Hopefully, not "The End."

Cordially,

From the article, which you obviously didn't read.

Discovery  would acquire some of Hasbro’s share in the struggling joint venture — but still leave the toymaker with a sizable stake —  and then likely rename it Discovery Family.

So if Hasbro is keeping a stake in the company and FGN is full of Hasbro property-based games, I would venture a guess that until Hasbro sells the rest, it's not going anywhere anytime soon.

Will it sound too "Variety" if I call it Dischubery?

I strongly recommend ALL of the programs mentioned in that comment be immediately cancelled in the hopes that the jackbag will use his newfound free time to learn to spell.

Wonder how many things he broke when GSN rebranded a decade ago and when GAS went off the air
