Zaslav needs to be luigi'd already for what he's done to warner bros

Those drawings are fun. I would put a few female characters sealing their bodies to truly get the point trough. but that's just me.

Yes

People keep saying this about Zaslav but the harsh reality is that every other division is doing fine. He was brought on to ensure reality slop makes money and reality slop is making money. Yes, for animation fans like us, he's essentially the Antichrist, but to WB investors, he's the man keeping them afloat.

reality slop

Any normie that tunes in to HGTV tier crap should have their houses broken into and their families mutilated

RIP

Cartoon Network died the second they started airing anything other than cartoons

first clue obtained by using a Anon Babbletard website

It's been dying by at least three years in advance.
Use a better news site next time.

RIP Cartoon Network 1992-2003

Bloomberg is right wing?

RIP Cartoon Network 1992-2012

ftfy anon

fuck off anon, Foster's Home, Billy & Mandy, Camp Lazlo, Chowder, Flapjack and Regular Show were kino

RIP Cartoon Network 1992-1995

CN Real was a huge dent that ruined the channel's legacy, but Steven Universe was the final nail in the channel's coffin

No Betty Cohen, no bueno

SU was (mostly) good, shit like we bare bears and other slice of life tepid inoffensive crap which got more and more infantile was worse

nigga thinks these two posts are samefags

lol lmao even kys

Not samefags, but definitely fags.

like the first few episodes had potential, but the rest of the show had gotten much worse and was responsible for all the slice of life toddler shit we've been getting on the network

I'm not a toddler so I didn't watch those shows, sorry.

Billy & Mandy is from 2001. The earlier seasons were the best ones and it gradually got worse and worse.

Wonder if the illustrator had fun drawing these instead of whatever bloomberg usually does

implying these shows were for babies

you retard, you're thinking of 2010s shows like Steven Universe

I thought the show was hilarious. It was a demented cross of Ren & Stimpy and Fairly Oddparents (which is why as a child, I got the show confused with the two shows lol)

Steven Universe is for fetuses.

such as yourself

fuck off Industrycuck

I was an adult when all that shit came out, I'm not watching the toddler shit you watched when you were a little zoomer.

Ill defend SU but youre sorta right since the two hacks responsible for alot of the townie sloppa went on to make cuck of the creek

I was a child when Billy & Mandy and Kids Next Door came out, you literal retard. Times have changed, grandpa

I was a child when Billy & Mandy and Kids Next Door came out,

I just said that, retard. Like I said, you're a toddler.

libshit writers spend 20 years ruining cartoons

corporate head decides to put the medium out of its misery

REEEEEEE KILL SUITS RICH PPL DID THIS

stfu bill burr

You are a retard too, and I'm here babysitting you. Have you tried livestreaming your suicide yet?

Man, you are retarded

Look zoomers, the important thing to remember here is Cartoon Network is finally dead. Now let's all piss on it's grave together.

lol everyone's a zoomer except me

I'm a 1994 millennial. Well all know you're a retard autistic faggot, industrycuck

Anyone want to draw her?

Capture21.jpg - 467x743, 47.79K

1994 toddler thinks he's not a zoom zoom

If you grew up with the internet, you're a zoomer.

implying millennials never used the internet

by your logic, you never owned a computer you goofy retard. Typical industrycuck logic. End your life already you autistic retard

Eat shit you fucking corpo defending parasite, CN was good before christina miller demanded it all be toddler slop and zaslav only exacerbated her issues

wwwaaaaahhh b-but i'm not a zoomer!!

sounds like something a zoomer might say

Cartoon Network went to shit before Zaslav was just a twinkle in his father's eye.

I can't even muster the energy to pretend to care about the current state of Cartoon Network. I don't know why anyone else bothers. Shit programming + cable as a whole being outdated = counting the days. Just hope that whatever has potential nowadays lands it feet well in the streaming market.

Why don't you kill yourself

Fuck off industrycuck, your opinions mean shit

Industrycuck, you are a fucking retard, do you realize that the internet was used a lot by millennials in the 90s. Industrycuck, if you've grown up with the 90s and even obsessed the 90s so much in the most autistic way possible, then why weren't you even aware about people using the internet in that specific decade that you grew up with, the same decade that you obsess over? Answer us that

Because people of my generation had good lives and have something to live for. Unlike zoomers like you, who have high suicide rates. And for good reason, the world you grew up with was shit. It's not a wonder you're so angry.

and yet you praise the 2010s and call 2000s evil and you have no clue that people used the internet in the 90s. My god industrycuck, you are fucking retard beyond belief and you need to go out and get a job immediately

waaaaaaah i swear i'm not a zoomer!!!

keep seething, zoomie. so glad you're autistic baby channel is finally dying lol

Kys faggot

yet you praise the 2010s

lol no. The 2010s and the 2000s are the same zoomer shit. Nothing of value came out of either decade. 1994 zoomie only likes the 2000s because he was a litttle zoomer runt at the time.

