CBS and Dish Network nearly came to blows this past weekend
I came on Friday Night, and I was watching my local CBS news feed telling us to contact Dish and tell them we want CBS. Fortunately, the two sides came to a multi-year deal that will see CBS networks stay on Dish Network for the next several years.
But seriously, what the fuck? This comes only a few weeks after Dish had an -ish with the Turner Networks? It seems as though Dish is just acting like a bunch of assholes for TV networks, though I think this is all a credit to the effect of say Netflix and Hulu. Both are just chipping away at networks ala Ax Men to trees and I think this is the reason. A la Carte is the future, and someone’s gotta figure this shit out sooner rather than later.








There's got to be some kind of twist that's going to happen with this. I don't know if they're setting up an April Fool's joke now or what's going on, but it seems too strange that they'd suddenly reverse on doing a fourth and fifth season after the show was already renewed and they were even just talking about working on those seasons like a couple months ago or something. Or maybe the two episodes yet to release will secretly somehow each be like a "season" in themselves?
