this is prime time marketed to children on nickelodeon. it is not always clean just because it's on the colonial. the tv content writing for the stuff is supposed to apply to everything that television network, whether it's cable or broadcast. it is one standard, it should be one standard. the other thing that we advocate for his cable unbundling. let consumers pick and choose which never say want to pay for rather than being forced to pay 200, 500. there's been some argument, when debbie cheaper or more expensive. we think it would be cheaper. anytime consumers have more choice, prices tend to go down. that would also provide a means by which parents can self-directed they don't want coming into their home. >> why do you think that all the g rated programs are off the air ? a big portion of my career working for the tv networks and in hollywood, there is a tremendous -- there is a sense of lending mentality. it were money, i think you would see more family friendly. i think it is more of an ego driven thing on the production level. every

nickelodeon, mtv, b.e.t., comedy central. viacom looks attractive and 3.6 dividend deal on company that generates a lot of cash. i think all the infight something real distraction for the stock. melissa: gary, it is definitely a distraction shun as people watch infighting. are they creating opportunity or distracting from a product falling apart? >> my problem is uncertainty is never good thing in either the markets or corporate america. a lot of people don't know who is actually running the show. sumner redstone i believe is the 3 years old. a lot of people are not sure whether he is making decisions or not -- 93 years old. as long as that continues the stock is dead money and that is all that has been going on. they have unbelievable properties but again, when you're dealing with markets sometimes even disney right now not acting too well. i think just be careful with it here. melissa: gary and john, thanks to both of you. david: we love those guys. meanwhile could the next "star wars" actually flame out? reports claiming t

viacom has comedy central, nickelodeon. it seems the streak doesn't seem to be valuing it correctly. >> that i think the changes would all be positive. i think the stock is too low. i would be a buyer of viacom. that's right. i would be a buyer, not a seller. marcus in oregon. >> caller: it's an honor to speak with you. disney. this thing went down 8.5% and this change. it looks okay to me. >> let's not be captured by the espn short term numbers. let's think about all the unbelievable movies in the pipeline the next five years. disney is an annuity stream. with shanghai disney coming up. i like the situation. >>> someone tells but the hard netflix sell-off, you can say seen it and move on. the story is packed with action and adventure. i think it is worth owning. every time it has gone down, it has come back. much more "mad money" still coming up. time to start shopping for a better deal. can the movie sustain a shaky foundation? and a hump day edition of lightning round. the heirloom tomato. intensely-flavored. colorfully-

i was working on the kids line with nickelodeon.unity to be -- have a cameo in the movie, so it all tied in perfectly. >> should we expect more in terms of fashion and retail? >> well, we'll see how this goes first. one step at a time. >> everybody's trying to figure it out right now. they're trying to figure out whether macy's is going to make a go of it long term and what's happening with all this internept disruption and things. what do you think in. >> i think if people want it, they're going to find it, whether it's in the traditional stores or online. whether they want it, they're going to. >> even foot locker was struggling. maybe people are ordering shoes direct. >> the shoe platform is different. i don't think people are going into stores and buying shoes anymore. i think everything is online, website websites. they have these zbik sneaker cons going on out there. there's a lot of didn't ways you can get sneakers than goer to the brick and mortar stores again. >> do you think people will ever do it again or is it game over?

listen, i work there, and every job i've ever done, the last show i did on nickelodeon, you hire thehe job. i don't care woman, man, kid, old person, it doesn't matter. it's looking for something that isn't there, in my opinion. kennedy: so what is the federal government going to do, kimberly? kimberly: i wish they would just go on vacation forever -- >> sorry. i thought it was about me for a minute. kimberly: nice plug, right? look, they're meddlers, right? it's constant. this is also the aclu and, oh, yes, we're going to help you, they scratch each other's backs all the time, it's exhausting. what happens is really not helping women, is it? i mean, apply for a job. come up with an idea, a script, you know? put it forward and see if somebody's interested in hiring you. you're not helping women by saying that they're incapable to do it on their own. kennedy: no, and i don't think we need the government's involvement. that's certainly beyond the scope of government. but hollywood is supposed to be so touchy-feely and progressive and liberal and inclusive -- harris: i want to yield all

i saw that carolina panthers quarterback cam newton will star in a new nickelodeon show helping kidsve their lifelong dreams. or, almost achieve their lifelong dreams but then blow it when the prre [ audience oohs ] [ laughter and applause ] >> steve: oh, hey. oh. >> jimmy: you know you liked that one. [ laughter ] hey, guys, i saw "the angry birds movie" comes out this weekend. yeah, they're saying the birds in the movie are angry because, mostly because the movie didn't come out two years ago. [ laughter and applause ] >> steve: really? really? [ light laughter ] >> jimmy: check this out. next "star wars" movie currently filming in ireland. you can tell they're filming "star wars" in ireland when darth vader is, "luke, i am your father and her father and his father and his father, too. these children over here, we had a thing."

