When someone's right, they're right, after all.Yeah, it was that. He'll be back soon though!
In the meantime, he wanted me to tell you all that he's finally watched Claws and he thinks it's the best show of all time. I personally think that's going a bit too far, but at the same time I didn't want to argue with another fan - there are so few of us here after all 🙃
This is the first time I've heard of it, and I watch a couple of ABC shows. According to Google, it's been on for a month. Oh well.Tuesday night's ratings. I'm not really sure who ABC's "1969" is meant for since no one is watching it
Pick your poison, either A) only people who were born before 1969 are watching it or B) only 1969 people watched it.Tuesday night's ratings. I'm not really sure who ABC's "1969" is meant for since no one is watching it:
The renewal is more surprising to me than the TBS move. Odd in any case...So Snowpiercer got renewed for Season 2... and is moving to TBS? Huh?

No joke I think you've actually sold me on it with your relentless hype.

Miracle Workers also got renewed, even after being announced as an event miniseries with a proper ending.
... Oh, and it has a completely different setting, being based in medieval times, with no reference to God whatsoever.
Yeah, I think they'd said it could be an anthology thing before. It was an amusing show, so I'm interested especially with the same core cast.Miracle Workers also got renewed, even after being announced as an event miniseries with a proper ending.

Seems that Jeremy Kyle was cancelled. I thought his show ended years ago.

Not especially. After two seasons, it feels like wasted potential. Every episode makes it seem like you're on the cusp of something amazing happening, and then not very much happens.
I'd expect some really big numbers to be thrown around for the two.They've met with the principals across all the platforms at all six major companies. They have relationships at many of these places. The Star Wars films are at Disney and LucasFilm, while Benioff wrote for Universal and Donna Langley a Kurt Cobain project, and they are poised to adapt the prison break tale Dirty White Boys for Emma Watts at Fox. They both have movies ties pre-GoT at Warner Bros, where Benioff scripted Troy and Weiss did script work on Poseidon. The longstanding relationship at HBO is also a very strong one.
What it means:When the first output deal between Netflix and CW parents CBS and Warner Bros was announced in 2011, it was hailed as groundbreaking and, with its $1 billion windfall, a lifeline that may have helped save the then money-losing upstart network. The pact, re-uped by both sides in 2016 with some modifications, was up again this spring, and I hear it is not being renewed.
The deal ending doesn't mean new CW series won't end up on Netflix, where CW shows have traditionally been among the strongest performers. The SVOD service just won't get them automatically via an output deal; instead, it will have to bid for each show in a far more competitive environment than the streaming marketplace in 2016.
Past seasons of CW series that premiered through the current 2018-2019 season, like The Flash and Riverdale, will continue to stream on Netflix during the broadcast life of the series and beyond.
I hear WBTV's Batwoman is earmarked for the upcoming WarnerMedia streaming service. Its chief creative officer Kevin Reilly has been open about bringing new WBTV-produced CW shows to the service once the Netflix deal is up, saying in February that "we're very interested in putting that on our platform."
Katy Keene and Nancy Drew are both being shopped, with Netflix said to be among the contenders. Netflix would be a natural destination for WBTV/CBS Studios' Katy Keene which, while different tonally, belongs to the same Archie Comics universe as Riverdale, part of the Netflix output deal, and Chilling Adventures Of Sabrina, a Netflix original series. Both Riverdale and Sabrina are hugely popular on Netflix.
I mean, who else would? They might for shows like "Katy Keene" which are part of the Archieverse, but "Nancy Drew", "All-American", and shows like that are probably never going to find second-life again. "All-American" might be the last time Netflix viewership "saves" a show.
Sure did. People called it too but I was naively hopeful. I don't know how this industry can look at history and not see it's a mistake. People will flock to pirating again if they continue to fragment the landscape. My hope is that in some nebulous future there will be a consolidation again but it's going to take a number of the services falling flat on their face before it happensWelp, guess I'm never gonna watch any Arrowverse reruns in a year or two.
God, the streaming service future sucks ass. Somehow it managed to become worse than cable in an alarmingly short amount of time.
I don't think this is because of Netflix. I think it was a decision by CBS/Warner Brothers. Both of those corporations have their own proprietary streaming services and both don't see the value anymore in having one service taking up all their network's output domestically.Riverdale in particular is pretty big for Netflix. This whole thing is BS. What's wrong with Netflix for real, why do they feel they want to lose everything.
Yeah, if they can make more money sending their shows to CBSAA or Warner Streaming then they'd be dumb not to. Even if Netflix does keep some shows, CBS/WB streaming services will bid up the price for Netflix to keep what they do.I don't think this is because of Netflix.

It's also a show with world-building that works better the less you think about it. From the mermaids and their culture, to their historical interactions with humans in the show, and even several of the human institutions. They're all shallow pastiches that act like they have something to say, then never dive very deep into the implications of it.

I think that's curtains for Dynasty next year.David Benioff and D.B. Weiss are being heavily courted by networks to be the duo's new home.
I'd expect some really big numbers to be thrown around for the two.
The C.W. - Netflix deal is dead.
What it means:
This is becoming ridiculous. For you to watch your streaming needs (wants), you will need 10 different streaming services. All of them in that $10-15 range.
No thanks.
What is this about "cutting the cord"?
Good on Goggins for getting paid, but this just makes me want another season of Casual with Goggins as a widower that hangs out with Alex.
The Netflix/CW deal was dead when they first announced a DC streaming service. They'd have to be idiots not to put the Arrowverse on there exclusively, streaming-wise.
They got banned, but no ban message when I last checked.Did the OP get banned? Or is it some inside joke like my Avenger tag.
So Snowpiercer got renewed for Season 2... and is moving to TBS? Huh?
Ugh. Now I want this as well.Good on Goggins for getting paid, but this just makes me want another season of Casual with Goggins as a widower that hangs out with Alex.
Did you think studios would leave money on the table? This shit was called years ago.This is becoming ridiculous. For you to watch your streaming needs (wants), you will need 10 different streaming services. All of them in that $10-15 range.
No thanks.

Netflix seems to be under the misguided belief that they'll be okay with their original content and their streams of international showsRiverdale in particular is pretty big for Netflix. This whole thing is BS. What's wrong with Netflix for real, why do they feel they want to lose everything.
I was like "What's the big deal" and then I saw the last reply. lolThere was a hiccup with the ban message not being visible to all users, but I contacted a mod about it and it's been corrected. They got a 1 week ban for this post.
