Over the last two years, when streaming services (like HBO Max) has been cutting content, animated shows were among the first ones to cut. Among the first ones to go were Infinity Train, OK K.O., Close Enough, Summer Camp Island, and many others were among the first to be cut. Then more shows that aired on Cartoon Network. This year, Chowder, Gumball, Regular Show, and Steven Universe were dropped from Warner’s streaming platform Max.

Just recently, Disney+ cut Hailey’s On It from their platform, showing that even Disney is starting to purge animated shows.

Do major studios hate cartoons these days? Has animation became a thing in the past?
