@tmp3 - HBO may have friends but Netflix still has The Office and it's primarily the reason I still have Netflix at this point. Good try HBO. Disney+ will be my next subscription service.

@SonOfAGif - Netflix only has the Office for 2 more years, then its going to NBC. Netflix is about to lose the VAST majority of its viewers with Friends and the Office.

I've been streaming through my Roku box for about 4 years now I think. Hulu is one of my main channels...even pay for the no commercials. That being said, the channel has gone down the toilet since they changed the UI last year. Its horrible trying to navigate that site now.

This should've been the plan for DCU at the start. DCU really was a stupid idea badly managed. Now at least DC fans will have all DC content AND their DCCW content in one place.

Was nice to see the sophomore and in production Batwoman teasers featured here, also caught Doom Patrol from DC Universe and even the also in production Katy Keene spin-off from Riverdale. They are serious about including a LOT of stuff here.

Hopefully they can revive Swamp Thing here eventually, even if the wait has to be of one year.

Netflix, Hulu, Amazon, Apple TV+, Disney+ and I guess Epix too because that is where Pennyworth will stream but this one must be the underdog of all streaming services.

The Office is leaving Netflix and now also Friends in one year, wow.

@NinnesMBC - I was reading a financial piece this morning about how the time to sell their stock is now. I knew about Friends and the Office but the list of what their losing is insane.
