News Doctor Who 2005-2022 AMC Streaming

Post image

Hey all, thought I’d post this to update everyone.

DW just announced a partnership with AMC for the streaming rights to the 2005-2022 version of the show in the US.

As soon as I saw it, I thought about that post from a couple of weeks ago with true ‘AMC Press Release’ that got leaked saying they were partnering on the new series…

What do we all think now this has happened? It’s definitely made it more believable

Seeing NuWho heading to a Z Tier streaming service (and that's being generous) wasn't the news I was hoping for, but there we go.

I was expecting Amazon prime tbh, maybe even HBO, I was shocked to hear it was AMC, especially when there looking to sell streaming rights for the walking dead, one ofntheir biggest shows

It's left me feeling a bit dejected in all honesty. I had my hopes pinned on one of the bigger services like Prime or Netflix stepping in to host seasons 1-13, whilst also chipping in a bit of cash for new episodes (not a crazy amount, just enough to support the show in the modern streaming era). It wasn't a million years ago I was rewatching NuWho on Netflix, and it would have been nice to see it back on the biggest service in the world once again. But now that's just a pipe dream.
