In this video, I will be covering when various cartoons, animations, and franchises post1970's enter the public domain, also nothing pertaining to Disney. There may be some inaccuracies in this video where the years may be slightly off, especially since TV pilots are copyrighted before the actual first season airs.

Disclaimers: The current copyright law in the US is highly subject to change, so expect this video to eventually become dated in the future. Also the life + 70 years protection only applies to works published by an individual person such as a book or indie film. This law does not apply to media produced by a collective group of people or a company such as television shows and movies. Man, I can't wait for someone to make a Family Guy horror movie in 2095!
