US commissioning downturn will leave audiences short of TV in early 2024, says Ampere. But AVoD and FAST are identified as a bright spot for unscripted commissions.

The latest report from Ampere Analysis shows that the rate of TV commissioning in the US dropped significantly in the second half of last year, and continues to remain low in 2023. Low commissioning now will create a future content deficit, with the slowdown likely to start to bite in Q3 2023 and beyond, it said.
