The following is a work in progress list of known times that Cartoon Network and Adult Swim, alongside Cartoonito, had errors with screenbugs, their split screen credits, any identifications, and even during the shows themselves.

Date Description Example
December 16, 1997 The ThunderCats episode Fond Memories encountered substantial technical difficulties. Following the show's custom Toonami intro was just under a minute of blank screen followed by the QTTV Technical Difficulties slide. The slide abruptly cuts to the first act already in process as Mumm-Ra is explaining his plan to trap Lion-O, accompanied by the TV-Y7-FV ratings bug fading in and out. The following establishing shot of Mumm-Ra walking through a cave was then interrupted by a Toonami ThunderCats bumper, followed by the commercial break playing ahead of schedule. After the commercial break ends and a few seconds of blank screen followed by a brief gray screen, the episode starts again, halfway through its title card / credits. The episode then aired properly, albeit with about five seconds of black and gray screens preceding each act of the episode (including the epilogue), and the commercial break being replaced with a Toonami bumper. The screenbug was completely absent for the entirety of the episode.
March 4, 1998 During the premiere of the Robotech episode False Start, the screenbug disappears in the first and last few minutes of the second act.
July 18, 1998 The TV-G rating was accidentally kept on screen during the first commercial break for the Cartoon Theatre premiere of An American Tail (1986).
April 1, 1999 The Cartoon Network screenbug is off-center during the premiere of the ReBoot episode Infected.
1999-04-01 1630pm ReBoot
June 15, 1999 Following the first act of the Dragon Ball Z episode Elite Fighters of the Universe... the Ginyu Force, over a minute of black screen interspersed with the Technical Difficulties slide was seen instead of going straight to commercial. This was followed by the All Cartoons All the Time CN promo already in progress. After the promo ended, a split second of the Cartoon Library CN promo could be seen, followed by the proper Toonami Dragon Ball Z bumper and commercial break.
June 27, 1999 The premiere of the ToonHeads episode Toro! Toro! had some significant technical difficulties. Instead of airing Bully for Bugs and Senor Droopy, the cartoons The Mice will Play and Sheep Wrecked aired instead. Intermission segments from the previous week's episode, The Nice Mice of Warner Bros. also played. The episode would premiere properly on October 1, 1999.
July 31, 1999 The Cartoon Network screenbug did not return for the majority of the second act during the 3:30pm airing of A Pup Named Scooby Doo. The screenbug eventually did return, but because it happened at the end of the episode, it is only on-screen for less than five seconds.
1999-07-31 1530pm A Pup Named Scooby-Doo
September 4, 1999 Preceding the Robotech episode Sweet Sixteen is a promo for ReBoot claiming that the show will be airing next. During the episode itself, the ratings bug fades in closer to the left side of the screen than normal, and the Cartoon Network screenbug is off-center.
October 11, 1999 At exactly 3:25am, during the break between today's episodes of The Yogi Bear Show and The Huckleberry Hound Show, during the Shortie City-E-Scape, the Cartoon Network screenbug appeared on-screen for several seconds then disappeared for the rest of the Shortie.
1999-10-11 0325AM City-E-Scaped (Bugged) Channel-Error
2000 The Cartoon Cartoon Fridays screenbug was mistakenly used during Space Ghost: Coast to Coast.

