Arrow, The Flash and more may be pulled from Netflix in new CW deal... http://www.polygon.com/2016/1/14/10...ore-may-be-pulled-from-netflix-in-new-cw-deal

CBS and Time Warner may be about to pull their CW shows from Netflix, making that Supernatural binge you've been putting off all the more important.According to Bloomberg, both networks want to launch a streaming service for The CW, charging subscribers $2-4 a month. The service would give subscribers the option to watch shows live as well as having access to an archive of old episodes and seasons.As it stands right now, Netflix owns the rights to past seasons of CW shows, like The Flash, Arrow and Jane the Virgin, while Hulu has the rights to current episodes.Although removing the shows from Netflix would take away a potentially large, new audience, stand-alone streaming services for individual channels seems to be where Time Warner is headed in general.

If in wrong place please move and I apologize!!

Arrow and Flash are not going anywhere-

New shows from the CW this season including the critically acclaimed “Crazy Ex-Girlfriend” and the much-anticipated upcoming “DC’s Legends of Tomorrow” would not be covered under the 2011 deal. New episodes of older shows, however, would still go to Netflix.

If Netflix and the CW do not come to terms on a new agreement that does not mean the current shows from the network will disappear from the streaming service anytime soon. Under the terms of the 2011 pact, Netflix has rights to those shows for many years, even after their initial run on the network has ended.

Good to hear that they cleared it up and hope it stays that way!!
