  Current TV syndication model doomed? » Make You Go Hmm
It will defintely make being on TV shows less financially attractive and demand higher pay from studios, plus cuts in DVD and other distribution revenue, which I’m sure agents are already all over for actors.
The combining of TV and computers is on it’s way to being the next step as we write imho.

  Financial Interest and Syndication Rules   (Site not responding. Last check: )
The Financial Interest and Syndication Rules (Fin-Syn Rules), or more precisely their elimination, may ultimately alter the television and film entertainment landscape as much as any event in the 1990s.
If the networks owned the syndication rights to off-network programs, they might "warehouse" their programs, or steer popular reruns to network owned and operated stations and network affiliates to make those stations stronger in a particular market.
Changes in the Financial Interest and Syndication rules illustrate the significance of communication policy in affecting the daily menu of television choices available to the public.

Syndication differs from selling the show to a television network; once a network picks up a show, it is usually guaranteed to run on all the network's affiliates, on the same day of the week and at the same time (in a given timezone, in countries where this is a concern).
A syndicated program is sold to stations for "cash" (rights are purchased by the stations to insert some or all of the ads at their level); given to stations for access to airtime (wherein the syndicators get the ad revenue); or the combination of both.
As a result, there are several syndicators of programming for the non-profit stations, several of which are descendents of the regional station groups which combined some, not all, of their functions into the creation of PBS in 1969.

 TV syndication's Ray of hope?   (Site not responding. Last check: )
Technology and the changing way people watch TV have sent ratings for such stalwarts as "Jeopardy" and "The Oprah Winfrey Show" down as much as 13 percent over the past year, while efforts to launch new programs have largely failed.
Syndicators -- mostly big media companies such as NBC Universal, Sony Corp. and Walt Disney Co. -- have rolled out a parade of expensive flops in recent years in a bid to augment aging stars such as Regis Philbin, 75, and Maury Povich, 67.
TV critics agree with her -- some not so kindly -- but early ratings for "Rachael Ray" have been strong, the best since "Dr. Phil." On Monday the energetic host descended onto the stage behind the steel gate of a freight elevator and then made herself a cup of coffee.

 Must-download TV - Salon
Television shows are copyrighted, and unless the copyright owner has granted permission, it's as illegal to download a TV show as it is to download a song or a proprietary operating system or a video game.
Even considering the hundreds of channels now on TV, there are only a finite number of slots available, and there are hundreds of thousands of episodes of new and old television programs that might fill those slots.
TV companies choose which shows to play when, and, because you've got no other choice but to watch what's on, you watch -- even if you might not particularly enjoy what's on.

 Lionsgate acquires TV syndication distributor Debmar-Mercury   (Site not responding. Last check: )
VANCOUVER (CP) - Film studio and distributor Lionsgate (TSX:LGF) expanded into television syndication on Wednesday with the acquisition of Debmar-Mercury LLC, a distributor whose programs include South Park.
Lionsgate chief executive officer Jon Feltheimer said the deal gives the company the ability to syndicate its own television programming and movies as well as an opportunity for new revenue for third-party franchise properties.
That compared with a profit of $20.3 million, or 21 cents a share on revenue of $842.6 million.

 Variety.com - Syndie 'Flavor' a reality
Lionsgate-owned TV distributor Debmar-Mercury has bought the domestic syndication and cable rights to the VH1 shows, which together make up 175 half-hour episodes for availability in fall 2007.
A cable network like TBS, A&E or E! Entertainment TV could become so eager to get exclusive dibs on the shows that it buys out the TV-syndication window.
The best scenario for the distributor is a joint window, shared by both TV stations and a cable network, in which each would simultaneously play the episodes five times a week or more.

Hollywood’s nightmare scenario is that high-def TV will become “Napsterized,” with shows available online to anyone, anytime, for free — which may sound, to some TV fans, less like a nightmare than a heavenly dream.
Once an underground activity plagued by hard-to-use tools and shows of less-than-stellar picture quality, the systems for finding and downloading TV are steadily becoming easier to use, and the current watchability of the shows is nothing to scoff at.
TV companies choose which shows to play when, and, because you’ve got no other choice but to watch what’s on, you watch — even if you might not particularly enjoy what’s on.

 Syndication - The TV IV
Syndication is the term for selling old episodes of a program to individual television stations.
After a first run show has lasted long enough and become popular enough (typically airing 100 episodes is the standard), its back catalog will be sold, either to a network affiliate or independent station in every market, or to a cable network.
While the networks generally take most of the profits from first run episodes, syndication is often very lucrative for those involved with the production of the show (Larry David reportedly sold his share of the syndication rights to Seinfeld for $200 million [US]).

 Zap2it - TV news - Sci Fi Cancels 'The Invisible Man'
Although the series benefited from airing on a dual platform, on both the Sci Fi Channel and on various TV stations through syndication, the show became too expensive to support thanks to special effects costs integral to the show's plot, sources tell Variety.
In syndication, where "Invisible" premiered three months after its Sci Fi launch, TV stations will be able to keep running it through August.
In TV syndication, "Invisible" is averaging a modest 1.8 rating, but it's a solid fifth in adults 18-49 and fourth among adults 25-54 among scripted, syndicated first-run action hours.

The current TV syndication landscape, where about a half-dozen major distributors provide programming, is a far different beast from the market that existed under the old financial interest and syndication rules that kept networks out of the distribution game.
People in the syndication business still grieve over the extinction of the "fin-syn" protections 10 years ago, the most common complaint being that the market doesn't generate as much original or creative programming as it did before.
Martin's commission is coming to the West Coast hub of the television business to hear the public voice its opinions on letting big media companies-which already control studios, networks, syndication operations and stations-take over even more of the outlets through which audiences see, hear and read news and entertainment.

 "Madea's" Tyler Perry looks for success in TV syndication by breaking the mold
Nonetheless, taking the syndication route with a half-hour scripted series is a big gamble, given the dearth of original scripted series, drama or comedy, in the first-run syndication marketplace these days.
The lack of uniform time period clearances for shows sold in first-run syndication makes it more difficult to mount national marketing and promotional campaigns for a show, especially in today‘s fragmented television landscape.
Among the last comedies to take a stab at first-run syndication were the 1991-93 revival of "WKRP in Cincinnati" and "Harry and the Hendersons," which ran from 1990-93.
