USA Cartoon Express’ aired on weekday afternoons and Sunday mornings. It was a programming block consisting of animated children's series which aired on the USA Network from September 20, 1982, to September 15, 1996. Cartoon Express was the first structured animation block on cable television, predating Nickelodeon's Nicktoons and Cartoon Network by a decade.
The initial lineup consisted mostly of series from the Hanna-Barbera library. In October, Turner Broadcasting purchased Hanna-Barbera and launched Cartoon Network one year later, thus taking a chunk of Cartoon Express programming with it.
