variety.com/2021/tv/news/cartoon-network-studios-new-animated-shorts-program-1234952382/Not much grand context at the moment except it'll be stuff shown on both Cartoon Network and HBO Max and it'll follow the original model of it being a platform for creators who had never lead a cartoon before but considering that the original set of shorts basically ushered in a modern golden age of TV animation...yeah, I can see the potential of this being great.

I doubt it. Besides, no one makes fun of TTG anymore ever since the show stopped getting so antsy about its critics.

A little surprised Bravest Warrior never got picked up tho it was on VRV I love Bravest Warriors but I'm not sure where it would fit in terms of network TV. It's not quite adult enough to be Adult Swim worthy but a bit too adult to be Cartoon Network worthy, for example. But then if it wasn't on VRV, you'd be losing a centrepiece so I guess that's why it was there for so long. But fun fact, it's also on Amazon Prime internationally, I think.

And just to mention, I really do hope this works out considering, like, we're still seeing the effects of the first Cartoon Cartoons run even now (Laura Faust going from supervising on Powerpuff Girls to doing her own shows for the network being one of many, many, many examples).

I think you can put it on Adult Swim in the same way Final Space is put on there. It is part of the block but not exactly advertised as an Adult Swim show but a late night more mature show

Not gonna lie, I haven't seen a Teen Titans Go marathon in forever. It seems like every time I turn on Cartoon Network nowadays, it's twelve hours straight of The Amazing World of Gumball.

Good Bring a whole new generation to something from the past that led to great series I mean Cartoon Cartoons are arguably the best thing to come from CN. Johnny Bravo, Original PPG, Dexter's Lab, I Am Weasel to name a few.

Hopefully it'll go well but being Cartoon Network anything they do pick up will probably be aired super erratically with little hype and then abruptly cancelled.
I'm still bitter about OK KO getting done dirty even if it did go out on a high note.
Going by the thumbnails though, I'm mostly interested in Mouth Wash Madness and Harmony in Despair, both of those are very eyecatching.

In their defense, a big reason for OK KO ending was because of…things we can’t talk about here involving a merger not being approved because of certain people so that’s less on Cartoon Network themselves but I get the concern.

Fair enough. While we're on the subject, let HBO Max do more Infinity Train you cowards.

Fruit Stand looks like it'd be gorgeous.
And if the Hungy Ghost has a voice, can they please get Johnny Hungie himself for it?