May 28, 2000 The poll segment for tonight's episode of JBVO labeled that week's poll question as a "Brak or..." question instead of the proper "Should" question (said poll question was about if Shaggy should put on some weight). This was an oversight on the production end of the show, as episodes would be ready for airing a few days before the episode's airdate and thus this error was included on the master tape.
May 27, 2001 During the 8:30pm airing of The Chuck Jones Show, the Robert McKimson short Gone Batty accidentally aired.
June 17, 2001 During the 8:30pm airing of The Chuck Jones Show, the Robert McKimson short Bedevilled Rabbit accidentally aired.
July 2, 2001 During the 1:00am airing of Late Night Black & White, the 2 Stupid Dogs episode Hobo Hounds aired. While the episode was intended to mimic a black and white cartoon, it's unknown if it's airing on the block was intentional or an error. The episode would air during Late Night Black & White again on January 27, 2002.
August 19, 2001
  • During the 10:00pm airing of The Bob Clampett Show, after the show's "coming up" bumper for Porky's Movie Mystery, tonight's airing of The Tex Avery Show was mistakenly started early, preceded by an Up Next bumper, a commercial break and a Cartoon Network ID. A minute into the first cartoon of tonight's airing (Magical Maestro) the program abruptly cut back to the remainder of The Bob Clampett Show, picking up right where it left off. After the show was over, in order to make up time due to these difficulties, after the Up Next bumper a Technical Difficulties slide and the "Yogi Bear lost his I.D." promo were shown. After that, The Tex Avery Show was restarted again with neither the intro, nor the opening "trivia" bumper. In addition, in between the first and second cartoons, the Technical Difficulties slide reappeared for a few seconds.
  • During the 11:00pm airing of the ToonHeads, in between the two ToonHeads Trivia bumpers, a production slate for the bumper was shown.
September 16, 2001 The version of the Looney Tunes short Tom Turk and Daffy that aired today had no opening credits, nor it wasn't the usual dubbed version they air. In addition, the music video styled banner that was used during airings of The Bugs and Daffy Show in the mid 90s could be seen near the end of the short.
November 17, 2001 An encore edition of Toonami Midnight Run: Special Edition was initially rated TV-G, before switching to a TV-Y7-FV rating a few seconds later. The screenbug also does not appear during the broadcast.
November 30, 2001 The Adult Swim screenbug was used during the first part of the 1:00am airing of Acme Hour.
2001-11-30 0100am Acme Hour
December 28, 2001 During the 3:00am airing of The Bugs & Daffy Show, the short Kit for Cat had its beginning played in Portuguese. After switching back to English, the screenbug disappeared for the rest of the short.
March 11, 2002 The Adult Swim screenbug was used during the 1:00am airing of The Ruff and Reddy Show.
2002-03-11 0100am The Ruff and Reddy Show
April 15, 2003 The first half of the Rurouni Kenshin episode First Train Ride: Danger on a Runaway Locomotive! aired instead of the first half of the premiere of the Hamtaro episode Boss, the Cool Ham of the Sea!.
May 12, 2003, June 23, 2003, August 31, 2003 Typically, during Season 2 episodes of Hamtaro, Cartoon Network would replace the second theme song ("H-A-M-T-A-R-O") with the first ("It's Hamtaro Time"). However, during the premieres of The Little Bandits! and Clubhouse Intruders, both openings are used. This also occurs in the airing of Happy Birthday Hamtaro Special!, likely because the master of the special episode began with a title card before cutting to the second theme song, so Cartoon Network simply began with the first instead of replacing the theme song.
May 25, 2003 All cartoons shown during the 7:00pm airing of The Chuck Jones Show were Yosemite Sam cartoons directed by Friz Freleng.
August 12, 2003 The Cartoon Network screenbug did not appear during the first half of today's broadcast of X-Men: Evolution. The bug would return during the second half.
2003-08-12 2230pm X-Men Evolution
December 5, 2003 During the final act of the 8:00pm Fridays presentation of A Flintstones Christmas Carol, Portuguese audio was erroneously broadcast in the right audio channel, with the original audio broadcasting in the left channel. This was fixed a few minutes afterwards.
July 10, 2004 During the second half of the premiere of the Mobile Suit Gundam SEED episode Stars Falling in Space, the Checkerboard screenbug was used.
2004-07-10 2230pm Mobile Suit Gundam SEED
April 16, 2005 The premiere of the Dragon Ball GT episode Giru's Checkered Past was supposed to air at 10:30pm; however a repeat of the special recap episode A Grand Problem aired instead.
June 29, 2005 An audio promo advertising more The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy mistakenly played during the last 20 seconds of the premiere of the episode The Firebird Sweet (obscuring the episode's audio), when The Life & Times of Juniper Lee was actually the next show.
September 22, 2005 During the 11:00am broadcast of Scooby-Doo and the Monster of Mexico (2003), the menu bumpers incorrectly label the direct-to-video film as a New Scooby Movie. This is done despite the fact that the menu bumper shown during the prior program (Tickle U) had the correct movie labeled as being next.
November 17, 2005 The screenbug was absent during the second segment of today's airing of the ¡Mucha Lucha! episode The Incredible Penny Plutonium until about five minutes into the episode.
January 31, 2006 The intro to G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero replaces Evil Con Carne's intro during the 10:40pm airing of The Cartoon Cartoon Show.
June 3, 2006 The screenbug was absent during the entire first act of the series premiere of Pokémon Chronicles.

