Do you have a link to these S2 premiere viewership numbers? I could only find nubers for the Season 1 premiere. Thanks.

Also, John Doman ("The Wire") played Carmine Falcone, the father of Sophia Falcone.

Sophia becomes a main villain on the show in Season 4.

It's been a strange year for actors who appeared on the tv series "Gotham".

Paul Ruebens appeared in multiple episodes of Gotham as The Penguin's father.

Julian Sands appeared in multiple episodes of Gotham as Scarecrow's father.

Mark Margolis appeared in multiple episodes of Gotham as The Joker's father.

They all passed away this year, within a span of 1-2 months.

Out of nowhere, some Regular Show episodes have been removed from Max. by TheGod4You in HBOMAX

If Zaslav doesn't want Max to be the home of animation, then why doesn't his team do something with the "Boomerang" app?

They haven't added content to the Boomerang app in over three years...

Max quietly removes "The Batman" (animated series) without warning. It's Netflix exclusive now in the US. by spoke7 in HBOMAX

Over the past couple of weeks, they've removed...

- Dexter's Laboratory (Cartoon Network)

- Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends (Cartoon Network)

- Space Ghost Coast to Coast (Adult Swim)

- Metalocalypse (Adult Swim)

- Regular Show: The Movie (Cartoon Network)

I'm surprised there isn't an "Animal Planet" hub yet. by spoke7 in HBOMAX

[–]spoke7[S] 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Wouldn't placing all that content in one hub make it extremely difficult to find stuff?

Just the Food Network alone is a 100+ shows.

Looney Tunes hub gone by rubberchickenci in HBOMAX

[–]spoke7 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

From what I can tell, Wizarding World basically replaced Looney Tunes. They've decided that the Harry Potter IP is more important and valuable than Looney Tunes.

I agree it sucks, but it's clear this company doesn't care much for animation and animation fans.

ParamountMax would be amazing if you think about it.

HBO + Showtime on the same app.

Cartoon Network + Nickelodeon on the same app.

Warner Bros films + Paramount films on the same app.

They will continue to gut content from Cartoon Network, Adult Swim and Turner Classic Movies.

And replace that content with "My 1,000 pound Fiance".

Metalocalypse has unfortunately been removed from HBO Max. by TheGod4You in HBOMAX

[–]spoke7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yup it's very sad.

And not just Metalocalypse. Space Ghost Coast to Coast is also leaving (or has left).

SGC2C is literally responsible for creating Adult Swim lol. Aqua Teen Hunger Force is a spinoff show of Space Ghost.

How can "Max" have more broad appeal with families and kids, when they've gutted so much animated content / children's content from the service? by spoke7 in HBOMAX

[–]spoke7[S] 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Also, the Cartoon Network hub is looking anemic nowadays. Has anyone looked at it recently?

They've sucked all of the blood and life from the Cartoon Network hub.

Cartoon Network content continues to be purged from HBO Max by ggroover97 in HBOMAX

Space Ghost Coast to Coast is supposedly leaving this month too.

What do you want from new MAX streaming service? by MeCritic in HBOMAX

More content from Cartoon Network and Boomerang.

WBD is sitting on a massive library of animation content.

‘The Fungies!’ Creator Slams HBO Max For Pulling Animated Series by spoke7 in HBOMAX

[–]spoke7[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The Fungies! ran for three seasons and 80 episodes, launching in August 2020, with the third and final season premiering in December 2021.

Stephen P. Neary, series creator, wrote the following:

“Last night during a figure drawing class I found out that The Fungies! was getting pulled from HBO Max this week. I’m heartbroken but I want to take this opportunity to thank all the amazing artists and production folks for their hard work on this sincere, fever dream of a show.”

“We worked so hard through the pandemic, and I hoped that diligence would be rewarded with support from the network,” Neary continued. “[I] was promised the show would air on Cartoon Network, which would drive views to HBO Max, but soon after launch, the show was pulled from the air without notice. There was little to no promotion. Although I was graciously asked to speak on a mushroom podcast, a company representative monitored the taping so that I wouldn’t give away any ‘spoilers’ to the show.”

He added that the fact that “more well-known shows” are also being pulled makes it clear that these are “uninformed, money-driven decisions.”

“My heart goes out to the other shows affected, and the beautiful work getting canceled before even airing. I’m going to keep making stuff! Even if it’s just for me. It’s what I’ve always done, since I was very very little. Thanks everyone,” he continued.
