Why didn't CBS allow the show to hit 200 total episodes?

Since when do networks care how many episodes a show has? With this logic, they wouldn't cancel any shows that were left open-ended either, and TV would be full of shows nobody watches. They only care about what makes money. By this time, TMNT had pretty much worn out its welcome. Although it would've been funny to see a tv exec say "wait! We can't cancel TMNT! It only has 7 episodes left until the 200 episode milestone!"
Personally I think it ended at a good time. Most of the public had been burned out on TMNT for a few years, and most of the kids who grew up with it were now teenagers who didn't watch cartoons.
