I know you're being cheeky, but NBC owns "Friends" and "The Office". Those two series alone account for a large number of streaming hours in Netflix.


Fair point, but both those shows initially found popularity before the streaming era. Is NBC still capable of producing content that people will binge-watch 10-20 years later for a nostalgia kick?


SNL is still fairly popular, as are Brooklyn Nine-nine, Late Night, The Tonight Show, etc. And 30 Rock and Parks and Recreation wrapped up not that long ago.

They also do have a major ace up their sleeve as the official American broadcaster of the Olympics.


Do people binge-watch Late Night or Tonight Show episodes from 15 yrs ago? Or even SNL besides individual sketches?
