But Is It on Netflix? - Streaming Video Service Thread: Hulu, Amazon Prime, Apple TV+, Disney+, Peacock, YouTube TV, AT+T Watch, Philo, Playstation Vue, HBO Max, HBO Now, Facebook Live and many more

i dunno if you're at the grand game of rock paper scissors yet but that also demolished me

wow that paramount plus lineup is fucking bleak

i, for one, can't wait for my sassy reboot of flashdance with appropriate gender/color reconfigurations

it's like a parody of the "capitalism breeds innovation" memes

All I saw were the words "Beavis and Butt-head" and I started thinking about signing up though...

I'm def signing up for the cheap (with ads) tier. Looks like they'll have tons of stuff, both old & new. And, yes, I'm a sucker for '80s/'90s Paramount/Viacom nostalgia.

I'll even check out the iCarly reboot, lol (the OG actors are back)

lol forks

cannot wait for resultant paste

No Sam though xps

what - really?? she's the reason I liked the show (as an adult waaaaay too old for it). that kid was funny

Re: that horrifying Paramount news, it's finally sinking in that, in the face of infinite content-streaming hours to fill, corporations will increasingly insist that none of their IP ever remain dormant whether viewers want a revival of said IP or not. Here is my list of predictions for MOR reboot shows that nobody wanted or will want (check back in five years and see if any of them have been allowed to RIP): FernGully, Win Lose or Draw, Popples, Jake and the Fatman, Welcome Home Roxy Carmichael, something with Morris the Cat, Bachelor Party, She's the Sheriff, Shields and Yarnell, something with those Fruit of the Loom fruit-suited creeps, Ed (yes, the baseball chimp movie). Are your appetites properly whetted?

If there’s Meredith Baxter-Bierney content I’m in

xp If viewers don't want it, it won't last. Meanwhile they're doing new stuff too.

i'm holding out for small wonder

If viewers don't want it, it won't last.

Everybody in the entire world except for two ppl knew that nobody wanted Quibi, and one of those two didn’t want it either. Katzenberg & Whitman still got to shit $1.75 billion away.

Waiting on the Cosby Show reboot

If they could do it "The Connors" style, maybe

^I would totally watch "Vanessa"

We are rewatching the MCU movies in order, and the Spiderman ones aren't owned by Disney, of course. The only streaming service that has the new Spiderman movies on it is SlingTV. Anyone know the arcane corporate goings-on that led to this?

I think Sling just pulls from other services and cable networks, they don't license content themselves? It must be pulling from someplace else.

Small Wonder reboot? Isn't that just Wandavision.

^I would totally watch "Vanessa"

some variety of this is doomed to happen i'm afraid.

Jake and the Ilx man

xxpost If we wind up going down that road, can we just make it a behind-the-scenes series about the fashion empire of Gordon Gartrelle?

DJI: lol only FuboTV (of all networks) has both Holland films, Starz and DirectTV have the Far From Home as well. weird, but I guess Sony sold the rights to them prior to Disney+

No Incredible Hulk on Disney+ either iirc (which I'm sure people are crying about).

D+ had the first Holland film at one point (I’m pretty sure). IIRC, they made deals w/licensees to get back some of their content for a limited window around launch.

(They only recently got Moana, which is a big deal)

Anyone know the arcane corporate goings-on that led to this?

Spider-Man: Far From Home is streaming/on-demand on Fubo, Starz and DirectTV, rentable on AMC for $6, in print on DVD ($31) and Blu-Ray ($18), and available as a 4K download from Amazon, Fandango, Vudu, Apple TV, Google Play, Youtube, Redbox, DirectTV, AMC and Microsoft for $10, $15, $16, $20 or $31 depending on platform.

Spider-Man: Homecoming is streaming/on-demand on Fubo, FXNow, DirectTV and Spectrum, available for digital rent or purchase (in SD, HD and 4K) on Vudu, Amazon, Fandango, Apple TV, Google Play, Youtube, AMC, Redbox, Microsoft, DirectTV, Google Play, and Microsoft for $2.99, $3.99, $9.99, $12.99, $13.99, $14.99, or $29.99, and in print on DVD for $7.59 and Blu-Ray for $16.

Into The Spider-Verse can be rented and bought on the same platforms for $2.99 to $29.99, and bought on DVD for $11 or Blu for $13.

A box set of the three on Blu-Ray, with bonus digital download, including the bonus features (so probably the 2-hour alternate cut of Spider-Verse) is $33, basically the price of any two of them alone.

I have literally zero knowledge of the arcane goings on, but my inference is that the owners have licensed the films to various retailers, rental outfits, and DVD/Blu labels. In the last case, possibly one that they own.

Finished the first season of Dead to Me. I was lukewarm through most of it, but I liked where it went the last couple of episodes.

It’s good!

Looks like same arguments and stuff (and the gals seem to have aged much “better” than the guys):

Where’s the Road Rules reunion?

I think a lot of those folks appeared in later cycles of Challenge / The Gauntlet and shit like that.

(Season 2 of Road Rules was great – the one with Christian, Devin, Effie, Emily, and Timmy.)

I don't even remember Road Rules before the Challenge era to be honest.

Today I learned that George Wendt is the maternal uncle of Jason Sudekis.

must've inherited his face-punchability from his father's side

re iCarly above and Sam not being in it: "what - really?? she's the reason I liked the show (as an adult waaaaay too old for it). that kid was funny"

"Jennette McCurdy, 'iCarly' star, has quit acting and resents her career"

https://www.cnn.com/2021/03/03/entertainment/jennette-mccurdy-icarly-quit-acting/index.html

sounds like she primarily acted to help her family out and now she's like 'fuck that'

Cool

stop trying to make paramount+ happen

"I ultimately quit after my mom passed away, because with her death kind of died a lot of her ideas for my life, and that was its own journey and a difficult one for sure," McCurdy said.

The whole experience led her to say: "I resent my career in a lot of ways," and left her feeling "so unfulfilled by the roles that I played and felt like it was the most just cheesy, embarrassing" thing.

that is a commendable amount of perspective for someone in her position (or anyone, actually). good for her

Hopefully she'll look back with a different perspective on the role someday (and not feel embarrassed); she was funny and did good work.
