speaker_5HOST
This is huge.
speaker_4HOST
A live action series is currently in development at Peacock, and not just any random production company, it's Universal partnering with Seth MacFarlane's Fuzzy Door.
speaker_5HOST
Which is a phenomenal pairing when you really look at Fuzzy Door's BNA.
speaker_4HOST
Okay, but is it? I need to play devil's advocate here for a second.
speaker_4HOST
Because if you pair that kind of uncanny valley effect with Seth MacFarlane's style irreverent humor, it feels like this could so easily devolve into an unwatchable, incredibly expensive mess.
speaker_5HOST
It's a huge risk.
speaker_4HOST
So how does Universal possibly clear the uncanny valley here without spending like a two hundred and fifty million dollar Marvel budget?
speaker_5HOST
That is the exact friction point that kills most sci-fi adaptations right in the cradle.
Robyn Roxanne KincaidHOST
It's because Comcast spun off its cable networks into something called Versant.
Robyn Roxanne KincaidHOST
whatever that means, while NBC Universal hung on to the NBC Peacock logo.
Robyn Roxanne KincaidHOST
And then, repeating a lie that's been debunked over and over and over again, but that doesn't matter, he said,
speaker_3UNKNOWN
Politico got an illegal and ridiculous $8 million subscription, an all-time record, directly from the United States government under crooked Joe Biden in order to keep them alive.
Blake "LUXXURY" RobinHOST
[laughs]
Diallo RiddleHOST
NBC Universal, don't hate me.
Diallo RiddleHOST
By the way, there are a couple of these that I think are really missed opportunities.
Diallo RiddleHOST
I heard that Meatloaf was originally supposed to sing, uh, Total Eclipse of the Heart.
Dylan HaferHOST
And so later in the episode at this, like, weird surprise brunch for Sy at Maison Close, which is funnily enough, that's where they had the, um, the In The City premiere party, and also I think they did an event for Next Gen NYC there.
Dylan HaferHOST
I'm like, does Maison Close have, like, a package deal [laughs] with NBC Universal? Is it, like, a, a punch card how many times they rent it out they can get, like, something for free? I don't know.
Dylan HaferHOST
But, um, it's a little bit of a weird, um, a little bit of a weird vibe at this brunch because we start out by talking about how Daisy's son's tutor definitely wants to fuck her.
Dylan HaferHOST
Um, and then Erin's giving a weird toast that's kind of, you know, side eye at Jessel about how she would never kick her friends out of her party.
Georgio TakounakisHOST
We're going to talk about Orange County and the Vicky of it all.
Georgio TakounakisHOST
Because, yes, it is the Vicky show, but not for the reasons I think Bravo, NBCUniversal, and everyone included was hoping for.
Georgio TakounakisHOST
So...
Georgio TakounakisHOST
Yeah, that's on the roster.
Bachelor CluesHOST
Who owns Peacock? What is the conglomerate? Do we know?
Pace CaseHOST
NBCUniversal? Viacom?
Bachelor CluesHOST
Is that Vivendi? Who owns them? Who owns Peacock? NBCUniversal, which is Comcast.
Pace CaseHOST
Comcast.
Pace CaseHOST
And
Cynthia LittletonHOST
coming soon to you on, I believe, Peacock is working.
Cynthia LittletonHOST
NBCUniversal is developing it.
Tom McKennaGUEST
So it's a dark comedy.
Tom McKennaGUEST
It's a sci-fi lit RPG.
Robby SoaveHOST
This is a topic that a lot of people care about.
Robby SoaveHOST
So if there's information, almost at this point, for a company that is embedded with news, I know NBCUniversal has a lot of entities within it that are not all news, but a company that embeds themselves in news, They should consider that perhaps the people care about this topic enough that it's worth not playing games about and sharing with the public to just at least see what the perspective is around what Elon Musk may or may not be doing with AI and all the data that he has received so far already.
Erin MaguireHOST
I mean, and also, but they are though, right? They're putting it into these film festivals.
Erin MaguireHOST
People are viewing this documentary in real time and they are getting a five minute ovation.
Gibson JohnsGUEST
Yeah
KayaHOST
... of NBC Universal.
Gibson JohnsGUEST
Talk about a hustler.
KayaHOST
Lowkey.
Simon OwensHOST
Paramount, WarnerMedia, NBC, they all pay way more for sports rights.
Simon OwensHOST
Would you rather be the CEO of YouTube or Netflix right now, or would you rather be the CEO of WarnerMedia, Paramount, or NBCUniversal right now?
Jason KrebsGUEST
Well, let's, of course, the former.
Jason KrebsGUEST
I'd rather be the tech guys.
