Degrassi is no longer moving forward at HBO Max. The news comes from a Wall Street Journal story about the future of the platform’s parent company, Warner Bros. Discovery. As things continue to shift under the watchful eye of CEO David Zaslav, content is being cut with more and more aggressiveness by the week. In the WSJ piece, youth programming like Degrassi and Charlotte’s Web are both falling by the wayside. Other tidbits from the reporting indicate TBS fans might have some original content to look forward to after all. It’s long been reported that both the network and TNT would be shuttering their live-action originals departments as Zaslav and company try to slash costs. But, some previous agreements cannot just be forgotten and unfulfilled. It will be interesting to see if this will encourage some public faith in their operations as social media has been a non-stop source of discussion about WBD and their future.
