Max has just purged several Hanna-Barbera shows as part of their plan to phase out streaming content aimed at kids and families (this is why they didn't renew their license to stream "Sesame Street"), and they also removed the classic "Tom and Jerry" shorts...

A little off-topic, but it looks like another H-B voice actor has been silenced forever.

Patty Maloney, who voiced Tanis the Mummy Girl in Scooby-Doo and the Ghoul School, and notably Darla in The Little Rascals cartoon series, passed away on March 31. She also had one-time roles in two segments on Smurfs - including "Blue Eyes Returns" and "Sassette's Bewitching Friendship".

Sassette was voiced by Julie Dees, who previously did the voice of Alfalfa on the Rascals cartoon - who had a crush on Darla. "Sassette's Bewitching Friendship", produced in 1987, was the first time Dees and Maloney worked together on a H-B cartoon since The Little Rascals cartoon ended in 1984 - if only for 11 minutes.

Maloney was 89 years old. She suffered a series of strokes prior to her death.
