, but I wanted to create a setting where anime/video game characters from ALL walks of life lived on one world together and just.... did things together. A few examples were, a world where it's not too uncommon to see the colonies from Gundam in space along with having the heavily torn city of Roanapour exist as a place and even having both the Other World and Soul Society combined into one big place.
Ugh! I miss this era. Cartoon Network doesn’t have this level of creativity anymore…
I miss it too, the cartoons are still funny but the bumpers suck balls
I agree, this was the golden era of cartoon network
Yeah, me too
No they don’t
That's cause Cartoon Network doesn't exist anymore...
