Should Adult Swim decrease its schedule?

Okay I've already posted why I don't expect AS would decrease it's schedule... well... ever. BUT if perhaps it did then I'd like to see the following happen.

Cartoon Network dedicates 10PM-12AM to teen oriented programing including Total Drama Island and similar comedies paired with Naruto and similar action programing. Bleach could fit nicely into this block if it could push TV-14 at least in the 11 hour.

Then Adult Swim can do whatever the heck they want with 12AM-6AM (maybe even give up 5AM-6AM to let CN run some forgotten stuff there). Though Saturday and even Friday may continue to lack performance... in which case they could give more time to the teen targeted programing.

CN has shown a lot of growth with 9-14 lately thanks to TDI and Naruto Shippudden is lightly to boost that at least a little bit. And I'm pretty sure both those shows and others could hold down strong ratings with 12-17 or 12-24. So the time is ripe for CN to experiment with aiming programing at the 12-17 demographic they almost entirely ignore.

If that's too much change then simply give Saturday completely over to Toonami a rebuild it as a block targeted towards those older viewers. CN has their youth action premiere block on Friday so Toonami needs to change in some manner to accomdate that better. Though this version of Toonami would be well suited for reruns of Star Wars which are sure to do well with young adults and teens.
 
Toonami going for older teens would nicely reflect the current age of many original fans.
 
It should go like this:

Monday-Thursday
12am-5am

Friday
1am-5am

Sunday
11pm-5am

And they should aquire new shows to air. Their crappy old ones are getting...old:sweat:

Has anyone here ever taken a tour of the Cartoon Network Studios building in Burbank, CA before it closed? I really wish I could have :(
To celebrate the fact that I got three weeks off from work for rest, I watched today the latest installment in the separate Minions series of movies. What I loved was the unique logo variation of the Universal logo, which was akin to the plot taking place in the late 1800s

Nicktoons in the US has recently aired something that no one expected: an AI generated ad for an overpriced plush toy.
Not everything from DC and Marvel comics needs to be more like the adaptations.
