Note: While this era of CN is real, it actally was used between May 24 2007 and Septemebr 27 2010

The Arrow era was the seventh era of Cartoon Network in the UK. It began on September 27, 2014, replacing the CHECK it era. It ended on September 17 2024, with the Pastel era replacing it (although some bumpers continued to be used)

Surrounding presentation revolved around arrows, so promos would have a arrow, same with Next/Later bumpers

Oddly enough, the idents (produced by Pesky, who made The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers) normally had nothing to do with the arrows theme and were essentially just short sketches that formed the logo, most of them involving slapstick humor. These included:

Dentist: A dentist notices a girl has broken teeth, fixes them with a drill, turning them normal (and looking like the CN logo)
Jack in the Box: 2 funny creatures pop out of a jack in the box, they get tangled and the boxes fall over, forming the logo
Bunnies: A black bunny and white bunny bash themselves with a mallet in a squash and stretch manner (squishing then reverting to normal instantly), This gets faster untill they turn into the logo, (with the iconic dizzy/birds flying over head gag thrown in for good measure)
Parachute: 2 skydiving daredevil’s parachute forms the logo (one of the daredevils fall to the ground, the other lands perfectly)
Transformers: 2 fighting mech robots turn into the logo
Moon: A man on the moon plants seeds, hoping for trees, but gets the logo instead
Cliff: 2 flying jets fly past a cliff with the logo carved into it
Balloons: 2 monkeys bounce on a inflater, behind then a baloon with the logo inflates and bursts, leaving them humiliated
Diving: A man dives, while juggling and having a cup of tea, Judges give him a score with the logo
Magic: A magician peforms the famous cutting trick, the boxes are the logo
Dynamite: A black creature proposes to a white creature, accidentally holding the logo instead of flowers, It explodes, forming the logo
Fly squatter: A fly tries to suck juice., but gets whacked with a fly swatter, the swatter forms the N, fly forms the C
Duplicators: A red creature and a black creature multiply untill they form the logo
De-evolution: A red creature de-evolves, eventually to a ameoba shaped like the logo
It’s Magic: 2 red creatures peform shrinking magic, eventually curtains with the logo close
The Button: 2 red creatures press a button and get turned to the logo
Contest: One red creature’s eyes turn into the logo, causing him to win a contest

Write a forum conversation about this, Chaotic is being promoted as a new show, A user lists the bumpers from the previous era being carried over, it’s just these 6, Also a RS marathon on rebrand day

CartoonFan101: Hey everyone! Just saw the schedule for Cartoon Network after the Arrow era. Pretty excited to see some old favorites and new shows! But can anyone explain why Chaotic is being promoted as a "new show"? I swear it aired ages ago.

RetroRanger: Yeah, Chaotic did air back in the day. They're probably bringing it back for nostalgic reasons or maybe they got the rights to air it again and are treating it like a new acquisition.

ToonHistoryBuff: It's not uncommon for networks to promote older shows as new to draw in viewers who might not have seen it the first time. Chaotic hasn't been on in a while, so they're giving it a fresh start for a new audience.

NostalgiaAddict: I'm just glad they're airing those classic shows again. Also, did anyone catch which bumpers from the Arrow era are sticking around?

BumperCollector: Yep, there are about six bumpers continuing into the Pastel era:

Dentist
Jack in the Box
Bunnies
Balloons
Magic
The Button
I guess they wanted to keep some of those sketches going. They were pretty creative!

AdrenaliniFan: Those bumpers were awesome! I loved the randomness and creativity. Pesky did a great job with them. Wonder if they'll create any new ones for the Pastel era?

RSFan95: By the way, did anyone hear about the Regular Show marathon happening on the rebrand day? It's gonna be epic! Perfect way to say goodbye to the Arrow era and welcome in the Pastel vibe.

CartoonFan101: Regular Show marathon? Count me in! That's gonna be a great watch. Hope they do more marathons like this for other shows in the future.

ToonHistoryBuff: Regular Show has such a loyal fanbase; no wonder they're celebrating with a marathon. Should be a fantastic day for fans. Looking forward to seeing how the Pastel era unfolds!
