A Saturday-morning cartoon is the colloquial term for the animated television programming that was typically scheduled on Saturday mornings in the United States on most major Television networks from the 1960s through the present day. The genre's popularity declined in the 1990s and 2000s after cable and satellite television, and later the Internet, began providing 24-hour access to cartoons for children. The format continued in a reduced manner through the present day as a way of meeting educational television mandates.

  • A Saturday-morning cartoon is the colloquial term for the animated television programming that was typically scheduled on Saturday mornings in the United States on most major Television networks from the 1960s through the present day. The genre's popularity declined in the 1990s and 2000s after cable and satellite television, and later the Internet, began providing 24-hour access to cartoons for children. The format continued in a reduced manner through the present day as a way of meeting educational television mandates. In the United States, the generally accepted times for these and other children's programs to air on Saturday mornings were from 8 a.m. to noon Eastern Time. Until the late 1970s, American networks also had a schedule of children's programming on Sunday mornings, though most programs at this time were repeats of Saturday morning shows that were already out of production. In some markets, some shows were pre-empted in favor of syndicated or other types of Local programming. cable television networks have since revived the practice of debuting their most popular animated programming on Saturday mornings.
