Recently, we've seen old Warner Bros. cartoons appearing on Discovery Family, about a year after WBD was founded. But even during this era, Hasbro is still trying to force and shove their shows into the channel's schedule, like they did with The Adventures of Chuck and Friends and Littlest Pet Shop: A World of Our Own. And now, where Pony Life and World of Our Own used to be, Looney Tunes is now taking the 1PM timeslot on weekdays. Under this situation, I'm sensing a war between the two companies over the channel, where's it all: "Hasbro, you're giving us a hard time adding WB cartoons to our channel. You must leave at once immediately and find a new home. Besides, you're causing worldwide censorship to some of your own shows." "NO!!! WE DEMAND ANOTHER 3 MORE YEARS WITH YOU!! WE REFUSE TO LEAVE EVEN IF IT MEANS ALL CABLE AND NO STREAMING!!"

With Hasbro Studios is still refusing to leave Discovery Family, here's the current stats of its shows' availabilities on streaming that I could find: My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic - Netflix (seasons 1-4), N/A (season 5-8), Hulu (season 9) Pound Puppies - Tubi The Adventures of Chuck and Friends - Tubi G.I. Joe: Renegades - Tubi Transformers: Prime - Netflix (season 1), Tubi (seasons 2-3) Transformers: Rescue Bots - Netflix (season 1), KiDoodleTV (season 2), N/A (seasons 3-4) Kaijudo: Rise/Clash of the Duel Masters - N/A Littlest Pet Shop - Tubi Blazing Team: Masters of Yo Kwon Do - N/A Transformers: Prime Wars Trilogy - N/A Hanazuki: Full of Treasures - N/A (formerly on YouTube) Littlest Pet Shop: A World of Our Own - N/A Transformers: Rescue Bots Academy - Netflix (season 1), N/A (season 2) My Little Pony: Pony Life - N/A Chomp Squad - N/A Taylor Swift: Journey to Fearless - N/A Hubworld - N/A Clue - Tubi Family Game Night - N/A Pictureka! - Tubi The Game of Life - N/A Scrabble Showdown - N/A Transformers Prime Beast Hunters: Predacons Rising - N/A (formerly on Netflix; removed way back in 2018) My Little Pony G3 - Hulu All Equestria Girls films and specials - KiDoodleTV That's right, more than half of everything made by Hasbro Studios is unavailable anywhere at this time.

I really cannot choose just one, since I am a HUGE Disney fan, always subscribing to Disney+. But if I had to, I'd choose Toy Story, since I grew up with that as a kid.

In the last couple of weeks, we lost two celebrities: Bob Barker and Steve Harwell. Bob Barker was the previous host of The Price is Right, for 35 years. Steve Harwell was the frontman of the band Smash Mouth. Anything to say about these two celebrities?

Not to mention that several of Hasbro's shows (including My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic) are all now the oldest programs still airing on Discovery Family.

"Hasbro, Inc. ("Hasbro") has the right to put the entirety of its remaining 40% interest in Discovery Family to Discovery at any time during the one-year period beginning December 31, 2021, or in the event a Discovery performance obligation related to Discovery Family is not met. Embedded in the redeemable noncontrolling interest is also a Discovery call right that is exercisable for one year after December 31, 2021. Upon the exercise of the put or call options, the price to be paid for the redeemable noncontrolling interest is a function of the then-current fair market value of the redeemable noncontrolling interest, to which certain discounts and floor values may apply in specified situations depending upon the party exercising the put or call and the basis for the exercise of the put or call." But then early in 2022, after the license was supposed to expire, but apparently, did not... "Toy maker Hasbro is “evaluating” whether to offload its 40 percent stake in Discovery Family Channel. Hasbro CFO Deborah Thomas, as she discussed the future of the Discovery Family Channel stake during an analyst call, pointed to the impact of accelerating changes in the cable distribution industry, including a decline in linear TV subscribers. As more TV viewers migrate to streaming platforms and other digital alternatives, Thomas pointed to a possible sale or another strategic alternative for the Discovery Family Channel stake." Then another year later... "In connection with the amendment, the Company and Discovery entered into an option agreement related to the Company's remaining 40% ownership in the Network, initially exercisable during the one-year period following December 31, 2021. During 2022, the Company and Discovery agreed to extend the option exercise window to March 31, 2025." Why did Hasbro make this unusual decision, and how does it affect the MLP fans?

Hey guys, I only came back for a short visit just to show you guys something that must be dealt with. According to the podcast "YouTube Duplicate Content vs. Repeatable Content", we know that YouTube doesn't allow two versions of the same video uploaded onto the same channel. Despite that, I found at least TWENTY videos from one SINGLE channel that are continuously violating this rule. By the looks of it, the exact same copies of TEN videos from this one channel were uploaded at least TWICE, all of them deliberately overriding YouTube's policy, which is equal to TEN SEVERE VIOLATIONS on YouTube! I don't know why this channel keeps on doing this, but I am absolutely positive this is beyond illegal. As additional proof, I also have all the links to all 20 videos. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3cBraz1PFIA ("Twilight Sparkle's Crown Gets Stolen", 11/17/20) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P5pQCILbILE ("Twilight Sparkle's Crown Gets Stolen", 1/15/21) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lT-vj1R9Bp8 ("Time to Come Together", 12/28/20) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_nE7Pz5kH5s ("Time to Come Together", 5/6/21) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DInDBjN6eZQ ("Battle", 1/5/21) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CP9uKGHPIJ0 ("Battle", 2/1/22) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rjqiHqS6EYU ("Light of Your Cutie Mark", 1/12/21) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kCPtyC1s8-4 ("Light of Your Cutie Mark", 11/20/21) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q_ARyJhKmxk ("Tricks Up My Sleeve", 2/2/21) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yIRFUhhAntk ("Tricks Up My Sleeve", 6/17/21) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-SSE1lSErrc ("Putting Your Hoof Down", 2/5/21) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OQx1O65ApgA ("Putting Your Hoof Down", 6/19/21) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jw1AlBtiZw4 ("Lost and Found", 2/6/21) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ot3x4_w8rqY ("Lost and Found", 6/15/21) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_9mBSk_fVIw ("I'm NOT Twilight Sparkle", 2/11/21) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gBK0GAl2BtE ("I'm NOT Twilight Sparkle", 7/15/21) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rw1Ix8H11QA ("The Ending of the End", 2/18/21) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E9dm-9_VHZM ("The Ending of the End", 7/29/21) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fazjZsVzafQ ("Under Our Spell", 3/6/21) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QPqDx1-IT_0 ("Under Our Spell", 6/21/21) What can we do to stop this channel from continuing this unlawful activity? I don't care what kind of channel it is, be it a kids' channel or whatever; exact same videos on same channels are equally illegal. By the way, I posted the topic here since I believe the subject of it focuses on YouTube rather than My Little Pony itself.
