As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

I don't think that will get legs. Merging? No way. Netflix buying out BET in some effort to continue DEI...now you're going to get play.

I should really work in PR.

Yeah, Netflix has a $500 Bn market cap, BET is like $7.5 Billion according to a quick google.
Netflix stands up to Donald Trump's cancel culture against DEI by buying BET and putting them in charge of future programming! Share/Retweet to stand against Donald's racist hateful march against progress!!1!!1

I bet if they tried just a little, they could get colors that were even harder to differentiate.

I bet a woman made it. Because they see 5 different shades when a dude would say "uhh, pink."

So, you've all heard that Netflix and WB had entered exclusive negotiations for WB, which has everyone screaming end of days. So much so that Hollywood elite were all asking Trump to take action to block it.

That might all be moot though.

Today, Paramount launched a hostile takeover bid.

Great, more right wing media control. Which Trump would approve.

Considering Hollywood was asking Trump to kill the Netflix deal, I don't know what you want to happen.

Besides, the guy at the top of WB is right wing, and that didn't change shit on CNN.
