TCM & Cartoon Network is an European satellite channel that airs TCM from 21:00 CET to 06:00 CET and Cartoon Network Europe in the remaining time, mainly for analogue cable systems across Europe, although it was originally targeted at the Republic of Ireland and the United Kingdom. It was formerly free-to-air, but is now carried encrypted and provided only to cable companies and on some commercial satellite systems.

Its former name was TNT & Cartoon Network, due to the existence of Turner Network Television in Europe at that time. After the foundation of a European version of Turner Classic Movies, this was offered instead, with TNT becoming a UK-only entertainment channel within Europe, and eventually closing down.

On the introduction of a UK-specific version of Cartoon Network, after the beginning of Sky Digital, TCM & Cartoon Network chose the pan-European version of Cartoon Network, which continues to operate with multiple sound tracks on many satellites.
