  • I think the biggest problem for profits here is the self-dealing... obviously if, say, Warner Bros. stuff goes right to HBO Max it won't be as profitable as if they sell it to Netflix.

    It seems like what they want is a third partner. I do think Nexstar, one of the possible suitors, would be a disaster as they could get pretty political.

    I also wonder about some bigger studios that might just want their own broadcast network to feed into streaming... like Amazon or Sony. Sony is in a weird spot because they don't have a big streaming destination which means a lot of Sony-produced stuff gets cancelled or passed over.

    • I only like that "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" show before season 4. Because Buffy Summers was turned into Spike's damsel in distress. Her being almost raped by Spike in "Seeing Red" is a reason why her character development was being reversed. It just made her this damsel in distress rather than a character that has a sensible development after season 4. Other characters had lower I.Qs after season 3, too. Spike was supposed to be a villainous bully that bullies nerds like Willow. Willow makes "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" lose its nerd-friendly vibe after season 3. Nothing made sense after season 4. It was like an entirely new show after season 4. Because Buffy acts oblivious to how dangerous vampires are since she gets into this relationship with Spike that makes absolutely no sense after her being abused by Angel. Spike ruined "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" to me. He ruined Buffy's character development. The show was turned into anti-intellectual porn between Spike and Buffy with dramatic stupidity that makes no sense whatsoever. It's why I stopped watching it and watched the "Angel" spin-off instead. Because the "Angel" spin-off show was less stupid. Even Sarah Michelle Gellar who portrayed Buffy got tired of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" in season 3. Can't say I blame her on an intellectual level.

      • The C.W. It's a short name for The Complete Woketivism. But in all seriousness, The C.W. has always been a woke television network. Its shows do not have the quality scriptwriting that The W.B. network had. The C.W. is just having shows that cater to easily offended killjoys from younger generations that have no sense of humour nor critical thinking. That's why The C.W. creates these shows that have characters exist for this sake of feminism, homosexuality, racial equality, etc. without quality scriptwriting. Because good stories are being replaced by playing it safe with banal shows repeating the same things over again to walk on easily offended killjoys' eggshells. When I was a teenager, there was less politically correct nonsense on television. So, I was exposed to truly open-minded things rather than this ridiculousness being released on The C.W. So, saving The C.W. would require it to grow a significantly creative spine rather than being cowardice by playing it safe via walking on easily offended people's eggshells. "Smallville" was good because it was first released on The W.B. Not The C.W. Just going to point that out here. From what I see is that these current mainstream media companies for entertainment are not interested in training younger generations to become critical thinkers nor people with a spine. They are just giving consumers shows that are dumber and less innovative than older ones from what I see. Mindless money, mindless sex appeal, mindless fame, and playing it safe by making similar shows are more important in The C.W. than competitive scriptwriting, competitive intellect, competitive acting, and competitive innovation. It's pretty sad.

              Haha! Agreed. The actors all seem to have peaced out. Honestly I'm surprised The Flash is going to Season 9 at this point.

                Just a reminder that political posts are not and will not ever be acceptable on this forum.
