CBS Probably High Fiving Right Now - Adam Available To Other Networks

Ok, probably Adam pissed off some high-up executive at ABC following the AMA's for whatever lame reason, and the exec is making bad decisions right now out of anger/spite you name it. And yeah, I had requested tickets online to go see Adam on Jimmy Kimmel, and so was dissapointed to hear that was not going to happen.

So Adam just tweeted - Let's focus on the positives: Well, I for one agree, and here is why.

1.) Adam is now available to the other networks who want to compete for the guy that the paparazzi is going nuts over, and following everywhere. In short where all the buzz is at. As in the title - CBS must be jumping for joy right now. Remember they cleared the decks right after the AMA's to have Adam on.

2.) The other networks are getting a two-for. Not only is Adam available, but with ABC canceling Adam, they've stirred up yet more controversy for him, and so offering even more free publicity and reasons to watch Adam!! Who do you think typical non-conformist teens want to see more of right now? Those safe picks that ABC will put on now or the guy that ABC is telling you not to watch - ( Whatever you do - don't press the red button)

3.) Money talks, and even though Adam's first week sales were a little under the prediction curve,  he still sold close to 200K albums in the first week. That's 2 1/2 times Kris sales with his album. Who do you think networks who are thinking clearly want to bet on?

4.) ABC has got a weak bluff in poker terminology. Barbara Walters was adamant that she believed her network was making a huge mistake in canceling Adam on GMA. So what next. Is ABC going to inform Barbara she can not have Adam on her 10 Most Fascinating People for 2009? ABC vs Barbara Walters - I don't think so. So in the end Adam will be on ABC by proxy anyway, and in the meantime, they have only served to prop up Adam's notoriety even more.

5.) Let's not forget what happened at the AMA's. Out of all these big name artists - many with their own controversy and such (Like Lady Gaga, Eminem, Janet Jackson, Whitney Houston, blah blah blah) - who was everyone talking about afterwards? Now only Adam could have accomplished that feat.

I think overall Adam is a superstar and by trying to hold him back right now - ABC is making themselves look rather small with their childish ill-informed decisions, and are going to have the opposite effect. They are currently turning Adam into an even greater superstar. Just check out how many new twitter followers Adam has gotten since the AMA's.

So yeah, let's look at all the positives right now because in the long run there is a lot to look forward to regarding Adam. We're talking a whole lake of lemonade out of lemons here :-)
