Maxwell Atoms is writing a Billy & Mandy movie.

Furthermore, the plans for live-action on CN were already there before Snyder started in July 2007. In this Toonzone thread from February 2007, forum members speculated that now that Jim Samples was gone, maybe CN would finally stop airing live-action (lol).

Yeah, and not only that, Out of Jimmy's Head was greenlight way before Snyder came on board. Not to mention that, on the same month, Fridays, Miguzi, and Cartoon Theater got canceled in favor of Fried Dynamite and Master Control.

Well, resigned and fired are very similar verbs in Hollywood... At Nickelodeon, Cyma Zarghami, Dan Schneider and Butch Hartman also recently "resigned". But Cyma Zarghami's new job clearly pays less. They were clearly just fired.

Snyder started in 2007, but Michael Ouweleen was already hired in 2006 for firing people. So it was people higher up changing the network, not Snyder.

Actually Stuart Snyder was named on May 2nd 2007 not July 2007https://www.nexttv.com/news/snyder-head-new-turner-unit-299347

Since WB's new overlords at Discovery are selling off its shows to non-WB networks, Maxwell believes that a new Billy & Mandy project could be possible.

It seems to me that getting new Billy & Mandy material made just isn't a priority for WB-D, and hasn't been for many years now.

I know for a fact that in the '90s and '00s, Looney Tunes, Tiny Toons, Animaniacs and Pinky and the Brain were on Nickelodeon.

What does that have to do with this topic?

I think she means how WB was able to sell those shows to Nickelodeon so they can air them. Just like how Maxwell Atoms is now talking about the possibility of WBD selling his Billy and Mandy project to a non WB platform

If there is anyone that could pull a comeback better than anyone it would be Maxwell Atoms, hopefully one of those streaming sites will give him a chance

But those were reruns---that wasn't WB producing something new for Nick to air.

Honestly though, if Cartoon Network isn't interested in brining back Billy & Mandy, why would any other channel be?

Well, I've certainly learned, not all of them good. I wish Mr. Atoms the best of luck in his future endeavors, regardless of whatever he does.
