David Zaslav And The PURGE Of Cartoon Network

- I think I’ve held my tongue long enough. Animation, along with the people behind them deserve to be treated fairly. Animation matters and hopefully this video explains why :)

I said it before honestly David Zaslav is doing a worse job for animation at Warner bros than even Stuart Snyder was with cartoon network in the late 2000s.
Funny how all the trash president's started showin up after he left 🤣 like someone kinda infection from a bullet wound he caused or something 😭
#CRASHANDBERSTEIN hasn't aired in a decade since 14;
It’s literally insane that we’re even able to compare the two. Unfortunate, Didn’t think the bar could get lower
Or Christina Miller.
@@kidferociousMiller's a prime example on why women should not hold power in offices 💯
I will NEVER forgive David Zaslav for his disrespectful treatment of animation as a medium, cancelling dozens of brilliant projects made by passionate people, and overall being a greedy scumbag whose practices would make Bob Iger blush. The sooner Zaslav is fired from WBD, the better.
Honestly what pisses me off the most is that a good number of said projects are ready for release, so it’s not even halfway into production thing. Zaslav is basically saying “Thanks for all your hard hours on this project, but we decided not to do anything with it”
The problem is hiring CEOs who can’t see the value in things that people besides themselves enjoy. Zaslav doesn’t care about cartoons so he thinks that no one should. It’s just a bit selfish
@@ChildishjuVERY SELFISH
He is a super villain
He better get fired, break up Warner Brothers Discovery, and bring back the animation
All companies deserve a CEO, but not all CEOs deserve companies.
True poetry
@@Childishju
I hope that David loses custody of WB
@@Bandy-artz What? That is one comment there, dude.
@@Bandy-artz The merger of WBD not only killed Cartoon Network, they killed HBO MAX. It was the best streaming service cause you literally got everything. Now I'm just scrolling for Succession and The Pinguin... I doubt anyone cares and pays to watch Discovery's crappy documentaries...
Modern cartoons would never exist without Looney Tunes
And also Mickey Mouse/Disney.
If David had his way, cartoons would have never existed
@@DuskusCB My Idea is That The Looney Tunes and Animaniacs To Join animated Forces to drive David Zaslav Crazy out of Office
@@HB_Doraemon_Multitoonsyeah even Felix the Cat.
1000% true can’t argue against that
Seeing Craig McCracken/Genndy Tartakovsky to JG Quintel/Rebecca Sugar makes me smile makes me want the story continue of this Network
Hearing their passion for these shows feels me with so much joy
@@HeySamus33 I wish Sam Register can be CEO OF WBD. He would be a trillion times better than Zaslav
One of the weird things is that Cartoon Network Studios EUROPE (now Hanna-Barbera Studios Europe) is still alive and well. Hell, they literally make Gumball, and are working on season 7. (yes, Gumball is a European show)
Didn't they get rebranded into Hanna-Barbera Studios Europe?
At this point, I’m positive that Zaslav has some kind petty grudge against WB and cartoons.
I think he’s just one of those old guys who thinks cartoons are for three year olds and no one else. So since he doesn’t care about cartoons, no one does. Kinda selfish viewpoint tbh
I wonder why? Is it because of The Banana Splits Horror Movie made by Warner Bros and CGI Fireman Sam that has CGI Norman/Satan Price?
they cost more to make than justusing lazy cgi and a popular title, if he can be "successful" for 20 years who cares what happens to the brand as a whole, hes made his money
I don’t like someone who doesn’t respect animation.
Disney.
@@Ralse_1 legitimately most of the old crusties at the top don't respect how much work and love goes into animation
@@Ralse_1They give the 2024 Snow White a Bad reputation that Disney is hurting themselves instead!

Zaslav = Judge Doom
oh god he is a toon
@@redstone0234 “Surprised?!”
@@highfiveanimations "Not really. That lame-brained HBO Max purge idea could only be cooked up by a toon!".
NOT JUST ANY TOON!!!
At least Judge Doom has redeeming qualities.
It feels like ASSlav smiling maniacally while burning potential projects.
The world will be a much better place when David Zaslav is fired from Warner Bros. and replaced by someone who isn't a sexist, racist, anti-animation bigot. Zaslav is guilty of purging a plethora of content from MAX (formerly HBO Max), turning down many promising animated series with female and non-white leads, attempting to delete the Coyote Vs. ACME movie despite a lot of people (myself included) wanting to see it), and denying Josh Fairhurst of Limited Run Games the licenses for Tiny Toon Adventures and Animaniacs, thus preventing Fairhurst from releasing a compilation of Konami's games based on those franchises for modern consoles (I did an entire video rant on that subject and I recommend seeing it if you haven't already).
