Paramount+ UK took a couple of years for it to expand on its Nickelodeon content. It was bare bones dry in the beginning.

I imagine Sky new a whole lot longer than Channel 4 about HBO Max coming to the UK, so I don't know why their content didn't commit exodus together, instead of Channel becoming the first victim. Now, it's waiting months to see what content HBO Max will even put on the site.

Unicorn: Warriors Eternal.

Idiot.

Didn't know that Genndy Tartakovsky created another Adult Swim besides Primal, Unicorn: Eternal Warriors.

That's all folks for a main hub for UK viewers to watch Adult Swim beyond YouTube clips.

The collection page is still up but it's all broken and doesn't work right.

An end of an era, it seems. The final nail in the coffin for Adult Swim in the UK? 18 yrs on and off.

I'm not crying, you're crying.

A phony, a big fat phony!

Hanna-Barbera Wiki @hbgrifkuba.bsky.social · 21h

I was thinking of making sure to not have pages for fictional versions for celebrity guests in The Eric Andre Show, unlike Coast to Coast, but then the first episode has another guy playing George Clooney. So, the show is just make believe really. Every celebrity could've been played by a phony.

There's two UK adverts for Wonderfully Weird World: One that just treats it as if it's a new series with no connection to Amazing World, and another that does. I like the latter, especially because Cartoon Network devotes almost 24 hours to it.

In the Gumball House, In the Gumball House
Duck, dodge, push, and shove
This is how we show our love

(Gumball, Darwin, and Anais sound like Loud House characters now)

I know this may be because some of its content goes directly to the Channel 4 app, but Mike Tyson Mysteries did air on E4, according to other sites. 2/2

Hanna-Barbera Wiki @hbgrifkuba.bsky.social · 1d

@regularcapital.bsky.social Right when Channel 4 is ejected its Adult Swim content, I decided to look up Mike Tyson Mysteries dates, and using TV 24 guide, which can go back a few years, but blanks out a lot of Adult Swim shows after Sept. 26, 2024. 1/2

Invincible Fight Girl is on Prime Video UK, and even at a discount, but still at the wrong time for me. Oh, well...

Hanna-Barbera Wiki @hbgrifkuba.bsky.social · 1d

What was surprising is that Birdgirl was uncensored in the UK, when the Adult Swim US website that I used with VPN had it censored. Don't know what HBO Max UK will be like, but there will definitely be something lost having it gone from Channel 4.

Hanna-Barbera Wiki @hbgrifkuba.bsky.social · 1d

Invincible Fight Girl left earlier than the other Adult Swim shows on Channel 4. Apparently HBO Max is coming to the UK early in 2026, and this is why. Unfortunately, they couldn't have left it on Channel 4 a little longer.

I bloody hope these ditched shows do pop up on HBO Max UK, then.

ThunderCats/Powerpuff Girls didn't live up to its full potential. It had the same writer from the main Dynamite Powerpuff Girls series, but Pauline Ganucheau doesn't write them the same. She writes them more like the 2016 reboot. And where is the Mojo/Mumm-Ra team-up?

Hanna-Barbera Wiki @hbgrifkuba.bsky.social · 1d

ThunderCats/Powerpuff Girls ended in a cute, Planet of the Apes-type twist ending (that will likely not be followed up like Tim Burton's version), and the Powerpuff Girls kinda ended up being true to character portrayals, and it had enough winks for ThunderCats fans, but it was so unfulfilling.

Great! Thanks. I will be watching without a doubt (since we're always on CN anyway, it will happen by default lol).

One review for ThunderCats/The Powerpuff Girls #3 was improved over the last two. It wasn't. It had the same problems.

Also, is the narrator in that supposed to be the same narrator from The Powerpuff Girls?
