Addio, adieu, auf wiedersehen, goodbye, amore, amour, meine liebe, love of my life

The lengthy title is intentional, that's just part of José Cid's 1980 Portuguese ESC entry.
Today, an era ended in the United States. A long-standing tradition that lasted roughly five decades and - without standing in competition with cable TV - got it's own death by E/I.
E/I regulations meant that broadcast networks had to stop broadcasting conventional cartoons in favor of live-action shows, most of them belonging to Litton.
The block ended in an unceremonious way, probably because they just didn't care about it, not to mention the website which has been limited after the announcement.
NBC Kids and MiTelemundo still show cartoons, but they are all E/I.
