Eisen-verse Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 So, I'm sure a lot of people have already stated this as a suggestion but I thought I'd throw it out there if it hadn't already been said. Again, If anyone else has already mentioned this then I'm sorry. The process of working with a TV Show Time Slot has to be overhauled in some way. I Understand the process of needing to "prove" yourself before you can get a primetime time slot, however, as of right now you can only get a show at 12 AM. Then if you've moved up from there... You don't really have a chance to re-negotiate with the TV network to bring your show to an earlier time slot. You're stuck at that time slot if you stay with the channel. If you try to jump ship to another TV Channel... bam... again 12 AM. I can see this for a company like DAVE, but a company like TCW... USPW... SWF.. etc. They shouldn't have to have their shows air at 12 AM. Hell, the SWF should probably get a default of primetime. haha. Anyways, Just had to voice my opinion. Cheers.

[/QUOTE] There's no "proving" involved, the time slot is based upon the network's definition and the promotion's size and product. That's all it has ever been, I don't know where this rumour about proving even started, it's not even close to being true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may have just been my thwarted vision of why or I may have read it somewhere. Who knows. All in all, Thanks for clearing that up for me adam. Cheers.

djlightning Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 It still would be nice to be able to renegociate with current networks, while still under contract and be able to make changes to your shows for future seasons. Like Impact going from 1 hour to 2. Also would be nice to be able to negociate with a new company to take over your show, in the next season, as WWE has switched stations often, without even missing a show. I believe as it is now you'd have to not run your show for 3 months to achieve this in game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FOr example, you could go from Raw, To, MONDAY NIGHT RAW! Or RAW IS WAR! I think they actually did something like that themselves a couple of times.
