WB and UPN combine forces


The WB network(frog included)and UPN will be combining assets soon to form one network. Both entities hope that the combined forces of both networks will allow them to step up from steerage and compete with 2nd rate networks such as Fox and CBS. The new network is expected to focus on half hour sitcoms with no premise that focus on an unlikely turn of fortune to fuel the plot of each episode and run Star Trek reruns after prime time. Ricky Lake, People's Court, and reality TV featuring bottom shelf celebrities are expected to fill the daytime slots with episodes of Inside Edition filling the nightly news swing into primetime. A spokesman from UPN had this to say: "It seemed like a natural fit. Combined we've been underestimating black America for over 25 years." In markets where the two currently compete the leftover broadcast system is expected to be converted into a goverment listening station under the authority of Homeland Security.
