'Chad' Moves to Roku Channel

[Mark Jeffries]

The TBS cringe-com starring very much female Nasim Pedrad as the teenage boy title character was on the eve of starting its second season when the WarnerMedia/Discovery merger went through and Daddy Zaslav started making the many cuts he has made, including ending original scripted programming on the former Turner channels--the streaming box's programming division has picked up the two seasons from Warners and will stream both of them, although no indication if they will fund a third season:

BTW, the Roku Channel is not a "channel" per se--its original programming (including the library of the bomb streamer Quibi) is VOD, for the most part.  The linear programming is similar to other free streamers.
