Cartoon Network Studios

Cartoon Network Studios is an Animation studio. A subsidiary of the Turner Broadcasting System (an arm of the Time Warner media conglomerate), Cartoon Network Studios focuses on producing and developing animated programs for Cartoon Network. Some programming produced by Cartoon Network Studios has also been broadcast on the now-defunct Kids' WB, another Time Warner property.

The studio began in 1994 as a division of Hanna-Barbera Cartoons which was then focused on producing original programming for Cartoon Network, including latter-day Hanna-Barbera creations such as Dexter's Laboratory, Johnny Bravo, Cow and Chicken, I Am Weasel and The Powerpuff Girls. In 1997, the division's productions credited them as their parent studio Hanna-Barbera.

In 1999 Cartoon Network Studios acquired its own facility located at 300 N 3rd St in Burbank, California. The site was the location of a telephone communications equipment building.

In March 2001, the Hanna-Barbera name was dropped as a production entity and the H-B studio was folded into Warner Bros. Animation. Cartoon Network Studios was then revived as a separate entity from Hanna-Barbera, growing out of the animation studio. Cartoon Network Studios has continued to thrive with productions such as The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy and Samurai Jack and newer productions such as Chowder, The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack and Adventure Time. The company has also produced a CGI movie, Firebreather, and a non-animated series, Tower Prep.

Most of Cartoon Network Studios' shows from 1996—2001 now show as reruns on Cartoon Network's channel for classic TV cartoons, Boomerang.
