From: [email protected] <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Tom Wolper Sent: Wednesday, February 24, 2021 12:28 PM To: TV or not TV <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [TV orNotTV] Seth Meyers' contract w/ NBC expires in just 5 days On Tue, Feb 23, 2021 at 6:42 PM PGage <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> > wrote: I think the question is, are they arguing over how much of a raise, or how much of a pay cut, is he going to get. If there were a conflict, one or both of the sides would be leaking to the media in order to control the narrative. If NBC was calling on Meyers to take a pay cut in order to continue hosting we'd hear it. If Meyers was unhappy with NBC or the proposed deal there would be rumors around that he was willing to leave Late Night if only to get a sense of how much money would be out there if he jumped to Comedy Central or TBS or whoever. If NBC wants to cut the budget for the show they could continue with remote interviews once the pandemic is suppressed. Suddenly yanking a host and replacing him with a new host without preparing the audience would be fatal for the show. Plus I just checked Sue Trowbridge's late night lineups page and Meyers has new shows next week. That's not a sign his dismissal is imminent. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TVorNotTV" group.
