Many famous Fox titles, such as The Simpsons, Bob’s Burgers and Family Guy, will stay on Hulu for the next four years as Fox Entertainment and Disney have renewed the streaming deal for the United States, Comicbook.com reports. The news originally came from a Variety article released last Thursday morning. The exact financial details of this deal have not yet been revealed, but surely, these titles will be streamed on the platforms for a very long time.
According to Comicbook.com, in the previous deal, Fox Entertainment’s new episodes of each of the titles were going to be available on Hulu the day after their release on cable. It seems like it will be the same process in this new deal, which will keep helping with Fox’s viewing numbers since they don’t have a personal streaming service, as Disney does with its own Disney+.
“According to Comicbook.com, Hulu has rights to the following Fox titles: The Simpsons, with its previous seasons only available to stream on Disney+, Bob’s Burgers, Family Guy, Krapopolis, along with the two newest animated series, The Great North and Universal Basic Guys. The live-action shows available are The Masked Singer, The Floor, Gordon Ramsay’s Next Level Chef, Rescue: Hi-Surf and many others. Fox Entertainment CEO Rob Wade (Dancing with the Stars, The X Factor) shared a statement regarding the renewal of this deal, saying, “Our friends at Hulu and Disney Entertainment are exceptional partners, together driving ongoing mutual growth and strong results…Through our new agreement, we look forward to expanding on this impressive track record and collaboratively shaping the future of television in today’s shifting media landscape.”
Hulu general manager Lauren Tempest (Schitt’s Creek, The Bear) has also added her statement, as she stated via Comicbook.com: “The long-standing, valued partnership we have with Fox has cemented Hulu as the next-day streaming home for current Fox hits and out-of-season episodes of key Fox titles, and we’re excited to continue offering these scripted, unscripted and animated series to our subscribers. Our collective marketing efforts, which will continue with this new deal, have generated impressive results and helped viewers successfully find the shows they want to watch when they want to watch them.”
