's new Show:
Once Upon an Enzyme
, where the
Police Procedural Mainstay
brings reimaginings of classic stories. Sponsored by
The Ultimate Apple Corer

It'll air on the hotly contested time slot of
9pm
, which is sure to bring in the Drama folks together. It costs
$3m
to develop but no upkeep, and the Ad will bring in
$1m
of Seasonal income.
Another chapter closes for another Show. This time, it's
Breath Mints Around the Globe
, still viewable during Reruns.

Choices are getting a little tight on the Shows department…

has decided to Drop and Budget. He's the second to do so, and he chose the money, so that means
RIOT
will get an additional

Felissan
has also decided to Drop and Budget. She's the third to do so, and she opts for the money, which means
FLS
will get
$4m
of extra cash for the next Season.

Which leaves just
TPN
still in the running. There are 10 cards left on the board, so the deadline is set at 60 hours.

Farren
, it's your turn. You're the only one left, so you can perform as many actions as you want before deciding to Drop and Budget. Feel free to post your actions one at a time or all at once, but the deadline stays at 60 hours either way.

You have (expired on 2021-05-03 05:00:00) to finish the Season.

Well then.

I'd be crazy not to take the freebies, so we do that. The one question is with the network card - is it worth spending $5 million for an extra 7 viewers right now? Let's hold off on that until we get a better picture of our financial situation.

Taking the ads brings us to $15 million.

I don't think replacing any of my shows is a good idea. The most replaceable show I have is in the 8pm slot, and none of those shows play nice with 8pm. Plus I'm losing ad revenue - unless I replace with the Baccalaureate, which results in the biggest possible loss of viewers. (Or Person of Disinterest - I could keep ad revenue stable that way, but I'd still be losing more money and viewers this round over what's there now.)

Taking two stars will cost us $4 million if we go for the cheapest two. That drops us to $11 million. D&B adds $2 million, income adds $1 million ... yeah, I don't think I want to spend any more. Need to leave some cash for shows for Season 3.

Land Ads
: Yeti Yachts, Luxury Spacecraft
Sign Stars

Farren
has mapped out his plans; let's resolve them one by one.

First: he's landing all the available Ads:

Yeti Yachts
and

are going to
TPN
's Green Room, with a combined
$2m

Next, two of the Stars:

Soap Opera Star
and
Satirical News Anchor
are now in the Green Room as well, for a cost of
$4m
.

After that, the last Network card:

Network cards
Advertising Push

Use immediately.

Get ⭗3, or pay $5m for ⭗10.

The network gets some
Advertising Push
and gets
⭗3
out of it.

And that's everything, so he decided to Drop and Budget, netting
$2m
for the next Season.

Everyone has now cashed out of the Season. Here's the dropping order:

Coming to
RIOT
, it's
SportsEdges
, where the
Talent Show Winner
brings you the latest and greatest in the world of sports!
The Show costs
$2m
to develop and a further
$3m
of Seasonal upkeep. There's still a slot for an Ad, so the difference could potentially be covered in the future.
With this Show being up, another Show will be relegated to Reruns. Out goes
Very Charismatic Explosions
, with
Krakatoa Instant Coffee
being returned to the bottom of the deck.

Sirius9121
has accumulated 3
Sports
Shows across his library of Shows, which means
RIOT
will be getting ⭗5 and this Ad (chosen out of the top 3 Ads of the deck):

Instead of earning the $1m, RIOT will receive the combined landing bonus of the other two Ads, equalling

V/LA announcementI'm going to be V/LA from
7 May 00:00 to 9 May 23:59
, both UTC. During this time, all timers will be stopped.

I may or may not be able to update the game in this time period, and the V/LA end date could be moved forwards or backwards by at most a day. Feel free to take your turn if you see the player before you has gone, and I'll resolve your turns when I have time or after my V/LA is over. Turns made in this time would still get the +4 hours as usual.

At the end of the period, I'll PM everyone to notify that the game is back up. I'll also add 24 hours to everyone's first deadlines and 12 hours to everyone's time bank to compensate.

Apologies for the inconvenience caused, and thank you for understanding!

My 8PM slot will now run Criminal Mindfulness, starring That Weird-Looking Star, brought to you by PlaqueBlaster Toothpaste.
This marks the end of our VP's role, but they're confident about this new show - after all, they wouldn't have gotten this far in their career if they didn't have such a good nose for TV shows.

Tonight on

,
That Weird-Looking Star
enters the surprisingly zen world of crime investigation in
Criminal Mindfulness
, sponsored by
PlaqueBlaster Toothpaste
.
The Show costs some
$5m
to develop, but luckily the income and upkeep balances out in this case, thanks to the Show being on its preferred time.
Before that, we have to bid farewell to
Celebrity Rhinoplasty
, which is going to Reruns, and the
Network VP
, quitting the Star life and now off doing god-nose-what.

Plenty of opportunities remain:

Cringe
, where the

gets to the bottom of some otherworldly phenomena. Brought to you by
Emergency Trousers Ltd.
!
The Show costs
$5m
to develop and a further
$2m
upkeep, but is offset by the Ad providing
$1m
of income.
As for the Show that was on the 10pm slot,
Chainmail Bikini Warrior
is now off to the Reruns, and the
Failed Mayoral Candidate
, fuelled by their TV gig, tried to run for mayor again. I don't see much hope for them even after the Show…



Better the Devil You Know

Alex and Claire's secret brings one family together and brings another to the brink. Tess and Liz clash over the lie—each with their own family's best interests at heart—while Jodi arrives home with a secret of her own.
