Given the constant delays and the disastrous Netflix release failure. should Viacom consider transferring the trademark and master tapes of Pinky Malinky to another company?

I know selling a Nicktoon sounds weird, but this series could have an advantage that others don't have: a search on the copyright catalog of the U.S. does not yeld any results despite even the unreleased episodes of Welcome to the Wayne being copyrighted, meaning that the show could possibly be uncopyrighted.

This is all speculation since we don't have any official source about Pinky Malinky's copyright status, but if the show is indeed uncopyrighted, do you think the weiner could have another chance on a different network?

Well, they did sell Doug to Disney, but I don't see who would want to buy Pinky Malinky. I heard that it is terrible.

We don't know yet if Pinky will be terrible, since we haven't seen the episodes of the full series yet.

Actually Jim Jenkins owned the rights to Doug and he was allowed to sell it to another studio since Nick only produced 52 of the promised 65 episodes.

Right behind you.
I know this is late and it's already been released, but CN did make the Pinky Malinky pilot. If anyone were to buy it, it would be them.

I don't know why you added Universal Kids, or who voted for them.
