One report indicated the deal was finished the day before the actors’ contracts were scheduled to expire. They can renew them without having to get them to agree to a new one.

Happy News! And Expanse was rescued by Amazon.

Now some one needs to bring Dark Matter back.

Yay! I will have to subscribe to Netflix for this.

Now, if only someone picks up People of Earth, I will be even happier.

I forget, does Netflix do that “dump the entire season in one night” thing? Or is that Amazon Prime? Or both?

So happy Lucifer is continuing, it is one my few guilty pleasures. That and Gotham.

Both. Hulu is the one that experiments with releasing episodes once a week.

FUCK, yeah!

It’s only four bucks more to drop the ads. I’m poor, but I fucking hate ads.

Me too, much more than I like Lucifer (though I watch that too). That was a weird one. They already ordered the season. The season was already written and ready to shoot. Then they cancelled out of the blue.

I saw a followup interview with the show creators, saying there will be 10 episodes, with options for more. Production starts in August.

I don’t have Netflix yet, but this may provide me with the impetus to finally get it.
