Netflix set to loose "The Office" and "Friends" in the future

If your a Netflix subscriber and a big fan of one of their most viewed series “The office” and “Friends” unfortunately you might not have access to them in the near future.

The rights to “The office” is owned by NBC which is set to launch it’s own streaming service in the year 2021.

Warner Bros is also planning to do the same which might mean no more friends for Netflix subscribers.

We're sad that NBC has decided to take The Office back for its own streaming platform — but members can binge watch the show to their hearts' content ad-free on Netflix until January 2021

The two shows have had an impact on audiences all around the world.

“The office” is an extremely hilarious comedy show revolving around the lives of people who work in an office setting based on the British series which has a similar name. This series had a span of 9 seasons and aired it’s the final episode in 2013.

With the rise of studio streaming services, Netflix might lose more than just these two. Disney is set to release it’s own streaming service Disney+ as well which means they might take “Captain America: Civil War” and “Doctor Strange.”

So what does that mean for Netflix subscribers? In the long, you might want to start viewing more than just your regular shows if you have an issue with being subscribed to more than one streaming service.

Fortunately for them, there is still a variety to choose from with great shows such as “Stranger Things” and “Money Heist” being Netflix originals you’ll be fine.

This is bad news for Netflix cause their about to lose customers who subscribed to the service primarily to watch both shows. They could either increase the subscription price, make a show of the same calibre or get more subscribes either one.

Lucky for Netflix subscribers they have a bit of time to cherish both shows. If you’ve never had the chance to watch either one now’s a good time to start.
