I honestly feel that during this show's all too brief run, it was bar none the best cartoon on television, adult or otherwise.
The storylines were strong, the characters likable, the art direction was top notch, the animation quality was better than average, it had lots of heart, and it didn't abuse dialogue but at the same time it didn't use too little the way Samurai Jack often did.

I've never even heard of this show before coming across the clip. What's the name of it?

Meh, it's a woman shaking her ass. Is that any worse than Jerry hacking Tom to pieces?

No they did not. A real shame since it was pretty great.

I also remember one time one of the monsters got its arm torn off during a fight in the show. The fights were often pretty brutal by PG cartoon standards.

It seems like ratings were not the reason it was cancelled, or at least the sole reason. “Genddy’s moved on to Sony Pictures Animation. Titan got competitive ratings with other action shows, but what shut it down was it didn’t have enough toys connected to it. If you don’t have the, the studios don’t want to renew for another season.”www.cartoonbrew.com/tv/cartoon-network-cancels-sym-bionic-titan.html

I think I've seen cartoons before where a guy slaps a woman on the bum and then gets KTFO. Harassment AND violence.

Powerpuff Girls also had lots of dismemberment on the one off kaiju-type monster villains. And Samurai Jack was pretty violent too, but most of the extreme violence was done to robots, so it was "ok".

If half the twisted stuff from the 80s, and 90s as well, was done today, no cartoons would ever reach TV.
I will say, I blame the fact that I never heard anything about the show until well after it was off TV.

But most of CN's cartoons in the 90s didn't have toys period and they lived longer than Titan. Just shows you how CN's focus has changed.
