And shows like Arrested Development, Firefly, and Jericho. Maybe not those shows in particular given the amount of time that's passed, but, the next time it happens.
- nitrogen 15y agoI think Kings would be an excellent candidate for this approach, apart from the $x million per episode production costs... I watched all the episodes on Hulu, why not finish the show on Hulu?
- ssharp 15y agoApart from the entire reason why Hulu wouldn't get into this business, why not? If you approach it that way, it's more of a fantasy than a reality. I'm not seeing a compelling reason why Hulu/Netflix would be able to produce million dollar+ episodes and make money off of them.
- jeffool 15y agoI'm not arguing for Kings mind you, but I will say that it seems all publishers want to become content owners. And if the current content owners don't want to run the site, I find it difficult to imagine they're going to stay with it forever. The roles of creators and broadcasters are blurring. Not because of a squeezing from CEOs either to turn more a profit, but the necessity of the Internet. If I owned Crackle, Rev3, YT, Netflix, or Hulu? You can bet I'd be looking to pick up properties with a built-in following.
