The rumors have been swirling for years: Was Cartoon Network over? After all the changes that have occurred, it seemed like the beloved brand was doomed. However, Cartoon Network is still alive and kicking, and there’s a lot to look forward to like Iyanu Child of Wonder.
From Fiona and Cake to Batu, Gremlins: Secret of the Mogwai, Gross Girls, Unicorn Warriors Eternal, Invincible Fight Girl, and Ian Who Child of Wonder, there’s something for everyone.
Fiona and Cake
Fiona and Cake is the first young adult Adventure Time series, and it’s expected to premiere on HBO Max sometime this year. The 10-episode spin-off follows Fiona and Cake, two friends who are on a multiverse-hopping adventure and journey of self-discovery, while being pursued by a powerful new antagonist. Donald Glover (Childish Gambino) is set to reprise his role as Marshall Lee, so we can expect some new music as well.
Batu
Batu is a musical comedy created by Matthew Cherry and Chaz Bottoms. It follows Otis and Jada, two gifted dancers in Chicago who are often outsiders in the rigid world of mainstream dance. Together, they find a home at a struggling hiplet studio and a family among the studio’s troop of dancers and instructors.
Gremlins: Secret of the Mogwai

Gremlins: Secret of the Mogwai is a prequel to the Gremlins films. The series follows Sam Wing as he meets Gizmo, and a street thief named Elle as they take a perilous journey through the Chinese countryside. The star-studded cast and expensive CGI make this a show to watch out for.
Gross Girls follows two girls, Chuck and Zoe, as they try to survive middle school without losing any of their trademark grossness. With the help of their best friend, they boost each other up and encourage each other to be themselves.
Unicorn Warriors Eternal
Unicorn Warriors Eternal is created by the great Genndy Tartakovsky. It follows a team of ancient superheroes protecting the world from an ominous force. They find themselves in the bodies of teenagers, and must navigate the unexpected laughs and humor that come with teen angst and emotions.
Invincible Fight Girl
Invincible Fight Girl follows Andy, a young girl who dreams of becoming the greatest pro wrestler of all time. With the help of a retired champ, an innocent Mikey, and the unscrupulous Crag, she embarks on a journey filled with adversity and self-discovery.
Iyanu Child of Wonder
Finally, Iyanu Child of Wonder is set to release on Cartoon Network and HBO Max in 2024. The series follows a teenage heroine, Iyanu, who must uncover the mystery behind her newfound powers to save her people from an ancient curse.
