so coming to the end of the show and cbs says tv6 bought over the rights to it....

that happened at 9pm - I don't think it had anything to do with Big Bang Theory

[Rush]

Agreed. Happened exactly at 9:00
Pm. It was for the next show "crazy ones"

[speedist]

Which is why flow sux ballz. *burns tyres*

[sharkman121]

It happened again a short while ago... I think its some error.

[S_2NR]

Flow has no ethics. All this buying rights BS. Underhand dealings to push more traffic tv6's way most of the time. Do some research and ull find out nobody buy rights but this is Trinidad so what yu go do

[javishm]

exactly how d hell tv6 could afford the rights for these shows

[wagonrunner]

eztv.it no care.
watched both episodes and enjoyed em

who tell u tv6 didnt buy the rights? and once they do flow has no say they are legally obligated to block it

not sure about directv though- since u receiving it direct from a satellite

i did notice a couple shows tv6 advertising as 'Blocked on cable'

[S_2NR]

Remember the whole boxing match drama?
Contacted wwe to see if CNC 3 bought rights. They didn't know who cnc3 is. Just one example. Is underhand deals going on. Flow is the worst. When ppl call and complain they try to pacify u with compensation, premium channels for free etc. They have no shame

I wouldn't doubt they make a underhand deal with whoever to increase their ad revenue then flow gets a cut. Just a guess. And why is there local ads on the same cable which i pay for. No ethics. Directv never blocks anything

[maj. tom]

you mean syndication rights?


what going on?

nevermind. Hulu, Netflix, CBS.com

[Swisha]

So how come almost every week CNC3's name gets called on RAW as one of the WWE's broadcast partners?

Just relaying what happened and my possible reasons for such. I'm no TV expert.

[S_2NR]

Questions still unanswered..
Why pay for cable if local channels just "buy rights" to shows?
Why is there local ads on cable that I pay for?
Why am I bombarded by ads in an on screen TV guide which I also pay for?

If their service is ad supported. Prices should reflect that.

Flow is the worst.

[Duane 3NE 2NR]

^ you pay for Flow's service which includes video ads and ads on the TV guide menu.
Paying for CBS does not mean CBS won't show you any ads.

[S_2NR]

I'm talking about local ads duane

Ever thought about just not using flow

[Duane 3NE 2NR]

I'm talking about local ads duane

yes and Flow's service includes local ads played over foreign ads

it's part of the service you pay for. If they didn't have those ads then the service would have to cost the customers more.

or are you one of those people who shun local content?

[pete]

I don't see the big deal of having local ads over the foreign ads. I actually prefer NO ads when I'm watching shows.

As said before, if you don't like flow's service, get something else.

[S_2NR]

Do you know for a fact that flows service would cost more without local ads or are u just assuming? Are u a part of their accounting department?

Lol@shun local content. Grasping at straws there.

And I know i have options. Doesn't change the point I'm trying to make

[Duane 3NE 2NR]

^ an invalid one?

In order to maintain their revenue yes! They would have to charge more for their service to replace the revenue lost from local ad bookings.
I don't need to work in their accounts dept to see that simple logic.

I can't believe you had to explain that

[SmokeyGTi]

btw same thing happened for the new series hostages...
ireally hate when this happens - especially with live shows, dotish people in studio dohknow when to stop the adverts and sometimes they cut into the show itself..

[speedist]

Um, bros, Is all this beatup necessary?

You are assuming they are running at a loss. What if they are making more profits from doing these things? Do you know their profit margin? U have no way of knowing unless u work there, in accounting.

Greed is a typical trait of local businessmen. I don't think I have to explain that one to you.
