Let's talk about this on here and not on another thread. You've been researching this for hours. I've been doing research for months on this and I'm still doing more research. I've covered every side, angle, and corner of this reboot and Cartoon Network themselves. Cartoon Network is in charge of the Ben 10 reboot. Cartoon Network does have a say in all of this. Their production teams do what Cartoon Network tells them to do with this reboot. Cartoon Network isn't the only company that does this either. It happens all the time. It's very common place. With Star Wars Battlefront, EA has DICE make half a game so the other half would be sold as DLC. With Call of Duty, Activision has their developers make the same game every year and fill it with gimmicks while focusing more on marketing just to milk this series out every single year. You can also include Activision making licensed games just to cash in on their successes. After Hideo Kojima announces that he's leaving Konami, Konami cancels Silent Hills despite the potential for it to be one of the greatest horror games out there. Why? Because reasons. Then there's Cartoon Network, who had done things such as airing live action shows on a cartoon channel and cancel great shows such as Young Justice and Sym-Bionic Titans despite their successes on the channel and replacing them with shows such as Clarence, Uncle Grandpa, and Teen Titans Go, the most hated show on CN. Cartoon Network does run everything and shapes everything into what they want and their production teams do what Cartoon Network tells them to do.

Here's a couple of videos that shows what Cartoon Network had done in recent years, showing why so many viewers hate Cartoon Network and blame Cartoon Network for what it is today and for the very shows that it airs now. The second video being a great satire of Cartoon Network and feel free to check out the channel that posted the second video that I linked with their "100% Honest" series, proving how it's very much common place that companies like Cartoon Network shape most, if not all, of their projects to suit their greedy needs. This is why so many viewers hate Cartoon Network. Because this is what Cartoon Network does. (Warning: Strong Language)

Cartoon Network does, and indeed did, shape Ben 10 based on fan input. The second to last episode of Season 3 of Alien Force even provides a subtle message that shows that CN shapes Ben 10 based off of fan input. If Alien Force managed to gather success and a fan base, why do you think Cartoon Network shaped Ultimate Alien and Omniverse to be more like the Original Series than Alien Force? Because that is very much indeed the input that fans gave. That is what fans want in Ben 10. However, Cartoon Network doesn't understand what makes Ben 10 great in the first place so all they've really done is make the series even worse. I have seen YouTube videos and comments, fan forums, etc that shows more dislike towards the reboot than like. Even TvTropes sums up the overall response from fans on this reboot, showing more dislike towards the reboot.

Cartoon Network can't take fan suggestions and ideas, huh? So explain to me why Cartoon Network has a Contact Us/Feedback page on their website where fans and viewers can give their opinions, suggestions, ideas, and input. In fact, want to know where most of the designs for most, if not all, of Ben's aliens in the sequels came from? Well, here you go. This index series dates all the way back to 2007, a year before the Original Series ended and CN got to work with Alien Force. This index shows the very aliens that make their first appearances until Alien Force, Ultimate Alien, and Omniverse. Oh and I looked up this artist and as far as I know, he never officially worked on Ben 10. Again, this is as far as I know.
