Trope was cut/disambiguated due to cleanup
* OnceOriginalNowCommon: Like all things groundbreaking, most of what made the block special has been copied and improved upon enough in the decades since that it can be hard for newcomers to appreciate:
** It raised the standards of TV animation from [[LimitedAnimation assembly line-quality]] to [[AnimationBump one closer to that of feature films]]. After decades of [[TechnologyMarchesOn technology catching up to the demands of a TV schedule and budget]], it doesn't seem nearly as impressive and, in fact, can make any OffModel moments much more noticeable.
** Thanks to the higher quality animation, the block also allowed for more ambitious storytelling. This, too, became a new standard, with the stories and characters of TV cartoons not only becoming more ambitious but nuanced, to the point that more than a few retroactive viewers have complained about the block's shows having cheesy, predictable plots and {{flat character}}s.

* PresumedFlop: Many of its later shows are seen as failures, mainly those that only aired for one season, as Creator/FoxKids and Creator/{{Nickelodeon}} started to lure its viewership away.
** ''WesternAnimation/GoofTroop'' is often seen as the beginning of the end, with its competition with ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheAnimatedSeries'' typically seen as a CurbStompBattle that the Dark Knight won with ease. However, ratings data showed that ''Goof Troop'' easily held its own, and occasionally even beat ''Batman'' from time to time. Its cancellation wasn't because of any ratings issues, but rather due to a combination of its high production costs, the brief dissolution of Disney's partnership with Creator/{{ABC}} (which aired the show on its Saturday morning lineup), and an overall drop in ratings among kids' demographics that year.
** ''WesternAnimation/{{Bonkers}}'' is regarded as trying and failing to take on ''WesternAnimation/{{Animaniacs}}'' despite the fact that, in most big markets, its direct competition was ''Batman'', which was an entirely different kind of series. Rather, Disney's decision not to make any more episodes beyond the initial order is likely more because of its TroubledProduction than anything else.
