I imagine the disastrous response to Secret Invasion was a factor in making them realize their tv model wasn't working.

I can't believe they aborted McCarthy before 9 months.

Now for SAG-AFTRA....

I think this is being taken out of context.

And just like Zaslav, Iger is in almost no danger of getting the boot. As soon as revenue in the parks goes back up and they get more sizeable box office hits, the calls for his head will die down. Same as it ever was.

The Flash was definitely egg on his face. But I don't think Zsalav is leaving unless it's of his own volition or a story breaks about him doing/saying something heinous.

Oh, for sure. As soon as these strikes are over, it's back to business and people will move on.

Posted in the Strike thread, but still relevant here:

If true, then good.

I'd expect no less from a man who served in the Marine Corps.

This is a huge show of confidence.

Cautiously optimistic but things can change fast.

I'd hope not... but it wouldn't surprise me.

So... nobody actually thinks that this is getting resolved in time to salvage scripted shows this year, right?

Duely noted and revised.

A shame there was no way to not prolong the issue or avoid it entirely...

All of this. These studios will eventually start feeling the consequences of these strikes and will have to come to terms with the fact that they can't wait it out.

These did not age well...
