The Flintstones
Seasons 4-6 of "THE FLINTSTONES" are also gone from HBO Max. Seems to have happened at the same time as yesterday's Looney Tunes disappearance, and it's a similar situation where only the second half of the program was removed. Why? Who knows. pic.twitter.com/R3M8Y3fnek

'Consider Them Zaslaved'
Y’know all of those beautifully remastered Looney Tunes cartoons that you enjoyed being able to watch again on @HBOMax (including the legendary Chuck Jones masterpieces of that era)… Well, consider them Zaslaved, because all shorts from 1951-on are gone.https://t.co/7vqKDcDVhS

Dropping the F Word...
So, all of the classic WB cartoons released from 1951 to 2004 are no longer on @hbomax. This includes many restored cartoons unavailable on home video in that form, as of now. Fuck, fuck, fuck you Zaslav.