I’m gonna check out your video! I’m always down to learn more about a situation
There's always the high seas if you don't want to give them any money
Genndy Tartakovsky should be in charge of CN
Maybe MeTVToons will show the original Cartoon Network shows, most likely from 1996 to 2005, most of us will probably be around late 30s or even 40s for late 2000’s shows shows like Chowder, Marvelous Misadventures Of Flapjack, and then the big ones like Adventure Time, Regular Show, Steven Universe, and The Amazing World of Gumball, then short lived shows like OK KO to be featured on the channel. Either they will have new cartoons one day or the animation guild would either create a new channel or find a network that actually offers rights. Or possibly even the independent companies outperform Hollywood at animation, Hollywood would probably cease to exist as every indie creator has their new mini studios with lots of creativity.
I would love it if The Powerpuff Girls (1998-2005) and Dexter's Laboratory becomes the first two CN cartoons to air on MeTV Toons in the future...
If that were to happen, that would be The Powerpuff Girls' second broadcast premiere since their cartoon's brief 2002 appearance on the Kids' WB schedule to promote The Powerpuff Girls Movie, which was Cartoon Network's first and only cartoon to get a theatrical film adaptation at the time.
The reason I would like to see The Powerpuff Girls (including the two pilot episodes) get added to MeTV Toons first, is because of the pop culture and recognition surrounding it, as it was Cartoon Network's most popular cartoon in the late 1990s and the early-mid 2000s, plus the show is filled references to other classic Hanna-Barbera and Warner Bros. cartoons and pop culture references relating to The Beatles, disco music, super heroes, tokusatsu and anime. It would feel like it would fit in well with the other classic Hanna-Barbera-produced, Warner Bros.-owned cartoons on MeTV Toons' schedule!
Swat Katz and Godzilla (Hanna-Barbera) should be there too!
@@HB_Doraemon_Multitoons I grew up with both of those, Swat Katz on Boomerang, and Hannah Barbera Godzilla on UA-cam, although Swat Katz is somewhat co-licensed by the guys who created it aside from some guys that worked at Hannah Barbera at the time I think. HBG might cost another penny since Toho of course but not sure who else worked on it or owns the license.
@@Justin-Hill-1987 you know, there’s a big chance we’ll see most of the Classic CN shows before any of the Amblin cartoons like Tiny Toons or Animaniacs, especially if it’s on Air. Given the time slots and choices of cartoons from different eras, I’d say we’ll see Powerpuff Girls every Saturday from 10:30 pm to 12:00 am, whether it’ll share the three slots with other Cartoon Cartoons or other Warner properties, or even other shows from different companies.
“Of course you know THIS MEANS WAR!!!!!” - Bugs Bunny
Yes!! 👍
Honestly, when WBD collapses, we should make that man pay.
That we shall
We should already make him pay
When WBD collapses, I'd like Shout! Studios to buy the CW, Warner Bros Animation, Hanna Barbera and Cartoon Network components of the company! I'd also like The CW to get a Cartoon Network block on weekdays after school and a Cartoonito block on weekend mornings!
@@Childishju I think killing a man over ruining a movie studio is a bit too much.
@@Childishju Wecan however make damn well sure he quits.
How to trigger a CN fan in one easy step:
Mention Discovery in any way possible.
Discovery
Almost got jumpscared by the reply lol
@@blackyhackystudios It's also a way of triggering Trekkies who hate Star Trek: Discovery...
Bro I swear all the Discovery shows are the same
He needs to resign and be banned from Hollywood for life
an "activist" needs to cause his permanent resignation tbh
This man is plunging a knife into cartoon network
If Cartoon Network was a pregnant person, Zaslav just pushed them down the stairs
To be frank even before zaslav came into the picture the network wasn't doing that well after the early 2010's anyway.
@@AutZentus 100% true, it isn’t all his fault. I just wish he cared enough to at least try to fix it.
God, it's even worse looking back on this video concerning the fact that the ad for Max features a picture of Gumball to promote the show on Max, only to be removed on Max for nearly two months in October 1st.
