Under Chris McCarthy, who added Showtime to his purview that also includes Paramount Network and fellow linear brands Comedy Central and MTV, the premium cable network is expected to focus on originals with \u201cfranchise potential\u201d as he looks to cut costs at the cabler. It\u2019s unclear how or if Showtime\u2019s current executive leadership team will be impacted by the merger and rebranding.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n    As for the mass removal, Showtime is expected to let the rights holders for the impacted programs shop the <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">series<\/a>. <em>Let the Right One In, <\/em>for example, is already being shopped. The affected titles will also be removed from Paramount+, where subscribers who pay for the bundled service with Showtime currently have access. They are likely to be removed from Paramount+ in the coming days.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n    Removing titles from streaming platforms has become a depressing trend over the past few months as conglomerates look to right-size budgets and cut costs. Removing completed seasons allows Showtime and their competitors to take a tax write-down on content as well as shop titles that are owned in-house to third-party buyers as many seek to monetize content that underperformed. HBO Max, for example, removed the big-budget <em>Westworld <\/em>with the hopes of selling it to a third-party ad-supported streamer. That would allow parent company Warner Bros. Discovery to add revenue to a show that bled so many viewers in its fourth season that the creators\u2019 six-season plan was cut short. HBO Max original series <em>Generation <\/em>recently sold to the Fox-backed AVOD service Tubi, bringing further value to the former. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n    The content removal for <em>On Becoming a God in Central Florida<\/em> represents the latest blow to the Kirsten Dunst-led dark comedy. The series was originally developed for AMC and was bought and produced by YouTube. When YouTube bailed on <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">script<\/a>ed originals, Showtime stepped in and aired the first season. Following favorable reviews, Showtime renewed the series for a second season only to reverse course on the pickup and cancel the series due to scheduling challenges stemming from the pandemic. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/  a-font-body-m     \">\n    The fate of season two of <em>Super Pumped<\/em>, meanwhile, remains a question mark at Showtime as the anthology was renewed with a focus on Facebook. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script type=\"text\/plain\" class=\"optanon-category-C0004\">\n!function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\nif (f.fbq) return;\nn = f.fbq = function() {n.callMethod ? n.callMethod.apply(n, arguments) : n.queue.push(arguments);};\nif (!f._fbq) f._fbq = n;\nn.push = n;\nn.loaded = !0;\nn.version = '2.0';\nn.queue = [];\nt = b.createElement(e);\nt.async = !0;\nt.src = v;\ns = b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\ns.parentNode.insertBefore(t, s);\n}(window, document, 'script', 'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\nfbq('init', '352999048212581');\nfbq('track', 'PageView');\n<\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
