Amid the upheaval at Netflix, an analysis of executive movement reveals you’re much more likely to get fired faster at a streaming service than a traditional studio. Via @StephenFollows. ⬇️⬇️ puck.news/why-streaming-jobs…

At some point the genre of "video essay" shifted from "interesting 30-minute video I can watch on my lunch break" to "some guy retelling the plot of an entire show for 8 hours".
The worst thing about getting into yt video essays is slowly realising that all the best video essayists have already retired.

After a couple years of major progress, creators of color are seeing “real regression,” the president of the TV Academy tells THR. When #Emmyssowhite began trending after white actors swept the lead and supporting acting categories during the Sept. 14 ceremony, it unearthed a reality deeper than the demand for equal acclaim: Actors of color can’t win accolades for roles that don’t exist. “The Emmys ultimately reflect the work that makes it to our screens, and this year’s results are another reminder that progress is not linear,” Television Academy chair Cris Abrego says in a statement to The Hollywood Reporter. “We have seen meaningful gains in representation across our industry, but we have also seen real regression, and we cannot take progress for granted.” hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-…

Skydance’s David Ellison and Ynon Kreiz have sent a memo to employees about the merged Paramount-Warner Bros., acknowledging that layoffs will be part of the process: • “Integrating two companies will bring change, including difficult decisions that affect our workforce. We are committed to handling this process thoughtfully and respectfully.” • Paramount execs have said they are targeting more than $6B in annualized cost savings over three years, with some of those savings coming from layoffs. • The merger could result in the loss of some 4,500 film and TV jobs in L.A. alone over three years, per a Los Angeles County report. variety.com/2026/film/news/s…