Even for the fact that it's the most successful show on CN and Max, and there was a 7th Season coming to it's way.
It’s actually insane. The lengths they’d go to purge animation off of the service is just so wild to me. They advertise max as the place to go for cartoons, yet once you pay for a subscription they remove the series. It blows my mind
When I saw Cartoon Network website was shut down that instantly hurt my childhood 😢
The end of an era..
I agree! It all started since summer 2022, when any upcoming movies or series got scrapped at Warner bros Discovery. in early 2021, AT&T was offer to spun off to Warnermedia and have it merge with Discovery, inc. It was completed in april 8th, 2022. And that's why David Zaslav has became as Warner bros Discovery ceo. Going in this year, Warner bros Discovery has lost almost 10 Billion dollars. If Warner bros Discovery run out money, then it will end up in collapsed. And Warner bros had Absolutely enough with David Zaslav! But instead to terminate contract the merger with Discovery, they decide to not cancel any upcoming new series and movies just to make any money. I believe that David Zaslav is more worst than former Disney ceo Bob Chapek. In words from Tray Daniel, let's started! Warner bros and HBO max

I agree! Things need to change!! I hope they don’t collapse, I just hope that they find someone who cares about animation to head all of warners animation studios.
🤞🏾🤞🏾
I know this isn’t a cartoon, but Sesame Street was really done dirty by Zaslav, as well. One of HBO Max’s selling points was the fact that it housed tons of Sesame Street content, including episodes from each and every season. But when it went through its Max transformation, the platform wipes out most of the episode catalog, and now the only seasons left are 1, 5, 7 and every season from 39 to now. They even got rid of The Not-Too-Late Show with Elmo, a Max original! And like Juju said with CN, it doesn’t make sense to do this, as HBO partly owns Sesame Street, and having episodes from every era of the show makes it appealing to everyone, kids and adults.
The same can go for most of Adult Swim's shows.
We've lost stuff like Space Ghost, seasons 1-12 of Squidbillies, Metalocalypse, Venture Bros, and tons of their obscure shows from Tom Goes to the Mayor to The Shivering Truth.
It's like Zaslav doesn't want us to have nice things. :(
That’s so horrible, I just can’t even rationalize why that would be necessary. I’m a huge impractical jokers fan and they removed over 100 random episodes for no real reason:/
Sesame Street is legendary and deserves so much better
@@Childishju So does Impractical Jokers, even if it isn’t as good.
Cartoon Network Forever
#cartoonnetworkforever!!
Zaslov is a bottom liner and thats ultimately the problem
It’s just sad at this point
I think he was the reason why we are getting so much drama with animation recently. Especially with the whole HyperCrystal drama. 💀
a osc member spotted
Who?
@@skelemama you wouldnt understand your not in the osc
I won’t be suprised if David Zaslav decides to shut down Cartoon Network for good and force us to watch the shows on Max
If he does, we riot.😑 I'm not playing.
If he does, we riot.😑 I'm not playing.
The scary part is that is 100% a real possibility. And it’s clearly their goal, I just hope it doesn’t actually happen.
@@pixelverse48 No, I refuse to believe that Cartoon Network would die officially. If this happens, my life would be ruined and I’d have to find some place else to develop and greenlight my shows #savecartoonnetwork
Something I find very odd the only Lego Batman movie on hbo is the 2017 one, no mention of the prior lego justice league movies aswell as no Batman or justice league movies on max big sad
Such a waste of potential. Max has only succeeded in disappointing me unfortunately
we need make a diss track about David Zaslav
Lmaooo if Gandalf demands a diss track, a diss track he shall receive
He’s trying to deny us our rights to high quality entertainment by swindling us out of our money.
Sad reality
Nickelodeon does the same.
I am still watching Steven Universe and I hope it isn't cut through my first watch of it! Its devastating loosing these shows that so many people worked so hard to create 😣
It still will be on Hulu even if they take it off
Steven won’t be cut. Steven universe adventure time and regular show are constantly in the top 10 most watched on max. Those are probably the only shows that are somewhat safe
Also, Steven universe is incredible!!
