FX Networks Is Moved To Hulu In 2020

[RAMROD 96,189]

Disney is using FX to make sure people doesn't forget about Hulu.

FX on Hulu will launch in March 2020 and feature every season of many originals that aired on FX over the past 17 years. FX Productions will also produce other original scripted series for Hulu. Devs will launch on Hulu in March, followed by new episodes of FXX's Dave and Cake, FX's Breeders and season four of Better Things, with those episodes arriving the next morning after their linear debut. 

Disney CEO Bob Iger announced FX on Hulu during the company's earnings call on Thursday, saying the linear network known for quality hits like The Americans and American Crime Story will have a "huge" presence on the streamer. The exec also announced that Fox Searchlight will be producing for Hulu. Searchlight currently has an output deal with HBO that runs for a few more years but, per Iger, is likely to move to Hulu, though nothing official has been determined. 

As part of FX on Hulu, FX's library of more than 40 original series will stream on the Disney-owned platform. All current series will be available to stream on Hulu the day after they air on FX. Library titles with pre-existing SVOD deals with Netflix and Amazon will remain until those deals expire, at which point the programming will move to Hulu. Any exclusive deals that have been made for the life of a series at other streamers will not be impacted.

Here are the current and legacy FX shows that will stream on Hulu: American Horror Story, Archer, Atlanta, Better Things, Cake, Fargo, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Mayans, Mr Inbetween, Snowfall, Taboo, The Weekly, What We Do in the Shadows, Baskets, The Bastard Executioner, The Comedians, Fosse/Verdon, The League, Legion, Legit, Man Seeking Woman, Married, The Riches, Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll, The Strain, Sons of Anarchy, Trust, Tyrant, You're the Worst and Wilfred.

Disney+ will be home to scores of family-friendly library titles as well as Marvel and Star Wars fare. Hulu, meanwhile, will serve as the home for more adult fare, including Fox acquisitions like Deadpool. A prime example is the High Fidelity reboot that was originally developed for Disney+ but has been moved to Hulu, where it will air as an original.

As Disney will introduce Disney+, ESPN, and Hulu bundle on D+ launch day, this move is definitely done also for that purpose. Still, it will only cost $12.99/month,  which is pretty comparable to the cost of other streaming services like Netflix and Amazon Prime Video

So FX will still be on actual television correct? They'll just have their catalog on Hulu?

At least I won’t have to wait for DVD release to rewatch AHS9 now  

inb4 this happens after AHS9 is released on dvd 

this is cool though. I was wondering what was gonna happen to Hulu after the big ol Fox purchase and this makes sense. Disney + = Frozen & Hulu = Colton Haynes and Billy Eichner sex scene
