Nightly Premieres at 7 p.m. Earn Double-Digit Delivery, Ratings Growth For Cartoon Network Throughout July 06

Saturday Night TOONAMI Franchise Also Charts Delivery, Ratings Gains Among Kids 6-11, Tweens 9-14

Throughout July, Cartoon Network presented brand new episodes of its multiple original series every Monday-Saturday night at 7 p.m., which earned solid double-digit delivery and ratings growth among kids 6-11 and tweens 9-14 vs. the same July time period last year, according to preliminary data from Nielsen Media Research. The nightly programming stunt anchors Cartoon Network�s summer campaign to encourage sampling of its key originals such as The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy, Camp Lazlo, Foster�s Home for Imaginary Friends, Ben 10 and My Gym Partner�s a Monkey.

Additionally, the new episodes provided a strong launch into TOONAMI, the network�s Saturday night (7-11 p.m.) action-adventure block, which also secured delivery and ratings gains for its targeted kids 6-11 and tweens 9-14 audiences.
