Employing a mix of research, deep reporting, and over 100 full-color data visualizations, Walt Hickey’s new book You Are What You Watch: How Movies and TV Affect Everything explores how movies, TV, and pop culture affect… well, everything, from what we watch to what we buy to how we live. The following is excerpted from the book, which is available now.
These Streaming Platforms Have the Most Delayed Shows and Movies
04.10.2023 - 15:51 / pcmag.com
After 146 days, a landmark deal is going to soon be signed by the Writers' Guild of America, after it got several concessions from the producers and moguls running Hollywood. The Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA) remains on strike as of this writing.
While a few shows get to go back to work now (like the night-time and daytime talk shows), plenty of productions will remain dark until the next set of negotiations can be finalized.
The big impact for viewers is the delay of movies to theaters, programming on network TV, and of course the content available on streaming services.
That got the folks at streaming guide JustWatch wondering: which streamer will have the biggest number of delays? The results above make it clear the bulk will be over at Netflix. Which is not much of a shock. Even after a year of pulling back on spending billions per year to make new content, Netflix is still the powerhouse of production, spewing out originals on a weekly basis. Many come from overseas, but Netflix still buys them or bankrolls them.
Apple TV+ is second most on the delay list, while Max, Prime Video, Disney, and Starz all come next with about 8% to 9% of the delays.
This may not take into consideration the outright cancellations of some shows blamed on the strikes. Some series never got off the ground, like Sam Esmail's Apple TV+ show Metropolis. You won't be seeing further seasons of The Peripheral or A League of Their Own on Prime Video, nor Pitch Perfect: Bumper in Berlin on Peacock. Sorry, Flula Borg fans.
Below is a non-comprehensive list of major shows on the streaming services that will be delayed. Most if not all of these should have come out by now or at least in 2024. Expect them well over a year from now if not well into 2025. (Thanks to Deadline, What's On Netflix, the LA Times, and Wikipedia.) This is just the TV shows and doesn't even take into consideration movies, nor the network shows like Night Court and Abbott Elementary that sometimes fill up the streamers (like Hulu).
