SYNDICATION;  What does it mean when a TV show goes into syndication?

AI Overview

When a TV show goes into syndication, it means the rights to air the show are sold to multiple television stations, allowing reruns or new episodes to be broadcast on channels beyond the original network or streaming service. 

Here’s a more detailed explanation:
  • What it is:

    Syndication is a way for a production company or a syndication company to distribute TV shows to different TV stations, rather than broadcasting them only on a single network. 

  • How it works:

    The production company or syndicator leases the rights to TV stations regionally, across the United States, or nationally. 

  • Types of Syndication:
    • First-run syndication: Shows are produced specifically for syndication and are not tied to a particular network. 
    • Off-network syndication: Shows that were originally aired on a network are sold for reruns on other networks or stations. 
  • Syndication Revenue:

    Syndication can be a lucrative revenue stream for television shows, especially successful ones with a large fan base and enduring popularity. 

  • Examples:

    Shows like “Wheel of Fortune” and “Jeopardy!” are examples of first-run syndicated shows, while reruns of shows like “Friends” or “NCIS” are examples of off-network syndicated shows.
