My brother upgraded his old TV with a 55″ Samsung OLED S90C Smart TV. He was looking for entertainment streaming apps for Samsung TV. Since his kids are fanatics of Cartoon shows, he asked me about the procedure for installing the Cartoon Network app on a Samsung Smart TV. However, the Cartoon Network App is only available for Android and iOS. So, I told him to use the casting and screen mirroring method to stream shows wirelessly on the TV.
Cartoon Network can also streamed using live TV streaming services. So, I explained the alternate ways to watch Cartoon Network on Samsung TV using DirecTV Stream, Hulu + Live TV, Sling TV, and YouTube TV.
In this article, I have demonstrated the possible methods to stream Cartoon Network on the Samsung Smart TV.
