That's fair enough. Over three years that's less than 7 million so you'd think they recouped that quite quickly. I'm going by David Knox... they're making more than it costs and therefore all is well.Nine payed 20 million to acquire Big Brother, also there's around 300 staff and crew working on Big Brother, so I think Big Brother would be a much more expensive show than TBBT.
If repeats of BBT can pull in the same profit margin and demos or even better then we can assume we'll see that next year and kiss BB and this forum goodbye.