You're not even answering my question you fucking retard. Please answer the question, industrycuck

I didn't read your post. It was just a bunch of rambling, angry zoomer gibberish. Stay mad

I've been wanting Cartoon Network dead for decades. This is a thread dedicated to me. So happy right now.

If anything, you're the one whose coping and seething because "muh heckin' 90s." You're a dumbass manchild and you need to get a job and get married immediately

why? who hurt you?

DO DE MUNKEE FOH ME

Industrycuck, you realize that the 2000s are different from the 2010s, especially culturally, right? But whatever, it seems like arguing with you is like arguing with a brick wall. You failed to answer my question and the decade you love and obsess over. Please get a job and get married

Cope faggot

i'm not mad, you are!

I was mad when Cartoon Network went to shit decades ago, when you were in diapers. This is a day of joy.

I'll cope by enjoying the death of Cartoon Network. Callooh callay, oh glorious day!

It's obvious that's I'm arguing with a brick wall. Industrycuck, you're an autistic, retard machild who's coping like a wildfire and obsessing over 90s culture (despite not knowing that the internet was a huge cultural thing in that decade). Continue to stay mad and continue to be a virgin. Otherwise, please go outside, lose some weight, get a job and get married

Arguing with me is pointless, my only position is that have nothing but hate for the shit you grew up with and especially the people who grew up with it. That's it.

CNs best stuff was in the 2000s and early 2010s, fuck boomers

90s culture

lol. I'm old enough to be your dad. I didn't like the 90s either. They were better than the shit you grew up with, but they were still largely shit.

hating the best decade in recorded history

The faggot has a tumblr account, there is no saving him.

My hate is reserved for anything made after 9/11 and anyone born after 1989.

Zazlaw ran a very successful Discovery Networks, for some reason they figured it would be a good idea to merge with WB which was ~$50 billion in debt due to the insane leadership of Ann Sarnoff who went full woke and spent tons doing it.

Zazlaw naturally started cutting away stuff that were dead commercially, selling off the stuff they could and pulling the plug on others so as to not waste more money on them, including lots of animated stuff.

It's not enough though, animation production isn't making WB any money, and they need to drop anything that isn't making money.

No one wants to admit that the real reason CN died was because it gobbled up shows that would have helped keep alternative networks alive, and because it was so focused on its rivalry with Nick it ended up being cannibalized by [as]. Arguably, CN's decay began with the introduction of Boomerang as a separate network. The last time it was good was the little-known Miguzi block that lasted from '04 to '07. Personally I don't care, because the greater problem is that we lost great stuff over the years like Jetix, Kids WB and The Hub in general. To say nothing about Nicktoons and the damage its philosophy did for animation. You wanna get mad about CN eventually going defunct, ask why kids TV on the whole is unrecognizable today and why they're flocking to inferior Internet slop.

Why is it that Anon Babble has been obsessed with generational war for the past decade or so? Anon Babble is even worse with all the "zoomers this, zoomers that" type of shit.

CN died because it was shit for decades. Not hard to figure out.

I’m sorry, but it’s because of Steven universe that we got we bare bears and apple and onion
Both of which I can’t tell who they are for I feel nothing watching them and when I watched them in middle school, I felt the same way

Snyder CN

good

Lmao

8ol212.png - 704x864, 344.5K

Let me oversimplify everything you said because me no like think much

Cope oldfag

Then why buy WB if they kill all their properties and replaced them with reality tv shit?

the real reason CN died

The real reason CN died is because people are watching their stuff, it's not more complex than that

Meaning CN fails to produce stuff people want to see, which has been an epidemic in western animation for the last ~8 years, and now it's the end of the road. Anime is doing great, and it's not as if they create the most fantastic stuff ever, it's just that western animation is so incredibly bad.

I can’t tell who they are for

The same thing everything Cartoon Network makes is for: wimpy 20-somethings who were bullied in school and cry themselves to sleep every night.

Save it for him

Me no like think much x2

They didn't buy the WB, they merged, as to why you would merge a very successful company with one that has a black hole of debt, no idea, and clearly it was a massive mistake.

I'll cope by celebrating! BOO-YAH!!!!!

