Max has dropped the original Warner Bros. cartoons from its lineup, which our TV critic says leaves us with the pastiche and is similar to removing books from a library.

While all of the original theatrical shorts were removed from the platform, not all Looney Tunes content is gone from Max. You can still stream the newer Looney Tunes Cartoons series that first came out in 2020 as well as 2015's New Looney Tunes. There are also two seasons of Tiny Toons Looniversity that remain on the platform.

Warner Bros. has removed all its original Looney Tunes animated shorts from its streaming service Max. The shorts ran during an almost 40-year period, between 1930 and 1969. This is part of the streamer's new plan to prioritize adult and family programming, as children's entertainment doesn't drive as much viewership.
