The Business

Hollywood news banter

The numbers are in and Peak TV continues to grow. It’s how the numbers or original scripted series are broken up that tell the real story though. Basic cable shows are actually down, but streaming shows? Those are way, way up.

  • The numbers are in and Peak TV continues to grow. It’s how the numbers or original scripted series are broken up that tell the real story though. Basic cable shows are actually down, but streaming shows? Those are way, way up.

  • The SAG nominations are in, and as usual, there are some unusual picks. ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ for best ensemble? Really? Meanwhile, some snubs for ‘Roma’ and ‘Green Book,’ and a ‘Star is Born’ shines.

  • Yet another Les Moonves story. Cybill Shepherd says Moonves cancelled her show ‘Cybill’ shortly after she rebuffed his advances.
