Programming exec Blaney was behind one of the biggest movie deals of the year – USA’s licensing of Universal Pictures hits including “Bridesmaids,” “Fast Five,” “Little Fockers” and more than 30 others. In addition, the films will have the opportunity to run across other NBCU platforms, and networks.
