Re: Tubi -- ad supported streaming service
Which is why this dumbass "live only, and only during working hours" plan is so infuriating. It's as if they're intentionally trying to get as little value as possible out of their streaming license. The other possibility is HBO hates this show (or Whedon) so much they imposed these conditions on Tubi.

Including:
Scarecrow and Mrs King
Spenser for Hire
A man called Hawk, spin-off of Spenser for Hire
Third Watch
Eight is Enough

Has Get Smart(original 1960s series) ever been on a streaming service?

I suspect the former, but given The Nevers, thought I would ask.

Re: Tubi -- ad supported streaming service
I remember when Spenser for Hire aired on ABC in the mid 80s at around 10pm. I was in 6th grade and was forced to be in bed by 10pm for school, so I never had the chance to see it. I know it's probably dated as hell and is like any 80s PI show, but I was always curious about it as I got older. Robert Urich was always likeable to me. I don't know maybe I'll check it out on Tubi and see how horrible the commercial load is.

I went looking for Eight is Enough when Adam Rich died so I might at least sample that again. I watched all of Spenser for at least the first few seasons. I also liked Kate Jackson on Charlie's Angels as a kid but never watched Scarecrow so who knows... Probably won't really have time to watch any of this.
The Nevers thing is beyond irritating, but I guess I'll just have to buy it when it gets reasonably priced on Vudu, assuming they put it for sale.

The old TNT show Southland is also on Tubi. It was on HBO Max, but I guess it was part of the cuts.
If anything, WBD sold off stuff that's been out for years that probably most aren't watching anymore.

Are we not going to talk about the nightmare fuel Superbowl rabbit hole ads, or the "grandpa yelling at the kids for touching the remote" ad?
Guess they had some money to burn. I wonder how profitable this is for them.

The Super Bowl was on Fox, and Fox owns Tubi - they probably had some spots to fill.
That said, they're claiming Tubi has 61m+ monthly active users, which sounds sus but

I haven't seen the ads but my co-worker who was watching the Super Bowl had have heard of the service and was impressed with the commercials.

Fox’s ad-supported streamer Tubi has struck a deal with Warner Bros. Discovery to stream DC movies including “The Batman,” “Suicide Squad,” “Black Adam,” “Wonder Woman” and “Aquaman,” as well as superhero series “Batwoman,” “Gotham” and “Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman.”
The above film titles, as well as “Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn),” “Green Lantern” and “Wonder Woman 1984,” will hit Tubi’s on-demand lineup in 2024.
Available as of Tuesday are “Batman,” “Batman Returns” and “Batman Forever,” as well as “Superman: The Movie” and “Superman II,” and TV series “Batwoman,” “Gotham” and “Krypton.”
“Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman” will begin streaming Dec. 31.

Re: Tubi -- ad supported streaming service
I thought about it, and ultimately shrugged.
It's just kind of the way the forums are now. Less urgency, enthusiasm, and activity. That's the way of the world.
I do like the new color scheme.
