In January 2010, *Batman: The Brave and the Bold* premiered, which was the first new show on the version that hasn't aired on the Pan-European version before. Other new shows premiered during these months, such as *Bakugan Battle Brawlers: New Vestroia*, *Dark Knights*, *Baby Jake*, *Total Drama Island* and *Hero: 108*.

On 26 November 2010, Cartoon Network revamped its look and got a new logo. The first show to air after the revamp was *My Gym Partner's a Monkey*. The first new show to premiere on the channel after/during the revamp is *Angelo Rules*.
