MikeRapp Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 (edited) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_change#United_States There are a few in there. Bionic Woman moved from ABC to NBC, for example. Far more common in movies. Less so in music. But it does happen.More likely in this scenario would be another network sees the potential in the concept and approaches Bluecoats, Crown, Crossmen and Cavaliers. But again I don't know what rights of first refusal, if any, Fuse may have in future works. Edited October 4, 2016 by MikeRapp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barigirl78 Posted October 4, 2016 Author Share Posted October 4, 2016 (edited) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_change#United_States There are a few in there. Bionic Woman moved from ABC to NBC, for example. The question was about a show moving from a small to a large network. ABC and NBC were(and are) about the same size, more or less depending on the year. ABC had higher ratings than NBC that year. There are many cases of shows going from larger to smaller networks or switching "same sized" networks. Based on the list, I couldn't find a single example of a show moving upwards. We are getting way ahead of ourselves. Let's see how many people--other than the small drum corps community--watch first.

ranintothedoor Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 Getting excited for this! :-) Kinda weird knowing how it all will end. Also, interested to see how they incorporate the tarp disappearing and the staff RV catching fire. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not being facetious, but by far the biggest unknown is how they cover George Hopkins—with mid-tour staff dismissals, mid-week rewrites ad nauseum, et al. I think we all agree, that could go one way that might get a lot of eyeballs...and not be flattering to DCI. Personally, I am interested to see if/how they reference other corps, and especially Bluecoats, given how unconventional and successful their 2016 tour was.

Terri Schehr Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 I wonder if it will be like Hard Knocks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's my point. But let's be honest, George is a mercurial personality and he has never been shy around the camera. This was one very tumultuous season for Cadets. How much tumult do they show? Does anyone know if anyone in DCI has seen the show yet? When I worked on Undercover Boss, the first time we saw the show (or for that matter any of the footage) was when it aired on TV.

Or maybe they'll find proof that he really does deserve the nickname "Scruffy George". But, seriously, maybe seeing him up close like that only reinforces the preconceived notions of him, personally, while also emphasizing that the kids in the corps are amazing, and yet, just kids. I'm hopeful that it's inspiring and paints the kids accurately. The adults (especially Hop) are grizzled. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garfield Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 A co-worker was just describing to me a show he saw on Vice TV about Chinese infiltration of our technology... And then he said he saw a commercial (on Vice) for a show coming up on drum corps (he knows I'm a fan). I asked specifically if he saw the commercial on Vice and he confirmed it. I've not seen ads on any other cable stations that I watch. Is there a cross-advertising even tacit agreement among similar stations? Maybe Vice and Fuse are sister stations of the same owner - I don't know. But I thought it was cool that he saw an ad for "Clash..." on a different channel.
