Guys, I just read some news that Cartoon Network is removing Apple & Onion from their lineup on August 23. This really sucks; I loved that show so much. It’s so quirky and unique, and now it’s just getting taken off when summer’s over? Anyone else feeling bummed about this?

Wait, WHAT?! Nooooo… not Apple & Onion! That show was my comfort series—it’s so different from everything else on CN. What a dumb decision. Why can’t they just keep it running alongside the newer shows? Someone tell me this isn't final.

Ugh, this feels like one of those situations where a great show doesn’t get the recognition it deserves. Seriously, Apple & Onion was so creative and had such a wholesome vibe. I hate how CN just drops nice shows like this to make room for overly flashy or bland stuff.

I can’t believe they’re doing this just as summer ends. It almost makes it feel worse. Like, summer 2023 will forever be remembered as the time Apple & Onion went away. 😭 The weird little animations and goofy humor always brightened my day.

It’s a huge bummer. I’ve noticed CN is clearing out a lot of their older content lately, and it seems like they don’t know what to do with shows that aren’t megahits. Apple & Onion wasn’t a juggernaut, but it didn’t deserve this! Fingers crossed it ends up on HBO Max (or whatever streaming platform CN stuff might land on next).

They’re seriously cutting Apple & Onion?! WHY?? It's funny and relatable in such a bizarre way, and I feel like its fanbase is quietly strong. Who else is going to teach me life lessons with talking food characters? This makes me so sad. CN, do better.

Tbh, I’m not TOO surprised. CN has been phasing out some underrated shows in the past couple of years (Infinity Train, anyone?). They seem to focus more on rebooting old IPs or promoting massive franchises. Shows like Apple & Onion—which don’t fit that formula—always seem to get the short end of the stick. I hope it gets a second life somewhere else.

But what about the unfinished storylines?! There is SO MUCH POTENTIAL they hadn’t explored yet. I need more singing food escapades! Also, that theme song? Iconic. I don’t even know what CN is doing with their lineup anymore.

Maybe if there’s enough fan pushback, they’ll reconsider? I mean, look at what happened with other canceled shows that gathered loyal followings and fan campaigns. We should start something! Petition, Twitter (X??) hashtags, SOMETHING to show CN that we care.

Even if they take it off air, at least we have streaming platforms. Does anyone know if the episodes are available to purchase anywhere? I’d rather buy the series outright than risk it disappearing forever.

This is so lame—Apple & Onion deserved better. Genuinely one of the funniest (and weirdly emotional) shows on CN in a while. Goodbye, friends. 💔

Don’t give up hope, y’all. In the modern age, shows have a way of coming back or finding a second home. I mean, look at Clone High and Futurama! Maybe down the line, someone at Warner Bros. will realize how special Apple & Onion was and give it another shot.

It's extra sad because the show’s vibe was perfect for summer. The lighthearted humor, the weirdly deep moments, the catchy songs—everything about it felt like a summer treat. Losing it right after summer ends feels like losing a piece of sunshine. 😢

CN really does have a habit of mishandling its smaller shows. Hate to say it, but I’ve been seeing this pattern ever since they canceled Sym-Bionic Titan back in the day. It’s like if a show doesn’t bring in instant money, they drop it without a second thought. I hope people keep talking about Apple & Onion and keep the love for it alive somehow.

I guess this is goodbye for now, friends. Time to binge every episode before Aug 23 hits. 😢 Goodbye, Apple & Onion. You two were the best food duo ever.


Write a follow up where surprisingly, they aren't using this is an excuse to add even MORE TTG, Instead they've basically dug something out of their archives for the sole purpose of "complementing Craig and also address the recent drought of action"
