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.

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.

Audacy is emerging from Chapter 11 bankruptcy with help from its new (and biggest) investor.

Yes, there will. The CW renewed 100 Days to Indy for season two, which drops this spring. EDIT: specifically, April 26.

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.

WBTV & Telepictures' entertainment news stalwart Extra was renewed for season 31 on the Fox stations

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.

The Jennifer Hudson Show will return for Season 3.
