  2. I think the sports block is the best plan for TruTV since the peak of its format as a comedy-based reality show network. I think it'll be hugely successful and I'd bet a rebrand will be imminent sometime after.
  3. Considering the underlined portion and the fact that Carsey-Werner isn't credited as a series production company (it's instead produced under Werner's and star Sara Gilbert's own production companies, which later merged [at least in-name] after season 1), that's most likely why Lionsgate was contacted to distribute the series.
  4. Audacy is emerging from Chapter 11 bankruptcy with help from its new (and biggest) investor.
  5. The returns of All American and Walker plus new series will bow in April. Meanwhile, AA: Homecoming may return this summer, and the final season of Superman & Lois will launch this fall. https://deadline.com/2024/02/all-american-homecoming-season-3-superman-lois-season-4-release-date-1235826869/
  6. The Conners' syndication launch confirmed for this fall.
  7. Geraldo is joining NewsNation as Correspondent at Large. He starts tonight with a spot on Cuomo, and will appear on its daytime and primetime shows. https://deadline.com/2024/02/geraldo-rivera-newsnation-1235825375/
  8. A standalone ESPN DTC streaming service is officially launching next fall (or as soon as next August). It'll air feeds of ESPN networks and programming, and interactive features like stats and score. Yes, is different from ESPN+. https://deadline.com/2024/02/disney-espn-streaming-launch-date-bob-iger-1235818372/

  10. Yes, there will. The CW renewed 100 Days to Indy for season two, which drops this spring. EDIT: specifically, April 26.
  11. Wow, it's gorgeous. The circular video screens behind the anchor desk look and feel like something I've never seen before (even though I have), and the wraparound video graphics look superb, smooth and seamless. For a Sinclair set, I expected mediocre or worse, but this is O&O-level or even near near network-level. It's that good IMO.
  12. WBTV & Telepictures' entertainment news stalwart Extra was renewed for season 31 on the Fox stations
  13. The Hill Sunday, a new public affairs program similar to the shows on its cable competitors and on the Big 4 Networks, will be hosted by its political editor Chris Stirewalt and launch on March 31 at 10am. https://deadline.com/2024/01/newsnation-sunday-public-affairs-chris-stirewalt-1235796126/
  14. I love this more than I should. I was interested when I saw glimpses of the new look during promos for Wild Cards and looked forward to what's to come. After reading up on it and watching the sizzle reel, I was highly impressed. - The refreshed logo looks great, and the explanation for dropping "The" from the logo (but not the name) make way more sense than anyone can give them credit for. - The imaging and its elements are incredible, fit the programs well, and look & feel like something you'd see on The CW and nowhere else. - The color palette -- including "Hot Sauce" for the logo -- is unorthodox yet refreshing, and works wonders for CW (and - again - nowhere else). The era of green and white et al. is now gone, but this group of hues is a worthy successor. If anyone thought this network is not worth watching anymore because of the expensive superhero and teen shows being largely replaced by much-cheaper yet respectable acquisitions from other countries, the new presentation surely says otherwise.
  15. The Jennifer Hudson Show will return for Season 3.
  16. Wow. NWA should be lucky. That... narcotic spot [which was planned by owner Billy Corgan despite some resistance] at their October PPV seemingly imploded their partnership completely, and honestly (as it was stupid and unnecessary -- both when it happened and right after) they (especially Corgan) kinda deserved the resulting backlash. I hope the partnership goes well and lasts quite a while, and Corgan and the NWA staff don't push their luck.
  17. https://deadline.com/2024/01/radio-giant-audacy-files-chapter-11-bankruptcy-1235697311/
  18. I know. The 9th is this Tuesday. The 16th is next Tuesday. That's what I meant.
  19. After Midnight has a premiere date -- January 16 (yep, next Tuesday).
  20. The USFL and XFL are merging into a brand new spring football league -- the United Football League. The first season under the newly formed entity is on March 30. https://deadline.com/2023/12/united-football-league-plans-xfl-usfl-merger-1235684077/
  21. 1) Since it's staying around, it's gonna take a while to forget that this network name was last associated with home design, cooking and DIY shows. 2) That logo looks like one of a 90s haircare brand. Considering it's new strategy, while not bad, it's a bit too on-the-nose IMO. haha
  22. TBN confirmed as a distribution partner of Merit Street Media. https://deadline.com/2023/12/phil-mcgraw-trinity-broadcasting-merit-street-media-1235654589/
  23. Medhi Hasan's weekend show will end, some other weekend shows will shift to other timeslots, and a new three-hour weekend show - known as The Weekend (phew) -- will debut. All these moves take place on January 13. https://tvline.com/news/mehdi-hasan-show-cancelled-ending-msnbc-weekend-schedule-1235091027/
  24. King Charles, a primetime limited series, will premiere on November 29 and will air on Wednesdays at 10pm (the second episode will air an hour earlier). https://deadline.com/2023/11/charles-barkley-gayle-king-cnn-king-charles-1235629965/
