Animation Rehydrated - Warner Bros. Discovery Celebrates 100th Anniversary with Launch of NEW 24/7 Retro TV Channel MeTV Toons, Launching Tuesdfay, June 25th

 Since August 4th, 2022, Warner Bros. Discovery among other children's TV outlets have been making idiots out of themselves illegally removing titles from their own streaming services that the companies themselves own the rights to, as well as making tax write-offs and cancelling in-development projects for stupid reasons and trying to make unneccessary lost media out of some of their latest releases. But now, after two years of being lazy, David Zaslav has been fired and justice for the Warner Bros. catalog of animated classics has been served.

To cap off an eventful 100th centennial anniversary alongside their pals at their fellow contenders ratings rivals at The Walt Disney Company, Warner Bros. and Discovery Communications have joined forces with MeTV owner Weigel Broadcasting Corporation to make an all-new 24/7 retro channel that reunites all the best faces across Warner Bros., Hanna-Barbara and Cartoon Network alike.

The all-new channel dubbed MeTV Toons, is slated to hit linear and streaming airwaves acrossd the nation on Tuesday June 25th, 2024. The new channel is basically a carbon copy and modern-day version of the existing WB/CN sister channel Boomerang, which also includes modern-day reruns of all the great classic WB titles and some forgotten gems from the 1930s and beyond.

At launch, MeTV Toons will have the following titles available:
Betty Boop
Bugs Bunny & Friends
Casper the Friendly Ghost
Freakazoid
The Flinstones
Huckleberry Hound
Inspector Gadget
The Jetsons
Johnny Quest
Josie and the Pussycats
Looney Tunes
Magilla Gorilla
Popeye the Sailor Man
Rocky and Bullwinkle
Scooby Doo, Where Are You?!
Secret Squirrels
The Smurfs
Spped Racer
Tom & Jerry
Top Cat
Touche Turtle
Wacky Races
Woody Woodpecker
Yogi Bear

Although the library on the new network currently consists of only titles of cartoons owned by Warner Bros. Discovery and aired on either Disney Channel, Disney XD, Cartoon Network, Cartoonito, Boomerang, The CW, Adult Swim or their predecessors The WB, Kids' WB, Toon Disney, Jetix, UPN and Fox Kids, both sides are currently in talks to license other retro animated TV series from their lineup, including several titles from Disney's former exotic lions and Chinese zodiac partners at MGM, the company behind the Broadway staples The Wizard of Oz and Singing in the Rain, the former in which will enter the public domain in a few years time.

MeTV Toons is the latest offering of retro television for today's general audiences, following on the heels of the recently launched PBS Retro on Roku, the SVOD revivalof Noggin which will be shutting down on Tuesday July 2nd and the formerly broadcasted Vault Disney/Disney Replay and NickRewind blocks aired across Disney Channel and TeenNick respectively.
