Just one day after Netflix secured the streaming rights to Seinfeld in a deal reportedly worth more than $500 million, WarnerMedia’s HBO Max has gone one step further, acquiring the rights to The Big Bang Theory in a deal reportedly worth more than $1 billion.

The deal gives WarnerMedia’s HBO Max the exclusive domestic streaming rights for five years, according to The Hollywood Reporter. That means another streaming service could carry the show in global markets. The deal also extends the syndication deal between Warner Bros. Television and TBS through 2028.

    I can congratulate myself I chose to emigrate into a country where one gets a good quality national news service (among others) paying for it with the taxes.

    (see https://news.abc.net.au [abc.net.au] )

    (or, in other words, sucks to have only commercial news services)
