NBCU, YouTube TV Reach Short-Term Deal Extension to Avert Blackout

Google and NBCUniversal have agreed to a short-term extension of their existing carriage deal for YouTube TV. This extension ensures that NBCUniversal’s networks will remain available on the service for the time being.

The announcement comes as the previous agreement between the two companies expired on September 30 at midnight ET. Both parties are now working to finalize the terms of a new long-term contract.

This short-term extension helps avoid any disruption in service for YouTube TV subscribers who enjoy NBCUniversal’s channels. Further updates will be provided as negotiations progress.
