New post: Animation cable channels ratings continued their decline in 2025, though somewhat less bad versus 2024?

Again, everything's shifted to streaming: cable networks are largely on autopilot, with Disney, WB, Paramount, etc. either focused on streaming, caught up in corporate nonsense, or creatively checked out.

Animation cable channels viewership continues to decline in 2025

Animation related cable channels, like cable as a whole, continued to decline in viewership in 2025.

As I wrote before, the most popular cartoons from this decade are either non-American ("Bluey", anime), or from smaller studios/streaming ("KPop Demon Hunters," "Invincible," "Hazbin Hotel").

Throw in the lack of new all ages material (that aren't holdovers from pre-2020 or reboots of same) on top of that: what do kids watch when they're too old for "Paw Patrol," but too young for "Rick and Morty?" Maybe why kids have turned to Netflix and YouTube...
