"I'm so excited for the final episodes of Steven Universe Future to be out in the world, and so grateful to our audience for supporting our show for all these years. It has been an eye-opening experience to meet the community that has come together around the show: I have been so moved, and I have felt so seen. I have always been a firm believer in the power of cartoons, and these days it's undeniable: the friendships forged over this show, the artists inspired to draw, the families that watched together and saw each other in these characters, fill me with awe and renew my love of animation every day. Though our epilogue series is coming to a close, please trust that like us, these characters will always be growing, changing, and supporting each other. From the bottom of my heart, thank you so much for watching our show." -Rebecca Sugar, creator, Steven Universe "Steven Universe broke ground for young audiences with a rich representation of diverse and fully realized characters, unique original music, and for its use of empathy as a story driver.

| "ThunderCats Roar" Premieres on Cartoon Network Starting Saturday, Feb. 22 at 10:30 a.m. (ET/PT) The time has finally come to hear the roar! The all-new, animated sci-fi action comedy series, ThunderCats Roar, debuts on Cartoon Network beginning Saturday, Feb. 22 at 10:30 a.m (ET/PT). Staying true to the premise of the original series, the new, redesigned characters will introduce the legacy of Thundercats to a whole new generation. Watch the first two episodes streaming NOW on the CN app. See the episodic list below: Saturday, Feb. 22 at 10:30 a.m: "Exodus Part 1 & 2 '" *HALF-HOUR SPECIAL* Fleeing the destruction of their home planet Thundera, Lion-O and the ThunderCats land on the mysterious, dangerous, all-around awesome world of Third Earth! Saturday, Feb 29 at 10:30 a.m.: "The Legend of Boggy Ben" Lion-O has gotten a hold of the last jar of Thundersnaps, the best cookies Thundera had to offer! But a difficult to open cookie jar is gonna send Lion-O and Cheetara chasing down a legend, a Boggy Ben-related legend. "Prank Call" Lion-O wants to prove to the ThunderKittens that he's not just some boring old adult, like Tygra, even if it means ignoring his instincts and messing with an obviously evil crystal. Meet the ThunderCats! LION-O The newly appointed Lord of the ThunderCats, Lion-O, is always ready to act on instinct, even when there's literally nothing to act on. From the gravest of dangers to the most innocuous chore he applies the same blindly heroic exuberance. He might not have all the training he needs yet, but he's sure he's ready for anything. PANTHRO Enthusiastic engineer, Panthro, who constantly has a million science projects going at once, always needs someone to test his new tech in the field. And after (barely passing his driving exam) it seems the eager Lion-O will do the job just fine! Panthro isn't worried about Lion-O, but fingers crossed his creations come back in one piece! CHEETARA Tough but cheerful, Cheetara, laughs in the face of danger and is always looking for the next thrill. She feels a little like Lion-O's older sister and is eager to throw him into the action, even if he gets in over his head. Maybe her idea of fun is a little extreme, but who wouldn't go along with her?! She's like a Thunderian legend of coolness! MUMM-RA For all the good on Third Earth, there is one great evil. Mumm-Ra, a once tyrannical emperor, has been waiting under the surface for millennia. But with the arrival of the Sword of Omens, Mumm-Ra sees a chance to grab at power once more! Using the last bits of evil strength and every trick he can think of, he tries to outsmart the ThunderCats, but without the power of the sword he must always return to his crypt to regenerate. WILYKIT AND WILYKAT BFF's WilyKat and WilyKit are the youngest of the gang and they're enjoying the luxury of childhood as long as they can! That ISN'T to say they don't like a bit of action and excitement though. They love running around on their own and getting into trouble in the unexplored neighborhood. Lion-O tried to lead a good example, but really he just wants to run around with them and have stupid fun! TYGRA Tygra considers himself a kind of father figure to the ThunderCats. He has more experience and knows the ins and outs of their Thunderian culture better than anyone so of course it's his responsibility to teach Lion-O and make him the best leader he can be. But all that pressure gets to him and he's become a little stuck up. Maybe some fine dining will be the relaxing escape he needs. |

Craig of the Creek promises more offbeat adventures from the everyday group of neighborhood friends, while the mythically adventurous Victor and Valentino continues with another season of myths, mysteries and mayhem. Victor and Valentino received its first Imagen Award nomination in the category of Best Children's Programming for its creativity and talent that reflect the mission of the Imagen Foundation.
The Fungies! was developed as part of Cartoon Network Studios' international Artists Program, and introduces Seth, a lovable mushroom kid who lives in prehistoric Fungietown and loves science and discovery. In his search for the ultimate adventure, Seth often finds himself causing hilarious problems for the utopia and its colorful inhabitants - but as he comes up with a solution, Seth always finds a newfound emotional understanding. The Fungies! is expected to debut next year.
Craig's quest to map the Creek leads him further into unexplored territory in season three of Craig of the Creek. Craig and his two best friends, Kelsey and JP, meet new Creek Kids, uncover more clues to the Creek's ancient past and encounter more dangers from the nefarious Other Side of the Creek. Annie Award-nominee and Common Sense Seal for TV honoree, the show's suburban wilderness explorations are brought to life by a crew that meshes their own diverse experiences into an imaginative series where children rule over tree forts and bike ramps.
The second season of Victor and Valentino returns next year for more myths, mysteries, and mayhem. The Lonely Haunts Club gets back together as rivals Charlene and Pineapple join Victor and Valentino to hunt for ghosts around Monte Macabre. Victor and Valentino discover the world of the dead inside Monte Macabre, helping some of them to resolve old business and cross over to the Underworld. The series first premiered in the United States and Latin America simultaneously earlier this year and is inspired by creator Molano's fascination with mythology and Mesoamerican culture. Molano was also discovered through the studio's global Artists Program known for creating a pipeline of diverse and emerging talent. New episodes from the first season continue to air everywhere on Cartoon Network including the app and VO.

Steven Universe
Series creator Rebecca Sugar and Estelle (voice of Garnet) kicked off Cartoon Network's slate by participating in a Superheroes of Body Positivity panel in partnership with the Dove Self-Esteem Project. Attendees watched an inspiring discussion between Sugar, Estelle, Sophie Galvani, Jess Weiner and moderator Erica Joy Baker on the importance of body positivity and representation in both the real and animated world.
On Saturday, the Steven Universe cast and crew hosted a panel showcasing highlights from the series and special cast moments from the past year, as well as a surprise screening of an upcoming episode of Steven Universe. To cap off the panel, fans went wild when moderator Shelby Rabara (voice of Peridot) introduced a teaser announcing Steven Universe: The Movie is coming soon to Cartoon Network.
Garnet, Amethyst, Pearl and Steven also flew high atop Cartoon Network's Steven Universe-themed booth all weekend long.
Adventure Time
Fans flocked to say farewell to beloved series Adventure Time on Friday, and were treated to various musical performances by their favorite characters - including Finn and Jake (Jeremy Shada and John DiMaggio), Marceline (Olivia Olson), Princess Bubblegum (Hynden Walch), Ice King (Tom Kenny) and BMO (Niki Yang). Executive Producer Adam Muto and surprise guest Rebecca Sugar, who cut her teeth on Adventure Time, also joined the panel. There was not a dry eye in the house as the cast and crew shared their favorite memories from the series. Attendees were also shown a sneak peek and trailer for the series finale, which will air Monday, Sept. 3 at 6 p.m. (ET/PT) on Cartoon Network.
