Disney Lending 14 Series to Netflix; Grey's Anatomy for Disney+/Hulu

The Disney+/Hulu one-app will get Grey's Anatomy when it launches in March 2024; Netflix gets 14 Disney titles for an 18-month window.


Proving once again that everything old is new again, the new "big thing" catching fire across the streaming landscape is "licensing" – and Deadline Hollywood is reporting that the next round will involve the combined Disney+/Hulu app launching in March 2024 and Netflix. First up, it looks like the full 19-season Grey's Anatomy run will be available when the new app launches (as well as on the standalone Hulu service). According to the deal, Netflix will play nice with Hulu, with the two now having co-exclusive domestic streaming rights to the hugely popular ABC series. But that's just part of a reported new domestic content deal between Disney Entertainment & Netflix that would see Disney license 14 popular library TV series to Netflix on a non-exclusive basis for an 18-month time period. Some of those titles include Lost, This Is Us, Archer, How I Met Your Mother, White Collar, and more – with the full list below.

Over the course of the 18-month deal, the series will still be available on the Disney platform they're currently on (Hulu, Disney+, ESPN+), as well as any other "third-parties," SVOD, AVOD, or linear that have licenses for them. As studios & streamers look to course-correct some pretty brutal financial times over the past few years (some unforeseen, others self-inflicted), expect to see a lot more licensing to programming going on between studios & streamers. As we mentioned, there are 14 series that will be spending some time over on Netflix as part of a new deal (when finalized) – here's a look at what they are:
