Just STOP ALREADY
Warner Bros. Discovery will announce whether or not they will sell the company in mid-late December.

Paramount Skydance has reportedly discussed a hostile takeover, potentially going directly to shareholders if the board decides not to approve the sale.

It's been 22 years already?!? Man where has the time gone.

I remember having fond memories of both the GameCube and PC versions and I still enjoy them, specifically the former, to this day. Happy Anniversary to one of the best SpongeBob games ever made

Volume 1 - Oct. 28, 2003
Volume 2 - Nov. 2, 2004
Volume 3 - Oct. 25, 2005

So the rumors were true. I’m not gonna lie that the first few seconds of this hit me hard. But at the same time I understand especially with a bunch of stuff going on with Glitch.

Goodbye SMG4. Thanks for everything.

If you ever wondered why there aren’t many cartoons anymore this is it.
the AT&T-->Time Warner-->Discovery series of media mergers were some of the most pointless and disastrous business exercises ever conceived by man

so of course we're going to do it again

this time it's rumored they want $60 billion to sell this mess to Larry Ellison and whatever's left of CBS
Warner Bros. Discovery puts itself up for sale
The announcement comes after WBD previously said it would split in two.

Update on that next photoshoot, the trains will still run but the additional updates for the original plan will come later.
Until then here are several photos from various earlier photoshoots.

On October 11th, 1960, the #LooneyTunes went prime time on ABC. Happy 65th anniversary to The Bugs Bunny Show.

Overture, curtain lights.
This is it. We'll hit the heights.
Tonight, what heights we'll hit.
On with the show, this is it!
