I’m not entirely sure what meaning is intended but most of the characters in the top far predate Cartoon Network
For example: Flintstones: 1960; Cartoon Network 1992. We’re closer to the founding of Cartoon Network than Flintstones was
When cartoon network launched in the 90s, it was filled with classic cartoons, so another generation of kids remember the Flintstones, Jetsons, etc. from their childhood.
