Facebook is getting more cat videos — from Instagram-famous feline Nala the Cat — and an interactive, reality TV-style wedding show from television personality Tamera Mowry-Housley.
The two shows embody the kind of programming that has been most popular on the still-nascent Watch platform: viral videos and personality-driven lifestyle series. “The Nala Show” debuts Friday, April 27, and “Help Us Get Married!” hosted by Mowry-Housley premieres May 3.
Facebook hasn’t disclosed metrics for Watch, but CEO Mark Zuckerberg this week said data indicates the strategy is working. “I’d say it’s still pretty early overall in terms of the growth of [Watch], but it’s clearly an area that’s important, where I think we have something unique that we’re going to bring to make this successful,” he said on the company’s Q1 earnings call Wednesday.

In this excerpt from their new book Come Together: The Business Wisdom of the Beatles, authors Richard Courtney and George Cassidy discuss how Paul did what every good leader tries do with a failing enterprise, change the strategy to save the business.
When the company begins a downward spiral, someone must take control. That person must have the best interests of the company as top priority, and the welfare of the members as a secondary focus. However, there are limits to what that person can accomplish if he attempts to manufacture a return to the good old days, especially from the top down. Esprit de corps must come from shared goals, and new circumstances call for new ways of working--and new ways of leading.
In Liverpool, as Badfinger's Joey Molland has noted, the band had always been the thing: a unit, inseparable. But by January 1969, Paul could see the Beatles slipping away.
