  • Lol, all the assets related to a production are considered. You think Disney would have bought star wars just for the films?.the cost of upkeep is an issue when you bring it up, but the gains aren’t? Talk about moving goalposts!

    They are ending the show. Of they were unsure, they could have renewed year by year. They have not announced a replacement format, so you’re making stuff up now.

    The facts we know if is that Colbert has been critical of the administration and the merger. It’s the most popular show. it’s cheap to make and would be profitable.

    It’s kowtowing to Trump for the sake of a financial arrangement. I hope it fails.



  • Lol, owning that much real estate would have made huge gains over the time period. Not a loss at all. You’re clutching at straws.

    It’s not conspicuous that the biggest show would fall. It’s lies about the reasons for the axe. The show is critical of trump and they want a merger approved. It’s fascism.

    I have no doubt that the large late night show is destined to end and be in the annals of history. Same for cable tv. Same for news on tv. However, being terminal in viewership does not suffenly make it unprofitable before a merger, particyof it’s the biggest show, worth the most viewers and minimal costs.


  • Yep for hundreds of hours of tv, that is topical with consistent, if dropping viewership, that’s cheap. Very cheap.

    Comedy pilots or dramas can be millions to make for one episode that is never even seen.

    They own the theatre that the filming is in, so it doesn’t cost them anything, apart from opportunity cost.

    How much do you think that works out for one show, costwise and what’s expansive to make and what’s cheap to make? How much as revenue do you think is made for a show with 2.4m viewers.














  • The reason we have a justice system is to prevent mob justice, and revenge. Prisons in many countries are supposed to rehabilitate not punish. The USA justice system seems more about dealing punishment, than preventing crime or keeping society safe. The death penalty is one aspect of that. If it was really about protecting people, those that cut the jobs of the people that could have prevented 100+ deaths in Texas would be in jail. It’s about keeping the poor in place. The Epstein files will be interesting if released, as they will all be wealthy people, hurting children and the vulnerable. There won’t be any motive apart from desires and power. Should they not be punished?
