Looking at the premiere patterns, I notice how by March 2019, they were beginning to make a transition to Saturday morning premieres beginning with the premiere of Victor and Valentino.
While they still had the 5, 6, 7 Go! block as the Monday night primetime block at the time, it seemed like Saturday mornings were siphoning more and more shows away from primetime (or they ended before getting the chance to be siphoned into Saturday mornings with Gumball and We Bare Bears) as months passed until by January, every comedy series was on Saturday mornings for premieres.
I do have to ask, why did Cartoon Network decide to stop doing primetime premiere blocks by the end of 2019 and move everything to Saturday mornings (action was on Sunday mornings, but no one cares since there's no advertisement for those)? After 25 years of various primetime premiere blocks, what made them decide to stop? And keep in mind this was before they lost the 5-8 PM blocks to Adult Swim in 2023 so the excuse that they lost hours doesn't work.
