HistoryOn July 12, 2006, Lions Gate Entertainment acquired Debmar-Mercury as part of its expansion into television distribution.[1][2] In November 2006, the company was awarded the syndication rights to Family Feud starting in the 2007-2008 season, and industry rumors suggested that the company could also syndicate some classic Goodson-Todman shows.[3] On January 11, 2007, 20th Television picked up ad-sales for select Debmar-Mercury series in syndication.[4][5] "10-90" modelDebmar-Mercury is known for pioneering a unique syndication model, known as the "10-90" approach, where the syndicator sells the program to a cable station for a 10-episode test run. If those 10 episodes achieve acceptable ratings, the show would be renewed for an additional 90 episodes. This allows the show to have a profitable life in off-network syndication, in which 100 episodes is considered the desired number for a show to begin entering daily reruns.[6] This unique broadcast syndication model for television was used with the TBS and OWN cable television networks for multiple sitcoms created by the multihyphenate Tyler Perry,[7] and for multiple series with the FX cable television network, featuring the likes of actors Charlie Sheen[8] and Kelsey Grammer and comedians Martin Lawrence and George Lopez.[9] Three shows have thus far failed to reach the ratings threshold for a 90-episode renewal, namely Comedy Central's 2010 series Big Lake,[10] which was produced by Funny or Die co-creators Will Ferrell and Adam McKay,[11] and the 2014 FX sitcoms Saint George and Partners.