@@ChildishjuThank god! Idk what I would do if Steven Universe got cut. It’s literally my comfort show! 😭
I remember watch The amazing of Gumball regular show on cartoon network back in 2010-2019 good memories I miss old cartoon network
I do too!
not only does he not respect animation, he outright hates animation
I think he’s just one of those people who thinks cartoons are for 3 years olds only
@Childishju he made several series be tax write-offs instead of giving ownership back to the creators so they could continue the series in some way, shape or form, only a person who hates animation would do that
@@terrysyvertson9205 we need make a diss track about David Zaslav
@@Childishju
Wait until he sees Happy Tree Friends
I will forever be grateful that I was able to watch all of infinity train, I was interested in watching the fourth season when it was going to drop, before the HBO Max purge.
I remembered watching it in the early days of the pandemic during lock down and would do my college art class work while listening to the episodes.
I still haven’t seen it but heard it’s amazing so I guess I gotta get on it
I wish I was the president of Warner Brothers Discovery
Same. The first thing I would do is Fire David Zaslov
Zaslav made so it's super hard for him to get fired because he put a lot of Yes Menand probably has something to make Warner worse in case he does get fired so if his kicked out probably get worse for a bit before it gets better
Unfortunately true, I guess we’re all just gonna have to hope that someone there stands up for animation
@@Childishju because it's obvious he already got failsafe plan to make Warner worse in event they fire him
David Zaslav, how dare you!
If Sam Warner was alive he would kill Zaslav
And he would go to jail for murder. But I’m not defending Zaslav but I find David Zaslav confusing.
David Zaslav needs to be kicked off the board as CEO.
Cartoon Network is still on cable but with only non-original shows airring and that stupid Teen Titans Go
The day David Zaslav is fired and replaced by someone who actually cares about the world of animation will be a blessing and the first real step we need to take in order to help Cartoon Network return to its former glory. I have been keeping tabs on Cartoon Network for years and that brainless dirtbag has ruined CN with each passing day he has been in charge, and he wouldn't know good quality or real entrainment if it hit him in the face.
I'd just love to see Discovery sell Warner Bros. to Weigel Broadcasting, owner of MeTV and MeTV Toons, or another partner, so that this nightmare can end...
It would be cool if Me TV Toons aired my show.
At this point, a lot of animation veterans and legends should band together and make their own giant company that will truly put respect back into animation.
Very wishful but that would be cool!
Spongebob + The Nicktoons, Walt Disney and Cartoon Network Studios
Shoot! If I had know that site existed sooner, I'd look into it and watch the old shows that I loved as a kid. Such a sad day to learn about this now.
I really wish Zaslav needs to leave WB discovery forever someday or resign the company just like what bob chapek did that left Disney before iger moved in.
what if there was one of those old ng flash games where you click buttons to beat up zaslav
Lmaooo I remember those types of games
David Zaslav is just that one grumpy old man at the retirement home that doesn't like to see people have fun
David Zaslav is doing such a great job at WBD as Jack Welsh did at GE.
Now more than ever, we need Betty Cohen back! She created Cartoon Network back in 1992, and would be mortified over what David Zaslav is doing
We also need Geraldine Laybourne back at Nickelodeon!
First he shut down Rooster Teeth and now Cartoon Network website? Damn you Zaslav!! That CEO really needs to be fired permanently!
Revenge for DeathBattle!!!
Warner bros should just fire David zaslav
That's genuinely infuriating
NOT THE WEBSITE RIP
Yup. All we can do is voice are concern, keep supporting animation and hope that someone cares enough to fix things
The His Theme Piano fits this so darn WELL! 🌌😭
From the ashes of Cartoon Network rises MeTV Toons.
David Zaslav is the Thanos to CN
Something like that lol
CN at this rate unfortunately will be nothing more than a memory which is a shame CN made so many childhood and made so many dreams come true, heck I'm now doing arts and design all because I once wanted to work with animation, and guess where i always wanted to work? CN not Nickelodeon or Disney but CN.
It's sad to see the downfall of such a giant!
Sorry for the late reply but it sucks so much that so many peoples dream of working for the network have been thrown out the window
Same happened with Nickelodeon
The downfall of CN started WAY before Zaslav.
This is true.
@@Childishju it was christina miller's fault
I hope this man gets fired, for everything he did to animation. I will never ever forgive him for what he did, to Coyote vs Amce, to cancelling GOOD passionate shows, for mistreating people at their jobs.
He is a MONSTER
JUST like Herb!
When you’re a kid cartoons used to literally mean something when channels gave it soul now Stuff like this is why I had felt that David zaslav is just sabotaging Cartoon Network as a whole ever since the Warner deal with time AT&T, It almost feels like an animation version of child abuse not just from one company but more than one. After Stuart Snyder, Christina miller took over by canceling action shows and produce ttg on a regular basis to which began the fall of the network the same time Nickelodeon fell off right after 2009.
