Another thing I'll say that I think people are missing here is that because the Cartoon Cartoons shorts are now owned and are being released by Warner Bros. instead of Cartoon Network, they have the potential to be picked up by ANY platform, not just CN or HBO Max.
After almost 5 years, the first of the Cartoon Cartoons shorts, "A For Angel", has finally released!
New Cartoon Cartoons shorts will be released every Monday on the Warner Bros. TV YouTube channel.

...essentially a label for Warner Bros. Animation, which is what it is today, hence why the shorts are being released on a Warner Bros. YouTube channel, instead of a Cartoon Network one, or, you know, the network itself.

I think that the main thing that caused a huge delay in the release of the Cartoon Cartoons shorts is the split of the studios from the networks at WBD shortly after that company was formed by the Discovery merger.

Now this is a surprise! Does this mean that the monopoly is finally willing to work with #Toonami again, even if it's only for less popular titles?
Also, is the block going to get anything past S1 of #TokyoRevengers? My gut says no, but I could be wrong.

So, if I'm reading this correctly, Netflix would gain the entire U.S./Canada versions of TCM, while Discovery gets the rest of the international versions. That's different from the split ownership of the U.S. network that was announced a few months ago.

I'm glad that #Toonami is reassuring us about its future, but doing that at the same time as dropping the ball on same-week reruns of Season 3 of one of the best action cartoons around ( #Primal ) is... a choice.

I may not have any nostalgia for BlackBerry, nor do I need another phone, so I won't be buying a Clicks Communicator, but I'm definitely rooting for its success from afar.
If the Clicks Communicator flops, I don't EVER want to hear ANYBODY say "I would buy a modern BlackBerry!" again.
