They currently have only 4 cartoons currently in production >Craig of the Creek >Jessica's Big Little World >We Baby Bears >Primal
Everything else is either cancelled (all the Max originals, Gross Girls, Driftwood movie), a miniseries that finished already (Unicorn), or is done by an outside studio like WB Animation. It gives more credence to the rumor that WB Animation, Cartoon Network Studios and Hanna Barbera Europe are all going to dissolve into one TV animation studio, likely keeping the WB name.
Unicorn: Warriors Eternal and Invincible Fight Girl are still in production for CN, Adventure Time: Fionna & Cake is still in production for HBO Max, the Cartoon Cartoons shorts are still being made, and they have a shitton of stuff in development. the only things that got cut under Discovery were made-for-streaming movies like Driftwood. studio is far from dead (though that doesn't mean it's safe from being folded into WB Animation)

What about Gross Girls and Battu? I'm under the impression those two were quietly cancelled mid-production because we haven't heard shit about either project in a good while.
>the only things that got cut under Discovery were made-for-streaming movies like Driftwood. And all the Max originals made by CN Studios
Ian Reed
Battu's announcement was only that CN had picked up the rights to develop it, not that it was in production. it's still a ways off from being greenlit as a full show if the network wants it. Gross Girls probably was canceled since I can't find anyone that's been hired on it in the past year. this is just stuff I'm seeing from looking at the LinkedIns and social media bios of CN Studios employees, I'm not an insider or anything
nope, we would've heard from animation twitter complaining or from official sources if any TV shows from CN Studios (besides Close Enough) were canceled at HBO Max
Joshua Perry
This, but those shows are also in danger of cancellation with the way the CEO is fucking up
John Rogers
We did hear complaining from the Tigs and Seek bg artist and Julia Pott for their shows being cancelled and removed
Bentley Collins
Aren't they doing the new PPG and Foster with Craig?
Charles Clark
That's for HB Europe and it hasn't officially been greenlit yet according to Craig
Connor Lee
Most of their budget right now is going towards the shorts program which you conveniently didn't mention in your post to make it seem like CN is doing worse than it actually is. Not to mention the other unannounced cartoons they have in development
are we finally getting CN leaks on Any Forums? thank goodness
Austin Hill
>WB Animation There would be no loss if all of these went under the same 'name' - I would have kept Hanna Barbera in the same way that Universal kept Focus and that 20th Century Fox kept Fox Searchlight, but HB wouldn't need a huge staff for what I would them be doing.
As long as content is being made, CN Studios is pointless. It's a historic relic to the days that Ted Turner forced AOL/Time Warner to keep his shitty Turner Networks companies as their own things so he could point out in board room meetings how successful HIS ideas were in comparison to something that was a Warner's idea or an AOL idea. It's the reason that Cartoon Network would purposely and intentionally hurt a fellow part of what was their entire company, e.g. DC Comics, or Warner Brothers, simply because they had the mind set that they needed to compete with one another.
It was actually one of the few good things that AT&T did which was getting rid of the stupid old silo systems - which should have disappeared when Ted was forced off the board. Jason Kilar should have gotten rid of CN Studios last year.

Their current shorts program will end up like Cartoonstitute, because both are being done during a recession.
William Collins
Is this an actual project in development, or is it another one of those #BetterCartoon pitch?
Jordan Garcia
Why the art is similar to the Recess Reboot/Sequel for Disney+?
Because there's a decent chance these are fake leaks some autist who has artist skills have been making up
Xavier Hernandez
It's been over 30 years. Let Cartoon Network die.
Justin Evans
>Adventure Time: Fionna & Cake is still in production for HBO Max Wrong, they are no longer producing any animation for HBO Max At best it will be aired on a different service if it's completed
Joseph Phillips
It's fucking Adventure Time, user. Until officially stated, we should expect the Fionna & Cake miniseries to still make it onto HBO Max.
