NBC Completes Bravo Transaction

[Steve Mehs]

NBC completed its acquisition of Bravo from Cablevision. The transaction, valued at $1.25 billion, was announced last month. The proceeds were divided between Cablevision and Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, which owned 80 percent and 20 percent of Bravo. Under terms of the transaction, NBC exchanged 53.2 million shares of Cablevision Class A common stock, valued at $672 million, which were held by NBC on a fully converted basis.

How about "BravoNBC" or "NBC Bravo".... for rerunning those series that we cancancelled after one episode.

Would be nice to run repeats of The West Wing, especially when they tend to run Best Of repeats instead of this season repeats during the summer.
