However, I haven't thought of what could happen to Warner and Paramount. But in the 90s, Paramount would've got Time and Warner ends up getting ABC. What does everyone think?

Sony owning Columbia-TriStar, Disney, and MGM/UA? Plus CBS and Simon & Schuster? I'm almost fascinated by that level of consolidation.

So, in your world, Ted Turner runs Universal with New Line, Castle Rock, and Cartoon Network. Where does Hanna-Barbera fall into this? Is it folded into DreamWorks? And that's not going into how Netflix owns Xfinity, which is a whole new can of worms.

By contrast, I think FoxStarz is the most realistic of the three you've laid out. 20th Century Fox buying Starz does make some sense. Also, having them own Lucasfilm and Pixar gives them enough reason to pass on Blue Sky. Curious as to how MyNetworkTV functions as a second broadcast network, though.

Also, Paramount buying Time Magazine and WB owning ABC would be feasible. I personally think ABC could use WB's animation studio to their benefit.

Turner would get MCA in 1996. Then would go on a shopping spree in the 2000s and buys NBC from GE in 2004, along with Dreamworks SKG in 2005. In 2013, Comcast would later buy the company. The company would later merge with Netflix to form Netflix Universal Group.

Sony would get Tristar Pictures (Columbia, Tristar, Disney) in 1989 and would form SPE in 1991. Animax is the successor to Disney Channel in 1998. Finally, the company would acquire AMC Networks in 2018 to plaster the 21stCF acquisition.

Actually, Fox and News Corp get acquired by Liberty Media since they have too many shares in the companies.

Long story short, Columbia got Disney in 1982-84.

them Sony wouldn't buy Columbia, in fact not even Coca-Cola might afford it now. Remember people in the 80's even wanted to put tariff against japan, and the toshiba/norway scandal almost destroyed the special agreements japan has at the time, the congress would block Sony here.

Sony can get Columbia as otl and they were luckier that coca cola and Hollywood helped them, anything else is pushing pausability unless Sony cease to be a japanese company and become an USA One.
