Netflix

Arrested Development seasons 1-3 is a huge loss. Fuck you FOX.

Netflix made a wise move a couple of years back by investing in original programming.

All TV shows, many of which arenā€™t on the Australian Netflix anyway. Not to mention the article doesnā€™t confirm that theyā€™re actually leaving, just that they havenā€™t been renewed as yet and shows from one network have previously had all been renewed at once.

Presumably TV Addictā€™s 455 titles consist of individual television episodes.

I am referring to Aussie Netflix. Seems I forgot a source before whoops ā€¦

Stuff leaving is here, movies and tv shows. Yes they have been here 2 years so expiring. Doctor Who is only going to be on Stan !

What shows on Netflix in Australia are Fox ? I didnā€™t think there were that many.

Netflix has said previously they plan for the catalogue to be 50 percent licensed content 50 percent original .

Here is another interesting link:

Netflix are in my opinion really struggling. They have a lack of cinema-released movies, over 70% of these are over ten years old, and by looking at that list and not replacing them with quality product, they are literally shooting themselves in the foot. They will struggle against Stan and Foxtel Play both of which are a superior product. Luckily I have just started watching the new-to-Netflix Bates Motel (only three of five seasons), after that itā€™s bye bye Netflix. I havenā€™t seen much movies on it as they are too old. Netflix should listen to their customers.

Estimated subscriber figures, particularly against the competitors you have listed, probably suggest otherwiseā€¦

13 Reasons Why: Censors make new RP18 rating for controversial Netflix show

New Zealand censors have created a new rating for Netflix show 13 Reasons Why that allows teens to watch the controversial show provided they have parental guidance.

American drama 13 Reasons Why deals with the suicide of a teen and also depicts sexual assault.

It has been criticised for showing the method by which a character kills herself - a practice strongly discouraged by mental health organisations because it can encourage copycat behaviour. Some aspects of the show have been praised, however, including positive messaging around consent and sexual violence, and the way it raises awareness of youth mental health.

I watched the show a few weeks ago and it was incredibly confronting and emotional! Iā€™m not convinced they should have shown what they did.

Article also says other unnamed series have been stolen.

In the ransom note, the hacker claims also to have stolen series from other studios by breaching a single company. The person threatened to release those programs as well if ā€œmodestā€ ransoms are not paid.

ā€œA production vendor used by several major TV studios had its security compromised and the appropriate law enforcement authorities are involved.ā€

Seen in Australia on Netflix and Foxtel.

First time Iā€™ve seen a ransom, although not the first time hackers have stolen episodes before theyā€™ve aired or started streaming.

The most famous example would be the first three episodes of Game of Thrones Season 4 and 5, which were leaked online before the premiere of the first episode had even aired.
