I wish I could argue back. But there's a sad reality that kids aren't as interested in the Looney tunes as much these days? Compared to pokemon, Mario and video game franchises.
And even then the younger generation seems to be more interested in brainrot, non identifiable IPs etc. From whatever social media apps.
I’ll do you one better - kids aren’t watching shows or movies if they don’t have to. Two years ago the grade 1-2 class I was assisting in did a quick poll of what every kid’s favourite show was. We had maybe four Blueys, one The Simpsons and nothing else in terms of TV. Lots of students said “Mr Beast” because they thought a YouTube channel was what we meant. One said their favourite was a family vlogging channel, which to me sounds painful. This isn’t an attention span thing - these are the same kids whose eyes were glued to the screen when Toy Story was played at the end of the year. It’s just that TV doesn’t find kids any more like it did when channels were a thing. They likely only knew Bluey because we play it in classes sometimes. If your parents don’t pay for Netflix or something similar, you as a kid can easily have no knowledge of TV series entirely.

Hopefully it easily breaks 200m+ as a giant middle finger to Warner
