What's Happening?
The popular TV series 'Supernatural,' which has been available on Netflix since 2012, is set to leave the platform on December 17. The show, featuring Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles as demon-hunting
siblings, ran for 15 seasons on the WB and later the CW. Netflix's licensing agreement allowed it to host all seasons for five years following the show's final season in 2020. As this period concludes, 'Supernatural' will transition to Peacock, where all 15 seasons will be available starting December 22. Fans who wish to own the series can purchase episodes on Prime Video, Apple TV, and FandangoNow.
Why It's Important?
The departure of 'Supernatural' from Netflix marks a significant shift in streaming availability for fans of the series. As streaming platforms compete for exclusive content, the move to Peacock highlights the ongoing battle for popular shows that can attract subscribers. This transition may influence viewer subscriptions, as fans might opt for Peacock to continue watching the series. Additionally, the availability of 'Supernatural' for purchase on various platforms offers viewers flexibility in how they access the show, reflecting broader trends in digital content consumption.
What's Next?
With 'Supernatural' moving to Peacock, viewers may consider subscribing to the service to continue watching the series. Peacock might leverage this acquisition to attract new subscribers, potentially offering promotional deals. Fans of the show may also explore purchasing episodes or seasons to ensure uninterrupted access. The shift could prompt Netflix to seek new content to fill the void left by 'Supernatural,' possibly leading to new licensing agreements or original productions.
