Jeff Zucker's NBC Exit Deal
 

Destroy a network, get $30+ million. Makes sense...

Re: Jeff Zucker's NBC Exit Deal
 

Some of my favorite shows are on NBC

Chuck
FNL
Parenthood
Community
P&R
The Office
30 Rock

Ok, so it isn't a lot, but I would hate to lose those and have an onslaught of economically feasible reality shows, just so they can crack 13m viewers.

Change is evil. Go away change.

Re: Jeff Zucker's NBC Exit Deal
 

/\ Agreed. While its surprising to say this, NBC is probably my most-watched network. They air a lot of shitty shows, to be sure, but they do offer me the most programming.

Will continue to tune in for more seasons;
Chuck
Parenthood
Community
Parks & Recreation
The Office
30 Rock
Saturday Night Live
The Celebrity Apprentice

Cancelled, but not missed;
Heroes

#1 Network CBS? I don't watch anything on that network :shrug:

Ugh.

Re: Jeff Zucker's NBC Exit Deal
 

The absolute only thing I watch on CBS is The Big Bang Theory (one of my favorite shows), but I guess all of the Baby Boomers keep CBS in the top spot.

Re: Jeff Zucker's NBC Exit Deal
 

I don't watch much TV, but the shows I do watch or TV-on-DVD sets that I do buy are almost always NBC, USA, or HBO, and have been for about 20 years now.

Re: Jeff Zucker's NBC Exit Deal
 

You should check out the shows FX and AMC have been putting out the last several years. Good stuff.

Re: Jeff Zucker's NBC Exit Deal
 

Same here. And now that they axed New Adventures of Old Christine, I'm down to HIMYM and Medium (which was axed by NBC and moved to CBS).

I do watch a lot of NBC:
Chuck
Parenthood
Community
Parks & Recreation
The Office
30 Rock
Friday Night Lights

If they could just stick with those, I'd be happy.

Re: Jeff Zucker's NBC Exit Deal
 

What's your hate of Bonnie Hammer?

Re: Jeff Zucker's NBC Exit Deal
 

By the way, isn't this cockzucker the same guy who game millions to Jay Leno for his shitty show and helped Conan out of NBC? If so, good riddance.

Re: Jeff Zucker's NBC Exit Deal
 

Meh. I don't really watch network television shows that much anymore to be honest. Cable/premium cable is where the best shows are now days. Only shows I watch on NBC are Parenthood and I watch Chuck, but so far I've been watching that more on Blu-ray.

Re: Jeff Zucker's NBC Exit Deal
 

Is Sunny on one of them? I do love those DVDs. And I just bought Breaking Bad S1 after all the positive talk here on it.

Re: Jeff Zucker's NBC Exit Deal
 

She destroyed the SciFi network, and I believe particularly was responsible for the death of Farscape.

Re: Jeff Zucker's NBC Exit Deal
 

Sunny is on FX though Comedy Central now also airs reruns.

Ding! on both counts.

Re: Jeff Zucker's NBC Exit Deal
 

Didn't know that. Was only familiar with her on the work she has done with USA Network.

Re: Jeff Zucker's NBC Exit Deal
 

NBC is full of brilliant people.

Re: Jeff Zucker's NBC Exit Deal
 

If you like Sunny, I recommend another FX comedy, The League. It's available on Hulu. As for FX dramas, The Shield and Sons of Anarchy are must-sees. I loved the first few seasons of Nip/Tuck and Rescue Me, but got kind of sick of them.

The other AMC drama is Mad Men. It's a little soap opera-ish, so it may not be your cup of tea, but it's very well-crafted and has a great cast.

Re: Jeff Zucker's NBC Exit Deal
 

Now that L&O has been cancelled, the only thing left I watch on NBC is The Office and 30R. But at least it's not FOX, where I watch zilch.

Re: Jeff Zucker's NBC Exit Deal
 

You know the really sad part? He'll probably be hired by someone else in no time... -ohbfrank-

Re: Jeff Zucker's NBC Exit Deal
 

hopefully a station i hate, so he can run that into the ground.

Re: Jeff Zucker's NBC Exit Deal
 

Tooj long enough. Failing upwards and getting a shit load to leave. Nice work.

Re: Jeff Zucker's NBC Exit Deal
 

I read that she cancelled, The Invisible Man, MST3K, Special Unit 2, The Dresden Files, Journeyman, The DRESDEN Files, The 4400, Stargate SG1 and Painkiller Jane.

I missed the Invisible Man on SciFi (SyFy).

Re: Jeff Zucker's NBC Exit Deal
 

Scifi fans may hate Bonnie Hammer, but NBC execs lover her for what she did with the USA network: Hits like Burn Notice, In Plain Sight, Psyche, Royal Pains, and White Collar. Plus profitable ventures like picking up L&O:CI and, of course, wrestling.
