Hey guys, today I got a very special email from Turner Broadcasting about this year’s Cartoon Network upfront: now what you are about to see is the official thing from them. Check back soon, because all of our thoughts on the upfront will be revealed soon on Not Another Old Cartoon Podcast! But for now just ooh and ahh over the exciting announcements!

Before I get into this, I want to make some things clear:

  1. This list is in no particular order. For the same reason my reviews don’t have a rating system of any kind, I just find it hard to label something as being “this high” on a scale. I always end up regretting my decision later, like I did with my first review back in 2007. So please assume all these shows are equally great in my eyes, but in their own special ways.
  2. I haven’t seen every new animated series out there. If I haven’t watched every domestic animated series that premiered in 2010, then there is no way I could have watched every single new series from Japanese, England, France, etc. That just isn’t happening. This is a list of what I deem to be the best shows I’ve seen this year.

So, I think you people remember that in Cartoon Network’s Codename: Kids Next Door pilot, kids weren’t even allowed to even touch the water during the adult’s swim time.

I believe that the renewal and cancellation of shows are one of the most intense parts of television, and also one of the most interesting. Today, I’m going to take a look at several of Cartoon Network’s current shows, and have a guess as to whether they’ll be renewed or canceled.

In the pilot episode of Cartoon Network’s popular series Codename: Kids Next Door, the KND crew catch wind of an extended adult swim time and proceed to free the pool of it’s dictators in order to restore the natural order of the pool. How ironic that in 2011 Cartoon Network will tell the kids to get out of the pool as early as 9PM eastern and pacific time and 8PM in central and mountain time zones. Their highly successful adult targeted segment Adult Swim will expand another hour into Cartoon Network’s precious prime time hours. Where are the Kids Next Door when you need them?
