So we’d have a vibrant industry like New Zealand? Government can’t fund television alone. ---

Some good ideas there but so much more money thrown at productions than Australia can provide to compete. Just have a look at the story I posted above about “Pine Gap”. Well why not have the same regulations fir streaming that you do for television? Screen Australia will fund it but if streaming services funded too, you will get better quality productions. Just letting our industry die and funnel all our funds overseas is not the way to go. ---

So producing crap content is ok as long as it supports a local industry? Resolve some of the funding issues (like the arbitrary cap on drama episodes that has seen a lot of modern drama end prematurely and encourage svod providers to invest in joint projects with local broadcasters (who retain local rights and Netflix get distribution rights for ROW) ---

More like “takes over” the role, rather than “replaces” the actress. They’re moving ahead in time so most (if not all) of the cast has changed. ---

But if you read that article it says in it : > “We’ve reached out to Foxtel to ask if they still hold the “first-run” rights to AD, and will update this article accordingly (probably with the voice of Ron Howard’s narrator, saying, as a sardonic aside, “they did” or “they didn’t”.)” So is it actually confirmed that Foxtel has it ? No article actually confirms it … just bases it on the fact they used to have it years ago… Could it end up like say Orange Is The New Black … on both services? ---

So, we want to shine a light on these important aspects. > > When you see the “Netflix Recommended TV” logo, it means that device has passed rigorous testing to ensure great performance and easy access to Netflix and other services. This means the TV: > •Starts up instantly and gets to Netflix (or other internet TV services) within just a few seconds. > •Allows users to move quickly and easily between apps > •Comes with the latest version of Netflix > •Can support newer, more immersive Netflix browsing experiences, like [video previews](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jH2Td_JbCyw) > > In order to receive the designation, the TV must meet 5 out of 7 criteria (listed [here](https://devices.netflix.com/en/recommendedtv/2018/)). > > What’s more, all of the models designated include a Netflix button on the remote control which means viewers can start watching instantly with the press of a single button.
