On the original programming front, Apple this summer reached a licensing deal with CBS for a 16-episode TV series based on the “Carpool Karaoke” segment of “The Late Late Show with James Corden,” which will be distributed exclusively on the Apple Music subscription service worldwide. Corden’s “Carpool Karaoke,” in which guests like Michelle Obama and Britney Spears sing along with him in a car, has been a hit on YouTube — and Apple sees a natural fit for the franchise with its streaming-music play. – Todd Spangler, Variety http://ift.tt/2eDPmLQ