Cartoon Network is cooked
@@RandomIyProductions yup unfortunately
Why would Cartoon Network throw away some of my favorite shows like ed, Edd, and eddy, the power puff girls, Ben 10, we bear bears, scooby doo, the amazing world of gum all, and others
They didn’t have the choice
They might be collecting dust in the WB vault somewhere in Hollywood...
Warner Bros Discovery is a terrible mistake in Media History!
Cartoon Network didn’t, it was unfortunately Warner brothers ceo who didn’t see them as important enough to stay one the service
Buy physical media just stop dealing with this bs
Physical Media is going to end up being rare in the future and while Pirating is a only choice instead!
@@HB_Doraemon_Multitoons either one is a great option
@@HB_Doraemon_Multitoons well obviously it's going to be that way I guess because Redbox had already been bankrupt
I am a physical media collector myself
@@Childishju I also collect physical media. Physical media still matters, and it's very important for media preservation...
If Cartoon Network is up and going again they should re air Arthur In the last episode they all grow after they look at globe they are in awe and the show continues from there
I hope someone makes a petition to save our favorite streaming service and I hope they'll be a bright future for everyone that's all😊
@joshuaharvey5346 hate to burst your bubble but online petition are not exactly helpful or even safe. Not only do you just sign it but your information including your address will be exposed for many to see.
@joshuaharvey5346 If it’s online, then that’s a bad idea. Not only has it been proven that petitions aren’t helpful but also unsafe. Your personal information will be leaked out along with your current home address.
I hope so too! That would be the very best ending:)
6:32 Disney CEO and upper management are far from perfect but Bob Iger at the very least respects animation and the legacy of animation at the Disney studios.
For the most part yes, I don’t mind bob over at all. He’s good at what he does
yeah destroying Walt Disney’s creations.
David Zaslav hates toons! He hates animation! That’s why he’s the villain in my live-action/animated Animaniacs movie. I hate David Zaslav so much.
David Zaslav is the entire circus of Warner Bros Discovery.
No cap.
I hate when I hear someone who loves animation still refer to Cartoon Network as a network "for kids." This is part of why animation gets no respect. Barely any of the people who like it see it as anything more than something for children and nostalgia, so why should anyone else give it any more respect than that?
Even if it is "just for kids" why cancelling it?! It doesn't even make sense from a Marketing point of view.
@@yan13502 Most peoples' first instinct is to get rid of whatever they don't like or don't respect. Things intended for children get the axe very quickly because of that lack of respect. The kids don't pay the bills, after all. The goal is usually to keep whatever's bringing in the cool young people with all the money (or so the business boys think). Keep the cool, toss out the lame.
Kinda like I hear someone who loves animation still refer to Disney as a network for kids.
Animation is for everyone. People who don’t like it just brush it off as for kids. That’s kinda what I think zaslav is doing
@@Childishju My point exactly.
One thing I noticed not many mention is that one reason for removing the shows/films is likely because of paying the royalties to the people involved in those shows even when it’s super old.
Theres many actors for the past few years speaking out about not being payed royalties if the show is on a streaming service.
I’m definitely sad that we have to resort to piracy to enjoy the shows we watch if it’s not available. I hope CN gets revived one day in the future 😢
We need to stop gendo Zaslav
Let’s hope things get better
I weep for the future.
There’s gotta be a way to get rid of him for good
I hated how he removed Ben 10 Alien Force Codename Kids Next Door Ben 10 Ultimate Aliens Dexter’s Laboratory Fosters Home for imaginary Friends and more
It’s just sad tbh
I know right? He should get fired for that!
Dissing Kids Next Door in any way such as removing it from streaming should be considered a crime.
Bruh same here and that was after that stupid renaming. And I’m even more pissed that Regular Show got removed and the end of the month will be a sad one since The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy, Ed Edd n Eddy, OG Teen Titans and Static Shock will be leaving.
Now he’s removing Static Shock and Green Lantern The Animated Series
The new Herb Scannell.
Christina Miller must be proud of David Zaslav right now.
Public enemy to kids everywhere!
