David J. Lynch, to moi, Aug 31st 2022: Given that the producers ripped themselves off, I imagine that it was pretty clear that A+E owns everything about the original Live PD and the question is whether what they own is specific enough to be enforceable and also general enough that On Patrol Live is infringement. I mean, seriously, the same hosts (e.g. G_dd@mned f___ing Dan Abrams), content, format? Who really owns the IP here? Network or production company? https://ew.com/tv/ae-sues-reelz-calling-on-patrol-live-blatant-rip-off-live-pd/ <https://ew.com/tv/ae-sues-reelz-calling-on-patrol-live-blatant-rip-off-live-pd/#:~:text=A&E%20Television%20Networks%20is%20suing,the%20former%20series%20Live%20PD.> (link) B -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TVorNotTV" group.
