A "Hitmakers" panel at a Hollywood Radio and Television Society lunch
at the Beverly Wilshire showed their disapproval for NBC's Leno at 10
move--"Closer" showrunner James Duff wondered if the Peacock was
turning itself into AM radio (no--they'd have Limbaugh, Hannity or
Michael Savage if they were doing that), Peter Tolan ("Rescue Me") and
Chuck Lorre ("2.5 Men," "Big Bang") kicked NBC out of the Big 4 and Al
Jean ("The Simpsons") and Jenji Kohan ("Weeds") wondered if Carson and
Barbara Mandrell were coming back to the Peacock (last I heard,
Mandrell is still alive):http://www.reuters.com/article/televisionNews/idUSTRE4B91N320081210 Note that three of the five panelists are currently working for cable networks (and none of them are working for the Peacock). --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Like TV only smarter.
