The original Looney Tunes animated shorts, which ran from 1930 to 1969, have officially been removed from Warner Bros. Discovery's streaming platform, Max. This comes as a surprise after the streamer reassured audiences in late 2023 that the classic shorts would not be leaving the platform after an erroneous removal listing caused public outcry. As Max pulls classic Looney Tunes shorts from its library, the franchiseâs latest animated movie, The Day The Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Story, quietly made its debut in theaters on March 14.
Now, Deadline has reported that Looney Tunes has been intentionally pulled off Maxâs platform, despite the companyâs previous insistence that the shorts would remain available. Looney Tunes has been scrubbed off the platform following the removal of Sesame Street content and the shutdown of Cartoon Networkâs website as the streamer continues to prioritize adult and family programming over childrenâs animation.
