The Networks Bundle

Shows need Stars and Ads. Stars give you bonus viewers (points), and Ads give you extra money. You’ll need everything you can get; you'll have a small amount of resources and time, and you must grab the latest hot show before your opponents.

And some Stars will give their best effort only if you put them on in the proper conditions. For example, some Stars only want to be put on dramas. Other Stars want to be the only Star on the show. And your Ads will give you the most money only if you put them on in the correct time slot.

Finally, Shows age and viewers lose interest, so you have to keep your line-up fresh by canceling shows and sending them into reruns. Fortunately, you can get viewers from your reruns, and you'll get bonuses if you get a lot of shows of the same genre throughout the game.

If you need a special push, Network Cards can give you special powers — but will a Network Card be better than another action? You'll have to make that call.

The player with the most viewers after five seasons wins!

The Networks: Executives, a full expansion for The Networks, changes the gameplay in a few way. New Network Executive at start of game, new deck of Show Cards,, starting "Pilot Season" and new Mogul Card.

The Netwokrs: More Executives - a mini-expansion for The Networks, to be played with the Networks: Executives expansion. These are two additional Executives: Continuum, who has a time machine and can take extra turns (but causes anomalies in the process), and Gorilla, who can choose to go last every turn (getting extra money) or first every turn (sacrificing any money or viewers they get when they Drop and Budget). This mini-expansion also includes new Pilot Season cards that re-introduce some of the beloved Shows, Stars, and Ads from the base game.
