Sky TV is suing over syndycated broadcast rights to The Cosby Show, which was purchased by Hello Games for ( an understandably ) low price, which undercuts the deal Sky currently has with NBC/Bill Cosby. I said currently because Sky claims they STILL have a year left on their contract. The other issues are a clause that Sky has that A: Gives them matching rights, and more importanly B: First crack at the contract when it expires.

 

Wait what lol where is sky tv mentioned in the OP? I had no idea they had a prior suit, and from a cable provider no less.

Where have you hear this from? Why on earth would Hello Games purchase the Cosby Show?

It seems that this information caught you off guard as well. First I'm hearing of it