Wow, just wow!!!! First, he purge a few movie projects, especially the Scoob sequel (I've seen 2020's Scoob and I liked it)! Then, he shutted down Rooster Teeth, and now he's purging away Cartoon Network!?!?!? *NNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO*
THAT'S JUST HEARTLESS
I forgot he shut down rooster teeth:(
@@Childishju I don't blame you
A couple days ago, I’ve just sent an angry letter to Warner bros. Discovery and David Zaslav. I hope they get the message.
I hate to say this, but I don't think they give a damn. We're peasants to these people. Unless we have the money and influence, they don't give two shits what we say. It's an upper class thing, not just a Warner Discovery thing
I would say David Zaslav is basically Richard Beeching of the Animation because not only to shut down Wily vs Acme movie and other countless cartoon movies, but also the whole Cartoon Network for the sake of making profit.
All to get people to go to max unfortunately
It's never too late to turn things around we can still bring cartoon network studios back.
I agree and I’m hopeful for it to happen! #standwithanimation
Bro, I hate David zaslav, and it’s very disrespectful of what he did to Cartoon Network! 😡
"The PURGE of Cartoon Network"
Doesn't show any of the shows that were purged or even affected in the thumbnail...
I’m sorry but I’m not really understanding your complaint here, the idea for the thumbnail was just sad CN characters surrounding zaslav because of what’s been happening. That’s the only purpose the thumbnail served.
I was very clear and discussed almost every cartoon affected within the video, which is kinda the point of watching it. All the information needed is already inside the video.
I mean I’m not mad at your comment or trying to be negative, I’m just genuinely confused by it. I just don’t think it’s that big of a deal really, but I appreciate you commenting anyways. Sorry if the thumbnail upset you
The more that goes on with how Animation is treated the more I think the Learning With Pibby Trailer was more of a warning to us
That’s crazy lol, I didn’t even connect the two. Maybe it was a metaphor
Uh oh I don't like how David Zaslav removes Cartoon Network shows.
Neither do I friend
We all need to stand up to this company to give animation more respect.
I completely agree
Umm I hate to break this to you Disney has plenty of examples of them removing content never to be seen again. Broaden your scrope beyond animation and you will see it. They can do whatever they want. I have built a home Plex system with all of the delted content. HBO/Max, Paramount, Disney, WB, etc can do whatever they want. My home system will live on. Frak these guys.
Fair enough.
Down to Zeslav let our childhood live!!!
For SOME reason Hollywood DESTROYS your HUMANITY!
Pirating is WRONG. What’s more wrong is letting these companies take advantage of us. I dont need to pay for 4 services to watch a single season thats spread on multiple networks to just get my money. Bringing it back to “pirating.” You can still use a VCR and record your shows on a VHS to play on later, FOREVER w/ proper vhs care. No service can stop you from taping it on a VHS in 2024. Just DONT SELL IT. Its for YOU. Free trials are VERY COMMON do it during this time.
I believe in my heart the creators would understand. I havent personally tried this option but im close. I know the creators/writers/everyone involved dont get recognition. I know they made the shows but paying the company every month that hurt the creators I love, I cant do it. I would love to support them directly if I can. Im learning more since the strikes & this video helped tremendously to add to my knowledge. Thank you bro❤
Pirating is moral, and the right thing to do. Several creators (including Owen Dennis, creator of Infinity Train) have advocated for piracy multiple times.
You want a product that they aren't selling anymore, but you can easily get it online for free. Why wouldn't you take the easy route?
Sorry to say but there's no other choice and also Physical Media will end up being rare and expensive in the future too.
And for some of these shows they just straight up have no physical release, like Seasons 3 and 4 of Infinity Train
I appreciate your comment! It’s hard to support a service that has been treating the creators you love harshly. Things aren’t looking great but that could change. All it takes is the right person getting through to zaslav and then we’d be able to truly enjoy what we love but for now, support animation on any way you can. Even if it’s just using hashtags to boost engagement. We gotta let Warner know how much it means to us!
The worst part about this is that the board of directors NEVER fired him! After massive removals of shows of regardless medium, after years of hand made content created only for it to get thrown in the trash, after ALL OF THE MESS AND DAMAGES AND DEBT, they never removed him from the company altogether!
Wait, Cartoon Network did not die yet, I thought it literally died last year. Also, I can't believe how messed up things are at WB right now and I hope things get better
No it’s not dead yet, at least not in the United States. It is crazy how wild things are over there
HOW is David Zaslav STILL in charge of WBD after all these years? Unless he gets ousted by his workforce somehow, I feel Shout! Studios need to step in and buy WBD lock, stock and barrel!
