The Adventures of Tintin newspaper (The Twentieth Century). The success of the series saw the serialised strips published in Belgium's leading newspaper (The Evening) and spun into a successful "Tintin" magazine. In 1950, Hergé created Studios Hergé, which produced the canonical versions of ten "Tintin" albums. The series is set during a largely realistic 20th century. Its hero is Tintin, a courageous young Belgian reporter and adventurer. He is aided by his faithful dog Snowy ( in the original French edition). Other protagonists include the brash and cynical Captain Haddock and the intelligent but hearing-impaired Professor Calculus (), as well as the incompetent detectives
What a Cartoon! Dog", "Mike, Lu & Og", "Sheep in the Big City", "Whatever Happened to... Robot Jones?", "", "Grim & Evil" and "Megas XLR" as well as Fox's "Family Guy". The series is influential for birthing a slew of original Cartoon Network hits and helping to revive television animation in the 1990s. Once it had several original shorts, those became the first Cartoon Cartoons (a collective term for retro Cartoon Network original series). From 2005 to 2008, "The Cartoon Cartoon Show" was revived as a block for reruns of older Cartoon Cartoons that had been phased out by the network. Fred Seibert
