Paramount Global (NASDAQ:PARA) has ended a plan to sell majority stake in BET Media Group, owner of VH1 and BET cable networks.
The company told bidders on Wednesday (Aug. 16) that it ended its sale process as it didn't believe the sale would do much to deliver its balance sheet, according to a Wall Street Journal report (via Seeking Alpha) on Wednesday, which cited people familiar with the matter. Paramount received bids ranging from around $2 billion to $3 billion for the unit.
The latest update comes after the WSJ reported in March that Paramount was exploring the sale of a stake in BET. Bidders are said to have included media mogul and weather channel owner Byron Allen, as well as producer Tyler Perry, and a group that included NBA legend Shaquille O'Neal.
The NY Post reported in June that the potential sale of BET appeared to be in trouble as the likely leading bidder, mogul Allen, was balking at the sale price.

Hasbro is launching a new division called Hasbro Entertainment, which will unify the company’s film, television, animation, and digital media businesses.
Olivier Dumont will serve as president of Hasbro Entertainment, while Zev Foreman and Gabriel Marano will serve as the head of film and head of television, respectively. All three are joining Hasbro Entertainment from Entertainment One (eOne), which Hasbro recently sold to Lionsgate.
“We are thrilled to embark on this new chapter, building upon our rich heritage of storytelling to continue delighting audiences across generations,” Dumont said. “Gabe, Zev, and I look forward to working with the industry’s best creative talent, studios, and distribution platforms to push the envelope with innovative storytelling that will let fans engage with their favorite brands like never before, while also building exciting new worlds and the next wave of Hasbro franchises for a growing audience.”
Dumont most recently served as president of family brands for eOne. In that role, he was responsible for overseeing content creation and distribution for the combined portfolio of Hasbro and eOne’s family brands, driving over $2 billion of annual retail sales. Previously, Dumont held roles in domestic and international children’s entertainment, including heading acquisitions and co-production for a major kids’ network, leading an animation studio, and managing a distribution business.
Foreman and Marano were primarily focused on Hasbro IP projects while at eOne and will continue this work in their new roles directly for Hasbro.
Marano was co-head of scripted development for eOne. He worked on the development of projects like the Dungeons & Dragons series in the works at Paramount+ from Rawson Marshall Thurber and Drew Crevello as well as Netflix’s Power Rangers series from Jonathan Entwistle and Jenny Klein. Previously, Marano served as senior vice president of drama programming and development at Fox Entertainment. In that role, he worked on shows including 9-1-1, 9-1-1: Lone Star, The Gifted, and Lucifer. Earlier in his career, Marano was with A&E Network and Fox Television Studios.
Hasbro is currently developing and producing over two dozen projects based on major IP like Dungeons & Dragons, Transformers, GI JOE, NERF, Play-Doh, Magic: The Gathering, Peppa Pig, and My Little Pony.
“Entertainment is core to Hasbro’s strategy and its mission to entertain and connect generations of fans through the wonder of storytelling and exhilaration of play,” said Tim Kilpin, president of toy licensing and entertainment for Hasbro. “Audiences can count on Hasbro to keep creating compelling and fun entertainment that brings to life our wide array of iconic brands, including Peppa Pig, My Little Pony, and Transformers, reaching audiences through varied platforms in ways that resonate in today’s fast-paced world.”

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge Dimension Shellshock Launches on August 31 Alongside Free Update, Reveals Foot Clan Outlaw Karai as a Playable Character
New Trailer Showcases Anti-Heroine Karai in This Anticipated DLC For One of the Best Modern Beat ‘Em Ups
PARIS (August 16th, 2023) – Publisher Dotemu and developer Tribute Games, under license from Paramount Consumer Products, announced that the upcoming Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge Dimension Shellshock DLC officially hangs ten August 31 on PC, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation consoles, and Xbox One ($7.99 USD). Revealing fan-favorite Karai in an all-new trailer, fans can catch a glimpse of this former Foot Clan member as she charges enemies with lightning-fast moves alongside her four favorite Turtles. Separate from Dimension Shellshock, a second free update will also be released, offering an additional range of color palette options for all main game owners.
Dimension Shellshock brings two new playable fighters to the forefront of the action at launch later this month. Karai joins the razor-sharp Miyamoto Usagi, star of the Usagi Yojimbo comic book series and a fan favorite ally to the Turtles seen in previous cameos across the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles animated series and action figure releases. Karai’s signature snark brings a bite to the fight alongside her deadly skills with her swift ninjutsu strikes. With Karai at your side there’s no stopping the Turtles as they kick, punch and party their way across the various new worlds in Dimension Shellshock’s rift-jumping battles.
The full DLC packs a punch for fans at launch featuring a new Survival game mode, fresh original music from the soundtrack’s composer Tee Lopes, and alternative color schemes for playable fighters. Survival Mode introduces collectible crystals that allow you to jump from dimension to dimension, each with its own unique look and feel.
The Dimension Shellshock DLC and upcoming update follow a previous free December release which added Custom Game options, giving fans extraordinary control over the way they kick shell through 11 mix-and-match modifiers along with retro-themed visual filters and an extra large serving of general refinements.
Nominated at The Game Awards 2022 for Best Action Game and Best Multiplayer, as well as for the DICE Awards’ Outstanding Achievement for an Independent Game category and the BAFTA Games Awards for Family game and Multiplayer categories, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge immediately garnered praise upon release as a shell-kicking return to the classic TMNT universe as depicted in the 1987 cartoon. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge finds the Turtles racing to foil the menacing Shredder’s latest scheme, with the heroes in a half shell battling the infamous villain’s forces throughout an adventure recalling TMNT’s most memorable locales and moments. The Turtles, Master Splinter, April O’Neil and Casey Jones stand as Manhattan’s gnarliest heroes, harnessing unique abilities in a modernized revitalization of the Turtles’ signature agile style of brawling combat playable in local & online co-op by up to six players.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge is developed by Tribute Games and published by Dotemu.

