Doesn’t sound like Disney is backing down in the carriage dispute that has left its channels dark on YouTube TV. On an earnings call Thursday, CEO Bob Iger told analysts, “The deal that we have proposed is equal to or better than what other large distributors have already agreed to. So, we’re not trying to really break any new ground. And while we’ve been working wirelessly to close this deal and restore our channels to the platform, it’s also imperative that we make sure that it reflects the value that we deliver.” Or, as Disney CFO Hugh Johnston said earlier on CNBC, “We’re ready to go as long as they want to.”

The launch of a new ESPN direct-to-consumer streaming service in August was a big win, Bob Iger told analysts during the aforementioned earnings call. Among new sign-ups, 80% have chosen a bundle that includes Disney+ and Hulu, which is “a very positive sign for us in terms of lowering churn for us in the future,” he noted, adding, “In almost every way you look at it, it is working…It is also working for advertisers, because, obviously, there’s real value in the data that we provide advertisers on the director consumer platform. And so we’re attracting both more advertising and new advertisers to the service.”

“Poker Face” has not been renewed by Peacock for a third season, and Natasha Lyonne is leaving her starring role – but that doesn’t mean it’s curtains for Charlie, human lie detector. Series creator Rian Johnson has plans. “We’ve been germinating this next move together since writing the season two finale,” said a statement from Johnson and Lyonne, who remains as executive producer. “We love our ‘Poker Face’ and this is the perfect way to keep it rolling. Give us a beat and we may just see Charlie Cale again down that open highway.” Replacing Lyonne as Charlie? Peter Dinklage.
