What's NBC? I think that's something my grandmother used to talk about sometimes.
I'm being semi-facetious here. I think "legacy media", particularly network broadcasters, are coasting off brand recognition earned in a bygone era that younger generations never experienced and never will. That's obviously not sustainable in the long run.
- whoisjuan 6y agoI know you're being cheeky, but NBC owns "Friends" and "The Office". Those two series alone account for a large number of streaming hours in Netflix.
- catalogia 6y agoFair point, but both those shows initially found popularity before the streaming era. Is NBC still capable of producing content that people will binge-watch 10-20 years later for a nostalgia kick?
- bobthepanda 6y agoSNL is still fairly popular, as are Brooklyn Nine-nine, Late Night, The Tonight Show, etc. And 30 Rock and Parks and Recreation wrapped up not that long ago. They also do have a major ace up their sleeve as the official American broadcaster of the Olympics.
- dwighttk 6y agoDo people binge-watch Late Night or Tonight Show episodes from 15 yrs ago? Or even SNL besides individual sketches?
