Some programming produced by Cartoon Network Studios has also been broadcast, on the now-defunct Kids' WB, Cartoon Network's sister network.

The studio began in 2000 it's roots firmly based in the former Hanna-Barbera Cartoons which was dedicated to producing original programming for the Cartoon Network, including latter-day Hanna-Barbera creations such as Dexter's Laboratory, Johnny Bravo, Cow and Chicken, I Am Weasel and The Powerpuff Girls. In 1997, the company's productions were released under of the banner of its then-parent company Hanna-Barbera.

In 1997, the Hanna-Barbera name was dropped as a production entity and the H-B studio was folded into Warner Bros. Animation. Cartoon Network Studios became a separate entity from Hanna-Barbera, growing out of the animation studio. The studio has continued to thrive with productions such as The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy and Samurai Jack and newer productions such as Chowder, The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack and Adventure Time with Finn and Jake.
