What the hell is Warner-Discovery's problem?
>>150403436They got the guy who greenlit Here Comes Honey Booboo
Its rather strange how nobody ever blames AT&T, since their ownership was just as catastrophic
>>150403560Because Hollywood is pissed off at Zaslav and that's why the mass-complaints are leveled at him for things he did do and things he didn't do
>>150403560At least AT&T let them make new shows. Since WBD it's been nothing, just one show targeted at SE Asia.
>>150403436That art is shit but Johnny saving Dexter and the over the wall kid and Jack ready to fight back make it kino
>>150403436only samurai jack was brave enough to fight back...
>>150403436Cartoon Network and TV overall have been dying a slow death for years. There's not much that can be done but slow the decline as much as possible.>>150403560I've never heard of AT&T pulling nearly every animated show of their main streaming platform. Whatever problems there was before it's only getting worse. Maybe another name change will help.>>150403570One of the perks of being the boss.
>>150403436People have been doomposting about CN since i started using 4chan over 10 years ago. not gonna happen
>>150403823What's really confusing is that YouTube should've replaced Political News but those are the channels that are doing fine nowadays, Reality TV and Documentary channels are coasting at half of their peak since 90% of YouTube is just that, meanwhile cartoons & sitcoms are just dead genres everywhere.
>>150403436CN already stopped making anything noteworthy, even before Zaslav. He's just accelerating its total demise.
>>150404054>YouTube should've replaced Political News but those are the channels that are doing fine nowadaysA lot of retired boomers just put news channels on all day as background noise.
>>150404054Old people can and will leave the news playing all day.Kids and teens are either constantly switching between various niche streaming options or just scrolling thru shorts/tiktok.12 year olds are no longer waiting until a specific hour in the day to watch a single tv episode interrupted by 4 commercial breaks.
>>150403823>Cartoon Network and TV overall have been dying a slow death for years. There's not much that can be done but slow the decline as much as possible.Why not stream more on places like Youtube and Twitch? Corporate lack of adaptation?
>>150403560The way Zaslav runs WB is eerily similar to the way Eric Bitchoff ran WCW.
>>150404365>12 year olds are no longer waiting until a specific hour in the day to watch a single tv episode interrupted by 4 commercial breaks.Even me didn't have the patience, I jumped channels like crazy, before moving to piracy.
>>150404612waiting for Blood Runs Cold
>>150403436gross looking pic but>Eustace getting wrecked by the corpo footkind of funny>>150403633also this
source since OP is a faggot hiding this is a 4 month old articlehttps://archive.is/20250520161059/https://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2025-05-13/cartoon-network-and-adult-swim-struggle-to-survive-zaslav-and-streaming
>>150404054Streaming services utterly broke how TV shows in general are structured but cartoons are now having the same issues toys ran into about a decade back.A suspiciously high number of nostalgic properties and revivals makes sense for movies and for sitcoms but the primary demographic of cartoons are kids who aren't old enough to feel nostalgic.It's hard to get people on board if kids aren't watching
>>150406210Nostalgia revivals are desperate attempts to get stoners to watch a new cartoon or to get parents to get their kids to watch something that resembles something they once watched.Some kids are watching streamers.Some kids are watching anime.Some kids are watching big hit cartoons like Bluey or Paw Patrol.No kid is going to wake up and decide on his lonesome "I should watch Gravity Falls, that cartoon that ended like a decade ago."
Kids don't watch TV anymore, let alone a long running cartoon series.They just watch streamers and AI youtube slop on their tablets/iphones.
cheap brain damaged jews
>>150406375Kids will watch 1,200 of One Piece
>>150404561WB is taking inspiration from Nickelodeon and letting others pay them to stream the content instead. Tubi has all of Looney Tunes now.
>>150406397That's anime
>>150403436Why did Dee Dee became Jewish in that picture?
>>150406403Anime is just cartoons
>>150406429then why are all western "anime" dying?
>>150406484It's a real damn mystery.
>>15040639720 and 30 year olds watch that. Kids now just watch youtubers and streamers.
>>150406501I don't think it has to be the end for Cartoon Network. It just needs to be less soft and round, and more edgy. There was a time when kids ran home from school to watch Samurai Jack and Dragon Ball Z (that's a cartoon, fuck you), so what happened?Make an action cartoon, now. Have it be pretty violent, and don't be afraid to show a little blood like Power puff girls, and CN will be fine. It just has to show something that people would want to watch.
>>150404612How so? Not familiar with wrestling.
>>150406530You are describing what made anime more interesting than cartoons. A bit of sex and violence.Instead what western media moguls are doing is meddling in anime studio productions to make it more like cartoons.
>>150403436It had played fast and loose with accounting for decades and eventually ended up in a situation where it got bought out by the guy who got rich by figuring out he could turn the old educational channels nobody watched into sleazy reality slop factories. He thought this made him a business genius who'd turn it all around, but he was in way over his head and all his "brilliant" and "innovative" ideas backfired completely.Now the company is gonna get sold for way less than he invested and he's begging people to start a bidding war so he can recoup at least some of the massive losses he's facing.
>>150406375How dare kids these days not like the things I liked as a kid! Why won't everyone be meeeeeeeeeeee?
>>150407399The problem is kids would like the things most of us liked when we were kids. A big pill to swallow is, while a lot of people think Dexter and Courage and EEnE are overrated (or AT LEAST old and played out), they speak to children in a way cartoons nowadays don't.
>>150407437See, this is why the world needs the Force Everyone To Be Meeeeeeeeeeee Machine! If everyone was me, everything would literally be perfect forever!
>>150406375imagine a generation of kids raised on this
>>150406375and the new AI slop ain't much better than prior Youtube Elsa slop
>>150406418Why are you obsessed with seeing jews everywhere?
>>150403436kids don't watch TV anymore, only youtube and tiktok and due to their extreme IP protection they willingly missed that train
>>150406184Very few interesting or fun things happening that OP had to pull up old news. Sad state of affairs.
>>150407963The oldest possible elsagate kid would be 12 now. 8 at minimum.
>>150403459>This is an act of spite for TLC cancelling the show and not allowing producers more control over the cast's lives
>>150403436Zaslav just sucks. That's it
