4 2012-2013 Broadcast TV Trends

5 2012-2013 Year in Review: Broadcast TV Trends Comedy 28 half-hours on Fall 2012 broadcast TV schedule -Up from 20 half-hours in Fall 2011 -Up from 16 half-hours in Fall 2010 17 new comedy pick-ups for 2012-2013 broadcast TV season -15 cancelled -2 renewals

6 2012-2013 Year in Review: Broadcast TV Trends Comedy: Key Take-Away Success is more likely when series and strategy are aligned. -CBS and NBC had no discernible comedy strategy. -ABC set out to produce “broad family comedies” and delivered on that strategy. -FOX’s strategy was to use The Mindy Project to build out its profile of “young, connected” viewers on Tuesday.

7 2012-2013 Year in Review: Broadcast TV Trends Less Predictable / Safe Renewals & Pick-Ups Top 20 series Unforgettable initially cancelled by CBS and replaced with Vegas.

8 2012-2013 Year in Review: Broadcast TV Trends

9 Less Predictable / Safe Renewals & Pick-Ups Top 20 series Unforgettable initially cancelled by CBS and replaced with Vegas. ABC, CBS, and The CW ended long-term relationships with their most successful producers by passing on their new projects. -ABC passed on Marc Cherry -CBS passed on Jerry Bruckheimer -The CW passed on Mark Schwahn NBC bucked this trend – kind of – and went further into the Dick Wolf business with Chicago Fire.

10 2012-2013 Year in Review: Broadcast TV Trends Less Predictable / Safe Renewals & Pick-Ups: Key Take-Aways Emotional responses to “strong” pilots can lead to irrational decision- making. "I don't know if it's what went wrong. It was more about what went right with the new pilots. It started very strong in the beginning of the season. They were continuing to produce great episodes. Every show knows that when they get to end of their first season, they are gonna be in competition with new pilots, and that's what happened. We had a very strong, very good crop of pilots coming in. That forces you to make very difficult decisions“ – Nina Tassler on Unforgettable’s initial cancellation. Past performance is no guarantee of future results – but it is certainly a good indicator.

11 2012-2013 Year in Review: Broadcast TV Trends Move Away from “The Middle” in Drama Decrease in presence of procedurals and detective/mystery dramas across the TV landscape. -11 procedurals in 2012-2013 vs. 24 in prior year. -14 detective/mysteries in 2012-2013 vs. 23 in prior year. Increase in suspense/thriller and period dramas. -12 suspense/thriller series in 2012-2013, up from 6 in the prior year. - 11 period dramas in 2012-2013, up from 5 in the prior year.

12 2012-2013 Year in Review: Broadcast TV Trends Move Away from “The Middle” in Drama: Key Take-Away Smart, calculated moves away from “the middle” can pay off. -The Following on FOX -Hannibal on NBC Balance is important. -ABC’s drama slate lacked it. -NBC’s drama slate had it.
