EVERYTHING MUST GO! - Warner Bros. Discovery's HBO Max To Illegally Remove Almost EVERY Cartoon Network Series by 2026/27 As SVOD Channel Shifts to More Adult Focused Content

It's the mother of all closing down sales as Warner Bros. Discovery continues to illegally remove programs and movies from its own HBO Max streaming service that they own their own copyrights to, as WBD and David Zaslav continues their five years reign as the stupidest children's television company on the planet since August 2022. In less than two years time, almost ALL of WBD's Cartoon Network, Adult Swim, Cartoonito, HBO, HBO Family and Boomerang lineup will be no more on the service.

Among the titles flocking the coop include almost every Scooby Doo series, The Flinstones, The Jetsons, The Tom & Jerry Show, Adventure Time, The Amazing World of Gumball, Batman: The Animated Series and preschool favorites such as the recently launched Sesame Workshop series Bea's Block, Baby Looney Tunes, Blippi Wonders, Lollabee City Farm, Sesame Street: Mecha Builders and the HBO Family Jam classic fairytales adaptations Happilly Ever After: Fairytales for Every Child.

Paramount's hit Comedy Central animated foul-mouth sitcom South Park has also left the streamer as Paramount had successfully gotten Zaslav fired and sued the comp[any for lying to them about their episode counts when the streamer was originally offered a deal to produce three seasons of ten episodes each, but the outcome ended with only two episodes in Season 22 and Seasons 23 and 24 both having six episodes each, bringing the order to a mear 14 episodes, half the promised amount.

The only upside positive news however is that it will be purging the first seven seasons of Teen Titans Go!, the 2013 reboot of the 2003-2006 iconic DC Comics series which many YouTubers have declaired the worst CN show ever existed.

The new illegal content purge of HBO Max means that more CN and WBD titles will be sent into public domain and pirated free video websites for no reason, although for the troubled WBD streamer now in its fifth anniversary to accidentally remove this much just seems confusing.

By 2027, the only good kids titles that will be available on HBO Max is the 2015-2025 contract deal of Sesame Street which ends after the 55th season on 9/11, the Mo Willems shorts from the Scholastic Video Collection series produced by Weston Woods Studios, the upcoming Mo Willems' Unlimited Squirrels! and Cat the Cat's Show with YOU! TV show adaptations, Dtylan's Playground Adventures, the preschool-focused MSB reboot The Magic School Bus: Mighty Explorers and the recently successful Mattel, Hit Entertainment and Nelvana reboot series Barney & Friends: Barney's World which is currently in its first five episodes with the next five slated to release weekly on Cartoonito linear from January 17th.

As of right now, it's currently unknown whether these WBD, CN and HBO Max titles will be available to watch on once they end their current streaming deal on WBD's own channel, though most people have speculate that Zaslav's company will be bought by Disney since they recently accidentally stolen some of the Cartoon Network and Warner Bros. catalogs in their recent merger with Hulu with the launch of the new Hulu on Disney+ section on Disney+ SVOD that launched in March 2024.
