Sounds like Paramount bosses are bidding in anger.
I think the political angle of this should not be discounted

It has really strange bugs like with an hour left of a Champions League match it thought it had reached the end credits of the show and tried to automatically start showing something else. Was confusing figuring out how to tell it I wanted to really watch the "end credits" which was the last hour of the soccer contest.
That's interesting as the Champions League is the most compelling thing for me to consider P+ subscription. Unfortunately for P+ it just hasn't been compelling enough. I feel for the Peacock subscription to watch EPL, but even with that subscription there are matches only on USA and maybe also on Telemundo. I can only imagine P+ doing similar, and I'm just not here for it
EPL requiring both Peacock and a cable subscription to watch all of the games is extremely annoying. But I do it anyway.
All of those combined let me watch all the Arsenal games except FA and Carabao Cup.
> [Paramount say Netflix deal] would lead to “a challenging regulatory approval process.” "Only we have sufficiently greased the current government to get this deal done"
(not a joke) I wonder to what extent the ability to produce a Rush Hour 4 will effect the deal. https://www.cnbc.com/2025/11/25/trump-pushed-paramount-reviv...
No matter who wins, we lose.

I think it gives Netflix an advantage. When it comes up in front of a judge he'll note the obvious conflict of interest and Trump's idiotic pronouncements, like the fact that he said he will be personally involved, and rule for Netflix.
Does WB have to pay the breakup fee to Netflix if a Paramount hostile takeover succeeds?
This has nothing to do with the Netflix bid. Warner bros is being divided into the cable TV stations + discover channel stations and the movie studio and the backlog is separate. Netflix wants the movie studio + tv back catalog
I must be thte only one who like Paramount+ Honestly would rather have the Warner Bros content over there than on Netflix.
Eh, I liked it, but canceled my service after they made a bribe to the current president to approve one of their acquisitions. I like Star Trek plenty, but not enough to support anti-American businesses like Paramount.
