I have seen more bad songs make it because of MTV than good ones that haven't.
It's a surreal experience filming promotion with Ryan Seacrest and meeting Top 40 pop artists.
No money has ever been spent on 'Peaky Blinders' in terms of publicity, there's no massive campaign - because it's the BBC you just get the trailers. But what's happened is people have found it for themselves and I think the loyalty is greater when people find than when they're told to watch something.
On the Web you have to sum up what your piece of content is in one link or nobody is going to watch it. That's the same thing I've been hearing from TV executives - is we need a program that you can have on the side of a bus and someone can watch it go by and get what the show is and want to watch it.
Tune in next week, same Stone Cold time, same Stone Cold Channel!
Television remains an incredible tool when it comes to ensure the best promo, but one thing was always clear to me, I didn't want reality stars; I wanted stars.
I let my music do the talking. Ain't no TV show gonna help me. Ain't no hit single gon help me sell no records.
Before every season we take the Bachelor or Bachelorette out for publicity shots and video.
The one thing the blues don't get is the backing and pushing of TV and radio like a lot of this garbage you hears. They choke stuff down people's throat so they got no choice but to listen to it.
Pete Rozelle used television to get the game to the American public by creating the Super Bowl and making it the biggest sporting event in the world.
I think the guys who have been on NXT and got to go to 'RAW' or 'SmackDown' got the full experience. That's what I want.
Trying to get the talk show, looking back on it, we had to beg a lot of station managers to pick up the show because people thought no one would watch it because I'm openly gay.
The entire season, the show had never been aired for more than three weeks. You can't get an audience that way. They would never promo the show for the next week.
I totally understand the promotional aspect of our show and the business end of it. We're putting something out there that we're really proud of. It's not like we're saying, "Hey, come watch our show," because it sucks.
If you liked this broadcast, we hope you'll watch it again tomorrow night and maybe tell your neighbors about it.
