Guys I’m starting to think the dipshit billionaire owners at Discovery know absolutely sweet fuck-all about managing entertainment and news companies.

You forgot the Warner Brothers part. Don’t they scrap fully finished films on the reg for a tax write off?
Edit: This is the work of one man, David Zaslav - President of Discovery. So I was wrong but I learned something.

They should be forced to sell the property to the feds in exchange for the write off.
RIP. I remember playing flash games there and voting for which shows we want to be aired more back in the day.
Customer engagement? Brand building? What’s that??? You’ll take the cheap crappy reality programming we give you and like it!
Maximum Enshiffication continues.
Happy cake day!
That's really disappointing. Not just because there's a lot of video content that's now lost, but there were also games and other things for kids to do on that site.
I feel like I just watched a playground get bulldozed.
What's extra shitty is Max doesn't even have a great selection of Cartoon Network stuff anymore.
🏴☠️
what a bunch of tools. its not like they couldnt make that content available to max while maintaining the very valuable CN branded site.
and these are among companies claiming they have to pay CEOs/executives millions and millions of dollars for 'limited talent'
go fuck yourselves.
Isn't it still a cable TV product? Does that not justify some brand presence?
It's funny that the second-tier random broadcast Channel 83.5s that run old episodes of Law & Order 24/7 have a website and advertise "stream the channel online!" and a higher profile product can't.
The enshittification will continue until moral collapses and you accept your fate.
Do we not have federal organizations specifically for how Warner is destroying the competitor it bought?
This is all one specific asshole burning through a significant portion of the industry. By all appearances - because he feels like it.
I was actually watching the free episodes on there weekly. Fuck.