mtv and nickelodeon, i don't know, to me it just seems this is the last thing they need right now. >> should we be looking at google, facebook, snapchat eventually, controlled companies that could end up in this position in 50 years? >> imagine us sitting here as robots talking about the zuckerberg estate drama or something like that. >> hopefully not. as an investor you got to wonder. >> tell you what, the interesting thing to me is the checkmate move that sumner redstone played on dumond. earlier this year he kicks out his girlfriend, takes her off the will and out of the trust. dumond supports him in that effort. she's arguing mental incapacity. two months later he kicks out dumond, neutering his ability to apply the mental incapacity issue. here's a 93-year-old next week who is basically putting -- >> so you think it's a victory for redstone? >> this guy is wily as the day is long. i bet he planned the whole thing. >> you think he's playing chess here? he has all his faculties and is moving the pieces around? >> that's exactly what he's doing. >> all you have to do, look at where

hbo and showtime are doing great with the original series, and you have not seen that from mtv or nickelodeon or a lot of the stuff that viacom is famous for. >> and i took a twitter poll, and i asked what is the biggest drama, valeant or, the -- thero viacom, and it was that way. >> and we can argue what snowden did what he did, but he performed a public service by raising the debate that we have engage and the changes that we made. and i would say that doing what he did in the way he did it is in inappropriate and illegal. >> and performed a public service, and how is that resonating in the valley to the degree it is being talked about? >> well, it surprised me and a lot of other people. the debate that snowden raised in the valley and the relationship with the government and security is intense. there is an incredible amount of distrust and the animosity of the big tech companies here and the governments, and we see that continuing with the apple encryption debate and the legal battle, and the tensions over the issues in the valley are as high as ever. >> and certainly, mike, not lost on s

these cable issues, the argument there so many channels on box now for kids and there's pbs kids or nickelodeon, many good options of family rated programming. given that so many consumers can pick those shows for the kids, why is it necessary for the broadcast networks to have those type of shows and setting aside the issue of whether shows are properly rated, are the networks going to return to >> met. >> and then they are forced to pay for to be cheaper or more expensive. is sometimes a "the washington post". >> why day think? >> it is just that mental it is more than at that level. but you do that och but not by producing those but something that goes down the anti-hero crime to get off to copy it. is there a push back. >> what is your role with nbc? weather and that nbc is a did a matter with any awards that they want it even with years past. and if they stayed there with a family friend the company didn't want to be explicit they don't want to associate their brand of 1g rated show what they are demanding that for the programming so talk about "breaking bad" which is water cooler talk wit

neil: you have been reduced to dora the explorer on nickelodeon. update us on this. charles: a couple items i want to ring by you. there is still a negotiation between both sides. we should point out there were reports of monsanto rejecting the bid, the $122 share bid that bear put on the table for the company, $60 billion offer, all-cash. this is more in the line of a soft rejection. neil: what does that mean? charles: looking for a sweetener saying we don't want that, we want more stuff and still behind closed doors. later it might be a rejection and we will see what happens but right now apparently the doors are closed, they are still negotiating. during the scope of these negotiations which have gone on a couple weeks, baer has raised the specter of a potential hostile bid if there is a full on rejection. they raised it, they go there in the negotiating tactic, i can't tell you that notion of a hostile bid, this is not hostile, this is a constructive dialogue, it has been raised by bear. neil: you call it bear, charlie brady, our editorial genius says it is by he

tv you have dora, nickelodeon.sets that i think people would like to have and i don't think that you really get a full sense of the value of them without this company, you know, having the potential. we're getting to a place where you have that potential. the question will be better answered near term. about the studio kind of question, that is very interesting right now because viacom said that they wanted to sell a minority stake by the end of june. with this filing, you know, you've got to ask some questions, is that still on track. i think right now the foremost question is that sale price is still on track. i think if they do sell it, they're not going to accept anything that certainly looks cheaper than what dream works got. i think there's real market asset value that could come soon. >> hey, i don't know if i'm like other people looking at this saying how the heck did this happen? >> right. >> you could telegraph this from i don't know how many years away. this is america. this is the greatest capital marke

nickelodeon, we know selling stake in paramount continues and they may put something up in the next feweeks, philippe dauman told us by the end of june with a chinese buyer with some stake that gives effect to large valuation to paramount above what people anticipated. but to your point it's not clear there's a buyer for all of viacom, and i believe shari redstone's approach is to try from her viewpoint to restore its luster. >> okay, thank you, because that's what i'm getting at. i think there are a lot of people feel this is a very undermanaged company and they could do a better job. and that's what i'm saying. i'm not saying there's, wow, i can't wait to get in. i would say this company has been dramatically undermanaged and the management has enriched themselves to a level that i find fascinating. >> from someone who is an experienced content generator, or someone who wants to be, ie apple? >> i'll tell you the apple stuff they can't put a steak in it. it keeps coming up and i don't believe any of it. i think viacom in many ways is a property. if they want -- >> i know. i really bel

those include nickelodeon, mtv, comedy central.ny needs to get back to the roots and rally the content, creation and investment around a couple of core brands. on the film side, the film studio paramount is subscale in terms of the amount of production every year. i think there needs to be an investment process to improve the production or they should sell that business to a scaled player and use the proceeds to reinvest into the network space. >> is there a scenario under which this company could be taken over? >> certainly. >> by whom? who would the buyers be? >> i couldn't speculate. i think that the assets themselves could have value to another player, especially somebody who would like to get larger in the networks business or in the film production business. at this point though, mr. redstone from the comments that came out publicly, he is not even in favor of a sale of a state in paramount. i think as long as does he control the vote, it is unlikely that you'll see this business be slowlying. >> do you think he should contro
