Most big companies in general are doing layoffs nowadays.

As much as layoffs suck, this should be happening.

The redundancies are ridiculous now that streaming tends to merge previously disparate formats.

Shoutout to my guy Zaslav, taking all the heat off of the other streamers by becoming the face of shitty hollywood business practices that everyone was going to do

Media corporations are getting the big headlines, but we're definitely going into a recession. Companies in every industry nationwide are scaling back, and they always start with cutting jobs.

Maybe the dark age of television will finally end and companies will start making television that people like instead of the grimdark snooze fests called "prestige television".

For years the studios have been trying to lure viewers with critically acclaimed shows that have cult followings but are ignored by the masses. Only Netflix makes money of the major streaming services. And only Netflix makes romcom movies.

It should be clear that making shows that critics love and audiences hate is not a winning strategy. We will hopefully see the end of prestige television and the return to good television.