November 11, 2006 - June 30, 2007 During the series premiere of .hack//Roots, a banner would pop up claiming that My Gym Partner's a Monkey was airing instead. This was never fixed for the rest of the series' run.
2007-01-20 0500am .hack--roots (gym partner's a monkey error)
March 24, 2007 During the premiere of the Naruto episode The Third Hokage, Forever... toward the end of the episode, a scene got repeated, then it cut to the credits early before One Piece started five minutes early.
May 19, 2007 The premiere of the Naruto OVA Mission: Protect the Waterfall Village! had a TV-Y7-FV rating, despite the promo and encore airings giving it a TV-PG rating. This is likely due to Cartoon Network forgetting to update the ratings prompt, as it aired in the timeslot normally held by TV-Y7-FV shows.
August 24, 2007 The Adult Swim screenbug was accidentally shown during the first three minutes of the 10:30pm airing of Codename: Kids Next Door before switching to the regular screenbug.
August 25, 2007 The Adult Swim screenbug was accidentally shown during the last few minutes during the premiere of the One Piece episode Wreckers Reef.
April 10, 2008 Today's new episode of My Gym Partner's a Monkey erroneously used the regular screenbug instead of the "New Episode" screenbug. This was likely because it was a last minute change, as Camp Lazlo was originally going to air in that slot.
2008-04-10 1900pm My Gym Partner's a Monkey
October 18, 2008 There was no "New Episode" banner during the 10:30pm premiere episode of Naruto.

August 29, 2009 Various technical issues happened during the premiere of the Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's episode The Profiler. After returning from a commercial break, the TV-Y7-FV rating bug appeared on a black screen for several seconds. A minute later, the program was heavily pixelated, with the Cartoon Network bug intact. The episode was abruptly interrupted by promos, causing the ending of the episode to be cut off. Due to the error, Ed, Edd n Eddy began airing four minutes ahead of schedule.

October 18, 2009 Various issues occurred on the west feed during the last half-hour of the premiere of Casper: A Spirited Beginning.

This did not occur on the east feed.

2011-09-15 2030pm The Problem Solverz
November 12, 2011, December 17, 2011 Typically, episodes of Bakugan Battle Brawlers have the screenbug in the top right corner of the screen, presumably to avoid obscuring the scores. However, the "Up Next" banner, which at the time was an extension of the lower right hand corner screenbug, appeared at the bottom of the screen twice during the premieres of the episodes Countdown to Doomsday and Evil Evolution, with the words "Cartoon Network" not visible on the logo, causing the episodes to temporarily have two screenbugs.

July 23, 2023 Today's new episodes of Summer Camp Island erroneously used the regular screenbug instead of the "NEW" screenbug.

June 9, 2024, July 7, 2024 Both airings of The Scooby-Doo Show on June 9, 2024 were preceded by the Up Next bumper for Scooby-Doo and Guess Who?. Similar to the error affecting Baby Looney Tunes the preceding September, this was likely because a Prism bumper for the show that actually came on didn’t exist yet. The error was fixed once the show aired again on June 16, 2024, only to return (albeit only during the second half-hour broadcast of the series that day instead of both airings) on July 7, 2024.

December 20, 2020 A promo before the premiere of Wonder Woman: Bloodlines erroneously states that the regular Toonami lineup would return the week after, when a Cowboy Bebop marathon was already scheduled for that day.

February 24, 2022 The 7:50am airing of Love Monster was replaced with a repeat of the 7:30am airing of Pocoyo, which cuts off during Pocoyo's Band. To make up for the lost time, Bing replaced that day's 8:30am airing of Lucas the Spider.
