IN THE NEWS
Jennifer Hudson and Harvey Fierstein will star in NBC musical event Hairspray Live!, set to air Wednesday, December 7. Hudson landed the role of Motormouth Maybelle while Fierstein takes on Edna Turnblad, the part he played in the 2002 Broadway production. They’ll be in experienced hands – Grease: Live director Alex Rudzinsky and Kenny Leon (The Wiz Live!) are co-directing.
The U.S. Justice Department said Monday it will allow Charter Communications to buy Time Warner Cable and Bright House Networks, which would create the second-biggest home internet provider after Comcast. FCC chairman Tom Wheeler recommended governmental approval of the acquisition, subject to seven-year conditions aimed at “bringing and protecting competition to the video marketplace and increasing broadband deployment.” No problem, responded Charter:
“The conditions that will be imposed ensure Charter’s current consumer-friendly and pro-broadband businesses practices will be maintained by New Charter.”
Saturday Night Live is reducing commercial load by 30 percent next season. Instead of ads, viewers will see original sponsored content from ad partners. “We are excited to try something new and unique that will shape and drive advertiser content too,” said Linda Yaccarino, chairman, advertising sales and client-partnerships, NBCUniversal.
NBC isn’t the only network turning to sponsored content to connect brands with consumers. Learn more about how advertising is being reinvented at the June 15 Cynopsis webinar,

Megyn Kelly landed an interview with Donald Trump for Megyn Kelly Presents, her May 17 special on Fox. Kelly had been a target of the GOP frontrunner in attacks Fox News Channel called “a sick obsession,” but the two appear to have cleared the air during a private meeting on April 13. “He was gracious with his time and I asked him to consider an interview. I am happy to announce he has agreed, and I look forward to a fascinating exchange,” said Kelly. Portions of the interview will also air on FNC’s The Kelly File the following night.
WGN America renewed Underground for a second season. WGN’s most-watched program ever, the Underground Railroad thriller is averaging 3 million total viewers in Live+7 delivery. A ten-episode season will begin production this summer for a 2017 debut; season one finale airs Wednesday, May 11 at 10p, preceded by a marathon starting at 1p. Underground is outpacing the net’s 2015-2016 primetime average by 508 percent in total viewers and 1005 (!!!) percent among A18-49.
Mom co-creator Chuck Lorre, series stars Allison Janney and recurring guest star Emily Osment will be part of the “White House of Champions of Change for Advancing Prevention, Treatment and Recovery” event on April 29. The trio will participate in a panel discussion about addiction. It’s familiar territory for the Mom family – Janney plays a recovering addict on the CBS comedy, while Osment’s character died of a drug overdose in February.
Revolt CEO Keith Clinkscales joined the cable chorus objecting to an FCC set-top box proposal that would require cable operators to make programming available to third parties. “The rules would force existing TV companies to hand over programs they create to companies like Google to use and monetize without negotiating with, or paying, creators anything for the rights to that programming,” said Clinkscales in a letter to President Obama, who came out in favor of the measure. “This kind of economic exploitation will devalue the work of all creative and allow others to poach their value.” Minorities, he added, would be particularly at risk. “We are the canaries in coalmine for this radial experiment to reshape the video market by FCC fiat,” said Clinkscales, “and you know what happens to the canaries.”
Yesterday’s
Cynopsis poll, asking whether Kelly Ripa overreacted by missing work after learning (just shortly before the news was made public) that her co-host Michael Strahan was leaving in September to take a job on Good Morning America, blew up our web site. Okay, not really, but it did have twice as many responses – in a matter of hours – as any other poll we’ve published. At press time, 55 percent of respondents were Team Kelly. And counting….

ADVERTISING AND BRANDS
Upfront TV negotiations for ad agency holding company Publicis will be centralized this year, handled by media buyer John Muszynski, said Publicis Media Exchange CEO Dave Penski in Broadcasting & Cable. “We have very high spends on different networks, 35 percent or 40 percent of their spend,” said Penski. “We’re going to have great leverage there. For our clients, all boats should rise.”
A new report from GroupM, noting fraud and viewability issues, called for the ad industry to collaborate and address problems of integrity in digital advertising. “Interaction 2016” also estimated there are ad-blockers on about 25 percent of U.S. consumers’ devices, and predicts digital will account for 31 percent of all ad spend this year.
A combination of linear TV and VOD might enhance ad delivery, according to an Ipsos study conducted on behalf of Music Choice. Ad recall among 6-11-year-old girls for a toy brand was 52 percent for viewers of both TV and VOD, versus 30 percent for TV only. TV/VOD respondents were also more likely to take actions like visiting the brand’s web site (56 percent) versus TV only (29 percent).

RESEARCH
The number of pay-TV homes fell an estimated 2.2 percent year-over-year and cable network subs dropped 3.2 percent, according to Pivotal Research Group’s Brian Wieser. “These figures suggest trends around ‘cord-shaving’ may be accelerating,” said Wieser of his analysis of Nielsen data. The Disney group was down 4.1 percent, followed by Viacom (3.6 percent), NBCUni and A+E Networks (3.3 percent each), Scripps Networks Interactive (2.6 percent), AMC Networks (2.2 percent), Discovery Networks (2.8 percent) and Fox (.7 percent).

It was good news coming and going for AMC. The April 19 series premiere of The Night Manager delivered 1.6 million total viewers and 455,000 among A18-49 in Live+3, up a net debut record 70 percent in total viewership and 72 percent in the demo versus Live+SD Nielsens.
