So unoriginal.
So now MSNBC, Fox News and CNN, all have shows ending in "tonight".

Someone said on Radio Discussions that Judge Jerry is staying around in reruns like Jerry Springer and Judge Judy.
Jerry Springer and Maury already have or will go into reruns now that they're both ending. Makes sense for Judge Jerry.

With Chris and now Megyn now possibly joining NewsNation it's going to see if their ratings will increase. If these moves don't work I don't know what will.

As I posted earlier, my Guess is Sherri wil be on WUPW, Jennifer Hudson on WNWO, and We the People on either WUPW or WTVGHD2.
I'm betting that WUPW will have Karamo, probably in the same slot Maury currently airs in.

https://www.news5cleveland.com/news/local-news/cleveland-meteorologist-attacked-in-own-home-by-adult-son ok this is just nuts out of the Cleveland market.
Jon actually parted time on WTVG while they were searching for a replacement meteorologist. He seemed like a real good guy. I can't imagine why his own son would do this. Interesting that his own wife was charged too. Hope he makes a full recovery.

It looks like some of his stuff was retained by folks who knew it was coming; Ben from The Oddity Archive is uploading non-game show stuff from the collection on his Archive Annex channel for instance.
It's certainly a part of it though; you'll never notice any of NBCU/Multimedia's 90s shows on there because Nosey has been pretty consistent about getting those talk shows on any AVOD channel possible. It's just a part of those two finally realizing there's free money and viewers to be had putting it on Pluto, and TPIR was a great test of that thinking. I know I've stopped on the Pluto court show channel a few times to catch a few old Judge Judy episodes.
I 've watched the Pluto Courtroom channel a few times. I enjoyed seeing Judge Mills Lane, Swift Justice with Nancy Grace and the first season of Hot Bench on there. I'm not sure if Judge Joe Brown is on there.

This would be the reason SPT and CBSMV cleared out a whole lotta WoF, J! And Judge Judy content:
Hopefully it’s not the same limited episode pools that GSN got stuck with.
I don't know if this is the main reason why these takedowns occurred. Sony and CBS have always been strict with J!, WOF and JJ long before these channels and content were made available. David Downs's and Sam Mitchell's channels were terminated about Memorial Day.
Fremantle does a better approach by blocking instead of striking, meaning no harm to the users. They've done this every time new episodes are set to debut on TPIR the Barker Era channel.

There's just too many cable networks that could easily be a streaming service option, so I'm glad NBC is cutting weight on this (it seems like they only ever carried it because of pressure from the IOC president, not any viewer demand). And it pretty much seems like Oxygen going OTA in O&O markets means that network is next.
But it shouldn't be on NBC and Disney alone to cut useless networks (there Disney XD and Junior are a Spectrum or Comcast RTC contract away from leaving the air going by the international wind-downs for D+). There are several networks literally only existent to carry two prime series with no reruns, and then 90s sitcoms for the other 166 hours, and the output of VH1 and MTV2 can easily be merged onto MTV without any viewer revolts. Same with a lot of Discovery's networks and TruTV, and FYI and Vice could go for A&E, while WeTV at this point could be an AMC+ hub.
I hope Oxygen stays on OTA if it were to disappear on cable/satellite.
Disney Junior and XD would make sense with Disney+ being popular as is.
VH1 might get some revolt due to the station's heritage. I don't think MTV2 has been ever that popular. MTV Classic could easily move to Pluto TV in the music category.
I'm thinking Destination America, American Heroes Channel and Discovery Family might be on the chopping block. TruTV just has Impractical Jokers and that's about it, maybe move it to TBS.
FYI and Vice are pretty much reruns of A&E shows, same with Crime + Investigation. WeTV could easily be an AMC+ hub if the service is successful.
NBCU has been cutting channels even before cord cutting became big, starting with the original G4, then Cloo, then Esquire Network, then NBCSN and now this. I'm wondering about CNBC World.

