That above was just the written version of the 90s Jeux Sans Frontières theme. An old European game show that was cancelled in 1999, featuring teams from different European countries.

But still, 22 years ago today, Cartoon Network began appearing to all of Europe via cable and satellite.

It was a time of democracy all across European screens. Cable and satellite helped expand this revolution.

In Portugal, demand for the English language grew.

CN HQ was here to stay.

Then came CN PT.

The invaders must leave soon.

CN HQ, though still alive, is fondly remembered.

CN HQ is love. CN HQ is life.

22 years is too much,yet still acceptable.
