And now it's being flipped to someone else.

And the crazy thing is, is that this whole time, what is the single best brand in television?

HBO.

HBO has managed through all of this stuff

to just plug along and make great TV shows and great movies and great miniseries and great documentaries against all odds while their parent company was just absolutely buffeted by various billionaire wins.

And to that extent, the answer is I don't want this to happen.

I hope that somehow it doesn't happen.

If you have Joe's job or my job

you know, you have an idea for a TV show or a movie, there's what, half a dozen places that can buy it.

And when two of them merge...

That means there's only five places who can buy it now.

There's 16% less opportunity to sell an idea you have.

Like wetsuits.

Where do we take wetsuits?

Wetsuits has a very slim chance of being bought now because of this murder.

And so I don't want anyone to buy it.

I will say, though, that, you know...

at the very least, I guess you would say, Netflix just makes stuff.

They make a ton of stuff.

They might make too much stuff, but they do make stuff and they have a platform, a global platform to actually distribute it.
