In the now, man
That sounded suspicious to me, so I pulled up the HBO Max promo clip shared months ago. The first piece of footage used comes from "Devil May Hare", which is on Boomerang. There's also a classic Scooby-Doo clip near the end, which is also prominently featured on the app.

Would be weird to have footage like this featured if they won't be on here.

I really thought Boomerang would merge into HBO Max...guess I was wrong.

There are a lot of families don't want to sub HBO but keep Boomerang so WarnerMedia seems smart to keep separated, however most if not all Boomerang programmings will be included in HBO Max but Boomerang will continue to offer as standalone for anyone aren't interested in HBO Max.

As was expected, Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs is now off Boomerang. Season 1 (the episodes Boomerang had available) is on Netflix, but I wouldn't be surprised if it ended up on CBS All Access (where Season 2 is streaming) later on.

Eh, fine. The show didn't really fit Boomerang's mission statement, anyway. CN only added that so they wouldn't have to support it on their network.

I'm sure that will be same case for Care Bears: Unlock the Magic so they could be removed from Boomerang eventually (just prediction).

The difference with Care Bears: Unlock the Magic is that it actually fits Boomerang's mission statement and that it's airing on the Boomerang TV channel as well as the streamer.

NEW MOVIE: Tom and Jerry's Giant Adventure!

Please let me know what else I missed.
Nothing. That's all.

I honestly don't understand Boomerang's chronic drip-feeding of content lately. WarnerMedia said they're still going to exist after HBO Max launches, but it looks like they're winding down even though they likely aren't. Getting mixed signals here.

Also, are they really just going to sit on Yabba Dabba Dinosaurs and the remaining episodes of Dorothy and the Wizard of Oz until HBO Max launches?

Thank you, and I have a feeling that Yabba Dabba Dinosaurs may come to HBO Max instead.

Not all of Family Guy has aged well (and he knows this - hell, he's friends with the PTC president now) but I genuinely think Seth MacFarlane is a really good guy.
Imagine a broadcast TV network giving someone who worked at the Golden Age of Cartoon Network the opportunity to worked on a show, and doing 8 interviews, only to completely ghosted him for weeks for absolutely no reason.



Try to wrap your head around on that one, folks.

Seriously. Explain that to me, Memorable Entertainment Television? :/
Didn't notice that the site was back...

I'll start off by saying X-Men 97 has been a blast to watch. As someone who grew up exposed to the films and cameos on other shows, it was definitely a different treat seeing how both iterations of the franchise handle the characters and their world.
Professor X's speech in today's episode was powerful ... nuff said.
I've ground my wisdom tooth down overtime so that I can clench my jaw properly again. It's equal parts good and bad news.
Daffy Duck turns 87 today. Happy birthday to my favorite Looney Tune!
