March 3, 20187 yr comment_5834222 Re: switching from three hours to two, there are other entanglements that would need to be cleared up when it comes to their international TV deals in making that change. That kind of stuff makes it much more likely to me that they just maintain the status quo simply because it’s easier. We don't get the three hours in France. It's already a digest version. And by digest, it doesn't mean most of it isn't vomit inducing.
March 3, 20187 yr comment_5834223 It's been stated that moving to Fox would mean two hours, local affiliates are not going to stand for having their local news (that they get the money for) get pre empted for rasslin'. Right, and some of their interational deals are paying them for three hours and dont expire at the same time as the NBCU deal.

Right, and none of them are going to be paying anything near what Fox would be. Easier to tell a few international partners than they are going to get a little less content than pissing off the local affiliates of your largest revenue source.

I’m not sure that that’s how contracts work.
March 3, 20187 yr comment_5834244 It's hard to say what's in that contract. I don't know certainly. They could maybe get away with giving them 205 live as the third hour or something else that could be region specific. Are we sure they don't already get the 2 hour Hulu Raw?
