Cartoon Network Website Shut Down, Now Redirects to Max

As a child of the ’90s and early 2000s, I grew up with Cartoon Network as my beloved companion during countless afternoons and sleepless nights. From the adventurous journeys of Ed, Edd n Eddy to the thrilling escapades of Sam and Fiona in Adventure Time, Cartoon Network was more than just a TV channel – it was a world that sparked my imagination, fostered my creativity, and provided endless hours of entertainment.


The original website of Cartoon Network no longer operates, instead leading users to the Max streaming service. For years, Cartoon Network has been a hub for popular animated series on television. However, in recent times, there’s been a significant change. With the closure of Cartoon Network Studios and speculation about the network’s future, it appears that Warner Bros. Discovery is reorganizing their Cartoon Network productions under Warner Bros. Animation. This restructuring means that some aspects of Cartoon Network’s history may be overlooked or lost.

The Cartoon Network’s main website is no longer active; instead, it directs you to their Max library for streaming. A message appears saying, “Want to watch episodes of your beloved Cartoon Network series? Explore what’s available on Max (subscription needed). Sign up now and set up a Kids Profile to ensure age-appropriate content and enhanced privacy settings. If you’re a cable subscriber, carry on enjoying your favorite CN shows on TV and associated apps!”

What’s Next for Cartoon Network?

In a statement given to Variety, Cartoon Network explained their shift in strategy: “We are concentrating on our Cartoon Network programs and social media platforms where we see consumers are most actively involved and offer significant opportunities for expansion.” They also assured that their cable broadcast schedule will remain. Over the past few years, fans may have observed this transition becoming increasingly apparent. Not only has Adult Swim extended its programming into earlier hours on Cartoon Network (achieving success due to nostalgic programming from the Checkered Past block), but certain projects have even been fully transferred to Adult Swim.

1. The shutdown of the Cartoon Network website implies the disappearance of numerous streaming options from there, which are not yet accessible via Max. Even though enthusiasts of these specific productions may find their news and updates elsewhere, the site was also a platform to showcase what Cartoon Network offers at present.

As focus moves towards Max, it’s important to note that due to the dynamic characteristics of digital media, cable channels may be switching frequently. Unfortunately, this shift is a part of the experience that channel viewers must adapt to for the time being.
