The announcement on Wednesday of Infinity Train, OKKO, Summer Camp Island, The Fungies and many other shows being taken off of HBOMax was a shock to all of us. Not just to fans, but to the creators and artists that made the shows as well. I had no idea it was coming, neither did any other show creator I’ve talked with, nor any of their representatives.
People have been working behind the scenes for days now trying to figure out what’s going on. A thousand phone calls, texts, and emails have been sent, but the problem is that the entirety of Warner and Discovery is undergoing a merger. This means that people who you would normally talk to have been fired, moved, or quit, so no one has any idea how to get the information they need right now. This is the same thing that happened in the early months of the merger with AT&T. Never cheer for a corporate merger, they help about 100 people and hurt thousands.
they help about 100 people and hurt thousands.
That is incredibly optimistic, I'd say they help exactly the 20 or so people in the executive board of each company lol.

cool now do capitalism
Idea for a bit, guy who wants communism only because he wants every treat to have a crossover with every other treat after we nationalize all the corporations
Haha yeah that's definitely a bit and not relatable in any way. And also the treats are free
I'd say it depends on the age and kid. It addresses some serious topics and scenarios but with a cartoon and silly moments and jokes.
1st, 2nd and 4th seasons are fine, they do adress some serious topics and each one has at least one shocking scene but I believe most children would be fine watching it
3rd season however is significantly darker than the rest of the show, i'd say a 10+ or even 12+ min age depending onthe kid is good
I couldn't imagine how emotionally gutting it would be to see something you made get scrubbed away like that. To have its existence just destroyed
so no one has any idea how to get the information they need right now
Bullshit. People know but aren't saying because they don't want to risk their neck by getting ahead of an official statement. Most of these people will have personal relationships in these companies and information moves around pretty easily.
to be fair they briefly set their twitter bio to "Creator of #InfinityTrain, a show that got pulled from @HBOMax and can now only be pirated"
idk what the fungies is but the other 3 were good shows and didn't deserve this shit
