They got paid because they are unique talents and very few people can do what they do. Similar to why elite athletes get paid alot of money. |
Cancelling Hulu. Only reason I kept them around was for Letterkenny and Ric & Morty. It was starting to occur to me that HBO really has nothing to offer now that GoT is gone but MAX will keep me around for a while.

So many people only see "overnight sensations" and don't see the years of toiling that's required for nearly everyone in the entertainment business. There are tens of thousands of people that tried to make it in the business but after struggling for years on end, financially and emotionally, they pack it up and move on. |

There are thousands of people that move to Los Angeles each year to be in the entertainment business who realize that it takes years of hard work and little income in order for it to "pay off", so they just decide to move on with their lives. And unlike a college degree, the entertainment business offers no guarantee of earnings, unless you're working in a "regular position" such as finance, legal and so on. It would completely suck to be a young person trying to "make it" while paying $1,800 a month for a crappy Single apartment in 2020. |
Might as well say Seth MacFarlane didn't/doesn't work hard for his success.
All these talents deserve what they get and are therefore getting it. I wonder what George Clooney' cut is. |

I think we're having miscommunications regarding the matter. No doubt Dane knows way more about the entertainment industry than me, but all I was getting at is that Trey & Matt totally rocked the deal . |

But they didn't "fleece" HBO Max, who paid more than $1.5 billion for the streaming rights to Two & A Half Men and Big Bang Theory or Netflix, which paid more than $550 million for the rights to Seinfeld. Netflix was in on the South Park licensing but offered $550 million for worldwide rights whereas their deal with HBO Max is for Domestic airing only, meaning they'll still be able to profit from International Territories. |
Lets not derail this thread.
Dane, how are you liking HBO Max? |

For starters, how in the world can they call it HBO "Max" when they're launching with ZERO 4K, HDR and UHD content? I receive HBO for free from AT&T but if I didn't, I wouldn't sign up for it because at $14.99 per month, it's a joke compared to Netflix, Amazon, Hulu and especially Disney+, which is less than half the price. AT&T is completely clueless about the entertainment business and they're shedding Direct TV customers by the millions each quarter, so it comes as no surprise to me that HBO Max will be shit for at least another 9 months and probably a full year at the earliest. |

AT&T has too many options. HBO now, HBO go, HBO Max, AT&T watch TV, AT&T Now, AT&T TV, Direct TV.... Last I heard they were trying to sell Direct TV. Probably a good thing. |

This didn't do much for me. And the menu sucks. And my "continue watching" did not port over.
