An example of a CHECK it bumper

The CHECK it look is Cartoon Network's seventh look that debuted on May 29, 2010. This era marks the debut of the third Cartoon Network logo that simply uses the first two letters from the original logo and draws the letters bigger. Also, this logo removes Cartoon Network's trademark pointed lettering that was used on its logo for almost 20 years since 1992 and instead squares them out. This led to some minor controversy by Cartoon Network fans, although it wasn't a very serious manner, it made fans feel as though the new heads of Cartoon Network don't care for the channel.

The "CHECK it." era is also criticized due to the Cartoon Network logo being used in an offensive manner, with it consisting of the co-heads of Cartoon Network in cubes representing the Cartoon Network logo (by this point, fans knew that the logo wasn't going to revert back to its full lettering, but would keep in the "CN" look in place of the full "Cartoon Network" screen bug it used from 1992-2004. Well the full "Cartoon Network" does appear in bumpers, it was official that it wasn't going to show up as a screen bug anymore). They also make childish jokes and perform slapstick. Bumpers showing them usually have their heads cut out for unknown reasons (their heads were shown back when the era was being promoted though).

The only true praise that this block has received was for its creativity and style. Also noted is it using the word Cartoon Network in both its full spelling and its abbreviated form. The full version can currently only be seen in bumpers, though rumor has it that it might also pop-up during the revived, Cartoon Planet.

It is Cartoon Network's fourth most popular look, behind Checkerboard, Powerhouse and CN City.
