NEW YORK, March 7, 2014 – NBCUniversal today announced that, for the first time ever, its entire portfolio of entertainment networks will give their 2014 Upfront presentations during the traditional Upfront week in May. This year, NBCUniversal will surround the “Broadcast Upfront week” which will begin with the NBC Entertainment network presentation on Monday, May 12, at the Javits Center in New York City; followed by a presentation from Telemundo Media at Jazz at Lincoln Center’s Frederick P. Rose Hall, Time Warner Center in New York City on Tuesday, May 13; and, closing out the week with a unique presentation on Thursday, May 15 by NBCUniversal’s Cable Entertainment Group at the Javits Center. NBCUniversal’s Cable Entertainment Group will combine its entire family of networks into one presentation on Thursday. Historically, each network held individual presentations to advertising partners throughout the February to May pre-Upfront period.
“Upfront Week with NBCUniversal” will feature a collection of new programming and talent across NBCUniversal’s vast portfolio including two broadcast networks, a variety of its digital platforms and its cable entertainment networks including Bravo, E!, Esquire Network, Oxygen, Sprout, Syfy, and USA Network.
“Showcasing our entire portfolio to our advertising partners all at once is in response to marketplace demand and a natural next step in the evolution of the NBCUniversal portfolio coming together as one,” said Linda Yaccarino, President, Advertising Sales, NBCUniversal. “In a world of fragmentation, aggregation and scale means everything for our clients. Our wide-ranging portfolio of content and unequalled targeting capabilities enable us to creatively bring together advertising opportunities to meet our clients’ needs uniquely and better than any other media company.”
Bringing together NBCUniversal’s broadcast, cable and digital entertainment properties during one Upfront week creates a comprehensive experience that advertisers are looking for. NBCUniversal television networks reach 1 in 3 adults daily, and their combined digital properties reach approximately 125 million unique users each month. Led by Telemundo, NBCUniversal’s reach in the Hispanic market is unmatched, reaching 89% of the U.S. Hispanic market across both languages. The NBCUniversal portfolio also reaches 93% of women in America on a monthly basis and is the only media company that reaches 93% of all Americans every month.
With its combination of ratings, linear and digital assets, content and distribution platforms, NBCUniversal is the most powerful, game-changing media company in the marketplace.

    • I know Passions used this trope with Ethan and Sam to drag out the paternity, but GH seems to speed through certain stories while dragging others.
    • For any other soap, I think I’d agree, but GH, I don’t know

    • Agreed, that there was some strange choices in the episode, especially at the end, but overall, that was some great drama that opens up the potential for so much future storyline. Kat vs. Eva having the most potential, especially over Tomas. I have mixed feelings about Martin/BC though. I thought he did pretty well in scenes with Smitty/MM, but the scenes of him confronting Leslie and of him throwing the books were bad lol she acted circles around him.  It’s similar to what Harding Lemay said about George Reinholt at AW; he could be brilliant in one scene, but then mediocre in the next. 
    • I know some of y'all really like Brooke Kerr, and so I've tried to give her a shot, despite her frequent flat line readings and distracted "did I leave the front door unlocked?" facial expressions. But lord, she is so bad at playing a tough-talking badass that I was actually rooting for Brad today to spill the beans to Drew. 
    • Googling does tend to ruin it.  For those of us who were teens in the late 1970s and early 1980s, you can't imagine how much fun it was to watch the show in the afternoons.  (It came on right after school.)  There weren't any "spoilers" at the time.  We would always try to anticipate how each crime and each mystery would be resolved, and we were ALWAYS wrong, because the stories are filled with so many weird twists and turns.   The head writer (Henry Slesar) and his dialogue writer (Steve Lehrman) invariably toss genuine clues directly into your face in the most unlikely ways, but then they provide a host of "red herrings" to completely confuse you and send you off on the wrong path.  Once the story reaches its conclusion, all you can think is Why didn't I figure that out weeks ago?  lol
    • Does the vault have the original scene and not the short flashback?
    • I appreciate that you are using AI with the knowledge of it's limitations. Some posters take everything it produces as fact.
    • And of course Mama Ru herself appeared on All My Children.
    • The Saturday 8pm slot usually had the lowest rating of the NBC 4 sitcom lineup for some reason. NBC let Saturday night fizzle, They used 9.30 pm to launch 227 and Amen, both of which moved to earlier in the evening but they  kept Empty Nest following GG for several seasons.  Empty Nest should have moved to 8pm with their strongest new sitcom at 9.30, anticipating that GG would eventually falter. Instead they left them there and stretching the sitcom pool too thinly on other nights. When Grand talk over at 9.30 Thurs maybe Night Court and Wings could have been used on Saturday.
