ViacomCBS and WarnerMedia looking to sell The CW

So that means DC Gonna make shows exclusively for HBO MAX?

DC TV been meh to me. First 2-3 seasons of Arrow were cool, and the crossovers were fun as hell, but there’s just too many fukkin eps in a season.

WB DC HBO = same fukking company

 

[Ribbs]

Shouldn’t have cancelled all the Black shows that made UPN popping in the first place

Why do you think I brought up DC shows on HBO? I didn’t say Starz or Fox.

Ehh it’s not as cut and dry as he makes it seem. A start up network will almost always start out as unprofitable in its beginning years. The issue for the CW was that it skewed towards the younger generation, which has a completely different viewing habit compared to other demographics which is where the Netflix and overseas deals came in.

Let's also not let nostalgia overshadow the fact that The WB/UPN was always viewed as the lower tier channel on network cable and dealt with ratings and budget issues it's entire tenure, which is the reason why it folded in the first place.

Well he isnt completely wrong

It's all under the same umbrella which is how Supergirl was able to move from CBS to The CW after it initially flopped.

Ehhhhh they have Freeform which tailors to the same target demographic as The CW, so I could see them totally having use for shows like All American and Riverdale. It’s not going to happen though for obvious reasons.

I don't watch anything on CW anymore. The DC shows are terrible now and need a complete format overhaul. Besides the 100 I haven't watched anything else on that network.

These streaming services have over saturated the market. This isn't going to end well for most of them

 

[Bryan Danielson]

Byron Allen should buy this channel

I wonder what he’d do with it

 

[loyola llothta]

Do it Disney

Don't save them they don't wanna be saved
