Michigan Radio & TV Buzzboard

Of course, Schitt's Creek was available during its run to those of us on the border on CBC (CBET 9).

Didn't Schitt's make Milwaukee famous?

We know Netflix and Hulu exist, yes?

You know this is the "Michigan Radio and TV Buzzboard", yes?

Why would we care about streaming internet here?

Because who wouldn't want to watch commercials or watch when the network decides?

Some of us like watching FREE TV instead of paying for it.

You don't have cable? Clearly, you have internet service...

Even poor people enjoy Netflix over TV.

Seriously, have you seen tv ads when the news isn't running? It should tell you a bit about the viewers.

I have no subscription services.

Wish I would have known that. Guess I didn't look hard enough.

Schitt's Creek was kind of a sleeper that took a season or two to get noticed. It wasn't an immediate hit like This Is Us or Lost. Most CBC shows are kind of under the radar.

I checked CW 50's schedule and it doesn't list the show yet... is there a date for when it will begin airing?

I also thought that FOX picked up syndication rights to it, but Fox 2 isn't airing it either...

Schitt's Creek will start airing on 50 at 2:30 AM Tuesday Morning,(Monday night.) I guess it's on so late is because of the name.

Or you can stream it whenever you'd like.

Such a great show. Levy and O'Hara are such a great pairing. Adored them in Best in Show and A Mighty Wind.

Schitt's Creek will air on CW7 at 12AM.

I think it will win a Golden Globe Award come January of 2021 & someone will open the envelope & say "No shit, Schitt's Creek!!"

You may be paying for it when ATSC 3.0 becomes reality. ATSC3.0 and the internet will work together in this new generation of television. The Networks want you to buy their product and NBC, CBS, ABC and Fox want to make money and be on an even playing field with internet, cable and satellite. So it could be bye-bye free television in the next 10 years.

Everyone is allowed to dream big, even Network TV executives.

There is a finite pool of money that people are willing to spend on TV, and now they'll get to compete for it with every other source out there. Good luck with that. I still have some contacts in the business, and the pie-in-the-sky ideas they're banking on to make money with ATSC 3.0 are just silly. Such as, pushing the auto industry to use ATSC 3.0 to do automotive systems and infotainment software updates.

Uh, TV Executive, ever here of 4G LTE that's already in many cars?

So yeah, wish 'em luck with their plans to make OTA a subscription service. If I'm paying for TV, it'll be sans commercials.

Amen

These are the same people who believe the Internet is radio.

Not bad, but Corner Gas is better.
