Cartoon Network had a big year in 2008 with Total Drama Island, television’s first animated competitive reality series. The Flash-animated finale episode scored the #1 telecast in the network’s history among tweens 9-14 and it was the most-watched kids 6-11 telecast since Sept. 8, 2000. On the heels of this success, CN has aquired the rights to Stoked (inset) – a new 26×22 Flash-animated series from Fresh TV, the same team behind TDI. All of the animation for both of these shows is produced at Fresh TV’s sister company Elliott Animation. Cartoon Network Asia also grabbed 52 episodes of Alphanim’s Toon Boom-animated series Matt’s Monsters. Here’s the title sequence for that show:
