Huh. Well what do you know about that? I guess this explains the changes coming up with their website and Boomerang.

Ten bucks say his replacement will manage to be even worse anyway.

Are you the forum cynic or am I just imagining things? wink

No, you aren't imagining I'm the forum's realist.

Stuart Snyder's leaving Cartoon Network?

Here's to hoping we finally get that Megas XLR revival soon!

Being realistic would mean that you'd consider both sides, not just the negative possibility.

I dunno, after CN Real, it seems like Snyder made a genuine attempt to be good.

It's probably just me, though.

I still can't see the article.

Well this is sudden! What happened!?

[up] Your guess is as good as mine, man. But you know what?

Who cares?

Let's just soak in these good news and do our best to not jinx it.

Sound good?

Article says there was a regime change at Turner, and that Snyder and the new president had some tension between them. As of yet there's nothing about who Snyder's replacement is.

I get the feeling he wasn't the only one Snyder had tension with honestly. Just a hunch, no information backing it up.

"Cartoon Network is best known for Adult Swim", huh? .... explains why the block is getting yet ANOTHER extra hour this Spring!

Snyder, whatever happens with him happens.

Does the article mean Jeff Bewkes is gone too? Because I can't stand that guy. If he's gone there's at least a chance a lot of good things could happen.

He is (or was) the head of all of Turner that runs CN, WB, and DC. The guy doesn't believe in allowing the divisions to support each other. Which is one of the likely reasons CN and WB have a rift with each other. Like how it's only recently Looney Tunes came back after not being on CN for several years.

Far as I can tell Bewkes is the CEO of Time Warner, Turner's parent company. Turner is the one that got the changes, not Time Warner.

Didn't they already lose it a long time ago?
