Didn't they claim last week they were done cancelling stuff? -- nm - Ender Jan 13, 20:40

I don’t understand this…why? If things are done…there’s a sink cost. Get something. -- nm - Will Hunting Jan 13, 17:59 16
- If that were the only cost then sure. -- nm - mafic Jan 13, 19:21 2
  - If you can’t get more for ads than your spend for a completed 4th season…there never should have been a 4th season. -- nm - Will Hunting Jan 13, 19:41 1
    - Sure, but if you can make more airing something else in its place you should do that. - mafic Jan 13, 21:17
- because agents dropped the ball on putting more costly penalty clauses in their clients' deals to cover this eventuality - hollywood big shot Jan 13, 18:35 2
  - no shit. the next round of negotiations gonna be a shitshow -- nm - Beaker Jan 13, 18:39 1
    - i don't know if they're trying to actually send a message to the guilds (nobody hears that they're stockpiling for a potential strike either) - hollywood big shot Jan 13, 18:41
- Tax write-down, it's content not art. -- nm - Under the Influence Jan 13, 18:10 8
  - Kid, your face is content, not art! -- nm - Qale Jan 13, 18:29
  - Yes they get a write off equal to 21% of the actual cash they put out. - spamlet Jan 13, 18:12 6
    - And they don’t pay residuals. -- nm - MDH Jan 13, 18:24
    - right? -- nm - Beaker Jan 13, 18:19 4
      - if you can't make 21% of your production cost from ads from original airing and then selling the rights just fucking give up -- nm - Beaker Jan 13, 18:20 3
        
        TNT is Warners. there aren't enough ads in the world to make Discovery whole for the $3b they went in hock to buy it -- nm - hollywood big shot Jan 13, 18:42 2
        
        I'm buying Apple for 84 trillion dollars -- oh oh, so Apple suddenly doesn't make enough money to cover that now? -- nm - Reagen Jan 13, 18:49 1
        
        this seems to be the difference between Disney buying FOX and Warners buying HBO. Disney wanted the content for D+, Warner wants the tax writeoff -- nm - Beaker Jan 13, 18:53
- I wonder what the post production costs on these are. - spamlet Jan 13, 18:02
