[[caption-width-right:350:So who can watch a show like this when it airs at midnight?]]

An animated cartoon that airs during nighttime, as opposed to a SaturdayMorningCartoon which airs during Saturday morning.

Most of the series/specials on this list are aimed only at adults, but some are aimed at kids and families. Child-targeted kids networks such as Creator/{{Nickelodeon}} and Creator/CartoonNetwork premiere a significant amount of their original series in primetime.
