Who currently owns Rocky and Bullwinkle?

[iluvdoves1228]

I was just wondering, since WildBrain seems to have lost the rights to Rocky and Bullwinkle, as well as the rest of Jay Ward’s cartoons. I know that the characters are still owned by Jay Ward Productions, but does WildBrain really still own them? Or are they going to another company? If so, then I hope that
DreamWorks is able to get them back, and maybe try to return them to MeTV Toons, along with maybe adding the rest of the Classic Media library to the channel, such as He-Man, She-Ra, The Archies, and Felix the Cat

WildBrain only had distribution rights. I heard that the Jay Ward family is still looking to find a new distributor, either start a new deal with WildBrain or go with something else.

I must admit I had no idea what that was talking about, I guess you mean these guys? All I would say is that it doesn't look like they have anything remotely similar.

They own classic Voltron and Doreamon. Those are similar.

CAKE itself exclusively distributes mostly European content because most of their targets are European, though there was success with Angry Birds so anything can happen.

The Ward family was probably upset that WildBrain did nothing with their properities in the three years they had the license, besides brokering the Bullwinkle deal with MeTV Toons.

As long the Ward family owns Bullwinkle outright, they're going to have a hard time finding another company that will give them as much attention as a property that company fully owns.

why not just give it back to NBCUniversal at this point? at least they did SOMETHING with the Ward characters.

plus, they have a deal with MeTV Toons too. hand-in-hand (whatever that means).