He probably won’t get outed but we can hope that he hires a person who hopefully loves animation to head the animation studio for him
I'm a little worried that David zaslav won't be fired from Warner Bros anytime soon
@CactusVIIIt’s not their job to care. It’s their job to profit and make money. People are too caught up in their emotions without thinking logically of the circumstances here.
Animation will always stay on top 🙌
Absolutely!!
Now he is shutting down boomerang, one of big mistakes and regrets that Dave will ever make, he is lot worse than bob Iger
Physical media and the high seas fortunately don't have the same problems. But it is a shame about the cancellations. What a loser
If the animation Industry hadn't been so badly managed before he showed up, this never would have happened.
Don't blame the doctor for cutting off a horribly infected limb when the owner of said limb let it get that bad, to begin with
Great analogy! But I’m not blaming him for the downfall of Cartoon Network, we all know it was going down hill anyways. I’m blaming him for not caring enough to let the legacy of what it was live on. My problem is how he manipulated audiences into buying hbo max for the cartoons, only to end up removing all of them (even though he still advertised them) and disregarding all of what came before. I don’t hate him, I tried to make it clear that he’s not a bad guy for deleting a few things. But it’s clear he doesn’t want or care about the cartoons, so much so that he’d remove everything.
I don't like to defend zaslav but the reason he keeps removing those iconic shows season by season or just the whole thing at once is because it does cost warner money to pay for the server space for that property, it makes a lot more sense to license seasons out to competing companies to make more money off a series they know people are interested in from a nostalgia point. Netflix and Amazon will tend to over pay for those things. WB has been bleeding for years and it doesn't seem like its stopping anytime soon.
*Well, I have a solution for this.*
*LOWER* David Zaslav's pay.
*That way they avoid cutting the cost to remove properties on the streaming service they have.*
@@RickyPaquiot284 🤷🏾♂️ he pays himself
Unlucky dreamer, you’ve always been a real one my man. It’s good to know that you’re willing to voice your own opinion even if it’s different than mines. Respect!
But while what you’re saying is 100% true, I don’t think advertising themselves as the place for animation and all of cartoon networks cartoons and then removing most of them is kinda false advertisement.
And also removing random seasons out of the context of a show just because it’s animated just goes to show that he doesn’t really respect the medium. He’d never remove a random season from a live action story driven show because then you’d have no context with the story.
But for some reason the people at hbomax don’t believe that story driven animated shows ever exist. Imagine if they removed season 3 of Steven universe or adventure time just so they can save space, that would make it borderline unwatchable.
I don’t think zaslav has horrible villain intent, I just don’t think anyone over at Warner really cares about animation enough to give it the respect they give other shows.
I do totally understand and AGREE with where you’re coming from though bro. Because everything you said is true.
But I don’t think they’d license out two random seasons of game of thrones (just an example) because they respect that story enough to have it be told in completion.
I just hope they hire someone to oversee the animation department similar to how James Gunn is overseeing DC
Is that why some CN shows such as OG Ben 10 and The Powerpuff Girls have been added to Netflix?
I think IATSE and The Animation Guild needs to stop tax write offing movies like Coyote Vs Acme, Scoob Holiday Haunt, cancel Velma, end anti woke culture, and more personal/original stories, less live action remakes and sequels like Toy Story 5 and live action how to train your dragon and animation is not for kids, it’s a work of art that deserves more respect and UA-cam must be stopped for COPPA “made for kids” bots immediately
The Warner Animation Purge is, in fact, the worst thing to come out in 2022. And 2022 is just pure horse shit.
Is it too late to bring back Jim Samples?
I’d take anyone at this point lol
David is making Disney look good
You mean they're making Universal and Paramount look good instead. Disney is falling off because of the bad Snow White remake.
@@HB_Doraemon_Multitoons yeah I guess with universal
Dang that’s so true
@@HB_Doraemon_MultitoonsNo, Universal is running down dreamworks and slowly turning it into a copy of Illumination and Paramount sends animated movies to die without marketing, having one studio making shitty live actions that doesn't negatively effects the main animation studios is nothing compared to that. Whether you like it or not, animation wise disney is the least bad here.
@@HB_Doraemon_Multitoonsyeah but at least they haven’t been removing shows off Disney Plus like that clown Zaslov
