What happened to Saturday morning cartoons?

I was up early this Saturday and though my kids are all grown now (youngest is 15), I thought I want to see what cartoons are like it's been so long since I watched them on a Saturday morning. I couldn't find any on the regular networks, I saw some pre-school type stuff and that was it.

I remember being a kid and that was the highlight of the weekend getting up at a quarter till seven (they started at seven am) getting our bowls of cereal and then it was about two hours of bliss. Heck before the new seasons of shows there was always a special for the upcoming season. I remember watching on a Friday night while the Blue Falcon and Dynomutt showed the previews.

I guess with all the cartoon channels now no one figures it's worth it to put any on the "regular" networks. To bad that was such a big deal when I was young /shrug.
