When you're like "geez there's no animation jobs" "geez there's like no new shows anymore", this is why

also just on a personal note having worked at both WB and Netflix, I have no faith in either company and anything leadership says about a love of movies is a big fat lie. TCM (where I also once worked) leadership does their best to navigate bomb filled waters every day.

the issue here, especially with TCM, is more than half of its programming came from the Turner, and later WB, library. If you remove the network from the library, how is it going to afford to license 100% of its programming?
I just heard from someone at Netflix. TCM is apparently going with the other linear networks to Discovery Global.

Here is the official comment on what WBD assets will be acquired by Netflix:

"We are acquiring the film and television studios, HBO and HBO Max."

The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service

Finally ready to make this public… I was, very unexpectedly, given notice that I will be laid off on Christmas. My company has worked to keep me on! But… Reality is what it is.

Damn I wish all my mutuals would leave Substack and Spotify. I know it's a hassle to shift over to a new platform, but I promise it's worth your time in these cases!

While this article goes very rightly into the disrespect actors have faced in dubbing, underneath that is an entire ecosystem of abused and rushed freelancers doing the timecoding, adapting, directing, engineering, and mixing who Amazon also attempted to cut.
