BREAKING: Paramount is projected to win the Warner Bros Discovery acquisition as Netflix declined to raise their bid essentially dropping out of the race.

Paramount & Warner Bros would essentially create one large mega company powered by Warner Bros Pics and Paramount Pics and managed by Skydance.

Would also mention that Sycamore Studios is working very close with the ‘Madeline’ creator, Ludwig Bemelmans’ family to ensure it stays in its true form. Sycamore is a new studio catered towards kids & families founded in 2022 by award winning film makers Timothy Reckart & Christian McGuigan.

As this week approaches, this should be a very interesting one for Warner Bros and whether Paramount will offer a higher bid or just stick with Netflix. There’s also much more interference with the government now so it’s no telling who will get it. I’ll be covering any big updates on both accounts.

‘Erin & Aaron’ premieres almost exactly three years later on Nickelodeon UK and likely other international regions from its April 2023 premiere on Nickelodeon.

The show’s rights were sold to Netflix internationally and I guess they had an exclusivity window. Netflix US also streams the show.

Basically If ‘SpongeBob’ gets an airing on Nickelodeon expect to see another show on Nicktoons. If a movie airs during the slot expect to see a ‘SpongeBob’ airing on Nicktoons. Gotta continue to make it ‘SpongeBob, All Day Every Day ya know! 😆

A few months ago the Universal Kids naming returned as a renaming of the Peacock Kids YouTube Channel while Peacock Jr became Universal Jr. A lot of full episodes and clips of Peacock’s remaining shows have been uploaded there. While other videos are Dreamworks & Illumination content.

Peacock has removed a lot of their Sprout/Universal Kids programming in recent months as well. Most of the kids tv content left is the few Peacock originals like the short lived CGI ‘Caillou’ revival series & cheap short form series from YouTube.

I don’t think much will really change right now. I think Warner Bros really sees something with Netflix and vice versa. If the shareholders vote for Paramount and/or Netflix can’t prove to be a viable option then I could see it on Paramount. Or Warner Bros might just abandon the sale and move on
