“You still have to have Lifetime, because that viewer base is a lot more established and committed. Dropping an established channel is more of a weakness than not having an emerging channel.”
Adi Kishore
“VOD is perfect for established hits, and for reruns of shows that didn't have enough viewers to keep them on the air. 'Freaks and Geeks' had a lot of people watching, but not enough to keep it on the air. With VOD, you don't have to worry about getting a 15 share. If a show already had its network run and the production expenses are paid, anything after that is gravy.”
Robert Thompson
“We are committed to helping viewers enjoy the wide breadth of our programs across an equally wide range of devices and distribution models. Apple has developed a distribution platform that is attractive to consumers while at the same time providing the safeguards against theft that are so important to us and to every content provider. We are pleased to partner with them in this new venture.”
Bob Wright
“We are outraged and dismayed for our viewers that DISH has unilaterally chosen to pull Lifetime and Lifetime Movie Network and deny millions of women their favorite channels. We value our viewers' loyalty and don't understand why DISH would take away the most popular women's networks, especially over a holiday weekend. We regret the disruption of service our viewers are experiencing, but appreciate all of the support they are already showing and we hope DISH network will listen to them and give them back their Lifetime.”
Betty Cohen
“The still must tease with the promise of a story the viewer of it itches to be told.”
Cindy Sherman
“Each episode is going to have a number of puzzles for viewers to solve, and there are six or seven different subplots swirling around. It's really going to be something that rewards the attentive and patient viewer.”
Wentworth Miller
“The best way to get your message out is word of mouth. The most important thing is to have (viewers) trusted in their lives tell them that they have to watch a show.”