NBCUniversal Will Unplug The Olympic Channel After Five-Year Linear TV Run
I've said here in the past that I thought the Olympic Channel would cease before NBCSN ever did. It doesn't surprise me as it doesn't have too many viewers outside of the actual Olympics.
Who knows if the Golf Channel will stick around or will their programming might eventually get moved over to Peacock as well?

Alex Wagner will be Maddow's successor in the 9pm slot.
Pretty decent replacement. I know she was popular the first time she was on there.

Sony as a whole seems to be one of the most strict about copyright. I had a commercial compilation with a 1997 Burger King commercial that used Foreigner’s “Urgent” that got blocked by Sony Music (no strikes).I think it’s become common knowledge that Jeopardy eps are a no-no on YouTube.
As another poster said in the past, you could use a Sony-owned show if you just changed the title. Not anymore it seems. I guess the British company Sony contracts with found a way to set off the algorithms.
SME has always been strict about copyright.

It appears several game show channels have been terminated in recent weeks on YouTube. Among them is the Fun & Games Channel run by the late David Downs, who died in late 2019. It appears that a British "Anti-piracy" company contracted with Sony to remove Jeopardy! episodes. David's channels were very popular with game show fans until his passing, so it's a shame.

New OCM Michael Estime made his debut on America's Weather Now tonight, filling in for Nick Kosir.
https://www.foxweather.com/person/e/michael-estime
I'm not sure what the "FAST" weather service is that's mentioned in his bio. Can't find anything online about it either. Perhaps it's some new product that's about to launch?
Edit: Oh, apparently "FAST" just stands for "Free, ad-supported streaming television" - so in other words, just the main live streaming network.
FAST is basically using linear-style channels over the internet for free. Pluto TV, Tubi and Xumo are a few examples.

We all know Fox News is conservative channel. Is Fox Weather more conservative or neutral?
It's probably the most neutral of any Fox News Media venture.

Looks like it could be heading to WAXN. Will probably be replacing The Doctors or Judge Jerry.
I'm thinking maybe WUPW. They also aired Sternberg's Protection Court and also aired the former Crime Watch Daily.

Another Axios scoop.
I like Jim Acosta but I think it's time for CNN to go back to the more straight news approach it had pre-Zucker. If Acosta does get fired, MSNBC might pick him up for a show.

Forgot about HLN. I wonder about American Heroes Channel and TruTV as well.

Interesting rumor. If Adult Swim goes to streaming only, what happens to CN during nights and overnights? Do what the Disney Channel has done for decades and use the CN Block and programming during these dayparts?
Adult Swim is very popular and some of the other linear channels in the WB Discovery family like Discovery Family and Boomerang are just "there". Plus, Kids channels are declining every year and are not likely going to gain viewers ever again.

I only agree with breaking news if it's truly recent, not something from hours or a day ago.
Not trying to go too off-topic but on NBC Nightly News, every story until the first commercial break is breaking news. It's a decent newscast overall, but come on!

How many homes does NewsMax reach versus NewsNation? If NewsMax can pull in five times the numbers that NewsNation is pulling in for their shows....
The question is, how much better would NewsNation be if they gave up and went back to doing Matlock reruns? (as good old Superstation WGN)
A channel filled with reruns may not work as well in today's age with on-demand streaming. The only ones that do well are the ones that are niche or are available OTA.

So Tanchek gets on the air to warn everybody that he's going to create a First Alert because bad weather will be here in two days. Two days later the First Alert fizzles into
a small storm with showers. They have made the weather on WOIO unwatchable especially when they almost shout it at you.
Has WOIO always been like this or has this just happened in the past few years?

Sounds about right to me.

Maybe BNC could be used a block for news programming on theGrio TV?
Actually, according to theGrio's website, it looks like a merger between the two networks and it appears to have taken effect on Monday. If theGrio hasn't had a FAST presence before, it now does. Their website says that the commentary will still continue, so it looks like this is a name change.
