ABOVE: A sample of an OTL airing of
Acme Hour.
Acme Hour
Just like IOTL, the Acme Hour was pretty much the Cartoon Network's hour-long random assortment of cartoons that usually runs on weekdays.
Programming
Pre-1948 Warner Bros. cartoons (From the Turner library) [1]
Felix the Cat (Licensed from Carolco)
1933-57 Fleischer-Terry and Famous Studios Popeye cartoons (From the Turner library) [2]
1945-63 and 1985-90 Fox Movietoons (Licensed from 20th Century-Fox)
1943-47 Fleischer-Terry Little Lulu shorts
1937-58 Classic MGM Cartoons (From the Turner library)
1960's and 70's Pink Panther shorts
Walter Lantz and Famous Studios Woody Woodpecker cartoons (Licensed from Universal Studios)
Notes
[1] As of 2000, the Cartoon Network will take over Nickelodeon's long-standing license for the 1948-69 Warner Bros. cartoons, in exchange for The Jim Henson Company regaining key Hanna-Barbera properties to fill the void over at Nick. Warners' decision not to make the
Looney Tunes gang exclusive to Warner Freeform is mainly because the OTL vertical integration (IE stripping Nick and ABC to put everything on CN) dismantled the characters' dominance of children's television in the States.
[2] Most of the 1933-43 Fleischer-Terry Popeyes are colorized except for three "Color Feature" two-reel shorts. All Post-1943 Popeyes were produced by Fleischer-Terry and later Famous Studios in Technicolor.
