Deadline: Netflix has international rights to Picard series

[Red Panda]

No release date has been announced for the still-untitled Stewart series but it will be joining its sister show, Star Trek: Discovery, on CBS All Access in the U.S., Space Channel in Canada and Netflix everywhere else.

Thank fuck for that.

The state that very matter of factlly, but I want to know what their source is.

IIRC Netflix Australia did say last year they'll be getting future seasons when asked about CBS All Access expanding there.

 

[Red Panda]

Deadline always have the tea.

 

[rahullak]

Darn. I was hoping it would go to Amazon. Netflix is hella expensive in this part of the world.

 

[RedAlert]

Yeah. Thats good.
When can we get legally on the rest of the world, the Shorts Treks, by the way?

 

[Seven of Five]

Yeah I didn't even realise that we didn't have Short Treks until I went to watch it on release day. How rude!

This is excellent news anyway. Will they get the animated show as well?

 

[John Clark]

Glad to hear that

Not getting the shorts anywhere here (as far as I can see) was disappointing so it's nice to see we're getting this at least.

 

[Danlav05]

Yay (even though we will be lucky to have any of it before 2019 closes for business)

Not sure why CBS wouldn't partner up with Netflix Internationally. CBS isn't a brand or anything in Europe, not sure about Australia. If they're willing to spend a ton of money on a friggin Lost in Space reboot, I'm sure they'd partner with CBS to fund Trek shows. I wouldn't get a CBS sub in the UK, not sure what they bring - while Netflix I have all the STAR TREKs in one place.

I would assume any such CBS product would launch at the end of the current netflix/trek deal, and have all of trek, as well as the CBS back catalog of things from I Love Lucy to Big Bang Theory

Space Channel in Canada, hm?

I guess that confirms where the soundstages are being built.
