DOCTOR WHO LEAVES NETFLIX US
Streaming service is about to EX-TERM-I-NATE the Time Lord.
Doctor Who fans in the US craving for the return of the Time Lord at Christmas soon won’t be able to use Netflix to feed their addiction.
Netflix broke the news on Twitter today (January 26) that Doctor Who is leaving its streaming service as of February 1.
The move likely means US fans will be getting a lot of use from their Doctor Who DVDs and Blu-rays – since the sci-fi show won’t return until Christmas.Following the festive special, Peter Capaldi will be back in the TARDIS for long-time showrunner Steven Moffat’s final series as Doctor Who’s boss.
In the US, BBC America has the rights to first-run episodes of the 53-year-old science fiction franchise.
