Boomerang is the sister channel of Cartoon Network that launched on April 1st, 2000. It is the first channel created by Turner after its merger with Time Warner in 1996. The channel has aired the Tom and Jerry shorts since its launch and holds the honor of being the only program that aired on launch to not be removed. As of late 2018, Boomerang’s rerun rotation has been reduced to only showing 25 Tom and Jerry shorts. However, unlike Looney Tunes, which currently only shows post-1948 shorts, Tom and Jerry still has balance, with all eras of the franchise represented.
