As some of you might know, Cartoon Network has sadly closed its doors in the last few years. The once legendary channel has been ruined by the internet and kids will no longer get to know the joy that came from the creators of that TV studio. To think that they were responsible for such classics as the Power Puff Girls, Dexter's Lab, Courage the Cowardly Dog, Johnny Bravo and so many more is mind-blowing.

Especially if you compare them to the Italian brain rot we are seeing today. So we wanted to take a moment to ignore the ignorance of the present and take a moment to revisit the past that we so loved with this list of Cartoon Network classics we are still quoting today.
