NEW SHOWS & RETURNING TV SHOW DATES

Timing Matters

For Streaming Video on Demand (SVOD), the date the series releases means it's a wrap, and all shows have completed filming.  But it's the perfect timing to start planning for the next season, which typically will be filming immediately or within a few months.

For Primetime network TV programs on ABC, CBS, CW, FOX or NBC, there are still 15 to 18 shows at least still waiting to film - as shows that are picked up typically get at least a 22 episode order.  So now is a GREAT time to get involved for product placement opportunities.

For cable networks like Showtime or HBO, there are typically 10 to 13 episodes in total.  Depending on the network, the series may be wrapped, with no more product placement options after filming is completed.  So start looking now at the shows that debut down the line to see what you want to have your brand be involved in!


September 2016

Don't forget, September 18 is the Emmy's. Don't miss an opportunity for your brand to get involved with the Primetime Emmy Awards!  Parties and gifting lounges abound!
