Mary-Kate and Ashley say that they're too busy with their various businesses to at least appear on one episode of Fuller House, Netflix's reboot of the 90s sitcom beloved by Millenials, but wish everyone well: http://www.thewrap.com/mary-kate-and-ashley-olsen-wont-return-for-netflix-full-house-revival/?utm_source=newsletterutm_medium=emailutm_campaign=mailchimp Which now leaves Bob Saget and Lori Laughlin as the only original cast members not committed to at least one episode. Candace D.J. Cameron Bure, Jodie Stephanie Sweeten. John Uncle Jesse Stamos and Andrea Kimmy Gibler Barber are going to star in the series, with Dave Joey Coulier to appear in at least one episode.

[TV orNotTV] Re: Late show finale
The cost of building such a network is probably still enormous... someone, somewhere, always seems to own the rights to someone's likenesses, and if it's a musical artist, their repertory as well... and it doesn't help that some of said rights-holders repeatedly pester our legislators to extend applicable law so they'll keep 'em. I'm no expert, but I think the standard contracts allow for rebroadcast. The legal problems come with other media, like DVDs, which is where those demands kick in. Even now, production companies will save a few bucks by not licensing music rights for DVDs before it's obvious that they'll be successful enough to make that an issue. The harder part for Kevin's network (an interesting idea) would be dealing with all the material that was topical at the time. Johnny's jokes about Earl Butz don't resonate much any more, even among people who remember him. -- -- TV or Not TV The Smartest (TV) People!

There's a UK sitcom I liked called Drop The Dead Donkey which was a sort of Murphy Brown type of show that featured jokes about current events and politicians. For reruns, which is when I discovered it, it was preceded by a five or ten second Chyron and narrator who gave the date the episode aired, and the two or three people or events in the news that were going to be joked about.

[TV orNotTV] Re: ABC Fall Annotated
Moi, back on the 13th this month: Bristology addendum: the b'cast net will simulcast the ESPYs and that one NFL postseason matchup currently held by ESPN. MediaLife http://www.medialifemagazine.com/espn-upfront-more-with-abc/ (link) Joel McHale will host the awards show http://www.tvweek.com/in-depth/2015/05/joel-mchale-set-to-host-the-2015-espys-on-abc-july-15/, per pee-arr found by TVWeek (link). And, just for closure: Joe Hass, to moi that same day: Question: does anyone remember during the NFLN/CBS simulcasts if the spots were the same on both outlets? A *Variety* http://variety.com/2014/tv/news/cbs-unprecedented-push-nfl-thursday-night-football-1201297011/ (link) article when the package was about to début in '14 mentioned (emphasis added): The two networks are pooling their talent and resources for “TNF.” “The NFL was very clear that this was going to be a co-branded production and a co-branded property with the NFL Network,” says [CBS Sports honcho Sean] McManus. Both network logos appear in the graphics. NFL Network on-air talent, including analyst Deion Sanders, will appear on the CBS pregame show, while CBS studio analysts will appear on NFL Network’s pregame show, which starts earlier. CBS’s top announcing team of Jim Nantz and Phil Simms will handle all the games, whether simulcast or not, and CBS’s “A” production team will run the show. *The same commercials will run on both networks during the simulcast. *Ratings for the simulcast will be cumed; McManus expects the simulcast will increase the Eye’s overall ratings. Assuming the NFL hits typical ratings for pro football, CBS will be able to use the “TNF” simulcasts to promote its other programming to a vast audience. *But those watching on NFL Network won’t see all CBS promos*: The cable net is obliged to give more time to local providers than CBS must give to local affiliates, so some Eye promos will be replaced by local spots on NFL Network.
