View Full Version : Report: Despite its renewal, Cartoon Network’s Uncle Grandpa is actually ending
http://deadline.com/2016/03/steven-universe-uncle-grandpa-renewed-cartoon-network-season-five-1201728861/
The animated series was picked up last week for a fifth season, but Cartoon Brew says the announcement was “disingenuous” and a “savvy way to spin bad news” when, in fact, the show’s crew is being laid off.
Hawkee 04-08-2016, 01:28 AM The reason why Cartoon Network is cancelling some of their cartoons is because they are focusing on many of their new cartoons such as the revival of The Powerpuff Girls and We Bare Bears and it is a surprise that Uncle Grandpa is being canceled because it's been a hit for Cartoon Network and it has a lot of fans but what I think what will happen to Uncle Grandpa's 5th Season is that Cartoon Network will release it on DVD or perhaps make a spin-off cartoon series of Uncle Grandpa because since it's still a huge hit a Uncle Grandpa spin-off cartoon would be fun to see

Love it!
tlc38tlc38 05-01-2016, 08:19 AM I know this has been said many times before but I wish CN and Boomerrang would air older cartoons from the 50s-90s.
With the popularity of the new TMNT, I'm surprised Nick Doesn't show the 90s version (which is ten times better) but I guess they want people to totally forget about the old and only watch the new.
Svenfan1234 05-01-2016, 09:16 AM There are some good CN shows like Steven Universe, The Amazing World of Gumball and We Bare Bears. Also, Nick has Harvey Beaks which is good and coming soon The Loud House.

As much as it pains me to say it, I'm sure part of the reason is that the 1987 version is sort of dated (with its heavy dose 80s and early 90s pop culture references and fashion faux pas). Not sure how well it would go over with today's kids, which is a consideration when trying to also attract advertisers.
Also, they may have to pay royalties to the producers and voice actors of the 1987 series as well.
