I wonder who Zaslav wants to buy them.

I wonder who Zaslav wants to buy them.

Zaslav wants anyone but Paramount. He has tried to rope in Comcast, Netflix, Amazon, and Apple. Paramount has no interest in keeping him around, and he likes money.

He is the guy who gave us Toddlers and Tiaras, Naked and Afraid, MILF Manor, and 90 Day Fiance.

Oh yeah, he has made horrible choices from day 1. Will be happy to see him go, but of course, rather not at the cost of more media consolidation.

If Nolan won't come to WB, then WB must go to Nolan.

Well, all scenarios pretty much suck, but at least this is better than Paramount and, God forbid, Netflix.

Higher prices, simpler streaming expected if HBO Max folds into Paramount+

The end of HBO Max is “certainly plausible.”…

What I'm Hearing: More Ellison Anxiety, Saudi Pitches & A Mel Gibson Revival

The one thing everybody knows is that Larry Ellison could end this contest instantly if he decided to make an offer the WBD board couldn’t refuse. (There could be legal challenges from other bidders or even state attorneys general, but obviously the Trump administration won’t object.) I’m told that the Ellisons, père et fils, and RedBird’s Gerry Cardinale are sweeping through the Middle East this week. Maybe Larry wants to share the opportunity? (Disclosure: Through Puck’s recent acquisition of Air Mail, RedBird is a minority investor in Puck.)
