Toonamiguy321 Posted May 17, 2023 Share Posted May 17, 2023 https://twitter.com/WBDAdSales/status/1658118491776380931 I assume HBO Max changing into Max will dominate the discussion this year, and most creators won’t be showing up because of the strike, but maybe if we are lucky they will have something related to Adult Swim to talk about.

PokeNirvash Posted May 17, 2023 Share Posted May 17, 2023 I remember when upfronts used to be exciting events. Now they're next to meh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jman Posted May 17, 2023 Share Posted May 17, 2023 If it's like the Fox and ABC upfronts, expect a premium being placed on unscripted content (Max is All Elite to the tune of $1 billion over 5 years) with the focus being on the Max rebrand and the unscripted shows that they will probably be using to keep content pouring in while the writers picket. Ironically, Zaslav is one of the only studio heads to make a public statement sympathetic to the writers, claiming they deserve fair pay. They may also mention the DC relaunch, with the hopes for better brand synergy than the Snyder years. If Adult Swim gets mentioned, it will likely be brief. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[classic swim] Posted May 17, 2023 Share Posted May 17, 2023 (edited) We got a blatant bullshit misinformation article that everyone chose to just pedal, so there’s that. Edit: okay um, wow..... they’re actually dropping to 6pm. The one stray, weird source was right. Holy shit, CN...

In my defense I posted that when people were calling that fake news. So unfortunately, we cannot certify this as the most brutal Upfront of all time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If all they plan to do with that is just air more king of the hill then i wouldn't exactly call getting more time for the block something to be happy about 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine instead of having 10 separate bills for services, you have all of them bundled together for one price. We could call it, “cahbul” or something like that. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jman Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 Meanwhile the AEW deal appears to be in serious trouble because CM Punk is a dickhead that can’t fight his way out of a wet paper bag, with even some rumors WWE may be seeing if Warner is interested. So have no fear, Adult Swim will be wrestling free for now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoiler Reportedly Tony Kahn also rehired the guy that was with CM Punk during the fight after All Out and tried to keep it a secret until they announced Collision which...I mean seriously, for what purpose?
