[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls and The Inside), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.
UPN and WB are combining into one broadcast network. Presumably this means a smaller market for pilots. I have no idea what the buying style of UPNWB is.
What? How? What?
So... half as many shows (in total)?
It looks like the Fox-owned TV stations (such as WWOR in NY) are getting cut out of the deal.
That probably means less of a market for Fox-produced shows, and more for WB and Viacom.
I wonder what will happen in my area, where UPN is a broadcast station, but the WB is only available on cable.
half as many shows (in total)?
That's my assumption. I'm sure Veronica Mars is safe because it's a critical and I think commercial success. It's the only WB/UPN show I care about at the moment -- are you Smallville peeps worried?
Hmmm, it's up against Everybody Hates Chris right now -- so I guess we should be worried -- but I think it's also in it's last season.
Does this take effect immediately?
I think in the fall.
