The term \"cartoon\" was first used to describe political cartoonsand caricatures in 1843, and later in 1916, it was used to animated cartoons. The Italian term carton, which we now translate as \"carton,\" originally referred to the thick paper or pasteboard that painters used to sketch and plan out their larger works. The first paintings were made on cave walls, rocks, and other surfaces. In the 1700s, however, Italy saw a surge in the popularity of political cartoons and caricatures the monthly British magazine Punch, formerly known as The London Charivari, is credited with popularizing the term \"cartoon.\" As befitting a publication dedicated to satire and comedy, the term \"cartoon\" was often used to editorial drawings and amusing images. Small-scale experiments with shadow puppets, stop-motion, etc., laid the groundwork for modern animation.  \nCartoon shows' viewership has skyrocketed in recent decades. Cartooning has gone a long way from its early days as caricatures and drawings to the present day with the advent of animated cartoons. Animated comics and humor cartoons are what most people think of when they hearthe term \"cartoon\" nowadays Children's television and cinema shorts that include anthropomorphized animals, superheroes, the exploits of kid protagonists, or similar themes are sometimes referred to as \"cartoon shows\" or \"programmed” Anime is a relatively new term for animated television series or cartoon programs, often running between fifteen and twenty minutes. Cartoons in the anime genre often last no more than five minutes. Network programming needs might lead to their being categorized in certain ways. As a result, the same show could air in different timeslots or formats.  \nThe Children and the Media research by Mike Jempson, the Press Wise Trust, states that Nickelodeon, Cartoon Network, The Disney Channel, and Fox Kids'Network are the four most watched children's television networks worldwide. In less than 10 years, they rose to power. Based on a number of different sources, they started developing TV channelsand formats whose only purpose was to show animated shows.  \nIn the 1990s, shows with more adult material than conventional cartoons were popular, reaching an audience beyond kids for the first time Some examples of these cartoons include The Simpsons, The Ren & Stimpy Show, Rocko's Modern Life, Beavis & Butthead, King of the Hill, Duck man, South Park, and Family Guy.
