... Excerpts from Netflix's Wednesday could move to rival Amazon ahead of season two renewal... after $8.5B MGM deal:


Where will it stream? Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer owns the rights to The Addams Family and its properties, so when Amazon Studios acquired the company last March for $8.5B, Wednesday seemingly came with it


However, a Netflix rep clarified to MailOnline on Monday: 'MGM make programs for any number of streamers and broadcasters and their acquisition by Amazon does not change that. The sale has no impact on existing rights deals'



... Excerpts from Netflix users embrace the delicious irony of ‘Wednesday’ potentially being snatched by Prime Video for season 2:


Fresh from scooping a pair of Golden Globe nominations for Best TV Series and Best Actress in the Musical or Comedy categories, the unstoppable Addams Family juggernaut that became one of the streaming service’s most popular original shows of all-time is undoubtedly one of the biggest properties Netflix has its disposal.

And yet, a juicy report offers that not only could rights issues be the reason behind the wait for an official renewal announcement, but Prime Video could swoop in and take Wednesday for itself in what would be the on-demand coup of the century without a shadow of a doubt.

MGM Television is one of the production companies involved in the series, with the studio having been acquired by Amazon in a multi-billion takeover. That means Jeff Bezos’ outfit has skin in the game when it comes to one of its rivals’ biggest success stories seeing as they own the rights to The Addams Family and its associated intellectual property, and the irony hasn’t been lost on the disgruntled subscriber base.
