Fuck you WarnerBrothersMaxHBOChipJoannaGainesDiscovery (Removing original Looney Tunes from streaming)

Original 'Looney Tunes' No Longer Available On Max

Quote

That’s all folks. The original Looney Tunes animated shorts, which ran during the golden age of animation from 1930 through 1969, have been scrubbed by Warner Bros. Discovery-owned Max.

Deadline confirmed with a representative that the original shorts are no longer on Max. This is part of a new plan whereby the streamer will prioritize adult and family programming. Children’s programming, such as Looney Tunes and Sesame Street before it, doesn’t fare as well and is no longer viewed as a priority.

I've watched so many of these with my kids.

What will we do now?

I bought a big set of them on Blu-ray or DVD a while back when my kids were young. This is also why I keep a Blu-ray player, because of streaming shenanigans like this.

I'm just happy Disney+ put a bunch of the old Mickey shorts on there a while back.  For some reason, my little ones love Steamboat Willie and a bunch of the old 'uns.

FWIW you should consider ripping that media to a hard drive. Disc rot is real, and a minor manufacturing defect can lead unreadable media after a decade or two 

Ironically, the old WB cartoons were not created as children's entertainment.  They were created as filler to be shown between features at the local theaters, along with short features and newsreels.  Sure, the animation and slapstick parts do appeal to kids, but much of the humor was aimed at adults and would have gone over the heads of the average kid.
