Wow, that's surprising a little that it's a young woman. She worked for them before on their home video department, so hopefully that means she'll know exactly what's up with their current lineup. Not sure if this means more CN shows with female leads, but the possibility of it might be increased. I'm interested in seeing what will be different when she settles in.

Where's the Star brothers?

Hopefully gone and never, ever coming back.

O.o

On Toon Zone. Weird that they've been around there more than here the last two weeks, but whatever.

Jave is gone for the most part, so they probably no longer feel they have to fear getting banned....again.

Just two weeks? I guess we simply just don't frequent the same threads.

Christina Miller, eh? Considering that she was the gal who helped push Ben 10 into the marketing juggernaut that it has managed to remain in the past nine years, I'll have to assume that her being in charge means finding more creative ways to leverage CN properties both old and new...which was basically what Snyder was doing for the past two years.

Peanutbutter · July 28, 2014, 05:17:45 PM

If she's the reason Ben 10 became a juggernaut, then I really hope that means she'll do whatever it takes to make sure any future action or comedy shows get full toy deals. And with good toy companies, since Bandai utterly sucks.

Well it's 2015, which means sooner or later we'll find out what Christina Miller's plans are for Cartoon Network. Likely around the Upfront conference later this year it should be more clear what she has in mind.

Miller's slam at Stu's reign.

Daikun · September 15, 2017, 10:52:14 PM

WGN Radio had an interview with Snyder. You can listen to it here.

Christina Miller is leaving CN by the end of the year.

Peanutbutter · August 30, 2020, 05:16:19 PM

Been a while since there's been major CN news, but I'd think this would count. Sam Register has taken over as head of Cartoon Network Studios. Rob Sorcher is switching over to production. I have no idea if this good news or bad news. Register has looked over both shows that were successes for the network and ones that burned out.

Kind of odd that it's been a year since Christina Miller left, and yet Cartoon Network is still running under the same aesthetic. I guess part of that may be because of Covid, but I don't think I even know who the new CEO is?

Avaitor · January 05, 2021, 04:31:07 PM

Normally it takes a year or so for a regime change to be felt on a channel, but it does seem like CN has been on autopilot for a while, hasn't it? The fact that they keep reairing Gumball and won't even greenlight the movie to finish it just astonishes me. It's like the show is still in limbo.
