Disney-owned Hulu will take over streaming all six seasons of the popular comedy series “Schitt’s Creek” from Netflix, beginning Oct. 3. The series, which co-stars Eugene Levy, Catherine O’Hara, Daniel Levy and Annie Murphy, has become a hit for Netflix since landing on the platform in 2017 through a distribution agreement.
The series regularly ranks among Nielsen’s top 10 acquired streaming shows on a weekly basis. In 2020, the series won seven Primetime Emmy awards, including Outstanding Comedy Series.
“Based on the number of ‘Schitt’s Creek’ GIFs we Slack every day, it’s no surprise that we are absolutely thrilled to welcome … the wonderfully unique residents of [the show] to Hulu,” Joe Earley, president of Hulu, said in a statement. “We can’t wait to share the award-winning, blisteringly-funny, yet heartwarming series and characters with our subscribers. We know they’ll fit in nicely.”
