only company that might take it is netflix
I don't think this "fits" any other streamer like that
if the rumors were true about this being a prequel to the animated series then I wasn't interested anyway

Only way I could see Netflix considering taking it is if WB/Discovery would allow them to sell toys and other merchandise from that particular show or else there's no use in taking it on.

Considering House of the Dragon is now already the most watched show on TV... that really a bad idea?

Couldn't care less about these recent shows cancelled nor HoTD, but if the viewership stays consistent, then it makes sense. I'm not fully invested in the show, but there's millions more who are.

People weren't watching the majority of these shows/reruns to justify the cost of keeping them on the service anyways, so I don't necessarily get the fake outrage.

The outrage is real. I’m not paying a monthly fee to see 90 day fiancé quality of tv. Reality shows only work on cable because it’s essentially free. None of them shows are must watch. And I ain’t paying to watch them.

They are going to realize that the majority of the people who pay for these services want good scripted shows and not fast food tv. Yea I’m pissed

I can see why they’re shelving these projects because reality TV is just cheap as hell to produce. If they're not making money from the toy sales of these animated projects, it's essentially a loss, no matter how critically acclaimed they are. Now is it a good idea from a PR standpoint? Absolutely not.

This is true.

nikkas would argue with me for years when I said Young Justice got canceled because its toyline bombed, but without a toyline to help offset the budget seasons three and four were nothing but people narrating over PowerPoints.

And the show got canceled again.

if they don't care about any of that content then i have to question what content they'd want... there was something for everyone. All genres.

Nope didn’t see it. All I ever see is them canceling shows that I was already invested or interested in.

Did they have anything good from DC?

They announced Titans and Doom Patrol new seasons on that trailer but matt reeves also just signed an extension to produce more DC content as well. They are supposed to announce full DC plans soon.

Ehh. Doom patrol is garbage. And I here this past season of titans was as well. The good dc content has always been their animation

Everything in that trailer was started by the previous regime.

That’s part of why all the articles are questioning WBD. We are seeing a lot of HBO mainstays cutting but not much building.

We’re only seeing stuff that was so far into production a notification of termination was called for. They probably killed a bunch of projects that were so early in production it barely registered that it was cut.

Caped Crusader is already receiving intense interest from Apple, Hulu and Netflix, among others, our sources tell us. Incoming calls are always a good thing in this business.

Hulu is Disney.

Apple‘s subscriber base is so small I doubt they would pay what it’s worth


Netflix is the only one worth the license fee.
