The End Is Near?? 8:46 pm EST
The end may be near for WB's Entertaindom.com web site
which they launched just six (6) months ago in November 1999. Who's to blame? Try AOL!
Animation World Network (AWN) is reporting that the top three (3) guys in charge of
the WB site have walked of the job and to quote AWN: "The future of Entertaindom seemed more bleak on Tuesday, April 4, 2000, when
AOL launched AOL Plus (Time-Warner and AOL recently merged), which has multimedia content and feature deals with the House of Blues, Launch.com, CNN, CNET Networks and
CBSMarketWatch.com." You can read more about it HERE
on the AWN site.

Besides the year 2000 being the new Millenium (unless you say it really starts in 2001), this is also the Seventy Year Anniversary of Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies! Looney Tunes is the longest and continuous animated series in entertainment history. Jon Cooke's Warner Bros. Cartoon Info. Page. is celebrating this event by paying tribute every month with a bios on an important character in the history of WB animation in the order in which they made their film debut. This month is Bosko, who debuted in 1929. |