It's finally fucking happening! It's like waking up and learning your greatest enemy was violently murdered, you will never understand the feelings of pure jubilation I'm feeling right now.

So for you

I dont blame that on SU like other fags here do, if anything it was more exec meddling but read my post here and youll see i dont like everything that came from SU

in middle school when apple and onion came out

How old are you? Also based on you for not liking that inoffensive infantilized cancer. maybe some of you zoomies are alright

Kys faggot

I love that this shit ass network is having to struggle. The article only has a line about the anime market, but that's an elephant in the room. Anime and manga have successfully stepped into the US. You anons in america can confirm if manga is really sold in Barnes and Noble, I'll just say that anime definitely ate western cartoons' lunch. I digress.

Kids don't watch a lot of what CN offers. The article even acknowledges that on the golden era of the channel, a lot of adults watched. I love the lines in there about that era

Where Nickelodeon intensely focused on elementary schoolers, Cartoon Network artists pursued edgier, more convoluted stories that appealed to a broader demographic, from tweens to college kids—basically, anyone who loved animation. “We used to explain it as, ‘We target a psychographic, not a demographic,’” Simensky says.

The resulting shows, from Maxwell Atoms’ The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy to C.H. Greenblatt’s Chowder, were often comically absurd and crammed with slapstick gags, screwy punch lines and surreal atmospheres. “Disney was the kid in the class that’s sitting in front raising their hand,” Simensky says. “Nickelodeon was the kid in the middle, making jokes. And Cartoon Network was the kid all the way in the back row, shooting spitballs.”

I love that the images in the article are mostly just old CN shows. They know.

AdventureTranny in absolute SHAMBLES right now

When did he start posting? Seeing him in every thread is obnoxious.

A few months ago. He came from reddit.

CNs worst stuff was in the 2000s and early 2010s, fuck zoomers

When anime started hitting big, cartoon producers had one choice: make better cartoons to compete with anime. They chose to make worse cartoons. And then even worse cartoons. And then even worse cartoons than that. This is the grave they dug for themselves, we're only now burying them in it.

First they took away his shitty horse show, now this. What reason is there for zoomer trannys to even continue living??

no, i hate women, sorry

Justice League and Samurai Jack were noble efforts. But yeah, they gave up pretty quickly after that. It's a shame. At the end of the day it's all about saving money in the short term, even if it fucks you in the long term.

type S to spit on its grave

S

Camp Lazlo was their first bad cartoon. Imagine going from Rocko's Modern Life to that.

Mike, Lou and Og was their first bad cartoon and a sign of things to come.

Cope and seethe faggots

Billy and Mandy, Megas XLR, we could probably name more from the 00s. The Stuart Snyder era was a sickness that marked a before and after. It left CN like a fat guy that just had to have his gallbladder removed. Fatty CN had to either get it together, or enjoy digestive diseases that can turn fatal. Here we are in 2025, fatty CN never really stopped with the slop. Oh well. At least the new, new PPG reboot sounds like it should be fine.

Hey AdventureTranny, how you feelin' right now buuuuuuuuuuuuuudday? :D

I can't even imagine the feelings I'll feel the day Cartoon Network completely goes off the air for good. Holy shit.

I don’t care about the horseshow faggot

Retarded faggot

I like how this fag assumed any discussion about trannys must be geared directly at him. LMAOOOOO my fucking sides

CARTOON NETWORK IS FUCKING DEAD YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!

so excited.gif - 220x343, 447.22K

Of course, AdventureTranny knows what he is.

Keep projecting

I would seriously buy you pizza right now. That's how fucking happy I am.

Choke on it

I hope so.

HEHEHE

I feel better about this news than I did when I got a 20,000 dollar check from the government last month.

bud giddy.gif - 429x498, 3.06M

I agree, but I still don't like him. I understand it's a harsh reality to accept that Kids Next Door or Camp Lazo probably wasn't pulling in streaming numbers to justify all the server upkeep on MAX. But axing ACME, Batgirl and the Scoob Holiday special when they were already finished just feels like an executive decision too far.

For me, it's the most exciting animation-related news since I first learned about Cartoon Network in an issue of Animation Magazine in 1991.

He started a few months ago in a thread were people were rightfully shitting on his beloved Adventure Dyke Time for starting many of the cancerous trends that cartoons are suffering to this day, even more reasons to hate that shitshow and their pretentious manchildren fans

I have to agree with a lot of the joyous sentiments of other anons. As much as I loved Cartoon Network back in the day, finally seeing it laid to rest gives me a huge relief and sense of peace.

Shut the fuck up faggot

I bet it was a disability check

Tax refund, actually
