Clone Wars is it for me, after that's done so am I. I refuse to pick up any new animated series after the mass cancellations of the past year.

That list is just sad to look at. Can't believe so much quality television is just being kicked to the curb.

WTF are kids even watching these days? Or are they even watching cartoons at all anymore? Too busy tweeting what Bieber ate for lunch?

Clone Wars will more than likely still be around. Since Disney owns Star Wars they are moving it to a Disney Channel. Cartoon Network has lost it.

That's the only thing saving it probably, because CN can't leave good shows alone.

The Thundercats reboot got cancelled too. I thought they did a good job with the art and story lines. Good cartoons are definitely dying out.

Samurai Jack ending four episodes before its conclusion, with promises FOR YEARS of a movie to end the brilliant/award-winning series, only for a movie to never be produced?

Infuriating.

At least the final season and its final episodes bring some closure to the series, but not the proper finish to the show. You don't have four more episodes mapped out, only to ditch them for a new series.

Almost a decade later, Genndy's still talking about finishing the series with a movie; DO IT already.

http://www.ign.com/articles/2012/09/...k-movie-update

Mako (voice of Aku) is now deceased, but there's ways around this... (it doesn't have to be said, but obviously notable mention of Mako's passing would be included in the credits).

Tartakovsky's taken a little heat in the vo/acting community for letting this sit for a while... but he's a brilliant guy, and really just a big kid, so much is forgiven.

.. and yeah, his two season Star Wars:CW series is still amazing.

Face it. Must mean a lot of kids aren't watching them and they can't live of geeky adults like us.

I bet kids would check them out if they were not only marketed correctly but put in time slots that make sense. Instead we get CN constantly shuffling things around to the point where only someone with knowledge of how to use a search feature on a DVR will catch these.

disappointing news, that new batman looks terrible but then again it will probably get cancelled like the other 5 shows before that. It's a shame because some of those were good but they never let it run it's course.

And samurai jack was awesome, i need to find that on dvd and have my kid watch it as he might like it.
