There are literally entire channels devoted to showing reruns of old (or really old) shows. I don't think a six hour programming block of old shows is too ridiculous.
it is for a network like CN, which could get a ton better ratings in another spot.
If toonami came back but only with its lineup from previous years over and over again, people would stop watching it. I'm pretty sure Nickelodeon's 90s were all that block is already losing some steam.
Toonami was so successful in the late 90s through early 00s because they kept getting lots of new animes.
