Kyle XY Series Finale (Spoilers)

Disney wanted to change the name of the network to The XYZ. The only reason they did not was the fact that the original sales contract between Fox and CBN has a clause requiring that "Family" always be in the name of the network no matter who owned it.
I'm not particularly sure what the consequences of violating that provision of the contract would be, but Disney didn't want to face them (probably, ownership would revert back to CBN). They want to drop "Family" so bad it hurts, but they can't. It's almost funny.

Just finished the finale. I'd taken a break half-way through the season because I just wasn't enjoying it. But, I finally got around to catching up.

I feel largely "meh" about it. I still had some fun watching though, even if part of the fun was just laughing at how silly things were sometimes.

Then they should have make new contracts. They should worked for free, paid for the equipment out of their own pockets, and given the episodes to ABC if they had to. There is such a thing as artistic integrity and it should trump blind profiteering.

Now that is some bold, blind idealism. I mean, that'd look fantastic on a bumper sticker, but the real world is nothing like that.

This is as close as we'll get, because television actually costs money. Fortunately just talking is relatively free: http://community.abcfamily.go.com/b...e-plec-answers-questions-about-kyle-xy-finale
