We've had those types of accomodations for more than 15 years in Hollywood.
I'm not sure of how long they've been available out here in the Midwest, or In SE Texas where I spent last year
This is false. Due to FCC regulations, Over-The-Air broadcast networks will never compete with cable or streaming services due to content, violence, sex and language restrictions.
I only see ads for the shows if I watch a game. It could be how they're marketing them. Making them appear more like a show on basic cable. They will as they have always pressed their boundaries as far as content. Without getting this kicked over to DC, I wonder how long they push their limits before they say **** it, and just pay the fines with how much ratings would skyrocket at least for awhile, or if society's standards can get to a point where either few are offended. Or don't care about such trivial issues
That's because CBS has created their own streaming service, which isn't regulated like OTA broadcast networks by the FCC. All of the CBS All Access programming is available via Netflix X-US.
Steal away? Netflix licenses content that they don't create from the Original Content Creator/owners of the IP.
The Netflix "End Game" is create enough original content to lure subscribers and not so much about licensing other big name content. As of 2019, all of the Disney content moves to Disney's new streaming service.
Yes, I misspoke or mistyped. I don't follow it closely enough. But what I've heard is that for a long time Netflix snatched up what a lot of other companies were passing up. Once they were successful enough they started outbidding the same companies. You'll be able to answer when or if it has happened as to if they're in the same league and people will or are just choosing to work with them
I don't even understand what you're stating here.
When I had Prime I could rent everything from Netflix like House of Cards or OITNB only a season behind. Similar to YouTube offering the same deal
Are you kidding me? Reality TV is going NO WHERE. As for typical Broadcast Network fare, networks will continue to air those types of shows as long as there's a huge audience (i.e., Advertising dollars).
