The amount of times the Ben 10 reboot is airing each week has decreased greatly. I recall it only aired last week in the US like 28 times compared to the 70-80 times it aired per week after it premiered in the US and it's been over a month now since they aired a new season 1 episode. By the way, do you remember where you heard that CN is concerned about the Ben 10 toy production line, BCRZ? Just curious.

You'd think airing it less would mean it was doing worse, but that's not how CN works. For some reason. How many times did Steven Universe air last week? I'm going to hazard a guess at somewhere between not at all or maybe a few reruns. And yet Steven Universe is still CN's most popular show in the teenage-young adult demographic. There are new episodes they could be airing, but they won't.

How many times it airs in the US is not an indication of success when it comes to CN. You want to look at how it does abroad.
