• This will prompt a wave of pre-upfronts surprise belt-tightening at all the broadcasters (except CBS). So much dead weight out there. Good to put the fear of God into these folks right as they’re starting to roll on all these pilots. Watch your back!

• NBC has the best mobile app there is. CBS is in dire need of hiring a team to create them one. CBS shows are the only ones I’m unable to watch on my iPhone when on the go, so I always so those last.

• I know MOST of these execs. They needed to go. 2 I know were completely useless. I don’t blame the takeover… They just sucked at what they did. I worked there and know all about it. #kudos
