Facebook Willing to Pay Millions Per Episode for Exclusive Scripted and Non-Scripted Series

Facebook is making it known that it wants to step into the arena with likes of Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, and YouTube by letting Hollywood’s top agencies that they’re putting up millions, potentially $3 million per episode, for exclusive access to a star studded TV show.

For sitcoms specifically, they’re thinking about mid-six figures, though it should be noted that they’re aiming for family friendly content, probably because the streaming giants have a big focus on shows for high brow mature audiences.

Any specific projects have yet to be announced, but don’t be surprised to see something in your FB feed soon.

You’ll no longer be able to say that you can’t find where to watch TCGS.

Facebook now has a live broadcast platform as another new feature in the on-going competition with YouTube.

Fusion is taking advantage by having The Chris Gethard Show not only live streaming on Wednesdays and then airing an edited version later on Fusion’s linear TV channel, but also adding a live stream on Facebook. Those tuning into the live stream on Facebook will be able to watch the show from multiple angles as well as interact with the show (a cornerstone principle of TCGS).

The first run of this new platform for TCGS starts this week.
