HBO Max is removing 36 shows ahead of Discovery+ merger
. A handful of Cartoon Network shows are leaving.
In a statement, HBO Max said content would disappear from both services as it worked to bring the media libraries"together under one platform." The provider didn't elaborate on its reasoning, althoughnoted that pulling the shows outright would help HBO Max avoid paying more royalties. Warner Bros. Discovery said it would find $3 billion in savings as part of the corporate merger.
As you might imagine, at least some affected producers aren't happy — this not only cuts off income, but might prevent people from seeing their work unless it finds another home.
