If anything is to blame it would be the Skydance merger. I will never pretend to understand “hollywood math” but apparently axeing all of your projects just before being purchased somehow makes you a more attractive purchase?
Edit: also they had to pay off their bribe to daddy orange face

This is in no way a defense of the new owners (they’re bad), but the bribe was made by the old owners (they were also bad).
Right, but that move was made in support of getting Donnie’s FCC to approve the merger so I’m counting it.
I’m more suspicious that the old owners canceled all their animation so as to no be in conflict with Skydance’s animation studio which is top quality.