Star Trek: Prodigy creators Kevin and Dan Hageman revealed an extended first look at the second season's premiere episode at STLV this weekend. The sneak peek is available to watch at StarTrek.com.
Commenting on the exclusive clip, the Hagemans shared, "Our talented and dedicated Star Trek: Prodigy team is hard at work on Season 2 and all of us can’t wait for the world to see it. It’s just too good.”
In the clip, the former crew of the U.S.S. Protostar and now warrant Starfleet officers in training — Dal, Rok-Tak, Zero, Jankom Pog, and Murf — are reunited for an internship under the command of Admiral Janeway. They soon meet The Doctor, a dear friend of Janeway, who escorts them to the admiral's new ship. Starfleet has asked Janeway to observe a new wormhole to deem if it poses a threat — the very wormhole they created when they self-destructed the Protostar.
The clip was previewed with a shuttle from the USS Voyager-A (NCC-74656-A) - a "Lamarr-class" starship, named for the late actress and inventor Hedy Lamarr, and a new haircut for Jankom. It was revealed that Star Trek: Prodigy season two has addedVoyager's EMH, aka The Doctor, voiced by Robert Picardo.
The STLV Star Trek: Prodigy STLV panel featured Kevin and Dan Hageman, Aaron J. Waltke, Jen Muro, and Nami Melumad. During the panel, Kevin Hageman sharedthatProdigy's budget is about half of rival animated shows, as he praised the lovely art design and style that director Ben Hibon brings to the show despite that limitation.
Producers are very confident a new home will be found, but there's no official news just yet. The Hagemans revealed there is a 99% chance that Star Trek: Prodigy will find a new home at the top of the STLV panel, thanking the fan effort to save the show and noting Blu-ray sales contributing.

Toca Boca, Spin Master’s award-winning Swedish game development studio that makes digital games from the kid’s perspective, is thrilled to announce a new content partnership under license from Paramount Consumer Products and Nickelodeon which offers kids a ground-breaking way to experience the SpongeBob SquarePants universe. On June 13th, a Toca Boca x SpongeBob SquarePants content partnership will be introduced to Toca Life World’s vibrant community, with the launch of the SpongeBob SquarePants Furniture Pack and Gift Event.
Update (7/23) - The SpongeBob SquarePants gifts will be available until the end of the year (January 1, 2024, to be exact) in the Post Office!
The SpongeBob SquarePants Furniture Pack is filled with home decoration items from SpongeBob SquarePants, Squidward, and Patrick Star for players to mix and match to create their own Bikini Bottom in Toca Life World. The pack includes 87 distinct furniture pieces, along with a variety of decorations, unique wall designs, and versatile floor patterns, providing endless possibilities for imaginative and immersive play.
The time-limited Furniture Pack will be available in the in-app shop beginning June 13. In addition to this, a free Gift Event will run from June 13 to June 18, 2023, that includes surprising outfits, items and pets. All gifts are claimable until August 18, 2023.
Toca Boca is a trailblazer when it comes to user-generated content, with over 2 billion views generated by fans on social media every month. The SpongeBob SquarePants integration presents a unique opportunity for engagement.
“Kids today don’t just want to consume; they want to create. Our content partnership with Paramount Consumer Products and Nickelodeon on these SpongeBob SquarePants integrations empowers kids to take control of the narrative by giving them tools to design their very own Bikini bottom, fuelled by humor and free from limitations and rules,” says Alexandra Svärdh, Senior Brand Manager at Toca Boca.
Mathilda Engman, Head of Product at Toca Boca, adds, “This content truly embodies the essence of both brands – giving kids a unique opportunity to blend SpongeBob’s humor with the playful world of Toca Boca.”
The campaign concept, “Bikini Bottom like you’ve never seen it before”, embraces the over-the-top optimism and outrageous humor that both Toca Boca and SpongeBob SquarePants audiences love. The content encourages kids to mix and match elements from the SpongeBob universe, creating and sharing their unique stories.
"Finally, within digital games, total revenue increased slightly over 2022, driven by higher in app purchases in Toca Life World. This is the first year-over-year quarterly increase we've seen in digital games since Q2 of last year. This was driven by new content releases, including the launch of our second license theme pack, the SpongeBob and higher engagement with monthly active users up 3% year-over-year to 58 million. We now have 76 million monthly active users across the Toca Boca ecosystem. We think the fan community within Toca will be super excited with Toca Days our first 3D player multi-game, which is currently in soft launch.
Toka Days will allow the opportunity for open ended play and creativity coupled with the ability for social interactions between players. Players sentiment so far has been high. Based on the initial feedback and learnings, the team is making continuous improvements to ready for a full go live in 2024."
