Pearlena Igbokwe Oversees NBC Entertainment Amid NBCUniversal Restructure

NBCUniversal has announced a major reorganization of its television business, consolidating its operations under a new unit called the Universal Television Entertainment Group. Pearlena Igbokwe has been elevated to chairman of this group, overseeing NBC Entertainment, Universal Television, and Peacock's scripted content. Frances Berwick will return to lead Bravo and unscripted programming at Peacock, while Liz Jenkins and Jenny Storms have received promotions to chief business officer and chief marketing officer respectively. This restructuring aims to enhance collaboration and streamline decision-making across its diverse entertainment portfolio amid Comcast's plans to spin off most of its cable networks. As part of this move, key executive roles have been expanded to strengthen content strategy and distribution efforts. The changes reflect NBCUniversal's commitment to adapt to the evolving media landscape and drive growth in the industry.
