Not sure where else to put this, so figured I'd post it here. Let me know if it needs to go elsewhere.
I started a stream of classic Cartoon Network, and in my 2 years so far of running it, I noticed a bunch of similar programs. I figured a lot of people here would appreciate it as I do, so figured a nice collection of these streams might be good to have.
CN Classic:

Starting with my own, it's not any one to one of a specific year in Cartoon Network, rather, it is a weekly schedule covering all different eras. Anime on the weekends, toonami blocks, a Meguzi Block, thursday covering the 2000s and early 2010s shows. It mixes up every once in a while, but generally keeps the same feel. Weirder AS shows past midnight. Everything based on EST.
4GTV:

One of the earliest friends I made in this adventure, Grupstra runs a G4TV clone. We both started around the time the G4TV reboot died. He runs something similar to CN Classic, in that it's not a specific build of a schedule, but with G4. I don't watch a ton, so I don't know the exact schedule lineup, but at all times the upcoming shows for the next couple hours is listed in a guide banner at the bottom of the stream.
Toonami Aftermath:
https://www.toonamiaftermath.com/
Has to be one of best known. Been around since approximately 2008, when Toonami originally ended. I only found out about it recently. Owner goes by Toon, and is a really chill guy. Not overly concerned with drama nonsense (IE: I've met a lot of people running stuff like this who feel like you can't talk about competing services, Toon is not one of them). If you want to start your own, feel free to DM him. He's busy, but when free he has seemed more than willing to provide some advice from his time running TA, and he's got a lot of experience. Lineup is mostly 80s-90s centering around Toonami. LOTS of custom work, including custom Toonami bumps with music and voice. He's put a lot of work into it, and the custom site and guide is the icing on the cake. Solid community.
Cereal Milk VHS:

A bit more controversial, and not quite the same, but a similar idea and I think worth noting. Cereal Milk VHS uploads multi hour videos to youtube that are simulated broadcasts of various old channels. It's pretty solid, but he's also garnered a bit of criticism for the amount of merchandising and general begging he's done, meanwhile supposedly (I've heard from others, but no proof myself) stealing these broadcasts directly from other youtubers. I personally don't care, but note while he seems to be one of the biggest youtubers doing simulated broadcast blocks, that's hanging over his head. If that bothers you, then don't view I guess. I personally never liked the amount of merchandising, as to me the innate risk in running simulated broadcasts means taking money for it is a pretty big no, and ups the risk substantially.
If you got any others, please share them. Hopefully this can be a resource for people who might be new and find their way here from watermarks and the like, as I did. Idk how lively this site actually is, but I figured anyone left would appreciate these channels. Personally, the only thing running on my TV anymore is channels like these. If there's any mods around here, I'd love to see some effort to centralize a big guide with all these streams, and would be more than happy to approve the channel (multiple in the distant future) I own for syndication on such a project, but it seems that's more a pipe dream. If I think of any others, I'll reply myself.
