Spectrum Originals has a nine-month exclusivity on its original shows like L.A.'s Finest and Mad About You before Sony TV is able to shop them to other platforms. Jeff Frost, president of Sony Pictures Television Studios, says talks with Fox about acquiring L.A.'s Finest actually began before the pandemic, but the network was more interested in its original slate at the time. Talks, however, began to ramp up weeks into the coronavirus shutdown. What about Mad About You on network TV? “Absolutely,” says Frost. “There are all kinds of conversations ongoing in connection with that. Since it aired later, that window hasn’t opened up yet, but it’s definitely in the discussion stage.”
