Heroes shortened to 18 to 20 eps

http://blog.zap2it.com/frominsidethebox/2009/04/heroes-season-four-may-be-shorter.html

I myself kinda like this

Talk about it below

Kings to saturday nights?

from tvbythenumbers:

NBC is pulling the plug on Kings airings on Sunday night, opting instead to air Dateline.  Kings episodes will be burned off on Saturday nights at 8pm beginning April 18.   Given the numbers, which were already not good, and on the trend of getting worse, it’s hardly a surprise.

From James Hibberd:

Sunday’s Kings episode was seen by 3.6 million viewers and received a 1.1 rating among adults 18-49. Yet Dateline had a 1.5 rating in its half hour leading into Kings. NBC suspects an expanded Dateline will provide a better lead-in for 9 p.m.’s Celebrity Apprentice, which has seen some audience erosion in recent weeks that might be attributed to Kings.

I am sadden by this but o well

APPLE NBC DIVORCE PART 2

Here is a great blog posting on the whole thing

http://mediabiz.blogs.cnnmoney.com/2007/08/31/why-the-networks-dont-need-itunes/

NBC NO LONGER ON iTunes

From ilounge.com:

Apple has announced that they will not be offering NBC television shows for the upcoming season on iTunes. In the announcement, Apple revealed that NBC wanted it to pay more than double the wholesale price for each episode, a move that would have resulted in the retail price of each episode increasing from $1.99 per episode to an eye-popping $4.99 per episode. Apple also noted that ABC, CBS, FOX and The CW, along with more than 50 cable networks, are signed up to sell TV shows from their upcoming season on iTunes at $1.99 per episode.

“We are disappointed to see NBC leave iTunes because we would not agree to their dramatic price increase,” said Eddy Cue, Apple’s vice president of iTunes. “We hope they will change their minds and offer their TV shows to the tens of millions of iTunes customers.”

Because the agreement between Apple and NBC runs out in December, should Apple have begun sales of fall series, NBC could have pulled the content from the store mid-season. To avoid this potential problem, Apple decided not to carry the shows at all. According to the announcement, NBC provided iTunes with three of its ten top-selling shows last season, accounting for 30 percent of iTunes TV show sales.
