Every Cartoon ERASED From Streaming

As we enter the end of the streaming wars we're seeing more cartoons get deleted from various platforms, even those created as original programming for these services! Close Enough, Infinity Train, Steven Universe: the Movie, Pantheon, Little Demon, Rugrats 2021, Big Nate and so much more have been removed from Max, Hulu, Paramount Plus, etc. and not all of these shows have new homes to go to! With the state of the industry, it feels appropriate to shed some light and run down every cartoon deleted from streaming!

Something worth also mentioning is all the Dreamworks Animated shows that were removed from Netflix that were made as a deal to be “Netflix Originals”. Some, like the Puss in Boots show, found their way to Peacock, where hopefully they’ll stay for a while, but others, like the banger Mr. Peabody and Sherman show and the underrated All Hail King Julien show are still stuck in an “only available on digital marketplaces” limbo. Hate to see it 😭

The toyline was discontinued after a year and these days it's near impossible to find Rise merch in stores; it's all Mutant Mayhem now.

Cartoon preservation is something that needs to be done i hope that people understand that preservation is important.

[@hunterolaughlin]

This is why the Library of Congress really should create a new preservation program similar to the National Film Registry and the National Recording Registry dedicated to preserving pieces of TV history. It’s not just cartoons should be preserved, but also a lot of TV shows, especially the older ones from the 50s, 60s and 70s considering a lot of episodes from beloved shows from those decades can be considered lost. I mean, it only took till 2 years ago for the infamous Sesame Street episode featuring Margaret Hamilton reprising her role as the Wicked Witch of the West to finally be publicly uploaded online!

Endorse piracy my friends, it saves these shows.

Am sure infinity train will find it way back on streaming one Day

[@thisithis]

This kinda bullshit happened well before the streaming wars even started, just try to find the 1994 American Invasion animated miniseries by Dreamworks. All you'll find is half ass recordings from an unknown network. Universal Studios refuses to release American Invasion on DVD or Blu-Ray or any kinda streaming network like there own Peacock.

[@XJIcequeen]

Wait! Blue's Clues and You getting removed doesn't make any sense! It was renewed for a 5th season back in 2022 but only aired up to season 4!

Netflix's Turbo F.A.S.T. is no longer on the platform. Despite being Netflix's first animated original series.

[@EvanFar_]

The fact this shit happens feels like it's for no reason. From what I've seen they take away budget or attention from good/decent things they have to put it into more (bad) things because of well, money. (Edit: I could get into this a lot more, but my keyboard is like broken) (Edit #2: It doesn't apply to just "good" shows/movies/content)

[@TwinRiver100]

that's kind of weird that Infinity Train is labeled TV-MA i mean, yeah it does do dark stuff. But it's kids show level dark like on the level that you might see in a kids movie from the 1980s. It's not Game of Thrones Level or anything. I think they need to re-evaluate that rating and fix that on KZbin.

[@jonbrewer297]

To me, TV-MA is Game of Thrones or South Park. Infinity Train, first, is not even an amoral universe. You accumulate enough good karma (as indicated by your number going down), you can leave. You accumulate enough bad karma, a giant palmetto bug (Think cockroaches that can fly.) eats you.

[@SupHapCak]

People are too soft these days. Everything is either rainbows and unicorns or it’s only for adults. Kids can be exposed to dark or mature themes as long as there isn’t excessive gore, graphic sex, or a bunch of vulgarity.

[@memebot6490]

That was a rating screw up. It's not really MA

The Very first show removed from Paramount+ was both versions of Danger Mouse but those weren't originals. Plus, The 80's Series is on Netflix and the 2016 Series is on some kids app (also Netflix but it's missing sesson 3 on there) Also, everytime Paramount purges a show, they play or make more ads that say Paramount is the home of Nickelodeon

[@myau9912]

Not a day goes by where I don't miss Mao Mao. It practically ended on a cliffhanger too. When it moved to Max, season 1 had already ended so it had nothing new and I had no reason to sign up for it. They couldnt even be bothered to test if a fresh season 2 would bring in views.

[@Feurigel1806]

Same. I was so excited for MaoMao season 2, but then they just cancelled it without even telling :( And as far as I know season 2 is finished, they just never released it. I really hope it leaks someday xD

[@RGBunni]

The pessimist in me suspects it’s only a matter of time before a streaming service purges something so big that the whole world will uprise (like Steven Universe, SpongeBob, Adventure Time, Gravity Falls, or The Owl House) and unfortunately I feel like the uprising of such a purge will be the only thing that gets the companies to realized they messed up big time.

[@CryptidCatArtz]

I swear to God if they mess with any of these shows the apocalypse will happen! XD

[@frozenolafnick5813]

THIS IS WHY INDIE ANIMATION IS THE BEST OPTION!!! Simply because they take a chance, and wait at least to get through a second season before even thinking about canceling it. And they don’t just cancel the show if it’s not as popular cause they know it has a decent enough audience for their brand to stay a float and they have some other shows that have hit it big to justify it staying. And even if it got canceled, they KEEP IT UP. If the takedowns keep happening with big companies, then eventually everyone will just move to indie animation and indie studios in general for TV and then the entertainment industry as a whole will have to rethink it’s approach. God I hate streaming sometimes.

[@andrewmulert]

That's why everyone SHOULD move to Indie Animation, but not necessarily WHY they will move. Starting Indie Animation takes a lot of work, time, and money, that's why we still have these huge corporations calling the shots no matter how many shows die in the crossfire

[@icemarvel0791]

Not to mention all of max anime Catalog just disappeared

[@omegadrive9999]

That's because Warner Bros. (even before Zaslav) Sold Crunchyroll to Sony who merged it with Funimation. But Disney added a new ip infinity stone, syndication of Anime on Hulu / Disney+. Just about every major Crunchyroll Shonen Anime is on there (except for the most recent season for some, but that could just be a exclusively window thing.) not to mention exclusives like Bleach: 1000 Year Blood War and Akira Toriyama's Sand Land.

[@ZeepTheWocky]

That was a long time ago.

[@charliet627]

I wish there was more infinity train. It could have been so good

[@calvinboucher5741]

It’s honestly so wild how Final Space only ever gets a passing mention in these types of videos. It was one of the first big victims of the media purge and nobody seemed to give a shit outside of fans. Like you straight can’t legally buy or watch it anymore on anything regardless of country and most people didn’t give it a fair chance when it was actively airing new episodes.

[@francoalmiron5107]

It's just sad how Warner and Nick are getting their shows on streaming services screwed just because is either due to taxes or because it's not that popular, by this point i wouldn't be surprised if content from both services end up on other streaming platforms like Netflix or Disney Plus as they at least don't get deleted by an excuse like that.

[@WeedleWill]

I’ll never forgive Max for taking off Clarence😡

[@danielkim1024]

That is so true.. at first I thought the real reason why Cartoons were getting deleted from streaming was because of the budget issue or the lack of artist.. but now it's because of other shows that has different ideas are getting removed and replaced.. this would mean that all animated cartoons will be gone for good..!

[@ShadowWolfRising]

If I may, Accursed Farms is doing a massive Campaign to make it so Game Developers are forced to make it so you keep access to games you purchased. Perhaps aiding him there could lead to a way to protect Cartoons (As well as other Movies and TV Shows.) in the future?
