Do you wish to have to listen to the excellent news or unhealthy information first?
John Krasinski has offered his feel-good internet sequence “Some Good News” to ViacomCBS following a large bidding conflict.
“Wow who can believe when we started this thing together we all just wanted good news to be more fully represented in our everyday lives,” Krasinski tweeted following the announcement. ”And now? You rather actually ARE the excellent news! Thanks to you, SGN lives on, becoming a member of the ranks of this ancient information community! See you all quickly!”
In a remark posted to Twitter, CBS stated: “On @johnkrasinski’s very first episode of @somegoodnews, he asked why has there never been a news show dedicated entirely to good news. Well, we at CBS agree and we are proud to welcome SGN to @CBS and the @CBSNews family.”
Krasinski created the YouTube internet sequence all over the coronavirus pandemic to focal point totally on sure and provoking tales, a welcome trade to many in search of an get away from the COVID-19 information cycle and quarantine. In two months on my own, “Some Good News” has garnered over 71 million perspectives and a pair of.57 million subscribers on YouTube.
The actor produced 8 unfastened episodes on YouTube, together with an “Office” reunion, a “Hamilton” efficiency, on-line graduations and a digital promenade with particular visitors.
On the 8th episode previous closing week, Krasinski introduced that “we’re taking a break for now, but there is more to come! Stay tuned.”
The unhealthy information? Krasinski will now not be webhosting new episodes following the purchase, despite the fact that he’ll function an government manufacturer. (A brand new host has now not been named but.)
That information didn’t take a seat neatly with some lovers.
Twitter person @lindseyweber wrote, ”Remember when he created this unfastened really feel nice YouTube display to “make people feel good” and now he’s…………….promoting it for $$$?”
“So he made 8 YouTube videos comprised largely of unpaid contributions from fans, sold the brand to a major conglomerate, and isn’t even going to make it anymore? Just cashed out? Does this rub anyone else the wrong way, kinda?” tweeted @Lons.
