Usually that happens when the age varies slightly. I'd take a guess but you're probably a few years younger than me? When that show was on CN I was 19.
Seen it before on forums: people going crazy about some show and me going wut?!?... an age thing in most cases.
I was 9th grade when it first aired. After 7th grade I had absolutely no time to watch cartoons so I never even watched single episode. But some friends and schoolmates watched it back then.
Isn't it easier to say your age than grade? School systems vary
Well, maybe should've said "after going to high school" because I was 1 year older than my schoolmates (started 1st grade at of 8 instead of 7 ) so age wasn't so relevant in my case. Or between 15 and 19.

Maybe. But for 5 years I literally had 0 time for such "long time commitments" like watching any kind of series be animation or others. Some of the few animated stuff I watched back then was Monsters Inc and Ice Age and other popular ones to talk around in school.
Also, the fact that someone can't watch cartoons for 5 years isn't gonna affect the industry and isn't gonna change other people's general behavior. No offense.
Samurai Jack was a pretty popular show on CN. And due to it's more mature themes and style, there was clearly a designated mixed (young and adult) targeted audience that was considered by Adult Swim. Perhaps also motivated and influenced by (the success of) the series's 5th season that aired on their channel.
I was just talking about why I didn't watch Samurai Jack since that was your initial question. After graduating I had time but watched animes like Bleach, Black Lagoon, Elfen Leid, Ergo Proxy etc. But can't go back to cartoons even tho I am more of manchild than an adult.
I even still have the whole series of "Batman Beyond" and "Adventures of Johny Quest" that were my favorites back then but find them too simple when I tried rewatching them few years ago.
There are some animations that can be (re)watched even by adult minds. Simply because they approach universal and timeless themes. Samurai Jack is one of these, as proved by Adult Swim's Season 5 being released / created 'recently'.
But, at the end of the day, we all make our choices based on various 'infinite' cultural and social contexts.
