Yes but there is a hidden "bonus". Some series which may have been cancelled may get a continustion purely because the pilots for new ones will not have been produced and seen at the upfronts though those available may be online events.
Quote:
NBCUniversal, CBS and WarnerMedia have all canceled their May events and instead will present some sort of digital versions of their pitches to the ad community. In an unprecedented move, NBCU will also televise their event.
AMC Networks and Fox News have outwardly canceled their presentations, while Comcast’s FreeWheel postponed its event.
And the IAB is recommending all NewFront presenters scrap in-person events for streaming-only presentations. YouTube, Twitter and Roku, among others, are heeding this advice with plans to stream their events.
