You may have noticed a lot of big finales, new streaming seasons, or special TV events in the latter half of this month. The reason? Emmy eligibility for this year's awards ends June 1, so all the networks are making one final push with their best stuff.

Michael Schneider joins us from New York, where he's attending the annual ritual of the broadcast TV upfronts. This is when network by network, the broadcasters unveil their upcoming schedules and do a song and dance for advertisers. This year feels different, for a couple of reasons. 

Whether it's Pluto TV, Xumo, or Tubi--there's been a proliferation of options in the AVOD space recently--that's advertisement-supported video on demand.

Whether you subscribe to skinny bundles that include live TV, or more traditional streaming video on demand services, you may have noticed your monthly subscription prices going up recently. And as even more services come online in the coming months, it's a trend that's likely to continue. 

We're finally learning details about the streaming service Disney+, like when it will be available, how much it will cost, and the kind of content it will offer. 

The first episode of the final season of 'Game of Thrones' premieres Sunday night. The massive cable hit has defined dramatic television for the better part of the last decade. What happens when it ends?

Steven Spielberg, Reese Witherspoon and even Oprah were on hand for Apple's big event in Cupertino on Monday. All have TV projects rolling out with the tech giant sometime in the future--but exactly when and how much will they cost? We're still waiting to hear.
