Sony takes over distribution of "Wheel of Fortune," "Jeopardy!" from CBS, court rules
CBSN
CBS has lost distribution rights to "Wheel of Fortune" and "Jeopardy!" with a Los Angeles court rejecting the network's bid for a preliminary injunction that would have blocked Sony from taking over.
Sony, which produces the two iconic game shows, filed a complaint In October 2024, alleging that CBS entered into unauthorized licensing agreements. Specifically, the company claimed CBS licensed the shows at below-market rates and failed to maximize advertising revenue, among other alleged contract violations.
After accusing CBS of breaching its contract, Sony in February assumed distribution. In response, CBS sought, and was granted, a restraining order, which allowed the network to retain distribution rights.
