I guess with the advent of Cartoon Network, Nickelodeon, Sprout and other specialized TV channels the powers that be decided it was no longer needed.
Sad really. I miss Bugs Bunny cartoons. CN usually has a June Bugs marathon in June, but that’s about it. Unless I find them online some place.
I miss the tradition there though, I wish network honchos had a little more of a sentimental heart.
