After Netflix gutted their animation department and canceled a slew of their announced projects back in May, HBO Max appears to have taken the "hold my beer" approach and followed suit by absolutely gutting their own animated offerings on the platform. The streamer has already been quietly removing a number of films and series since the merger between Warner Bros. and Discovery, but today's announcement was an absolute bloodbath, with animated projects taking the brunt of it all. Nearly 40 titles either already have been or will be removed from HBO Max by the end of the week, including 20 HBO Max originals. "As we work toward bringing our content catalogs together under one platform, we will be making changes to the content offering available on both HBO Max and discovery+," the streamer said in a statement. "That will include the removal of some content from both platforms." Yeah, yeah, the official statement is cute and all, what with referring to

Earlier in the month, MultiChoice had begun testing out the homegrown lifestyle channel The Home Channel from Arena Holdings and Christian channel TBN from the company of the same name known as Trinity Broadcasting Network for a possible HD feature. After a few days, they've began adding two channels to the existing batch National Geographic and National Geographic Wild from The Walt Disney Company although children's brands Disney Channel and Disney Junior haven't been seen on the section just yet. But from what most remembered The Walt Disney Company is moving their content to Disney+ therefore closing a further channels with about 100 channels planned to go off-air in the near future with Disney XD, FOX and FOX Life to have tragically joined the list. So my question is why now especially when you know you'll have these channels for another year or two. Several consumers have demanded to have these channels in HD but were reluctant to get any of that. And I&#

The CW Television Network is about to have a new corporate parent. News broke on Monday that Nexstar, the largest owner of local television stations in the U.S., will acquire a 75% stake in the network after six months of negotiations . Current corporate co-owners Paramount and Warner Bros. Discovery will each maintain a 12.5% interest in the channel, and Nexstar will continue to order original programming from both company's television divisions, as well as elsewhere. The CW's current CEO, Mark Pedowitz, will remain in that position after the deal is finalized, which is expected to happen in Q3 2022.

SABC Children has been rumoured entertainment channel SABC in partnership with eMedia Investments failed to launch on the Openview platform in 2021 after the channel was spotted on Sentech and on DStv consumers MultiChoice had promised 3 SABC channels after eMedia's 4 channels went off-air at the time. SABC Children is currently broadcasting a digital service on the Tuluntulu app and interesting to note SABC Education was once a digital exclusive on the platform before getting a linear service in 2020 which just builds onto the suspicion.

In some old documents about the channel, SABC Children is said to provide content segmented into defined age categories with an investment emphasis on early child developmen

When two corporations merge a bunch of wild decisions are made that we should definitely be worrying about. A recent announcement revealed that HBO Max as you know it won't be sticking around for much longer and something else will be taking place. During an investor call, Warner Bros.

It will have a mix of old and new content with a lot of details still being left in the dark.
