Free and Iconic: Tubi’s Massive Cartoon Comeback Starts March 1
Tubi is bringing back nostalgic Saturday morning cartoons. Growing up before streaming services took over, kids had to tune in on Saturday mornings with a bowl of cereal to watch some of their favorite cartoons. Tubi is adding over 100 cartoons starting March 1. The cartoons will feature early classics from Cartoon Network, Warner Bros., Looney Tunes, and Hanna-Barbera, spanning the 1990s and early 2000s.
Tubi Revives Cartoon Classics
Tubi announced earlier this month on the company’s X account the new animated shows available on March 1. HBO Max used to be home to classic cartoon titles like “Courage the Cowardly Dog” and more cartoons from Cartoon Network’s “Golden Era,” but they slowly disappeared. And with Cartoon Network officially going off the air, Tubi is becoming the new app for cartoon lovers.
If you are not familiar with Hanna-Barbera cartoons, the creator is responsible for shows like “The Yogi Bear Show” and “The Flintstones Kids.” Other animated shows that fall under the Looney Tunes content that are not Bugs Bunny or Daffy Duck related are “Mucha Lucha” and the “Wacky Races” 2017 reboot.
Fans Celebrate Tubi’s Big Move
Fans quickly took to the comment section of Tubi’s X account. Many X users expressed excitement about being able to watch their favorite cartoons in one place for free.
One user wrote, “Thank you for doing this. Please keep going in this direction!” Another user wrote, “And still free? This is why y’all are winning. Idc if there’s ads.”
Some fans use the space to make requests for future shows. “Can you guys get the streaming rights to Ultimate Muscle, Mega Man NT Warrior and Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo please,” was a request by one X user.
Tubi cannot please everyone, but they are off to a good start.

The first round of cartoons will get added on March 1, and the rest will get added throughout the year. Among the first 16 cartoons are “The Powerpuff Girls,” “Pinky and the Brain,” and “Dexter’s Laboratory.”
