I found this blog
interesting because I thoroughly enjoy Netflix, Hulu, etc., because they are a
great way to watch your favorite TV shows at your own convenience. In the article, the author questions why
Hulu, Netflix, DirectTV, and others consider airing and sometimes even air
television shows that were previously cancelled by the major networks, such as
Fox for example. After reading the blog,
I have to agree with the author because I can’t see how airing cancelled shows
would bring in any revenue for companies such as Netflix and Hulu. If certain shows were already cancelled due
unpopularity with the masses, why would these companies consider reviving them
by showing them again?
I liked this article, too, Andrew. It's interesting to consider why these sites would find it useful to pick up cancelled series--we'll be talking about it more as the semester goes on!
ReplyDeleteRemember that you can turn any link into a hyperlink that is part of the text of your post. If you highlight a word of your text, click on the "new post" toolbar where it says "link." A box will appear and you can just copy and paste the URL of the link there. Then you'll have hyperlinked text, which will make your post look cleaner!
Also--don't forget to label your posts with keywords. In this case, maybe "Hulu," "Netflix," "cancelled series" would be good choices.
Great job!
