America's 10 Highest-Paid CEOs of 2011 (and How They Earned It)
What Happened When Alex Kenjeev Paid His Student Loan in Cash
Warner Bros., the television-and-movies
subsidiary of Time Warner, is stepping up efforts to cash in on the big-money, low-budget industry of Reality --
reality television, that is. The company
intends to launch a TV production unit, called Warner Horizon Television, to produce even lower budget reality
television programs.
And how does Warner Horizon Television plan to lower the cost of the already pathetically cheap reality television shows?
Well, according to Peter Roth, President of Warner Bros. Television, the studio will limit taping days, shooting locations and "talent" pay. This new production model will reduce costs to about $500,000 less per episode than what a "traditional" (read: watchable) TV show costs per episode.
If you're interested, Warner Horizon, I have a couple of ideas for some very low-budget reality shows:
