The cable channel TBS has agreed to acquire reruns of the CBS comedy "Two Broke Girls," which was the most-watched new comedy series of the 2011-12 season, at a price tag industry insiders said is between $1.5 million and $1.7 million per episode — believed to be the most paid ever for reruns of a comedy by a cable network.
"Two Broke Girls," about two Brooklyn diner waitresses struggling to save money to open a cupcake shop, is known for its raunchy humor and sexual innuendo. It was a hit for CBS in its first season. Despite the early success of "Two Broke Girls," it is unusual for reruns of a show to be sold after only one season on the air. If the comedy starring Kat Dennings and Beth Behrs endures a sophomore slump, TBS could end up with buyer’s regret. Reruns of "Two Broke Girls" will appear on TBS starting in 2015.

FX announced Tuesday that it will host exclusive syndication of the Mark Roberts-created sitcom starting in September 2014. The show went for a $750,000 an episode, far less than Warner Bros.' other show that recently sold to TBS, 2 Broke Girls, which went for a record-breaking $1.7 million per episode. Also went for far less than Chuck Lorre's other two record-breaking syndication hits, Men and The Big Bang Theory. Mike & Molly, which was the most-watched new series of the 2010-11 season, joins fellow CBS comedies How I Met Your Mother and Two and a Half Men in FX's syndication portfolio.
