As we all know Cartoon Network has not been great as of late but apparently Regular Show is ending with season 8. This has been confirmed by Mark Hamill's Twitter account and has since been taken down. Cartoon Network is now losing one of its best shows and it doesn't seem like they have anything planned to replace Regular Show.
-- I know this is off-topic but I thought I should let you guys know and would like to hear your opinions on this.
I agree, I just thought this might be something interesting that could kill some time until something gets revealed.

Another question: Would you be fine with a Ben 10 show in the style of Samurai Jack?
Obviously I'm not taking about the reboot, just a new show in general.
Honestly, I don't care if the reboot continues as long as they have another show around that is true to the original timeline. Right now what they are doing makes no sense, they are only profiting off of one audience when there is a larger, more profitable audience to be had if they made a true Ben 10 show.
Just saw this video, skip to 49 seconds for the funny part if you don't want to rematch the reboot trailer. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JW9hmWacUE0

@Tactical-Ochoa said in Ben Prime Wasn't In The Reboot By The Ink Tank:
@coreofthesun From what I recall, there were creative differences between Man of Action and Cartoon Network in regards to making a sequel to the Original Series. Cartoon Network eventually decided to have a different team take over the project.
Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if something like this happens again. From what we know, Man of Action isn't happy with Cartoon Network's vision of the franchise based on comments from Duncan Rouleau. I wouldn't be surprised if CN ends up decided to have another team takeover Ben 10. Personally, I wouldn't be opposed to this. I prefer a more story driven series of Ben 10 and think that the next step for the franchise is a Ben in his 20s that will eventually lead into Ben becoming Ben 10k. I feel like for a show like that, it needs to be story driven, with a serious tone and serious threat.
D.C. Network just released a video on this topic. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k2TD-dUoIpY
@Tactical-Ochoa I like them conceptually but I feel like for some of the Ultimate Aliens they could've just been a brand new alien species. I don't see how Ultimate Swampfire and Swampfire are meant to be from the same species. To me that seems like a completely different alien as opposed to an evolution to Swampfire. Even though I like the concept, I can't say I missed Ultimate forms in Omniverse.
Back in 2021, Duncan Rouleau said that the 6th iteration of Ben 10 would be revealed by the end of the year. Well here we are a year later and still nothing on the next series. What do you guys think happened to it? I think whatever the next series was was cancelled in favor of something else.
D.C. Network designed 5 of his own Ben 10 aliens and had an artist draw them in the Omniverse style. Here's the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gwWRaxnCr2A
I honestly really enjoyed watching this, it took me back to when Omniverse used to be on the air and really made me miss watching new episodes of Ben 10 every week. Hopefully we get a new series soon!
@tactical-ochoa I'm really wondering what's going on with the 6th iteration of Ben 10. It was supposedly supposed to be announced at the end of next year and we're already in May and we still haven't heard anything.
@jrphilgene I think it's probably going to be a show that's not connected to anything we've seen before. I don't know if that'd mean we're following 10 year old Ben again or an older Ben (although I'd prefer the latter). I think there's a chance that we return to the classic continuity although I feel like a completely new take on Ben is more likely. As for a sequel to the reboot, I don't think that's happening. The reboot seemed to fizzle out popularity wise towards the end of the series.

It's only been a little over a month since the Ben 10 reboot ended but I've been wondering how long we will have to wait until we learn what's next for Ben. Duncan Rouleau was answering questions on Twitter about whats next back in the fall but I haven't seen anythings since then. Personally, I don't know if we'll hear anything this year about what's next. I could see them not saying anything about Ben 10 until next years upfront. Another possibility I could see is if we get some sort of announcement at comic con later this year. When do you guys think the next series will be announced?
@coreofthesun Yeah every current CN show looks the same.
With regards to Ben 10 in particular, I wonder whether rerunning the original series, Alien Force, Ultimate Alien and Omniverse would spark the interest of kids because of how different they look in terms of art and feel in terms of tone. Then that could set up a possible Omniverse sequel, Ken 10 series, sequel reboot or whatever. That would not only attract younger kids but please the older fans too.
That's a really interesting point. Any of the former Ben 10 series or honestly any old CN original would really be a completely different look and feel from what's currently on the network. I wonder what the reaction would be from kids seeing shows with very distinctive/unique artsyles.
