This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Am I the only one that while looking at those pictures it screams make it a museum and clearly you'll make a profit? Even if it were in red numbers at the end?

No license fees, most content could be reruns of shows that they did while explaining how it was made in those rooms, no rent money and on top of that the generation that grew up with that content are the ones that have jobs right now and clearly they would pay for the tour that won't need many employees since it's probably a medium size building?

I'd go on a road trip and pay just to see that building if it became a museum. I imagine all the cool things like the wall or any remaining items have either been vandalized, renovated, or just flat out removed, sadly.

I don’t think this is “mildly” interesting, it’s pretty darn interesting!

I wasn't gonna cry until I saw the drawings on the walls - that's a piece of animation history right there, and something you just can't recreate in a new space. If you framed some of that sheet rock and saved it for a generation or two, the cash from the collectors auction you'd get for it would probably pay enough to bring back Space Ghost.
