That’s an easy way to write down debt
people who haven’t watched Sesame Street in 30 years are mad the 1981 season isn’t available? People who had years to watch Seth Rogans American pickle upset because that and like 5 other movies aren’t an option now when they never would have watched the shyt anyways?
Look some of the non popular they spent loads in star pay and no one watched is an easy decision to wipe off.
But a lot of their animated titles are really popular online with dedicated fanbases. Hell some of the staff is saying they had a fully produced season in the can waiting for a release date. That is coming from them saying they have no desire to focus on kids and family entertainment content. Animation is really expensive
Same with the reality show division. They claim Max was spending up to 2milly an episode when they produce all of their discovery shyt for 500k per. That's why they chopped that shyt down
"Family" entertainment is now strictly watching some holiday themed baking competition or people shopping for houses.
Sesame street needs to be preserved, HBO should have never purchased it. That would have been a no Brainer purchase for Disney tbh
This the first streamer to totally erase content too. Terms of the write down is that it can't be available on any iteration except if it's been paid for (like buying episodes on amazon)
I'm not giving McKinsey consultants a lick of credit. fukk them and anybody who love em lol
