Cartoon Network (Portuguese TV channel)

Cartoon Network Portugal, commonly abbreviated as CN, was a Portuguese digital cable and satellite television channel launched on 3 December and was owned by Warner Bros.

[2] On 25 September 2024, Cartoon Network Portugal merged with the French, Dutch, German and Scandinavian feeds.

On 3 December 2013, the Portuguese channel was officially launched in Portugal on all cable operators, switching from the Pan-European version (in English).

The Pan-European English feed was removed from the operator NOS, along with other foreign language international channels on 1 February 2010, and the Portuguese-language Panda Biggs was included in its place.

Properly throughout September 2024, Cartoon Network Portugal was in the channel's censorship and controversies, when it moved to Western Europe.

The censorship was motivated by the channel's decision not to acquire the Portuguese-dubbed version from PSB (which dubbed the golden age of American animation onto VHS), which is notable for containing xenophobic and racist caricatures and actions, as well as violence involving weapons, household objects and torture.

With this in mind, and to avoid controversy and problems with the media, Cartoon Network only aired the silent episodes (although it censored some of them) and only subtitled the graphics.

On 29 October 2021, Cartoon Network Portugal rebroadcast as a Halloween special, the first live-action Scooby-Doo film, which already had a Portuguese dub produced by Matinha, but for the same reasons, it was broadcast on original subtitled version.
