Established as part of a major reorganisation of Warner Bros.'s parent company WarnerMedia on March 4, 2019, the division is responsible for the company's family, kids, animation, and young adult properties, as well as the preservation of Warner Bros.'s classic film library, particularly titles administered by Turner Entertainment, and the catalog of animation studio Hanna-Barbera Productions.
The division's properties include the cable television channels Cartoon Network (including the Adult Swim programming block), Boomerang and Turner Classic Movies, the feature animation division Warner Animation Group, and the animation studios Warner Bros. Animation, Cartoon Network Studios and Williams Street.
History[edit]
On March 4, 2019, AT&T announced a major reorganization of WarnerMedia to effectively dissolve the Turner Broadcasting System division, which involved Cartoon Network, Adult Swim, Turner Classic Movies, and digital media company Otter Media being transferred to Warner Bros. Entertainment. Aside from TCM and Otter - which was transferred over to WarnerMedia Entertainment on May 31, 2019 to oversee development on an upcoming over-the-top streaming service from WarnerMedia - the newly transferred properties under a newly formed Global Kids & Young Adults division.[1][2][3][4]
On April 7, 2020, Tom Ascheim was named President of the division, now renamed Warner Bros. Global Kids, Young Adults and Classics, overseeing Cartoon Network, Boomerang and Adult Swim, and adding Turner Classic Movies to his oversight.[5]
