And I think what we find is, most of the creators we work or try to work with really respond to the kind of stories that we’re telling, whether it’s something like “The Cleaning Lady” or “Krapopolis” - where our animation brand remains the strongest in the marketplace, regardless of the type of platform - we still really have incredible relationships and are able to leverage our independence in a way that’s even better than we thought. And we’re both trying to be independent, successful sibling companies. What’s great is most of the creative community is completely aware that we’re very separate companies and, as Charlie says, we don’t give feedback to Fox News on what their programming is and they don’t give it to us. I anticipate within relationships between the companies there will be some overlap, we just haven’t identified that first one yet.ĭo you find it difficult to attract talent and make any of the new direct deals Fox Entertainment is making with creators because of your connection to Fox News under the same parent company?

With MarVista being one of the major providers to Tubi and being a new but terrific piece in Fox Entertainment capabilities, I expect to be doing stuff - both long form and hopefully series with MarVista, as well.

But that is absolutely a possibility and something we’ve talked about, we just have to find the right one.

There isn’t one specifically yet that we’ve identified to say that one of the movies could premiere on Tubi and have a window. Will you be airing any Tubi originals on Fox linear? On “Bedrock,” we haven’t cast any voices yet, but we are in the process of casting voices for the presentation that we’re making with Warner Animation. Where are you at with the animated “Flintstones” spinoff series “Bedrock” from Elizabeth Banks? There were no threats to move it to ABC, and it was just a very thoughtful negotiation on an important show for both companies. Everyone involved believes it’s always in the best interest of the show, and therefore the creators and talent, to stay on the platform you were born on, and so that was always the goal. This was just a case of old-school, third-party negotiation on a hit show that went down to the wire. It actually closed as I was walking into our upfront. And in the case of “9-1-1,” it was actually a second past the last second.

But really, the truth is this is old-school, down-to-the-wire negotiation that, like a lot of these negotiations, come down literally to the last second. I would have to believe that every network would want “9-1-1,” if they could afford it. We heard some rumors that 20th Television was in talks to move “9-1-1” to ABC, its sister network, for Season 6 - and that was what led to that very last-minute renewal of “9-1-1,” but not “Lone Star,” during upfronts.
